AFTER THE CENTENNIAL.

Review Of the Results of the Baptist An.
nlversary- Many Of the Distinguished
Visitors Have Left for Their Homes.
The majority of the large number Of
ministers and prominent laymen who
attended the Baptist centennial SER
vices have returned to their respective
homes. Rev. DR.. George c. Lorimer,
D. D., who, during his stay in the city
was the guest of Rev. Warren c.
Partridge, returned to Boston, by the
midnight train Wednesday, Rev. DR..
w. p. Hellings, of Omaha, Neb., has,
however, been induced to remain over
another Sunday and will attract large
audiences at the Penn Avenue church
next Sunday morning and evening.
To a Tribune reporter Rev. Warren
G.. Partridge spoke as follows concern
ing the recent centennial anniversary:
81 believe that the benefits Of the Bap-
tist anniversary just held In this city
are beyond calculation. 1t is of in
estimable value to study history, and
especially the history of the nineteenth
century. Biography is history teach
ing, by example, and it Is an inspiration
for this generation to study the sturdy
characters and achleVements OF such
heroic men of the past as Rev. William
Bishop and Elder Mott. Such cele-
bration also cultivates esprit de corps
in a denomination. 1t gives breadth
| and comprehensiveness to the religious
bodies; 1t is well to rise in thought and
sympathy above the individual local
church and contemplate the broad
sweep of a denominations life having
membership in the United States OF
over 3.5O0,OO0 communicates.
ut has also stimulated a love fol
religious liberty, and the distinctive
principles for which we stand. Oul
people must have been proud to have
been called Baptists when they listened
to the scholarly, eloquent, progressive
tolerant and liberal addresses of sucl
pulpit orators as Rev. DR.. Judson, Of
New York, and DR.. Lorimer, of Bos

II Aroused Much Enthusiasm at the Acad
envy of Music Last Night,

A very enthusiastic audience saw "Old
Glory" produced at the Academy of Music
last night by an exceedingly capable and
well balanced company. The scene of the
story is laid in Chill during the insurrec-
ton that occurred there only short time
ago.
The theme offers opportunities for many
thrilling climaxes which are taken ad-
vantage of to the fullest extent by the
author, Charles 7. Vincent. There is also
fine scenic display, the third act clos
ing by the cruiser Baltimore being saved
from destruction on the rocks by the
heroic conduct of the daughter of the
American consul.
Incidentally to the plot John A. Cole

with Geo. Thatcher for a number of years,

stined to be successful. 1t will be pro-

Difference of Opinion Between the Two
Bodies WIN Necessltate Conference.
Associated Charities Agent Will Be
Asked Questions-OtherM Matter.

Select council met in regular session
last evening and acted upon several
measures of Importance. The common
council was to have met but a quorum
was not present. Among the business
of the select body was a Letter from
City Engineer Phillips differing from
the special examiner of the bridge plans,
Mr.. Larue, in that gentlemans opin-
ion that the plans were incomplete in
detail. Bills aggregating S6S con-
tracted by Mrs. w. b. Duggan for car
riage hire in connection with her work
as Associated Charities agent, were
ignored and special committee APP
pointed for investigation. The session
was an extended one and the volume
Of business transacted was unusually
large.
The following letter from the city
engineer is self-eXplanatory:
Owing to the unavoidable delays al
ready experienced in the preparations of
plans for the Roaring brook and Linden
street bridges and also taking into cons H.
Grafton the desire and anxiety Of the cit
liens in general 10 have the proposed
bridges constructed at the earliest posi-
BILE moment, | have to state that l have
submitted to the changes suggested by
Mr.. Larue, the expert engineer appointed
to examine and pass upon the plans FOL
same.
There is no doubt in my mind of there
being several unnecessary changes made
in the plans which viii increase to some
extent the cost of the structures. The
changes, to my mind, were unnecessary
because the plans in their former condi
tion were entirely adequate for the pur
poses for which they were intended. Bu
as before stated rather than risk fur
! ther delay, all changes are submitted to
Very respectfully,

WHO STOLE THE WATCH?
Miss Anna Price Accuses Little Katie
Rogers of the Deed.


Rogers Of the Deed.
Miss Anna Price, Of Capouse avenue,
discovered yesterday that her watch
had been stolen. She suspected IL
year-old Katie Rogers of the theft and
accused her of the deed. The little girl,
however, steadfastly denied being the
culprit.
Alderman Fitzslmmons was ap-
pealed to and he issued warrant Yes

still the watch was not found. The only
evidenced against the little girl was
that she had in her possession q little
brown" toying that was wont to dan

wear. The case was settled upon the
promise of the little girls mother to
get the watch If her daughter stole It,
and return 1t to the owner.
