DIR. Harry c. Sherman. the New Musi-
cal Conductor, Introduced.
The Choral Society met last night at
Typographical Hall, but, as the books of
Samson and Delilah," the oratorio with
which it is proposed to close the season,
had not arrived. no rehearsal was had.
President w. H. Daniel made the an
nouncement of the failure of the books to
arrive and then Mr. Eugene Stevens gave
a statement Of the result of the two recent
performances of the Redemption" show
ing a constructive profit of about 5000.
Treasurer Meade distributed the honor
arium" to the soloists in the "Redemp-
tion,' and the vice president, DR.. Frank
t. Howe, made an address complimenting
the society on its excellent work at the
recent performances, expressing satisfac-
ton at the effort of the soloists, and urg-
eXeruon in the endeavor to secure the
guarantee fund necessary to produce

be guaranteed by the time fixed. DIR.

in the power and authority given him to
commit Tolman for failing or refusing to
obey the order of the court, and Tolman
would have to go back to Jail to await the
action Of Judge Hagner or until the Court
of Appeals had held that Judge Hagner
had acted without warrant of law.
Mr.. Davis, counsel for Tolman, noted an
appeal from the decision of Judge Nc
Comas, and asked that Tolman be admit

COLUMBIA CABLE RUNNING.
The Entire Equipment Will Be Rapid
~ Put i'm Operation.

~ 1ul IN OVeEdAb1Ous
The cable cars on the Columbia railway
began to run yesterday from 18th street
and Boundary northeast to New York
avenue and 18th street northwest, and in
a short while the entire equipment will be
put in operation and the horse cars, which
are still being used in conjunction with the
new cars, be taken of. The first regular
car left the power house at 2:3O o'clock
and carried the directors of the company
and Chief Engineer Upton and Superin-
tendent Boetler over the system. The trip
was eminently satisfactory to all con-
cerned. The road, by reason of the almost
straight line in which it runs from one end
10 the other, and the absence of anything
IKE heavy grades. is one of the easiest
cable concerns to run in the country, and
there will be only one gravity run in its
entire length. This will be where the grip
drops the cable to cross the conduit of the
It'll street line. The speed at which cars
will be run-after everything gets in smooth
operation will be nine miles an hour. The
car used is built on the combination pat
tern, the gripman standing on the front
platform and managing his grip and brake
machinery by means of wheels instead of
levers. The rest of the car is devoted to
passengers, and the length of each is
thirty feet.

GODS FIRST TEMPLE.
Three Largely Attended Services at Old
Orchard.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.l

Old Orchard, August S5.-This place
is, in a religious sense, still feeling the
effect of the remarkable series of meet
ings conducted by DR.. Simpson. 1t had
been thought that there would be no
services at the campground, but the To-
cal Methodist church decided today that
it would be wise to. adjourn to meet un-
der the trees, and there were three very
largely attended services.
Rev. DR.. Foster of Boston, preached at
the morning and again at the evening
service, speaking in very interesting
way of Sunday school work.
The afternoon service called out a
crowd. Rev. L Luce of Portland, off
cred prayer, and Rev. Mr.. Chase, took
part in the services.
Rev. H. e. F'rohock, pastor of the Foss
street Methodist Episcopal church of Bid
deford, preached, his subject being, lis
This Christian Nation?' He said that
the Sunday papers and excursions, the
great number of crimes committed, the
too general Indifference to religion, the
lobby at Washington, and the widely
spread liquor traffic. might be counted
as against that theory, but he showed
that the overwhelming mass OF evidence
is on the other side of the question. His
address was eloquent and was listened
to with the closest attention.

CROWDED OLD ORCHARD.
Twelve Hundred Sir Knights and 10000
Other People at the Beach.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.l

Old Orchard, August 25.-At least 1900
visitors from the South and east came
here in special trains today, and it is
estimated that atlleast ten thousand 9th
ers were here. There were special trains
from Island Pond, VT, down, and from
many points along the Boston and Maine
and the Maine Central.
The beach presented very brilliant
and lively appearance, and there were
many bathers, nearly all the western
people trying the water. They seemed
to regard 1t as their, duty to take dip
in the ocean, and then to try the HOLSTERS
of Maine Everything was pleasan tly in
formal, and the Knights Templar evident
" greatly enjoyed their first day in a
New England State. Not an arrest rest " was as
that people came in such great numbers
to the beach.
