Poli's Theater in Splendid Shape-Man- ager Poli Entertaips Representatives of the Newspapers.

aCer Poli Entertains Representatives of
 the Newspapers.
 The members of the press were roy ally entertained on Saturday evening by Manager Poli at his theater. The lobby was brilliantly Illuminated, and under the soft incandescent light it showed to great advantage. The lobby lis nearly new. The paneling has a sil- yer tracing on the border circumscrib- ing delicate tracery of flowers. Pass ing from the lobby into the auditorium of the theater the same designs which are carried out in the lobby are con- tinued, the whole making beautifully artistic effect.
 On reaching the auditorium the house was found to be brilliantly illu- nina ted, the same as if performance was in progress The different scenes painted during the summer by Profess sor De La Harpe of Brooklyn were shown in succession. First was exhib- |ited the olio scene with tormentors and flies. The scene portrayed here is cop | jed from the borders of Lake Whitney, being the very scene in which a local subject is taken. Next was shown a cottage scene and afterwards in success sion a wood scene, a street scene. a palace scene, a moonlight water scene and severa, others, making Zen com plete and entire sets of scenery. | The lighting arrangements for the stage are of the latest and most ap- proved description. For the footlights there is a triple row of incandescent electric lights, one row containing col ored globes. Midway on the stage on either side is a lamp whose rays may be thrown directly upon the person on the
 stage, which, combined with another
 lamp of the same sort located in the
 balcony. makes it possible to create the
 most brilliant stage effects. These lamps are a recent European invention and were put in by the Mayrhofer Electric
 Stage Lighting company of New York
 They do away entirely with the use of
 the old calcium lights, thus ayerting all l danger from fire.
 Four electric fans have been put in, two on either side of the auditorium
 liking it possible at all times to send a
 current of cool air through the entire | theater.
 | Many people passed in and out the Hobby. and refreshments were served tc
 the members of the press and a few in. vited guests.

REV, MIR. SAMSON SPOKE.
4 LARGE CONGREGATION HEARD HIM M4TC1LVARY BAPTIST CHURCH.

Welcomed Back by Ills old Parishioners---
 Christian Loye Comes From Pure
 Heart-The Greatest of the Graces-A
 Fine Sermon-ro Preach Next Sunday.
 At Calvary Baptist church yesterday morning Rev. Thomas s. Samson, a former pastor now of the Free street Baptist church In Portland. Me, preached from the text, first Timothy 1-5: ''Now the end of the command ment is charity out of a pure heart and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned." MT. Samson said that the Apostle John writes of faith, while Paul writes of love. One has only to read superflcially the writings of John to find faith in the Lord Jesus discussed. In the epistles of Paul love is always associated with faith. There is no
 more full analysis of love than Paul has written. He tells us of the faith which is helped by love, and that love is the greatest of graces. In word the end and aim of the gospel of Jesus | is love. This is an act of the emotions, and 1t has it's seat in the heart. Tn this it differs from hope and faith, which are intellectual acts from the unity | of the established law of God Faith | is longing, desire or a feeling, which prompts us to seek the object of ex- pectation. It cannot perhaps be said | that the intellect is wholly unconcerned
 in love. Love is unlike hope in that it | has for its object not our own personal self, but someone outside ourselves. Love is the offspring of faith and hope, and when these two cause love, the lat
 ter reacts and strengthens the former | two. Practically this grace of Chris
 tian love exerts a greater influence than its sister graces. Christian love | is the leading, the uppermost loop in | the chain, which binds the heart, of
 man to the throne of God. It is the attachment of one soul for another, | Is a spiritual act, and has a spiritual | object. Knowledge of God is that which makes manifest to us the like ness of God, and man has love of l God not alone from the attributes of l his soul. It is not surprising that the new testament put such emphasis on the life of Christ. When we love God through Christ we are to believe that Christ was God manifest in the flesh The Christian doctrine is that we are to love God as He Is and men as they are. Christian love Is to issue from g pure heart and from a good conscience I which is the souls perceptive power Conscience instructs us between righ and wrong, and leads us to duty.
 l Now we can see what love has tt do in promoting Christian faith. I God so loved us that He gave His only son. then how much ought we to low | Him. It is not possible for Christian love to respond to other than spiritua love. The love of Christ was the great
 est attribute of His character. Th' end of the commandment is then trul,
 charity out of pure heart and iron
 a good conscience.
 The church was well filled with Rev Mr. Samson's old parishioners ant
 friends, and at the close of the ser
 vices all went to the altar to shak
 his hand and welcome him back. H

History for Young vermonters.

The Tuttle company of Rutland has in
press for early publication book entitled
the "Vermont Primary Historical Reader"
which has been prepared with special
reference to meeting the requirement
enacted by the legislature of 1894 that all
pupils in the public schools of the state
"shall receive special instruction in the
geography, history, constitution and prin-
ciples of the government of Vermont"
The book has been prepared especially for
the younger pupils and for use as a reading
book to supplement the regular reading
lessons. 1t aims to convey historical in
formation in an entertaining way, incul-
eating at the same time lessons of loyalty
and patriotism. The suggestion has been
wisely made that school directors and SUI
perintendents ought to wait until they
have seen this book before hastily accepting
some other of less merit, published outside
the state. Windham county has generous
and proper representatives in its pages in
an account of the early settlement at Fort
Dummer, with a drawing of the old fort
reproduced from the pages of The Phoenix,
an account of the release of Leonard
Spauding of Dummerston from Jail by the
people of that town, and an account of the
Westminster massacre.

THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
A Western Cyclone.
100 People Killed i'm Northern Iowa
and Many Buildings Wrecked---the
Storm In other Places.

The tornado Friday killed fully 100 persons in
northern Iowa 1t began one mile northwest of
lreton and travelled northeast a distance of IS
miles. II was about mile wide and swept ev.
everything in its path Six schoolhouses were
blown to pieces and three teachers and many
school children killed. Twenty. seven farm
houses were demolished and hundreds of animals
Killed. The storm jumped 30 miles north to Sib-
ley, but the damage i'm that neighbothoOd is light
Half score of prosperous little ,hamlets were
touched by the flying storm and hundreds of
farms laid waste. The territory devastated is as
rich and populous as any in Iowa.
Many Of the school children were carried from
a quarter to half mile before they were dropped
Two little daughters of John Roster, a farmer
near Sioux Centre, were picked up as they were
leaving the schoohouse and dashed into a wire
fence and both killed.
The tornado was followed by furious wind
and rain storm. Telegraph lines are down
throughout the county and railroad tracks are
washed out in many places The fatalities in the
various towns are estimated: Sioux Centre. 50
dead; Perkins, 40 dead; Doom, 10 dead Sibley
five dead 1t is feared that returns from the
more remote places will increase the death list
Many deaths by lightning are reproted. Numer.
GUS victims were found lodged in the trees. where
they had been hurled by the storm, and so ser.
ously injured that death is expected. Horses,
cattle and vehicles were hurled through the air
IKE chair. Where residences had stood nothing
but a cellar hole remains.
The cyclone also hit some parts of South Dako-
ia. In West Sioux Falls property worth $4,000
was destroyed, and in many other towns farm
buildings were wrecked. In Wisconsin there was
severe electrical storm. and fatalities are re-
ported at Neillsvle, seymour and Killnerville.
