the Church Wednesday Night
spccfnl Music to he Rendered.

The movement to celebrate In some
appropriate manner the fiftieth anniver-
sary or Dr. Hoge's pastorate Of the Sc
cond Presbyterian church originated with
the Ladies' Benevolent Society Of the
church, and first took definite shape In
April last.
IL was decided then by the society TO
raise a purse to be presented TO the
beloved pastor on the anniversary. to is
sue a handsome and durable souvenir Of
the event. and have some public demon
stration. After giving the matter of the
souvenir careful consideration spoon
was determined upon. The mement0-
wrought bo. in gold and in silver-bears
on the diverse Of the handle q high
relief bust portraiture OF Dr. Hoge,
with the Inscription. REV. Moses u.
Hoge, lSi5-lS95," and on the reverse the
words, Second Presbyterian Church"
The die was made by Tiffany, and num-
bers Of the spoons have been purchased
by DR.. Hogc's admirers without as well
as within his congregation.
The question OF the details Of the pub
lie demonstration was not settled, how
ever, until few weeks ago. Several
programmes were suggested, and among
them one similar TO that with which the
forty-fifth anniversary OF Dr. Hoge's pas
torate was observed.
THE FORMEJI CELEBRATION.
That celebration took place Thursday

on his return from England he delivered
an address at an anniversary Of the Vir-
ginia bibie Society In St. Paurs church
10 one OF the largest audiences ever as
sembied In that spacious building.
Often Dr. Hoge preached 10 the SOL
diers when II was momentarily expected
that he would be interrupted by the
actual clash OF arms, and he would be
thrown into the midst OF the fray. once
he preached on the eve Of battle 10 the
whole OF ID. III. Hilrs division. HIS mini
strations to the soldiers In the camp, the
hospital. and the field were untiring.
INTEREST IN THE VETERANS.
Since the war DIR. Hoge has taken
deep interest In every movement tending
TO amelorate the condition of wounded
and disabled Confederate veterans. He
has always been a strong friend OF Lee
Camp Soldiers Home, and. by common
consent, has come to be looked upon as
the chaDlain OF that institution. he
preached the first sermon In the Home
chapel, buried the first veteran who died
AT the Home, and has officiated 1T nearly
every funeral that has taken place there
since. The veterans are devoted 10 him.
and he Is at their call night or day, IN
fair weather or in foul. Time and again
has he stood upon Gettysburg Hll. In
Hollywood. with the summers sun or the
winters storm beating down upon ms
bare head, as he performed the last sad
Office for one OF the veterans. Twice du-
ring the late severe spell Of weather Dr'
Hoge conducted the burial services over
inmates OF the Home. when the snow
was ankle-deep. This writer has oiteh
thought that there could be no grander
or more pathetic theme for an artist tnan

A Poetic Tribute.

CThe hftieth anniversary of Rev. Moses
ID. Hoge's ministry before the Second
Presbyterian church at Richmond, Va.)
For fifty years this man Of God
Has stood before his congregation.
Teaching the simple Gospel truth
From Genesis to Revelation.
He came here in manhood's prime,
And how faithful has he been
Showing his people paths of light
From the dark depths of sin.
Many hearts he has linked,
In all these fifty years;
Many prayers for such been given,
His blessings and his tears.
He has seen them from the altar go,
Start on the highway of life.
The man so full OF promises
With the loving and trusting wife.
To this same church the mourner has
come,
All bowed with bitter grief:
The chastening-rOd has been so great,
Where could there be relief?
a loved one has been called away,
a father. mother. sister. son.
Yet would this reverent man of God
Point to the comforting one.
lie wears the impress on his face
OF dignity and power,
And whatever the occasion may be
lie always holds the hour:
His fame ends not upon our soil,
lie Is known In foreign lands,
And loved and reverenced there
As his worth and truth commands.
His IL large. expansive heart,
lie stops not in his congregation;
But loves 10 take the masses In,
Whatever their relation.
He believes in unity OF souls,
or breaking the barriers down,
And seeing the people OF every creed
stand on one common ground.
And in his anniversary
He shows the loving heart.
Let all the people come. he says,
And every one take part.
lie knows In the great beyond,
II their robes are pure and white,
There will be no difference made
BY Him who metes out right.
And methinks beyond the river,
When he gathers with his fold.
That his crown will be resplendent
OF the purest, brightest gold
He has worked so for the Master.
His task has been so feryent,
That the plaudit OF Heaven will be:
Wei done, good and faithful servant.
