What Nate Salisbury Says of the
Audiences ut Black America.
''No such chorus was ever heard before
anywhere in this world The speaker
was Nate Salisbury, the proprietor of
BLACK America" and he was seated back

His reference was to the immense volume
of sound made by the six hundred negro
performers, who were singing Roll, Jor-
dan, ROLL
There Is not trained voice among
them," continued Mr.. Salisbury, land yet
they sing in perfect harmony, and with
an earnestness that can be brought out of
no similar body of white people. Since I
have been handling this entertainment 1
have met the best people in every city and
they have expressed to me their surprise
and qualification at the work produced by
these negroes. In some of the larger cities
the newspapers have taken up the subject
and treated it from an chronological point
OF view. 1t has been revelation to them,
the precision and perfection of the work
performed by these people of color. This

preston that Black America was a per-
formance peculiarly for the negro race.
but the people are fast learning that 1t is
an entertainment worthy the attention of
the best and most cultivated, and that 1t
has an educational, as well as an amusing
feature. At first. you know, the per-

Services to He Held Tomorrow in the
RECONSTRUCTED Church.
For the past three months there has been
force of workmen constantly employed
upon St Stephens Catholic Church, which
is located at the corner of Pennsylvania
avenue and 25th street. Five thousand dol
lars has been expended in carrying out the
plans of the architect, and of this amount
portion has already been raised. while the
fair, which the members of the parish are
scon to open, is expected to net large sum.
Tomorrow the services will be those Suita-
bic for a reopening, with the addition In
this case that the Rev. DIR. D. J. Stafford is
to deliver the sermon. The choir is to rem
der an unusually impressive musical pro-
gram.
The improvements are principally in and
around the sanctuary at the south end of
the edifice. The space formerly used for
the sacrsty is now occupied by two small
chapels. The sacristy rooms have been
tearing out the rear wall and by extending
it back some distance further. The rooms
occupy the same relative position that they
did formerly. Both the large center chapel
ard the ones to its right and left are
ached over at the top by ornamental spans.
Light is furnished the side chapels by
means of two windows in each, at present
filled with opalescent glass, but intended to
be replaced soon as may be, by memorial
windows The main altar has been placed
in position between the sacristy rooms. AS
this altar is of handsome marble in order
to correspond to 1t, two smaller ones have
been carved in this city to match it, and are
located in the side chapels. The floor of the
entire sanctuary has been covered with
figured tiling of a graceful pattern. The
pastor of st. Stephens is the Rev. J. ].
Dougherty, and he has as his assistant
Rev. p. ]. OConnell.

Fire Insurance Dividend Declared

The trustees of the Mutua, Protective
Fire Insurance Company of the District
have decided upon a dividend, in the shape
of rebate on last years premium of -
per cent. an increase of 3 per cent over
prior years. The rates charged by the com
psny being already very low. this brings
the cost of insurance down to a nominal
figure. All new policies taken out in the
company before the 25th of November next
have the advantage of a saving in the
premium for the coming year, and also of
sharing in any dividend declared at the end
of that year. The office of the company is
at 1406 G street northwest, where applica-
tion should be made to the secretary, Mr..
James E. Fitch.-Advt.

The second company, Governors Foot
Guard, of New Haven, Conn.,. after an en-
jcyable stay in this city, departed for home
this morning. After the dismissal of the
parade yesterday afternoon, the Guards
had not much time on their hands before
the reception, which was held at the Ebbitt
House in the evening. Many well-known
military men and others were among the
guests, and speeches We're made by Major
Benjamin E. Brown and Senator Hawley
Many complimentary things Were said of
the Washington Light Infantry Corps
which took charge of the entertainment of
the visitors. The company was escorted to
the depot by committee shortly after .
o'clock this morning, and urged to again
come to the capital city.

This year the program promises some en-

Columbia Musical Parlors.-As usual most
of the attractions on the graphophones,
microscopes and Observation-Disclosures Will
be changed the coming week. The "Trilby'
dance by the Leigh sisters. to be seen on
the kinetoscope, is the first barefoot dance
ever produced. The Midway Dance as
danced on the Midway Plaisance, is still
the leading attraction. On tine graphic
phones. the songs Henrietta" and the
vocal solo by Weber, set to the music OF
the Honeymoon march. are probably the
most Interesting attractions. The atten-
dance this week has been exceedingly
large.
Mr.. Hanford's Tour.-Charles B. Han
ford's many friends in this city are look
ing eagerly forward to his engagement
week of November 1S at the Academy OF
Music. The popular young tragedian and
his two co-stars Elihu r. Spencer and
Nora P. Brien, have met with great sue
cess. so far this season, both artistfcally
and financially. Mr.. Hanford's Virginius
has evidently made a most decided i'm
preston. His magnificent physique, his
rare command of gesture and facial ex-
preston. coupled with voice of almost
unlimited range, must make him almost
ideal in this character. Mr.. Hanford has
also scored a success as Damon. Shylock
and Mercutio. OF Miss O'Brien the critics
have nothing to say but words of praise.

Virginia and clever noble Portia she is

Alleged Practical Joke.

Some unknown person attempted fool
ish practical joke on Rev. Dr. s. H. Greene,
pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church, by
sending out large number Of invitations
to attend reception to be given at DR..
Greene's house, 1920 Q street, last evening.
The invitations were sent without the
knowledge of the host, but he learned about
them in time and published a card last
evening, apprising his friends of the nature
of the fake" with the result that very
few. if any, were caught. DR.. Greene says
that he has no idea who the joker was, nor
what was the motive back of such mean
and silly trick.

GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETY.
Regular Monthly Publication Has
Been Determined On.

Regular Monthly Publicati ton Has
Been Determined On.
The large membership of the National
Geographic Society, as well as a good con-
tingent of their friends was well represent
ed in the audience which gathered at
Metzerott Hall last evening to listen to a
lecture from Mr.. Ernest Flagg on the de-
velopment of the mediaeval cathedral. The
speaker of the evening was introduced by
Mr. Gardiner Hubbard, the president of the
society After making some annuonce-
ments of the other lectures which are to be
given in this course, Mr.. Hubbard stated
that it had been determined to make
regular monthly issue of the publication of
the society, instead Of having it appear at
irregular intervals as has been the case.
Mr. Hubbard said that it was deemed that
the membership of the society had grown
so large that they were justified In taking
this step. The first issue of the National
Geographic Magazine under this arrange
ment will be next month.
Mr.. Flagg's lecture. which was followed
with interest by the audience, was finely
illustrated by stereopticon views OF photo
graphs and architectural drawings. The il
Illustrations admirably supplemented the lee
ture, which was a scholarly treatment OF
the subject, tracing the evolution of eccle-
siastical buildings from the basilica, show
ing the influence of byzantine art, and
pointing out the problems which beset the
medieval builders and how the pointed
arch had at last been worked out leading
to the adoption of the Gothic style of archi-
lecture, which perhaps represented the
most potent factor in the entire history Of
architecture. All these various phases of
the subject were graphically illustrated by
means of the pictures, and, although in
some respects the lecture was technical it
proved to be highly interesting and in
structive to the audience. In closing, Mr..
Flagg called attention to the opportunities
presented in this country for the creation of
a new school in architecture and he said
that he had no doubt in the future the
American style would be impressed on
many of the fine structures to be erected.
Thus far he said, in this country architec-
ture was mainly an imitation of the forms
