YOUNG PEOPLES SOCIETIES.
Victory by the Christian Endeavorers
81

Christian Endeavor won a victory yes
terday afternoon in the Presbyterian gen.
eral assembly at Saratoga. Those Interest,"
ed in the movement were in the majority,
and they exercised their power
The subject of young peoples societies
attracted great interest. The main speech
of the session was made by DR. George B.
Stewart Of Harrisburg. He contended that
the societies desired ecclesiastical rscogni-
ton In the sense Of a right to exist in The
church and to manage their own affairs,
subject only to the church session. The
Statement of relations" he characterized
as admirable, but he opposed the continu-
ance of the committee with carte blanche
powers, which 1t asked for. He moved TO
discharge the committee, but his motion
was POSTPONED.
Elder Sheppard of Philadelphia moved TO
strike out the section under consideration
and 1t was carried with applause
This clause provided for a plan to unite
the Presbyterian societies. A motion was
made to eXpunge the following sections.
which provided that the stated clerk send
cut statistical blanks
The following paragraphs were eliminated
one by one, except that a substitute was
adopted for one of them. II urged the low
atty of societies to the sessions of the
churches, and the transmission of beneyo-
lent contributions through the church
board. Only two clauses of the report were
retained, relating to the appointment Of a
committee to consider the brotherhood of
Andrew and Philip and the Boys Brigades
The final vote, discharging the committee
with thanks, was greeted with prolonged
applause.

DRAWING FOR PRIZES.

Art Gallery.

The Students Contest at the COrcOran
Art Gallery.
The decision Of the judges who have been
selected to pass on the merits of the draw
ings submitted for the medal contest at the
Corcoran Art School will be announced to-
day at 400. In the presence Of the students
and their friends. To enter the competition
the pupil must have worked in the school
for at least two years, provision which
brings the prize within the reach of the
regular students only. Each contestant
submits six drawings, three from cast and
an equal number from life, and. in order
to give all possible fairness to the decision,
letters placed In the corners of the draw
irgs serve in place of the usual signatures
until after the award. The school has been
closed for several days, and today the
rooms were given over to the exclusive use
of the jury of award, Henry Mosler William
Sartsin and Henry Thouron. all welI-known
artists, from outside the city, In order that
they might have plenty of time to arrive q t
carefully considered decision. They will
find the task a much more arduouS one than
has fallen to the lot Of any jury in previous
years, owing 20 the greater number of stu
dents competing and the more uniform
standard of merit. The students entering
the contest this year number seventeen, q
much larger number than ever before. On
coming to agreement the Judges will
place their award in a sealed envelope, to
be opened at the time stated in the pres
ence of the friends of the school In addi-
ton to the gold medal for the best work
shown. bronze medal will be awarded to
the student ranking next, and several hon.
orable mentions will also be given. The
work shown this year is very strong. and
speaks well for the industry of the students
during the winter. At the exhibition which,
opening tomorrow, will be continued until
Saturday noon, the medal-winning draw
ipgs will, of course, be the center of attrac-
ton. but the work by the pupils in the por-
trait. water color and still-life classes Is
equally well worth a visit.

FUTURE WARS.
Gen. Howard Lectures on the Gentle
Art of Killing.

For the benefit Of the Colored Y. NJ. c. A.
Maj. Gen. o. o. Howard last evening lee
tured at Metzerott Hall, his subject being
The Warfare Of the Future" Owing to
some mistake in the matter of placing tick
cts on sale, the distinguished soldier had
before him but very small audience. That
fact did not appear to discourage the gen.
eral the least Bit and his very interesting
lecture was delivered in an unusually talk
ing manner. Representative Curtis Of New
York. himself veteran Of the late war.
presented General Howard to the audience
one of the most distinguished soldiers OF
the American army-a man who entered
the late war an educated soldier. and one
who understood and appreciated the vol
unteer soldier at his true value.
General Howard explained that he would
not attempt TO describe war and warfare
in technical way, but in such a manner
would be best understood by those unac-
quainted with the subject. He thought
there are three things responsible for or
productive of war-the propelling sentiment
of the people. International law and the
armament of the country. Taking his own
experience an example, he thought the
stories of veterans and the tales of their
achievements instilled in the hearts of the
young martial spirit. He referred to the
wars preceding the war of the rebellion,
saying that they all had their influence up
on the young, so that when the late war
broke out both sides We're possessed Of
such warlike feeling that peace was SIM
ply impossible. OF the war of 1872, he said
that we had little to be proud of, although
the victories of our navy and those of Har-
riSon We're exceptions. That war, however,
was productive of two memorable things
the settlement of the question of Great
Britain's pretended right of search and that
glorious national hymn, THE Star Spangicd
Banner" Not until the Mexican war,
thought General Howard, was the artillery
given its true recognition.
The question of armament was dwelt up
on, General Howard saying that in 1850 be-
gan the Improvement which has since been
carried on to marvellous extent. Speaking
of the battle OF Gettysburg, he said that
the loss not SO great as al the battle
of Waterloo, and that had both armies been
then armed as today the great charges
would have been either impossible or of
very brief duration. In future wars greater
intelligence would be required; but he fear
ed that modern inventions would not crush
the desire for war; because those who bring
about wars seldom do the lighting That
remark he wished could be heard by both
houses of Congress. He thanked God that
the prevailing sentiment in not only this
but in other civilized countries is against
for the settlement of all questions likely to
result otherwise in war, he would not for
moment do anything or suggest anything
which would discourage crush out pa
triotism. Or the other hand. he would do
everything to foster and continue patriot
ism. The people should love and encourage
peace but they should do everything to he
at all times prepared in every way for war
in defense Of the country.

THE HORsA DECISION.
How 1t Is Regarded by Department
of Justice Officials.


The officials of the Department of Justice
regard the decision Of the Supreme Court
IN the Horsa case as fully sustaining the
contention of the government in all Of the
flfbustering cases with which it has had
any connection. From the first 1t has been
maintained by the Attorney General and
his assistants that the presence Of arms
ana men on the same vessel destined for
cuba, except it be shown that the arms
We're not intended for the men on the YES
sci, was pr1ma facie evidence Of such a con-
necfton- between the two as to bring the en-
terprise clearly within the meaning of the
law fnhtbiting military expeditions against
a friendly power Under the construction
placed upon the law by the Supreme Court.
1t Is believed at the department that the
participants in every expedition which has
come before the courts since the revolution
began in Cuba could have been convicted
and punished, and from now on increased
diligence will be enjoined upon United
States marshals and others having proper
authority to prevent the fitting out Of Gu
nan hlibusters from United States ports.

Bicycles and Pedestrians.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star,
am glad Judge Kimball is imposing
fines upon reckless bicycle riders. but think
the fine should be $40 instead of s.. In
view of the fact that several Of our cfti-
zens have been run into and badly hurt
(some of them, as you know, have died
from the injuries received, and the riders
could not be identified because they rode
Off so fast, I hope the Commissioners will
require all owners of bicycles in the city
to number their machines, the number to
be so arranged that 1t can readily be SEEN
This would tend to check the reckless rid
ing and lead to the Identification and pun
isbment of the violators Of the regulations
The man who rode into and killed poor
old Mrs. Ferguson some time ago rode off
so rapidly that no one could identify him,
and in that way escaped deserved punish
ment, but I should think his conscience
would make him an unhappy man the rest
of his life. PUBLIC GOOD
