The ministers of the city did not respond
unanimously TO the request of the Civic
League, that they yesterday present the
dangers and duty of the hour to their con-
gregations. There were communion services
in a majority of the Protestant churches
and no special sermons were preached on
the questions of law enforcement. One
pastor said to the Journal: isr
II believe / have said enough on the base
ball question to give my congregation an
idea of what believe is right in the matter.
We pastors have preached to our congrega-
tions till they understand the situation.

work to have the laws enforced"

were enthusiastically received. Charles Rey-

Success of the Vitascope.

New York, April 24-Edison's vita
scope was exhibited for the first time
lat Roster & Balls last night, and was
received with great applause. 1t is a
of the kinetescope, the
pictures being colored and thrown on a
white screen on the stage. Several
Views were shown, the best being the
|surf. an umbrella dance, serpentine
dance and a scene from a recent farce
comedy The most successful of all
Twas the surf scene. 1t represents a
hong pier extending out into the ocean,
with the waves beating against it and
|dashing on the sand. In the distance
1.-THE breakers covered with white caps
come rolling in towards the land; as
they near the shore the mass of green
|water rises high, combs with sparkling
green and white, and pounds upon the
|shingle; the white foam and spray fly
Into the air, the water rushes up the
beach to recede and meet the next wave
'Mhile one instinctively listens for the
Roar of the sea-beach. 1t was re-
bnarkabIe exhibition, indicative of the
great possibilities of the vitascope. The
dances were pretty, and it seemed as
+f the dancers were actually upon the
stage. The usual variety program was
given. Chevalier was obliged to make
some additions to his entertainment.

Mr.. Wilbur's Press Agent.

A very essential feature of the Will
bur Opera company is Miss Maud
Daniel, treasurer and press agent of
the opera company. She is bright and
pretty and very pleasant to meet.
Talking with Courier reported yester-
day Miss Daniel said that she sang
with the company before she began the
press work. She has been in her pres
ent position for the past year and she
added that in her almost daily con-
tact with newspaper men since that
time she had not found one that had
not treated her with the utmost polite
ness.
Il think the reason Mr. Wilbur put
me into this work" she said, lis be-
cause he believes woman can get
more printed in the papers about the
show than man could. Dramatic edi-
tors have to be polite to a woman, at
least, and will listen to what she has
to say when a man might not be able
to get a hearing. Newspaper men have
always treated me very nicely, and l
always find them ready to print any
thing about the show that is newsy or
readable
Besides being press agent of the show
Miss Daniel sometimes sells tickets at
the box office, engages and looks after
the chorus girls, has an oversight Of
the living pictures, acts as treasurer in
Mr. Wilburs absence and occasionally
plays minor part, She finds her time
pretty well occupied with all these
duties, but the fair hustler seems never
to grow weary or tired and her good
nature is never driven away by the
cares of the day and evening. She is
well liked by the chorus girls, although
she inflicts an occasional fine.
BY the way Miss Daniel enjoys the
distinction of being the only lady man.
ager in the business. She likes her
work very much and always has a
pleasant word for all the company, as
well as the newspaper men. She has
many interesting incidents to relate of
her many experiences the past year on
the road
There are over forty people in the
company and many of them have been
with the company from four to six
years.

TIE VENEzUELA DISPUTE.
Status of Negotiations Between Great
Britain and the United States.

Status of Negotiations Between Great
Britain and the United States.
Washington, April 24.-The report
that the Venezuelan question has again
reached a critical stage owing to in
action amounting to terminating of ne
gotiations has brought out positive
statements that the United States gov
eminent has not offered nor suggested
a withdrawal of the present Venezuelan
commission, and that negotiations to-
ward general arbitration between the
United States and Great Britain are
proceeding satisfactorily, although
there has been little progress yet to-
wards having the Venezuela dispute
included in the general scope of the ar
bitration.
Aside from these two material points,
the general status of the subject has not
changed of late, and there is no appre-
hension or uneasiness lest the nego-
tiations lapse or fail. 1t is the general
understanding that the Venezuelan
commission will not report until De-
cenber next.

on March % for license which was to
run year. The excise board, in order
to make test case, refused to grant

sue license,
Einsfeld's attorneys took the matter
before Justice Pryor on writ of GER
tiorari. Justice Pryor dismissed the
writ, The matter was then taken to

the law is constitutional. The matter
will be taken to the court of appeals.
All the justices concur in the decis-
ion.

MR.. BEECHER'S SLAVE SALE.
Thrilling Object Lesson on Slavery in
Plymouth Pulpit.

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher writes in
the December Ladies Home Journal
of when Mr.. Beecher Sold Slaves in
the Plymouth Pulpit" and thus de-
scribes the sensation created by the sale
of Sarah, which occurred on June !,
1856: The solemn, impressive silence
of that vast Plymouth assemblage was
absolutely painful as a young woman
slowly assembled the stairs leading to
the pulpit and sank into chair by Mr..
Beecher's side. Instantly assuming the
look and manner of a slave auctioneer
he called for bids. Look he exclaimed,
at this marketable commodity-hu-
man flesh and blood, like yourselves.
You see the white blood of her father
III her regular features and high,
thoughtful brow. Who bids? You will
have to pay extra for that white blood,
because it is supposed to give intelli-
gence. Stand up, Sarah! Now, look at
her trim figure and her wavy hair!-
