OLD TRINITY CHURCH
ABOUT TO CELEBRATE ITS SECOND
CENTENNIAL

Trinity Il Probably the Most Famous of
tory, Its Great Wealth and Its Ancient
Churchyard.
On May old Trinity church, New
York, is to celebrate the two hundredth
anniversary of its establishment, and
the event is to be marked by one of the
most interesting ceremonies which the
Protestant Episcopal church of this coun-
try has ever taken part in The pro-
gramme is being arranged by the Rev.
Dr.. Morgan Dix, who for many years
has occupied the Trinity pulpit. AL
though the details have not yet been ar
ranged, there will be a great gathering
Of distinguished divines of the denom-
nation from all parts of the country.
Trinity church has long been one of
the show sights of the metropolis for
visitors and landmark for New York
ers- When the parish was established
by royal decree, the site of the original
structure was designated as being located
without the north gate of the city,
At that time the graceful spire lowered
far above every other edifice on the is
land, and the waters of the North river
Tapped close to the western boundary Of
the churchyard
But in the two centuries which have
gone the city has not only caught up
with the church, which was once on its
outskirts, but has outsripped it so thor
oughly that now its northern gate'' is
nearly a score of miles from Trinity.
Even the river has been pushed back
until it is three blocks to the westward
Trinity's spire is just as tall today as it
ever was, but the great bulwarks of
commerce with which the southern part
of the island is fortified dwarf it almost
into insignifcance.-
It will be interesting 70 note whether
or not the early history of Trinity

GuzMAN BLANco's OVERTHROW
The Anniversary to Re Celebrated-A
Riot Not Feared

New York, May ia special to the
Herald from Caracas, Venezuela, SAYS
The citizens OF Caracas have decided
to mark the anniversary Of the over
throw OF Guzman Blanco. May 20, by a
demonstration. There Is to be a pa
rade. the various election societies hav-
ing promised to take part in It, notably
those comprising the adherents Of Ro-
Jas Paula, who Is now apparently the
popular idol.
The full program OF the demonstra-
ton has been issued and a large force
OF additional policemen has been ap-
pointed to serve on the day Of the pa
rade. The men in charge of the affair
have also sent a message TO the gov>
ernor to exercise his authority IN pre-
serving order The reason for this eX-
traordinary precaution lies In the fact
that the promoters of the demonstra-
tion fear a riot when the day arrives.
The government organs have violently
denounced the whole affair, thus arous-
lns the anger In the minds Of the peo,
pie, 1t is predicted that there will be
serious trouble,
