SPREADING THE GOSPEL.
Statistics Presen'od at Aanual Meeting Of
American Trac. Society,"

Washington, April 12.-The Washing
ton annual meeting of the Tract society
was held last night in the West Street
Presbyterian church. Senator Burrows
presiding.
Rev. Judson Swift, field secretary OF
New York. presented brief report of
the society'S work.
The report called attention to the fact
tnat 10000 900 OF the population are out
side the church and that there was
no more important work to be done in
this country than that Of carving the
gospel truth TO these millions. 1t stated
that the American Tract society pub
lished evangelic truth in I53 languages
and dialects. The total number OF vol
umes in all languages published in New
York reaches 3l,50o,00O. the total num-
bcI OF books and tracts nearly 500. 900 600.
and the total periodicals over 200, 500,
900.
Through its missionary colportage. the
report says, the society has carried the
gospel truth to the out-of-the- way
laces, ana into the congested wards of
the cities. 1T has gone into the lumber
camps, the mining regions and the
sparsely settled districts, leaving the
no were entirely destitute of all re-
ligious privileges Hundreds Of l.
day schools have been organized
devotional services held in log cabins,
schoolhouseS and oftentimes in le
open air. The whole number Of fam ly
visits made since the society began it's
house-to-house work is over 14500, 90.
and the number OF families prayed
with or conversed with on religious
subjects amounts to nearly $500, 900.
IT is impossible to tell the far-reaching
results of this noble work. Thousands
and tens OF thousands have been won
to Christ through it's instrumentality."
The work at Ellis island was spoken
OF as being Of great Importance. in that
the colportenrs there gave the gospel
truth in some form To the large number
that are arriving daily on our shores.
The report also called attention to the
fact that the society's income has been
lossened by the falling off in legacies of
nearly $4,000 during the past year and
that the great need at the present time
was an increase I'm donations.

His Licensed Liquor Store on
Lincoln Avenue Has Been Under
Suspicion For Some Time.
SHOP AND HOUSE SURROUNDED.
Foar Strangers Found In the House. and the
Police Claim There Was Every Evidence OF
Doing Sunday Business--LocaI Notes.

The police, under Sergt. Louks, were
around yesterday visiting the liquor shops,
and among the number to whom they paid
their compliments, the place formerly kept
by Joseph Davignon & Co., on Lincoln
avenue. 1t seems that Davignon has been
in the hospital for some little time and the
good will and fixtures were sublet to one
Solomon Mennier, who 1t is alleged has
been running the place for some time
hack.
IT has been suspected for some time that
this place has been doing a Sunday busi-
ness, and yesterday, armed with a search
warrant, Sergeant Louks and Officers
Coombs, Walsh, Lambert, Coutoure and
McCrs visited the place. The house was
surrounded and an entrance made into
the tenement in the rear of the shop.
When the officers entered the house they
found four men there who were not MEM
bers OF the household. One OF the men,
seeing the officers enter, attempted to
throw what was supposed to be beer out
of the window, but the glass falling to the
floor was broken and the contents were
spilled. The officers claim that there was
every sign OF Sunday business being car
ried on there.
The bar room was then visited and a
man giving the name OF George Print
was foun 1 there; the shop was open and
everything connected and in full draught,
the beer faucets apparently having been
in use during the day. Both Mennier and
Print were taken to the police station, but
were released later. 1t appears from the
statements OF the people that there IS no
water connections in the tenements, and,
il at any time they want water, they go to
the saloon and get it. 1t is further stated
that they keep the coal and wood there
and when wanted get it in the same way
as when they want water. III this is true
it is clear case of an infraction Of the
license laws.

A Billiard Run of $500.

Billiards stands alone as the game which
the majority of people prefer To play rather
than to witness. The difference between
the professionals and the amateurs is far
greater at billiards than at any other pas
time. The reason is obvious. Billiars'
requires an enormous amount of practice
and great physical elements. The eyesight
must be keen and the hand true, ami,
above all, the temperament must be even.
At what the public knows to be English
billiards W. j. Pcall is the admitted cham
pioH. Where the ordinary British gentle
man would be proud of a break of 40,
Peall holds the record with an effort
amounting to 3, 3,304. Furthermore, he has
on about 80 occasions exceeded the 1000,
and this feat alone has defed the efforts of
any other billiard player

ANTHONY COMSTOCK
Delivered Forcible Address Last Even
ing at Congregational Church.

Delivered Forcible Address Last Even
ing at Congregational Church.
A forcible address was given last evening
at the Congregational Church, High street,
by Anthony Comstock, Secretary of the
Society for the Prevention of Vice. Mr..
Comstock gave a history of the trials and
troubles in forming this society. He said
that the society was formed in 1874, al
though for the two years previous some
work had been done in this direction. He
said that the greatest difficulty the society
experienced at first was in regard to the
United States mail which was the great
dsseninator of this class of literature.
Feeling that this nuisance must be
abated he (Mr. Comstock) went to Wash
ington to have bill passed by Congress
preventing the use of the mails for this
purpose. In this he was successful, and
the bill was passed and signed by Presi-
dent Grant. He spoke of the tons of
obscene literature which had been seized
by himself and agents. Mr.. Comstock is a
Postoffice Inspector, and that gives him
added facilities for carrying on the work.
The address was interesting and listened
to with close attention.

Constable's Rejected Picture.

The story of the rejection OF Sir Edward
Poynter's pictures at the Glasgow institute
finds parallel In the case of no less dis,
tinguished an artist than Constable Ev.
cry one knows that the work of the great
landscape painter was not properly appre.
ciated by his contemporaries, but few peo.
pie probably are aware that one of his pic.
lures was actually rejected by the Acad.
emy, in n year, too, when Constable was
himself a member of the selecting commit.
tee. BY some accident one of Constable :
landscapes, a small work, had been placed
among the outsiders pictures, and was
passed, in its turn, before the selecting
committee. The first academician pooh.
poOhed it as too green, the second said IL
was empty, and the verdict of the third
was equally unfavoable. Constable, who
came next, said not u word, but the re-
naming members Of the committee were
unanimous in condemning the picture,
which was rejected.
Directly the verdict was pronounced
Constable rose from his seat. and to the
astonishment of the committee claimed
the picture as his own. He thanked his
fellow academiCians with bitter politencss
for their opinions, which, he said, were
the more valuable because they were total
ly unbiased The president, Sir Martin
Archer Shee, tried i'm vain tn smooth mat
ters over, and begged Constable to excuse
the mistake and to allow the picture to De
hung. But the indignant artist would
not be modified. The picture had been re-
jccted by the committee and nothing
should induce him to exhibit 1t. He was
as good IA his word, and the rejected pic
ture was removed the next day

tragedian told Mr.. Keene that when he
first thought Of playing the part he read
all that the great literary and dramatic
critics of the world had to say Of the role.
When he got through his mind was chaos.
No two conclusions apparently agreed, so
he swept them all away and began read
ing the play carefully in the original. ! ,
found it "a very simple tragedy, and con
cluded that Hamlet posed as being m' I

Keene adds that Mounet- -Sully regard {,
Ophelia as decoy, and would not ha, (,
her the angelic, simple minded creature
