LAST BAND CONCERT.
An Immense Crowd Down at Garfield
Park.

The interest in the last band concert of
the season at Garfield Park was cut short
last night by q series of showers, when the
programme was about half completed. An
enormous crowd was in attendance, vari-
ously estimated at about ten thousand per-
sons.
In the crowd was a large sprinkling of
people from out of town, brought in by the
numerous excursions. From the moment
one entered the park a dense stream of
people was met with, either going or COM
ing. At least two thousand persons crowded
around the band stand only to be jostled
by the children running among them, play
ing hide and seek" Outside of this throng
extending over the roadway, was another
crowd, most of which was seated on the
grass. While the music was of a high or
der throughout the programme it excited
only fair applause until just before the
showers came up, when the band struck
up a medley of patriotic airs. Then the
musicians got intro trouble. The strains of
1.-THE Star-spanged Banner had hardly
died away when the big crowd burst out
with yells and screeches, and before it could
be appeased the musicians had to play THE
Stars and Stripes Forever. One young
man will probably remember his experience
at the concert last night for many days to
come because of its unfortunate ending.
He came to the park in the company OF
young woman on whom he evidently de-
sired to make an impression. After listen
ing to the strains of the patriotic music for
a time, and being reminded that it was
time for the young woman to return home,
he suggested a fitting finale to the evening
pleasure would be a ride in one of the boats
on the lake. AS it was on the way to the
cars the young woman consented. and, ar
irving at the landing, he picked out boat
which satisfied his critical eye. With a
true sense' of nautical superiority he waved
her to place near at hand, while he swung
the boat around for her TO enter. Here he
made his mistake. for intent as he was on
creating an impression, he forgot that boats
are not propped up on both sides. and when
he stepped one of the gunwales the boat
gracefully turned over, leaving him strug-
Cling in the water. When he was f1shed
out his patent feathers looked like the
shovels in a steam dredge and his duck
trousers were a sight, not to speak of the
general effect of the water dripping from
his wiited collar To add to his misfortunes
at this moment another friend of the young
woman came along with an umbrella, and,
as ii had begun 10 rain she accepted his
offer of escort leaving the young man to
shake himself and walk 20 . street car.

NEW big FOUR" CHURCH
HOYT-AVENUE NJ. p. STRUCTURE
DEDICATED YESTERDAY.
How 1t Got It's Popular Name-It Is
without DebtS-Series
of Services.

The new Hoyt-avenue Methodist Protest
ant Church was dedicated yesterday. The
church stands at the corner of Hoyt avenue
and Dillon street. 1t is not entirely new
but the building has been so completely re-
modelled and refurnished that it appears like
an entirely new structure. The interior of
the church is bright and cheerful. The re-
modelling of the church cost 81, 800, and this
amount has been raised from among the
members and their friends. The church has
no debts. Yesterday morning, at the meet
ing of the Sunday school, the children
pledged $40 to the church. During the vari-
Gus services of the day 800 was pledged
Nine hundred dollars was pledged before
yesterday. The employees of the Big Four
Railroad subscribed 500. The church has
for years been known as the big Four
Church." because many of the families of
men employed by that railroad attend the
church. The bell in the tower of the
church was given by employees of the rail-
road several years ago.
Rev. S. Heininger, of Elkhart superin-
tendent of the Chicago German Mission
Conference, was the speaker of the day
yesterday in the dedication services. At 10
o'clock in the morning he preached on a
text from the Psalms: Peace be within
thy walls, and prosperity within thy pal
aces The choir and orchestra led the
singing of hymns. At o'clock in the after
noon the former pastors of the church made
congratulatory addresses: Rev. John Helm
of Greenfield; Rev. w. w. Lineberry. OF
Franklin, and Rev l.. Coomer, of Mier
Last night a general song and praise serv-
ice was held, and Rev. Mr.. Heininger again
preached.
All the services were we'll attended. The
church has 210 members. 1t is seventeen
years old. The Rev. w. l.. Martin has been
its pastor since year ago.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE CHANGES
A beautiful Lobby Being Provided
New Dressing Rooms.

Dickson & Talbot, owners of the Grand
Opera House. are making some extensive
improvements in that popular playhouse.
A stock company Is to hold the boards this
season, and many changes for the comfort
of the player folks are being made, as well
as in the exterior appearance of the the
alter. The most noticeable Improvement is
in the lobby The floor has been lowered to
the street level, the old iron, steps having
been removed. The lobby is being laid with
white marble, sloping gradually upward
from the street entrance to the doors of the
parquette floor. The old box office has been
removed, as well as the stairway on the
right side that led TO the private offices of
the managers. This gives a clear wallway.
which will be handsomely decorated The
lobby is row encountered with scaffold-
ing so that little can be observed of the
character of the decorations. but it can be
said they will be striking and will be beau
titully Illuminated with incandescent lights
A new box office is to be constructed with
some conveniences in the way of selling
tickets that were lacking before. A hand
some stairway, in keeping with the general
decorative scheme, will lead up to the
managers private offices.
Many changes are being made back of the
curtain line. A new stage is being laid and
conveniences for the stage carpenters and
are being made in the dressing rooms in the
basement. Old walls have been torn out,
cement floors are being laid and every
thing POSSIBLE to add to the comfort and
convenience of the members of the stock
company will be provided. As the actors
under the stock system virtually make a
home of the theater. spending many hours
a day in studying parts and tiresome re-
hearsals, II is really necessary to provide
more conveniences in their quarters than
are generally considered necessary for
companies on the road.

CUT HIS WAY OUT.
William Fleming Was Set Upon by
Three Men.

The man who carved Ed Barneclo with
so much skill, early yesterday morning, has
been arrested and acknowledges that he did
the cutting, but says it was done in self
defense. His name is VIM. Fleming, and
his version Of the affair is believed by the
police Shortly before the appearance of
Barneclo Saturday night boy had report
ed that three men were whipping a man
near the place where Barneclo said the cut
ting had occurred. The boy did not wait to
see. the finish, but hurried at once to the
ponce station and sent officers, BY that
time, however, the fighters had disappeared
and nothing could be found. 1t is now
thought that Barneclo, with Frank German
and Con Hines, attacked Fleming. Fleming
says this was the case, and that he drew
his penknife, which is unusually sharp, and
literally cut his way out. He did his work
well. When he realized what he had done
he went at once to the home of his en-
ployer. near Garfield Park, and told him
what had happened. The police were then
notified that Fleming was the guilty party
and an officer was sent to arrest him. He
was released at once upon bond. Barneclo
is still in the hospital, and, though suffer-
ing much, is in no danger.

THE CROWD AT BETHANY.
Somewhat Larger than at the other
Assembly Place.

Assembly Race.
Over two tho Isand people enjoyed the hos
pitality of Bethany Park yesterday. The
day was cool and the services were excep-
tionally good The hotel and sanitarium
served more meals than they have any day
since the assembly opened. Preparations
had been made beforehand however, for a
large crowd and the visitors were we'll taken
care of and returned home pleased with the
days outing.
The services began early with a prayer
meeting at $50 o'clock. The Bible school
was conducted by T. ]. Legg, after which
Rev Mr.. Breeder preached. His discourse
was based on the words, 1--WE Would See
Jesus" John xii, q. Mr.. Breeder introduced
his theme by description of his recent visit
to Palestine and his first view of the gate
through which the trumphal entry of Jesus
was made into the holy city. From a word
picture of the event and the occasion he de-
! scribed the Jewish mind as materialstic,
moved by the miraculous and the Greek
mind as philosophic, moved by the intel
lectual and aesthetic. The philosophy of
vision, he said, was found in two causes or
conditions; first, a great deal to see WITH
second, a great deal to see. Carlyle says,
THE eye says what it brings the power to
see." All true vision is moral The pure in
heart shall see what? All great visions in
one-God. The human mind. Jewish, Greek
or modern sees only a fragment of the real
Jesus. He is too great in His divinity to be
caught upon the retina of any eye. Dr.
Breeder proceeded to discuss the Jesus the
Jew might have seen, the physical Jesus,
then the intellectual Jesus, climaxing his
discourse with a strong and glowing pre-
sentation of the spiritual Jesus The SER
mon was generally commented upon as
strong in its grasp of the personal Christ
who, the preacher argued, the solution
of all social problems, the key of destiny
of hallelujahs and the savior of the world

subject was THE Holy Spirit" After the

words by e. S. Conner; music by w. E. NJ.
Hackleman. Then Rev. o. G. Hertzog
preached a sermon, taken from III Peter i,
5: The source of the power of the gospel"
A summary in part is as follows: The gos-
pei is Gods power in salvation, not in crea-
ton. nor yet in civilization. There are two
kinds OF power, moral and physical. The
one has to do with the mind and the other
with matter God reaches the mind in har-

mony with the law of the mind. He does
not work a miracle upon man even to save
him. The whole question of reward and
punishment rests upon the fact of mans
accountability and responsibility. God S
power is found in the message He brings to
man. All of Gods power TO appeaSe hunger
is found in bread; all of His power to as
suage thirst is in water, so His power to
save is in the gospel but the food and
water must be received and appropriated to
effect this result, and the gospel must be
believed and obeyed in order to redeem and
save man.
During the afternoon the only excitement
was runaway. Miss Melvay Gregory and
Nellie Rinker were driving home from the
services when the horse became frightened
and ran away. Both women were thrown
from the buggy. but not seriously injured.

climbed on behind. He paid little attention
to them, but at the corner of Sixteenth and
Senate avenue he happened to glance behind
and the passengers were gone. With them
had also gone the beer and other stuff that
he was carrying. He was assured at the
police station that the empty kegs would be
recovered, but was given little hopes of find
ing the thieves. unless they should be over
