RIVAL LECTURE COURSES.
Cycle Club and New Century club
to Furnish Entertainment.

A few years ago this city considered
itself lucky # it was provided with
one lecture course a season. The Ma
sons seemed to be the only or@aniHa-
tion willing to assume the responsible
ity Of conducting one. Now We have
the cycle club and the now Cntury
club planning course entertainments Of
the season of lS9S-99.
The new Century clubs name was
used in connection with last Writer'S
course the financial success Of which
was assured by Agent Wiley who sold
between 400 and 500 tickets before the
course opened. However. the large at
tendance encouraged the ladies and
they now have confidence enough to
undertake the project without outside
helH
The Cycle club has net With such
uninterrupted success iE its MANAGE
ment Of hiGh class entertainments that
it decided some time ago to engage the
hest talent to be bad for next season.
The question as to whether TWO courses
will pay, naturally arises. The answer
to this is found in the fact that the
club made d little money on each Of its
entertainments last season. and they
were sandWichod in between the num-
bers of the course.
In this connection many will he in

Gumaer is no longer the prima donna of

peared here last winter. Miss Kathar-

.ditor Of The Tribune.

t-tlI'l VI llc ll4bune.
Sir: I find in todays Tribune an
article from the pen of the Rev. Will
lard j. Smith, pastor of the church Of
The Latter-Day Saints" in this city.
taking me to task for certain strict
ures Of nine last Sunday evening
touching the faith, doctrine and
preachers Of the saints.
Allow me to say that if the faith of
the Mormons is as strong as that ar
ticle and their professed veneratiOn of
Joseph Smith is as mendacious, there
is no wonder that the Mormnns are
prescribed by all intelligent and right
thinking people.
Mr.. Smith did not hear but a few
sentences of the sermon and not one
word did we say against the faith or
creeds Of the Baptists, Methodists and
Presbyterians. NeTfer did we de-
nOunCe those denominations or refer
to them in our sermon in any such
way.
Mr.. Smith tries to bolster up his own
cause and curry favor with the
churches of Scranton--from which he
expects to draw most Of his votaries--
by prejudiCing them against us and
our work and thus make friends for
himGelf and cause. | believe in the
Westminster catechism; | endorse the
Baptist confession of faith; / accent
and subscribe to every word in the
Methodist discipline. ! accept without
equivocation or amendation the whole
Scriptures as my guide and rule Of
life. l believe in all orthodox creeds,
but believe also in a ballot box creed
and have no controversy with other
denominations except to proclaim ve-
hemently against preachers and church
members praying, 80, God thy king
dom come" and then on election day
so and vote for rum. l am opposed
to the church Of God afiliating with
dirty politicians and setting up the
works of the devil in our midst
We secured all our information con-
cernng Mormonism from the encyclo-
paedias and people who knew the
Smith family. As to their practices,
they certainly belle their now latter
day saints. Saints do not set up an
| other prophet over Jesus Christ and
insult God and heaven with "A pre-
| tended yeneration that robs the Al
| mighty of His spirituality. Let me
say, / am citizen Of this republic
and as patriotic as the best Of Nor
| mons, and do not consider myself an
enemy to the flag or disloyal to the
| Union because ! point out and de-
| nounce the evils of the nation.

GEOGRAPHICAL DATA.
Distances from Point TO Point Which
Are Likely TO Comprise the
Theater of War.

If we expect to form any definite and
satisfactory idea Of the naval opera
tions which are shortly to occur in Gu
ban ana Atlantic waters, we must
first equip ourselves with important
information in regard to points and dis
tanCes upon the map.
Strange to say. there exists much
confusion in the public mind concern
ing the extended area of land and
water which is destined to figure with
commanding prominence in the grave
International developments of the i'm
mediate future says the Atlanta Con-
stitutiOTn
This observation is true not only with
respect to the remote islands which
have lately formed the subject of so
much interest in connection with the
movements of Spains war fleet. but
also with respect to Cuba, Porto Rico
and Key West.
Some scventy-fiVe or eighty miles in
| tnrVene between Key West on the eX-
treme southernmost point Of the PEN
| nsula of Florida and Havana on the
north coast Of Cuba. Havana, the
present stronghold of the Spanish pow
er in Cuba, is in latitude % degrees 8
minutes and 4 seconds north, and lon
gitude 81 degrees and % minutes west.
| Key West is in latitude - degrees and
| 3? minutes north, and longitude 81 de-
grees and 4S minutes west. Havana
at the present time contains some 2O0,-
600 inhabitants.
Porto Rico is l,200 miles distant from
| Cuba ard is the most remote member
of the West Indies group Of islands, Its
| geographical position is in latitude II
degrees and Sc minutes north, and lon
| gitude 81 dgrees and 10 minutes west
| In length, the island measures 80 miles
| and in average width 36 miles. On aC-
| count Of the distance between Porto
| Rico and Cuba, Spain will he put to
sore straits in the matter of defending
| her possessions.
| But what of the Canary islands? In
the movements of the Spanish fleet
within the past few days these islands
have figured with some prominence
They are located fifty miles west of
Africa, approximately in latitude % de-
ereos and 40 minutes north, and lOngi-
tude Is degrees and 16 minutes west
There are seven Of these islands, and
they contain $3.50 square miles.
The Cape Verde group of islands arc
located 800 miles west of Cape Verde
on the coast Of Africa, between paral-
lels IA and Il degrees of north latitude
ana parallels % and 25 degrees of west
longitude. They contain 1850 square
miles, and are distant some 800 square
milcS from Porto Rico.
With the light which these various
geographical facts throw upon the situ-
alton. we are likely to form some bet.
ter idea of the naval operations which
are likely 10 occur in Cuban and At
