II am not talking now of questionable
amusements. You may find me a trifie
more conservative on that head when we
come to it than some of you imagine. I
speak of the manifestly innocent sports,
Of the play-element% in human nature.
The first class of saints are very solemn
people and impress you as if living in
some future state. They are, as it were,
out of joint with the present. They are
people of only one idea, and they carry
them that we instirctively Danish our
smiles and draw down our faces when
ever they come in sight.
II know ministers who would consider
it an i~nexcusable breach of propriety to
take off their coats and engage in a game
of baseball with the young men in their
congregations, and they would sooner re-
sign their charge than put on a pair OF
boxing gloves. This class of men take no
interest in popular amusements, because
they are clergymen. And here / claim
lieve that it is good for either pulpit or
| pew. Such a mans influence with young
people is practically ended and he is
about ready for translation. The only
| IS one that fills the mouth with laughter
and the tongue with singing. | propose
10 obey the Bible and serve the Lord
with ~gladness; and that il the way | want
you all to serve Him. Have a joyous
| time wherever or whenever you can, but
through all remember to hate everything
that is evil and cleaye to all that is good.
Personally / propose to take all the
legitimate amusement I can in this world.
and when / cross over into the next |
shall take 1t there. Heaven is a place of
infinite enjoyment. as well as rest and re-
ward and singing OF songs and one reason
/ want to go there is to enter upon that
future fullness of JOY. Now, without any
irreverence and in all soiemnity. ! affirm
fhaf there will be amf1seInents in the life
TO come. for II we ommenee there as nj
leave off here. the play element IN our
nature will still be with Us, and make It's
usual demands.

MESSRS. QUIGG AND BIDWELL SILENT.
TALK ABOUT THE RESULT OF THEIR VISIT TO
ADMINISTRATOR PLATT SAID TO
BE DISSATISFIED


While neither Congressman Quigg nor Collector
Bidwell would speak yesterday about their visit to
Albany and the conference regarding proposed po-
lice legislation the coming extra session Of the
Legislature other politicians asserted that matters
had been complicated BY their trip. To quote the
words Of one THE president OF the County Com
m!ttee spoke eagerly and enthusiastically for Q
metropolitan police commission. but his words fell
on unsympathetic ears.
1t learned yesterday that when Mr. Quigg
appeared before the Judiciary Committee Of the
Assembly he presented what he practically de-
clared to be an ultlmatum from the Republican
organization OF this city. He demanded. on the
part Of the organization here. the creation OF
metropolitan police commission. 1t was said oy
certain politicians yesterday that Mr.. Quisg was
not authorized to present ultmatum either 70
the Legislature 10 the Governor. II Is the opin.
lon of many Republicans that his trip to Albany
useless.
u is also known that Senator Plat was not con-
suited about the trip TO Albany. and that he did
not authorize the statement that the Republicans
OF the city would insist upon metropolitan police
commission. He said 10 be much irritated at
the way things were handled. AS matters stand
the indications are that no legislation in relation
the special session OF the Legislature.
Republican politicians in the city last evening

would be best no, to have any LEGISLATION AFFECT:
