withthe Independent in the following
"Hon. John w Mason suggests in a
letter to the Wheeling Intelligencer
that the Republicans call a conven-
ton and nominate a candidate for
United States Senator. Do SO, and
you will not be required to present
his name to the Legislature. The
Democrats like Bert Hart's Heather

At Trinity NJ r. Church Monday Night
Before a large audience at Trinity
M. e. church Monday night the imper-
senator, Charles Underhill of Brooklyn,
gave monologue recital of Sheridan's
Rivals" To say they were pleased
would be putting 1t mildly. Mr.. Under-
hills work was simply superb and his
Interpretation of the eight characters
of the comedy was SO natural that
one could almost see them on the stage.
The comedy is very well written and
full of funny sayings and situations
which were given by the impersonator
in such clever manner that all were
kept in good humor and he was
many times heartily applauded.
The entertainment was under the
auspices of Bible class of young la
dies, taught by Mrs. HUM. The young
ladies acted as ushefs last night. The
proceeds will be devoted to the mis-
sionary fund Of the Sunday school. An
ice cream social followed, which was
attended by all who heard the recital

"BY GRACE YE ARE SAVED"


Was the Subject of Discourse at
Last Nights Revival Service.
Howard avenue Baptist church had
the usual good sized audience in at
tendance upon the revival services last
night w. Fl. Spear spoke on the text
by grace we are saved" His SER
mon was an earnest upholding of
Jesus Christ as the supreme power of
human salvation and deliverance. He
told a number of very touching exper-
fences he had met with in the several
years he had been engaged in gospel
work, especially among men who have
felt the bitter, blighting touch of sin
and have fallen bruised and broken I'M
der it. Yet many Of these men have
been saved by divine grace and have
been raised to newer and better life
by trusting their all in the hands of
loving, pitiful and compassionate saw
Jour. Christ has the Willingness and
the power to make glad every bruised
and broken heart: to bring joy and
sunshine into every blasted and vast
ed life if human will but surrenders to
the divine will and we go trusting and
earnestly seeking His grace. The in
fluences Of childhood were pathetically
touched upon and several vital truths
were thus Illustrated
Rev. D. w. Stoddard led the after
meeting. These after meetings have
become very precious part of these
services, Thus far about dozen
young people have expressed a desire
to follow Christ, and several older ones
have made earnest professions. The
revival spirit has been very strong and
rich blessings have thus far attended
the work.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 22.-In tho Senate this
morning. at tho conclusion of the reading Of

resolution was offered by Mr.. Morgan Of Ala.

The bill to authorize two additional regiments

The bill was opposed by Mr.. Bate of Tonnes

ments idle all over the country, and he thought
that they should be utilized for manning the

fences. Under existing legislation 527 guns
would be in position I59 rune and 49, new riiei
steel mortars. The War Department estimated
that tho $40 mon provided for in the bill would
be sufficient for the present. 1t was very late to
object to employing men to take care of these
guns and to learn 10 handle them. Each of those
guns required as much skill to run as a locomo.
tive or as an ordinary river steamer. The bill
was the SIM pie dictate of common sense. Every
officer OF the army desired it's passage.
Mr.. Cockrell of Missouri, n member of tho
Military Committee, snid that although he had
consistently md Professionally opposed any in
crease OF the infantry or cavalry arms OF the
service, he bad voted in committee for this bill,
because he regarded it as a matter OF absolute
necessity.
Nj; SewelI Of Now Jersey. another member Of
the Military Committee. argued in favor of the
bill as a matter of absolute necessity for the
care OF the guns and Qualifications.
Mr.. Bate advocated his plan of detailing regi.
ments that are now idle to man the forts. and
suggested that the proper plan would be to have
an independent corps that would be known as
