BanneF-Rev. Ranaalrs Address.

Yesterday was full OF interest at the
First Methodist Episcopal church. The
Chief interest arose from the fact that 1t
was the ninth anniversary OF the organ
ization OF the Erworth League, the de-
nominational society of the young people
OF the Methodist churches. II was origi-
nai!y formed May Is. 1889, by ihs volun-
tary consolidation Of the Young Peoples
Methodist Alliance, the Oxford League,
the Young Peoples Christian League. the
Methodist Young Peoples Union and the
Methodist Episcopal Alliance. After the
years OF marvellous prosperity. the new
society was officially recognized bx the
church In May, 1892. There ere row E,-
$50 senior chapters, with 1.Zs5o00 members
and $3.50 junior chapters with 3S00Oo
members. whiting this single denomina-
ton. Their official paper. the Epworth
Herald. reached 100000 circulation more
than a year ago.
The local chapter at the First Methodist
Episcopal church has been remarkably
prosperous Of late. As high as thirty
eight new members have been received at
a single service. Last Monday night they
had the best attended and most interest
ing business meeting held for a number of
years. A parliamentary drill given by
Friday night they will give a social. The
junior chapter. under the superinten hence
or Mrs L. q. LAppy, is not second in
work. Last Friday night they had de-
iightful social. and invited their elders TO
programme. every number Of which was
encored.
The anniversary exercises were held
last night in place OF the usual league
service, and In charge OF the pastor. The
church WAS beautifully decorated for the
day Red. white and blue festoons were
hung about the gallery. A large national
flag, Cuban flag and the banner Of the
league were gracefully arranged back OF
the pulpit, and some simple floral effects
tassefuiiy completed the whole.
At the regular evening service. the pas
tor. the Rev. Edwin NJ Randall, jr., de-
iivered a sermon especially to the young
people on the subject Man. an Analysis"
He showed that the physical magnitude
OF man Is not comparable to his intrinsic
value. Though the most remarkable crea-
ture In his physica. and intellectual ma
lures, yet he cannot be explained without
recognizing his spiritual nature. Both
his nature and his environments show
why God has placed an immeasirable
value upon him. so they indicate his
measureless possibilities ard the great
purposes In his destiny for which eter-
nifty only contains room. Youth Is a
priceless season fer attaining these possi-
b.lities.
The church IL enjoying unusual pros
perity. Since the beginning of the eceIes.-
astical year in September. about 100 men,
bcrs have been received by letter and
about the same humble. by probation.

The fact that farce-comedv has been tire
attraction at the Third Avenue theater
for a month did not prevent that popular
house from being crowded to the doors
last evening to witness the opening per-
Torrance OF 'McGinty the Sport which
is In for weeks run at that house.
'.McGinty the Sport" varies very slight
~ from the ordinarily accepted idea OF
farce-comedy. There is the absence OF
plot, the pretty girls. thu clever comedians
and the more or less ant!quated jokes-an
assortment, some Of which are more than
up to date. Then there were the clever
specialt,es and that Is farce-comedy.
And one farce-comedy is different from
another only in the quality of such details.
'MoGinty the Sport is not the best
farce-comedy that has visited here this
season. Nor is II by any means the worst.
1t strikes happy medium; the action is
fast, and the audience Is kept IN good
humo.' through three acts of fun and nom
sense.
There is a great deal OF excellent talent
in the company.
