"SELF ASSERTION"
The Subject or Baseball Evangelist
Lewis Discourse.
Was Delivered In Young Mems Christian
Association Hall Yesterday.

Edwin NJ. Lewis. pitcher on the Boston
baseball team, delivered an address yes
terday afternoon on "Self Assertion" in
Y. Nj. G. A. hail. bsforo quits large
audience. The service was opened with
singing, followed by prayer, after which
MIR. Lewis was int reduced. He spoke In
an easy manner ana his voice was of good
quality. He held the attention OF his
hearers throughout his discourse.
lie spoke of the universal presence of
self assertion. 1t Is found everywhere In
nature, in the solar and planetary sys-
tens, In all forms of inanimats nature,
even in the stones Of the Held. In the
higher forms of life there Is another form
OF self assertion, 10 is the struggle for ex-
istence. There are life germs, some sur
yiying, Others dying. The animals fight
each other, the trees fight each other.
But IN the higher life we find another
law. We find the mother beginning TO
develop In the human life we find the
true mother, whers the ono who gave life
protects it, The strife OF the mother be-
longs 10 human life. One is carnal
struggle, the other spiritual oue--the
ore selfish, 'he other unselfish Man
should cling 60 the spiritual, for spirit
means diffusion. The man OF policy
bows down To his Inrty In opposition TO
whnt hs knows to bs right The man
of rrincipIe loses himself In duty. True
self assertion Is absolute self shnegatiop.

NO ANNEXATION.

The situation in Washington is
virtually unchanged. Senator Per-
kins has stated to Call reporter
that the passage in the Senate of
the annexation treaty is an impossi-
bility. Our special correspondent
cables that the "joint resolution is
awaited with the deepest interest
by the opposition to annexation who
want an opportunity to publicly de-
nouuce and debate the Infamous
scheme. The failure of the annexa-
tionists to force a vote in the Senate
proves the weakness Of their cause,
and il is reasonable to believe in the
prophecy that annexation for the
present is dead.

LAST NIGHT REHEARSAL.
The Kilohana Plays are very Clever
ly Presented.


There is no more trying ordeal for
those engaged in amateur theatricals
than a dress rehearsal. The house
in gloom with the players in the full
glare OF the stage, the seats vacant
save few occupied by the most
pungent Of critis, the dearly beloved
ones of the family circle, envious
perhaps of the good fortune of
those enrolled in the ranks as com
petitors for histrionic fame and the
gladdening mead OF applause. 1t is
in fact, a nervous aud momentous
occasion and requires no lite nerve
and aplomb to successfully bear the
responsibilities allotted to the indi
vidual.
1t is sincere pleasure to be en-.
abled to record, in anticipation Of
to-nights very hattering verdict by
the public, that the players of the
Kilohans Art League did wonderful
ly we'll at their dress rehearsal last
evening. 1t is seldom that we have
observed such harmony in effect,
conscientious work and charming
grouping among amateurs. There
were, OF course, occasional little cru
dities when self.consciousnes TEN.
porarily asserted itself over the self
forgstfulness Of the art created part ;
or, in other words, when the charac-
ter was forgotten in the Undivided
self. The mere fact Of calling at
tention to this study in technique is
complimentary in itself, for it proves
that this very capable little com
pany is well deserving Of the higher
criticism, an attention, unfortunate
ly, too frequently absolutely un-
necessary in amateur theatrcals
when the only persons Interested
amused, or satisfied are the
"players" themselves.
If the two comedies are given this
evening with the same care and
naturalness as at rehearsal, the
visitors at the Opera House will
have a very pleasant evening and
the company will sleep under well
earned laurels and rose wreaths.

NO ANN ExATIoN THIS SESSION

Treaty Will Be Abandoned After a
Few More Weeks Debate Fate
of the Morgan Bill Also Declared
Very Uncertain - Speaker Reed
in a Position to Easily Defeat
the Scheme of the Jobbers,
Especial Dispatch to The Call
CALL OFFICE, RIeGs House,
Washington, Feb. lO.y
The Hawaiian treaty is dead, The
straw vote alleged TO have been
taken yesterday was fake. The
annexationists lack six votes, and
probably seven. The treaty will
probably be abandoned after few
more weeks of debate. This is the
opinion of both White and Perkins.
The fate of the Morgan bill for
annexation is uncertain. If it comes
to vote it may pass, but the
chances for its consideration in the
House are remote. Speaker Reed is
emphatic in his denunciation OF the
annexation scheme. In converse
tion with a California member of
Congress Reed did not mince his
words, but denounced the proposed
annexation as a job of mercenary
schemers.
The attitude ofthe administration
does not influence Mr. Reed in the
least. He is a man Of positive con-
viclions, and as Speaker of the
House Of Representatives, with
big Republican majority at his back,
can easily defeat the annexation
johbers, He will not only have the
support OF bis party in the House,
but nearly all the talk is now that
after the vote on the treaty, a few
weeks hence, the annexation project
will be- postponed until next Decem-
bsr. This is the opinion of Senator
White.

SATURDAY, FEB, 10, 1898.

Speaker Reed states in emphatical
language that he has not changed
his attitude on the question OF an
nexation as asserted by the subsi-
died press Of Mr.. Dole. He is as
hostile against the move as he was
ten years ago, and nothing can
change his views even if the Repub-
lican party should go to pieces.
