RACE PRIDE.

The Congressional Lyceum was
I,rgeiy attended last Sunday after
mon Mr.. Richard Z. Toomey OF
Creenyille, Tenn, read a special
rritten paper, entitled Race Pride. "
incidentally he called attention to the
.ripnti6c views as TO the cause or
origin of the various colorS and types
ii ihe human race and advanced the
oniniou that the Mosaic or Biblical
history of creation was correct, and
that man was a special creation OF
God. and not the result of evolution.
Al the conclusion of Mr.. Toomey S
address, Editor w. Calvin Chase,
called the presidents attention to the
fact that Prof. p. H. Murry of St Louis,
No., one of oldest and ablest colored
journalists in the country, was pres
ent, and ask unanimous consent that
he be heard. There being no objec-
lion Prof. MURRAY came forward and
was greeted with applause. He had
spoken but few sentences before all
present were convinced that he was
thoroughly familiar with biology, au-
thopology, egyptology, archaeology
and the many other "ologies OF which
Mr. Toomey had spoken Prof Muir
ray is not only an able editor, but is
well versed in phrenology and that
aar early day he would favor the
yceum with a lecture on this very
important subject. Mr.. Toomey's pa
per was discussed by Messrs. Tyler,
Cooper Stewart, Davis and Miss
Mamie Burrows.
Next Sunday at $3.50 p. m. Prof.
Hershaw. president of the Bethel Lit.
rray and Historical Association will
read paper before the lyceum. Spe-
ual music by the Junior choir of the

! The management of the Columbia
takes pleasure in announcing the en-
gagement for the week of March ID, OF
Madame Janauschek and a company
OF unusual strength in the new play,
what Dreams May Come"
The fact that Madame Janauschek
is the greatest living actress OF her
type upon the stage today, and that
type the highest aud most noble mani
festation of the players genius, renders
her appearance of unusual interest to
all lovers of great acting.
"What Dreams May Come" affords
Madame Janauschek an opportunity to
appear in a singular and striking
character, that of the Countess Dem
itri, a Russian woman who meets her
son in London under circumstances
which afford many powerful situations.
| The play is an absolute novelty, and
while Madame Janauschek has not for
years had role of greater strength,
yet the play moves forward in an at
moSphere of youth and sentiment and
quiet comedy. The end is happy.
The play is the work of Paul Kester
who is himself no stranger to washing
ton, having lived four years at Gunston
on the Potomac just below the city.
The company which will appear
with Madame Janauschek, includes
players of such sterling worth as Ed
mund Collier, Joseph Whiting and
Myron Calice.
Maude Banks who. has recently done
such wonderful work in the Independ-
ent Theatre in New York is also in the
cast. In John Blair, to whom the part
of Roger Hazleton is entrusted, Nine.
Janauschek' S management believe that
they have secured the most able and
gifted of all the younger Leading men.
He has but recently quilted Daniel
Frohman's forces and next season
plays alternate leads with Julia Mar
lowe. Other members of the company
are Misses Washburn, Miss de Wolf,
Mr. Holland, Mr.. 1ayman and Mr..
Hepworth. Special scenery will be
used.

IN the course Of an interview: II

Press news, but owing to the delicate
situation, the board has decided to
make nothing public. I do not know
what testimony may develop or when,
and 1t is only fair to the Spanish gov
eminent not to give the public the
testimony until all has been received
and the findings have been considered.
You may say that this
Rule Is Absolute.

enforcement of it. and all stories Dur-
porting to come from the court should
be set down as false. l have no idea
as to how long the court will remain

Gunner Charles Morgan, of the cruiser

STANDARDS ARE WORRIED.

They Say Uncle sam Is Making
Great Military Preparations. 1
Madrid, Feb. %. An official agency
says: The impartial publishes a dis
patch for which it must assume full
responsibility as it does not accord
with the relations actually known to
exist between the Spanish and Ameri-
can governments. 1t is dated from
New York, and reads:
Great military preparations are be-
ing made. The forts are being rein
forced. Three hundred artillerynen
have been sent to Sandy Hook and the
naval reserves have been ordered to
hold themselves in readiness. The gun
cotton and slnolleless powder factories
are working night and day and it is
generally believed that great crisis
in tie relations between the United
States and Spain is imminent
The government has received no in
formation tending to confirm the dis
patch from New York to the Impair
cial with reference to alleged extensive
military preparations in the United
States. Admiral Bermejo, the minis
ter Of marine, visited United States
Minister Woodford in order to COM
municate, it is supposed, dispatches
with reference to the Maine. The
u Vizcaya will leave New York today or

Die for it's discipline. The so-called
prosecution, which is. thus proved to
have been more properly persecution,
is left absolutely nothing on which to
rest.
It had been a foregone conclusion
since the taking of testimony ceased
that nothing had been developed to
warrant any serious censure, and the
only difference of opinion was, as to
whether or not the commission. would
take occasion to administer some mild
criticism, one or two facts having de-
Veloped which to some minds. seemed
to warrant something Of the kind. The
view OF the commission, however, was
the view of the majority that not even
criticism was warranted, unless it be
criticism Of the failure of the state up
to this time to make entirely adequate
provision for the detention Of insane
criminals.
The commission, after reviewing the
testimony presented, and touching
briefly on conditions as they found
them at the prison, concludes it's re-
port as follows:
- We find, and so report, that none Of
the charges against any Of the officers
OF the prison of cruelty to convicts, or
OF any other character, have been sus-
tanned, and we exonerate them all
from any suspicion Of improper treat
ment of the convicts under their
charge; and we find, and so report,
that the prison is in excellent condition
both as place for confinement of
criminals and as to it's general conduct
and management, and so thoroughly
were we convinced on all these points
that we congratulate the state upon its
possessing such an unexceptional penal
institution as the state prison at Still
water. All Of which is most respect
fully submitted.
