OF the most spirited and enthusias-
tic debates ever delivered in this

the debate for the affirmative with
logical, witty and iorcible argu-
ment that Immediately set his OPP
ponen,s to thinking. Roy's argu-
ment was enforced by those of
John White. Francis Robinson and
Carl Lesher. The principal ex-

The third regular meeting of the
Columbian Literary Society was
held in Miss Lyons room Friday
afternoon. Although the members
have given no special attention TO
literary work, the rendering OF their
program gave evidence of ability
and faithful preparation. The
first number on the program was
careful and well prepared sketch
OF the life OF Marguerite Fuller by
Miss Ora Eddy. The sketch was
very instructive and entertaining.
Miss Lucy Rockwell's recitation
was somewha. brief, but very
amusing and was the cause OF much
! laughter by the audience. One OF
the most pleasing features OF the
program was the music OF the
mandolin club. The representa-
tives OF the club we're Miss Pearl
Cunning, Roy Marshall, Emil and
Ira Wolf. The harmony was per-
feet aud the time, although diff
cult, was observed throughout
They received a hearty encore.
The recitation by Miss Olive
Wieland was very entertaining and
the mirth of the audience was again
very pleasantly aroused. Ohm
Sebree's extemperaneous address
concerning the most urgent needs
OF the society gave evidence that a
student OF the Columbian high
scool is able to speak intelligently
and moments notice. The la
dies quartette, composed OF Misses
Cunning, Battey. Rockwell and
Burnett, rendered very difficult
selection and in manner that was
certainly creditable TO the young
ladies. The question debated was,
"Rcsolved, That the Beers were
justified in declaring war against
England. Affirmative, Frank
Turley and Mabel Cartwright,
Negative, Grace Wetherby and
and Kenny Woods. The debating
OF the question was full OF energy
and the wit OF the participants
caused the debate to be very in
tercsting.
The third program Of the Adel-
phia Literary society, comprising
the fourth and fifth classes, under
the direction OF Prof. Cole. was
rendered last Friday afternoon.
The rendering OF the program gave
evidence of great enthusiasm Tor
the work and OF the most careful
and extended preparation. Every
member OF the society certainly
brought credit upon himself, his
director and his society. Miss
Mabel Mudge's recitation was
very entertaining and was well
delivered. The essay by Miss
Clio Sughrue was very instructive
and evidenced thorough mastery
of the subject A piano solo by
Carl Lesher was very commend
able number OF the program. The
solo was most enthusiastically en-
cored but as he only had the one
piece Of music, he was not able to
crafty the wish Of the audience.
BY special request he rendered the
same selection at the close of the
meeting. The recent events, as
reported by John Russell, were in
structive. "Ancient Mexico" was
the subject of a well written essay
by Pedro Montoya. The illus
trated lecture by Earl Selects was
a very pleasant feature Of the pro-
gram. He lectured about hydro
gen, and generated quantity ol
that gas before the audience. The
piano and violin duet by Miss
Myrtle Marshall and Miss Grace
Bidwell was well received by the
audience. The question for de-
bate, "Resolved, That Foot Ball

MEADE sconns WIFE DEsERrEH.
He Had Fooled the Magistrate Months Ago,
but Won't Get Another Chance.


Magistrate Meade. In the Essex Market police
court yesterday. delivered to a prisoner one OF
the sharpest lectures heard In that court for n
long time. Tho prisoner was one Herman +.
Richter. who was charged with abandoning his
wife and her two children. Richter was ar
raigned on the same charge before Magistrate
Meade In the Harlem police court just eighteen
months ago. His wifo then said that her hus-
band was earning $50 week and he was
ordered TO pay her so q week. At the time he
seemed penitent and promised that he would
pay $l2 a week, and the Magistrate parolod
him In order that he might obtain bondsman
Richter promptly disappeared. and his wife
took in sewing to support herself and his
children
MAGISTRATE Meade didn't let the case drop.
Hc told Mrs. Richter I! she ever hoard any
thing OF her husband to let him know and he
would issue warrant for his arrest at any
time. A week ago the woman learned that her
husband was staying at a house in Third
avenue. and informed Mr. Meade. who made
out q warrant. Richter moved. but he was dis
covered on Monday at 40 Nassau street, whore
he was conducting q musical boy agency. Ho
was sarrested;andtnken to court but the Magls-
afternoon, so he ordered that Rchter be locked
UP over night.
Don't let that man out on bail" he said,
unless l see the bondsman and approve OF
him"
Richter didn't get out He was arraigned
again yesterday afternoon and began 70 object
TO his detention. but Magistrate Meade shut
him OF.
Don't talk to me-" said the Magistrate
i have been looking for you year and half
week 70 your wife. She Is working and shaving
with her aeedle to send her two children to
school. She IL q, good woman, Here you arc
earning plenty OF money. wearing good clothes
and carving gold watch and chain. I've got
you now and II you don't pay her You viii 90
to tho City Prison for ak months. When those
six months are up you will he put back for
another ak months unless you help to support
your family. I leave this court to-day, but I'll
leave instructions behind for the next Magis-
trate."
Magistrate Meade then stood UP and read
this memorandum addressed to succeeding
Magistrates:
Herman I. Richter. held for abandonm ent is q
very tricky unreliable person, has violated several
paroles, and has treated his wife and family In tho
most inhumane and scsndalous manner. | respect
