tcasted. the attendance was very large,

kca to erect u church as memorial to
Professionalism in the city of Speyer-on-
kEe-Ehs,,e, and asked the hearty support

!: Read THE ADDRESS.
| On account of his slight knowledge OF
aa,c English language. DR.. BeEschlag read
his address. which was admirable in every
way. His pronunciation is not very dis
E1inct, and in this way he suffered a DIS
advantage.
/ The committee was disappointed in the
collection Only about s125 were sub
tscribed, and of these DR.. Mcneil coll
Aected about $50 eft the morning service
lat his church Sunday. This Is very
small collection and did not at all meet
H11e sdeas of the pastors. They wished
lat least to contribute sufficient to pur-
chase one of the eight small windows to
be placed In the structure, but, as TINS
would cost $3.50. the idea is impract lcable-
There may. however. be several more
contributions before the Doctor leaves on
"wednesday. He will so from here to
washington and will preach dn Baltimore
on Sunday next. AS has been stated.
kwo-thirds Of the cost of the church have
been raised In Europe and 1t is the wish
tof DR. Beyschlag that Americans con-
n1buse the remaining third.
