An Original Clergyman.

London has clergyman who keeps q
well-equipped wine cellar under his
church. Ho is known as THE actors par
son." because he loves the stage and is
friendly with its people. He Is the most
constantly criticised preacher In England
today, because he dares to be original.
His name is Rev. II. Ker Gray, and he
is the rector OF ST. Georges chapel Al
bemarle street, one OF the most fash
ionable churches in London.
To Americans st. Georges chapel is In
teresting and best known by reason Of
the fact that here Thackeray's Rev.
Charles Honeymoon ministered.
Dr. Gray's personality is striking. He
is not merely the grandson OF bishop
and the great-grandson of q duke. He Is
something more than an A ID. G.. or an
A. NJ. of Trinity. He is bright vigorous,
versatile, up-to-date.
One of DR. Gray's innovations at ST.
Georges is a ful-hedged orchestra as an
accompaniment to the church services.
No theatre i'm London is bet supplied.
Vocaiists i'm the higher musical world
have also more than once assisted at the
services. IL is not unusual tor Madame
Melba or Madame Nordica TO render q
solo anthem at St. Georges.
That in which Dr. Gray is most truly
original. and for which he has been the
most discussed and criticised. is his
unique program of services.
a few months ago he startled conversa-
tive London by holding what he called
"a second even song" at o'clock on
Sunday evening at which full evening
dress was permitted.
London" said DR.. Gray when he an
nounced the service, especially the West
End OF London. is becoming intensely
secular ON Sunday The average man or
woman no longer foregoes the pleasures
OF the table in order TO be punctual at
church People will dine. My second
even song Is designed with the idea CT
giving them time 10 do this comfortably
and attend divine service afterward"
DR.. Gray has characterized this late
evening service as "A light and cheerful
function, with a sufficiency OF good or
chestral music, during which some of the
best compositions of Bach. Archer, Smsrt.
Batiste or Guilmant are rendered. sol-
lowed by something less In the nature OF
sermon than OF an informal address.
rrAae+e- -ee be comprised IN some 40 or
50 minutes.
As IL is customary for everybody who
is anybody to dress for dinner I'm London
town. the question of evening dress ma
turally arose In connection with the after
dinner service, and the appearance OF
women IN evening gowns, and, OF course.
without hats at the service. created no
end OF discussion. To those unaccus-
toned TO the sight the effect was certan-
ly somewhat bizarre.
DR.. Grays late service on Sunday
nights is by no means the only one OF his
original services; he Is constantly origl-
mating them for special occasions His
attest was Waterloo service" in mem
ory of the Britishers who fell In battle. A
number OF relics from the nelds Of Water
loo were in the church during the service.
