REWARDS FOR BOY SINGERS
Medals aud Books Given TO Mem
bers OF Choir at Trinity
Cathedral.

Singing is preaching the gospel" said
Rev. George Plat in presenting medals
and books to the choir boys at Trinity ca
thedral Sunday, land you do not know
how much good is done in the world by
singing. You have no idea how many bleed
ing hearts you heal, nor how many burdens
you tighten each service. To attain ex-
cellence in singing one is required to study
and practice and work earnestly, but l
would not have you think that excellence in
singing is all that is necessary in the world
You shout study to excel in reverence, in
obedience to the commands of the Lord.
and. as the garments YOU wear indicate
that you are in the service of the Lord.
you should strive to set an example for
others and attain excellence in your lv-
ing
Rev. Mr.. Plat presented medals and
books to the choir boys as follows: Morley
Young, gold medal for general usefulness;
Robert Mccormack. silver medal for sing
ing; Lee Mitchell, silver medal for good
conduct; Joe Barton. for conduct and at
tendance, Kipling's Indian Tales" The
other members Of the choir were presented
with a book each. A feature Of the exer-
cises was the solo, angels Ever Bright

IMMIGRATION ON INCREASE
Additions to New YOrk's Formulation
from Foreign Countries
Are Large.

ALBANY, n. Y, March 3l.-The quar-
terly bulletin Of the New York state de-
partment OF labor shows that for the last
quarter ending January l., 1902, the de-
creased idleness, in building, clothing and
baking trades was noticeable. Immigra
ton at the port of New York has been
increasing rapidly. The number of ar
rivals in the fourth quarter of 1901 was
93,62s, as compared with 74,432 one year
ago, and 1926 in the preceding quarter
Of 1901. The increase was 26 per cent over
the fourth quarter Of 1900 and u per cent
over the third quarter of 1901. The people
from southern Italy retained the lead by
contributing 26 per cent OF the immigra-
ton, the Hebrews following with IL per
cent, the Germans with 10 per cent and the
Poles with 8 per cent, the proportional in
crease OF the latter since 1900 being larger
than that of any other nationality.
A table shows the increases and decreases
In 1901, in the rates OF wages Of members
Of labor organizations. The net result OF
all the changes was that 5O,253 members of
labor unions gained a weekly addition to
their wages OF $S6,sO7, which is equlvalen,
to an advance of $1.73 each per week.
The first large scale system of pensions
for s-uperannuated employees in this state
has been established by the Metropolitan
Street railway Of New York City. At the
age of 70 years employees will be retired on
pension, those who have been in the serv,
ice of the company twenty-five years re-
ceiving 20 per cent Of their wages, and for
thirty-ive years service a pension amount
ing to 40 per cent of wages.

In the course Of extended remarks on
the early tombs OF the ancients, she said
that the explorations in these burial places
furnish abundant proof Of the transition
from the neolithe %(stone) worker TO the

The modes Of burial, she said, were
three in number The first was to cut the
body into parts, another to scrape the
flesh from the bones and the third to lay
the body on its left side, double up the
legs. thrust the forearms out in front and
place the hands over each other in front OF
the face. She told also OF the ornaments
usually placed on the body.
Rev. Newton Mann and others entered

MISCHIEF WROUGHT BY A LAMP
Bursting Of an IIIumInatOr Sets Fire
TO Mrs. Weber's Lodging
House.

The explosion Of a lamp at the rooming
house of Mrs. Lucy Weber, 500 South Nine
teenth street, at 9 o'clock last night, set
fire to the building and did about $3.50
damage to that and the contents before the
flames were extinguished. The, lamp had
been left in the hall and when it exploded
the flames spread to the sitting room,
causing an exodus of Mrs. Weber and her
roomers and doing considerable damage in
that part Of the house before the arrival
Of the department.
At Z o'clock Sunday morning the depart
ment was called to Nineteenth and Hick-
DRY streets to ~extinguish a small fire that
threatened to destroy a c~ulvert, the prop
erty Of the Burlington Railroad company.
The blaze originated from the burning OF
ZONE trash by a crowd OF small boys. Very
little damage was done.

Amusefnents
At the boyd.

Williams and Walker and their aggrega-
tion proved magnetic enough Sunday after
noon and evening to test the seating ca
pacity of the Boyd theater to its fullest
extent and likewise the laughing propensity
Of those who occupied the seats. But a
few years ago this pair entered the dra-
matte field and today they are perched
comfortably on the top rung Of the ladder
OF fame as colored entertainers. Bert Will
liams could make an Egyptian mummy
laugh with his dry droll comedy, while
George Walker is the black Chesterfield Of
the American stage. He wears swell
clothes with the grace of a John Drew and
is not a bad singer in the bargain. Their
vehicle, The Sons OF Ham," is the same
in name as they offered here a season ago,
but by the addition OF new music, new
comedy and new specialties 1t has been
brought thoroughly up to the minute and
would not be recognized as the same piece.
The new song, my Little Zulu Babe" in
the first act, by Williams and Walker, is
not only well sung, but ~cleverly presented
asNwell. The scene opens with a tropical
setting and shows Mr.. walker in the cos
tune of a Zulu princess. After the first
verse Mr.. Williams enters In the guise OF
a Zulu warrior. A chorus of dusky Zulu
maidens concealed behind palms make their
appearance opportunity and the general eff
feet is decidedly pleasing. Miss walkers
Hannah from Savannah" with grotesque
dance, won several rounds Of applause.
George Catlin's Chinese impersonations
we're realistic. Mr.. Williams song, 1.-THE
Phrenologist Coon" was a big hit, while
Mr.. Walkers Elegant Darkey Dan" and
Leader Of the Ball" won encores at both
performances. All Of the specialties are
p~raiseworthy and the entertainment highly
commendable throughout.

AZ the ~OrPheum.


The entertainment offered at the orpheum
for the present week has no expensive
feature acts, but is purely a variety
DILL thoroughly clean in every respect and
every act worthy OF commendation for some
one thing or another. 1t would be I'M
just to the others to say that any one Of
the seven on the program made a greater
hit with either the matinee or evening
audience than smother. Considered purely
from an artistic standpoint the musical act
or the five Noses is perhaps entitled to
the distinction Of being given first mention
Their act is done in front OF a special
stage setting, showing a Venetian scene.
Inc members OF the troup arrive in a gon-
dola and correctly costumed do a musical
act which easily eXcells anything of the
kind that has been offered at this theater
during the season. The comedy acrobatic
act OF the three Blossoms also proves to be
the peer of it's kind in vaudeville. Louise
Dresser, who is considered the Lillian Rus
sell OF the vaudeville stage, offers a now
city in the rendition OF a burlesaue illus
trated picture song. At both performances
the audience was loath to let Miss Dresser
leave the stage. Jack Norworth has no
equal as a monologue comedian. His stories
are new and quite original, while his par
odies are beyond comparison. He Is doing
his act in white face this season, which
adds to its entertaining value. Jessie
Couthoui tells stories and %recites in such
a pleasing manner that the audience rs un>
able to get enough OF her act, and last
night she was forced to respond to encore
after encore until she was too fatisued to
do anything more. The four Collins, fancy
dancers, Scott and Wilson. comedians, and
the kinedrome complete a bill we'll worth
seeing.

The monument is approached by a flight
OF broad stairs and in the middle arises a
magnificent pedestal upon which rests the
equestrian statue Of General Grant. The
central portion Of the space is elevated
above the two wings and the Grant eques-
trian is surrounded by four lions, each on a
separate base, representing courage and
strength. On each side Of the Grant
pedestal is a has relief, one showing in
fantry on the march and the other in
fantry on the double quick. Al each end
OF the grandstand is to be a large pedestal.
One OF these holds a group OF cavalry charg-
ing and the other shows a battery going
into action.
The general architectural scheme repre-
cents Grant as having ordered a charge
OF a division Of his army. The Infantry
Is going forward through the center with
the cavalry and artillery on either flank.

himself, but the instrument with which he
