Marie Cahill will present Nancy Brown at the Hyperion on Saturday night, October 3.
 The Boston Post says: Not even the torrid temperature was sufficient to pre- vent the host of friends charming Marie Cahiil has made here by her excellent work in the past from filling the Hollis Street theatre to it's capacity last even- ing. It was the lady's initial appear ance in this city as a star, and she sus- tained to the full the reputation that has preceded her. for she is certainly entitled to place-and a leading one in stellar ranks.
 There is no actress at present who is so true comedienne. It is seldom that much abused word "unctious' can be aptly applied, but it fits Miss Cahil's hurnor to a ricety. She has a wonder fully keen appreciation of the redicul- ous and a refined sense of fun; and her manner of imparting it to her audience is very artistic. Adding to these talents a handsome presence, a pleasing and cleverly handled voice and an ability to make every word of dialect song count. small room for wonder is left that she has jumped so suddenly and pronouncedly into popular favor as a star r.

Grand Opera House.

The Little Church Around the Cor ner,a which was one of last seasons big successes. will be presented at the Grand Opera house tonight for three nights and Saturday matinee.
 In the presentation of the play this season, Messrs. Vance & Sullivan prom ise. a company of exceptional ability, and an excellent scenic display. The story tells of the estrangement of hus- band and wife. through the machina- tions of desperate william; and shows the loyalty of the wife, who is unjustly accused of infdelity, and the final re- conciliation at the Little Church Around the Corner" brought about by the influence of an innocent little tot. A thrilling abduction scene is shown, where the mother smashes a window and descends to the street by rope fire line. in pursuit of the william who has stolen her child A divorce court trial, in which the husband tries to get possession of the child, is both pathetic and cemieal The struggle for life in the Flatbush Insane asylum, in which the william is overpowered and thrown though a window, is an intensely excit- ing one.
 In the tittle scene of the play, the famous Little Church. is shown bril- liantlv illuminated. in the midst of a furious snow storm. This is claimed to be one of the most beautiful stage pictures ever presented.
 Flight BelIs'' will be presented at the Grand Opera house on Monday. Tues day and Wednesday next week. with matinee Wednesday.
 There is no william in Byrne Brothers reiuvenated Flight Bells.' but there is plenty of fun, trick scenery, good music and clever specialties. The piece has been seen here so often that little need be said in praise of its many ex- cellent features. All the former suc- cesses in the way of trick effects are retained and many new things added. It still presents the great revolving ship scene. the, trick wagon, the hustling octopus, the weird trunk, doors and chairs. and numerous new features. Incidentally number of pleasing spec ialities are introduced. No one can help but admire the fine acrobatic work of the John Byrne troupe of acrobats.

Home

will be received at the home Tuesday after
noon, November "a, from to O'Clock.
This institution is for the protection and
assistance of young girls of good moral
character, most of whom come from a
distance to seek employment.
The following instance shows the success
full work Of the home. One girl having
passed her childhood on a large plantation
was left an orphan, the Oldest of eight. No
one within miles could read and write intel
ligently, and there were no opportunities for
education. This girl came to Washington
and while at the home obtained employment
at a small salary, and by exercising UNI
ceasing self denial assisted her next young
sisters and brother to support them
selves. while by their concerted unselfish-
ness they together educated the four young
er members of the family. -. ,.....-. o..
From a small beginning the home has en-
larged it's work so that the present building
is inadeQua te,, and the board of trustees is
obliged to deny admission to from twenty
five to thirty girls month on account Of
lack of accommodation. Many girls are
obliged to leave the hospitals before they
are strong enough to work. and they are
kept in the home and given every care and
attention until they fully recover. Knowing
the pressing need the board of trustees
wishes to enlarge the home In the near fu
ture.
The members of the board of trustees will
receive their friends Tuesday afternoon,
November "A, when the home will be open
to inspection.

ADOPT BASIS OF UNION.
Associate Reformed Presbyterians and
United Presbyterians.

At the recent meeting of the Associate
Reformed Presbyterian synod of the south,
held at Winnsboro, s. c., ]. Altheus john
son of this city was elected a member of
the board of trustees of the synod to sue
coed himself, and Henry L. Elliott of Co.
lumbia, S. c., was elected a member to sue
coed the late Henry E. Bonner of Due West,
s. c.
The most important matter before the
synod was the subject Of organic union
with the United Presbyterian Church. A
basis OF union, agreed upon by committees
of the two denominations. was reported to
the synod and adopted. but not until after
discussion of interest which conferred
chiefly around the danger of being con-
fronted with the question Of social equality
between the races. This question. 1t is said.
Is likely to arise If the two churches should
unite, as the northern denominations have
not yet found 1t necessary in their church
ana1rs to adopt the policy of having the
negroes in all church matters maintain sep
arate and Independent organizations. wholly
distinct from the whites.
The synod guarded this point by adopting
as part Of the basis Of union the following
provision: 1T Is specifically agreed that col
cred congregations shall not come under the
jurisdiction of southern white presbyteries
except by consent of such presbyterian
This provision was the only amendment
H.aue ny the SYNOD 10 the basis OF union as
agreed upon by the committees of the re-
spective denominations
Under the basis of union thus adopted by
the seceders, upon which, however, the gen.
eral assembly of the United Presbyterian
church has not yet formally acted. the
synod Of the south is to retain its name,
Its corporate rights and privileges, the con-
troll of its colleges and theological seminary
at Due West. s. c.. and the nagement of
all funds belonging to those institutions.
The dOctrinal standards are declared to be-
the confession of faith and the catechisms,
as now received by the Associate Reformed
Presbyterian Church, together with the tes-
timony of the United Presbyterian Church.
except that THE Associate Reformed Pres
hyterian synod shall not be understood as
subscribing to the 14th article of the tes-
timony." The Nth article is the one that
dealt with the subject Of slavery.
