CHURCH OF THE PRESIDENTS.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE
Church of the Presidents as the
New York Avenue Presbyterian
church is known. because of the large
number of Presidents who have wor-
shipped there will observe its one
hundreth anniversary during the com
ing week. There will be historical ad
dresses by men conspicuous in ma
tional affairs and by ministers who
hold high positions in the organiZa
ton of the Presbyterian church OF the
United States.
The New York Avenue Presbyter
ian church dates its origin from the
Street Presbyterian church in 1903.
The pastor OF that church was the
Rev Mr.. Lowrie, a clerk in the treas
ury. In 1920 the second Pres
byterian church was organized. The
congregation met in the corridor of the
old navy department building, which
was offered free of charge for that
purpose. Later the F Street church
and the Second church were CONSOLE
dated into theNew York Avenue Pres
byterian church.
John Quincy Adams was identified
with the Second Presbyterian church
and once rescued 1t from bankruptcy
President Andrew Jackson attended
the Second church and figured con-
p spicuously in the quarrel Of the con-
gregation over Mrs. Eaton. Peggy
O'Neill," who had stanch friend in
"Old Hickory" Among the other presi
dents who attended the two older
churches and the New York Avenue
church were James K. Polk, Franklin
Pierce. James Buchanan, Abraham
Lincoln and Andrew Johnson. The
pew occupied by Mr.. Lincoln has never
been removed. 1t is small, of dark
oak, and its old fashioned appearance
is in striking contrast with the other
modern appointments.
Among the distinguished men who
now worship at the New York Pres
byterian church are Associate Justice
John NJ. Harlan Of the supreme court,
Secretary Wilson of the agricultural
department, Senator German OF Mary
land, Senators Burrows and Alger OF
Michigan. Senator Blackburn of Ken
lucky, and other members of congress
and government officials.

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 1.-THE Da-
nish capital is entertaining an extra
ordinary gathering of royalties. who
have assembled to celebrate the forti-
