WILL OPEN IN OCTOBER.
Alton Packard or the Slayton Jubilee
Shouters Will Open the Mag
nificent Lecture Course
Arranged for This
City.

The first number of the extensive
lyceum course of attractions that Will
be furnished the people of Grand
junction during the coming fall and
winter will appear on a date in the
latter part of October.
The Slayton Jubilee singers who
made such n hit here last season or
Alton Packard, the famous chalk
,.alyer, who charmed the lyceum
course patrons last spring, will open
the big course, it to be decided in a
few days which one of these attrac-
tions shall appear first.
The date of the entertainment.
whichever 1t may be will probably be
October gath. Rev. James A. Beck
er one of the managers of the course
states both these attractions, one
furnished by one bureau and the
other by another lyceum bureau, hap
pen to be assigned for the same date,
October gath and of course he has
asked that one of the attractions
select new date.
There has been no change in the
personnel of the coming lecture
course which will consist of ~ num-
bers since the full list was published
in the Sentinel several months ago.
All contracts have been closed.
II was thought that Hon. william
Jennings Bryan, who is to be one of
the star attractions of the course,
would appear here in the early fall
but 1t is hardly probable that he will
come until sometime during the win
ter.
The sale of season tickets has been
most satisfactory. and there is but
little question that the cost of the
big course which is the most expens
i've ever arranged for the city and one
of the most expensive and finest ever
contracted for in a western city, will
be easily met. The talent for the
course costs $2,700.
As in the past two years the en-
Iertainments will be given at the Con
gregational church.
Grand Junction is certainly to be
congratulated upon having the oppor-
tunity to enjoy twelve of the finest
attractions the lyceum world affords

SCHMITz GROWS ABUSIVE.

San Francisco, Dec. &.-There was

casion to-day. at a meeting Of the EX-
clusion League, 10 denounce Judge Dunno
and declare that he was bottled up by
the Citizens Alliance, and that this was
the real reason why the Judge refused to
grant him an immediate trial
This is fragrant contempt Of court. The
truth is that Judge Dunno has been very
lenient toward SchmitZ's lawyers. be-
cause ne did not wish to give any chance
for the appellate court 10 give the mayor
a new trial because Of his rulings. Judge
Dunno has tolerated insolence Of Lawyers
Ach and ShOrtridge. and he has permitted
the introduction Of much irrelevant mat
ter. His friends declare he viii continue
this tolerance. as he believes the mayors
TRADE was delivered merely to anger him.
Judge Dunno seems firmly convinced
that SchmitZ is an arch-conspIratOr, who

examples of graft that have been charged
20 Ruef. therefore he does not propose TO
give the mayor any lOOphole for an APP
peal from his decision.

PREACH In MANY TONGUES
Bishop Potter Would Have Episcopal
Service in Foreign Languages.
Ceremonies in German, Italian, and
other Languages Needed to
Reach New Workers,

New York. Dec. 25.-Bishop Potter has
lust proposed a plan Of remarkable
changes in the methods Of the Episcopal
Church It provides for services Of the
church in any language spoken by any
large number Of persons in New York.
At the last meeting Of the archdeacon-
~ OF New York the bishop offered res
olution which was adopted, providing
for the appointment Of a committee Of
three 20 arrange for the holding OF such
services in different parts Of the city.
The rapid change in the character Of
the population Of the city particularly Of
Manhattan, is given as the reason for
the adoption Of this policy, Il is pointed
out that in the part Of the city below
Fourteenth street there were five years
ago four more Protestant churches than
there are now Notwithstanding the in
crease Of 10000 in the number OF inhab-
itants in Manhattan within the past 1--WE
years. there are not as many Protestant
churches by two as there were at the be-
ginning OF this period. The reason as
signed is that most Of the increase in
population is made up Of foreigners who
New York has the most polyglOt popula-
tion OF my great city. including among
its many nationaiities 10000 Italians. TO-
600 Jews, and $1,000 Armenians TO mention
only three Of the large number, the
church at present makes no adequate pro-
vision for reaching these elements Of the
population.
In the course Of his remarks to the
archdeaconry, Bishop Potter said that he
had licensed A man 10 preach in Yiddish.
pointing out that Yiddish was a form OF
language and not religion. and that he
had In view the appointment Of others 10
conduct services in various other Ian
guages. He suggested that St Johns.
being In the Italian district. should be the
scene Of Sunday services entirely IN Ital-
ian. and that German services be held
IN Trinity Church. II necessary. The Yid-
dish services probably will be held in
St Priscilla's, $50 Stanton street, the old
PrO-CathedraI.
In this connection the bishop pointed
out the appropriateness Of this step on the
part Of the church as symbOlized BY the
Chapel Of the Seven Tongues. in connec-
ton with the Cathedral Of st. John the
Divine. which is so planned as TO be tribu-
tary TO the great Central Hail, in which
services are held in English. The work
among the foreign-speaking population.
which Is planned in this connection Is in
tended to be not so distinctively mission
airy work as 10 provide means of bringing
religious services within the reach Of
these who do not speak English and who
otherwise would be deprived of the faciii-
ties of the church.
