THE Y. M. C. A. MEETING.
Mr.. Nesbit Holds Very Interest
ing Service.

The men who were present at the
meeting of the Young Mems Chris
tiap Association yesterday afternoon
went away with the mcst pleasant
impression. The two duets sung by
Miss Edna Feldmeyler aud Mr.. Wallis
were listened to with married appre-
citation aud manifest pleasure.
The speaker, Mr.. Nesbit. gave one
of those very practical common sense
talks which so appeal to an audience
of men. He took as a basis of his re-
marks part of the 23d chapter of st.
Luke's Gospel and his subject was
"The Issue as Between Jesus Christ
and Caesar. He referred to Caesar
rs the non Christian element in the
world. He closed his very interesting
address by showing the great contrast
between Caesar (the worldly men and
women) and Christ Represented by his
true followers
This is not the first time Mr.. Nesbit
las been to ANNAPOLIS in like capac-
ity. He was one of the speakers last
year at the Naval Academy Associa-
tion, and he is scheduled again for
this year in April. 1t is hoped that
when Mr. Nesbit again comes to An
napolis in the Spring that the city as
sociation viii be again successful in
securing him 10 SPEAK at the Sunday

ternoon the residents of Prince George
street from the steamboat wharf TO
Randall street, were startled by the
olatter of horses feet on the asphalt
paving. They ran to windows and
