WV. c. A. WINTER WORK
Getting UNDER way

Enthused by the success Of the
classes of the Y. NJ. c. A. in the past
few years, the members of the educa-
tional committee of the association,
cooperating with the officials and in
structors. are making plans for the
resumption of fall and winter work,
which it is thought will be under way
by October 4. The date for the
opening of the physical exercise class
has not been decided on, but it is
likely that these classes will start
about October /.
It is the object of the instructors
and members of the educational de-
partment to enroll the largest class
that has ever attended the Y. NJ. c.
A this fall. The local institution is
the holder of the Schenk Memorial
Cup for one year. and has also been
awarded an honor diploma for rank
/ ing as the highest branch Of the as
sociation in the United States in ef-
! fciency instruction. On each count.

for six months.

and it is thought that on this account
a big increase in educational classes
is practically assured. A desire of
Wilmington commercial men, who are
in need of young men with the train
ing the Y. NJ. c. A. affords, to increase
the classes has been shown.
Two classes in mechanical drawing
will be formed. one under the head
of Charles c. Spieglehalter and the
other under Andrew Jackson.
Several changes in the faculty have
been made recently p. Warren
Green will teach business arithmetic
and English in the place Of L. A.
Davis; the present educational secre-
tary. W. T. Twombly, will replace
e. f. Ayres in the department Of
chemistry, and Andrew Jackson
comes as instructor in mechanical
drawing in the stead of G. G. Penny
William Mckinney will be in charge
of the boys evening work.
A record enrolment in the physical

work in this line will be taken w

New News Of Yesterday
LincolD's Address at
Gettysburg
BY Holland

The late Edward Mcpherson, who
represented in Civil War days the
Gettysburg, CPa.,) district in Con-
gress. and who was afterward clerk
OF the House of Representatives,
cherished among his most valued
recollections of public life his trip
from Washington to Gettysburg win
President Lincoln in the fall OF 1868.
Mr.. Mcpherson, as a representative TO
Congress of the Gettysburg district
was apparently selected to accom-
pany President. Lincoln from wash
lngton to the battlefield where the
Federal cemetery was to be dedicat-
cd. In 1882, shortly after Mr.. Nc
Pherson became clerk of the House
Of Representatives, had an oppor-
tunity to chat with him and ask him
a question which I had for some
time been anxious TO receive an au-
thoritative answer to.
I had heard various statements re-
specting the first recognition of the
masterpiece which at last the world
recognized Lincoln's Gettysburg ad
dress TO have been. Mr.. Mcpherson
said There were some who were
upon the platform and who heard the
very fine address which was delivered
by Edward Everett. who, Immediately
after Lincoln spoke, made comparison
between that brief address and the
scholarly address of Everett, saying
that while the latter was a wonderful
composition nevertheless Lincoln's
was an inspiration Of genius. How
ever. it is impossible to say who It
was who first made public acknowl-
edgement of the dignity, the power
and the sublimity of Lincoln's brief
address. l presume there were a
number who after having read this
address recognized that it was to
Eecome a classic.
"The first of those actively associ-
ated with President Lincolns admins
sration who made public recognition
Of this address was. / believe, the
Secretary of War, Edward NJ Stan.
ton, who said to company of friends
q few days after these addresses were
delivered, that while Everett's Ions
speech was fully equal to any of his
memorable Orations nevertheless Mr.
Lincoln's brief speech-which in prin
took no more than a paragraph-was
an inspiration of the highest genius
and was also a finer revelation Of the
capacity of the English language tC
embody sublime thought than was {,
be discovered in the address of Ev
erett, although that was probably al
learned an address as was ever given
Secretary Stanton said that a com
parison of these two addresses re
vealed the difference between grea
talent combined with great learning
and supreme genius"

leys after me, but safely reached our
trench again and jumped into one of
the craters.'
Then the noncommissioned officer
continued:
THE Frenchmen believed them
selves sure of their success, but our
lieutenant was ready for them. He
sent eight men ahead into the craters
and the fire of this little detachment
moved the enemy down when he
came on In close formation In the
meantime our machine guns had been
brought into action and the French
were driven back in front and at our
flank
But the section of the trench for
which we fought had become useless
to US. We gave it up and slowly re-
treated, keeping the enemy at a re-
spectful distance by heavy rifle fire.
For short while the enemy took
possession of our destroyed ditch, but
he could not hold it. When we re-
took it by a counterattack we found
it filled with the bodies of dead
French soldiers. We quickly dug our
selves in again, but tomorrow the re-
paired trench may be in the hands OF
the enemy once more. Then we will
have to retake 1t again, and so il
