Riidcllffi Tims Comiturcil llio Three Shepherds of tho president's Cliurcli Flowersaiid potted Plants, ilitslc und Crowds Made therScene u Memorable One. The Installation service of Rev. T. De Witt Talmage as co-pastor of the First rresbjlcrian Church, as ordered by the Presbytery of Washington, was ob.ercd last night. The. palpi t was so thickly planted with palms that their rollige cump'elcly shaded the crimson carpel. Chrytantheiuums and other fall flowers were banked against the pulpit and shed their soft perfume tbroaghouttho church. Everything seemed to harmonize, did harmonize, with the golden legend that arched the pulpit with a semi circle of gilt: " Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty." By 6:30 o'clotk a mass of people pressed against the doors of the church and reach ed nearly to Louisiana avenue. As the mo menta iiassed this throng increased. Mem bers of the church were admitted first, but everybody who came found a seat. As the public filed in ttie organ begun and after a few soft bars of the prelude had floated through the Church Rev. Dr. Tal mage entered, and passing down the aujth aisle w as -ushered Into the pastor's study. As the last murmur of the prelude faded away all the cleetrioIfghUi -were turned On and the chai.deliers and wall bulbs never he-emed to glow so brightly. feCENE TO REMEMBER. Thescctie was a picturesque one. A forest of potted plants rustled and swajed, a multitude of fans fluttered and hundreds programmes rattled in the hands of the congregation. Alter organist Gat-Iel F. Johnson had translated one of the music pnijers of Haydn, Dr. Talniageentered from thestudy and took a seat at the end of the second pew of the right section. Mr. Talmage w.is not much apparent In the proceedings of Installation except by reference, and the only time his Aoice was heard was when making response to the constitutional ques tions put by Rev. Adolos Allen, moderator of the presbjtery or Washington, and the brier and formal benediction which brought the senice or Installation to an end. Rev. Dr. Allen, as presiding officer, re view ed the history of the call of Dr. Tal mage, and his acceptance of it. The offi cers of installation were seated in the pul pit. Rev. David Gregg occupjing the cen ter. Rev. Dr. Easton on his left, and Rev. Dr. Bittinger on his right. Rev. Dr. Hamlin made the prajer of in vocation, closing with the Lord's Prajer, in which all presentjoined. Rev. Dr.Patch, pastor of Guutou Temple Memorial Church, announced himn No. 01G, "Elect from the nation. Ye One on all the earth, her char ter of salvation, one Lord, onefnlth, one birth." The concourse of people sang this almost as a unit, and with considerable im. Psalm CVH was read rcsponshcly by the ministers and people. After the con clusion of the last sentence, "Because of the house of the Lord, nur God, I will seek Thy good," the congregation sang "Gloria Patria." Rev. Dr. Hamlin rolloweil with the reading of a Scripture lesson and offered a devout prayer. In which he asked that Divine help would be given Dr. Talmage in his administering of the word of God and In his usefulness in lead Jng men to Christian dlscipleshlp. PRAYED FOR THE PASTORS. The prayer embraced Kev. Dr. Sunder land and Rev. Dr Allen. Ooui.od's "Re demption" was rendered magnificently by the ehoir, Mrs. W. L. Wilson, soprano, being the soloist. Rev. Dr. Gregg, pastor of Lafayette Avenue Presbyteriau Church. Brooklyn, then arose to delher the sermon of the evening. He Is an oratorical-looking clergyman, with a clean slucii face. long hair, and spoke cry rapidn from manu script, though lie did not confine himself to the written pages. The title of his l, ,"" address was "The Future Minister- snail He Be, and What Shall He BcT" He first dwell on the relations that should exist between pastor and people. There was no interest felt in the Chris tian mi Ulster like that fell by the Christian people. They were the arbiters of his ministership. The people filled the pulpit. Individual readers were responsible for the policy or their newspaper; individual voters in a Congressional district were re sponsible lor the character or their reprc sentatles, and the individual members of a congregation, were responsible for their minister. It wat good for the Christian pulpit to have let before It the Ideal consecrated Chrittian minister. They should insist that their niiniiters should be men who represented God. He gave a series of reaions lor his belief in the perpetuity of the religious ministry The church was not a human device. Detlre to worship was an element In human nature; It -was a part of the ttruclure of the soul. As men needed ikilled Instructors in oilier things. to they needed them in the church. AH men couldnotgice especial study to tho word of God There were heights which it required labor to climb. QUALIFICATIONS OF A MINISTER. He told what. In tilt opinion, the minister of the future should be. He should only become a minister at the call of God. He should not preach for the sake of money, the love of apjilauie, and the love of fame Dr. Gregg denounced what he called n certain irreverent iplrlt in sorno later day clergymen to ridicule the clergj rucn of the patt The ministers of the past had laid the foundation of our present greatness, and the minister of to-day who sought to undervalue the service to the world of the devout men of the past, was simply Injing the foundation for his own underestimation. He congratulated the Christians of Wash ington on having secured Dr. Talmage. Dr. Talmage was a preacher of the present and of the future. Dr. Gregg referred to Dr. SunderlanJ as a great man whose twilight eclipses some men's noon. The people of the First Church, had taken from Brooklyn its brightest slctlit, but they had ghen It a more central location. He re ferred at considerable length to the "onli ness" of Dr. .Talmage, and paid particular attention to the dlstinguisliiM divine's "rhetorical pause-." which, he said, flooded his sermons with flashes of golden silence. Hev. Dr Bltttnger announced Hymu 619 and then Dr. Allen put the formal constitu tional questions to which Dr. Talmage, from bis seat In the pew responded in a firm voice: "I am,""Iam,"'Ido and will." Tho nsual quertious were pat to the congregation and the membcrsrespondedfiffirmauvelyby raising their hands. CHARGE TO THE PASTOR. Ilev. Wallace RadcUffe, D.

He welcomed Dr. Tulmagetothcclty, which, despite its struggles and ambitions, was a church going and church loving com munity. He welcomed him heartily to this Presbytery nnd to the pulpit of the First Church, which boasted such a long line of consecrated men. Dr. Radcilife compared the unique trinity of pastors at the First Church to Moses, Aaron and Hur. He advised Dr. Talmage to teach his riock to slug and to pray, as well as to listen to the word of Ood. Rev. Dr. lilttlngcr delivered the charge to the people, admonishing them in their admiration for Dr. Talmage not to neglect tbelr ralthrul servant, Dr. Sunderland. Hi referred feelingly to the tender relations which had so long cclsteil between Ur. Sunderland and tbc people of the church. He took occasion to bring outat some length his Idea that the church is not a social organization devised by man, but a divine Institution. Rev. Dr. Thomas Chalmers Easton ren dered tbc closing praver and the choir and congregation sang "Onward Christian Sol diers." During the singing of this hymn Dr. Talmage had taken his position behind Ihe Bible rest and stood calmly surveying the congregation, with his right hand In the bre-ast of his buttoniil-np Prince Albert coat. Alter the song had ceased and after a slight pause. Dr. Talmage In a big, reso nant, vibrant voice pronounced the bene diction, as follows: "And now may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the love or God and com munion of the Holy Ghost be with us for evermore, amen." The organ pealed forth the "Installation March," composed bv Organist Johnson for the occasion, while the officers of the church and other members shook bands with their new co-pastor.

Will Oo Out to Ohio. New Y'ork, Oct. 23. One of the largest mass meetings ever held ill this city crowded Cooper Union to-night. The meeting was held under the auspices or the State Den. ocrattcvConuiiittce and the principal speak er of the evening was Senator David B. Hill. Long before the hour set Tor the oiivn Ing of the proceedings crowds liegan to gather about Cooper Union and within j, few minutes after the doors to the hall wero thrown open every seat was oc cupied, every aisle was Jammed, and hundreds bad to be turned away unable to gain aunUi-slon. The meeting was called to order by Clialrmau Hinkley, of the Democratic State Committee, who introduced tho chair nun of the evening, Frederick R. Coudert. Mr. Coudert made a short speech in which he said he favored partisanship but wished it to be understood that the Democratic party was In the majority and should rule. He then Introduced Senator Hill, who received an ovation lasting several min utes. When the cheering and band-elap-ping 'hail subsided sufficiently to allow his voice to be heard. Senator Hill began his address. Senator Hill In opening his address paid his respects to Senator Miller and the Re publican party. He traced Us history In its -various national platforms. He claimed that the party had been equally inconsistent In btate affairs. "It has declared In a general way for local self-government, and then Its legis lation lias centered power at Albany. I: lias been for home rule for cities and then against it usually against it. It has advocated non-partisan municipal ad ministration In Democratic citiesand main tained partisan ones In Republican cities." TARIFF DISCUSSED. In speaking of the tariff he said. "The la riff bill enacted in 1 894 by the Democratic party went into effect on August 2S, 1694. and thus has been In operatiouonly a little over one rear. That time-has not been ample to determine lis value and useful ness. It is to be regretted that it has not met Hie full expectations or Us friends In realizing sufficient revenues to prevent deficiencies, but this consolation exists, that even It thercunust be some deficiencies for a brief period, there-has been no unnec essary and extravagant, taxation Imposed under Its provisions. . "No new tariff Iawcan demonstrate its capacity within a sirgle year's trials and no sensible man should expect otherwise. Thedlfflculty is that the country has not yet recovered from the far reaching injurious effects or the terrible panic of IS93, caused by tbc Republican Sherman silver act of 1890, passed by Republicans over the votp of every Democrat in Congress. "This fact, however, cannot escape obser vation, and thatls, that the moment theMc Kinley law was repealed and the new tariff law enacted August 2S, 1894 the times began to improve, and have continued t improve ever since slowly it may be, but surely, safely and satisfactorily. "The national Democratic administration is giving to the country a well administered government. The various departments are being Iioncslly, economically and wisely conducted.
