GRAND EXALTED RULER HAY'S ADDRESS. Tho Objects or tho Order Of r.lh? Pic? tured iu Rcitutll'iil long??*??Th? I'nrtlcipniitH In the Kxerclses?A Scuutllul Custom lu Kcineinbrnnco of tho Iload. The Elks' memorial services, which are annually observe- on the first Sun? day In December. Is an event which brings to the Academy of Music a vast concourse of people, and the observance on Sunday last was no exception to the rule. The cerdmonles (were an? nounced to begin at 3 p. m.. hut lohg before that hour the beautiful Acad? emy of Must" was (Hied from pit to dome, manv hundreds of people being compelled to stand during the entire ceremony, and It Is not too much to say that the 3,000 or more persons present were never more highly entertained. Exalted ltuler of Norfolk Dodge, 12. R. Jovnes. presided, and to his credit be It said he acquitted himself lu a manner which was a pleasure to his friends. The music of the occasion was fur? nished by a select orchestra of well trained musicians under the skillful direction of Prof. A. F. Koerner, and the opening pruyer was by Roy. A. S. Lloyd, of St. Luke's Church. Dr. Lloyd Is not Uli Elk, but so closely is he en? deared to the members of Norfolk Lodge that it would be painful to-them to miss Ills presence at their services. Following the prayer the regular order of exercises was lukeu up and observ? ed as published In the programme Saturday morning, with a slight ex? ception. The ceremonies were closed with tin? singing of the doxolony, after which Rev. Dr. M. n. W barton, of Freemason Street Baptist Church, of? fered prayer. The following were the soloists: Miss M. K. Dwell, Mrs. J. P. Kevlll, Miss B. L. "Williams, Miss L. M. Edmunds, Mr. W. D. Crowell. The memorial address, delivered by the Hon. Edwin B. Hay, of Washing? ton, the Grand Exalted Ruler of the Elks, was a masterly effort. Mr. Hay consumed over an hour in its delivery, and yet the thousands who heard him were so entertained that they seemed willing to sit for ever under the elo? quence of his words. Mr. Hay spoke as follows: > Exalted ltuler. Brother Elks, Ladies and Gentlemen: A single touch of nature makes the world akin. Nothing can bring us closer together than the realization of 'death. To-day the Benevolent and Pro? tective Order of Elks Is in perfect harr IliOny. Where the chill of Northern air Is upon Ice bound New England, Bos? ton holds Its session, and where the Dolden Date opens its portals lo the Paclllc, from where the laughing wa? ters of the Northwest make rippling music, to where the Southern flowers bloom, In all places where Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love, and Fidelity, are the watchwords, tributes are of? fered to our departed brothers. The custom of expressing sentiment for tlie dead Is an Index of civilization extending from , the rude, symbolic ceremonies and inscription of the sav? age to the eloquent eulogies that em? balm the memories of the dead in tlie literature and songs of cultured people, words live when monuments crumble, flood deeds survive both. One by one as the years go by our companions are Joining the caravan travelling through the shadowy valley, leaving lo us the memory of our friendly Intercourse and communion With them; the fruits of their labors and saurillces and the les? sons of their excellent example. To us, saddened by their death, belongs the duty of commemorating their virtues, emulating their example, und proving ourselves worthy to have had their friendship and esteem. There Is nothing In the ,name of Hie organization that conveys any idea of its purposes. Organized for social intercourse, it has become one of the most benevolent institutions In this country, and its practices of Charity? effective and unostentatious?make sunshine In darkened places, gladden hearts that are sad, dries the tears of sorrow, paints tlie silver lining on the clouds of adversity, and throws the cloak of forgetfulness around the form of poverty. The Supreme Being comes first in the degree of reverence, and the good, the true, and the beautiful is a part of the worship. The Dolden Rule is Its precept, and the memory of the departed has cherished consid? eration. Charity Is its lirst principle. Charity, poetlenlly. Is the daughter of Heaven, and the mother of humani? ty, it is love's conception, it Is love Itselt from which Cod. like creation, springs every divine and humane blessing. In the beginning It was, and has ever been since. The morning stars at the first dawn balled it and the harmonies of the uni? verse when It swung Into existence de? lighted it with Its music, for Dod was there, Clod is love, and love 1? the ful? filling of the law. Tlie law of divinity, the law of humanity, the law of crea? tion, the law of existence. Love and charity are synonomous. and are of such sublime Import that the Inspired Book is n treasure house of gems of thought devoted to their laudation. There Is no poetry so beautiful, no prose so ex? pressive as Paul's dissertation upon the subject in which are the lines of the text upon which to build n structure of figurative meditation and wholesome instruction, "and nbideth Faith. Hope and Charity, these throe, but the great? est of these is Charity." It shall not be the province of tlie hour to contract Diem, nor to prove by exhaustive argument the correctness of the assertion that "Charity is the greatest." The proposition is accepted as an axiom and needs no proving. Faith Inspires Hone. Without Faith Is there Hope? Faith is the bond of union between God and man. now and eter? nity. It Is the means: Charltv the end. The end is greater than the means, therefore the greatest of these Is Char? ity. While Love Is synonomous with Char? ity, It Is more comprehensive; Charity Is a part; Love Is the whole; the whole Is greater thnn the part. In life, In death In Heaven, on earth, It Is the supreme endowment, and Charity, In one sense is but a component inspiration, a riu :nane and philanthropic faction. Occu? pying, as it does, one of the foundation principles of the benevolent organiza? tions under which this memorial is be? ing held. It can be more satisfactorily considered briefly from three different, standpoints?Charity as Benevolent, Charity rb Sympathy, Chrtrlty as Love. The parable of the Samaritan teaches the first. It Is an answer to the lawyer asking. "Who la my Neighbor?" Sick, wounded, robbed and ncglect"d upon the road side one had f?llen, unheeded by those who pass, unions; them even the priest and levlte. The Samaritan paused, uaw, stopped, cared for the wounded, ministered unto his distressed condition, clothed him, fed htm and suc? cored him. Which, then, was his nelgh bor? He thut showed mercy. Then Jesus raid. "Go. thou, and do Likewise." It Is In following that precept, that ad? monition, thut cominuud, that this order is founded, and not only in almsgiving does it limI Its way "to do likewise," but In' the relief of distress in every form that comes to hand. Under the cloud of adversity, in sick? ness, in poverty, in calamity, in the closing hours of life, it comes like a ministering angle from heaven and meters out the relief giving balm that Is like mercy twice blessed, blessing him that renders und him that receives. By such acts do we all become brothers In the great brotherhood of love, and,, it will be so until mercy and affection' cense to meet In common throughfar* of life. Sunshine dcvclopes shadow, as the rose Is not without Its thorns; *o poverty and suffering and the unequal conditions of life give rise and use to more than half of all the human A-lr tues, there be no penury, tio pain, what would become of fortitude, patience and resignation; If there were no greatness, no affuence, no wealth, what would become of charity as benevolence and the means of obeying the commuiu "to go und do likewise.*' WhoA would become of human pltty. of temperance, of brotherly love and Justice? if there were no inequality of condition, no aill blttun, nothing to hope for, nothing to fear, no enlivening of the energies of the soul, what a link between the heart of man and God would be snapped asunder. Hut It Is ordained otherwise nnd It I3 In the consideration of charity us sym? pathy, thut God has united the fuinlly of man unto one great household. Sym? pathy separates man from the brute creation. Under the ennobling influences, Joy nnd sorrow arc not in the individual self alone, but for all around hliri. The life of one person becomes the rcllex of olicrs, and the soul migrates so that the happiness of others becomes his happiness, and a compensatory pleas? ure Is vouchsafed by his feeling for others's pains and. sorrows. Sympathy Is s beneficence at the command of us ail?the pauper and the king alike. Sympathy In brotherhood Itself, con? stantly on our Hps Is the golden rule. Why do wo fall In Its practice? Be? cause sympathy enters Into our acts but slightly, and it 1.4 a divine com? mand and naturul Instinct. Wc do not fully follow the rule by which nil the problems of humanity can be solved. What depths of feeling, what extent or regard, what appeals to the mind, to the heart should be proffered; what offers of love, of affectionate considera? tion, of advice should be tendered. The practical exemplification and the leal solution Is to put yourself In the other's place. If you are strong and he Is weak descend from your strength and become u part of his weakness. Sec With his eyes, become a part of his being, so that your heart shall beat In unison with his. Then, you could renlize the lull sympathetic chord that would govern your every act toward your brother and conversely his towards you. Have not kind words, and lender thoughts often lightened your hearts? Is there one In misery bowed to whom you may go, my brother, with kind word that may bring light to his cloud? ed mind and cheer to his herat? Is there an erring one, my sister, to whom your gentle voice may bring soothing and repentence? Would not the smile of the one you served and the memory of the pressure of the hand In recogni? tion of such an act be with you Into heaven? So slight Is the span between the two that charity, an sympathy, almost blends Into CHARITY AND LOVE. While In the divine reference to the subject Charity, is the word expressed,, yet it is accepted as Love, and It. beyond doubt. Is the proper construction of the memorable words of Paul. It is not the want of benevolence. It Is not the want of sympathy, that makes us as sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal, but the want of Charity Love. The gift of prophecy may be ours, the mysteries known to us: we may possess all knowledge, all faith and strength to remove mountains, but we are nothing without Charity ? Love. It Is said .further, which is con? clusive ns to the interpretation of Char? ity (Love), as contra intended to alms? giving and benevolence. "Though he bestow nil his goods to feed the poor nnd hath not Charily (Love) he Is noth? ing," so it Is this philosophy that shows us that Love is Supreme, Love Is Last? ing. Love Is Eternal. Be strengthened by Its Influence, In? stil it Into character, make it the guide of life. It Is the Inspired "of benevolence and sympathy, the test of religion, the foundation of every Christian virtue, and the Heaven be kindled light in life Itself. It brings us to pay tribute to-day to those who have gone to the long home, and actuates us to engage In tb(s me? morial service to the dead. We come noi with tears, but with music, flowers and love-ladened words, which left our whole being' upward, upward to the spirit world to mingle with those gone before and lost awhile. It Is a sacred moment. There Is not one among us hut who Is better for such an opportunity. We are drawn away from the world, where the cares and duties toward the living are constantly before us. The drudgery of every-day life, dreams of ambition and visionary nsperations may harden and warp our natures, but In the tenderness of our thoughts of the loved ones gone, in the kindness of our expressions r>f those de? parted, in the sincerity with which we bring our humblest tributes of respect, wc become softened In our whole being and at pence with the whole world. Few there arc in this gathering who have not felt the pangs of grief, from whom death has not taken some wife, father, mother, sister, brother, friend, or from the parents embrace some infant child. Make this a memorial to your own dead friend: If they ever could return again surely there lr.'no time when it Is possible to come nearer than at this solemn moment, when hearts are Im? pressionable and our thoughts make their presence so susceptible. Are they whose memories are cherish? ed ns so many wind-tossed leaves hurl? ed out of sight? If so thin service were a mockery. There would be little gratification In calling back that which would resolve Itself ngnln Into oblivion. Every' recollection would but add a pang; but the unfaltering trust leads tContlnued on Third Page.) IN COURT YESTERDAY Another Raid Made and the Principal Sent on to the Corporation Court.

Considering that yesterday was Mon? day and that Justice Burroughs had two d/uckets to dispose of (both Sunday's and Monday's), he had the smallest ."number of cases for some months past. Only two of the cases were important. ANOTHER RAID. There was another raid on last Sun? day morning, made by Sergeant Taylor and Detectives Curtis and Williams. This time the charge was for selling liquor without a Icleuse and the prin? cipal victim was Dr. Thomas Mordn, the alleged President of the Stonewall Fourth Ward Democratic Club. The place raided wus the upstairs of No. ::89 Church street, where - the club's rooms are set id to lie located. An additional charge of keeping a dis? orderly houiie and selling liquor on Sun? day was also entered against tlie otticers of tlie club, and charges of nuisances were preferred against the others who were found In the place at the time It was raided and who were also arrested. The various accounts given, by those arrested, as to why they happened to be In the club-room at the time of the1 raid and t heir tales -of the manner in which they obtained drinks, etc., on Sunday was very amusing. Consider? able gambling paraphernalia and liquors were captured and Is still held as evidence against Dr. Moran. Af? ter hearing the evidence Justice Bur? roughs dismissed all the warrants against tlie patrons of the place, but sent the cose of Dr. Moran on to the grand Jury under bond of $.50, his attor? ney, Mr. James P. Duncan, becoming his bondsman. BACK TO HIS CELL AfiAIN. The ferlincs of John Thomas, the col? ored ex-convict who was released on Saturday last from the charge of em bozv.lelng $81 from the restaurant of King, Moseley & Co.. on Commercial Place, nnd who was later re-arrested on the same charge, were very different yesterday after Justice Burroughs was through hearing his ense. After the man's re-arrest on Saturday Mr. Julius T. Saunders was employed by Rev. David King to prosecute Thomas and yesterday he succeeded In producing sufliccut evidence before the Justice to Justify him In sending Thomas on to tlie grand Jury. Mr. D. Lawrence Groner and Attorney M.v T. Hayes represented the prisoner on Saturday and yesterday. A tilt oc? curred between counsel during the trial, growing out of Die question put to the prisoner by Mr. Bounders, "Where were you working In 1803?" (The prisoner wus In the Richmond penitentiary dur? ing that year.) Mr. Groner objected to the question as tending to Incriminate the accused. His Honor admitted tlie question, however. Thomas was un? able to give ball for his appenrauce and was recommitted to his cell. MINOR OFFEN.CF.S. C. Walker, white, nuisance; taken un? der advisement.
