HOPE CROWDS THE DAY.
THANKFULNESS IN FULL.
Xo Hint of Financial Worry in
Citjl's Celebration.
Th«Tf> T\a-< a. buoyant note of optimism in the
B ir yesterday. There may have been things to
complaint of on the day before. The pessimist
may ltd book one to listen to his plaint to-day,
but yesterday was Thanksgiving Day, when
every MM pauses to recount the blessings that
have come to him and to reflect how. after all,
these blessings more than make up for any tem
porary misfortune or sorrow.
The. spirit of the day pervaded the entire city,
from the homes of luxury on Fifth avenue and
PJverside Drive down through the Bowery,
here drift the wrecks of humanity, through all
the many public and private Institutions, and
wen in the prisons and police courts was to be
round a sense of gratitude and thankfulness for
the privileges and blessings that are and a de
termination to forget the things that might
lia\e been more satisfactory and satisfying.
. >f turkey and cranberry sauce, of pumpkin
ana mince pies, of ail the other gastronomlo de
lights that are associated -with that meal of
all meals known as the Thanksgiving dinner.
there was eurely no dearth yesterday. There
may have been a stringency in the money mar
ket, the drop In stocks and bonds may have re
duced the fortunes of many, there may have
been families where even so small a part of the
national currency as a dollar has not been seen
for months, but It -would have been hard last
night to find any one to acknowledge he had
not had a Thanksgiving dinner. It may have
been the sumptuous repast that only large
means may procure, or It may have been the
humble portion of turkey and cranberry sauce
that a Bowery restaurant gives for a dime, or
perhaps the rood cheer furnished to thousands
by philanthropic agencies; but whatever it was.
■wherever It came from. It was a Thanksgiving
dinner, for which he who ate It was properly
thankful.
LONELY FOR DULL CARE.
For one day Dull Care had to go and 6it by
himself. He could find no one willing to asso
ciate with him. Thanksgiving being essentially
a home day, the streets In the upper part of
the city had none of the usuh! holiday throngs.
Many homes offered hospitality to those unable
to get back to the family reunion in other parts
of this state or other states. For the stranger
fo unfortunate as not to have a dinner Invita
tion from friends many hotels offered the good
cheer of an old-fashioned Thanksgiving dinner.
Imwn In the Bowery and throughout th« East
Pld«i. where the streets offer a freedom not
founi in the cluttered tenement and lodging
hounen, the sidewalks teemed with the typical
men and women always to be found In that part
rf the city. But there was a difference. There
was an absence of that depressing air of misery
snd despair. The spirit of charity and helpful
n«F. radiatins; from scores of organizations and
hundreds of private Individuals, had reached
down into their heart*, end for them It was a
"hpttc-r day."
It was a warm — not such a one as the
weather man Is supposed to furnish for Thanks
giving Day, with a crisp, biting air that tells
of the coming' winter, But the weather man did
rot do so badly, as he managed to keep away
tli" rain announced in his official prognosttca
•Uor.p.
Th«» "ragamuffins" and "horrible?," which
for many years have personified the form In
which the exuberant spirits of young America
find an outlet on Thanksgiving Day were to
be seen throughout the city — procession, in
croups or in the single quaint diminutive figure
which bounces up beside you with the request
for a ''penny, mister" on his lips. But this form
of amusement does not seem to be bo popular
as a few years ago. except In the poorer sec
tion* of the city.
THE DAY IN THE CHURCHES.
The day began with tho usual cervices of
Vria-k. 1 - giving in the churches. The, number
T? ministers taking occasion to speak of the
administrations of President Iloosevelt and
governor Hughes in the highest terms was
narked.
Tn St. Patrick's Cathedral a memorial mass
was celebrated for tho dead members of the
«"'itho!lc Benevolent Legion. Monslgnor Lavelle
told his audience that the recent financial flurry
haii iijLSßed away and that the country would
continue to prosper.
Bt Ambrose's Roman Catholic Church. Tenth
«vtnae and Mth Btreet. was crowded when
.•Uwr John P. Cliadwlck celebrated a solemn
requiem mass for the members of the police
force who have died In the past year, elrhty-two
lri number.
The dedication of the new building was a
feature of the service at St. Monica's Roman
Catholic Church, in 7»th street, near First ave
r.v*. The ceremonies were conducted by Arch
bishop Farley. This was followed by the con
serration of three altars, one of which cost
*40,<Mj<>, and the celebration of high mass.
In the crypt of the Cathedral of St. John the
Wvirie there was a communion service at S
« rr. , uiiciei the auspices of the Brotherhood of
St. Andrews.
For the first time in several years there were
Bo religious services In the Tombs. The Rev.
John Wade, the chaplain, went down the cor

rldors dropping personal words of good cheer
to each prisoner. The men got. cigars and the
women boxes of candy. Later in the day all
got a turkey dinner, with "fixings." Harry
Thaw, who was spending his second Thanks
giving Day In the Tombs, received a special
luncheon, and later an elaborate dinner from
his wife.
PRISONERS MADE HAPPY.
But the prisoners In the Tombs had no ad
vantage over those In the several district
prisons, as Peter A. Mallon, the newly ap
pointed warden, visited each one to s«»e that not
a prisoner went without turkey, fruit, cigars
and candy.
Mips Hel^n K. Flack, locked up In the Jfffer
pon Market, j-rison on a grand larceny charge,
had been oxpectinn; a visit from her mother.
When sh* learned that no visitors would be al
lowed Mie *aid: "Well, whafs the. uf=e of being
downhearted? F.very cioud has a silver lining
and this Is Thanksgiving Day." Then phe.
started a cheerful song that brought lightness
to the hearts of her fellow prisoners. A husky
negro in the West Bide prison, between bites of
turkey and mince pie, declared he •would make
a point of coming back nt the came time next
year.

of laughter -with his funny stories. It may be
an Incentive to crime, hut it must b« chronicled
that each of the prisoners in th« Essex Market
prison had half a chicken In addition to all the
"fixings" and cigars and candy.
Thousands of turkeys and tons of other norts
of food were consumed by the inmates of the
Manhattan State Hospital, on "WanTs Island;
In the House of Refuge, on Randall's Island,
and at the various Institutions in the city
under the control of the state and municipality.
In tho almshouse twenty-six hundred men and
women were made to think of the better days
when they had money and friends. One old
man's mind ran back to his youth. "Thta makes
me think of the days when I was a kid on the
farm." he paid, "when father and I had finished
the chores and sat down to one of mother's
good Thanksgiving dinners."
FEEDING* CITY'S POOR.
At th« City Lodging House 900 men were fed.
The Five Points House of Industry had 300
children at Its tables, and distributed dinners to
over one thousand men from tho Bowery lodging
houses Eight hundred children and SCO women
■<vf. r « fed at the Five Points Mission. To-day
baskets of food will be Bent to T>oo families. Al
though the Salvation Army and the Volunteers
of America mako Christmas the preat nay for
distribution of dinners, they gave sandwiches
Rnd coffee at their various rooms yesterday, po
that no man need go hungry. The Bowery
branch of the Young Men'R Christian Associa
tion nerved a fine turkey dinner for live cents,
requiring that modest amount po that the diners
might not think themselves the objects of charity,
although the full course dinner would have cost
$1 at the average restaurant.
W. Ernlen Roosevelt furnished a dinner for
n no hundred boys In the West Bide Lodging
House of the Children's Aid Bbciety. For the

After Praising President Pastor
Names Hughes as His Successor.
At the Calvary Bantist Church yesterday morn
ing Dr. MacArthufx preached on "The National
Unrest Among the Nations," and closed with ■ eu
logy, of President Roosevelt and the naming of
Governor Hughes for President of the United
States.
Dr. Mac Arthur touched on the recent history of
many nations and declared that never before was
unrest among nations so great. Out of the defeat
of Russia, Dr. Mac Arthur declared, would come a
greater Russia; Franca would soon have civil and
religious liberty, and r.s fur Spain. "th<s greatest
blessing that evr came to Spain was to be licked
by us. "We did our work well, and she has felt
tim blessing of that defeat."
After saying that America led tun world In the
diffusion of democracy and civil and religious lib
erty, ho continued: "Men criticise the President.
I stand hero to make a serious charge against the
President. They say that lie has destroyed confi
dence. ll* has, without doubt. He has destroyed ;
the confidence of all Intelligent American citizens
In film-flam finance. He has destroyed the confi
dence of tlio citizen In rotten banks. In dishonest
corporations. In Illegal trusts. in bunco gamesters
who are dealing with individual wealth and na
tional honor. I make these charges against him
without fear of contradiction, Other Presidents
have been criticised. Where are the detractors of
"Washington and of Lincoln to-day?
"After a few more bankers are in their graves by
suicidal hands, after a few more trust and other
magnates are in prison, Theodore Roosevelt will
emerge from the clouds with his bead haloed with
national honor and International glory.
"Here now I put In nomination a man who will,
tf elected President, write his name In imperish
nble characters with the trio of our great Presi
dents. Then that trio will be a quartet, and the
names will read: George Washington, Abraham
Lincoln. Theodore Roosevelt and Charles Evans
Hughes."
For an instant the audience was quiet and then
broke into a round of applause.
PA IiKIIUKSTS PABA LLEL.
Between President and Governor,
Who Were Subjects of Sermon.
In his Thanksgiving sermon yesterday Dr. Charles
H. Parkhurst, pastor of the Madison Square Pres
byterian Church, advanced Governor Hughes as the
man who emphasized the sort of spirit which would
"save us from drifting In the direction of gov
ernment monarchlcally administered." This idea
was presented after a somewhat extended compari
son of the Governor and the President. The Presi
dent was h< t down an the man whose "irresist
ible sovereignty of personality" had enabled him
"to achieve what will probably be the crowning act
of his theatrical life, the mediation that brought
to a conclusion the Kusso-Japanese war"; Hughes,
the man who had "perfectly accommodated himself
to the genius of American institutions, who filled
more completely and devotedly just the position
constitutionally created for the executive to till."
Dr. Parkhurst named the President and the Gov
ernor when he came to mention tho things for
which he thought the state and the nation should
be most thankful. After speaking of President
Roosevelt as a "man of that character standing as
the representative head of a great nation in an
enginery of personal uplift beyond the power of
language to express or even of thought to com
pute," lie continued:
Tne Instances have been exceedingly rare In
political history where a man untrained In po
litical experience has forged to the front with
the expedition of Mr. Hughes.
It was left to the people to nominate him,
loft to th» people to elect him, left to the peo
ple to stand by him— a loyalty which the Gov
ernor lias magnificently reciprocated. And while
there Is not that passionate affection for Mr.
Hughes" that sometimes subsists between a. p«-o
ple nn-I !m rulers. there la that intense ootifi
dence felt in ih ■ man, not simply In his integrity,
which i* H^ perfect probably as in the instance
of Mr Roosevelt, hoi also In those supplementary
qualities needed 10 accompany Integrity In or
der that ltd possessor may be qualified to till
positions of large and delicate public trust
He considers a public official to be not a ruler of
the people, but a servant of th« people, and there
fore, to use his own words, strictly accountable to
ii. • people for every departure from the democratic
Ideal of office. Tie existence of that sort of spirit
is what i- £<>Im" to save us from drifting in the
direction <>? government monarchlcally admin
istered, a tetideii'-y that is always so quick to as
sort Itself in any republic, and a tendency, too.
that even at present la exciting among us an
amount of silent misjjlvlng.
Ii i- the very acme of Spartan self-mastery fur
ii Governor of the State of New York to do noth
ing hut mind his own business at a time when
millions of American voters are enthusiastically
conHlilei tug him as a Presidential possibility.
There la nothing In his case is there, to remind
us of that chronic candidate who now for nearly a
decade has kept himself ostentatiously dancHntr
before an Indeterminate public? There is nothing
In his caw*, either, that would warrant even a .Ins
tics of the Supreme Court In charging him with
playing "hide and seek": hide. yes. hut not seek.
