COXFEK AS TO EXDEAVOHS.
Tonne Christian-. Who Are Introduc
ing Mirny Xew Methods.
A new era In Christian work in many
churches Is being ushered In by the Chris
tian Endeavor societies. This was shown
by the conference!, ot committees last
night. .
There -were uine conferences -in session
w'ith a total attendance of -176. The En
deaorcrs are business-like and give exact
figures. ,
At the rraycr-mectlng conference, led by
Miss Anna J. Bell, there -were 90; Look
out, Miss Lizzie M. Warnian, 70; Music,
Mr. Charles S. Clark, 30; Missionary, Miss
Florence Shuffle, 70; Good Citizenship.
Mr. W. II. rennel, 20; Social, Mr. George
R. Llukins, C5; Sunday School, Mr. Irwin
11. Linton, 40; Good Literature, Mr. W.N.
Weston, 1G; unu Calling, itenciano. r lower,
in.. l.t.,.i T? TTnlilor. rift.
The first three were held at Calvary1
Baptist Sunday School House; tne next
two at Mt. Vernon IMace Methodist, and
one each in order at St. Taul's Lutheran,
E Street Baptist, First Congregational,
and Fourth Presbyterian.
These conferences arc a renewal ot efforts
to arouse the whole membership to activity'
which -were first tried last year and prayed
very successful- They gave new ideas and
Infused new life Into committee -work. In
the first conference there were short papers
and talks; in the second, topics for open
discussion; last night It was question and
answer.
From five to a dozen questions were pre
pared for caih of the nine committees and
published in a four page circular letter
sent out by President M. M. Shand and Sec
retary Hernion C. Metcalt two weeks ago.
In addition ever member was encouraged
to ask any question that pressed Itself
upon his attention. New Ideas were at a
premium. The leader was not expected to
monopolize the time by any means.
One way suggested out of the dilemma
was lo have two leaders, one good to off
set the. poor. Another way was to let
I lie whole committee lead, along with the
leader needing help. A third plan was lo
have everybody instructed before band to
take hold promptly and with spirit.
In this latter way. It was stated, it fre
quently happened that an unusually help
ful meeting resulted.
In the lookout committee, the problem
of keeping records was-dlscussed. It
Is part of the Endeavor plans to keep track
of what each member Is actually doing.
For this purpose a record Is made of at
tendance at church, Sunday-school and
prayer meeting. The lookout, committee
at any time is able to furnish data, upon a
member's movements.
The Good Literature Conference con
sidered the distribution of papers and maga
zines to hospitals, reformatories, and
prisons. Also' the qaestlon'how- the com
mittee can co-operate with oUler commit
tees, was talked over. I

HOSBY SUGGESTED WALKER
Thinks the Virginian a Good Man

CoL John S. Mosby, looking but little
older than when he was a conspicuous
figure around Washington, arrived here
jeslerdayfrom San Francisco. He lias come
here to attend to some law business, and
will probably remain in the clly a week or
or two. Discussing ibD political outlook.
CoL Mosby said:
"I am or the opinion that the Republican
nominee will lie either MtKtulcy or Mor

sliou Id say the chances were In his favor, but,
under existing conditions, I think MiKIn-lej-
is foremost in the race.
"The next campaign will show some re
markable changes in the political senti

Republicans had the courage to nominate
for the second place upon the ticket an ex
Confederate they would inakesoinc Inroads

"I .should like to see Gen. James A. Walk

the Republicans would tarry Virginia and
several other Southern Slates."
"What effect ii)n I lie politics of the
South do you think the death of Gen.
Mahone will have?"
"It will prove a heavy blow to the
Democrat!) of Virginia," replied Col. Mos

oT division in their ranks It was orly
necessary to raise the crj- that MhIiouc, as
the Republican b ss, was striving to ;rain

"Mahone's natural successor as the

Gen. James A. Walker. He is a ntrong

"A good many people." said the tolonel,
"think the North would refuse (o vote

Is all a mistake. The people of the North

"the agitation has done this much ci.od

Dr. Elliott, the resident physician at the

His testimony related entirely to the child's
Injuries and the time and cause of death.
The shock from the Injuries was so great
that she never recovered complete con
sciousness and tiled exactly twenty-rour
hours after being taken to the hospital.
A number or people who were eye-witnesses
to the accident were then examined
and their testimony was all corroborative
and went toshow that, the inolormaiioiithe

was unavoidable.
After delibi rating about hair an hour

DISTRICT HOME HCLE.
Candidate for the National Repub

There was but a small attendance at the
mass meeting held hist ccnlng In Israel
Baptist Church on Eleventh street, between
E mid F streets northeast.
The meeting was called for the purpose
of ghhig the olers of the old Nineteenth
assembly district an opportunity to hear
the candidates for the national nominating
convention express themselves on the ques
tion ot "homo rule" in the District.
R. P. Ruffln, president of the Nimtcenlh
precinct club, made an effort to organize
the meeting, but objection was raised,
on the grouud that his term or orricc-had
expired. After a great deal or excited ar
gument Mr. Rutfiu withdrew his claim
and Harry Edwards was elected chairman
and Andrew Belk, secretary.
The only candidates present were Dr.
C. H. Purvis and Daniel Murraj-. Mr.
Charles Ortlinp, however, was present by
proxy, Mr. Richard Laws being author
ized to speak for him.
The candidates all favored "home rule"
ror the District and pledged tluniselves to
do all In their power to secure it, ir sent
to the convention. Dr. Turvis, after
having denned his position on home rule,
roierred to the matter or establishing a
whipping post and thelynebing or negroes
in the South. Lynching in the South, he
said, was more or a custom than anything
else and thai section of the country would
haie to be revolutionized socially, morallj',
religiously and politically before any change
for the better could be expected.

FLAYS OP NEXT WEEK.
That sprightly bit ot burlesque by
Sidney Roefe-ld nnd Ludwig Euglaiider.
enllllill "Tin. "nih Cnliirv Ctrl " will
be at the Grand Opera House next week.
It may be properlj- called one of the
lyrical novelties of the time, since it deals
with current events and things and is
charged with contemporaneous Innnor.
The-se authors ot "The Passing Show" have
sclzesl upon one of the broadest and most
IH'rtinent topics of the day, and have un
questionably struck a mine of llgitimate
fun.
Everybody has seen, heard much aliout,
couversisl with, and known some-thing of
the so called "new womau." Her fads
and foibles are the foundation of witti
cisms of pre'ss and periodical. Her bloomers,
her "hike," hercigarctle, her manlsh ways,
am! affectations have come under tt-e
public eyes dally in some form. The "girl
bachelor" is known to all. Sl.e affects
the masculine and flouts the softer of her
sex. But when it comes right down to the
pinch, she has the same lender feminine
heart as all the rest. That Is thestory of
the play, only It is clothed in simrklii.g
dialogue and tuneful music, and inter
twined with fast and furious fun.
.The company is under Hie management
of Mr. Fre-derlck Hallen, and is a Etrong
combination. It embraces three stars not
couiitin? Miss Catherine Llnyarel, the
prinia donna. Miss Molly Fuller appears
in the title roll-. John T. Kelly and Gus
Williams hae liolh stnrrnl singly, and
together forma gre-at team. Then ther are
the sisti-r Hawthorne. Mr. William Cam
eron. GeorgieHawley, Harry Kelly, Thomas
Lewis, Emma Levey, and a chorus of
fort j- lioople.
"On the Mississippi" will lie the bill
at the Academy of Music next wcyk. The
play de-als with the reckless and some
what lawless life III the South Immed
ately after the war. Mr. William Ha
worth, the author, makes vivid use of
the stirring days of the Mississippi Rier,
and has woven Into a romantic tale the
incidents of packetboat life, the gambling
hells of new Orh-aus, the historical opera
tions of the Ku KIux Klan, and the
rugged simplicity of the mountaineers of
East Te-nnev.e-e.
Thcc-omedy features a re from real South
ern types, replete with native humor, and
the shirting action of the piece affords a
broad field for the si-cuie artist. The play
hlnge-s upon the deviltry of a Southern ad
enturcss nnd the misfortunes lit a rich
Northern gentleman of susee-ptible nature
who falls into , her clutches. It runs
through the gamut of the steamboat game,
through the gorgeous gambling hells of
New Orleans, tli rough impenetrable swamps
ot Louisiana, Hie resort of fugitives from
Justice, and through the mountains of East
Teunessec.
Five ae-ts and nine complete and differ
ent se-cnes to fit the lively action of the
piece afford an opportunity for the artist
that is seldom offered by a melodramatic
production. The opportunity Is realized
by magnificent stage settings. There is also
the picturesque Mardi Gras, made attract
ive by expensive e-ostumes anel handsome
stage furnishings. The e-ast is strengthened
sine-e last year, and it requires over Tifry
IieOple to present the characters in "On
the Mississippi."
Mr. Charles Hoyt Is easily the foremost
author and producer of farce comedies of
the present day. Ills successful plays now
before the public are so numerous that there
is se-arcely a theater goer who has not
laughed himself hoarse many times over
at his most humorous productions.
Hoyt's name stands as a guarantee of all
that is foremost and first class in farce
e-omeely.
"A Black Sheep," one of his most suc
cessful plays, and one which packed the
New National Theater for an entire week
last season, will be the attraction for the
coming week at this popular theater. It
comes stronger and belter than ever, with
new characters and specialties.
The company Is headed by that original
comedian Otis Harlan, and numbers on Its
roster such well-known names as Ada
Dare, Big Bill Deere. Joseph Natus, etc.
"Sins or the Night" at the Bijou next
week, the latest melodrama from tbc pen
of Frank Harvey, author of "The Wages
of Sin," is one of his strongest plays.
A brief summary of the play follows:
S'lulrc Thorne. an English gentleman,
disinherits his son Harold, on account of
his marriage to Rosa Marthant, a circus
rider. Harold leaves his father's house
and goes to Mexico, where he lieconics su
perintendent in a silver mine at Isla del
Carmen. While there his father dies, and
the estate is left to Harold's cousin,
Leslie, on condition that he marries Cj nth la
Mayne. The marriage Is distasteful to
botli Cynthia anel Leslie.
Cynthia is In love witii Harold anil plots
tooverthrowRosa. Leslie Is In a quandary.
He has given his notes for large amounts
ot money to a Spaniard, Ramez D'Alvara
by name, but according to a clause in the
will he does not come into possession of
the money until one year after the squire's
death, and then only on condition (hat
Harold does not return in that tirlie. Leslie
hears that Harold Is alive and liable to
return at any1 moment. He tells Ramez.
who, to save his money, favors getting
rid of Harold should he ever return.
Leslie, Uiough weak, is not bad at heart,
and refuses to listen. Raniex takes the
responsibility on his own shoulders, and
when Harold does not return within the
twelve months, he plots his death. He
lures Harold and Rosa to an underground
cellar on tho banks of the Thames and
makes them prisoners.
Climax after climax, holding the audi
ence until the lovers are united at the finale
of Hie last act. The company carries all
special scenery for the five acts, painted
by Reg. Morgan. Prominent Is a mine in
Mexico, with all the working mechanical
effects.

PjIils nor expense.
As for miiusciiicut, the comedians make
the sternest fe-aliire-s relax. Portrajais or
naUve character, with Its eccentricities
and conceits, open the way for bright
comedy, ami the comedians arq (pilck to
grasp the situation.
Old Southern melodies, though they may
not meet all tin- reiiuiri'iiienis of the class
ical musical e-ar, strike the iwpular fancy,
and In these the- artists of the company arc
IK-rfectly at home.

This is indeed the electrical age. Now
It furnishes the foundation of .1 play.
Daulc-Li Hart's drama, "lioveroment Ac
ceptance," which Stuart Rolison presents
at the Lafayette Square Opera House Mon
day cve-ning, liasiuuch to do with electricity.
Theleadlnge ha racter.Ro lie rt(i union, which
is nK-umed by Jlr. Kobson, Is tliut of an
ini cntor, a young society man who. Hi rough
force of circumstances. Is obliged to ele
pend uiHin his own exertions for in e-xist-encc.
He studied electricity as a hobby;
he uses his knowledge us a necessity, and
secures employment as an electrician in the
Navy Yard at Washington. He 's a so
ciety man, nevertheless, for the fash i-iiu tile
world looks I11I.1II him as one working for
pleasure, not bread, and serious and i-ornedy
scenes result.
Act I re-presents a fashionable recep
tion In all its i-plc-ndor, where the lnugnifi
cent gowns worn by the ladies will bo a
delight to many a feminine eje. In the
midst or this gay scene the )ouug imentor
Torgits his surroundings so thoroughly is
liein love with hlsprore-sslon that iieinouiits
a ladder in the midst Of a dance to njuir
a lamp which Was broken.
"Gowrnmeiit Acceptance" bubbles with
comedy, relic-M-d here and there by pure
sentiment and pathos. As Hie young in
ventor, Mr. Robson has a character thor
oughly in keeping with his genius, ar
fonllng him opjiortuniiles for good ivoik
"wholly In uuinoii with his genial nature.
The churaetcrsarcall In capable hands, end
Ioera of the pure anel the legitimate in
drama will find this one or the most t njoya
blc entertainments or the season.
There is not a better known man In Amer
ica than Hill Nye. Everyone who reads the
newspapers has become thoroughly ac
qualnteil with Hill owing to the humorous
articles he writes describing his adventures.
The pictures in the liaiwrs portray Nye
(that Is really his name) as a knrck-kneed,
bald-headed, spectaelc-we-aring specimen or
humanity, but Hill Nye, or Mr. Edgar Will
iam Nye, is an able Journalist, who, by his
keen wit and humor, has risen to the top
or his precession.
His drollery Is essentially his own. He
has f reateda school orids own, in whlchhe
differs materially from the other great
American humonsts. Everyone who has
read his runny sketches enjoys them.
On Saturday evening, October 2G, in con
junction with another brilliant genius.
Hert Toole, whose rorte Is the making of
exceedingly laughable cartoons in a light
ning like manner, he will illumine Met
zerott Hall with his brilliant wit. Reserved
se-ats will be on sale Monday morning at
Mctzerotfs Music Store.
Mr. Nate Salsbury's latent and greatest
creation, "Make America," will be the at
traction at the Convention Hall all next
week. Frobuhly there was never a sLow
organized that has received the Indorse
ment or the pulpit as has "Mack America."
Jlr. Salibury has In his iwssessloa hundreels
or letters from the most pronnne-iit clergy
men in New York coinmeneiing the enter
tainment In the highest terms.
When the clergy take hold or a public
entertainment it Is certain to arouse an
interest among all classes. Thereareniany
church going ieople who will be attracted
totheshowbythcindorsementoftheclergy.
Mr. Salsbury has one letter from a clergy
man who states that ho has traveled all
oer the world and has never seen a more
moral and amusing exhibition. He further
states that be will take the greatest pleas-'
ure In advocating Its merits to all ibe mem
bers of his congregation.
Too much praise cannot tie awartled the
magnificent chorus of 300 voices. Any
lover of music who falls to hear It will
lose one ot the greatest treats of his life.
Mr. Salsbury is particularly desirous that
the publicunderstnnd that "Black America"
Is In no seme a minstrel show. The total
lack ot effort toward dramatic effect is
evident in theexhlbitlon, and thenegrocs, so
far from being actors, aremercly presenting
to the audience their actual common place
every day life.
To one who has been through the Sunny
South and seen the negro In his own home,
this statement Implies a great deal. And
for those who have not yet Journey e-el below
the Mason and Dixon line it is only neces
sary to state that thesongsand dances the
antics nnd scrambles are the productions
ot the momentary moods of .the artists.
The negro Is seen exactly as he is in his
own home. "HIack America" Is Instruc
tive, entertaining and refined and should be
greeted by 1 arge audiences.
Markos continues his entertaining hyp
notic exhibition at Odd Fellows Hall.
Fair audiences nightly have witnessed his
remarkable display of the mesmeric pow
er, and re-ally demonstrates to a remark
able degree the mysterious influences? over
others. Some ludicrous scenes are caused
by the eiucer actions of the subjects, and
serve to enliven the entertainment.
