MEETING OF
THE SYNOD
Session Begins To-NIght i
Abingdon.
QUESTION OF DIVISION
This Matter Will Pro jably Be the Lead?
ing Issue?Will Raise Twenty?
five Thousand Dollars for
the Orphanage.
The one hundred and sixteenth annual
session of the Presbyterian Synod of Vir?
ginia will begin ut 8 o'clock to-night at
Abingdon. Several of tho Richmond min?
isters will ho In attendance.
Tho Synod Includes in Its bounds all of
Virginia, West Virginia and the District
O? Columbia, anrl a part of Maryland.
It consists of twelve Presbyteries, as
follows: East Hanover, West Hanover,
Norfolk, Chesapeake, Roanoke, Mont?
gomery, Abingdon, Lexington, Winches?
ter, Oreonbrlor. Kanawh;i, Maryland.
There are In the Synod 2!)7 ministers
and 407 churches, In which thero are
J,53S ruling elder?, 1,481 deacouB nnd
44,lit) members. Tho contributions during
the past year were as follows:

Miscellaneous . 20,626
Total.S-ISO.iiSO
This is tho largest Synod In the South?
ern church, and counts among its minis?
ters many of the ablest preachers In
this denomination.
The Synods meet in the full of each
year. Those who are entitled to member?
ship in the body are all the minister?
within Its bounds and one older from
each church, making the number for this
year 207 ministers and 407 elder?, or a
total of 704. But the fact is that only a
small part of those entitled to attend
ayer do so. The largest attendance that
the Synod has ever had was about 260.
As this meeting Is to he so far from
most of tho Presbyterian strongholds
of the State, tho probability Is that the
attendance will not bo very large.
WORK ?G THE SY"OP.
Tho Synod ha? general supervision of
all the churches in its territory, though
It does not deal with them directly, but
through the Presbyteries.
The Presbyterian Church courts form a
seHes of appellale courts, each one wltti
the power of review und control over
the court? below it. The Presbytery ex?
amines and paesos upon the proceedlne?
of the church session, as shown by Us
minutes, nnd approves or disapproves of
them, according as they arc found to
agree or not to agree with- the princi?
ple? and government of the Presbyterian
Church- In the same way the Synod
passes upon the proceedings of the Pres
bytory; and the General Assembly upon
those of the Synod.
Any member of a church who feels
aggrieved at the action of the session
may appeal from Its decision to the Pres?
bytery; then to the Synod, and then to
the Assembly. And this may be done
in even the smallest matters.
? vevy important part of the work of
the Synod Is that of home missions In
Its own bounds. This work is conducted
by a very efllclent committee, of which
Tlev. J. E. Booker, of Lexington, Is
chairman. This work Is dono through
evangelists, who visit weak and vacant
churches and establish mission points In
destitute sentions of the country. This
evangelistic work Is carried on In nil
parts of Its territory, but especially with
rapidly developing regions of Southwest
Virginia and of West Virginie. A groat
deal has been done in the way of build?
ing up tho Presbyterian Church by this
cacane. This cause always occupies
prominent place at the meetings of the
Bynod.
THE ORPHANAGE; PROPOSED
DIVISION.
Another matter that will probably ha
given a good deal of attention at this
meeting Is tho Orphans' Home, recently
opened at Eynehburg, under tho auspices
of tho Synod. This homo Is now In ope?
ration, but In order to put It Into a posi?
tion to do the work that is needed, It
w-III be necessary to raise at least $15,000.
Step? will no doubt be taken to do this,
The matter which will probably attract
moro attention and awnken m?re Inter?
est than anything else will be the ques?
tion of division. Son)? of the members
of the Synod Iihvo for some time f?dt
that the body is too large and ought to
be divided. At the 'meeting last fall In
Norfolk iw propositions were presented,
one for division Into two parts, the other
for division Into three parts. After dis?
cussing the. subject for nearly two da y ?,
p? decision was reached and It was post?
poned to he taken up again at th's meet?
ing. Those who favor division Into two
parts, propose the Blue Ridge mountains
es tho lino. 'Phis would throw Into the
eastern division the Presbyteries of Nor?
folk, rca.st Hanover, West Hanover, Roan?
oke, Chesapeake, Maryland, and a part
of Montgomery, leaving in the other di?
vision a part of Montgomery -and all of
Abingdon, Lexington, Winchester, Creen
tirier, Kanawha.
The other plan, that of a three-fold di?
vision, would make tho following groups
of presbyteries, each to be a separate
Synod: First, Norfolk, East Hanover,
Chesapeako ano Maryland; second, West
Hanover, Montgomery, Ronnoke and
Abingdon; trlrd, Lex'ngton, Winchester,
Graenbrler and Kanawha,
Tho opening sermon will be preached
to-night by the retiring moderator, Rev.
P". .1. Biooke, D. D., of Alexandria.
Employing Printers Meet To-Night,
Richmond Typothetae. will hold their
regular monthly meeting at the Alte?
rnarle Club, No, 20S East Grace Streei,
to>nlght at 8 o'clock;. The object of this
meeting will be to enlarge upon the sug?
gestions made at the last meeting which
the National Secretary. Mr. Freegard, at?
tended. The Interest manifested at that
meeting no doubt assures that this one
to-night will be well represented by the
printers of Richmond to hear and dis?
cuss such Ideas that are good for the
craft.

Mr. George J. Oooklns, of Chicago, has
been selected bv the Musiti Committee of
the Wednesday Club, to he Its d rector
for the season about to open. Mr. uoo
klns Is at present, in tho city, and it is
understood that he Is se.ioiibly consider?
ing making Richmond h.s home hi the
future and opening; a studio hero. The
Music Committee's selection amounts o
more than a, mere nomination, for while
the Board of Governors has to ta Ify
the action, ?is contldenco In the c m
mlttee is so great that the action is m .oh
a matter of form.
Mr. Gooklns Is a teacher of vocal mu?
sic of ability, so It Is said. Besides hav?
ing excellent teachers In Ame ca, he
studied ? London under some of the most
eminent there.
Ab ut the Prize Fir lit,
In Saturday morning's Times-Dispatch
there was printed an account of a pr ze.
fight, which took place Jn Hart?n He ?.its
on Thursday night. Ab this occurred in
the same column with an account f the
rltlens' meeting on the same night, th;
fuels of which were furnished by Dr. R.
H. Pitt, the imp ess on has be'.m m de
that he was responsible f.r Ita pubi ra?
tion. Thl?, however. Is not true, a ? the
Information, ?n which the account of
the pr.ze fight was bated, was fur?
nished by a totally different poison, and
was In the possession of The. ? mes-Dh
ptttoh representative before Dr. Pitt was
seen. The only statement that Dr. Ritt
marie when he was asked a out the
prize fight was to the 'ifect that he
had heard earlier In tiio day that some?
thing of the sort was on hard, and had
called the attention of tho mayor to it.

Tho roles of Katherine and Petruchlo
in Shakespeare's "The Taming of the
Shrew" have attracted the most famous
actors and actresses on tho otage for the
lest century.
In Mr. Daly's opinion, however, no
other actress so completely embodied the
character of the Shrew as Miss Ada Re
han. who appeared as Katherine in the
original production of the complete
Shakespearean drama, as arranged by
Mr. Daly himself, in 1687.
Her co-star. Otis Skinner, who is play?
ing Petruchlo in this revival, was also
In that original cast as the Lucontio.
With two such stars In the leading
roles, It is safe to say that the comedy
will be warmly welcomed at the Academy
to-morrow night.
'?The Silver Slipper."
"The Sliver Slipper," John C. Fisher's
latest musical comedy success, which will
be the attraction at the Academy Thurs?
day and Friday, with Friday matinee,
will bo found to be altogether superb
fiom a spectacular point of view. It
fairly bristles with tuneful music, hilar?
ity and comedy,,and one event of Interest
follows so closely on the heels of its
predecessors that the audiences are kept
on the qui vive without an instant's ces?
sation. This charming musical play Is
by the authors of "Florodora." Owen Hall
being responsible for the book, Leslie
Stuart for the music, and W, H. Risque
for the lyrics. Tho book was rearranged
for the American stage by Clay IM.
Greene, who has Infused blocks of com?
edy and American wit and humor Into
Hall's story of the play. Musically, "Tho
Sliver Slipper" Is particularly strong,
there being twenty-five musical numbers
In all. The majority of these were com
pesed by Leslie Stuart, though, several
numbers that quickly became popular
were interpolated. Of the interpolated
numbers, Sam Collins' topical song, "Then
"I'd Be Satisfied With Life;" Gertrude
Milllngton's "The Girl You Love," a sen?
timental ditty, and the tenor solo of Hor?
ace Wright, entitled "Tessie, You Aro
the Only, Only,? Only," scored Instantane?
ous hits, and are of the whistleablc kind.
? "Paul Qilmore."
Paul Gllmore, who Is booked to appear
at tho Academy Saturday, matinee nnd
night. Is said to have another splendid
opportunity to display his well known
versatility in "The Mummy and? the Hum?
ming Bird." Mr. Gllmore's stellar role,
Lord "Jack" Lumley, was created by
Charles Wyndham In London, and last
season played In New York at the Empire
Theatre by John Drew.
Second Church Music Sunday.
The music at the Second Baptist Church
was of an excollent character on Sun?
day, both meriting and night. In the
ahsence of Mrs. Gunn, the soprano of
tho quartette, Miss Julia Emmett filled
this position. Miss Mabel Dlggos sans
the offertory solo at the morning ser?
vice, and Miss Emmott sang as offertory
at night "The Good Shepherd," by Vali?

greatly enjoyed; she has a strong, sweet
soprano voice. Miss Emmett is related
to Dan Emmett. composer of Dixie. She

THE FINEST
GAME YET
Washington and Leo Wins in
Contest With College.
THE SCORE WAS 11 TO O
Excellent Work Done by the Local
Team?Visitors Liktly to Register
a Protest Against Some
Decision Made.
Pive hundred enthusiasts saw one of
the finest games of foot-ball yesterday
afternoon ever played on tho Broad
Street gridiron, and they saw the Rloh
mond Collego boys go down before tha
Washington and Lee athletes to the tune
of 11 to 0, after a well-played game.
Although they wan the game, the vis?
itors wore not satislled, and It is quite
certain that a protest against the officials
will be registered. The ground for the
protest will be the alleged illegal penal?
izing of the W. and L. team. Had It
not been'for this, tho visitors claim they
would have made a larger score and
their victory would have been more em?
phatic.
On the other hand the local players and
many of the rooters deolaro that but for
rough playing and constant fouling on
the part of the visitors, the game would
have resulted different!)'.
The ofllcials went about their work In
their own way, and paid little attention
to tho comments' or protests of the play?
ers or the crowd. Tho result was that
probably a hundred yards in all was
allowed against tho visitors on fouls and
off-side pluys.
Fro ma spectator's standpoint the game
was spectacular. There was a whole lot
of good playing, some rough and soino
open. Through It all, however, no ono
was badly hurt.
At various stages of the game ?nder?
ten, Ross and Trunrle ret'red, the lat?
ter against his own protest, but upon
the earnest request of Coacli Miles, ??
derton. because he was pretty well worn
out, and Ross because he "sassod" tho
officials.
The game was full of features, put up
principally by J, H. R<3fs, Campbell,
Trundle and Mnomaw for the visitor?, and
Hudgins, Prater, Smith, Lankford and
Splllman.
Both Smith and J. ?G. Alexander per?
formed valuable services for their respec?
tive teams, the former In punting, tho
latter In sprinting and bucking the line.
Richmond w-us on the defensive most of
the time and made nearly all their gains
on punts, while they scarcely crept up a
dozen yards on downs.
There may have been some question lln
the minds of those on tho side lines in
reference to the penalties, as they were
so frequent, but tho officials maintain
that each one was deserving on fouls and
off-side plays. The line-up and score:
