Services Iu Commemoration at
Grace and 81, I'snl Cbntches,
Grace M. E. Sunday school rendered a
program of patriotic exercises yesterday
afternoon, in pises of the regular services.
It was also the last session of Iho school
until after the summer vacation. The
platform wae decorated with banners,
silk flags and flowers. On the wall at the
back of the platform ware two »mall
shields sarmounted by gilt eagles.
The exercises were appropriate to tbs 4th
of July, and consisted of readings, recita
tions and singing; with on address by R»v.
Jacob Todd, D. O., the pastor of tbe
church. H. C. Downward read the Declar
ation of Independence, which was 1 stoned
to with considerable Interest. A selection
of scripture was rend responsively, and
the Apostles Creed was recited in concert,
the school standing. 8o well did the mem
bers know the Creed that although it is
painted on tbe wall in large letters, not an
eye was turned toward it. H. T. Baldwin
Springer recited ''Independence Beil.'*
Miss Alice Pcsey reed "Cswar Rodney's
Ride" end Dorr P. Dlefsndorf recited the
"Battle of Lookout Mountain.
The singing was led by the Grace Church
orchestra of eight pieces, under the leader-'
ship of Hilliard Sweeney of Chester, with
Miss Lizzie Marts at tbe piano. Hymns
appropriate to the occasion were sung from
the Sunday school hymoal, with tba "Star
Spangled Banner'' and ''America.''
Dr. Todd said In bis address that this
nation could only be perpetuated by going
on in the way it began, recognising God
and Bis law. He appealed for tbe semi
religious celebration of the 4th of July, aw
in the past; without the noise, rowdyism
and drunkenness of to-day. He thought In
temperance tbe great evil that tbreateueo
Ibis country. He dr scribed, from hit own
observation, the Ssbbath of continental
Europe, ond contrasted with It the quiet
American Sabbitb. The day is more
honored here than bv any other nation,
and for this we are prosperous. Nations
that have been shipwrecked have failed to
keep strict honesty and obedience to lew.
Let men lose their moral stamina and there
Is no such thing as maintaioing govern
ment, downfall is Inevitable. If we main
tain tbe principles with which we started
the end of our country is thousands of
years in the distance.
Before the benediction was pronounced
the superintendent announced that the
school would Ire closed until (be first Bun
diy in September.
An Interesting program celebrating July
4, was presrt.ted at St. Paul's yesterday
afsernoon. The lecture room In which f»e
exercises were held, was crowded to the
utmost. The decorations were elaborate
there being an ebundancs of national flags
In the front of the room the star# and
stripes covered the wall. Hanging from
the celling was another flag, draped in
folds, and hsneatb the esntre s heil with
the fl.ruree 18S7-18S8. Tbe blue flag
of "Delaware" was also in a con
spicuous place. All the chandeliers and
aud columns were set off with small flags
Tbe program wea opened with tbs national
hymn "My Country Tie of The#." After
the missionary collection and th# siuglug
of tbe hymn "National Blessings" tbe Doc
laration of ladepeadenee was road by
Wllliam Pawley. K Dusbane Cloward
then sang the "Star Bpangled Banner," tbe
vast audlenoo singing the chorus. Th»
thanksgiving choral "Swell tbe Anthem.
Rr.i-e the Bong" was the# sung. Thin
was followed by an address by Rev. L E
Barrett. He spoke of the country's
glorious post, and of ths grand
future, provided the people were morally
educated. The Sunday school and patriot
Ism should go hand in hand The speech
brought forth a more patriotic eeutimant
in those present. After the hymn "Prayer
for Our Native Land." the Hon. Charles B.
Lore addressed the congregation. He said
that the Bible is the foundation of the t»m
ple of liberty. He likened tbs Sunday
school to an army organized against evil.
This country is showing others how good

then presented Mr, Lore and Mr. Cloward
with bouquets. After the elogioc of the

REPUBLICAN RALLY.
THE BIGGEST MASS MEETING
EVER HELD HERE.
Worhlngmen Crowd hy Thoniniida
to Hear About Protection to
American Labor—Democratic Me
chanics Help to Swell the Lager
Mas« at Listeners.
The Republicans of Wilmington held the
largest mass meeting on Saturday evening
tn honor of the nomination of Harrison
and Marlon that was ever held in Dela
ware. Fully 6,000 persona participated In
the ratification rally, one-half of whom
pressed in compact mass around the speak
er's stand for two hours and listened to tbe
praises of the candidates and tbe platform.
The immense gathering was made up
largely of workingmen, who had come
from all parts of the cltv, and tbe motive
for their presence was readily and repeat
edly disclosed by their applause of every
terse and significant reference to protection
of American labor. This sentiment was
undoubtedly the Inspiration of the meeting,
which not merely in number», but also in
earnestness and enthusiasm exceeded any
thine of tbe kind ever attempted iu the
state.
The meeting which wse held on the fed
eral square at 9th and Shipley Sta, was
preceded by a parade, organized by the
Y. M U. C. ot their headquarters 810 Kir g
St.,with Thomas Holt, marshal of the club
iu command. Hyatt's military band led
tbe procession, which made a tour of the
principal streets, marching about an hour
ond illumina' iug its coarse with pyroteeb j
nice. It was 8 30 o'clock when W eshit g- 1
ton Hestings in place ot Henry F. 1' ckels,
who was chairman ot tbe committee on {
arrangements, called the
to order end Introduced Joseph 1'yle,
meeting
the well-known manufacturer, os
chairman, and Edmund Mitchell, Jr., pres
ident ot the Y. M. R. C., as secretary of
the meeting Tbe gentlemen on tbe plat
form, who filled all tbe seats, were declared
vice presidents. Mr Pyle at ouce took
hold of tba tremendous mass of humanity
and in a few well chosen and elcquuot sen
teuces arrested everybody's attention and
evoked the wurmest enthusiasm. He culled
out cheer after cheer for the ticket, and for
protective tariff. He introduced Edward
G Bradford, Esq , a delegate to Chicago,
as the first speaker.
Mr. Bradford began with a warm tribute
to the men and the work of the Chicago
Convention. Ho eulogizad the candidates
and stated clearly and briefly the more
significant propositions of the platform.
He contended that the Republican party
stood for the propperity, the intsiligouo«
and the morality of the country. He be
lieved with the Republican party thnt the
first duty ot tbe country U to its citizens
Protection to American industry and a
!ree ballot ned a fair count were the issues
of this contest He spoke warmly of Mr.
Blaine, references to whom were heartily
cheered,and pledged that the Maine states
man would not be a silent spectator in this
fight. Ornerai Harrison would surely be
the next President ot the United States.
Charles H. Treat ot Georgetown, a dele
gate tc Chicago from Sussex county, fol
lowed Mr. Bradford. Mr. Treat is an
excoerfiugly popular speaker. Hi» illustra
tions ore always happy and his "cute
Y ankee" ideas of things are always intensely
Interesting to bis audience. This meeting,
he slid, was tbe first notice of ejectment in
November next to Grover Cleveland.
Mr. Treat sait, that in the debate over
ths anti-saloon plank (or the national plat
form a gentler tan who knew him said:
'•General Harrison's name is a temperance
plank in itself,
date, said Mr. Treat, was at home both In
a prayer meeting and in the United Htales
Renate. Could Grover Cleveland bold bis
own in either!
The Republican candl
| happy vein, illustrating all bis argu
j mente with the eptoet anecdotes which set
the audience wild He paid a beautiful
j tribute to the Republican leaders and
' warmly defended the American system-of
j protec Jon. He said in part;
Benjamin Nields was tbe third speaker
-of tbe evening. He spoke ic bis usual
Anfimov Higgins was greeted with
applause as he arose to speak. Kr. Higgiet
as usual .poke straight to the point In terse
forcible language H. bn.flf reviewed
the record of the Rspubkcan party on the
tariff question; went bock to tko days of
Henry Clay and th* tariff of 1833 and
showed how tbe American workingman
Uvesin cr.m_ortand happiness under the
present tariff
The speaker denounced the candidacy of
Cleveland and Thurman as • conspiracy to
destroy the American system. The
country was not now «ff eric g the evils of
tree trade for went of a willing Democratic
majority iu the House or tbe sanction of a
Democratic President. It bad esc.pwl the
evil solely because . Repubhcm, He nets
had blocked It. way. T.ls was tbe old
conspiracy inaugurated by John C. Cal
houu in a n«w form. The cotton grower
was determined to buy his goods a. cheaply
as possible without regard to his market or
the welfare of the rest of the country. They
bad a solid SouMi and expect by tbe aid of so
uneducated and unpatriotic foreign vote in
New York and the adj »cent states of Cm
necticut aud New Jerwy to elect their
President without reason or orguroajt and
without any respect to the great inter«..
of the rest of the country. To the interests
and arguments of a great people they on
swered with tbs brutal and bloodstained
sfiidity of the Southern vote.
Governor Wermouth told tbe fpeeker et
Chicago last week that when be was first
named as tbe gubernatorial candidate in
tba recent election farce is Louisiana lead
"Oar opponents say they do not odvoeate
free trade, but only u modification of the
tariff. I« this true! If you will road Presi
dent Cleveland's message to Congress yen
will find there the strongest argument in
favor of free trad# that can be made, ard
Preside»; Cleveland's administration
would adopt free trade pursuant to the
recommendations in his tneieej.;« if it hod
the power to do It. They are la favor of
protection only until they can destroy it.
They are like the veterinary surgeon wi o
doctored a cow. The cow died. He sent
io a bill for his services as follows; 'Far
curing your cow until she died, *10.' "
In conclusion Mr. Xleldg sold that iu
General Harrison the Republicans pre
sen ted to the country an orator, a soldier,
a scholar and a statesman as «gainât Grover
Cleveland who was neither of these.
log Democrats triad to dissuade him from
doing it by threatening to ostracise hie
family socially. Bat he refused to con
s'der that and entered the race. In the
contest which followed, said Warmoutb,
they whipped over 800 Republican negroes
until the blood ran to their heels, and they
shot the colored leaders in one-half of the
Louisiana parishes One man at Monroe,
who was merely wounded by a bullet, was
visited by the mayor and a company of
white men who insisted that be must go to
the Court House if he would have the au
thorities protect him from further barm.
Under these pledges the bleeding wretch
left bis home tor the le . time, for at the
Court House they Cut bis throat from
car to ear, wrapped him in chains
and snnb the body into the bayou. It is by
such means that the free traders expect to
win, said Mr. H'ggins What will the pa
triotic men of the north say to this I What
will the men of industrial Wimington say I
There is nut a man, nor a class, nor
a race in this city that should not oppose
the free traders If, for example, the
Irishmen cf this city, in view of the history
ofEbelr native land, can vote for Cleve
land, they will not only be enemies to their
own industrial independence, but they will
b-trny Ireland as well. In this state,
through the instrumentality of Democratic
assessors and other Democratic scoundrel?,
•her.
live thousand mechanics and workingmen
who cannot vote their opinions this fall,
but even here the enemies of American
labor shall not have a walk-over. Tbe
speaker wanted to know what the Ameri
can fishermen thought ot the weak and
pusillanimous surrender by Secretary
Bayard of their rights to Canada under
the direction ot this selfsame greedy Eug
land which was the most deeply interested
party in Cleveland's election,
evening,
botweon four
ami
are
Mr. Hastings was the last ppcaker of the
Ho rej deed with Governor
| Foreker of Ohio that the Republican
candidate for President was a gentleman,
He also rejoioed that Grover Cleveland
bad bad tbe courage to bring bis party opto
asquareissue. The President had pulled his
party out ot tbe hole of dissimulation in
which it bad stuck for many years and bad
1 placed it on a plane where it could be
teen and understood ot all men It hud
been double-faced and hypocritical for
years on the question of protection, but
Grover Cleveland had at last given it away
oud exposed to tbe country the falsity of
its former pretensions.
After Mr. Hastings bad concluded bis
speech Chairman Pyle announced that Wil
liam C Hpruance, Erq., had been prevented
from attending tbe meeting by the death c f
Mrs. Bpottswood, his mother-in-law,nt New
Cattle, and that Levi C. Bird, Esq., had
also been constrained to remain away on
account ot sickness in bU family. A letter
from Mr. Bird was read, which cordially
supported the objnet of the meeting.
Charles M. Curtis, Eeq . read a series of
resolutions at tbe conclusion of tbe meeting,
warmly approving the Republican candi
dates and platform. The meeting ad
