An annual concert, the seventh in tho history of the choir, was given in the edifice of the Lo Jayetto avenuo Presbyterian church on Thursday evening. It was considered to be the best of the series. The church was crowded as well in the galleries as on tho floor. The solos by Miss Van, Miss Hamlen, Mr. Williams and Mr.

Reddall carried off most of the honors, althoush tho other numbers given by the choir were met with liberal applause. "When Spring Awakens," a chorus by Woinzierl, was the opening number. Mr. Williams then gave Wagner's prize song from the "Meistersingers." "Stars of the Summer Night," a glee by Smart, was rendered by the choir, aud Miss Van sang in solo "In Jane."

Rhoailes Talked of the Spirit of God in Jien, Dr. Bnlrd Occupied tho Pulpit or the Puritan Congregational Church, and a fnlon Seminary Mndent Was neard by Gret no Avenue 1'aptlslK. Tho Bev. Gcorgo B. Kramer, at one time pastor of the Union avenue Baptist church, preached at both services yesterday at tho City park chapel, which Is in tho euro of the First Presbyterian ohuroh and which is ou Concord street, noar Prince.

His morning subject was "The Head of the Church." He took as his text Ephosians 1:22, 23: "And gavo him to be tho head over all things to the olmrch, which is His Tho sermon was a lino exposition of Christ as a true head, the Kulor and tho Master of man through lovo. In tho evening Dr. Kramer had for his subject, "Tho Glory in tho Mirror." Ho took two texts, "Looking unto Je3U8." Hebrews "Wo all with open iaco beholding as in a glass tho glory of tho Lord, as ehangod from glory to glory oven as by tho spirit of tho Lord," This discourse spoke or tho mirror being tho gospel, which reflects tho glory of Christ. "We see the Christ of Matthew, Mark, Luko and John now the glorified Christ of tho Acts, the epistles and tho Apocalypse. It is the glory I tho Lord on which wo look.

And wo are changed not from glory to glory, as going from one" degree of glory to another, but by tho glory on which wo look we aro changed into the same glory." At tho Marey avenuo Baptist church the pastor, tho Rev. Dr. W. C. P.

Bhoodcs. preached a strong sermon to a large congregation yesterday morning. He took his text from Ephesiitns "And grieve not the holy spirit of God, whereby ye aro sealed unto the day of redemption." From these words ho showod God's care of tho individual, God's plan to mako known His care In tho gift of a modiator, Jesus Christ. While Christ could not be present nil the time He sect us this gift of the Holy Ghost. Tho spirit of God in men is not independent of the wllL The seal of God by the Holy Spirit is put upon man when he takes upon himsllf this ehangod nature becomes new creature showing that wo are ownud of Him.

Seal is tho sign of possession. Wo nro settled for purpose unto Him unto the day of redemption; sealed unto Him tor His protection, Uencc tho injunction, grieve not the Holy Spirit; Ignoro not. At the Puritan Congregational churoh, Marcy and Lafayette avenues, yesterday morning tho Bev. Dr. A.

F. Baird of tho American Missionary association presented the cause of tho colored people and Indians, and made a strong appeal, an effort being mado in accordance with a resolution prosentod by the Kov Dr. B. B. Moredith at tho annual meeting in Hartford in October last to have the churches of tho Congregational denomination pledge themselves to do all in tholr power to increase thpir contributions at least 12 per to meet the deficiency arising from our refusal, on principle, to accept a government appropriation for Indian work.

This appropriation had been $22,000. Tho Bov. Dr. E. V.

Torhune, tho pastor, preached in tho evening on "The Mightiness of Christ." taking his text from Isaiah the last three words: "Mighty to Suve." The Bev. R. B. Montgomery, pastor of the Greene avenuo Baptist church, having been taken suddenly ill, Mr. John Ellson, a Union seminary student, filled his place vory accep tably, preaching from Mark "Lord, I believe; help thou mlno unbelief." Mr, Montgomery was in his own pulpit In the evening, though far from well, and against his doctor's orders.

His subject was "Confosslng.Christ," the text being found in Matthew "Whomsoever, therefore, shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my father which is in heaven." The Bev. Henry M. Gnllaher, D. pastor of Trinity Baptist church, preached yesterday morning froth the words found in Acts "And when Puul had gathered a bundle ot sticks and laid them on tho Are, there came a viper out of tho heat and fastened on tils hand." His theme was that man should do the duty which lay before him. Although Paul was a commander, when no wanceu a tuing aone no did it himself.

On tho question of tho religion of somo people the doctor said it was like an umbrella carried under the arm with tlio point poking out somebody's eyes. He boliovod in a religion that made of man a cheery creature. The new addition, although not fully completed, was usod and gave accommodation to many. A similar one is to be built on tho other side, and the auditorium will then scat about ono thousand. Tho church was crowded both morning and evening.

Tho ltey. James Montgomery of the Janes M. E. church and tho Bev. Dr.

C. W. Parsons ot tho Hanson placo M. E. church exchanged pulpits yesterday morning.

Each was iu his own pulpit in tho evening, Mr. Montgomery preaching on the subject, "Tho Great Invitation," Kevela tion "And the spirit and tho bride say, Como. And let him that heareth say, Come, And let him thut is athirst como. And whosoever will, lot him take the water of life The Ninety seventh company and drill corps, who have recently chosen the Bev. Samuel A.

Eliot as their ohaplain, attended services at tho Church of the Saviour yesterday morning. They woro their now uniforms and presented a very soldierly appearance. Tho Bev. Mr. Eliot preached and took his text from Romans "Not slothful In business, fervent In spirit, serving the Lord." His thenis was the proper use of the faculties nnu opportunities wniuu God has given us.

Ho 6aid in brief: "Practice makes perfoet. Improvo your talents or lose them. That seems bard, but it is true. Use and improve your conscience or it becomes torpid. The fishes in Mammoth cave loso their eyesight.

A language learnnd but not spoken is soon forgotten. Tho right development of our faculties means Erogress. Eecli generation is born on little ighor lovel than the one before Progress Is duo to individual effort. Evory lnzy man i an obstruction. The most unhappy pcoplo aro those who liavo nothing to do.

Time has no valun in itself, hut is a base metal that wo can trauBmute into fine gold. People who arc not interested In anything are virtually dead. Virtues grow by use and our vioes follow tho samo rule. Nothing worth having is won in a min ute. A constant dnppmg wns if aar a stonu, yet tho stone in worn as much ly tho first drop as By the thousandth.

Tho Rev. Dr. James M. Farr.ir preached to tho children yesterday morning apropos of Rose Sunday, taking his text from Song of Solomon "I am the roso of Sharon and tho lily of tho valleys." His regular morning sermon was from tho words found in Luko "And ho called his ten servants and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto thorn, Occupy till I come." In the evening the doctor's subject was 'Tillows and liioows ana tne text xiii "And say. Thus saith tho Lord God.

woo to the women that sow pillows to all armhoios and mako korchiers upon tho head of evory statue to hunt souls'. Will yo hunt tho souls ot my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?" Xho Rev. Allrod 1'. Aowion, pastor ot tne Rochester avenue Contrreg.itional church, spoko yesterday morning on tho subject, "Saved Goto Completion." Ho took his text from Hebrews "Whereforo ho is ablo to save them to the uttermost that rorr.n unto God by him, seeing that ho over livoth to mako intercession for them." His evening discourse was on "Tho True and False Views of the A Junior Christian Endeavor society, to which all young people under 14 yoars of ago aro eligible to membership, was organized in this church yesterday morning. The annual meeting for businoss and tho election of trustees will be hold on Wednesday ovoning.

The Rev. Thomas Bridges has not formally accepted tho oall as tho assistant pastor of tho Tompkins avenue Congregational church, and will not do so, if at nil, until fall, although ho has been actively at work acting in that capacity and has made many visits. His work so far has been very effective and ho is much liked. comes from Kentucky and not Illinois, as at first nnnouncod. The Bev.

Dr. J. O. Wilson, pastor of tho Simpson M. E.

church, preached in his own pulpit yesterday morning the sermon which he delivered in tho Tabernacle two weoks ago, doing so by request. Tho Now York Stnto Sunday School association will for th'o first time in irs history, hold Its annual meeting at Chnutauquit ou Juno 28, 29 30. At the East Congregational church the pastor. Rev. Dr.

Doremus Kcutlder, discoursed twice yesterday. Mrs. Scuddcr, his wife, who is tho superintendent of junior Christian Endeavor work in tho olmrch, delivered fine addross at tho 7 o'clock meoting of the Christian Endoavor society in tho Rev. John F. Carson's Central Presbyterian church last evening.

Mcw, su Bev. Dr. Behrends on the Decision a) of the United States Judges. lie Does Xot Regret It, bnt Scores the Local Directory of tin Columbus Exposition Chicago Sot to Be Bhimcil Plenty of Work Tor Christians and Churches In That City Per sonal I xumplc and Responsibility Xo Coy cutting Necessary. The Central f'onirrogational church was flllod With an attentive assembly yesterday to hear Bev.

lir. lje hrends deliver his goodby word before starting on his trip to tho State of Washington. 11 selected ns his toxt I Corinthians i. and announced as his subject 'Th'. Decision to op the Columbus Exposition en Sunday." lie said: There ar.

victories which bring neither credit nor prollt to those who enjoy them: there ara defeats which bring neither nor loss to those who sutTcr them. The servant is not above his master, and if Christ himself did not escape ridicule, bitter enmity and deliberate troaehory the church must expect to bo treated with disrespect and scorn. But tho cross brought shame only to those who reared it, aud they who arc persecuted for righteousness sake are among the blessed. Truth is miglity and will prevail; for lu the long run it becomes plain that tho fear of God means tho welfare of man. Against the chalk cliffs of Dover the angry waters of the English channel have dashed for centuries, wearing away a bit here and bit there, changing slightly tho contour of the stoop const; but tho white sontine's stand there still, laughing iu the weak hands which beat upon their feet.

And Christ has built His churoh upon a rock, so that the gates of Hades cannot prevail against hor. L'p to lute hour last evening I had Intended to speak upon another theme than tho ono which 1 linvo now sele ted. My thoughts experienced an involuntary wp nch when 1 road the judicial decision announcing that the local directory of th" worid fair could not be forced to eloaj the gates on Sunday. I presume th" decision is good law. i cannot say that i was disappointed in the result.

The temper mid methods of the local director; convinced mo long ago that they would nv no stone unturned to sot aside the condition which i nnsn: imposed. I cannot even say that I regret tho decision. It seems to me eminently fair and just. Our chief ju tleo has not betrayed us. Ho has simply ifxed the responsibility wher" it belongs.

1 fear that ho will bo criticized, but I am that ho acted houestiy ntid wisely. The local directory of the world fair has" betrayed us. But the local directory is not Chicago, and wo should be cool headed enough to mako tho distinction. It was expected that half tho city would rush to Jackson parlc when tho gates were opened for tho llrst timo on a Sunday. Throo hundred thousand were looked for.

Seventy thousand came out of a population of 1.200.U()0. Reduce, the latter number as you please aud it is plain that Chicago did not clamor for Sunday opening. Hut what shall wo do? Shall wo boycott the lair? Tho question lias boen ralso'd in private conversation, in ecclesiastical gatherings, on tho platform and in tho press. Thore can be no question thnt thousands will stay away because the gates are to be open on i Sunday. And such are not to ho charged with bigotry.

Ihoy will not be laughed down, and their money will In; missed. And thov will be just the people who would bo most benefited by tho fair. For tho fair is for the masses, aud the toilers aro just tho people who prize their Sundays most. Simply as a business polioy, tho Sunday opening strikes me as stupid blunder. It will not pay.

It will alionato more than it will attract. It is a sop to a local constituency and a slap in tho faco of millions. It will not pay. "Hut what shall I do?" you ask mo. I cannot answer that quos tiou for you.

1 would rather a man should be narrow than indifferent. If you havo auy doubt iu tho matter, stay away. If you go with an uneasy feeling and think you would como away with a restless mind stay "where you are. You can bo happy and useful without making the trip. Perhaps you can spend your money to better advantage Still, the boycott Is hardly a Christian way of uttering our protest.

I havo already suggested a better way by going on a Sunday where you ought to lio. What a grand thing it would be for a 100,000 Christians to crowd the churches in Chicngo. If 1 were thoro as p.astor 1 should take no vacation this summer. It may be that the best thing for you to do is lo go ami lot tho Chicago Christians know that you are with then in their light. Tho prineiplo oi breaking with overybody who does not think ns wu do anil of refraining Irom everything which other people abuse eaunot bo made to work.

It would compel us to beeomo hermits. This is God's world, even though tho devil has much to do with it. And true religion consists largely in substituting a right use of tho world for a wrog us" of it. The beauty, the skill, concentrated within the fair grounds, aro not the property oi a Sabbath defying directory, nnd vou pav those muu too much honor when you lump the whole nfTair in that way. You havo a right these six days in tho weok, a right which neither God nor man can challenge, it is only on tho seventh day that tho divine mandate confronts you.

This, at least, is my sober and sincere conviction, though 1 say to every man. woman and child among you "Whatsoever is not of faith is sin. Lot every man bo fully persuaded ia his own mind." I Jo not think that you will sin it you go, and remember the Snbbath day to keep it holy, and I shall respect you if upon conscientious grounds you stay awny. And I would ithor have you stay away if you feel that you cannot ask God's biessing upon your going. This thought is uppermost with mo in my rolioctions upon this matter.

I am rcstion sli.lo only for my own character and conduct, an.l 'or my earnest endeavor to Inlluenco my follow men for good. My supreme mission in the world Is the mission of personal example, it is well for us to be now nnd then that goodness triumphs by life, and not by law, for life is tlio highest law. The early Christiana bought their food in tiie public markets. They know that it had been consecrated to idols. But neither in the purchase of It, nor in tlio wiring, did they become dollied.

They did not beeomo defenders of idolatry. They bought and nto, giving God thanks. So may we nave pari in the world's progress and fount our eyes and minds upon all that is great iu achievement without becoming partakers ot other men's sins nnd without compromising our Christian integrity and fidelity. Turn the iuio a Jay ot amusement aud some must work while others play. Tho desecration divides men into two classes, those who wor only six days ia tho week an.l those who toil 0:1 seven Jays.

That provokes an irro pressible conflict, 'i'lio enforced labor of somo means tho enforced labor ot all. Either all must rest or all must work. And, thoroforo, wlo lb" Christian church raliiesto the dofense of tho day of rest acts as tho champion ol humanity's God giving rights, against tho blind fur of those who, iu the uamo of Troodoin, would forge anew the chains ot slavery.

LAST SERMON TILL FALL. Rev. John "White Chadwick Talks of Our Bounden Duty. ffe Will Now Leave Town for a i.o.ig Period of Best and Recreation in the Country, and Will Return to His Pulpit in Scptemliei Hie Second I'nitariaii Chin ch Vus Filled With a Highly Interested Congregation Yi'Ktorilny. In the Second Unitarian church, Clinton and Congress streets, yesterday morning, llev.

John Y. Chadwick preached tho closing sermon summer and also completed his twenty ninth year as pastor. His vacation will extend to September. Mr. ('haawicl; will spend his resting time nt Ches'icrllekl, Mass.

Tho text of his disco urse was entitled "Our Bounden Duty." He said in part: There are expressions that drop easilv and thoughtlessly from our lips that have moaning in tliom as a drop of dew might hold oi electricity, but which is something vastly men portentous in I ho newspaper rhetoric of to day. One of lie so expressions which I always like to hoar.osi eially if it is used with so me appreciation of lis solemn force, is "Our bound on duty." Doubtless it is somewhat redundant, tautological. The objective contributes nothing which is not iii the noun. Is not all our duty our bounden ontyV Is our duty anything in the world but simply that which we are bound to doV Nevertheless tho adjective, if it has no extensive, has an extensive force. It carries with it a suggestion of tho fine old motto of the French nobility, noblesse oonge, noMiny compels, whic bcin" trans iincu out (j i uio special into tlio uni into the uni versal, reads, advantages aro obligations, or if nn old fashioned scriptural rendering is more desirable you have it in the words, "From him to whom mu' Is given much nlso la The motto of the French nobility was a lino motto to live up to, but they did not live up to it.

If thoy had dono so the voar 17H3 would not be known as simply '93. It would not have been so taniously distinguished from tho other that it could be so abbreviated without four of a misunderstanding. Never was privilege loss tho inspiration of high character and generosity than with tho mon who came to thoir account in tho French revolution and who lost their heads because they had first lost their minds, tholr hearts, their consciences, their souIb. But when you come to think of it, what wero their privileges and their advantages compared with those which are enjoyed by many men nnd women who have no titled rank. "To ono Ho gave live talents, to another two, and to au otiier one." So reads tin: parable.

Rut tho disparities of human life range through a much wider difference than that. There are those who have one and those that have 500 or 5,000. I am not speaking new of things acquired, but of tho natural gifts, of which tho things acquired may bean outward and visible sign, but aro not always. What differences confront us every day hero tin ori.vinnl outllt is so small and there It is so large, so splendid, so mngnillcent. The disparities of human fortune aro not greater than the disparities of intellectual ability aud active power.

If tho laborer Is worthy of his hire deserving of rewards piled up proportionately to his industrial forco and genius, then some men cannot bo too rich or otuor men too poor. Look at tho orators, tho poets, the actors who can so enter into the'eou cepuires oi tne pools tnat wo llnd a new argument for immortality in thinking and wondering how much Booth and Shalcspcaro would llnd to talk about if they could meet somewhere in heavenly placos; the painters aud the" sculptors, ton. and the musicians, and over against all these look at tho commoner run of men, their Ideas and capacities so low, their powor of thought to weak, their sense of beuuty so dull. Wo all know men and women ot whom we can truly say: Tis ns easy for them to bo good and true As for fields to be green or Kkies to bo blue: i is their lint oral way of living. Tho natural habit of thoir blood to which the heavenly powers havo kindly given a moral How.

Such people do not know the meaning of temptation. And then thoro aro others whoso gravitation is downward. There is somo black drop in their veins. If thov attain the lofty table land of roctitudo, the crowning summits of self sncriiioe. it is not by uny help of wings: It is by climbing all tho way and inanv a time hewim some pathway in the mountain wall.

An. I through all this 'range of dilTurcneo ranges tho law ot bounden duly, and the superiorities and the 1 advantages are the things that bind: they make tho obligations. To whom much is given from tliom also much i 'quired. But the ap prehension of tie so thlms as so is not so g. i oral nor so vivid as we might itesiro.

We' are! reminded of those words Jesus: "How hard i ly shall they who have richer enter Into tho kingdom ot heaven." They may havo meant no moro than thnt it was verv hard for neb i mon to surrender tholr possessions to a com mon Edward i.vcr. tt Halo has said that an oi ins rich men have not there, but his saying was a sorry joke. In truth, if it is ot materia! richness that we speuk, while it itmv bo difficult for those who have riches to enter tho kingdom of heaven, the realm of moral order nn.l bciioiicence, for those who hnvon't riches it is inorw difficult. The extremes of fortune are not good raw material for the imr.il life. Mis erv mai: wtek p.t esq oi 1 1.

men who live in l'. ookivn tciu.iiK.nts ".,1,.,,, seek tho bright and pleasant precincts of thosa loon, so social and companionable withal. It is tor good that they go there as well as bad tho good tho main attraction, nut tho bad. Tho trouble with those who have riches especially with thoso who have thorn with splendor and excess, is a different trouble. It 'is that they aro treated by the community not as ir.en.

but as ri. men. and ko come to think of themselves. They are cut off from that natural interchange of human sympathy which is the best tiling ia human life tie kingdom of heaven upon earth. But however it may bo with men's material wealth it does seen as if those who havo life's other riches lind thorn a barrier opposing their entrance to that sympathy and modesty of which tho kingdom of heaven upon onrt it is all compact.

Advantages aro obligations, but how often are the so interpreted' by those who have tho most? Perhaps no than by tile French nobility, with thoir Hue motto. 1 'crimps much oftener than wo think, lu iife and books wo know of sonic, and not a few to whom much has boon given ami from whom much nan been required, and. not in vain. Such a man was Charles Sumicr. There was a man whose physical magniP.coiiee and mmilv beauty so matched the vigor of hi mind, the grace of his imagination, that le was anothr nbsoluto man, as Novallo called Luther, saying: "In him soul and body were not divided.

And nil his powrs and gifts and urac were as the sword laid 11a: upon the should of a vouth'ul squire, knighting him for the use or evorv honorable onus" and every virtue as d.

The Englishman Must Conic to Tcrm Within That Time, or the Champion Will Call Their Match Off and Challenge the World Tor a Finish Fight Anxious for a Go With Jackson. Chicago, 111..

June 19" If Charlio Mitchell does not sign articles of agreement within six weoks to light mo either in one ice or another I will declare the match off at once." sniil Jim CorDett, in his dressing room at tho Ifaymarkot theater last night. "It may surpriso tho public to know that the negotiations in thoir present form arc binding on neither side, although we both have our money up. "Tho fact of tho mattor is," continued tho champion, "wo aro tirod of waiting for Mitchell to settle dollnitely where he will fight. I signed articles to light him boford tho Coney Island Athletic club for imrso of 40,000 just ns ho was leaving this country for England. Ho left the cntiro matter in the hands of Lawyer Hum mell of New York, who cabled to Mitchell im mediately nftor I had signed, intorminc him of tho facts.

Tho answer came that all was satis factory, but lutor a cablo was received by Mr. stating that Mitchell had decided to wait until he returned to this country boforo ho signed. "No; I cannot 6ay that I doubt he will meet me. but wo will not continuo tho match in its present one sided form. I decided to day to give Cliarloy six weeks' time to put his signature whero mine is, that length of time being amplo for him to comply.

Wo cannot toll why ho is holding back, possibly it being because he thinks wo can do better elsewhere. On that point I will say that, although I have agreed to contost at Coney Island, such agreement cannot be mado binding without Mitchell's signature. It is only natural that wo look for tho best purso inducements. "If at tlio end of six weoks Mitchell does not sign articles, I will issue a ohnllongo to tho world, Peter Juckson preferred, and post a substantial forfeit to light for 510.000 a side and tho championship of tho world." P0U.VDED WITH A PICK HANDLE. JL Serious Affray lieiirciiii Drunken Italians in JFIu A bloody fight botwoon two Italians occurred at 7 o'clock Sunday evening on tho Philips estate, the west sido of which borders on Parsons avenuo in tho village of Flushing.

A largo gang of Italians nro omployed in grading stroets on the property, which has recently boon sold lor building purposes, and last night a numbor of them were drunk and quarrelsome. Donato Sapnneso and another Italian engaged in a light and his assailant belabored Sapanese over the head with tho handle of a pick ax laying open his scalp some some throo Inches on tho leftside of the head. Another blow inflicted an ugly cut ovor tho right temple. Tho wounded man fell to tlio ground bleeding copiously and was taken into tho barn nearby and laid upon some hay. His assailant, whoso namo could not be ascertained because none of the guug would divulge it, ran rapidly toward tho Murray Hill station, with his coat over his arm and probably escaped by train before an alarm was given.

Miss Wiso and another woman, both nurses from tho Flushing hospital, went to tho barn aud examined Sapansse. They said the wounds wero serious, but probably not fatal. Poiieo Offlccr Tompkins impressed a couple of tho Italians into his service and removed tho wounded man to tho Flushing hospital, whero ho roceived medical attendance. A PASTOR'S FIRST ANNIVERSARY.

Tho brief summary of work dono concluded was highly appreciated by nil, as follows Funerals, 11; marriages, pastoral visits made, 875; members received, 128.

kuown as tho big Uo.id it is because they urn mon of intelligence. As one of th" speakers at tho bnn quot given to tho hnr'iy seamen last uight put it, "Tlio poor fellows stand in more danger oulnud than they did at sea." Thoy nro tho idols ot tho Scandinavian raeo Iu gcnon'i 1 and of the Norwegians in particular. All this feeling 1ms not been called lortli by tho mere fact that Captain Aadorsen'B font has rivaled tho ono told of f.iuf Erieksen and his men In crossing the broad Atlantic like bold sea rovors years ago. Johan Engelsen sdoko to tne" toast of "Tho Ladies" nnd said that the courage of the wives, sisters, mothers or sweethearts of tho men on tho Viking crew was not less than their own. It their friends hero felt anxious, how must theso women ou tho other side have fi lt' There is a larger colony of Norwegians in this city than In any other in tlio United States, there being vr thirty five thousand p.

Most of thoni aro at ono in honoring tho captain and crew ot tho Viking, bo there was a big crowd ou hand lit the banquet, ball and reception given to them in Prospect hall. Prospect avenue, near Fifth, last night. They had not been allowed to rest yesterday, however, for the Norwegian Singing society of Brooklyn had a reception during tho day ou board the Viking, at the foot of Twenty fourth stroet. North rivor.

when a number of Norso songs wero and then tho captain of tho now ocean steamor America of tho Thlng valla lino invited tho whole party on board his ship atyl a jolly time followed. Ah a result most or the members, including ('. 1J. Nelson of the sheriff's office, woro so hoarse last night as to be only able to speak iu whispers. It was nearly 9 o'clock when Captain Andersen and his crow entered tho hall, bearing with them the onco dreaded banner ot a rav on a scnrlet Held, which was hailed with cheers and placed alongside tho Norwegian Ilag which decorated one sido of tho stage, the Stars ami Stripes occupying tlio other.

The staircase lending to the hall room was decorated with trees and shrubs, and the room itself was decorated with tho Spanish rod and yellow. Captain Anderson is well known in Brooklyn, having established and conducted for three years the Scandinavian Sailors' homo on Hamilton avenuo. for tho purpose uf rescuing Jack nshoro from tho boarding house sharks that infest Now York. Couaequuntly ho was grueted by numbers of old friends. After a while the reporters got a ehanoo ut hirn in a private room.

Ho said that ho has received several presents. Including a memorial tea spoon from Mavor Courtney of Newport, on which is reproduced the old Norso tower of that place. He has boen also presented with a large oil um of photographic views of Newport. Ho told with or his visit to Mrs. Van there, and of the quantity of champagne imbibed by tho crew at her resldonco.

But bettor than nil a numbor of Columbia college athletes had asked to bo allowed to go as a supplementary cruw, ou the little Viking to Chicago and to pay all thoir own expenses on tho trip. Ho was mightily pleased by this proposal, but from Christiana cam" a most welcome gift in recognition of his feat. Ringness A brewers of thatflty, have rorwardod hero 1.000 bot tles, of Viking beer and 2.00U bottles more, or as niuch as may bo required, tor the crow to use in Chicago and so save thorn from that city's muddy wator. This Is a new and special brand ordered for tho occasion, and Captain Andorson honrtily invited tho newspaper men to come and partake of it, which ho assured them was far superior to the best Imported German beor. Ho wound up by calling ou all present to drink to tho American press, saying ho wished ho could instill a little of the life of tho American news gathorors inlo thntof hid own statT.

To the strains of Tlolmann's Viking march tho guests and their entertainers lllod down to dinner, to which about two hundred people sat down. It consisted of mock turtle soup, boiled bluo llsh, beef a la mode, roast veal, green peas and string boaus, roast chicken, Bulad. coffee and enko, lco cream, fruit and candies. All present pitched into theso good things with a vigor that showed that tho appetites of tho old sea rovers hail ndod to thoir children. Then Mr Ihlseng aroso and, in Norso, runde nn address of welcome to the gallant captain and his crew, which was replied to by Dr.

on their behalf. The toast of "America" was responded to by Mr. Peter Groth in suitable term. Mr. Koppernd, a Norwegian journalist, spoko to and for tho guests, Mr.

H. Jieyniert made nn address in English, In the conrso of which ho stated that ho had been asked to do so for the benefit of the friends who did not understand Norso, but who had I thorn the courtesy to be present. Ho said in pari Dr. Volcmar has stated to you tho purpose of bo voyage, anu inpiain Andersen lias told vou that ho Is just as true to day to the principles liberty and fraternity as were the Vikings of old ana which aro tho underlying principles of American liberty. Norway has to day as brave and hardy mariuers as wero tho Vikings of 1,000 years ago.

Our friends here have boon having speeches fired at them, they have been wining and dining during those days past, and now tin poor fellows are going to havo some more llrod at them. Thoir danger on land is greater than tho dangers of the sen. We Norsemen in this Columbiuu year claim ns much to have discovered America as did Columbus and the Spaniards. Wo havo had a Spanish princess hero, but tho visit of tho Norsemen is of greater significance than the visit of tho Spaniards. Cheers.

The Norso blood has given mora to America than tho Spanish blood has. It has given through Great Britain the courage of the Vikings; It has told a talo in this country. In this year wo tiavo good cause to bo proud of our rr.co, and nowatlast wearo recognized, cheers, I speak not now to our own people but to others. I had a talk a few days ago with a college professor, an instructor of youth who asked mo why if wo discovered the country we did not hold it. I told him thnt the Vikings were too busy.

But thoy did all they could at the time, thov recorded the discovery in tho Ice landic sagas, tho original ot are i now in Chicago whither thoy have bo sent by the Danish government. Thoy recorded the discovery, and the Spnnianls jumped our i claims several hundred years later. I asked this learned professor: "Why did not the Span inrds hold it? Why did not the French hold it? Why did not England hold it?" Columbu was backed by all the power of Ferdinand am! Isa I holla, anil tin Spalr. was in tho zonith of its powor. We claim that Columbus' idea of land in tho far West was not an original one, aud that ho got it from tlio I I wish our people had hold it and pro empted a few corner lots hero in Brooklyn cheers, but they wero too busy just then in other i countries, but tnoy mime tne uiscoverv and nv corded tho doed.

Thoro woro no photograph llcnds in those days to tell us how tho Vikin looked, but hero is tho captain and crew of the i Viking ship. You see them as faithfully por trayed in "tho translation of the saga of i OiaiT, as faithfully rendered by tlio Treat American poet, I.oug.ollow. Stand up, crow of tho Viking." Amid tremendous cheers nnd cries of "Sknal," the marines jumped on thoir chairs, while Boymert rociiod tlio description of the crew of the Long rpout and it would well lit in with tho modernized crew of the Vikmg. When the eheors nnd hurrahs had died away both captain and mate replied. Th "a move was made to tho ballroom around which the gray shirted sailors wero borne in triumph.

Several girls woro pretty and piquant Norwegian costume of black skirt trimmed with scarlet and a searlot bodice over white embroidered long sleeved shirt waist. Then tho dancing commenced and was kept up with vigor until Greenwood's deep toned bell chimed o'clock. More "skaals" wero drank, more cheers wero given and tho adventurous captain and his crew departed for their little ship and the assemblage broke up. jus before Captain Andersen was presented with a beautiful lloral ship by the Norwegian Women's society of this city. The committeo had charge of the arrangements: Otto Amundson, Johan Engelsen, E.
