Tho bureau is, naturally enough, sometimes deceived by recommendations brought by those applying for situations; but Its reputation for honor and caution is to high that tho very name of the Union labor burean is, for those who bear its credentials, an open sesame to the confidence of thousands of manufacturers, merchants and householders iu all this metropolitan commsnity united by tho bridge.

Friends, in view of the year's record now closed, wo cemmend the union to your continued support, and hope for even creator favor than in tbo past During tho year 1801 the industrial training in tho union was, though limited in esttnt, so practical that It is likely to be profitable to tbo pupils in tho near future. ItB reading rocms were tho dependence at thousands, who enjoyed their privileges and wore lured from evil surroundings to them as safe retreats. Its library, although only about 12,000 of its .20, 000 books were in active use, attained a circulation for tho year of 128,708 volumes, and was availed of fer home reading by inmates of several thousand homes, warranting the estimato that from 15,000 to 20,000 persons hadlroady access to itB preoious treasures. The bnsiness of its labor bnreau has grown to enormous proportions, and it is recognized on every hand as a great power for good. Wo repeat the statement that in the last twelve months 3,763 eager applicants for employment found it through tho eftorta of this bureau; and many of those applicants were thus enabled to work out their own salvation from destitution and dospair.

Not infrequently 1,000 persons reflort, in a single day, to tho rooms of the uuteii. seeking some tho benefits it freely confers; and during the past year more than 200,000 buoIi visitors havo been received at 07 Sobermerhorn street. The treasurer's report assures you that the union curries over $800 less of indebtedness than that reportod one year ago. The receipts (beside tlio'Brewster logacy and the oity library appropriation) are $5,757.31, and the expeu ditnred, $0,473.84. A part tho espouses so summed up were, howover, for the library, as the city appropriation was insufficient for its maintenance.

Tho treasurer and board of directors, through its president, have now accounted to you for the use of tho funds, whioh yon sonorously committed to their trust, and, iu closing, wo respectfully submit whether it was possible for you to invest elsewhere, so as to stcure larger and more satisfactory results than those herein reported.

Georgo Turner, Dr. L. Malcom Bristow, Mr. morals of the Cavleton club. And, air, I never sent a man to that placo which you so nearly mentioned, although I may have sent them to ft sort of intermediate purRittory.

It's. a shamo to ak aii old man. aB Mayor Boody has intimated I am, to et on his feet, and such feet mine Lauehter.J Of oourso, if I waB a mayor I would consider it my bounden duty to speak on every possible oooasion. That is aa much one of his duties as anything can be. If I were a clercy man I would do as this gentleman has done, and mix among my poor and wioked lay follows, it were a doctor I would do anything to escape from nauseous pills and purgatives.

If lwRr an editor, Lord knows what I wouldn't do. And if I wore a railroad presidont though no such luck has over befallen upon me I would speak and aoeak and speak until the mayor dropped dad or signed my bill. (Tremendous laugh tor.) But, being a jndgo who finds good use for his voice every day, all that I will say will be to thank you for your hospitality. I ltko the Carleton club, because hero I find friends, goad friends. I like to meet you aud eat your dinners.

The only thing that I don't like to do is to talk to you auy longer. I promise that, if any of veil gentlemen evor come before mo in an orhctal capacity, I will aa gently with you as possible. Dr. Sohenck called upon Mr. Lewis to respond to a toast on the trolley.

Mr. Lewis aid Iu responding to tho toast to which the dootov has assigned me, I must deal with something mora importaut thau you suppose. Five yoars ago, at the ago of 'J7, 1 was called unexpectedly to the presidency of what was then tho greatest corporation of its kind in the wsrld. Iu taking hold of the work, I did it with the idea, the ambition to give to this largo aud growing city some method of transportation suited to its siza and its necessities. JI.v lirst year or two was devoted to strengthening and consolidating certain railroad interests with this end mainly in view.

That waB consummated. Thonl turuod my attention to tins subject. Sinco then I think that half of my working timo has bcon devoted to tho study of tho bcBt methods of surface passenger traftlo. I am rather sorry that this toast was not given to the mayor, for he might say something very interesting. I tried to talk to him dawnstairs and again at tho table, but it Iihb been of no use.

Ho doosn't mean to show his haud. Joking aside, this subject was given great care and attention by me and Illnally decided to recommend to my board of directors and to the officials of tho city the adoption of tho trolley: This, I am convinced, ia the best: method of propulsion for street cars yet invented. It ih tho only practicable electric system known. It is held by many that a cable road would be tho bttter. I can Bay that neither the Brooklyn city railroad company nor any other railro 'd company iu Brooklyn would adopt it.

Supooaiuir that we wore to place it on seventeen of our twenty seven lines, it would cost $1,500,000 for each line of six miles iu length. The interest on this would amount to $75,000 a year aud the total receipts ofeaohroad is only $75,000 a year. You see that the cable is not dobatable for an instant. It does not come into the discussion. It has been said that the trolley is dangerous to human life.

This is not so. No man can show whero sne human life lias ever been taken by the trolley wire. A horse can be killed by it. and a dog or any highly organized animal, excepting a man. It I did not know that this wns so I would never have asked for its adoption.

The mayor no doubt feels a groat responsibility iu dealing with this question, but it is not as great as my responsibility iu recommoiidiiig it. Not only am I responsible to my 750 stockholders who own the ilO, 000, 000 worth of property of tho company, not only am I responsible to my board of directors, but to the H00.000 residents of tho ciiy. I am rospcn iblo to my reputation and I would do nothing which would prevent me from living respected anil happy in the city which I love. My experience in my business has been gained in twenty tive y.iars. Whatever rei ntation I havo I have made in that business, and thero is no man who cares moro for his reputation, tuich an it is, than I inn.

Tiie matter has been carefully heard. Last spring the careful ami conservative state boia'd, after a hearing, gave Air. Richardson permission to run from South ferry to Greenwood. General Slo. tun was heard before a commission appointed by the supreme cotirt, which was oven to the public for sixty days.

They reported lavorably. The supreme court approved their report. Then Ihe four companies made their application. There was several hearings, and by a vote of 15 to the matter was i asseil. The Boston AdVff fiser wrote to sixty uine mayors of sixty nine, different ciiiss abaut the trolley and received sixty nine favorab'o answers.

Thero is no Question but that the trolley is perfectly adapted to Brooklyn. I gimi'sntee that if the Brooklyn city railroad company is giv. tho privilege theBys lem wiil be built as well as brains and money can do it. We went to tho railroad commissioners on Monday with consents for twenty four lines out of twenty soven. Theso lines through ninety miles of street.

General Slociim said the other day that he would rather have his name identified with this improvement than with the East rirsr bridg Xo man should judge this question hastily. I would like to have my name identified with this improvement. As vice president of the club I would like to call attention to one point. At the dinner last year we div.nk champaign, although forbidden us by our rules. This year we have taken binndy, also against the itles.

I think that ln fore wc have another such aft'ur all rules should be removed. Another point: The ortsent membership should work to increase the membership. We have done weli, but 1 think that we can do oven bettor if we try. B. T.

York, chairman of tho house committee, a few words v.pon the same question. He v.ai a member of many but iu none of them did he know of so little drinking as in the Carleton. If tanks were placed in every room and were filled with free wiuc iie was sure that the re ult would not be nt all different. Never was the o.iub so prosperous iu membership, in finance and good fellowship as at present. By ths end of this year tho membership should bo 250.

If A Brilliant Night at the aiding and Driving Club. The Jumping Contests Brought OnlV; Large Attendance of Society People. Mr. Woodward's Shrewsbury Carrietfi Off First Honors, but the Crack Jump. ers Were All There and Did Themselves and Their Riders Proud.

The Wednesday eveniugs at the riding and driving club have leaped into extreme popularity, and the big riding academy near the park circla was orowded laBt night iu every part with people well known in Brooklyn society. The specSr attraction waa the aeries of jumping contests an nounced some time Bince. Moat of the crack'? jumping horses of the club took part, and younij Woodward's Shrewsbury won silver anura for hfi rider and for himself cheers that mado the clul house ring for the gallant way in which ho too the five foot gate, with an inch or twotoaparo while several of hia competitors had strewed the tan bark with the rails they could not clear. Although the lumping waa tho chief feature of the evening and crowded the galleries and the walk abont the track, the ride to muaic which preceded the lumping for an hour was spirited and interesting. Girls who had danced night at the Iplietonga ball appeared fresh and smiling, aud showed that a rbiing habit and hat ia not a leas becoming robo for beauty than evening dress and a fan.

There were threo contests tu which prizes had i been offered. Iu the first class, ovar hurdles 3 feet ti, for women ri iers, there was but one entry. Miss Estello Kenyon appeared ou hor handsome 1 0 hands bay, Jack, and took tho hurdles so handsomely a ml easily that she elicited aen eral admiration. The prize which sho won was a handsome pair of lace pins. Iu the second class, a Jump over three hurdles, also 0 feet 0 with brushea, there were four con tesUuts W.

Husted The Fop. Tne contest batwean Bufna aud Boaebttd was close. Mr. Beard's horse won the more general admiration, but iu the contest for points Mr. Pirio's was slightly ahead and took the first prize, a haudsome whip.

Tho crop, which waa the second prize, went to Mr. Bard. Then caino tho high jumping, which proved tho most exciting event of the winter in the club. A gate was set up in the center of tho tan bark. Tho to? rail at first was four feet high, but it was raised three inches at a time until five feet was reached, the highest rail which has been set at the club, aud so near the limit of safety as to add excitement to tho match.

The bntrisa were: 11. Woodward's Shrewsbury, R. Beard's Twiukle, ('. II. liobbins' Bagdad, H.

Maxwell's Beau Brunitnel, 0. H. Simmons' Don and E. H. Barnes' Duke.

All tho horses cleared the bar at four feet before it was raised, and each rider hud threo trials at each height if his horse refused to take the gate or touched it in crossing. Tho 4 feet, 4 feet 3 and 4 feet 0 inch contests went along smoothly enough, though oecasisnally an obstinate animal would deoliuo to take the gate or a hoof would ring against fei upper rail. Iu the last, two bouts, however, tha work had bi come saiious, and occasionally a nervous horse would distinguish itself by scattering two or three rails over tho tan bark. Mot of the jumi'S wero Burpiisiugly good, aud there was not a horse which did not go over tha rail at five feet, though somo of thorn scratched. Popular favor soon settled down to Woodward and Bobbins among the riders.

Shrewesbury is said to have cleared a gate at sis fest, and was plainly tho best horse in the ring. But Bobbins is a rider experience, and he lifted hia horse over a bar in a skillful way that called out round after rund of No skill, however, cauld overcome tho atrength and case with trhieli Shrewsbury took the fiva foot bar, and the feat called out cheers and bravos as well as applause. Both tho horse aud his rider wero again cheered when the judges awarded to them the first prize, a pair of silver spurs. The second prize went to Mr. Barnea' Duke and ths third to Mr.

Abevo the altar are windows that would gladden tho heart of a connoisseur, whilo at tho top of tho arch is a tiny star of gas jots, arranged to shine through ths colorod glass and forming a pleasing sigiit.

Charming women in cay and costly apparel, with thoir escorts, filled tho church to overflow ing, and expectant was the gaze on evory face whon at 8:30, the hour sot for tho wedding, tho chimoB again rang out, playing "Dear, dear, what can the matter be?" This was hardly necessary, for the bride and bridegroom had arrived and wero in waiting. Then the low, mellifluous tones of the great organ burst forth, faintly at first, then louder and. louder, uutil the whole church re echoed with the notes of tho BwodiBh wedding march. Simultaneously the doors on cither siclo of the altar opened and the wedding attendants came forth and marched slowly down the center aiBlo to moot tho bridal party. Loading wero tho bridesmaids, tho Misses Mando Blisf, Dora Nichols of Brooklyn, Victoria Levott and Kitty Levett of New York.

Thoir drosses wore of pink faille, trimmed with chiffon, aud from Marie AuUiuotte hows of pink satin ribbons between the shoulders fell long streamers reaching to the floer. They carried bouquets of white pinks. Following them wora the ushers. Dr. Charles W.

Miss Viola Parker of New York, passed, followed by thy bride leaning on her father's arm, while the organ played tho "Lohengrin" wedding march. Next came tho bridesmaids, again followed in turn by the ushers. Tho bridal party were met at the altar by tho groom and his best man, Mr. Harry Totten of New York, and the Bev. James H.

Darlington, who performed th coromony, and the Roy. Samuel Harskins, who assisted. As the parly wore grouped about the altar they presented a picture seldom equaled. Tho brido's gown was of white brocaded satin, cut en traine and decollate, with large puff sleeves, and it was trimmed with point lacs and orange blossoms'. Her tulio vail was be coraiugly caught up with orauge blossoms.

The brido's ornaments woro diamonds, tho gift of the groom, and sho carried a bouquet of bride and hyacinths, tied with whito satin rib bons. The maid of honor waB gowned in Nilo green striped satin, trimmed with point lace, end she carried a whito prayer book in her hand. After tho benediction was pronounced tho organ again played the Mendelssohn wedding maroh, aud the happy couple started on their weihjed life. Next in tho procession came the maid of honor, then tho bridesmaids, and the ushers bringing up tho rear. Tho party woro quickly driven to tho residence of the bride's parents, where a large reception had been prepared, while the chimes played, "Now you're married you must obey." Congratulations wore in order until 11 o'olook, whon tho nowly weddod couple started on thoir trip to tho Sonth.

a Mrs. What the Union for Christian Work Did in 1891. A Brooklyn Institution Which Has Accomplished Much for the Poor President Foster's Satisfactory Report. Below is tho annual report of Preaidout Koborfc Foster of tho Union for Christian work made at tho recent meeting otbo socioty. His statemout regarding tho work' in the various departments was very satisfactory and his reference to Mayor Boody ai a Now En glander in discussing the advisability of establishing a genuine Yankee notion freo lbntling library was mot with heavy support.

Mr. Foster read as follows: To trie Members una Friends of Hie Union for Christian Work: As tho union now closes ths twenty fifth'yoar of its history, its board of directors greets you with gratitude not only, but quite as sicerely with congratulation also. The report now sub mitted reveals amplo ground for this congratulation, that intelligence and gonorosity havo prompted you to maintain from yonr to year a liumauo enterprise, which is so fundamental and far reaching in its usofulness as tho Union for Christian work. Tho union spent nearly throe yoars of its life in a aiuglo room at 44 Court street, itB only practical work being the maintenance thero 3f a freo reading room for men and boys, but the bc fiiuning of the fourth year fonnrt the society settled in more commodious quarters and bearing its present nuucotitrian name. Previously to this date monthly meetings had boon held at which religious and theological tonics were discussed.

Those, however, were abandoned without regret, and with the assumption of the new and nobier namo the union entered upon a earner of betieiiconce which has widened out more and moro until its helping hand has been stretched forth in every ward of this great city, and the actnalonntributors to its funds have increased iu number from ilfty to moro than five hundred. Methods of help The metheJs adopted by the union havo changed from time to timo with changing exigencies and demands. Iu the year 1877 there were in extensive operation five departments of work which have since then been discontinued. These were closed because other itifltitutiotis had undertaken similar work and witli quite as good results as the union could hope to achieve. The agencies through which it has during its twenty fifth year carried real oenetit and blessing to hundreds of households, and to a host of otherwise friendless individuals, have been limited to a labor bureau, a free lending library, two reading rooms and two classes in industrial training.

Industrial art A elas in drawing and designing is in charge of Superintendent William liutler, who devuies ono evening a week of his busy life to this most interesting and helpful work. No ono can vi. it Ihe art room now and then on Monday evening without being confronted with two perplexing problems: one to understand how s.o much real progress is made by fifty or more pupils who differ so much in ago, talent and advancement; the other, to determine which is the happier, the patient and painstaking teacher, or each ono of his attentive and grateful pupils. Mr. Dutlcr seeks moro and moro to shape his instruction, so that the scholars may turn the results of their training to profitable account, in the lifo vocation which they look forward.

But it may weil be added here, that the refining influence of art culture in the presenco of a sympathizing master is not the ieast of the benefits derived by the young men and lads who compose this large class. A class of seventy young persons ef both sexes has been in charge of Professor H. 0. Teale, who had, for four years, given his services as teacher of stenography, with no other compeni than the consciousness that he is helping laudably ambitions and deserving people to earn a respectable livelihood. Professor Teale has recently formed a class of beginners in stenography, so that the obligations of the board to this generous teacher will be still greater for tho year to come.

Beading' rooms It is with great satisfaction that we call attention to the two reading rooms, to which all decent people have ready access. Nearly one h.ilf of Library hall is used for the accommodation of those men, women and young people who wish to spend any leisure they may have in reading thero the books drawn from the library, or magazines and papers found on the tables. This part of the hall proves quite attractive to women and children especially, and iu onier to provide for the increasing number who wish' to read at the tables, and for more shelf room for now books, tho directors wiil soon bo obliged to connect the library by stairway with a room on the floor below. The oilier reading loom, which is exclusively for men and boys, is in the basement, and is reached through a passageway from tho slreef. Those who frequent tins room seem well pleased with its cheerful appearance, the comfort it affords in the matter of light and ventilation, thu generous equipment of books, magazines, daily and weekly panem, and tho means and opportunity provided for writing letter.

of business or friendship. This room is admirably supervised by a discreet and faithful curator, who i at all times master of the situation. In order that it may not be a hiding place for the evil minded, whose normal residence is behind tho bars, overyono who enters the room registers his name and address. Although law breakers and would be law breakers are tints excluded, or perhaps because of this exclusion, the attendance in the men's readingrnoui rapidly increases. The smallest number of visitors noted in any one day last year was fifty (this was on a certain stormy Sunday); tho largest number was 1)38.

Freo lending library Lot us consider next the phenomenal growth aud present satisfactory condition of the i'reo lending library. As stated before, the scone of the union's operation for the first three years was in a room (not large) in Court street, to hich, as the only place of tho kind iu the city, the public was freely invited to enioy the benefits of a reading room. By the close or tho third year, 500 volumes had beon collected for uso in this room. Ten years ago (the ten years wili have expired on Washington's birthday next month), the library of the union, with about 9,000 volumes on its shelves, was thrown open tor the use of every man, woman and child in this city, who could be vouched for by any respectable citizen as honest minded. Uu to that timo uo books had been drawn for home reading, and tho eagerness with which the people sought tho food thus provided showed plainly how groat was their'noeii.

The home circulation of the books varied considerably until after the union was settled in the now quarters in Sehermerhorn street. During tho year 1880, tho second after tho change to the new building, the circulation reached HO. the next year 108,517: and last year. 1801, 128,708. Notwithstanding this largo circulation, extending to every part of the city, the business of the library has been conducted with such fidelity, skill and prudence by the librarian, Miss Hull, the assistant librarian.

Miss Meyers, and tho other assistants, that the probable loss of books for tho year i oniy live, the pay for two others, yet missing, hayini: been prmised. This seems a marvelous record, when it is considered that we havo not yet adopted the policy of other libraries, to require of evory applicant for the pledgo of an acceptable guarantor lhat the loss of any book shall be made good. In other words, wo have trusted tho peoplo, and thoy havo not betrayed the trust. During this last year large addirions of books were made, and at the close, the library coinifrised 20,000 volumes. Of thcia about 1,000 only were in active circulation, so that every one of them rawst have been drawn, on an average, ten times.

Each of Die last three years has witnessed a considerable increase in tho size of the library, and a cor respmdiag increase in the circulation. And how eloquently do these facts plead for more money and moro books? Chairman oyrus 15. Davenport of tho library cm raittec, who by his intelligent and tireless devotion to the interests of the library has rendered a service to the community which cannot be too highly appreciated, is confident that we can make room in our own building, as at present shared with our neighbors, for 100,000 volumes. Therefore, if the library of the union should receive at tho present time a gift of 5300,000. $100,000 thereof could be used to purchase 80,.

000 volumes, which would make a total of 100, 000. The SaJOO.OOO romuinmg would constitute an endowment fund, the revenue from which would be almost sufficient to meet the running expenses of the enlarged library. And as, within a single year, the required circulation of 175, 000 would doubtless be attained, a valid oli lm on tho city for a $10,000 annual anDroonation would thus be constituted. This appropriation could bo devoted in large part to the purchase of new books. With all proper modesty, we add here, that it does seem to ua no other more prudent or promising plan can be devised to provide Brooklyn with a substantial foundation, at least, of that which is tha desire of all hearts, so long deHyed, an adequate freo lending library.

The gift to tho city of tbo Brooklyn library, with its building and its 100,000 books, is of course the "consummation most devoutly to be for the people could then, without delay, avail themselves of tho boon auri blessing; but tha years go by, aud to all appear anoe, the of such CTeut is as distant as evor. Is it chemerical, then, to turn public attention to the marvellous progress in ten years of tho library iu Schermerhorn street? There is its commodious building, with tho respectable nucleus "0,000 valuablo books, and a record of usefulness, which has warranted the city government iu making a yearly apuropriation toward its support. Several years must elapso before any other plan for a large free library could or would materialize. Does not then the exigency of the situation naturally suggest this scheme? Whatever estimate may bo put on tho proposition of Carlyle that a groat library is tho university of the poople. none will gainsay tha: a free lending library is the source of immedhua and vast benefit to any community mainly dependent on it tor information and intellectual training.

Who, then, can oxplain why Brooklyn continues in this respect to lag a generation behind lloston, and allow the New England residents of San Francisco to distance it by at least a decade. In the year 1881, tail ago, Han Francisco, with its Mercantile subscription library ih nourishing condition, rejoiced in a free library whose yoarly circulation of books for home reading was upward of two hundred thousand. Tho Jersey City library, an infant of on: a fow years, and with less than twenty thousand volumes on its shelves, announces iu its latest report an tssito of 107,038 books in six months. And hcru in Brooklyn, tho Greonpoint branoh of tho noble Plait library to which 2,000 books only had beon consigned, reports a circulation during its first year.of 20,000, an average of thirteen persons for tho reading of each book. What dots this indieato on the part of the peoplo, if not a great avidity for good reading, whioh has been hitherto almost utterly ignored? Now KnglandeiB in Brooklyn I Yon have a true New Englander in tho mayor's chair, and he callH upou you to aid him in establishing here that genuine Yankco notion, which iu tho mightiest of all modern levers of civilization, a free public library.

If you will sustain him in this he will thereby render hiu administra. tion tho most memorable in the history of tho city. Tho labor bureau, which we name last in order, is by many cousidorod first in importance. This bureau, as at present conducted, has heon for olevon yoars successfully managed by Superintendent llutler. Por some years previous to that diiferent labor tcstB, wood sawing and splitting, shoe making and mending, fur catting, were operated with most gratifying results.

The most important ef these were continued by the. union until, as wo have stated, tho conduct of such enterprises was assumed by other institutions. For the past nino years tlio labor bureau has done one thing only. It ban found situations or the unemployed. How successful it has been appsais from the records of the office, which show that during Mr.

Butler's first year as manager situarioiiH werosecurcd or job work provided for HI', persons, and that tho business of tho office bus increased every year, excepting when cmmorcial dopreHsion limited it i opportunity, And now the amazing statement is before us that duting tho year 1H91 Superintendent Butler UaH fiirniBhed employment moro or less per piivnent in 3,703 needy casos. In many instanoes tho roelpients of this freeman's right, not boggar's boon, to work, wcro friendless though worthy, and to oil human seeming eould not have secured employment elsewhere. Mr, Butler fully belioreB that anyone whose name Is on our long list of contributors, could ho hear the pathetic, even tragio, story often confided to him as superintendent, would congratnlat himself that hs had helped to maintain so wise a charity. But no ono will ever Ituosv the dotatls of ono suoh story, ah they remain secret in the sale keeping of toe superintendent. Ths direct On Methods of Conducting Missionary Work.

Annual Convention of Delegates From Eoformed Churches of the North Classls of Long Island in the Kent Street Charon Papers and Addresses by Mrs. Margaret E. Saugster and Others. Women from many churches and charitable and missionary organizations occupied platform and pews yeaterday aftoruoon in the Kant Btreet Beformod chnrob, and diaenased miasienary topics through tho day and through the evening, their chief object being to got at the beat method in which Christian women could do their nharo in the work of converting the heathen. A fow men woro there, but only by or.

Tho occftBion was the fifth annual woman's missionary conference, convened by the committee of tho north clasais of Long Island. Mra.

Rapelyea presided, Mrs. Harris was secretary and treasnrer, and most of tho churcheaof the classia were well represented. The hymn, "Jesua ahail reign, where o'er tho snu," wa8 sung, after which the llov. Lewis Frances, as pastor of the Kent Btraet church, effered prayer and delivered a brief address of welcome. Mrs.

Ha r'rs, aa secrotary and treasuror, first proseutod her own report and then read the list of delegates, who, aa their namea woro called, presented interesting reports on the foreign and domestic work accomplished in their own churohoa, other organizntious.and the amount of money contributed for the work. Then another missionary hymn, "The Morning Light is Breaking," waa sung. Mrs. Margaret E. Sang ator, the well known hymn writer, had been invited to represent the First Beformod church, ou Bedford avenue, and to deliver the principal address of tho afternoon.

She waa nnablo to attend the conference, but sho sent a pauor and it was read Mica Jennie itoborta. It tvaa en titled, "Missionary literature: bow to make it interesting; how to promote it circulatien." It ia as follows: In tho fow moments assigned for tho opening of a diactission oiva subject so vital and bo largo ij inn uo puKKiuiu io louuu oniy a iew poiiuu. nac ao we mean by the phrase missionary literature' do wp limit it to current publica tions auout missions, periodicals, weekly or monthly, which furnish tho reader with the freshest intelligence from tho freed, which is the wormy i.n uiese puperB and magazines thero are reports of work begun and carried ionvard of preaching tours, of ciuiet teaching iu village scnooia and larger summaries, of talks in zeua nas to tittle audiences of eager women, oi hos pital work, so like that of the Master Himself as ailing bodieu aro healed and suffering alleviated snort, records ot the most unobtrusive, unselfish and earnest currying of the gospel to tno etuis or tjio earth.

But we do not thus limit our subject.

By hair breadth escapes, by consecrated self sacrifice, by exciting and dramatic situations and results accomplished, these last volumes tho two good aizo.l books wlimh tel! us of Dr. 1'atoti and the islands of tho sea conquered for Christ surpass any novel of the decade. Again, in missionary literature wa receive tue thoughtful argiiinnnta of Dr. Pteivoti clinched by an array of convincing st tisties tho various books of travel, such as Dr. Gtitiia 'Mikado's Empire," Miss Gnrdoii Cummings "At Home in Fife, Dr.

Tin brief gmnce must convince any dispassionate person that tiieru is no luck of interest in tho literature ol missions. But, alas I it has to con tend net so much with tho antagonism of its foes aa Witu too indilteronca ot Us friends. Nothing is so hard to fight as inertia.

The choir of th3 church had all of its mombors assomVled in the organ loft and they led iu tho singing. An interesting address on homo raiaaion work was delivered by Mra.

E. B. Morton. It had beon expoctoil that the Ilav. J.

W. Conkliu of India would also deliver an ad clresB, but Mr. OonKlin found it impossible to attend. Ilia piaos was taken by tho Rov. H.

V. S. Peck of the Union theological aetniuary, who, although quite a young mm, ha3 spont four years iu the miasionary fields of Japau. Mr. Peck's detailed description of missionary work in Japan proved one of the most interesting foaturee of the conference.

Ho was intensely in earnest, but his seriousness was at, timea rolieved by what soemod to be almost inadvertent humor, aa, for an example, when he reforrod to the hard lot of a long settled Christian misaiouary who had married a native, and who found his gospel work seriously obstructed by not only a heathen wife, but by a heathen mother in law as well. Ab a rule, howover, ho sai, tho European and Ameri can miasionarios, although in a torcigu laud and called upon for utiromitting labor and many self sacrifices, were encouraged by the feeling that tho great Christian church throughout tho world was at their back. Far different was tho lot of native missionaries. They had, lo preach the word, surrendered fam ily and soeia! ties; their nearest friends regarded them coldly, as lucking in patriotism; they ouly saw a few Christian workers from other la nils aud consequently had no adequate conception of the vast body of Christian sympathizars across tho seas, and so their condition was ono of groat loneliness and almost mirtyrdom. Thoy had provou themsolvs in Japan an hgroic advance guard of tho army of tho church of God, and thoy woro entitled to tho sympathy, the prayo ra and tho support of God's people throughout tho world.

The work of women misaiauariea in Japan was also briefly described, and tho speaker said that with so many ageucios at work Christian infliiencoa wero beginning to bo felt in unlooked for ways, although, of couras, tho groat body ef the people remaiusd unconverted. Far back in the mountains and also in city streets ho had seen native bnya who in some wny had picked up the Lord's prayer in their own language and conla recite it. Others had secured tranalationaof tho Now Testament. Ono native waa aoen reading from a mutilated cpy of the Testament in his own language "It is ouly half of tho Testament." said Mr. Peck to tho native; "where is tho other "I gave it to a friend," waa the reply.

"Ho was unable to got another oue.and as I did not want to lose all of mino I did tlio beat I could for him by tearing my book in half." Tho speaker mado a strong appeal for increased support of foreign miasioua. Now, be tho gospel banner in evory land un waa sung and votoa of thanka woro paaaed for tho spoeohca and the collation, and to tho pastor, officers and teachers of the Kent stvoot ohuroh Bud Sunday aohool.

For yoars the Carleton tvas the only club which wan located upon Prospect hill.

It enjoys that exclu siveness no louder, yet, as was shown by one spaker, it lias never before been no strong as it is to day, either numerically or linauciaUy. Com patition has merely nroven that the park bIodo has developed so thoroughly that thero is now room for two clubs. In one sense the dinner may be called a trolley dinner, for that topic was on everybody's lips and was the butt of innumerable jests. Daniel F. Lewis, president of the Brooklyn oily railread company, is vice president of the club.

Near him sat Mayor Boody, and tbis juxtaposition struck everyone, All the speakers referred to the trolley at more or less length, including Mayor Boody. He. however, evidently did not propose to lot anyone cot a dance at his hand. Mr. Lewis' remarks, in fact, wera almost entirely devoted to the improvement upon which lie lias set his heart strongly.

I will not have to ipe.ik for law, for Judte Aloore is hero; nor for throloy, for Dr. Farrar is present; not for the events of the day, for Mr. Bryant ij here; and there is only one other subject seems to interest the city of Ctooklyu' just now, ami Lewis is here to iaik about that. LatiL'hier au applause.

There ifl litlie or nothing then, for me ro disuiifs, except to i ay a few words aliont our city and our part of the city. Your president was quite rih; in saying that 1 treated IIit city too conscientiously hn 1 lirsl commenced. That is 'true. I paid as much attention to the eastern district as to the waid. This who a great waste of material, I found, and I l.ave now decided to take the city ny by sections.

That, will five mo tweDty six tinien. Then I will take up the county toirus, which by that time may b'j parts of the City. Alter that we may annex New York and the olhvr cities, counties and about us, all of which w.il muke additional subjects. To upeak of this ward and this particular institution, you alt know that we hav existed as a club foi twelve ars, and I have be. ihinkinu how great are toe chmies that have occurred iu that time.

Tweive ugu the poiuilatinii of tho city was but 500,000. Since then we have gained not less which is a lrer number people than iivc ih auyonu city lie country after Ualtimoie, which is the seventh city in the country. Nw, to come to improvements, es peeiidly in ti.e "wenty ecornl ward. Nine years uo I remeuiber the Memorial Presbyterian church was built. Thosu connected with the church had hard time nod a hard ii lit to persuade others to remove from a little chapel near Fifth avenue.

Seventh avenue wae thought to be too far away from anywhere. Since then churches and club have sprunt; up. Nino years aim I built my houe on Berkeley place. That was tho only house on the south side of the street, exception Air. Ke.nyon's, which had been there for many years.

There tvete at that time no hcusefl on Union Ureet and only one liou.e on Eichth avenue, General Ohriflteusen's. These improvements are only the precursors of others still larger. You know that soon the Brooklyn insliiute of arts aud sciences will be built lie here to be followed roou, I hope, by a free library. These east side laii'ishave been unoccupied so lone; ami these institutions may prove that thi ha been tome cood. Perhaps, not far from now they v.ill he iu the very center of the city.

I do not doubt but that some of us shall live to see this city larger than Sew York is to day, when the country shall number mre 100,000,000. It is well for us to think of what has pasMid and what the future may pos. xss. It is well to hope for improvements and for adornments al.o aud to hot.e thut beside museums and libraries tho city will possess tallerie. and hails of art.

Is it not a worthy ambition to dream that in the future the city will be the home and thu educuor of those skilled with brush and chisel and aide to make the canvas live and the marble pulsate? These are great aim ends that demand earnest work fiom every loyal citizui of thu city Abont the life of a city there are, it cannot be denied, treat attractions and fascinations.

THE SEW MU8SU.11 OF FINE ARTS. Professor KBsitnlin ot Calnmbia Cnlleee Tells ISow It Should Bo Itiiilt.

Professor A. D. F. Hamlin of Columbia college lectured before the Brooklyn institute in Association halt last night, on "Tho Great Museums of Europe." The address waB copiously illustrated by means of the stereoptieon. Begiuuiug with the history of tho museums, the speaker said: When and why were the first museums established? If we except collections of books which havo exjsted siuce the days of ancient EgyDt and Chalcltoa, and engraved gema which in the middle ages were highly valued, tho answer to this question carries us down to tho early dawn of tho fienaisijanca in Italy whoii archieologicai studioii in the.

modern souse first had their birth. In tho awakening of that interest in classical antiquity to which nrchiuolRfiK owos its existence, the names of Dautu aud Pntrareh stand pre eminent. But it was Cola di Kienssi, the "last of the Tribune's" who first of all collected and intelligently studied tho antiquitios of classic Home, For tho following century we find tho love of tho antique, as an object of scientific and artistic study, pervading. Paul II, who beoamo pope in ldi was the first of a long series of art loving papal collectors, gathering coins, gems and antiquities with eager enthusiasm, a rival of tho Florentine patrons of the arts. But Florence had already been for a century tho home and storehouse for such precious accumulations and tho palaces of hor great nobles wore iu them selres museums of ancient statues, busts aud reliefs, coins and cents, bronzes aud inscriptions which adorned their halls, staircases, arcades, courts and gardens.

Thus the earliest museums were the niivate palaces of popes, princes and nobles. Museums of natural science are almost entirely the creations of our own century. To Curvier, Buffo and Liuiioms we owe. in large measure the idea of scientific classification which is tho foundation of all scientific Geology, chemisftTi ethnology and biology are distictively nineteenth dtntuvj studies. Previous to the latter partsf the eighteenth century museums were devoted wholly to the following classes of objects: Works of sculpture and painting; engraved gems, coins anil medals: armor and arms; the minor productions of ancient art, such us cant'telobra, furniture and implements and, finally, books and manuscripts.

The idea of tiio popular museum had yet to bo evolved. The British museum, founded in 1753 and greatly enriched from 1801 to 1823 hv tho munificence of George III aud George IV, was one of the first of public, as distinguished from royal or state, and that at Kensington is tho most variod ami extensive example of its class. But this vast and wonderful establishment is itself excelled in the magnificence of its building and in its costs of sculpture of the great museum at Berlin. Iu tho number, variety and wealth of its combined collodions, however, the city of Paris stands first with its thirteen galleries and museums, culminating in that glorious temple of the arts, the Louvre. Our own country, tar.

iy i its realization of the true function and value of such insti tutioiis and depending almost, wholly on private and corporate enterprise for their establishment, is fast atoning fur its deficienc 9 In its various univorsitins havo long existed scientific collections of recognized value; and of lata years tho fine arts havo received their duo recognition iu such worthy establishments as tho Corcoran gallery at Wasiiingfoti. ihe fine arts museum at Boston, tho magnificent Metropolitan at Now York, in Htualhr collections as at Milwaukee, Detroit, Norwich, and elsewhere, and now finally on the splendid enterprise for which this institute and this en eat muuicioalitv have so happily joined hands. Tho speaker then oausidored at length aud technically tho various musouras of Europe, touching briefly upon tho collections which thoy contain and showing pieturei, not ouly of tho exteriors of the bnildingB, but also of their interiors, their courts, lulls and corridors. In many instances ground were thrown upon tho screen and carefully explained. In closing Professor Hamlin said: Now of tho ideal museum, what Rhonhl bo its basal system of arrangement and development What itB architectural character? Allawanco should be made for expansion by extension of buildings and by transfer of natural science department.

Therefore the part devoted to natural science should lie so arranged as to be later available for art collections. For this purpose is required courts, at least as wide as streets, halls for largo groups, corridors for communications and engravings, busts, coins; rooms for spscial collections or groups not requiring halis. As far as oasstble tho plan should tie to have main divisions of buddings correspond to main divisions of collections. Thus: First story, Bculpturc; natural history aud gealo. gy, second; paintings, third.

All room partitions should bo very light, of hollow brick work, so as to bo easily removed. On the top floor should bo skylights, but there should also bo frequent smaller rooms with side light for engravings and models. In regard to tho character of the building, a number of points should be observed. It should be fire nroof, with imposing entrance and vestibule, a flno staircaso conspicuously visible on entering. Tho details, halls, openings, should besimpio but imposing.

IiCt the structure express the museum character and bo built for 1,000 year Dcn't havo it gotbic or llomanesque, ana don't depend too much on now and original styles. Build of marbla if you can. If not, Indiana limestone or long, narrow, buff or mottled brick and the finest de tail of terra ootta. Those materials can be used to produce mnssive aud imposiug effects. Build well, simply, Boiidly.

So doing you will do well, and Eet an example for tho whole nation and for ages to come." THE iNEWTOW.V ItiiFOKHED CHURCH. Something About tlio Nuw Factor Who Fates Ctiarg'e standby. Bev. Howard W.

HenBhasv. so, no club in the city would be able to offer bet ter opportunities to the citizens of Brooklyn. Mr York referred to the congratulatory dinners already given Mr. Boody. Ho itilimaled that I wo more dinners might still bs given him one on his re election and another on his election to the governorship.

This was receiveil with tremendous cheers. ITo spoke kind words of Judge Moore, Mr. Lewis and Mr. Shipman. In a little three minutes' talk Judge Clement said that a friend of his called the trolley the "tolrr.v" ystem.

He thought that if Mr. Lewis saiil that ihe trolley was the best syutt for tho city that it wtuhl prove to be so. At first he had bten against tho plan but the mere fact that a man ot Mr. Lewis' standing auvocated it was sufficient, be thought, to havo its trial permitted. Thetnas E.

1). M. Cowperthwait, the furnitnro man, had an experience with a crank yeaterday which reminded his clerks of the Itussell Sage affair and frightened some them badly. The stranger rushed into the New York store aud up to Air. Cnwperthwait's desk waving hir, arms and making signs that ho was deaf and dumb.

Tho crankiness of tho visitor was apparent and a group of clerks gathered around nervously while Air. Cowperthwait 1 wrote: "What do you and handed it. over the cashier's desk. The. group scattered, however, when tho crank pulled a heavily wrapped package from his pocket aud began to unroll it.

It proved not to be dyi amite but the tablet. on which deaf mutes write. The crank's first volley on hia tablet was 'his: "I oh. writs Greek, Latin. Hebrew, iich, HnLdii li a.

od other tongues. I am one of the philosophers. I do two times tho work for and liberty that yon do. I am a physiognomist and can read your brow and heart. I can write seven languages, but cannot speak." The genuineness of the.

visitor's delusion was proved by his refusal to takea handful of change which Mr. Cowperthwait offered him, and a policeman hail to bo called finally to get htm out of the store. CnCttCK B.UUt. A meeting of ihe man and woman who will take part in the bazar to be held in the Church of the Transfiguration, Hooper street and Alarcy avenue, was held last night in tho residence of the pastor, the Key.
