to hear the annual memorial sermon preached by Rev. C. T. Aikensin honor of the buried soldiers. The sermon was a very able production throughout, show- ing by historical statistics that the cus- tom was one of ancient date. Miss Linie Krebs presided at the organ, the choir for this special occasion was large and strong, the music appropriate and well rendered. Decoration day has again come and gone, and not withstanding the drenching rain that at. times fell in torrents crowds of anxious people gathered at various cemeteries at the appointed time to as- sist in scattering flowers over the mounds of the honored dead. Fairbrook cemetery was decorated by detail at 10 o'clock a. m. Pine Grove Cemetery at 2:30 p. m, On account of the inclement weather the ritulistic work was dispensed with, an unusual supply of flowers were furnished by the committee of which Mr. M. E. Heberling was chairman. The strewing of the flowers was performed by the Sunday School scholars. W. J. Mey- ersas chairman of the music committee and organist Mary Ward furnished excel- lent music. Rev. C. T. Aikens pronounc- ed the benediction when ranks were speedily broken and there wasa general scattering to drier quarters. The hour for Pine Hall was6 o'clock and a good crowd witnessed the appro- priate services. With the College and Pine Hall bands in attendance, there was no lack of music, the rendition of the Patri- otic Songs of America titled ‘ They Rest Under the Shade of the Trees, was excel- lent and commented upon by every one. The College band played the Decora. tion dirge after which comrade Cal. Sowers of No. 347 G. A. R. Coalport, Pa. was introduced to the audience which he held spellbound for three quarters of an hour and from the tenor of his speech he was not a corn- stalk soldier and knew of what he talked by experience, from Antitiam to Appo- mottax. The College band boys carried with them baskets of flowers with which they so fittingly dedecked Comrade Ful- ton’s grave. They each carried a letter of his name and as they encircled the grave they placed it in position over a bank of flowers. Rev. Aikens made a few remarks by way of returning thanks to all who gave a helpihg hand to make Memorial day of 1894 a success at Pine Hall. Books, Magazines Etec.

THE ART INTERCHANGE, 152 W. 23rd, St. In The Forum for June, Mr. Morton the Secretary of Agriculture, writes on “Farmers, Fallacies and Furrows,” to show that the agri. cultural unrest is caused less by the agricul- tural distress than by political and economic fallacies by which a certain noisy proportion of farmers have been led away from their furrows. As a class, the tillers of the soil are yet the most independent and the most thrifty. Mr. E. L. Godkin asks “Who will Pay the Bills of Socialism ?” and points ont that all the socialistic leaders of every grade and kind who are promising us a far better state of so- ciety, fail to tell where the money will come from to pay the bills. This points, he eon- tends, to the central fallacy of all socialism The movement in favor of Woman Suffrage is treated pro and con. Mr. Matthew Hale, the celebrated lawyer of Albany, presents argu- ments to show that giving the ballot to women is unnecessary and contains many possible dangers—chief of all, the danger of the ve- nality of certain large classes of women. On the other hand, Miss Mary A. Greene, herself a distinguished legal séholar, reviews the several stages of the movementand the several kinds of experiments, and makes an interesting summary of the present status of the agitation—with a strong leaning in favor of it. The May Forum contained an argu- ment in favor of the taxation of church prop- erty, particularly the property of the Catholic church. In the June number, the Right Rev- erend J. M. Farley, Vicar-General of the Catho: lic diocese of New York, presents arguments to show why church property should be ex empt from taxation. Along with this is an ar ticle by Mr. E.;M. Winston of the Chicago bar on “The Threatening Conflict with Roman- ism,” Col. Carroll D, Wright, Superintendent of the Census, expiaits the result of the sta- tistics of Sex, Marriage and Divorce, showing, among other surprising things, that the mar- ried are a larger proportion of the population in the New Engiand States, which include the most thickly settled parts of the country, than in the Southern and Western States, Dr: E. R. L. Gould, who had charge of the re_ lief-work in Baltimore last winter, explaing how tramps were banished from that city and the unemployed were helped without the ex- penditure of any considerable sum of money —almost, in fact, on & self-sustaining basis. Dr. Frederick A. Cook, who was a member of the Peary Expedition, writes on “The Antarc- tic's Challenge to the Explorer,” setting forth what he hopes to accomplish by an expedi- tion toward the South Pole. Thus, The Forum anol over its usual wide range of topics— th2 condition of the farmers, a criticism of g)cialism, the woman-sufirage movement, two aspects of the Roman Catholic question, higher education, a discussion of finance, mis- sionary work, the conjugal conditions of our New York. population, the solutign of the tramp problem. and an expedition to the least known quarter of the world.
