Hastings, la Whose Hener .the Hunt Is Given, Attends end Rtdea With Cluba-Feataroser the Chase. The big fox hunt which wu given at the Black Hen het!, Dataware county, in honor of Ueneral D. H. Hastings, en Thursday, was a great aucceaa In every way. The general has a great many friend down in that section of the stale, and sonie time age they roeelved te give him a recep tion. The lilnck Ilerse is an anelent hos telry, and Is situated en the old llaltlmore read. It has been a hotel for en ehun- tlred and fifty years. The present proprie tor, who has Iteen tbere for a considerable time, is Cel. Edward Lyen, a big-hearted man with an extended acquaintance. The hotel Is about a mile from Elwyn station en the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Haiti Haiti mere railroad. The weather wasverydlmgreenbleln the morning and it did net leek as though there would be much sport for a time. This kept many people, especially Phlla delphlaus, away, but the crowd was very large and it must have been very pleasing te the candidate for governor. At eight o'clock In the morning Goneral Hastings, mounted en a large black horse, left Media and rode te the place of the hunt. He was attended by a large number of riders. When he reached the Mack Herse a large number erhunters -and ethers had already assembled and the crowd continued te In crease for several hours. People came from all directions en horseback, In con veyances of every kind and even en feet and the number in attendance is estimated as high as five thousand. Among these present were a great many prominent men of, that section of the state. Although the majority wcre Republicans tliere were also many Democrats who had turned out te honor General Hastings. There wero some of the most notable publie men of the state en hand. Among the hunters were representatives of the Rese Tree, Radner, West Chester, 1,1 ma, Chichester, Thorn Thern burg, and ether clubs. Among theso pres ent from Lancaster wero Charles W. Eckcrt, Jehn C. Hnger, Jr. and H. H, Henscl, of the Tntkllieenckr. They went up from Philadelphia with Senater Jehn C. Grady, Health Olllccr Jeseph C. Pattersen, Mercantile, Appraiser James C. Dell, Themas C. Rosier, James A. Garvin, of the tax recclver's eftlce, Rebert A. Now New hard, A. T. Owen and ethors. Mrs. H. Frank Rshletnan drove te the chnse from Media with Mrs. Hastings, but her hus band was detained at court There were many beautiful horses te be seen en the grounds, and among these that wero in the chase, wis the famous old Parelo, who, when owned by Lorillard, wen se many races. He leeks well yet and Is owned by S. Hurlan Prlce, a very wealthy young man. Early In the day a Jumping contest, In whtch many horses took part, came off, and it was during that that the only accident occurred. David A. Vernen was riding a horse of Pusey Nichelson and attempted te makohlmjutnpafenro. The animal fell, breaking his neek, and of course, dying In stantly. A collection was taken up and a large sum of money te buy a new horse for the man was raised. Philip Walsh's herse "Neptune" wen the jumping contest. After the hunting u luncheon was served in an outbuilding by Cel. Lyens, as the hotel was se packed with people that it was impossible te get inside. The breakfast was served In u temporary building ad joining the hotel. It .consisted of roast beef, potato salad, pies of all kinds, and smoking het eoU'ee. There was enough for every body jielitlclans, 'fox hunters and all and theso who could net get in the building for the crowd wero banded feed through the windows. At 10 o'clock the fox wasdroped almost immediately hi front of -the hotel, where the crowd was se large that Reynard was compelled te run betwoen two Belld rows of men. There is no belter place te see n fox hunt in the statetlun there, en account of its elevation, and the peeple had an J excellent view or tlie little animal as he wound around en the high hills and through the valleys. The dogs were liberaled In twenty minute and there were ever one hundred in the pack. They seen took the trail and presented a beautiful sight. They ran the fox around the coun try for a time and killed him near the rail road. "Dude," a little white hound belong ing te the Lima Hunt club, seized him, and in a second two mero of the dogs wero en him. Alfred Barrett, a coleied hunts man from Newtown, jumped from his horse and took the fox from the hounds and handed him te Marshall Allemus, who was the next in at the "death." The ethers who saw the termination of Reynard's career were Matthew Garrett, Themas 11. llaley and James Playford. General Hastings could easily have leen present, but drew away just as the fox was captured. It was only thirty minutes alter the stait when the huntsmen started te return te their rendezvous at the Ulack Herse. The c'lase had been tee swift and short, and only served te whet the appotites of the siiortg siiertg men. The hunters all wanted another fox, but en account of the soft condition of the grounds It was deemed advisable net te let it go. In the chase there wero bo be tween two and three hundred hunters, among them being miny who belonged te different clubs and wero brilliant coats. They looked very well and at tlmes the horsemen resembled a reglment of cavalry. By one o'clock the clmse was ever, but the crowd, or a great portion of It, remained about the hotel, whero many took dinner, until a late hour in the afternoon. Alto gether it was oue of the greatest days of sport th it Delawure county has ever seen. After the chase Sonater Grady took the party of friends, who attended the chase with hiui.te his beautiful country residence, three miles from the Mack llorse.whero he entertained them handsoiuely. The Lan caster poeple.who attended the chase.speak in the highest terms of the kindness of Sonater Grady and his friends te them. They did everything In thelr power te show ttieui an excellent time, giving them every attention at all times and making thorn feel at home from the start. The senator is just as popular in Delaware county as In Philadelphia and from the ay that he grasped the different hands he seemed te knew everybody in the uoigh ueigh uoigh keod. After the hunt two cranky agents of the Women's Branch of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty te Aniuuls, who had witnessed the sport, had Jessie Heck man and J. Green, two empleyes of the flub, arrested, charging them V ith cruelty in releasing the fox and slipping the hound!1. Tlie ofllcleus agents get te the chase by preteudlng te be reporter.

And In loving memory of Jehn WlUJamsea Nevln, D. D. LL. D., Jane 6, 1866. w " In the beginning was the Werd, and the Werd was with Ged, and the Werd was Ged. " This Is the inscription ou the beautiful window which has lately been placed la the chapel or Franklin and Marshall college by the Immediate family of Dr. Nevln. Brief mention was made of It, at the time of its erection, but I have thought a mere extended notice might Interest the readers or the Jucsienger. Fer that " loving mem ory " Is the treasured inheritance of the whole Reformed church. The window is Gothic In form. Around the extreme edge runs a vine of three pointed leaves In shades of dark green, with brilliant crimson berries. In the centre of the arch en a sunny golden brown background and surreuuded by arabesques In deep green, stands the open book, at the upper corners of whtch con ventional roses,of an intense crimson, seem te burn and glow with a strong and bril liant light. Just below the book a line of purest violet cuts across, fair, refined, ten- der, yet thrilling llke a high soprano note in a perfect chord, doeponlng In feeling and sentiment what Is below. Under this is a mass of foliage in rich greens, shading sometimes Inte touches of brown, and rollevod beneath by a pale'blue sky with clouds of a darker blue. Against this background stands the flgure of the youthful St. Jehn, full of dignity, vigor and sweetness. Tlie body Inclines some what toward the right, but the head is slightly turned and the face leeks toward the left. A radiant nimbus surrounds the head. The hair Is auburn, the eyes dark and piercing. The left arm hangs by the side, In the hand is a book, olesod and clasped. The right arm Is slightly 'ex tended and the hand holds forth the chalice or cup. The under robe Is green, the outer crimson, falling ever It in loose, beauti fully medeled folds. The attendent eagle en the right slde is partially hidden by the folds of the gown. The feet are uusandatled. The ground below is brown, and where the plcture ends a slender line is drawn across of levely rosy pink In color, like the early glow of morning clouds, Just before the sun rises. Under this the golden brown background Is repeated. A richly colored Greek cress Is In the centre, and looped belew it a conventional garland of many vines, very effect! ve and graceful in form. Yet below this Is the psnel with the Inscription just montlenod. These simple details may give some Idea of the chaste and handsome Window, but It must be seen In order te properly appre ciate Its unusual beauty. Ge te the chapel about four o'clock In the afternoon, (for the artist has painted the plcture with the light coming from the west) then, as some ene remarked, "Us harmonious coloring touches you llke a lovely symphony In music" The figure stands out lu bold relief and leeks as though advancing te meet you. The light from above, belew and around, seems te gather up and conrcntrate at ene point, there te glow In glorious golden light In the cup, as though the artist meant te typify that here the earthly Is lifted up and transformed Inte the heavenly. True art ts always ennobling, and the value of this particular work In an educa tional way cannot be overestimated. Placed where It Is, It must Indelibly affect the young hearts and minds of theso who dally gither In the chapel. Just te the right of the pulpit, near the chancel railing, stands Dr. Nevln's vacant dial r, and above It en the wall yet haugu the wreath of wlthered Immertelles, placed, there the day of his funeral. Frem these sad reminders of his de parture from us, we glance upward te the beautiful window, shining In the mellow light of the evening, and in thought " Pal tli wings the soul beyond the sky.

The Mayoralty contest waxed warm all day, and when the polls opened at 4 o'clock this afternoon each of the candi date had their friends at the voting places. Davis' chaneea seem te have Improved the put twenty-four hours, and his close friends claim that he will be the nominee. Last evening, In a prominent North Queen street saloon, a bet of $100 even was made by a friend of Dr. Davis that he will defeat Denues for the nomination for mayor. In the First ward Dr. Davis is at a dis advantage. All the best workers are against him, and if the vest pocket voters de net come te his rescue.he will be beaten In his own district. There is an old-time contest In the Second ward, with the lines strictly drawn, Mentzer has laid himself out te beat Levi in his own ward, and with the help he has it leeks as If he would de It. In the Third ward Davis will have the ward practically solid. There were a few parties here whose personal preference was Denues. They were given te understand that they must be for Davis, and they fell into line without any further pretest. The fight for alderman in the Fourth ward between A. K. Spurrier, who has held the position for the past three terms, and Harry Zeek, a comparative new comer te this elty, has become exceedingly warm. In fact It is new about the hottest battle In the whele city outslde of that for the mayoralty nomination. Up te within a short time age It was believed that Spurrier had the best of the figtt, but the friends of the ether claim te be en top. In this ward it is sure that much money will be spent. The Zeek men wero telling around this morning that for every dollar the Spurrier people spend, they will have ene te meet it. This year ex-DIstrlct Attorney Jehnsen and Spurrier are ou the outs, and the former Is leading the Zeek forces, aided by James Doebler, Peter Fordney, Councilman Dan Dan lel Sing and W. W. Grlest. The last named Is said te be keeping his hands off, but he is dead against Spurrier. Majer Griest wants te take but little Interest in the fight, but he favors Spurrier. Fordney has been protendlng te be for Spurrier all along, uut. no saw a new light yesterday from sonie cause. He nt ence started In fight ing hard for Zeek and he and "Danny" Sing made a canvass of the ward last nigh!. Spurrier is a geed politician hlmself and has the advanUge of his competitor in being much better known in the ward. He will be assisted iu his fight principally by Washington Potts, Constable Elcheltc and Harry M. Shaub. Denues friends in the ward are mostly against Spurrier. Denues will have a handsome majority in the Fifth ward. Jehn If. High could poll a geed vote if A. J. Eberly would ex ert himself, but he will net. The best ward workers are for Denues. Davis will poll a fair vote and it would be greater If his friends had been active. Iu the Sixth ward the contest for alder man is practically settled and Fey will be badly boaten. Denues will carry the ward but his majority will net be what his friends leek for. It all depends en High's vote. If that is heavy in tills district Denues' majority will be small. In the Seventh ward there is no change, and Denues may have one of the old-time Bull Ring majorities. The coons are en the fence, and many of them declare they will net vete. If they remain away from the polls Denues' majority will he lessened by.the number of their votes. It is authoritatively slated this afternoon by one who is In the secrets of Dr. Davis' managers, that a deal was made at neon to day by which the colored voters of the city will cast their ballets solidly for Davis for mayor. The Denues men In the Seventh ward are despoudent, and fear that be may lese the ward. One of the great centests this afternoon Is at the Eighth ward polls and each of the factions is straining every point te win. Dr. 'Davis has many friends In this ward and his friends profess in be able te carry it by a handsome majority. The Denues men will net concede the ward te their opponents. It leeks as if the Davis faction bad the best of It. The Ninth ward is claimed by both sides. It leeks as if the majority would net be much olther way. The chances are in favor of Davis. TIIK STATU 01' THINGS NOW. All afternoon gangs of Republican rounders have been standing around the street corners waiting for the polls te open at 4 o'clock. Many of thorn were drunk at neon already, and plenty were quite noisy. As the ufternoeu advanced the crowd grew larger and drunker. It Is cer tain that a very great deal of meney Is te be spent te-day and before the polls close this evening. Beth factions have plenty of meney, and the peel is said te be very fat. Each slde charges the ethor with having the most and also with doing all kinds of dirty tricks. Den ues Is said te have put 9000 into the peel te nomlnate him, and mere has preliably been subscribed by ethers. The I)als peeple are said te have lets of boedlo. This morning a Denues politician sent two of his men te Davis te try and ' work " him for some meney and in that way see If he was giving any out. The fellows .were from the Ninth ward and they were re ferred te Rnuben Berlflcld and Jacob Hertz as the managers there. Later the " lieys " were seen drunk and with money, se they must have " seen " somebody, a Death of Geerge Splndler. Geerge.

There Is a young lady living In Detroit who for some time has been the recipient of the attentions of two young men, ene a professor In the State unlverslty at Ann Arber and the ether a traveling salesman for a New Yerk wholesale hardware house, whose route extends through Michigan and parts of Canada. One day last week the New Yerker arrived In Detroit late In the afternoon, and, of ceurse, Immediately started making the rounds of the retail hardware dealer?, with the laudable pur pose of selling each a geed stock for the winter before the representative of the rival house should put In an appearance. He had hoped te call en the object of his affections In the evening, but business was geed, and 8 o'clock found him busy trying te Induce a Woodward avenue dealer te take six dozen axes, four dozen grind stones and a half carload of woedon palls. At this stage of the proceedings a young brother of the young lady dropped iu te buy a new Jack-knTfe, and montlenod casually that the Ann Arber professor was up at the heuse. It Instantly occurred te the enterprising hardware and cutlery salesman that the professor had come for no ether purpose than te lay his heart at the feet or the young lady he himself adored. F'er a momeiit there was a struggle In his brmst, but he speedily get control' of himself and decided that he could net possibly leave the store., ss the dealer was just en the point of deciding te take the palls. But the thought of giving up the lady who bad been for months constantly In his inlud, waking or sleeping, was un bearable. Light suddenly dawned en him. Handing the dealer a circular explaining the merits of his new deuble-bladed chopping knives, he requested the use of the merchant's telephene for live minutes, stepped te It and rang upHie central effice. A moment later the telephene bell at the residence of the young lady rang sharp and decisive. The professor had been there for an hour talking pleasantly of the grand edu cational work they were doing in the department of fossilelogy at Ann Arber. When the bell rang, the lady's father being absent, (he was a physician), she excused herself and went Inte the adjoining room te answer It, The professor heard her step te the tele phone and say "Yes," make a short pause, and say, " Yes" again. Then there was a short pause and be heard her say, " Why why really this is sudden. " Then there was a still longer pause and he heard her say " Yes, " softly, then, " Goed-byo, " and she hung up the receiver and came back Inte the room. The professor moved closer te the fl re and remarked that It was a chilly evening, and he thought it was going te snow, and then resumed his talk about the great work at the university. Fifteen minutes later there was a ring at the front deer bell. The lady answered It and a district mes senger boy handed her a plain geld ring, which she slipped en her linger and re turned te the parlor. ' Miss -," said- the professor no minutes later. "I want te ask you an Important question this i n. ii-hw iui ifuitiiiH ik mining, you be inv wife?" Twe minutes later the professor went down the front steps, shook his fist at the telephone wlre and took the 8:45 train for Ann Arber. TWO 8ISTKR.3 DEAD.

Mr. Rarnum, of Ind., moved te adjourn, but the speaker declined te recognlre him and again put the motion en uppi oval of the Journal. Bland ilomauded the yeas and nays (which were ordered) and pending this, moved te adjourn, but the speaker was deaf te this motion which called forth a declara tion irem Hprlnner that this was tyranny slmple and unadulterated, aud a further declaration from Bland' that It was an out eut eut rage and that the Heuso could net be, In mero demoralized condition than the speaker. Anether storm swept ever the Heuso, caused by vigorous pretest from Bynuni, lu which he vigorously attacked the siieakcr, calling forth cheer after cheer from the Democrats. The Democrats again refrained from vot ing, but the speaker sat coely glancing ever the Democratic slde hew and then checking oft' a member whose name was called and who refused te vete. The vole resulted yeas, 103; nays, 0, and the speaker's deci sion was sustained. Again Declared a Querum, On Thursday after Mr. McKlnley had speken In dofetiso or Mr. Reed he was fol lowed by Mr. Turner arguing against him and by Mr. Butterworth supporting the counting of a quorum aud quoting from the proceedings or stale legislatures te show that It had been done. When Butterworth concluded, a roll-call was had en a motion te adjourn, which wus defeated, when tlie vete en laying the ap peal en the table was taken. This was de clared carrled. The Democrats docllue te vete and the sieaker again counted a quorum. If Randall Had lleuii There". Prem the Philadelphia Ix-dicvr, And tliere wero the Dotnecrats, endeavor ing te marshal themselvcs Inte a successful defehse of thelr rights, a position which Hiiimiu uuvu uieue mom strong, nut which, In endeavoring te held, they showed most lamentable wnakness. The single dofense they had left, after Scdker Reed had shown that he Intended te use lawlessly the lawless pewer his position in the ab sence of rules gave him -the slugle dofense they had was te leave the Heuse " with out a quorum." This, under ordinary circumstances, Is achieved by refusing te vote. The sioaker had headed this off by noting the members who were present iu the hall, although net voting, counting them iu the roll call, and thus manufactur ing a quorum. Then, If they were te pur sue the " no quorum " policy, what should they have doneT Manifestly they should have met the speaker's usurpation, for that Is what It was under the Immemorial iinin. tice of the Heuse and should ha vw left the Heuse entirely Instead or hanging around In the halt and the cloak rooms and lobbies. Having adopted a revolutionary ceurse lu defense, they should have followed It log ically te a conclusion. Heme such thing as this they would have done in a quiet aud cfloctive way If they had been led and guided with firm Intelli gence. But they had tee many leaders, these In the front rank being mere stubborn fighters, llke Springer, or mere skilled fencers In debate, like Carlisle, or fervently eloquent haraiiguers, like Breckenrldge, or Kentucky, There were tee many of them, such as they were, and the oue right man was net tliere; mi that the whole of their het struggle amounted at least te mero sound and fury signifying nothing. Hew different It would have been had Randall been well aud iu the lead and Hamlng In the urea In front of the speaker's chair. As It wus, the Democrats were right, aud were Igiioiuliileusly beaten.

A young Englishman who steed next him openod a conversa tion with him about the play, asking him if he liked te watch it. 'Yes,' said he, Much better than governing Brazil.' The Englishman, who hadn't the faintest idea who he was, evidentty surmised that he hud struck an escutied lunatic and quletly moved te my side te be out or harm's way, and when, shortly after, Dem Pedre moved out or the room, the English man observed, Drell duffer, that.' Yes, said I, ' that's the oinperor of Biazll. ' I don't think I have evor encountered a droller expression of amazement than my young Britisher's face exhiblted. " Troubles ofCe-Eduoatlon. A new rule has lately been Inaugurated at Dlcklsen seminary. Fer many years the bell hss only rang once between recita tions. This left the ladles and gentlemen In the halls passing te and from recitations at one time, and as Is natural, they took advanUge of the opportunity te speak te one another, affording a bleckade almost impassable, Te remedy this the faculty concluded that the bell should be rung twice at change In recitations, two minutes apart. At the first ringing the ladies leave the recitation room and go Immediately te the room In which they have their next recitation or te their own I rooms. At the second ringing the gentiemen fellow suit. The rule works well, and the faculty rejoice. Htrasbunr Notes. SruAsuuiui, Jan. 31, Dr. S.
