Colonel E. II. Hippie's appointment as
comml.seary general of the National
Guard of the Btate was confirmed by
the senate yesterday at Harrlsburg-. It
makes the colonel a member of the gov.
ernor's staff with the sume title he now
bears. The office of commissary Is a
most Important one to the state and
members of the Kuard, but It will not
make such serious Inroads on Mr. Hip
pie's time as the colonelcy of the Thir
teenth regiment did. The resignation
of Colonel Hippie as the commander of
that regiment was handed to the (?'
ernor several weeks ago and the new
appointment, of course, carries with It
the acceptance of that resignation
Lieutenant Colonel Coursen will be the
next colonel, and Major Mattes will
In all probability, be the next lieuten
ant colonel.
It was with deep regret that Colonel
Ripple found It necessary to resign the
command of the Thirteenth regiment
with which he had so long been lndentl
fled, but Increasing business matters
that required his attention made It
- Imperative for him to do so, as he was
no longer able to give the position the
amount of time It required and he dt
cllned to be simply a figure head, neg.
lecting the duties of the office to sub
nrdlnates. He took a futherly Interest
In the members of the regiment and
they reciprocated by a loyalty to him
and a devotion to duty that bus hud
much to do with placing the regimen
in the conspicuous place It has for years
occupied.

CHURCH AND El
I'aper Head by Attorney H. M. Streeter
on That Subject. ' ,
HE FLOOD SHOULD BE CHECKED
It Is a Duty the Church Owes to the Coun
try and Christian ClvilUutloii That
It Assist In Shutting Out the
Undesirable hleiueut.
At the regulur meeting of the Men's
ugue held at the Penn Avenue Hap
st church last evening a paper was
?ud by Attorney 11. M. Streeter upon
The Relation of the Church Toward
he Undesirable Kmlgrant." The tenure
f the paper favored the restriction of
emlgrution, as It was contended that
he present cluss of emigrants to this
ountry were uudcxkable and danger
ous to the well being of the country.
urinerly the country needed the aid of
migrants in a marked degree, but in
lie present day, us u result of competi
tion in ull the trades and Industries,
here had been a considerable reduction
u wages, with u corresponding decrease
In the demand for unskilled laborers.
The motive of emigrants hud also
hanged materially; formerly they
poured Into this country owing to a lack
of liberty in their native laud, but now
hey Hoiked to the states owing to a
lack of bread.
On an averugo, there ware 1,01)0,000
people constantly out of work In this
ountry and every year there were 4110,-
000 places to be tilled In our productive
ndustrles; but, as ugalnst ' this, there
were CuO.lWi) applicants added to the
population anuuully, leaving euch year
an added surplus of 40,000 to the army of
the unemployed.
"hat Phillips Brooks SalJ.
In order to emphasize his argument
Mr. Streeter read the following quota
tion from Kev. Phillips Hrooks, I). U:
'I I' the world in the great march of
enturies Is going to be responsible for
the development of certain nutlonal
haracteristlis, built up by a larger
type of manhood, here, then, for the
w orld's sake, for the sake of those very
nations that would pour In upon us that
which would disturb that development,
we have a right to stand guard over It."
Mi". Streeter then gave statistics, full
of Interest, showing the number of emi
grants from different countries during
the past twenty years, and the number
of unskilled laborers who had sought
these shores, showing that they were In
a heavy preponderance over mechanics
or skilled artlzans capable of assisting
n developing the resources of this great
country. Statistics were also given
showing the appalling percentage of
Illiterate persons included in the hordes
of emigrants. From other statistics
given the meeting was convinced that a
considerable proportion of the Inmates
of prisons. Insane asylums and paupers
were persons of foreign birth, and that
a relative comparison showed results
favorable to Inmates of native birth,
In number and other respects. Statis
tics were also presented showing that
the majority of emigrants were unac.
companled by their wives and children
who were left In their native land, until
the emigrant could accumulate some
money to carry bock with him to bis
own shores, bringing nothing to this
country and taking from of all he could
In the meantime.
Comments were also made upon the
large number of strikes and riots caused
by unskilled foreign laborers and spec
ial references were made to the commu
nications with the Italian government
regarding the riots In New Orleans.
It Is a Duty They Owe.
The conclusion arrived at In the
paper was that It was a religious and
civil duty which the church owed to tiie
country and christian civilization to
assist In checking the flood of enilgra
Hon so that the undesirable element
might be kept out, and that attempts
should be madetoeducateandchrlstlan
ize those of that clais already In this
country.
The discussion which followed wholly
endorsed the sentiments expressed by
Mr. Streeter, and It was decided that it
was advisable to organize free kinder
gartens, night schools, enforce compul
sory education und extended Sunday
school mission work for the purpose of
enlightening and educating the llllt
crate foreign population.
THREE CURTAIN CALLS.
.M.J. Gllbrlde's Without a Name lit vena
kindly Reception.
Judging from the uproarious enthusi
asm which greeted M. J. Gllbride at the
conclusion of the second act of "With
nut a Name," at the Academy of Music
his efforts as a dramatist and play
right have won great favor from a
large circle of admirers. Mr. Ollbrlde
was compelled to respond to three sue
cesslve culls and In returning his thanks
stated that the outburst of enthusiasm
was so Unexpected that he could no
find words to express his thanks for
their appreciation of his efforts. He
promised tlmt It would be an Incentive
for him to stage a play which woul
ultimately redound to his credit and
thut of his city. T. F. Rush, who pre
pured the mechanical effects, was also
compelled to respond to a cull.
"Without a Name," conceding the
difficulties to be encountered on the
first nli;ht, met with undoubted sue
cess. The second act lias a scene pre'
Hentlng a station on the Dcluware
Lnckawiinna and Western railroad
where u locomotive with steam hissing
from the safety valve and the bell
ringing out its warning notes, run
across the stage hauling a passeng
car. The entry of the train was greet
ed with continued applause and th
Innovation was pronounced a great suc
cess. There ure many points In the
play which show that Mr. (Jllbrldc has
skill ns a playrlght. At the conclusion
of the second act C. T. Roland made a
public presentation of a silk hat to Mr,
tlllbrlde as a girt from A. Rose, a warm
admirer. "City Government" will be
presented at Olyphant tonight.
