ingly large attemlanco
at tho Trinity Reformed
church last ovening,
Long boforo tho hour
fixed forthocommonco'
ineut of tho 6orviccs
ovory seat In tho body
and gallery of tho
church was filled and over a hundred people
were unablo to gain admission.
Tho services wore of a special cliaractor In
commemoration of tho centennial anniver
sary of tho Reformed church In tho United
States. Tho pulpit and spaco within tho
chaucol of tho church woro filled with beau
tiful plants and flowers and presented a mag-
nificent appearance
Eov. O'Boylo prefaced tho delivery of his
sermon with a brief rocital of tho Reformed
church's history in tho United States. Tho
first church In this country was established
on Nassau streot, New York city, in 1014 ;
nnd tho first Synod was held at Lancaster,
Pa., on April 30,1703. Tho church now has
300,000 communicants and 1,500 ministers.
The sermon was on "Tho Prodigal Son,"
and was delivered in Rev. O'Boyle's usual
effective spirit. A feature of tho ovoning's
sorvices was tho sacred music rendered by
tho Schoppo orchestra of fourteen pieces.
Tho programme was'as follows:
Opening overture ''Creation". H. Millard
' Como jo Disconsolate" B. Webbe
'Kock ill Ages" Dr. Thomas Hastings
Overture. "Consecration" Keler Dlela
"Jesus Lover of my soul" ....... u. Marsh
"Stat d up tor Jesus" , ,. Webb
In taking occasion to publicly thank tho
orchestra for its excellent rendition of the
muslo Rov O'Boylo said that it was his in
teution to resort to every legitimato ireans to
bring tho peoplo into tho houso of God and
when necessary to arrango for such attrac-
tlonsas may bo held out witli propriety,
The services of tho orchestra wero voluntary
and tho congregation is deeply grateful for
them. A special collection was taken up for
tho bonofit of tho new theological seminary to
bo erected at Lancaster and there was a
liboral response
The church will undoubtedly bo crowded
next Sunday evening, as Rev. O'Boylo an
nounced before closing tho services last night
that on that occasion ho will preach on
" '-y Men Don't go to Church."

Tiie II In lis Case.
It Is quite likely that tho case of Susan
Hinks, of town, who is charged with killing
her illegitimate child by throwing it into an
outhouse, will be presented to tho Grand
Jury to-morrow. M. SI. Burko, Esq., has
been retained to assist tho Commonwealth in
prosecuting tho case. Last week Sol Foster
and W. J. Whitehouso, Esqs., counsel for
Miss Hlnks, had measurements and investiga
tions made in and about the houso on West
Lloyd street, whero the crime is alleged to
have been committed. District Attorney
Ryan and Mr. Burke, in company with Chief
of Police O'Hara, also made measurements
and an investigation of the premises. It is
said tho trial will be a lengthy one.

English Lutheran church. There was a largo
attendance to hear a special sermon on the
event delivered to the members of Washing
ton Camp, No. 183, P. O. S. of A., by the
pastor, Rey. M. H. Havico. Tho sermon was
an excellent one and was patriotic to a high
degree.

"Held In Slavery."
It is an established fact and ono to be
regretted that even among tho reputable
managers, tho advertisements used to herald
tho attractions they represent In many cases
contain glaring announcements and pictorial
lithographs of sensational eflorts which are
never produced on the stage. A nautical
melodrama entitled "Held in Slavery," is an
exceptional case. It is positively stated by
critics and theatre-goers who havo seen tho
play that all of the elaborate scenery and
dramatic incidents shown on the advance
printing and contained in the newspaper
notices are presented on tho stago exactly as
advertised. Tho company is worthy patron
age, and under the circumstances "Held in
Slavery" will bo well received in Girardviile
