BILLIARDS It? A CHDRVH.
The Adams Congregational church re
cently dedicated a congregation house
and parsonage containing some radical
modern features. The bousa. .besides
containing more completely the' features
found in parish houses, baa a bowling
alley, a well-equipped gymnasium and a
billiard and pool room, the most radical
feature of. all. The auditorium has a
platform and footlights, as near in ap
proach to a stage as could well be built
in connection with a church, even in the
midst of liberal Adams folk. The church
has a -well-fitted kitchen, many tables,
lots of table linen, silverware and dishes.
It has reading rooms, classrooms and a
study for the pas tot.
The bowling alley is in tbe basement,
and is always full of merry youths at ac
cessible hours. The gymnasium in the
attic is constantly patronized. Last
week a class of young men was organ
ized and Professor Seeley of Williams
college was engaged for instructor. The
young women have become jealous, and
it has been decided to prohibit the use
of the gymnasium by tbe boys for sev
eral hours each dav and turn it over to
the girls, who are determined to form an
athletic association, too.
Tbe church is not selfish. It has
thrown open the doors of its fine con
gregation house to the whole commun
ity, believing that a bettering of social
conditions is a step toward purification
There are one or two of the old con-
eervative element who look unfavorably
upon the congregation house and its
well patronized pool and billiard tables
One says : "By and by there will be a
saloon connected with every church. If
you put in billiard tables, bowling a!
leys and gymnasiums and say as long
as the boys will play they had bet
ter play at church, why not put in a
bar, for as long as men will drink, why
- not let them drink at church?" Boston
Journal.
TOUCH NOT.
Music has a range and freedom all its
own and practically unlimited, yet there
are bounds which even the searchers
after harmony should not overstep. The
violet lifting its delicate bloom, can never
be anything but a violet, and it is loved
and enjoyed for its beauty, its delicate
perfume and Its breathing spirit of
modesty. To attempt to make anything
but a violet of it, is to destroy it. It is
so in music. The simole ballads that
touch the heart, from their very situ
plicity can be changed only to their die
truction. The "Old Folks at Home,
"Annie Laurie," and dozens of other
like songa of the heart, should be sacred
and above the touch of the modern van
dal, who destroys their charm with
"variations." We want the "Old Folks
at Home" and "Annie Laurie" as. they
were, and the variations we do not want
at all. "Annie Laurie" with Trilby
trimmings, and the "Old Folks at Home'
inocculated with the delirium tremens of
art can no longer touch the heart, but
instead, awaken a feeling of anger that
they have been desecrated by un
sympathetic minds.
Musical monstrosities, if they must be
created, should like Minerva be born full
grown, they should not be made from
those creations, that are already perfect
Put balloon sleeves and toothpick shoes
on tbe modern musical creations if you
will, but leave us the violets and prim
roses of song as nature made them.
v The announcement is made that the
children of Fred Douglass by his first
wife who was a negress, will contest the
will of their father which they claim dis-
criminates against them, and that their
father was influenced in making his will,
by the second wife, who is a white
cuticled woman. From all of which we
gather that while the boy's faces may be
black they are at heart just as selfish aa
a whiteman. The higher the civiliza
tion the greater is the quarrel over de
ceased parents property, and tnis being
true proves that Douglass' children are
in a high degree, cultured. ' '
The senate ot the state of Washing
ton yesterday defeated the Helm bill for
a maximum rate on railroads." It was a
good bill, a remarkable bill, a bill tbe
people wanted ; but the raailroad com
panies did not want it, and so it was put
to sleep by the "people's representa
tives." The initiative and referendum
will yet have to be adopted if the legis
latures of Oregon and Washington are
duplicated.
The legislature of Massachusetts by a
vote of 127 to 87, has refused to give wo
man the ballot. This can hardly be con
sidered a set-back to woman in general.
for in tbe case of the Massachusetts leg
islature, it must be take into considera
tion that the women the members
thereof had in mind, were the literary
curios of "Bosting." That they should
be denied the franchise is perfectly
proper, for there must be something
left by which the sexes may be distin
guished. And now it is reported that a son of
Mr. Mackay's is to marry Miss Consuelo
Vanderbilt, whose mother and father
were divorced a few days ago. The poet
Saxe had just such a couple in mind
when he wrote those biting lines on such
marriages:
I waive tbe case, the barren case f those
w no nave no hearts to Darter, or to lose.
Whose wedded state Is but a bargain made
In due accordance with the laws of trade.
When the prim parson joins their willing hands,
i o marry ciiy lots to western uraas,
Or in connubial ecstasy to mix
ash and collateral ten-per-cents with six,

President Cleveland, according to
Private Secretary Thurber, will be chas-
ing ducks and drakes in the swamps of
North Carolina for the next ten days.
