HUMPHREYS all we will inflict upon our readers connection with our recent visit Boston. One Sabbath we had the pleasure of attending services at Trinity church, the bon ton Episcopal sanctuary of which the noted Rev.

Phillips Brooks is Eector. It is located on Copley square, the handsomest public square we have ever seen in any city. It is removed fiom the business and. rather in the residence part of the city. As you emerge from a street leading to this square and Qrst see it in all its beauty, you naturally stop in amazement.

In the centre is a beautiful lawn and the sidewalks and streets are handsomely paved. On every side are as elegant structures as you ever laid eyes Trinity church, the New Old South church, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and in modern style. Trinity church is perhaps the most impressive and elaborate church ediDce in Boston. The congregation was originally an off-shoot 'from King's Chapel. It was dedicated in 1877 when three Bishops and one hundred and four surpliced clergymen entered the main portal.

The cost of the land and building was about eight hundred thousand dollars. The shape of the church is that of a Latin Cross, and the tower is over iiOO feet high, roofed with red tiles from Akron, O. This face was somewhat of a think that "the Hub" had to come to Ohio for material for one of their-most fashionable churches. This ponderous square tower is a conspicuous object from many parts of the city and harbor. The interior of the church is handsomely frescoed and it is lighted by many brilliant pictured windows painted in representation of Bible scenes.

There are two reading desks besides the main pulpit. The latter appears to be swung from one of the sustaining piers of the tower, is quite high and has a sounding board. The church was crowded to its utmost capacity, as it is every Sabbath, many standing throughout the entire service. Of course everybody has heard of Phillips Brooks' wonderful rapidity of delivery. It is said that he has an impediment of speech, something like Hale Unitarian.

As many of their families leave for seaside resorts during the summer, this was the last Sabbath School service until early Fall, and as is their custom they were giving each child a potted plant, which they are expected to take care of and in the Fall bring a blossom therefrom. Mr. his long flowing black robe, was assisting in distributing the (lowers to the children. Afterwards we went to the basement to see the noted parlor, dining room and kitchen of the church. The parlor is a thirty by forty foot room handsomely furnished like the parlor of any well-to-do family, with piano, easy chairs, It also had writing table, books, etc.

The dining room contains a long extension table, a side-board, a dresser full of dishes, The kitchen has a gas stove and cooking utensils. While we were looking about Mr. Hale came in and greeted us cheerfully He is a tall, spare built, dark complexioned, partly bald-headed, rugged featured man. We told him where we were from. "Ob, yes," said he, "I have often been in Xenia.

CLEVELAND, May kind of Providence smiled on Cleveland to-day, and if the weather had been made to order the day could not have been a more perfect one. Every regular train from the east, west and south was loaded to the platforms and special trains brought thousands of patriotic people from all over northern Ohio. STATE A Great Class This Evening. State For and a half after chapel yesb campus presented a scene of fusion and excitement.

guns and belts, collars and etc. could be seen strewn over campus in a wild and distracted -manner; students were lying under-toe trees exhausted, and some, even fainted. The occasion of all' this fusion was a regular old-tfme ru.b between the freshmen The fray was precipitated by one onne waving aloft -colors, which he had taken feomamem- ber of that class. He was The city had put on early as Wednesday holiday attire as evening and the trustee of Wilberforce I know Bishop Tayna very used to be University. well and respect him very much.

I am (or have been) a Trustee of Antioch college and have to go there often." He then proceeded to explain to us the particular uses of the rooms above described as their rooms for social gatherings, and a place where toe ladies of the church could meet in a friendly way at any time, adding that the church is always open. "I should be sorry, decorations were the finest ever attempted by the people of the capital of the Western Reserve. The air was literally filled with red, white and blue bunting arranged in tasteful designs of every conceivable shape. The people admired this show, but they had come to see something else. The Mecca to which all had journeyed was beautiful Lakeview, in which lie the remains of the martyr Garueld, and toward that spot all steps were turned.

Four street car lines, with 500 cars, were unable to accommodate the crowds. Every carriage that could be hired was brought into requisition and still thousands walked. The procession was not to move until shoitly after noon, but only a small part of it was to start from down town, new divisions forming and joining the line at every ber of tha cass. beset by the sophs and the tug began The freshmen soon produced a cane, daring the sophs, to take "from them, which challenge was.no sooner- spoken than accepted. For hour the two classes were iaeacb other arms, wrestling and fighting, themselves up in writhing heaps of the seniors crying for'92 and tne for '93.

In vain did Lieutenant Kilbourn issue the orderfor the battalion to fall in. The students were bound to see it out and they did.

As we passed out through the lecture room our attention was called to one of Mr. Hale's mottos, over the reading desk, and we copied it, as follows: "Look up and not Down-Look Forward and not Backward-Look out and not in-Lend a Hand." It is a rather singular thing that Mr.

Hale's co-pastor or assistant is also named Edward Hale but he is no relation to the noted divine. He is aged about 35 years. AMONG THE CHURCHES. Where Services Will be Held and Those Who Will Preach To-morrow. UStTBr.

It was the greatest rush the college has seen for years, and it wilt be remembered. miles of the long five-mile march to the cemetery. When the procession finally moved there were at least 150,000 cheering people massed in Euclid avenue, between Monumental park and Lakeview, nd thousands more awaited at the emetery. Business had been nniver- dlly suspended and everybody who ould do so had come to see the grand ageant.

With the exception of the Garueld funeral in 1881 there never was uch a crowd gathered here before. The greatest applause was reserved or the honored guests of the day- President Harrison, Vice President Morton, members of the other celebrated visitors, Genl. man, Gen. SchoQeld and others.

Smith, of the 3rdU. P. church, Xenia.) At first one can scarcely follow him, so apid is his delivery, but those who are ised to him say they have no trouble this direction. The sermon we leard we thought very fine and his audience was certainly ediEed and en- ertained. It contained some beautiful noughts put in a new and striking manner.

There are three galleries, of them for auditors, the third for organ and choir. The pipes of the organ occupy two sides of a corner, each side being about the size of the front of the organ in the Presbyterian church, Xenia. There appeared to be about forty persons in the choir. The New Old South Church, Congregational, is quite near Trinity church, occupying a corner on Copley square It is a superb edifice of Roxbuxy and Ohio stone, and cost alxnd half a million dollars. The form is that of a cross, about 100 by 200 feet in area, and it has 900 sittings.

The great tower is an imposing structure, 24S feet high. At the intersection of the arms of the cross tfie roof opens up into what they term a "lantern," twenty feet square, and covered on the'outside by a pointed dome of copper, partly gilded. The outside appearance of this is very handsome, commanding the admiration of all beholders. The inside finish the church is elegant. One window cost 82,500.

It represents the announcement of Christ's birth to the shepherds. Other windows represent the parables, miracles, prophets and apostles. The organ has 55 stops pipes. In the porch of the church is a tablet bearing this inscription: "Ola South and Blessed of God for more than two hundred years while worshiping on its original site, corner of Wasbiagten and Milk streets, Old South still standing and hitherto described) whence it -was removed to this building in 1875, amid constant proofs- of His guiding and loving favor." Near this tablet are inserted in the wall three old sandstone tombstones, taken from the "Old South" burial ground, adjoining the Old South Church. On" them are the following inscriptions: "Here lyeth ye body of John Alden, senior, aged .75 years, deceased March 1701 or 1702." "Here lyeth buried ye body of Joshua Scottow aged 83 years, deceased January 20, 1697 or 1698." "Ann Quinsey, aged 13 years, deceased Sept.

and the air was filled with music. It was nearly 3 o'clock when the head of the procession passed through the magnificent memorial arch at the entrance to Lakeview and began the march along the winding and gently ascending drives leading to the bluff at the rear of the cemetery on which the memorial is situated. The exercises began at 3:15 o'clock. Ex-President Hayes, who is the president the Gaifield Memorial association presided. He made a brief address, then introduced Gen.

Jacob D. Cox, who was the orator of the day, and who made a lengthy and splendid address. After this President Harrison was loudly called for and responded briefly. All the speeches were interspersed with music. President Harrison was followed by Vice President Morton and Governor Campbell, who made short speeches.

There were cries for General Sherman, and when the old warrior responded there was tumultuous cheering. General Sherman said: COMRADES ALL-! have come here to pay my tribute of love to the memory of James Abram Garueld, whom I saw after he was wounded and whose body I accompanied to this spot; and now it fremnlfi.
