THE DA STAXPAED-Uyioy; BROOKJTN, AVEUNESDAY. EEliHUAIIY FOR ART AND SCIENCE. LAST NIGHT'S MEETING AT THE BROOK-. LYN INSTITUTE. "A i A 9 k.

'a, sfiy rr; tory of all great cities the first efforts of man most be given to the evident essentials of the primary necessities of life in each city. But as soon as these are satisfied, and streets are graded and laid, and bouses built, and so on, then the smrnual life of that cty began to assert itself in the form of artistic architecture and picture and parks and the like. It was a law of all great communities, and he was glad to see that Brooklyn was making an attempt to follow out that law an equal ratio to her growth and wealth and population. The speaker then analyzed the meaning of the spiritual art. He asked why it was that straight line.

was so distasteful to the eye and why a circle, or a segment of the circle, was pleasant and satisrymg. He concluded that it was because the line led to nowhere, that it suggested a wandering off into spice ff)m wbicli there was no return, while the circleendosed a portion of a distinct area, or suggested that did, and hence infused into tue spirit a uf certainty add hoine-iike comfort. Hence it was that thepamter, or the architect, or the art worker any way used the curve in its thousands of variations. But to appreciate this, as to appreciate all else in art, a certain education was required, and this tu-cation the com mg museum of art proposed to give to the public. 1 be cultivation of the art spirit in the people was as much necessity as was the cultivation of any other beautiful quality of the human mini The more spitTCuaiized a people became the better they were in every Indeed, the cultivation of the spirit was the chief eud and mm of all humm educational effort.

An besides this art bad a dual aspect. a it was the expression ot the spirit of man. One could, through its medium, catch aglmipee of the higher nature peeping through it desbly garments. Dr Baker then spoke of the teachings of art. stating that the finest art consisted of suggestion.

A dim distance, a broken shadow, or a clump of halt-hidden trees gave tnougbt for the taocy and for the working of the soul of the spectator. The proposed museum of art was a necessity for Brooklyn ine the soul lire of the people. The speaker then gave a few illustrations of bow a proper collection is an eye educator, citing the charactenstirsNQf Doric, Iooic and Athenian art as exampks Irbpomt He finished with an earnest appeal lor moral and geueral support from the citizens of Brooklyn. The Rev. Dr.

MEREDITHS BIG CLASS. 5 The tor Next 8nndy ExeltM Lively Interest and Many Questions Are Asleep Earnest Discourse by the Paster. The next Sunday school lesson is the first twenty verses of the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Mrk, wherein it is told how Christ delivered a man of a legion of devils that entered into the swine, the latter running down a steea place into -the sea, where they were choked. The lesson was read responsively last evening In the Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church, by the Rev. Dr.

Meredith and bis immense Bible class, immediately after the singing of part of the 306th hymn, beginning Come, Thou Almiybty Ring, Help us Tuy name to $iog. At the request of Dr. Meredith the Rev. Dr. Diecber delivered the usual opening prayer, after which the pastor made two announcements one of a public meeting of the Sunday fecnool Umon at the Janes M.

nurcu, and the other a concert to be given auder the auspices of the Kinds Daughters of Avenue Congregational Church, evening, for the benefit of ue cvtali Air Fund. Ibe pastor spoke oow veiy earnest woris for tbS chanty, saying: there anybody who cau lend a band to aid th.s work be will be doing Gods service. iue pastor confessed his ovu responsibility few placing the price ot the tickets of admission at tweucy-five cents, but assured the audience that the charge was ho gauge of the quality of tho concert, which was ea any worth one dollar and a half. 1 The usual collection was taken, and the audience sang two verses of the hymn beam-mug 6 faith looks up to Thee. Our les-oti last Tuesday nigbt, said the pastor, was ou the parable of the sower We said it was one of eight recorded in Matthew and one recorded bv Mark alone, probably spoken by the Lord as He stood bv the ea of GaliUee or as be sat the fisbermaus boat It was not until the aiteruoou that be came to the shore of the sea and began to teach by paraoltsa.

And tueu the Uk.geMiou was made that they should go over to Oiu other side. 1 call your attention ou every opportunity, because I waot to bora it into your minds, to the humanity of Jesus Christ. Christ did not perform Hi miracles without the slightest exhaustion or loss of streugth. 1 he Master was a man, a man ln things like uuto his brethren, a man of very sensitive nature and very compassionate. How otten it is stated that be was moved.

He was easily moved with compasion towards the multitude about him. Kveu though be had the power and exercised it of giving relief there was exhaustion. lam very sure that in his teachings there was an expenditure of nervous force. Alter tins day teaching a a soon as the strain was relaxed he lay down in the boat and with a piece of wood for a pillow feil asleep There be lies, an niter exhausted man, even hi nervous force exhausted for the time being luere came up one of those storms when the waves were lashed into tury. The disciples trembled with fer.

but stiii the poor tired man slept the stern of that boat At last the disciples oould not hold in longer and cried out, Master, carest Tnou not if we perish and the cry of oilman distress entered the ot the sleeping Jesus louder than the Gallilean storm. But he is no longer the man. It is tne mighty Son of God. He speaks and the wind quiet and tne seas fall, the sky is clsar and there is a great calm. There are a number of such pictures where the two natures are brougut together, the man on one side and God on the other.

You will have to be careful in looking at this lesson or you will waste your time. I his lesson has the most magnificent t.ppor-tunities fur wasting time of any in the whole senes. It you are not you will have just fooled away your time and the childrens tune and -Gods time on questions that no mortal can answer. I could propound questions upon it as fast as I can breathe tnat 1 dont believe an angel could answer. Let us leave those questions that are bevond our grasp for some one who has more time toan we have.

Now, what happened when Jesus was starting up from the shore np through some cut in the bills A oice There met him two men poasesed with a demon Pastor Is that wbat Mark said? One man," corrected another voice. Pastor That brother says one man; that brother has read from Matthew. What savs Luke I One man. Pastor How do you account for that? Reply Mark and Luke dont deny that there were two men, and they probably eive the most prominent one, Pastor Yes. theres a common-sense way of dealing with these things.

They belong to a class of questions which superficial people are glad to Seize on as contradictions. There is no contradiction in it. It is perfectly reasonable to suppose that there might have been two or even more than that; but that one of them waa so much worse than the other that Mark, writing years afterward, makis oniv one wane Matthew makes two. They are at one so completely in every eesentiaj point that in the mouths of four independent iritncama every word is established; so the Gospel has nothing to lose by marking such differences as that, tv hat waa the condition of the m.e Christ met? He possessed an unclean spirit." said one. Pastor tV ouid the class put lt that way? Another I think the unclean spirit possessed him.

Pastor Thats the question I wanted to raise. Now, what do you understand by this demoniacal possession? The demon governed and controlled his actions, was one reply. The question was repeated. it was the influence of a demon," said one. Another ln this case it poakssed his body as well as bis soul.

Pastor bat do yon understand by demoniacal possewion? Give os your thought. Ob if you only had pluck enough; if you had the courage of your convictions, wbat a grand time we would have on this question 1 DrC by 3-cm, responded 006 Pastor Vou all believe the New Testament, and that it is inspired of God. We can justify to ourselves the spending of an evening every week with it because we believe it to be the tmuafly GOd Dd W0 meet that thing con- A Voice The man was possessed of an evil spirit and not responsible for his own actions." Like a man with delirium tremens." said another. Insanity," suggested a third. Gree ns your thoughts, urged the pastor.

great deal sooner have your thoughts than to eive von Do yoa suppose we know anything of the demous of oldr inquired ana. about it, replied the questioner, Laatzhter 1 Jf you keep your ears open, responded the pastor pleasantly, perhaps yon will learn something." Renewed Laughter.) anT less power to-day than be had then? asked one. Has her queried the pastor I dont think be has." said the same voice. Pastor I am not so sure about that. Another questioner ere there any cases of this kind known before tfie tune of Christ I A lady 1 here was the case of bauL Were tbee people it all responsible for their possession was Another in the audience said Yes." kHow do you know thatr inquirtd the pas- Resist the devil and ha will flee from vou.

was the answer. Question Do you believe the deni has almighty power I Pastor No. I don't either," said he querist, and there was another npple of laughter. Pastor tie devil dont have to be almighty He has to be onlv a little mightier than I to St into me. When I am crvmg to God for lp he will strain me to the last extremity A oice How about Job I Pastor Don't let's get back as far as that.

Job is a different problem. Better not bring him in. Laughter. A Lidy When Satan failed in his tempta-tioii of Christ he turned himself on humanity with increasing power aud malignity. A Voice Was not Satan the father of sin Pastor According to Milton.

That's as far as 1 know. There's no record of it excvpt Paradise Lost. There are other views on this matter. Tnere 13 tho taeorv that undertakes to account tor these possessions by natural law. 1 his theory would account for them as eases of epilepsy, dumbness and insanity.

1 ou w.U find a large number of persons wuo believe something of this kind. If you so closely into tneir philosophy you wiU find that they don believe the personality of eviL Toey believe there is such a thing named in the bioie, but that it is a principle of evil, a sort of incarnation of the idea. Then yon wiU find another class of persons woo recogaae the tact that there are evil spirits in the world; toat those evil spirits pressed upon human spirits then as now, and that where th human will mtde its choice in harmony with the evil suggestions of the demon there came to be a weakening of everything good in th man and a strengthening of the evil in him- aiuLthat toat process being carried to a certain point the strongrr nature dettroy the luuivi lualiry. ainioot i personality, of tha weaker, and the deviJ posesse ihs man. Ani you will find a very large number of persons tins cla-s woo believq that these things existed beiore the time of Christ ana that there are instances of them todav.

Satraoo indicate bere to-night, that demoniacal possessions were peculiar to tbe time of Chnt and his apostles; that it has not been nermicted to Natan since that time to control men's bodua be did in thos times; furthermore, that there was some sort of demon possession that was independent of moral obliquity. Somethin has ben said about the peculiar activitr of Satan at that time.

Why not? Is it not harmony with all that pertains to the case? The upper world was active. The angels were quick to come to Jesus. It was in the prophecy that Jesus was to bruise the sement's bead. Personally, I believe that there was peculiar activity of the beavenlv world and in the world from beneath ia the time of Jesus. 1 bore is no ue in bein dogmatic 00 it.

I am qivm you the best view I can get. Your jgjew mav be aa valuable as mine taka the satisfies me the best.

A man has to be possessed of a devil before be can be a Richard Ii hat we want to temcb the boys and girls to-day is that it is a pretty solemn thing to Jive.

Thera are good angels ani the blessed Christ on one side, on the other there are the principalities and powers ot the kingdom of darkness. A Voice Will yoa go back to the origin ot Satan?

The pastor closed his exposition by presenting a graphic picture of toe misery of tne man described in the lessoo as possessed of devua, and ha hanpy condition after they were driven out; ani assured teacher tnat if this lesson could not aid them in convet ung souls be did not know what lesson would. Christ was rejected and He returned, rejected and again Ke returned, but ir some be wonld go away and never come back.

It la Intended That Thla CltT Shall Rata a Museum Worthy of Her-Iutereatine Speeches a Number of Well-known Speaker. A meeting of citizens took place last night in the Brooklyn Institute for the purpose of -siis-cutsing aud taking the preliminary steps to the formation of an organization which it is intended shall unite the various art interests of Brooklyn in an effort to establish an art and science museum in this city.

The meeting was at the call of a number of the most prominent The rev. dr. c. h. hall.

citizens of this city, including Mayor A. C. Chapin, Beth Low, Eugene O. Blackford, T. B.

Willis and over two hundred other, arM a number of well-known ladlH-Several hundred persons wore pra-ent at the meeting, over which Gen. J. B. woodward presided. The Chairman, after a few words of intro Icic-txon which he alluded to the evident interest on the part of the citizens of Brooklyn in the matter for which the meeting had been called wevinced bv the number present, introduced Prof.

F. W. Hopper, whose 'topic was the Brooklyn Institute and Its Uses, In a brief iddress the speaker cited the advantages of the institution, told of its terms of membership, Jbe special objects ot its founders, and said that uter an apparent lethargy of twenty years or iore it was arousing itself to do noble work He made two suggestions in relation to the matter. The first was that an attempt te made to secure for the city of Brooklyo the best land available for a museum of arts and sciences, and for a genera I borne lor the orgau-wation that controls and directs both. To his mind the ideal place in he city for the purpose in question was the Plaza at the main entrance at Prosoeot Park.

Here, if it were possible, on ihe lower part of the Plaza, on the leit. might be built tne museum for art, and on the right that for scieuce. Besides, there would be the mam building, consisting of a memorial hall in which should be placed Jhe stkitues of all those men and women who lave done so much to mike Brooklyn what ne is. Then tin re should be an auditorium folding two or thiee thousand of people, and fight and left of that should be the various departments and class rooms. Again there was another site, that of Prospect Hill.

Here the nmui budding could take up that portion of the hill looking south and right and left, and if needs beat the lotfcom could be erected the other buildings. The Professor then touched on the impetus winch art had received in Brooklyn during toe past few years, and said DU. CHADWICK- that he felt assured that the scheme unJor con -sulerahon would lie fully successful. Uhe chuirmon then read this letter; Jan. 2J, IRM.

Dr. A. J. F. Behrends wns then introduced ond srnd that he would sneak on the practical of the subject.

The ettv of Brooklyn has been slow to assert her individuality. Tins was a mistake, a id a very large oue. There wr.g a duty which a man owed to himself, and that was to make the rest of the world toeHns prooer worth. And the same thin" stood Rood of cities. I like modest people, went on the speaker, but it strikes me that on this particular point the citys worth our people are too modest.

It is quite possible to carry modesty too far. have been the independency of New York so long thnt we have suburb in the blood. LsuUt-r. Public spiut and local pride have been tardy lit asserting themselves, but I am gUJ to see that then-have u-eerted theraseHes at last. I am sorry to note the fact that a good many Brnoklyultes think that unl'ss we are annexed we are undone.

I dont think so. I think that Brooklyn will survive a good many veurs vet without being tacked to the skirts of New York. Laughter. It is true that in the list of the 400 none of these are located this sile of the river, but what of that? Laughter It mav be that New York leads us ill wealth and population, but that is no reason why Brooklyn suould forget her per sonal claims on the public esteem. If we must PROF.

HOOPSR. Ilnallv merge our individuality into that of another city we will only give up our corporate independence in a prooer way, and not merely slide into New York. I note that some New Yorkers seem to tmnk we have onlv two places of interest here, and they Greenwood Cemetery and the Navy Yard. Laughter. If they would look around them they would see many and verv ditJfeuTplaces which claim their respect the 'Seney Hospital, the Historical Society, tho Pratt Institution, the Long Island Hospital, the Poly technic, Packers, tne Adel-phi, and other equally famous institutions.

Dr. Behrends then went ou to say that in the Brooklyn Institute there were to be found the germs of a magnificent and far-reaching culture Many taxpayers will in all probability erv out against any call which may be made on thecity tunds for financial support of the comiug museum of art They will possibly point to un paved streets and remark on the need of new sewers- But such mus, noc forget that the museum is not a mere collection of valueless curiosities. It is a meaus of sound public education, lt is, too, tor the people and by the people, and therefore should be of the people. Dr. Behrends called attention to the fact that tne majority of institutions of science aDd art began in a very small wav.

Twenty years ago the Museum of Natural History New York was carried in the carpet bag of oue man aud consisted of a few stutl ed buds and a couple of waits on natural history. To-day it Is a magnificent collection, fitly housed, and the recipient of various' donations from tho Government amouuctng iu all to one and one-halt millions of dollars. He wanted th- same thing here in Brooklyn. This movement, if only one step, was a step in tho tight direction. The sneaker ended by appeal-the pul lie pnae, to the growing: art spirit, to tiie'awakenmg interest in such for a definite torm and exDusvuon of such Interest.

The Rev. C. Baker spoke next on art as expression of tne spiritual life ci Biooklvn.

He believed that the church of the future would be one in which God baving spoken hv His word would be even more recognized as by His worka He, for one, was never afraid of the light of science being thrown on religion.

Hall bD reverted to the conception of the Institute and spoke of the humble start hicu the institution had on Nov. 20 1824. when a few public-spirited men met in a little room at 14J Fulton street and there sowed the germs of what is now the Institute. He spoke in a euloc-istic manner of Augustus Graham who was the prime mover in the matter and who devoted a good portion of his fortune to the institution. Dr Hall then spoke at length on the need in which Brooklyn stood for institutions of the lt, ra contemplation to ect- He said that, incredible as it might appear, a Japanese boy in Yokohama was lietter supplied with books on matters connected with natural history and art than were Brooklyn boys.

Borne few years ago he wanted to identify a botanical specimen by reference and round that nowhere in Brooklyn was there a lofan cal colltcfcion which could give him the desired lufonuaLioo. Again, he wished not long since to get at some facts relative to Bar-undoes, bnt failed to obtain triem anywhere in tins city or New York. Then he went to Breton, visited one of the libraries there, and with.n ten minutes had in bis possession all that he wanted to know.

Hall paid a high tribute, however, to some of the existing THE REV. M. Hires Brooklyn institutes, particularly Pratts Institute, and ended By a glowing prophecy as to the fu'ure of art in Brooklyn. The Chairman then put a resolution proposed by Dr. Behrends, That this meeting accept the invitation of tho Brooklyn Institute, that it provides means for the establishing of a Museum of Arts and Sciences, and that it will do all in its power to further the work.

The Brooklyn Tabernacle Youtig Peoples Association gave a very successful entertainment in the lecture room of the church on Monday evemite last. The programme in-ciuaea piano solo, vocal solos and duets, recitations, dialogue and tableau.
