can hardly be compared Ril batters to the average Southern League club aniVience it will be neceeshry to ghe Ford another chance Mannion went tin'ough his work well and is now no experiment He is a good reliable catcher and a fine hitter The score below shows the fielding work of the locals They played a rather listless game seeming to put very little vigor and enthusiasm into their work Clinton

posted themselves against the fence end bagged the files He knocked one fly which hit the top of left field fence near the Sulphur Spring House It was one of the longest bits ever made on the grounds

Paper Read to a Large Audience The regular meeting of the Art Association which fell upon last night was held in the lecture room above the art rooms and a large cultured and attentive audience listened to a paper upon the influence of art read by (en Thruston the main feature of the evening The lecturer prefaced his speech by a remark of Catli3le'S that "there was no nation in the world ivitere there was so little mis' ery and so little happiness as in America" That as a people we are too much devoted to money-making and 'Material too much absorbed In business That we should endeavor tohave more repose more of a sense of rest and more recreation that the cultivation of a taste for the flue arts would refine and elevate our spiritual and moral standards The lecturer dwelt upon the aesthetic value of learning to properly appreciate the beauties of art as well as the beauties of nature That while we are running wildly after gain and speculation it was a good time to call a halt and see if we have not elements in our nature that properly developed and cultivated will give us a better return than this constant slaving and drudgery for gain He dwelt also upon the commercial value of art and the necessity of having educated designers and artists to compete with the rest of the world in the department of industrial art That this section ought not to be content with manufacturing only iron whisky cotton yarn and the regular products of labor He said Nashville was a city greatly blessed and beautified by aml that its citizens should have taste and cultivation enough to supplement its natural beauties with many artificial parked streets and buildings of high architectural excellence and simplicity rather than mere bed blocks of stores and dwellings representing ostentation rather than anything beautiful or homelike He referred to a remark of Charles Dudley Warner when he came into the rooms of the Nashville Art Association and found it full of students hard at work "Why this" be said "is better than the big cotton factory" A remark that did not detract from the usefulness of the great factory but only indicated that we bad advanced a step further and higher The lecturer declared Nashville was already better known as an educational center than as a commercial center and predicted a useful and nobletfuture for the city if the schools of art and learning main-tamed the high standard at which they as-spired The lecture received the closest attention and at'its conclusion upon motion of Judge John Lea a vote of thanks was given to Gen Thruston by the audience with acclamation On the rostrum were a crayon portrait by Mrs Lewis a study in oil Of "The Roman Fighter" and a flower study in water colors both by Mrs Conly and two oil

President Of the Aseociation then read a review of the year's work as follows: "It is cause congratulation that we have just heard from our Treasurer that we close our fiscal year free of (lot with a fair balance in the treasury We need however about 1501 in additional subscriptions besides those airady pledged to enable us to close the year 1887 without incurring debt Our membership is about the came as last year While some members have dropped out of the ranks new ones have been elected to fill the breach so we still average a membership of something over 200 The Association Lyceum suspended its meetings during the year but the class in elocution under the direction of Prot A Merrill has taken Its place Its members show development in elocutionary powers 1 The average attendance at our reading room compares very favorably with that of last year when we take into consideration that the Howard Library and reading room has for some time been open to the public The necessities of our library are great We shall have a regular fund for the purchase of new works and rebinding of those that are beginning to wear out The crowded condition of our shelves prevents the proper classification and fair display of the volumes upoa them We note a moderate degree of success in securing einployment for young men We I need the cordial co-operation of our flees men to enable us to do much practical work in this direction There has been but little that the Ladies' Auxiliary could do for us during the year The ladies hope to be of great service in 1 helping to furnish our new building A boarding-house register is kept at the Association rooms which has proven very acceptable to strangers in enabling them to secure suitable boarding-houses Our Association observed the special services of the week of prayer for young men last November with the assistance of our pastors resulting in one or more conversions and the quickening of the members into renewed zeal and activity We lately had With us Mr Harold Sayies who cooducied evangelistic meetings for a week Twenty-nine young men and eleven boys expressed interest in their spiritual welfare during the meetings Their names were given to the pastors Some of them have united with the Church and others will probably follow their example Several attend the meetings of the Association and some will likely become members Too much stress cannot be laid upon the importance of the Intermediate Training Class known as the Earnest Workers' Class) the Senior Training Class and the men's Gospel meeting The weekly gatherings for the practical study of the word of God that alone is able to make us wise unto salvation and to thoroughly furnish us unto every good work is making strong brave intelligent Christians out of our young men Dom thirty to fifty young men come together every Saturday night for song prayer and gospel talks Earnest workers go out upon the streets and by word of mouth and printed invitations invite their comrades strangers and others to the meeting A band of singers stand at the street entrance and by their music arrest the passer-by and invite him to the Association rooms These faithful efforts are fruitful in results and uncounted young men are savedbacksliders reclaimed and Christians quickened We rejoice in the prosperity of omit Boys' Branch God has certainly set his seal upon this department of our work Through its influence at least seven boys have professed faith in Christ during the year and united with the church Its members are being developed for Association work and we note with much pleasure that we have to-night received five of them as active Members of the parent Association Last but not least we desire to draw attention to our new building One year ago even the lot for the building was a dim dream of the future Now we can state that the lot is bought and nearly all paid for ground has been broken' and excavating for the new building begun and the Building Committee will soon Inaugurate a vigorous canvass to secure additional subscriptions And in conclusion let us hope that when another year has passed and we meet together In annual session again we will come with prida and gratitude in the beautiful auditorium of our new building Five directors to serve the Association for the ensuing two years were elected
