At thn end of th feast K. H. Fisher,

welcomed President Lynch to tho city and
tho other guests to tho hall. Ho Introduced
Iturle J. Qnlnhy, who responded to tho
toast, "Women In the Labor Movement,
paying particular attention to the work of
the Women s auxiliary to the Typographical

Mrs. D. O. Craighead, on honalf of the

when tho International union would be
forced to recognlzo and lssuo chnrtcrs to

Samuel Rces, the oldest employing
printer In Omaha, spoko Informally on
"Tho Employing Printer." He told of tho
work of the old-tlmo typo, who worked as
a Journeyman until he was able to get hold
of nn office and then It was sink or swim.
He believed thnt the unions were n good
thing, but believed that the employer and
employes should come together oftcner to
talk over matters. He held his hearers
while he told of some of his experiences In
the west.
W. M. Maupln read a letter of regret
from R. L. Metcalfe. In which tho writer

Hon. E. Rosewnter was presented by
President Fisher ns an employer who had
always stood for the Interests of the labor
ing men. He was greeted with cheers.
He paid tribute to the worklngmen. He
said he was one of the organizers of tho
first telegraphers' union in tho country,
und was connected with It until he estab
lished himself In the newspnper business.
"The prosperity of the whole world," said
he, "depends upon the prosperity of the
wageworkr, Such organizations as tho
Typographical union are necessary for th-i
workers to resist successfully the encroach
ments of capital." While he hnd advocated
the theory .of arbitration, he did not think
thnt strikes were entirely a thing of the
past.
"Capital," he continued, "Is crystallized
labor. The man hns the strength of 100
men who has the capital to hire 100 men."

The speaker congratulated the members
of the union on the harmony which pre
vailed In the city, and believed that the
unions would stand together In times of
trouble. He agreed with the speaker who
said that the unions had done more for
personal liberty than political parties, but
the members of tho unions should keep the
political parties clean and should strive
for a change In laws so that representa
tives can bo withdrawn when they cense to
represent their constituents.
T. F. Sturgcss spoko on "Our Guests."
He referred to the fact that in October
would bo celebrated the twentieth anniver
sary of Omahn union, and pointed out the

President Lynch was greeted with an

"Tho International Typographical Union,"
Mr. Lynch is a pleasant-spoken gentleman
who has made many friends during his short
visit, and be Impresses the members of No,

"Strikes never occur where conference
can be held," he said. "I would never sur
render the right to strike, but I would be
one to keep It In the background until
every other effort has failed. There Is a
vast field ahead for the Typographical
union, Any organization which stands still
will fall. Progressive humanity Is never

for better things."
After the banquet the party adjourned

Mr. Sothcrn has added another to a long
line of Hamlets standing In tho templo
of Thespls. Alpno, his creation Is good
to look upon, and It Is qulto within reason
to say that It will suffer lltllp when
viewed In connection with those others
who have gono before. Ills effort ha.a tho
certain merit of sincerity, and painstaking
effort goes far to mako acceptable tho work
of the actor. Wo are probably mo6t fa
miliar with "Hamlet" of tho Shakespearean
plays. It has furnUhed us wtth more ex
pressions for current uso In conversation
tban any other of tho Immortal William's
works. All through tho evening we hear
again tho well known words of some lino
or couplet, and we naturally compare tho
meaning slvcn them by the actor with our
own conception of tho thought Intended.
For this very reason. If for no other. It.
"Hamlet" n most difficult play to present
to the satisfaction of the discriminating
people It attracts to tho theater. The
masterpiece of tho poet who still sits at
tho head of tho list, has ever been a favor
ite vehicle for the .exploitation of nn actor's
ambition, nnd knowing how long n line of
predecessors he must encounter In tho
momory of the public tho actor who as
sumes the part of Hamlet must cither ho
decidedly In earnest'or Inordinately vain.
Mr, Sothern Is not vain. He has won his
way by bard tork, on the stage. It Is not
so very long slice M came to Omahn as
"Lord Chumley,"' H!a art even In that
was a pleasing' revelatlo.i. During the few
years that, liavo rpas,sed since, then Mr.
Sothern has been n frequent visitor horo
with other plays "Lady Ursula's Adven
ture." "Captain Lctterblnlr" nnd the like
nnd his growth and development In art have
thus bocn watched by people who feel a
friendly Interest In him. His step from
tho romantic to' the classic will be re
gretted by mnny, because ho was so thor
oughly enjoyable In the lighter characters
he portrayed for us. Yet these considera
tions should have no weight In mnklng up
Judgment on his effort nt a more serious
undertaking. To his credit be It said, Mr.
Sothern has given us n Hamlet wo can
understand, with whom we can In n meas
ure sympathize. Ho can hardly be said to
have created a new Hamlet, nor can ho be
charged with Imitating nn old. He reads
his lines with force nnd Intelligence, giving
n distinct meaning to all the .subtloties of
expression the master wove Into the beauti
ful fubrlc of his greatest creation. Some
fuult may be found with Mr. Sothern's dic
tion at timesIndeed, he occasionally seems
to forget the advice the prince of Den
mark gave tho players ubout rnntlnghuL
for this he may .be excused, for he" seems
to actually realize tho torrent of passion
that wrecked that noble-mind. - His-is not
tho mad Hamlut, but rather the sane nnd
crafty, and his conception of the oh(trictcr,
like his understanding of tho lines, is ex
pressed vigorously and clearly, so that he
commands the close attention nnd warm
applause of even those who have decided
that "Hamlet" was written to be read and
not to be acted.
Of the supporting rompany the bills tell
us It was carefully selected. For once at
least tho bills oro truthful. So generally
well chosen are tho people to whom the
Other parts of the play are assigned It
would be unfair to call them minor parts
nnd so excellent is the result that It would
be Invidious to single out for praise any
one of those who helped to make Up n
most acceptable whnlo. Seldom Indeed Is
any piece given such thorough, capnhle peo
ple to enact It, nctors and actresses who
appreciate what Is expected of them and
realize that expectation so completely. The
play hns been most appropriately clothed.
Much recent research at Elslnore has given
many newer and undoubtedly more arcurato
Ideas ns to the costumes and surroundings
of the day of Claudius and Gertrude and
Hamlet and Ophelia, and Mr. Sothern hub
taken advantage of these, to the manifest
enhancement of his preseut production.
"Hamlet" w be given nt n mntlnee this
afternoon, and again tonight.

PHILADELPHIA, May 'J4. Tho Presby
terian general assembly, by a vote which
showed conclusively that a revision of the
confession of faith Is desired by the church,
todny defeated the nmcndmenl dismissing
the whole nubject offered yesterday by Rev.
George D. tinker of Philadelphia. The as
sembly decided by nn overwhelming major
ity to contlmio consideration of the great
question after two days' debate, during
which lending exponents of the Presbyter
ian doctrine throughout the country thor
oughly analyzed the creed and gave their
reasons for their positions regarding the'
subject.
At the opening of the afternoon session
the assembly decided to vote on the amend
ment nt 1:30 o'clock and speeches were lim
ited to ten minutes. The time was ex
tended In order to give a number of com
missioners who wished lu be heard, nn
opportunity nt speaking. Tho principal ad
dresses of the day were made by Rev. Dr.
John D. DeWltl in the morning and Row
CharlcH A. Dickey, closing tho debate. Dr.
DcWItt favored dismissal, ileclnrlug that
there might be slight divergence of opinion
on tho confuHslon, the church was united
on the word of God.
Dr. Dickey' took n derided stand against
dismissal, lie said that its the question
of revision was not before the nsrcmbly. no

that arrangements had been completed for.

finished business of yesterday.
Rev. Dr. David S. Kennedy of Allegheny
Pn.. yielded the floor to Judge K. W. C.
Humphrey of Louisville, who signed the
minority report with Dr. McKlbbcn.
Dr. Kennedy followed with n forceful nr-
gument against revision. The way to break
down the confession, flnnlly, ho tald, Is to
go on making holes in it. "Wc stand united
on tho confession," continued Dr. Kennedy.
"It Is constructed from beginning to end to
bo used for HClentiHe uurpoucs. It is tho
constitution of our church organisation
We arc not considering a popular creed,
but tho fundamental principle of the organ

constitution, but Is not the word of God
And wo are not discussing tho word of God.
If this question Is voted down by this as
scmbly It will come to the front again until
wo give the church what It demands.
Dr. John DoWItt of Princeton university
was next recognized by the moderator.
There was a disposition by somo of tho
commissioners to close tho debate. As Dr.
DoWItt took tho platform thero were cries
of "Question!" Tho Princeton professor
paid a trlbuto to the high chnractcr of the
debate, which has thus far been entirely
free from acrimony and sarcasm.
Dr. DcWItt said he belonged to what is
knwn ns tho fourth party, which em
phaslz'a "our noble declaratory statement,
which Is now In our possession, and which
will solve the entire question,"
President .1. 1). Moffnt of Washington and
Jcffersou university said ho belonged, like
Dr. DeWItt, to (ho fourth party, yet he'
wus opposed to dismissing the cntlro mat
ter. He advocated the acceptance of recom
mcncjatlon R, and until tho committee
mqke? Its report In ncCordanco to that
rccommqndnllon he did not know whero ho
Rtood. Tho recommendation, he said, asks
that' another ronuntttee bo appointed nnd,
thnt it bo instructed to prepare a Drier
pummary of the reformed faith. It would
not be fair, he said, to the ICO presbyterleB
who had asked for Bomo relief, If the sub
ject was dismissed by the ussembly.

subject, be taken lit 4i30 o'clock, nud that
speeches be limited to ten minutes. The
motion carried.
General Louh Wugner of this city spoke
ngnlnst revision, He thought it unwise to
occupy the time and disturb the pcaco of
the church by matters which did not af
fect tho vitality of the faith.
Dr. W. H. Roberts, stntc.it clerk, declared
himself In favor of n declaratory statement.
He said: "I believe all parties can be
united, Wb would be wlso to follow tho
Scotch churches In what they havo done.
The revlulon committee did nt one of their
meetings decide to recommend n declara
tory act ns .the best means of settling this
question, but Uter agreed not to Include
this recommendation In their report. The
bible is our biipreme rule and Ftnndnrd of
faith. It seems very largely to have been
overlooked during this dlbctiNulou. The
whole bible 13 Irj our confession nnd when
you ml. so the lssuo on the confession you
must go back to scripture nnd compare
scrlpturo with scripture. I hope we shall
have a declaratory act."
At the suggestion of Dr. Dickey u motion
was carried extending the time for debnte
n half-hour, and brief addresses were mndo
by Dr. Dlnsmore. Rev. Dr. J. McCarroll.

Dr. Dickey closed tho debate with an
argummt, and his eloquent nppeal to the
belief In elect Infnnts brought forth n burst
of applause from the commissioners.
"Thn qucbtlon of tho revision Is not be
fore the assembly." said Dr. Dickey, "Is
this general assembly wl.lllng to follow the
example of the lust nssombly and give n
llttl'o time to finding out if a change Is ro
quired In th' question of faith. That Is
what we are considering. We must not
dismiss n question which has occupied the
attention of tho church for years. It Is an
Insult In the Intelligence of the Presbyter
Ian church to say wc have been frlghtenel
Into doing something.
"Noby Is trying to lead the church Into
a revolution or blind revision. Has the

This very confession came out of a de
termination and n demand for a change,
The clause piohlbltlng a man from marry

Is It more important whose sister a roan
should marry, or thnt Infants should be
sated? I believe that only elect Infant
are saved, but I want It written In the
confession that all Infants aro elect."
t the conclusion of Dr. Dickey's ad
dress Dr. Hewitt' called for n yea and nny
vote, but Moderator Mlnton ruled that n
rising vote would suffice. The question was
then laid before the assembly and the

L1TTLK ROCK. Ark . Mny 21. At to
night's session of the Southern PreativirU,
general assembly.' majority and minority re-
pons irom me special committee on the
"cle-t Infant" clnuse were submitted.
Judge S. P. Green of I'ort Worth, Texan,
presented h minority report, which rec
ommended that the following be sent down
to the presbyteries for their concurrence
Thnt section 3. chapter in of the con
fession uf faith lie amended by nddlltg the
words "Nothing In tills section hall be
understood ns holding or teaching the pos
sibility of the damnation of an Infant dying
In Infancy " Our church tines not hold, nor
never imp held such doctrines
The minority report wns rejected and the
majority report presented by Rev. F. II.
Deatty of Louisville. K- wns ndnnlril.
Tho majority report rescinds the order of
me last general assembly to print In every
edition of the confession of faith there
after an exnlnlMtorv fnntnnl rernnlliiff In
fnnts dying In Infnncy, but tho report states
mat mis senium Is in no way to be taken
ns modifying the answer made to the over
ture lu the Inst assemhly.
The report as adopted recommends that
no action be taken on the "elect Infant"
clause for the folowlng reasons:
First Because It Is unwise to inltlato
at thlH time the ngltntlnn of thin question
among the'people.
Second lleCitusc ho modification that does
not eliminate Kcrlpturnl Calvinism from this
'section of Urn confession will obviate tho
objection which conies from American
sources.
Thlrd-Recuso the Westminster confes
sion of fnlth is tho first great creed which
taugnt the salvation of lufnnts dying In
Infancy on truly scriptural grounds.
I'oiirth Because the confession of fnlth
III tills section does not teach the ilnmim.
tlon of nny Infant dying In Infancy, for the
reason that .the contrast made In It Is not
between elect nnd non-elect lnfnnm rivln
In Infancy, hut between elect persons who
nio m infancy, nnd elect persons who do
not die In Infancy.
r Ifth Because, while we have a well
grounded hope founded on scripture thnt nil
Infants dying Jn Infancy are saved, yet tho
confession of fnlth coes nn fur ih. ,.Hr,
tures Justify n positive credal statement
upon me subject.
