—«M—i H—NOTES .FROM GOTHAM. VARIOUS MATTERS IN THE CITY BY THE SEA. A New Club .Move Again.! *en«nthmal Preacher. — Nome Polllieal The Greater New York The Uloomei and the Hleyole Hprcial New York fnHter. Dr. Parkhurst lately remarked th-at the club was the most ingenious of rhe devil’s Inventions. But the club continues to grow in popularity with both sexes: The latest is Ihe newly organized Military and Naval Order of the United States, it Is to con list of commissioned officers of the army and navy of the United States, or the male descendants of the same, who fought in one of the four wars waged by the United Stales T'S pA?f'C- gw-cm M. ■ 0/■ y d - Cf?: -a. ■ I . ' •’ - I JO > A Club Meeting. agsfour foreign foe—the war of the Revolution, war of 1812. war with Tripoli and Mexican war; It might lock at first as if the order were likely to be a rival to the Grand Army, but really it is a purely pajJtetic organization, and most of the fought in the war of the rimMyon. It will soon erect a hand ome club hcuse. The officers of the order are: . Commander. David Banks; vice commander. James H. Morgan: judge advocate and acting secretary, Frank M. Avery; treasurer. Gen. Egbert L. Viele. U. S. V.: deputy secretary. Robert Webb Morgan; chaplain. the Rev. Dr. T. Stafford Browne. There are some indications that the sensational clergyman is beginning to lose his popularity. Dr. Parkhurst has just escaped a wigging by the New ’ York Presbytery, by a vote which plainly shows that he has many ene--1 mies among the more conservative of the Presbyterian brethren. Dr. Dixon has parted with his church, many members of which had grown tired of > his vituperative attacks upon pclitical > and clerical opponents from the pulpit. Dr. Talmage is preaching ai the Academy of Music to smaller audiences than w?ed to crowd the Tabernacle in Brooklyn. It is probable that Dr. .Dixon will try to found a free church in this city, but in this he rnns counter to Talmage, who also has that plan i in view. There is no love lost between ; these three popular preachers, and our city seems hardly big enough to hold them all. There is growing opposition among the more cultivated women of the city churches to the sensational preacher. “We have noticed.” said' a prominent lady to me a few days ago, ‘‘that, fe I ■■■ z< -? ; S ■■ A Mild Reproof. where the sensational preacher presides the men . gradually leave the church and soon the women are in 1 great, majority. The reason is. probably. thfit men hear enough of Strife, politics and sensation during the week and it is no wonder that they de not Care for the same diet on Sunday. It is also noticeable that, where the oldfashior.ed gospel is preached by able and scholarly men. U c congregations show a larger latt. rid uif'e of men than do the churches of the sensational pi Lieber?. So a y rd many of the clergymen are receiving quiet hint: from the rnore’aeim. women in the’ churches to leave politics and sensational topics ah no.” In regard to this statement. I hh..\ ■ found cut. by inquiry. that a majority o f noh-church-goers of my acquaintance state that their reason for not attending church is that the preaching is too sensational to suit them. Here is a hint for pastors of poorly patronized churches. We are certainly having a surteit of politics. Usually, after a politicut MiTnpaigh7 pa;fthfuT;irls ; where the result is decisive, matters quiet down after election.

dency as a good place to hide him In One of our local members of the Legislature, Senator Childs, has become s< Impressed by the sudden political greatness 0f our city that he has in troduced a bill to secure the rehnova) of the Stale Capitol here. This reminds me that the greatei New York bill has not yet materialized in the Legislature, while discus-, sion hf it has been quietly dropped by the local press. There are many conflicting interests to be reconciled between the two cities, and it would not surprise me |o see the whole matter go over for another year. • The time was sure to come when the bicycle women would get into trouble with tlje' law.

Matlhnw Arnold an<l < ai<linal New nuin. It. is interesting to remember that of. modern men of genius Matthew Arnold's favorite was John Henry Newman. Many will recall the noble and characteristic sentences which dpetf tfie lecture on Emerson; wherein, recalling the days when he was an undergraduate at Oxford. Arnold declares .“Voices were in the air there which haunt my memory still.'' "Happy the man who in that susceptible season of youth hears such voices! They are a possession to him for, ver.” Os those voices Newman's most deeply penetrated the heart of the impressionable student, and though Arnold afterward came to feel that in becoming a Roman Catholic. Newman had adopted ! 'for the doubts and -difficulties which 'beset men's minds today a solution j which, to speak frankly, is imposj sibfe.” he never ceased to admire in him the combination cf traits —-the mingle;! gentleness am! irony, lucidity and urbanity-wtfieli had captivated his boyish imagination, not to revere in him the inspjrer of his youth.
