POUaMKEUPSIE S£MI.W£jBiB.LY EACFLii NOVEMBEB 30, 1889. T H A N K S G IV I N G DAY. Its O b s e r v a n c e In th i s C ity. There was t genersl observance of Thanksgiving Day in Poughkeepsie. The weather started in badly early in the morn ing, or rather the bad weather of the night previo«3 continued, but before noon the clouds broke away and the balance of ftie day was fair and the weather much colder as night came on. The religious obser vance of the day was all that could be de sired, the union services especially being largely attended. AT THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. There was a large attendance at the Presbyterian Church, and the exercises were of unusual interest. The platform was heaped with fruits and vegetables, sugges-' tive of the harvest, long ears of corn hung from the lamps on either side, and a vase of crysanthemuns stood on the desk. The lervice opened with an anthem, ‘ 0,comc, let us sing unto the Lord,^’ by Tours, which was sung with fine effect by the choir, assisted by Mr. Valentine. Jlnvoca- tion, reading of the proclamations and an extract from Longfellow’s “ Ship of State,' by Prof. Winne, followed; then singing, responsive reading of the Psalms, prayer by the pastor and another anthem, “ Praise ye the Father,” by Gounod. An original hymn by Rev. Dr. Wheeler was alsoisung, and the sermon was by Rev. Dr. B. L. Allen. His text was the exclamation of David “God hath not dealt so with any nation.” It was applied by the Psalmist to ancient Israel, nation called of God for an especial mis sion—to preserve the knowledge of his being and benevolence, and the speaker applied it also t® our own nation, which |ie believed was hkewise set apart by aq especial calling of divine Pfovidehce, for the uplifting of all peoples and the evange lization of the world. The sermon wai an eloquent and appropriate sketch of the circumstances ofjhisiory which ha vemade America what it is, and in conclusion drew the lesson that high opportunities and privileges bring with them also re sponsibilities. Ancient Israel, after en joying the peculiar favor of God for cen turies, was finally rejected, her nationali ty overthrown and her people dispersed because she did not fulfill the mission con fided to her, but went astray after other gods, And so America may hope to con tinue in prosperity and peace and pro gresi, only as she makes use of the mighty agencies placed in her hands for the bene fit of the whole world. A prayer was then read by the pastor and congregation responsively, the hymn *‘God bless our native land” was sung, and the service closed with the benedic- tien. The offertory was for the benefit of the Young Women’s Christian A s s o c iation . AT WASSrNeTON ST, M. C, CHURCH. The union Thanksgiving service at the Washington St. Methodist Church was well attended and the -eervicea were of more than usual interest. After t them by the choir. Rev. Dr. Hatfield, the pastor, made brief introductory remarks, and among other things said that Thanks giving Day should be a day of joy and gladness, and a programme bad been ar ranged which he was sure would suit the intellectual, moral and spiritual tastes of all. Rev. Mr. Hannaburgh then read the scriptures. Rev. Dr. Yan Gleson offered a most appropriate and comprehensive prayer, and addresses were delivered by Rev. Wayland Spalding and Rev. Ran som Harvey. Mr. Spalding spoke of the origin of the festival we celebrate, and paid a glowing tribute to the memory of the Pilgrim Fath ers and discovered -in their gratitude amid privation, ^hardships and meagre harvests an example for the people of our favored land. Mr. Harvey alluded to the common mercies and blessings of life, and said be cause they were so common we were prone to overlook their value and the source from whence they come. The fact that we are a missionary nation, and that our influence is being felt in all parts of the earth, in shaping human government, as in Brazil, should occasion gratitude, and awaken us to a sense of our duty and re sponsibility. Rev. Dr. Gregory, who was to have ta ken part in the service, was unavoidably detained. A solo by Mrs. McClelland was finely rendered. A liberal collection was taken for the Young Women’s Christian Asso- ^Jlation, after which “My Country 'tie of Thee” was heartily sung by the congre gation, and the benediction was pronounc ed by Rev. Dr. Travis, presiding elder. The music which was under the direc tion of Mr. Chas. H. Hickok was all that could have been desired, and the whole service well calculated to inspire gratitude in the hearts of all present. AT ST PETER’S. Thanksgiving Day was^celebrated in St. Peter’s Church by two sacred services the first at 7 and the second at 9 o’plock. Large congregations attended, as is usual in this church on such occasions. The sermon recalled the many special reasons for gratitude to the great Giver of all bounties, with which as a part of the nation, our community is bleared. First of all, the natural gift of liie, which is wonderfully enhanced by the inestimable . blessings of civil end religious liberty* With these we enjoy such secure peace as is not disturbed even by the fear or dan ger of war. This happy condition of things, united with the general prosperity which everywhere rewards thrlf^j and temperate living, ought to occasion a grateful recognition of the care and guar dianship so manifest in the designs of the Supreme Ruler. UHfON o r KPISCOPALIAiri . The congregations of all three Episco pal Churckflg united at the Church of the Holy Comforter in the morning. The altar and font were handsomely decorated with floweri. The church was well filled and the exercises were of a very impres sive character, beginning with the regular morming service, followed by Holy Com munion, and then Rev. Mr. Graham, of St. Paul’a Church, preached a n . able Thanksgiving sermon. The offerings of the day go for missions in Dutchess Co. AT ST. MARY’S. There were two masses at St. Mary’s Church, the first at seven and the second at half-past eight o’clock. Father Mur ray officiated at the first and Father Earley at the second. The congregations were large. The sermons were of the usual impressive character, thanks being return ed for the bounties bestowed upon us dur ing the past year. - There was plenty of amusement in the afternoon and evening, and the people flocked to the various places in large num bers. CANTON BILKS FAIR. Among the different entertainments was fhejopening of the fair of the Canton Dilks in the Casino Rink. As you enter the room a dazzling spectacle meets the eyed. At the end of the rink two large set pieces of scenery strike the eye. One is a picture of the JSew York ana Harlem R. R. Depot, and the other the Grand Central Depot, New York. As you turn to your right the first person to meet is B. J. Bneas, of New York. He is making and selling pop corn cakes. He was at our cjunty fair. Next to him is a fish pond, from which you catch pn a h o o | and line anything ifom a penny toy up to a twenty-five cent ^article. Beside this is a large crayon portrait of Dewitt C. Lang- don,pasf grand master,in an elegant frame. This was presented to the Dilks by C. H Gallup, and the person who holds the lucky number will be given the frame, and a crayon portrait of the holder will be put in it by Mr. Gallup. There is another fish pond, and acrosshhe room from It is a eountry inn, where so'da water is sold Then there is an art gallery, fortune teller’s booth, restaurant, confectionery stand and fancy work stand. There is a large ‘Graphic” gas burner to be given away to the person holding the lucky oumber, and the large bronze lamp and images. On a stand is a handsome model of a three- deck side-wheel steamboat, fitted up beau- tifaily, including a copper boiler and an engine running, and is named the “Bridge City.” It was made by PMlllp Rifen burgh, and is a beauty. The rink was full of people day and evening, and Scofield’s orchestra made every one. happy, Bennett and Moulton’s opera' troupe at tended the fair after their performance in the evening. AT THE OiPBRA HOUSE. The matinee at the Opera House was not largely ' attended. The opera was “The Chimes of Normandy,” and it was very handsomely rendered. In the even ing the audience was a large one, the play presented being Fatinitza, and the leading characters were rapturously applauded. The chorus was particularly good both af ternoon and evening, and Miss Irene Mur phy’s singing was very enjoyable. Other amusements included target prac tice by the Fifteenth Separate Company at the rifle range, a basket party by the ladies of St. Mary’s Church at the Ar mory, and numerous social gatherings about town in the evening. A BtriAe A v e rt-ea. The big strike threatened among the employees of the New York Central Rail road has been averted. President Depew, General Superintendent Toucey and Mas ter Mechanic Buchanan have been in con sultation for several days with the griev- ence committees from the Knights of La bor and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. The men complained they were compelled to work sometimes 50 hours on a trip which should only take 30 hours; on account of blockade of freight trains. They got no compensation for the extra work. .The company has ■ consented to pay the men 30 cents an hour for every hour they work more than 34 hours on a round trip. The men at first denaanded thirty-five cents, but compromised on thirty. The men were to meet the officers of the com pany on Wednesday to sign an agreement which Mr. Depew will submit to them. The Knights of Labor and the Brother hood are at odds as to which should have its organization mentioned in the agree ment. If it had not been for this the trouble would have been adjusted several days ago. The knights want all the credit, while the brotherhood insist that both should be mentioned. Trains Detained. There was an exlensive land slide the Hudson River Railroad between mid- niglit of Wednesday and daylight of Thursday. It occurred a short distance south of Montrose Station, and was over fifty feet in length and three or four feet deep, covering both tracks. The mail and newspaper train, due here from New York at 6:80 a m , was about two hours and a half behind time, having been com pelled to wait at the break that length of lime while one track was being cleared. Other trains were more or less behind un til afternoon. D U T C H E S S A N D U L S T E R FABM - E B 8 ’ CLUB. The Van Allen cotton mills at Stuyve- sanl Falls are in full blast and doing an extensive business. About 300 hands are employed. , The Dutchess and Ulster Farmers' Club held a meeting in the parlors of the Young Men’s Christian Association Tuesday. In the absence of the president, Edgar Knapp, and of the secretary, E. Wright Vail, the meeting was called to order about half past ten o’c l o ^ by Mr. Walter F. Taber, of Poughkeepsie, and he was by motion chosen chairman of the meeting. * The first aubjeat announced for discus Sion was “Farm Garden Vegetables,” and It was opened by Mr. James Soan, of Poughkeepsie. Mr. Sloan’s address was chiefly taken up with an enumeration of the principal vegetables raised in the gar den, and a description of a garden. His list embraced the following kinds: Aspar agus, which he said ought to be on every table; beans, and he mentioned the Early Mohawk, the Black Wax, the Refugee and the Limas as desirable varieties; beets, Eclipse, Egyptian, Old Black Turnip; cab bage, Jersey Wakefield, Fiat Dutch; car rots; celery; cucumbers, the Early White Spine; sweet corn; lettuce; melons; onions; parsley; parsnips; potatoes; peppers; rhu barb; radishes, the White Summer Turnip; squash; spinach; tomatoes; turnips; sage; summer savory. The speaker then de scribed the farm garden, showed how it ought to be prepared, and bow laid out. He would have It of ample dimensions, with a broad strip of grass on the outer side, extending all around the plot. This strip of grass could be easily mowed. Mr, Sloan said that In planting Lima btans only place three in a hill, and put the seed with the eye down. The subject was discussed by several scntlemeii Chairffian Tabor recom mended the Early Red Globe onion as a profitable variety. He thought the Corey variety of corn was the best for- the mar ket, and in squash he favored the Essex Hybrid. In tomatoes he had unusual sue cess with the Mikado. The subject changed to fertilizers. Mr. Sloan recommended the free use of ashes with plenty of manure. He said it you want sweet corn, or melons, or strawber ries, use these freely. Mr John Hammond, of Washington, spoke of Canada ashes, and its destructive aature, especially to leather, and as injuri ous to the hands Mr. Edward Sherriger, of Clinton, said that he had always used ashes with what he thought good results; but he thought at one time to try home ashes and the Canada, in order to ascertain the lelative value of the two, and he didn’t obtain any results from either. His experience in this particular was an exception to that of oihera. Secretary Vail thought whether especial results are obtained from the use of ashes depends upon whether the soil is in need of ashes or potash. He thought that if Mr. Sherriger’s land had been in need of the elements contained in that kind of fer- tilixer, the result would have been appar ent in the crop He had used ashes with good results, and had also obtained benefit from using coal ashes on dry knolls. Rev. Dr Brown, referring to Lima beans, said that his gardener greases the bean by putting it in melted lard or tallow before planting. He said it took a little longer to come up, but it was sure to sprout. The chairman selected the following gentlemen as a committee to choose sub jects to be discussed at and to fix a time for holding the next meeting: Edward Sherrlger, Albert Knapp, Edgar String- ham, George Lamoree. The afternoon session was called to or der about half-past 1 o’clock. The committee chosen to appoint a time for the next meeting, and selecting sub jects for discussion reported Tuesday, January 7lh, as the time, and the follow lag as the subjects to be discussed* 1, “Our Roads; the best method of working.” By J N Lewis, of Red Hook. 3. “Can we make stock growing profit able. and if so what kind; also diseases of cattle.” Timothy Herrick, of Staats- burgh. The first subject for discussion was “Chemical Fertilizers versus Stable Ma nure.” The subject was presented by Mr, Walter F. Tabor, of Poughkeepsie, in a well-considered, practical address, in which he spoke of feeding the ground and the plant when they most need it. The farmer should take the greatest care in giving the land proper nourish ment. One of the principal things about the cultivation of the land is the prepara tion of the soil. It needs to be thorough ly pulverized. The thorough preparation of the soil is like the addition of so much manure, because it puts the soil in the condition for the better and easier reception of the fer tilizing foods. One of the chief causes of failure of a crop is because the land Is not in fit condition The finer the soil has been pulverized the more readily it absorbs axd retains moisture, and the harder the soil the more quickly it dries. Having thoroughly presented the subject of preparation, he showed the relative val ue of commercial and home fertilizers, and he showed the superiority of the former over the latter for many purposes, particu larly on fruit, vines and potatoes. To a certain point in the growth of the vine it is well to use manure, but when It is de sirable to make less wood, and to increase the quality and flavor of the fruit, com mercial fertilizer should be used. In wheat, however, manure is best. Mr. Cay wood, of Marlborough, said he used both the commercial and the home fertilizer with good results. He thought the one could not replace the oth er. Mr. D. S. Baright; referring to ashes as a fertilizer, said that article, contained on ly five per cent of potash in that shape. He thought, however, that ashes were valuable in heavy or clay soil as a disin tegrator. Mr. Vail said it was hia practice to make all the home manure he could and make only the best. When glhe home supply is exhausted, he has recourse to commercial fertilizer. He never puts his manure un der the ground, but scatters it over the surface. Mr. Hart, on] the contrary,^iobtained good results by plowing manure uni^r. and he was corroborated by Mr. Halstead. Rev. Dr. Brown also spoke on the sub ject and for a time a desultory discussion was carried on. Mr. Wm. P. Leggett,'of Salt Point, the well known poultry breeder, delivered valuable address on the subject of “Poul try,” gave valuable hints about the vari ous breeds for different purposes, about the food and^its preparation, and the gen eral care of' fowls. Chicks and fowls ought to be kept separate. Some fail fowl raisers because they do not feed properly and at the proper time. He would feed no more than the fowls read I ly eat up clean. The address was quite interesting, showing a complete know! edge of the subject. The topic was dis cussed by various gentlemen present. Mr. J. J. DlHon, editor of the Orange County Farmer, was present, and he ad dressed the meeting on the condition of farms. He said that it was desirable that the next census should contain statistics of the farms that are mortgaged; how many occupants of farms own them, etc. There is no provision made in the census law for obtaining these statistics, and as it will (Cause an extra expense, Congress is asked to make a special appropriation for that purpose, and he ,propQ§§d a resolution to the effect that Congress be requested to provide for the obtaining of the above in formation by the next cenaui. The resolu tion was passed. After which the meeting adjourned. V A S 8 A H COL l E AE Q-ET8 T H E $ 20 , 000 . J o h n G u y V ^ s s a r's S u b s c rip tio n . ON T H E PROM E N ADE. “I know that the common council has the final say as to who shall be chief en gineer of the fire department,” said a tax payer, “but they ought to have the Jlnt and final say. I don’t believe that the firemen ought to have anything at all to say about the matter; for the reason that the mere question of who shall be chief is not the only question considered by them. They have their deals and scheme and corrupt bargainings, the same as poli ticians, which is not right. A representa tive citizen ought to be chief of the fire department—a tax payer, a man of brains and executive ability. I am a fireman, and I know what I am talking about. I favor a radical change in the system of appointing a chief engineer, so that in the end the city will be benefiited.” “There is a hurrying of freight down the river now,” said an old boatman. “Everybody Is getting afraid of a sudden closing of navigation at Albany, in which case some of the boats will be frozen in, and that will make considerable expense. Here we are close to the first of Decem ber, and the mercury is liable to drop to a point below freezing any day. For the last two or three days poultry has been go ing into the New York market by the tons. There is also a great rush of lumber, lime and cement down the river just now. believe there Is going to be an early clos ing of navigation,” Said a Fishkill Landing man who was in town on Monday, “ The present time table on the Hudson River Railroad works badly for way travel south of Poughkeep sie. Formerly we could come to town at 1:80 p. m. and have about two hours and a half to do business in and get back be fore supper. Now if we arrive here at 3 p. m. we have only an hour and a half. This makes us get here at 10 a. m , losing all the forenoon at home. When the afternoon way train going south left here at 3:57 p. m. we liked it. I wish it would be changed back to the old time.” “ Have you noticed the frequency of di vorce cases in Judge Baraard’s court?’ said a lawyer to an Eagle representative. “Hardly a week passes but one or more couples are separated for life or absolute ly divorced. Perhaps more get bills of separation than are divorced; but it is true that both cases are becoming very frequent. I can’t account for it. Hasty m arriagea often end in separation because first of all, incompatablllty of temper. Of course absolute divorce cannot be obtained in this state except adultery is proven; but bills of separation are nearly the same as bills of absolute divorce—not much differ ence ” _______ ________ An Excellent Preparation. C larendon , O rleans C o ., N, Y. } April 3d, 1889. J Dr. J. A. Deane & Co , Catakill, N. Y. ; Being in Cortland N. Y., last January, and suffering from indigestion, bloating of stomach and bowels, as I had been more or less for several years, finding only temporary relief from doctors’ prescrip tions, I stepped into a drug store and asked the druggist if he had anything he could recommend for my trouble. He handed out a bottle of your Dyspepsia Pills and. be believed they would help me. I took one bottle, sent for tw© more, and have finished them And now I can say they have done me more good than anything I have ever taken—in fact, feel as though I could not do without them ; therefore I had better write direct to you I speke to Mr Geo. Copeland, one of our mer chants. druggist and grocery dealers in this place for many years, and a most honorable man, about sending for a pack age of two dozen bottles of the,pills. He gave me liberty to use his name and that he would take two dozen bottles if I chose to write you an order, etc. w8m3417 Rev. F. B. Peck. The suit of Vassar College against the estate of John Guy Vassar came before Judge Barnard on Wednesday. Mr. Vas sar signed, in hia life time, the following: I hereby promise in consideration of the benefits to Vassar College to give the sum set opposite my name towards $100,- 000 to be used for the educational fund My payment to be contingent on the sub scription of the entire amount of $100 000. Signed J ohn G u t V a s s a r , $20,000. Several others subscribed in various amounts, and Vassar College, claiming that the whole $100,000 has been sub scribed, asks for the $30,000 subscribed by Mr. Vassar. The executors don’t deny the signing by Mr. Vassar, but claim it is not a bind ing legal obligation against the estate, and therefore they have no right to pay It. Robert E, Taylor, secretary of Vassar College trustees, testified as legal custo dian of the records of the meetings. He said the records show a meeting at which John Guy Vassar was present, and put in evidence a refolution adopted at that meeting. Willard L. Dean, trustee and treasurer of Vassar College, testified he was at the meeting alluded to. After the presenta tion of the resolution, there was silence for some lime, and then Mr. John Guy Vassar urged the adoption of the resolu tion, which provided for the raising of $100,000 for the productive fund of the college. The resolution was then adopt ed, after which President Taylor had a paper drawn up and Mr. Vassar signed it. The paper referred to is printed above. Mr. Vassar said to President Taylor af ter signing his name: “Now sir, go ahead; you have got to start to raise the $ 100 , 000 .” Before the passage of the rosolution Mr. Thompson, one of the trustees said: “If you will start this, then I will give the last $80 000.” Then John Gay Vassar said: “and I will give the first $20,000. Afterwards John Guy Vassar said to witness many times, including limes in the sick room: “How are you getting along with the raising of the money? Tell Dr, Taylor he must go in. person to see men; they won’t come to him.” Witness said Dr. Taylor had expended abont $175 or $200 In traveling to get sub scriptions, and witness now holds $80,000 of the fund which, has been paid into his hands. The last time witness saw M j . Vassar in Aug.. 1888, the latter requested Dr. Taylor to go and see a man at the 5th Avenue Hotel Mr. Vassar was urgent all the time The $80,000 paid witness was paid by subscribersj— Mr. Rockefeller $80,000, Mr, Thompson $20,000, E. S. Atwater $1,000. Other subscribers were Catha rine M. Buckingham, C. M. Buckingham, He.nry L. Young, etc. A portion of the $80,000 was subscribed after Mr. Vassar’s death, $73,000 was subscribed before he died. At least f 5,- 000 of the subscriptions were paid before Mr. Vassar died. James M. Taylor, president of Vassar College, testified he had repeated inter views with Mr. Vassar after the latter had signed the subscription and Mr. Vassar always asked him how he was getting along with the subscription, and always urged upon him. t© go on and complete the fund, saying he had on another occasion made a similar offer, but no effort was made to meet it. Such in- terfiews occurred almost up to the time of Mr. Vassar’s death. On two occa sions, in the summer of 1888, once his piazza and once in his sick room he spoke earnestly of the great needs of the college, etc. Witness always reported subscriptions to Mr. Vassar. Jnst pre vious to Mr. Vassar’s death, the subscrip tion stood at $71,000 with kis. Mr. Vassar died Oct. 26. 1888. As soon as the subscriptions were well started wit ness recommended to the trustees increas es in salaries, as it had been recommended that the interest in the subscriptions snould go toward* the increase of salaries of teachers, not professionals, and they have been so Increased. Witness said he can produce the subscription list which makes up the $100,000. He had a copy of it made. /, Thirty names were obtained and be tween $30,000 and $89,000 were subscrib ed after Mr. Vassar’s death. Nobody urg ed the subscriptions as did Mr. Vassar. Some of the other trustees subscribed and others did not. Witness urged all the trustees to do their utmost to raise the fund of $100,000. Twenty-one out of the twenty-nine trus tees of the college were present when Mr. Vaasar subscribed the $30,000. Nine com pose a quorum. Witness got no urgency 10 raise the fund from non-subscribing trus tees. This concluded all the evidence. Judge Nelson moved to dismiss the com plaint, whieh motion was denied. Judge Barnard saying, “1 think the case is made out; that he ought to pay. He bound him self the first time so he could not get out The college needed the money; a resolu tion was adopted, salaries were raised, the promise was made, and I think he ought An argument followed on both aides, when the court said : This would be most aatrocious, getting all these subscriptions in by what he did; a man was sent out to get subscriptions in; went all over the stale with a club, and now he ought to pay. As^o interest, it should begin alter the payment of the last subscription. Interest run after the time the thing is due, as between Mr. Tassar and the college. R- Taylor and Cyrus Swan appeared for the college, and H A. Nelson and Thompson & Lown for the executors of John Guy Vassar. Clairvoyant Examinations Free.
