Thomas nouncements, James An- Rev. Thomas James died at his home, No. 144 Tremont street, on Saturday, aged 87 years. Bora of slave parents and at a time when slavery prevailed in New York state, the life of Mr.

James had been an eventful one. He was a man of marked intelligence and ability and during the time that the question of slavery was the theme of national discussion he devoted his energies towards bettering the condition of his race. For more than fifty years Mr. James was one of the best known negroes in Western New York and his face has been familiar to two generations of Rochestarians. Mr.

James was born near Canajoharie in 1804, but was separated from his parents when 8 years old and passed from one owner to another until he was 17, often receiving rough usage at the hands of brutal masters. As a lad he showed unusual intelligence and aptitude and was considered desirable property when oilered for sale in the slave market at Amsterdam. In 1S22 young James esoaped from his master and following the recently surveyed line of the Erie canal, started for Canada, which had already become the objective point for ugative slaves. In later years Mr. James was wont to tell the story of his flight to liberty and his joy upon first setting foot on Canadian soil.

He crossed the Niasara river at ounerstown by night in a small boat. In the following year the fugitive came to Rochester where he was aided by sympathizing white friends and obtained em ployment in the canal warehouse. He first learnod to read in a Sunday-school which had been established for negroes. He soon after joined the African Methodist Church on Ely street and continued his studies for several years with the intention of entering the ministry. He was ordained by Bishop Rush in 1H33 and then formally adopted tbe name of Thomas James.

The present Zion Church on Favor street was established by Mr. Jones, who pur chused the lot in 1830 and soon after built a small church. Mr. Jones joined heartily in the movement, which had already obtained a strong hold throughout the North, and was one of the promoters of a series of meetings in this city which aroused vigorous opposition. Mr.

Jones spent the next year in holding anti-slavery meetings throughout estern Jew lork. In Its Mr. James became pastor of a new church in tivracuse where he remained three years. He was afterwards pastor successively of churches at Ithaca, Hag Har bor, New Bedford and Boston. In Boston Mr, James was a member of the famous anti-slavery vigilance committoe of which Wendell I'hillips and Theodore I'arker were the leaders and assisted in the fa mous rescue of Anthony Burns, the runaway slave.

During this time Mr. James contributed many articles to the press of Boston and other cities in behalf of the anti-slavery movement. He also lec tured frequently upon the same subject. He was the man who brought a suit against the state railway of Massachusetts which resulted in the abolition of ''Jim Crow cars, as tiot.e in whtcn netrroea were com pelled to ride, had been called. Mr.

James returned to Rochester in 1856. At the beginning of the war he received tbe appointment of superintendent of the refugee camp at Lexington, Kentucky, where ho remained until the close of the war. Dur ing the noxt ton years Mr. James was en F. -d in the work of the Freeduian's Aid Bureau, and was afterwards missionary preacher in Ohio and Kansas among his own race.

He returned to Rochester in 1S8S on account of failing health, and had since resided in this city. A wife and one son survive him. The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock to morrow afternoon from the house and at 3 o'clock from Zion's Church. ANNOUNCEMENTS. -Ezra Carter, aged SO years, died yes terday at KOa Adams street.

At the Brick Church last evening Rev. R. Taylor discussed the question of whether the Fresbyteriau church shall have deacon nesses. He gave an outline ot tne beginning of the movement by the General Assembly, where a committee reported in favor of the re-establishment of the order. He said that he had not given the subject as much study a3 it deserved and did not wish the opinion he expressed as his final judgment.

If the measure should pass it would not force any church to eiect deaconesses, but would leave the matter for each church to decide, whether they had need of office. Dr. Taylor then spoke as follows, etc: I ask you too look back a httle. What light does the history of the church and the Scriptures shed on this point. Is either gives any direct and unmistakable evidence.

The references in the New Testament are dis puted by some, whether the word used means strictly deaconess or only servant of the church. If however, the office did not exist in the Apostolic church, it originated soon after. Then duties were to minister to the sick and poor, but they did not have a very protracted existence. Various orders of nuns arose and gradually the office of deacouess fell into disuse. The most successful revival of the office was in this century in Germany, irom whence it gradually spread over Europe and tt is country, not only in the Episcopal but in the Presbyterian Church.

The question to be considered, then, is Bo we need deaconesses Hitherto the work among the poor and sick in -the church has been done, by men and well done so far as it has gone. Money has been wisely distributed. But in proportion to the need of our cities, what a pitiful sum is that which the church has distributed. The need of greater activity is shown by the spread of charitable societies outside the church. Who are the supporters of these charitable societies You men may give.

Liio largest, uoui.lluui.iuu9, uu iuo women have done the work and these charities would not have been established anywhere but inside the church is women had been given her place. And if these charities had been in the church as they are the offspring of the church, the outside world would never blame the church for its exclusiveness. Women can do some things that men cannot. For instance, men are generally out of place in a sick room- Women are more sympathetic1 visitors of the poor and can do a hundred things that men, capable as they are, cannot. With, these facts in view you have a strong argument in favor of the appointment of deaconesses.

What are Borne of the objections raised against this plant Some say that it is unnecessary to officialize this women 8 work. But if there is a need for this work why not make a place for it in our church government. The placing of any one in an official position gives a certain confidence and sense of responsibility. Some say that the intro duction of deaconesses will introduce nun neries. Now there is just as much danger of a deacon becoming a monk.

The Protestant deaconess takes no vows and she is free to leave the oilice for marriage or any other cause. The most serious objec tion is the lack of Soriptural authority. But in the apostolic churches the work was done by women, under the guidance of the apostles, whether they held the title or not. We find the germ at least of the office. There are hundreds of devoted women waiting to do this work if they have the church's approval.

Shall the Presbyterian Church have deacon- essos I think from the light we have wa should answer, yes. Dr. Taylor announced the report of the church works for the past year as follows Additions to membership by confession of faith, seventy-seven; by certificate, fifty- five, making the whole number of members 1, 804. The church has contributed, for the support of worship, $12, 035 for home missions, for other benevolence. 114,000.

mSf Makes an Assault Upon Mr. Is Locked Up. Frazsr and While J. F. Frazer and several other members of the After Dark Company were standing at the corner of Central avenue and Front street yesterday afternoon about clock, two Italians passed them and one of them brushed against Mr.

Frazer and knocked him to one side. "Look out 1 What are you doing said iur. rrazer. Ain't da lots of room in da road a for youa said the Itailian who had committed the affront, and who subsequently gave his name as Tony Frank. Well, you just mind you're own business, retorted Mr.

Frazer who was angry but not sufficiently so to cause trouble. He had hardly SDoken when th drew razor from his pocket and rushed at Mr. Frazer, and was only pre-tonted from inflicting bodily injuries on the actor by the intervention of his friends, one of whom seized the Italian's uplifted arm and told him to go along about his business. The two sons of Italy slunk away when they saw that their enemy had a stronger force and went upstairs in a building on Front street occupied as an Italian lodging house. One of tho members of the theatrical company went to the patrol office and Sergeant Birchall and Officer Cummings arrested i-raak and locked him up.

FOR FIVE." The Old Match Woman Absent From the Streets. Old Annie Cohen has sold wax matches in the Arcade, along the streets and in the hotel corridors so long that she is known of by the regular and a goodly proportion of the transient population of Rochester. Day after day, rain or shine, she has oilered hor matches 'dree for five' to passers-by. About four weeks ago one night Mr. Sanger, of the Powers Hotel, found her crouched in the corner of one of the corridors of the hotel about 11 o'clock in ths evening.

She told him that she was very sick, and upon his persuasion started for home. Since that time old Annie has not been seen on the streets and among those who saw her most frequently it was rumored that sne was dead. Nobody seemed to know where she lived, but yesterday a Democrat and Chkonicu reporter, after some time spent in investi gating, found that she has a room with a family in the Levi Block, corner of Hudson and Holland streets. For the benefit of her many friends and customers it may be stated that she is not dead but that she ii suffering from a bad attack of the grip. She hopes soon to bs around again.

It is a favorite fable with the folk of the city that Old Annie is very rich. She is worth about $3, 000 which she has stored away somewhere made it all selling matches, wishes that it was ten times as much and says that it is nobodys business. She has a son who is a tailor and when old Annie dies he will probably get the money she has mads selling matches dree for five. Grand Sale of Oriental Rugs. C.

Columbus at Cincinnati. t. Louis at Louisville. Baltimore at Washington. A Game This Afternoon.

At Culver Fark at 4 o'clock this afternoon the Kochesters will play an exhibition game with a semi-professional club composed as follows: Nolan, pitcher; Andy Weidman, catcher Dunherr, Jfirst base Jack Creegan, second base Tom Calihan, short stop McHale, third base; Joe Creegan, right field 'Stump" Weidman or Moran, center field, and Delaney or McQuade, left field. The game should be an interesting one. The First Home Game. On Saturday at Culver Park the Roch esters played the Cornell University nine. The attendance was small as the weather was threatening.

The game was a very good one, all thinps considered, and the Rochesters made a favorable impression. Ui course as Saturday's was but the beginning of the season it is no criterion but most of the players gave evidence that they knew what they were there for. The playing of Powers and MoDermott and Lrquhart was particularly admired, but these men had the bulk of the work to do in the seven in uirigs played and the others were not given much opportunity. lierney was in the box and pitched a good steady game. He had good command of the ball and good curves.

The Cornell club is a strong amateur organization and in Field, the catcher it has a great player. The game was not very interesting and no bodv had gumption to keep a score. It was called at the end of the seventh inning to allow the collegians to catch a train, and at that time the score stood 6 and 2 in favor of Rochester. The Rochesters played in the positions they will fill this season. Cornell made but five hits oil Tierney and Rochester had nine hits.

The errors were two a piece. American Association. Louisvtlle, April 19. The Browns bunched their hits to-day and aided by a couple of bad errors by Beard, won an in teresting earns from the home team. The features of the game were the fielding of Comiskey and Lvons and the batting of Cahill.

The game to day was sharply played by the fielders, and while the batting was not heavy, there was enough of it to keep up the interest of the 3, 000 spectators. Both teams made the same number of base hits, but Washington placed hers to better advantage, and, aided by two wild pitches of Cunningham when men were on bases, was enabled to win the game.

Washington had made four more runs in her half of 'the eighth Inning, but the game was then called on account of rain.
