The weather is a theme which has
been worn threadbare, but the extra
ordinary beautiful. mild weather which
has been prevailing here in Minnesota
for the past few weeks has put the old
theme in the mouth of.every one. Just
think of it the last week in November
and the weather more pleasant than it
was during the last week of May. The

ming Of the sixteenth century, "a Cath
ole priest, Martin Luther, rebelled
against the authority of the Catholic
church, and founded church of his
own. One of the reasons which Luther
gave for leaving the church of Christ
and starting church of his own was
the Catholic doctrine about indulgences,
which he Nilely misrepresented and
abused. From that day to the present
non-C Catholics have persisted in mis-
understanding what the Catholic church
teaches on this as well as on every o her
important subject. Nom Catholics think
that an indulgence is a permission to
commit SIN Now, what do we Cath
olics mean by an indulgence? An in
Iulgence is the remission of the tenn
poral punishment due to sin, after the
guilt and eternal punishment have been
forgiven through the saerement Of pen
ance. An indulgence has nothing to do
with the guilt or with the eternal pun
ishment of sin. 1t refers only to the
temporal punishment which Godinficts
on the sinner for every sin committed.
That every sin brings with it a temporal
punishment is clear from the plain
teaching of the Holy Bible. Adam
sinned, and his sin, together with the
eternal punishment thereof was for
given. But the temporal punishment
| clnknpcc Iooft, c,,,i
remained. Moses sinned at the waters
Of Contradiction, and was forgiven.
But the temporal punishment remained.
He could not enter the Promised Land.
So every sin brings with it a temporal
punishment, which must be undergone
either in this world or in Purgatory.
An indulgence is the remission of this
temporal punishment.
The true church has power to grant
indnlgences-the forgiveness of this
temporal punishment. For priests have
power to forgive sins. Whose sins We
shall forgive, they are forgiven
John Goth, 90 verse.) He who can do
the greater, can do the less. Now it is
greater to forgive sins and the eternal
punishment due to them than to remit
temporal punishment. The Savior gave
to Peter the keys of the kingdom Of
heaven, and said to him: "What-so-ever
thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound
in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt
loose on earth shall be loose in heaven.''
Matthew 10Th 10 verse. These words
give an unlimited power to Peter and
his successors of freeing a person prop
erly disposed from every thing that
may keep mis- soul out of heaven. In
other words the Saviour then and theIe
gave Peter and his successors the power
of granting indulgences.
We cannot gain an indulgence unless
we are free from mortal sin. There
fore, in asking us to strive to gain in
! dulgences, the church urges US most
powerfully to abandon evil, and to truly
return to God. .... .s..
! At the close of the service a society
was formed to aid in evangelical work

This morning In the Criminal Court, Judge

that on the night Of August 13 last she and Clay
ton entered the house OF Mrs. Adaline O'Bryon,

raj witnesses were examined but no case was
made out, and the Government abandoned the
case. A verdict OF not guilty was rendered by
direction OF the court. Before the verdict was
recorded, however, there was some loud talking
among the lady witnesses, one OF whom Miss
Fannie Gidelman, said she could identify the
prisoner Mr. Coyie. at the suggestion OF the court,
conferred further with the Witnesses and an
nounced that he had been laboring under mis-
apprehension. Miss Gidelman testified that she
saw the girl leave the house and hide under
stoOp; that she called on Clayton to pursue her
but he refused, and she afLerward found a hat
In the hall which she identified as one given Re-
becca Other ladies testified that they saw the
girl hiding, and that Clayton tried to shield her.
The jury recOnsidered the case, and found a
verdict OF guilty. Notice Of motion for new trial
was given.
