With Mass and Sacrament the
Feast Day Is Observed.
The JOYOUS festival of Christmas was
celebrated by the Catholics of the city
in the usual pi0gs and solemn manner.
From earliest morning the faithful of
this denomination might be seen wend-
ing their way to their several places of
worship. There were few Catholics
who did not receive the bread of life
and it was a truly edifying sight to see
the thrUngs of people, men. women
and children, who sought the COM
munion. rail at the early masses.
The music was an especial feature of
the high masses. and OF a character be-
fitting the grandeur and Solemnity of
the OCCASION, Divine service was cele-
brated at the cathedral as follows: Pom
tifical high mass at > a. N. and 1890 a.
m; low mass at 7::30 and 9 O'clock. Rt.
Rev. N. Marty, of Dakota, was the cele-
bUant at the early mass, the sermon be-
ing preached by Father Harrison. At
the 1920 services Most Rev. John Ire
land was the celebrant, MonsignOr
O'COnnell, rector of the American col
lege at Rome. senior priest; DR.. j. F.
I-aughlin and Rey. GmeineT, deacons of
honor; Rev. James Byrne, deacon; Mr..
Pettigrew. subdeacon; Rev. John Shan
ley, master of ceremonies.
The old church never looked pref
tier. Depending from the ceiling to
the side galleries were number of fes-
t0OningS of evergreen and the affairs
were Respondent with burning wax
taperS, beautiful eandelabra and ex-
quiSite flowers. The church was packed
from the altar rails to the doors, large
number OF nOn-CatholicS being in at
tendance. The sermon was delivered
by Rev. James f. Loughlin, of the
Church of the Holy Rosary, Philadel-
phia, and it is not stretching the truth
TO say that no more eloquent sermon
was ever uttered from the Cathedral
pulpit. For an hour and a half this
young divine held the congregation
spell-bOund by the magic of his Oratory,
and though the sermon was long, there
was none but regretted when the con-
cluSiOn was reached.
He spoke from two texts; the first
words of the book of Genesis and Goth
chapter of the prophet Isaiah. He be-
gan by giving a graphic picture of the
condition of man between the time of
the creation when God said. "Let there
be light" and the birth of Christ. The
change brought about by the incarna-
ton by the Son of God, he next dilated
upon, and with matchlesS elOguence he
led the congregation in mind to the crib
at Bethlehem, where he pictured the
coming of the Majii and the peo-
pies of the various parts of the
earth, to pay tribute to the infant Jesus.
The change that came over man after
Shrlsts coming was next referred to,
leading up to a perOratiOn most grand
and fitting climax to the very able
discourse.
Father LOHghliD was elassmate of
rather Stanley, and was ordained in
Rome at the same time as the latter.

FOUL PLAY IMPOSSIBLE.
Postmaster Marston Undoubtedly
Killed by a Sudden Fall.

! Killed by Sudden Fall.
! William f.. Marston. postmaster at
Long Lake, where the Twin City stock
yards are located. was found dead in
ditch near the stock yards, about z
O'Clock yesterday morning, with his
skull fractured. He was lying face
downward upon the frozen mud, partly
under rude plank wagon bridge that
had been constructed over the ditch.
The shocking discovery was made by
one of his sons. On arising early Christ
mas morning the family learned that
he had not returned home since
he left after supper the night
previous, and search was at once begun
with the above result. 1t was at first sus-
pected that he had been victim of foul
play. Investigation. however, proves
beyond a reasonable doubt that he met
his death accidentally, walking off of
the guardless bridge i'll the darkness,
and fracturing his skull on the frozen
mud and ice below. He locked up the
pOStOtfice early, and was last seen when
he left drug store near by, shortly
had about $50 in gold in his possession
at that time. When his body was
found the next morning, none OF
the money was missing, though
several coins bad fallen from his pocket
on to the frozen mud. He had no known
enemies who could have committed the
deed from malice, and robbery could
not have been attempted under the cir
cumstanccs. Coroner Quinn was no.
titled. and ON investigation decided that
no inquest would be necessary, the case
bearing every evidence of an accident.
Long Lake pOStoffice is in Hennepin
county, but the body was found on The
Ramsey side of the line, and the case
comes under the Jurisdiction of Coroner
Quinn.
Postmaster MarstOn was over sixty
years of age, and was well and favora-
bly, Known in both counties. he owned

FREIGHT CARS SMASHED.
Trains Collide Near Westminster
Bridge---Bad Wreck, but No Fa-
talities.

CaIlttcSs
A collision occurred yesterday morn
ing between two Omaha transfer freight
trains at the Westminster bridge, which
resulted i'm the total wrecking of three
freight cars, and serious damage to
about half a dozen others. William
Bromer, the flagman who was ahead of
the stationary freight at the time of the
accident engaged in tagging an APP
preaching passenger train, says that
the second freight came round the
curve from the direction of the city,
and dashed into the rear of the first
train at speed OF about twenty miles
an hour. The wrecked cars con-
wheat, which was scattered in
ALL directions. The trainmel saved
themselves by Jumping, and no one was
hurt. Several fiat cars were rolled
down the steep embankment at the
scene of the collision and rendered unfit
for service. There is great heSitancy
by the fiagman and train hands about
placing the blame for the accident,
which seems to have arisen from the
fact that the flagman was unable to flag
two trains, coming from opposite dlrec-
tiuns, at the same time.
A gang of wreckerS was at once
dispatched to the scene of the smashup,
and the line was cleared in a space of
about two hours. 1t is estimated
that the company's loss will be about
$4,000. Had the accident occurred
fifty feet further up the track. the CEN
ter of long and high trestle bridge
would have been the scene, and several
lives would doubtless have been lost.
No reliable statement could be obtained
from any source as to where the fault
of the accident lay. The fiagman,
Bromer. refused to state the exact cir
cumstances of the affair. remarking
that so far as he was concerned he had
done everything possible to avoid an
accident. 1t seems that considerable
blame must attach to the crew in charge
of the colliding train in advancing at a
high rate of speed at so dangerous a
point. Passenger traffic was delayed
but short time as result of the acci-
dent

Publication was made in the GLOBE
yesterday of a suit brought by Kane &
Calvin, of Duluth, against the Powers
Dry Goods company, of this city, and
removed to the Ramsey county court
for adjudication. In their complaint,
Kane & Calvin had set up a charge of
fraud and claimed they had been IN

purpose of enabling the Powers CON-
pany to buy an attachment and collect
a claim due them. @
The Powers Dry Goods company is

there is not particle of ground for it,
nor scintllla of truth in the charges
made in the complaint. This suit was
brought once before in Wisconsin and
taken to Chippewa Falls for trial where
it was thrown out of court on the plead

hint of fraud in the matter and say the
