The service was conducted on this morning by
Rev. Father NJ. E. Murphy. His sermon was upon
the receiving of the Holy Ghost and the establish
mept Of Gods church upon earth Of which this
Sabbath was an anniversary day. Father Murphy
said briefly that this was very great day through.
out the Christian world. for it on this day
that the church took its established FORM Up to
this time it had been an inanimate thing. just as
Adam had been an inanimate mass Of matter un-
til God breathed His spirit into him. And as
Adam was filled with life and intelligence. so too
on this day was the apostles filled with new
powers and with new zeal by the coming of the
Holy Ghost. Up to this time the apostles had
been an ignorant lot of poor fishermen without
power and without courage, but now, when the
Holy Ghost had decended upon them, they were
filled with unbounded power and enthusiasm, an d

be without the suns light, so are mems lives
without the light of the Holy Ghost. If men have

is because they will not receive it. l find man

ness by his own choice. Now, it is the mission of
the Holy Ghost to enlighten the world and all
those who will may enjoy its blessings; but there
are many who hide away from the light of the
Holy Ghost like bats and owls from the light of
day. They know that it shines but they keep
their hearts closed against it. They hear the
gospel preached but they close their minds against
understanding it, because it is not agreeable with
their ways of life, and the light of the Holy Ghost
shines on them in vain. Then there are those
who accept the doctrines, but they want still to
do only that which is agreeable to their own
tastes-they wish to put on the new garment over

ways of the world cannot enjoy the blessings Of
the Holy Ghost. We are made to live in the light,
and no matter how bad mans life may be he
still clings to the wish to be good. If you will

overcome the temptations that allure you away

Thoughts for Thinkers.

Be ashamed to die until you have gained
some victory for humanity.
Justice is the constant and perpetual will
to render to every one that which is his
Own.S
Idleness is the chief author of mischief,
and one of the greatest causes of melan-
chOly.
The largest giver is not the one who gives
the most money, but who makes the largest
sacrifice.
God does not estimate men according to
their talents, but according to what they do
with them.
Obedience, submission, discipline and
courage. these are among the characteristics
that make man.
What men want is not talent. it is pur-
pose; in other words. not the power to
achieve, but the will to labor.
Books are the true Jewelers.. They give
to all who faithfully use them the society,
the spiritual presence, of the best and
greatest of our race.
The constant duty of every man toward
his fellows, is to ascertain his own powers
and special gifts, and to strengthen them
for the good of others.

Reforming Criminals.

The Brooklyn Eagle in discussing the
subject says that it is the primary object OF
all criminal legislation to protect life and
property. But there is another object
which the humanity of modern civilization
suggests, and that is the reformation, if
possible, of the culprit. In some men and
women the criminal impulse is congenital
and ineradicable. but happily this is not
true of the majority of those who commit
crime. Although prison reforms have not
attained the highest degree of effectiveness.
enough has been accomplished to greatly en-
courage the hope on which they are under
taken and to Justify the belief that trans
gressors of the law may be ultimately
brought back to the paths of integrity and
good citizenship.
The ticket-of-leave system in operation
in England has developed excellent results,
and at the last session of the New Jersey
legislature a bill was passed, embOdying it's
essential features. 1t is known as the
prison parole law. and authorizes the court
of pardOnS to release prisoners. upon care
fully defined conditions. whose conduct dur
ing their incarceration is such as to war

that no convict shall be set at large upon
parole until satisfactory evidence is fur
nished the court that business or employ
ment has been secured for him with some
body fully acquainted with his record. He
must also satisfy the court that he will live
in conformity with all the terms and re-
QuiremeDts of his parole and report to the
governor of the state every three months as
to his circumstances and whereabouts. In
the event of failure to comply with any of
the conditions imposed he may be arrested
and reimpriSOned.
The workings of this scheme will be
watched with the greatest interest by all
humanitarians and refOrmers. 1t seems to

An habitual drunkard in Sweden or Nor
way is treated as a criminal in this sense,
that his inOrdinate love of strong drink
renders him liable to imprisonment and
while in confinement it appears he is cured
of his bad propensities on a plan which,
though simple enough. is said to produce
marvellous effects. From the day the con-
frmed drunkard is incarcerated, no nourish-
ment is served to him or her but bread and
wine. The bread. however, it should be-
said. cannot be eaten apart from the wine,
but it is stepped in bowl of it and left to-
soak for an hour or more before the meal is
served to the delinquent. The first day
the habitual topper takes his food in this
shape without the slightest repugnance; the
second day he finds it less agreeable to his
palate. and very quickly he evinces posi-
tive aversion to it. Generally, the doctor
says. eight or ten days of this regimen is
more than sufficient to make a man lOathe

Slime, editor of the Whiteson Advocate,

to his own head and shot twice, instantly
killing himself.
Stine, Cook, and German section hand
had been to Amity, a distance of three
miles from Whiteson, and were returning
on foot. Slime was walking about ten feet
in advance Of the others. Without warn
ing Cook drew a pistol and fired at Slime.
The ball struck him i'll the back of the
neck breaking his spinal column. Cook
then turned the pistol towards himself and
fired shot into his own breast. Then he
placed the pistol to his temple and sent
second shot through his brain. No cause
is known for the tragedy and it is ae-

FIFTY YEARS AGO.
GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY OF ARCH
BISHOP KENRICK or ST. LOlIS.
The Catholic Prelate who Denied
the EmfaIibiiity Of the Pope
of Rome


ST. LOUIS, Nov. 30.-Just fifty years ago
Peter Richard Kenricl1 was conseerated
bishop Of the Roman Catholic church.
Today his golden jubilee was celebrated
with great pomp. Only once before has the
golden jubilee Of a bishop been celebrated
and that was Of John McHale, archbishop
of Tuam, Ireland, eleven years ago. 1t is
an event SO rare that the whole world is in
terested in it and in This case not simply
because such celebrations are in frequent
but because Archbishop Kenrick filled
these fifty years with usefulness and good,
and were it not for til act on notable oc-
casion he incurred t5e dispIeasure Of the
Holy See by declarin boldly his unbelief
in infallibility Of the pope, he would now
be prince of the elEFeh. Grand ponti-
ficai mass commemorative Of The occasion
began at 8 o'clock in the historic old cathe-
dral on Walnut street. Leading represen-
tatiyes of the Roman Catholic hierarchy of
the United States officiating. The jubilee
sermon delivered by archbishop Ryan of
Philadelphia. Preceding this there was an
impressive procession from the Cathedral
Parish school, situated next to the church
to the main entrance of the cathedral.
in the march out from the yard and up the
steps of the church the venerable arch
bishop walked under canopy which was
carried by attendants appointed for the
occasion. The mass, which was most i'm
pressive and elaborate, was celebrated by
Cardinal Gibbons and Archbishop Ryan,
assisted by number of priests. The altar
was dressed in magnificent stvle with
flowers, evergreens and colors. The cere-
mony concluded with solemn Episcopal
blessing. The music of the mass was given
on grand scale. The mass selected for
the occasion was Gounod's "messe solem-
mel de Sainte Cecile" rendered by fifty
trained voices, accompanied by an orches-
ira and organ. A new and novel feature
in the music was furnished by the Fran
ciscan fathers, select choir of whom rem
dered several numbers.
