Peters Cathedral.
SERVICES HELD LAST NIGHT
Eloquent Sermon Delivered by Rev. p. c.
Winters, of Plymouth. on the Efficacy
OF the Blessed Sacrament Other
Priests Who viii Dc Heard.

Forty hours' devotion began at the
late mass in st. Peters cathedral yes
terday morning and will continue until
Wednesday morning, when the relig-
ious period will terminate with a
solemn high mass Of thanksgiving. The
sermon this evening will be preached by
Rev. ]. A. Moffit, assistant priest at

clergy in this diocese; tomorrow evening

| ish. Susquehanna, will be the speaker.
He Is also most eloquent young priest,
and there will be large number eager

| livered the opening sermon of the Forty
| Hours at 7.30 o'clock last evening. This
Is the hour at which the sermon will
begin punctually each evening, so
that those who are desirous Of hearing
1t may not be lat6 In coming in and dis
turbing the rest OF the congregation.
Sermon by Father Winters.
| Father Winters spoke on the Scrip
tural text Come to me all ye who are
burdened, and I will refresh you" His
sermon was beautifully descriptive of
the saving efficacy Of the blessed sacra-
ment to heal the wounds and sores left
by mortal sin on mans soul. Our
| blessed Saviour came down from his
throne of happiness and glory and as
sumed the incarnation of man, so that
he could suffer and bleed on the cross
for the redemption of sinners.
AT the paschal feast before delivering
his body up to the sacriigious execu-
TONERS the Saviour instituted the sacra-
ment of the Eucharist. Having came
down from heaven to die ON the cross
that the Scriptures might be fulfilled, the
son of God still showed his love for
mankind by leaving his body and blood
under the appearance of bread and
WINE. 1t Is the same God, the same Di-
vine Presence that suffered and died
on the cross, that is still with us in the
tabernacle of the altar.
No Happiness Without Sacrament.
| Without recourse to this holy sacra-
ment no human being can be happy.
| The reverend speaker referred to the
present opportunity as one in which
| the men and women of the cathedral
parish should avail themselves of the
spiritual benefits to be derived from the
| forty hours.
| If we but seek him he will relieve us
of our spiritual burdens and our yoke
in this valley of trial and tribulation
viii indeed be light; and when we cross
the dark river of death our vision will
be rewarded with the presence of the
Eternal God in all His everlasting hap
piness and glory forever and ever.
| Amen.
Father Winters pronounced the ben
ediction of the Blessed Sacrament over
one of the densely thronged essem-
olage OF worshipers ever gathered at
one time In the cathedral.

NEWS OF TIE SOUTH SIDE.
Increased Activity ut tho North Works.
Funerals Saturday and Yesterday.
Other Notes.

The voice Of industry Is a welcome
visitor to the North works of the Lack
awanna Iron and Steel company. and 1t
Is to be hoped that the reports are true
which say that the outlook Is an eX-
ceedingly bright one. One indication
that better times are ahead Is the new
programme which went into effect at
the South works Saturday night. The
mill was In operation until yesterday
morning and the weeks work, until q
notice to the contrary is given, will
not end hereafter on Saturday evening
but will continue through the night
until Sunday morning at o'clock. Not
In more than two years past has the
South works operated on Saturday
night.
1t shows that the demand for the
product of the mill is so imperative
that the expectation of steadier times Is
well founded. The South works is run
nings at Its fullest capacity and only
enough of time Is set aside each week to
allow the necessary repairs around the
furnace and in the converting depart
ment to be made. The North works
resumed at o'clock this morning on
single turn.

Few of the reasons why we
are able to sell goods so much
below the usual prices as we
are doing:
1St....We sell for cash.
2d....We sell all our goods in the
store, not by the expensive way
of taking orders from house to
house.
3d....Handling so many goods we can
do it at a much smaller percent
age than where only halt the
quantity is sold.
4t!l.-..We buy from the manufacturer
or importer, not from the jobber,
thereby saving one profit.
5th....We have no rent to pay for
house, barn or store, cOnsc-
quently can afford to work cheap.
6th....DOing quite large wholesale
as well as retail business we
can do it at lower rates than a
house doing either branch ex-
clusively.
7th.--And principally because we are
naturally inclined to make very
low rates, depending on the judg-
ment of the purchasing public
to appreciate good goods and low
prices to move the goods quickly.
