EIVED.
ANNIVERSARY OF HIS BIRTH
CELEBRATED BIZ THE VARIOUS

The temperance societies of the
cathedral appropriately celebrated
Father Mathews ONE hundred and
fifth birthday at Cretin hall last
evening. Following a choice music
and literary programme Mgr.
Nugent, of Liverpool, Eng, delivered
an eloquent address upon the life
and work of Father Mathew, Mgr.
Nugent has been engaged in the
temperance work for a. number Of
years and has covered nearly the
same fields as the great exponent
OF total abstinence, which fact
added greatly to the interest of his
discourse. He dwelt particularly
upon the obstacles with which the
noted reformer had to contend in his
own country and contrasted the op-
portunities and success, with which
he met in Europe and America.
ST. JOsEPH's PARISH
The Sacred Thirst and Father
Matthew temperance societies, of St.
Joseph's parish, united in a grand
celebration of the event, in their
parish hall. The large room was
Well filled with an audience which
was treated to a very entertaining
literary and musical programme.
MISS Theresa Shesgreen contributed
a piano solo, and was followed by
little Nellie Corcoran in a pleasing
recitation. James Keating amused
his listeners with several Irish songs
while Mr. and Miss St. Jean rendered
a vocal duet in a delightful manner

ST. VINCENTS PARISH.
Inc Iotal Abstinence society of ST
vincent parish also took notice of the
anniversary, giving an entertainment
III IFS nall last night. The princin.a1
address was by a. W. Gutridga. ex-
president of the st. Paul archdiocesan
union. Having briefly sketched the
life of Father Matthew, Mr. Gutr;6pa
uWelt upon some of the characteristics
OF the great reformer and also his
methods. One feature to be considered
was his courage. Two of his brothers
were distillers, but that did not hold
MIN back, nor did the ridicula of his
enemies. He sought to enroll women
and children in the movement cutie as
much. He was an earnest advocate of
the cause of prohibition.
Ambrose Pierce read a paper giving
the reasons why all-the temperate
the incorporate, the labor1r, the young
should join a T. A. society.
Thomas Kelly delivered a most in
teresting address upon the history of
drink in Ireland, showing that up to
about the tsnth century there was no
intoxicating liquor in the island.
Vocal music was rendered by Messrs.
O'Connell, Cunningham and Files.

Ffesbyterlan conference today by two
ministers who have lately returned
from an extensive visit in the far
East. United States Minister Terrell
also received a. red-hot roast" The

elsewhere have unduly excited the
people and were in great measure the
cause OF recent troubles, was strongly
denounced by Rev. Mr.. Cady, ard he
fecited several Incidents that came
under his PERSONAL observance last
winter as going to show that Rear
Admiral Kirkland is morally incom
petent to pronounce judgment upon
questions pertaining to missions. and
more profane and demoralfzed
man than Admiral Kirkland the Rev.
Cady did not meet in all his travels.
Inc admirars conduct at Jerusalem
last winter was characterized as a dis
grace to the American navy, and his
own officers expressed their shame of
him.
Rev. w. o. Carrier spoke to the same

made his investigation of the recent
trouble mere farce. The judge dimes
with the sultan once a month, and. ac-
cordfngly to Rev. Mr.. Carrier, openly
aVoW's his partiality to Mohammedan-
ism and sees no reason why mission

CHICAGO, Oct. 1O.-Flagrant and
open violations of the interstate
commerce law by the traffic officials
of the Western roads during the last
few weeks have created alarm
among the more conservative man.
ayers. The open reductions in freight
rates during the last few days to
Colorado points were only made, it
is said, to cover up the secret rate
cutting that has been indulged in
for many months past. Western
freight rates have become demoral-
lied as they never were before, and
the executive officers of the various
roads have come to the conclusion
that something has to be done
quickly to avert serious trouble.
With the utmost secrecy a meeting
was arranged, which came off this
evening at the Union League club.
All sorts of propositions for adjust
ment of the existing troubles were
made, but none of them received
much support. Where the trouble
will end there is no telling.

vitation to capital and immigration,
with a rare country and climate, and
a social and political organization of
high type, what better can we ask
than that these things should be pre-
sented to the world by that most ef-
fective form of advertising which
consists in securing for them per-
sonal investigation by hosts of peo-
pie from afar?
1t seems to be admitted on all sides
that if the promoters of the idea of
a Northwestern exposition are in
earnest, there are no difficulties in
the way. If the people of these two
cities stir themselves vigorously and
go to work together heartily, at
most three years from this time may
find them the seat and center of a
display that will send the blood of
a new life coursing through them
vigorously. Whether by this or some
other demonstration, it is time for
them to shake off their lethargy.
The world does not stand still, and
they who would keep at the van
must be alert, aggressive, ambitious
of leadership. Here is something
which affects other interests than
those of our own state merely, which
seems to assure the ready co-opera-
tiOO of the naOn1e of that vast oTpS
pire which stretches from Lake
Michigan to the backbone of the
continent. To have here a mighty
Industrial display would be the
opening of a new era. Our sister
states and the nation will look
upon the plan with a favoring eye
and extend a helpful hand. 1t is
time for us to consider seriously and
practically what steps should be
taken to place the Twin Cities on
this new eminence, and to confer
upon the Northwest this new distinc-
ton. 1t may be made the greatest
event in the life of our great band
of young, vigorous and ambitious
to be taken hold of seriously by de-
termined and practical men. 1t is
an idea worth the careful study of
every citizen of St. Paul and Min
neapolis, and of every inhabitant OF
q Northwestern state.
St. Paul daily globe., 1895-10-11
"A NORTHWESTERN EXPOSITION

The suggestion that the people of
the Northwestern states unite to
hold a great industrial exposition
two or three years hence is begin
ming to receive serious consideration,
and is met approvingly by many of
the people most interested. There is
no doubt either of it's fitness or of it's
unqualified success if the people of
the great commemorative of the
Northwest shall put into it and be-
hind it the energy and enthusiasm
which are so peculiarly theirs. The
Interstate exposition is no longer an
experiment. It was tried most salts
factorily by the Pacific coast just
after the close of the worlds fair at
Chicago. 1t has been tried by the
South, and those who have visited
the Atlanta exposition now open are
astounded at its excellence and at
the great benefits which it promises
to bring to the people of that sec
tion. These successes have stimu-
lated enterprise, and other exposi-
tions will be organized to succeed
them. It is fitting that the North
west should be first in the field.
There is no other portion of the
country that can compare with this
in material. There is no other which
is furnished by nature so abundant
fIA
that gives attractiveness to an in
dustrial display. There is none
winch a larger number of people de-
sire to visit. There is none where
the facilities for communication are
SO ample. There is none which pos-
sesses a center for the building un
of an exposition such as the Twin
Clties. Here may be gathered the
exhibits of eight or ten great states.
each one of which furnished at Chi
cago a department that alone was
worth the journey to see. We have.
moreover, a public Spirit, a wealth
OF ingenuity, determination to sur
pass all others that would tend to
carrying out the project in complete-
ness. The Northwest is a. familiar
term throughout the whole countrv:
and everywhere it is associated with
breadth of conception and vieor of
execution. A Northwestern exnosi-
0lon would, when seriously and form
ally proposed, command universal
attention and respect, at home and
abroad.
Already the idea has been dis
cussed sufficiently to make headwav
and meet cordial support outside of
our own state. Public opinion has
approved it in Wisconsin. If, thew
say 1t is earnestly proposed to hold
m1d-continent exposition between
St Paul and Minneapolis, and if
these two cities are ready to unite
their forces to make it a. success
then we can have their hearty CO.
operation. We have no doubt that
Ihls Will be the reception of the sug-
gestlon in all the comm11n-
tiles interested, from Wisconsin
to the Rocky mountains. And
no one can be insensible to the
enormous advantages that would ac.
crue to this whole section of the
country, and particularly to the peo.
pie of Minnesota and of these twc
cities. Wherever such expositions
have been held. they have given ar
impulse to progress such as could
scarcely have been reached by E
decade of normal growth. With al
the wonderful variety Of the raw
material of wealth with which
nature has furnished us, with the
unparalleled resources that need bu-
to be measured to offer their own in

GODS favor to us. The necessity of

There is little honor in accepting
God when We are unfortunate and in
trouble, for there is little else for us
to do then. But to seek out God when
we are in prosperity is a truer test of
our loyalty. This harvest scene calls
to mind the parallel it has in our lives.
The seed sown brings the harvest. So

graduate of the institution be found,
and his portrait be painted and hung
in the state historical rooms to testify
ITO posterity that the college ever did
anything, was just. But those days
are happily past. The school is now
a business and not political affair;
It's teachers are workers and not
pensioners; and the attendance with
which it opens is sufficient proof that
such a school, so conducted, is need
ed and appreciated.
Middle-aged men can recall the
contempt of the farmers of their boy
hood for ''book-farming." When a
progressive farmer was seen putting
into practice what some book taught.
sneers and rTdicule greeted his in
noVation. The conservative farmer
believed that what he did not know
about farming was not worth the
trouble of acquiring, and could not
be found in books. There was the
same pride of opinion, and the same
obstinacy Of it then that one finds
occasionally now in individuals in
all callings. But gradually the
oooklsh man made his way. The
boys began to see that there were
mysteries in the great laboratory in
which they worked, which it would
advantage them to master. There
were things in soils and manures
and seeds that father didn't know.
The farm paper began to edge it's
way into existence, meeting the
sharp corners of the preiudices of
the old folks, but getting a welcome
in the curiosity and hunger for more
knowledge of the youngsters. The
farm paper was the forerunner of
the farm school and the experiment
station. The old prejudice is gone
With the generation that entertained
it, and the book farmer and the
graduate of the farm college is the
rule now where he was but recentlv
the exception.
The practical things taught and
learned at the school on the expert
mental farm are not the only things
OF value the student will take back
to the farm with him. He will
realize that farming is a trade and
something more, a vocation and
something more, a means of liveli-
MOOD and yet more. He will grasp
the truth that it a profession, rank
ing with the most learned, and cover
ing field wider than any of them.
The science Of chemistry occupies
one corner of the field. It's bound
aries include botany, Mineralogy
lies partly within it's lines. The
myr1ads Of insects for which
the farm provides food make
entomology a branch of the sciences
with which the farmer must make
acquaintance if he would make pro-
fits. All the crafts are allied to his
business. He must mend a chain or
forge a bolt at a pinch, and he must
be enough of carpenter and wheel
wright to make repairs of imple-
ments when time is too valuable, to
be given to trips to the shops. With
all this comes a higher conception
OF his vocation, a sense of it's dignity
and of its Importance among the pro-
fessions and the crafts of men. The
work of the farm ceases to be
drudgery, for the WEAKNESS of doing
is lost in the delight of doing.
Labor, directed by intelligence,
economies effort and increases pro-
duct. The waste products are turn,
ed to profitable account. The farm
becomes a great mandatory, and
farming one of the learned profess
Sions.
