DR.. Petit. the popular author, lectur-
e- and traveller, commenced q series of
four scientific lectures at the opera
house on Wednesday evening. The
subject chosen for his lectures for the
course are respectively, "Physiognomy,"
"A plain talk for men only" "When TO
love, how to love-" and "who to
love-" and "Toot your own horn"
His lectures thus far have been
largely attended and greatly appreciat
e6, and it is evident that the doctor has
made a most favorable impression upon
the minds of his hearers. His ability
to instruct, and entertain his auditors is
beyond question, and that our people
will be benefited through his interest
ing and instructive lectures there are
good and valid reasons to believe.

oLNEY IS NOW CONVERTING IT.

This Is Reported on What Is Termed

THE. SUNDAY NEWSPAPERS.
The Ministerial Association Discusses a
 Plan to Suppress Them.

s The Ministerial Association Discusses a
 Plan to Suppress Them.
 NEW YORK, Dec 9.-At meeting of the Ministerial association on Monday Rev Dr. J. BurrelI of Marble Gollegi- ate church read paper on eThe Ideal Newspaper.
 We are not here to say pleasant things of our fagorite newspaper. said Mir Burrell, in part, Tor to laud the pol icy of the press. The power of the press is not defied. It is the abuse of this power that makes plain speaking a duty on the part of all right thinking men. We rise to protest today. And as ministers of the gospel, we have right. First, because we are spiritually responsible for the parish. -Four hos tile newspapers, said Napoleon, are more to be feared than 2 thousand bay onets If so, our duty is clear Sec ond, because we stand by the reading class The church is the largest sub- scriber the newspaper has. It repre- sents the wealth, culture and moral in- fluence of every community. And third, we have right, because we have the power There is no end to the pos abilities when Christians unite.
 In referring to the publishing of newspapers on Sunday, he said:
 "All the morning newspapers are Sab bath breakers. Every one is a fragrant enemy of the fourth commandment. And the sorrow of 1t is that our patrons, in greater or less degree, make us CO., partners with them. His objections to the Sunday issue were; That it is unnecessary. It is issued in violation of divine law. It is disreputable, in some cases, unspeakably so. It robs an army of employees of needed rest. An army of thousands of newsboys are kept at work on the Sabbath. It keeps up the worlds commerce by means of it's advertising columns it breaks up home life it is unfit for the sanctuary.
 Having finished his complaint he asked what was to be done about it. He said there was no better time for action than now, and suggested that Christian capitalists might undertake new pub lcation under the supervision of q board of Christian businessmen.
 "But anything is better than noth- ing" he said. Let us purge our con- sciences this day. We have marched up hill in fine fettle Shall our friends, the enemy, laugh to hear us shout and see us pleasantly march down again? Let us unite and act. ;
 Dr. J. Wesley Johnson coincided with Mir Brrrell Dr MacArthur de- clared the Sunday newspaper had come to stay. If tho public would discoh- tinue it's demand for the sensational t would soon be dropped. Rev. Dr. Hall thought it was the duty of the ministers to educate their charges as to what and what not to read.

SILVER REPUBLICANS ABSENT.
They Did Not Attend the Caucus of
 the Senators.


 WASHINGTON, Dec. g. The most notice. able feature of the Republican senate caucus which assembled Monday was the absence of the men who bolted the nomination of Mckinley because of the gold standard platform. Those absent on this account were Senators Dubois, Pettigrew, Mantle, Cannon, Squire and Teller. All these, except Senator Teller, were in the city and could have attend ed if they were so disposed. That their absence was intentional is clearly shown by the letter which Senator Dubois sent to the caucus resigning the position as secretary of the caucus of Republican senators, and as amember and secretary of the Republican advisory or "steer- ing" committee of the senate. If the bolting silverites were conspicuous by their absence, the siIvermen who re- mained within the party, were, as . rule, exceptionally prompt in their at- tendance.
 There were no long speeches in the caucus, and very few speeches of any character. Senator Dubois resignation was received without word of con- ment. There was no formal motion to accept the resignation, but taking its ae- ceptanee as matter of fact. Senator Lodge moved the election of Senator Wilson of Washington in his stead as secretary. Senator Shoup was placed on the steering committee in the place vacated by his colleague. This commit tee was also enlarged by the addition of Senator Hansbrough of North Da- kota
 The Dingley tariff bill was referred to the steerage committee with lnstruc- tions to investigate as to the likelihood of getting the bill through, and to de- wise means 10 that end if possible.
 The caucus referred the Pacific rail road question to the steering committee, indorsed the immigration bill and de- cided for an international agreement on silver
