Savior says Of the same class of duties:
For I was hungry and ye gave me meat:
was thirsty and. ye gave me drink: was
stranger and ye took me In; naked and
ye clothed me: was sick and in prison, and
ye come unto me- This also we classify
as philanthropy.
But an eminent sphere of philanthropy
in modern times IL among reforms. And
the first time I ever heard the name Of
Bishop Keane 1t was associated with the
cause of temperance, when he was bishop
Of the city Of Richmond. And, although l
never saw the face of Bishop Keane till
long after, always remembered his name
and honored him for his valor.
A Tribute to the Catholic Church.
"Of caring for the orphan, the homeless.
the sick, the dying. the Catholic Church has
always made a speciality. Here her services
have been eminent. 1 think all non-Cath-
olics must cordially admit this. The sacred
writer says: Pure religion and undefiled be-
fore God and the Father. is to visit the
widow and the fatherless in their affiiction.'
To do thus much, this church has admira-
bly, equipped herself. 1t Is one of her insti-
tutions In all Catholic churches mindful
of the Savior's words: The poor ye have
with you always there are boxes In

THE CZAR AT VERSAILLES.
With the C.arina He Inspected Il
Historic Place.

With the Csarina He Inspected the
Historic Place.
The Russian imperial party arrived at
Versailles at 430 pm. yesterday amid the
usual scenes of enthusiasm. Their majes-
ties visited the gardens and the park, the
grounds being beautifully prepared for
them, fountains playing and everything in
the neatest of order.
The Russian imperial standard was hoist
ed over the center of the Palace Of Ver-
sailles, and foated there throughout the
stay of their majesties.
After having made a tour Of the gar
dens, the czar and czarina entered the
court of honor where a magnificent tent
of red velvet, trimmed with gold fringe
had been erected. The imperial party was
met by the minister of fine arts the di-
rector of the national museums and the
curator of the palace, and were conducted
up the queens staircase, at the top of
which they were met by Nine. and Mile
Faure, whom their majesties graciously
greeted The visitors then proceeded to
inspect Marie Antoinettes and other small
rooms. Thence they were escorted to the
Sale des Glaces, and when they emerged
upon the balcony they were most en-
Enthusiastically cheered by the crowd, num-
bering about 1900 persons, assembled be-
fore the palace. Just before dusk the
grounds were brilliantly illuminated, all
the trees being hung with fairy lamps.
The horses belonging to the carriage of
NJ. Cochery, the minister of finance, be-
came frightened by the music while in the
court yard at Versailles and plunged down
the steps into the crowd, injuring eight
people, three of them seriously.
A banquet was spread in the Galerie des
Betailler, to which the guests sat down
at 7:3O o'clock. At the desire of the czar
all of the hundred guests on this occasion
sat at the same table. The czar, placed
between Mesdames Faure and Loubet, sat
opposite President Faure, who was placed
between the czarina and Nine. Brissom
musical and dramatic entertainment
followed the banquet, Mesdames Bernhardt
and Deina and Nine. Fugere, Delaunay
| and Coqueline being among the artists
The car was in evening dress, the czarina
being robed in a white dress and wearing
| a diadem upon her head and necklace OF
| diamonds and pearls on her neck.
The czar and cZarina having entered the
| imperial train after the performance II
| started at 1I:15 for Chalons. where the
military review takes place today, and Il
was followed ut II 80 o'clock by the presi
Dental train, conveying NJ Faure.
| The czar has given 100000 france for dis
| tribution among the poor of Paris.

REPUBLICAN BARBECUE.
Col. McCaun Speaks at Fairfax Court
House.
CorrespoDdence Of The Evening Star


FAIRFAX C. H, October G. 1896.
The republican barbecue at Burke's Sta
ton today was a success far as num-
bers and enthusiasm was concerned, but
only one of the speakers that were ad-
vertised made his appearance. This was
Col p H. McCaull, the republican candi-
date for Congress. Patrick Henry was
equal to the occasion, and the leaders
agreed that he filled the time and defined
the position of the republican party as
well as if there had been half a dozen
speakers.
The meeting was opened by Mr.. SamT
NJ FitZhugh, the chairman of the republi-
can party for Lee district In a short
speech he told why he was a republican.
He closed by introducing Col McCaull
Mr.. McCaull spoke for about two hours,
touching both upon the tariff and the
money question. His audience was a very
appreciative one, and he was frequently
applauded.
He began by explaining the protection
policy OF the republican party, and claimed
that IL was the change of that policy by
the democratic party that produced the
hard times. 1t is not the lack of money"
he said, but the lack of work. The re-
publican party, If given power, WILL by a
careful adjustment of the tariff on the
lines of protection start the mills up, give
work to the unemployed, and furnish a
home market for the farm produce"
He then discussed the silver question
ana said that free silver was a mis-
nomer. There would be no such thing as
free silver There were only two WAYS to
get money, and that was to work for il
or steal 1t. If silver was piled to the skies
and IL was not yours, the only way 10 get
IL would be to work for it, and that would
be no better than it was at present"

How 10 BE a Beauty After Fifty.


From the Churchman.
bright woman when applauded recently
for her goodness. begged her friend TO let
the matter drop. For" she said. whim-
sically, though 1 do try to be good from
some really high motives. yet / have one
reason for trying which 1 am afraid is a
lew one" What do you mean?'' inquired
her laughing friend. Il mean that / once
heard many years ago that beauty after
fifty depended not on features but on char
acter. Like all women, / desired to be
beautiful, and, Providence had denied
me the features necessary to secure that
result in early life. 1 determined to make
the attempt to be beautiful al flf;y. I am
row thirty-five," she concluded merrily
''and / must confess that / see no signs OF
this 1ndian summer loveliness, but I still
try to be good" These friends treated tho
matter as a Jest, but there is really sense
ard truth in the saying that beauty in later
life, in either man or womaa, is depende Mt
upon character far more than upon form or
color. 1t lis a common experience Cor
young woman to say: How fine-lookine
Mrs. - is. She Elust have been a beau
tiful girl" And to hear the reply: NO;
she was not nearly good-looking in her
youth she is now. Her beauty has de-
veloped with her years" And IT may have
been observed that this is oftenest true OF
women of high character. Nobility Will
tell upon the outward aspect. The carriage
OF the figure, the pose Of the head. the ex-
preston of the face-these come to reveal
more and more with the lapse of time the
inner hfe. There is something more than a
mere pretty sentiment intended in that
part Of ''The Little Minister" where we
read OF the beautiful face that God gives
to all who love Him and follow His
commandments Unselfishness, sincerity,
thoughtfulness, refinement-all of these
sraces of character, which are worth so
much more than mere outward shape and
color, lend their charm to those who have
consistently cherished them, until at fifty
they may really become beautiful.

Deciding "a Fine Point.
From the Chicago Tribune.

FROM tne Sn1tago lrlDuht
In the absence of the regular golf edito.
the following question from beginner was
referred to the turf editor for an answer:
I'm a game of golf, is it right to fuzzle your
put, or is 1t better to fetter on the tee?"
The turf editor set his teeth firmly, stared
hard at the wall in front of him a few mo-
ments and wrote the following reply: In
case a player snaggles his iron il is per-
missible for him to fuzzle his put, but a
better plan would be for him to drop his
guppy into the pringle and snoodle 1t out
with a niblick"
