DEDICATED A CHURCH
Interesting Ceremonies at the Church
ofthe Holy Family, Capouse Ave.

Bishop O'Hara yesterday dedicated
the new church of the Holy Family, on
Capouse avenue, Of which the corner
stone was laid one year ago last sum-
mer. 1t is a pretty little temple and
with the pastoral residence, which ad-
joins. cost $l7,S00. The congregation is
made up in the main of Slavonian
Catholics and as an evidence of their
lively faith it might be remarked that
over $13,OCJ of the debt has already
been paid.
The dediCatory services were. made
unusually interesting through the par
ticipation of a large number of Polish
and SIavonian societies and a band of
little girls prettly arrayed in pure
white and bedecked with floral
wreaths. A short parade was held at
10 o'clock, in which the societies and
parishioners participated. Joseph Milo
was chief marshal and Joseph Kag-
mex, chief of staff. Guth's band, of the
South Side. and the Roma band. Of
Dunmore, furnished the music.
At IL o'clock solemn high mass was
celebrated Ivy Rev. Father Jankola, of
of Wilkes Barre. as deacon, and Rev.
Father Dembrinski. Of Scranton, sub
deacon. Among the priests in the
sanctuary We're Rev. NJ. +. Lotus, Rev

Mr.. PENNINGTONs RECITAL.
verv Pleasing Programme Rendered
in Elm Park Church.

One Of the finest musical programmes
ever heard in Elm Park church was
that of last evening when Mr.. j. AL
fred Pennington gave one of his beau
tiful organ recitals, assisted by Mr..
John Il. Watkins. in several vocal
numbers. The early ringing of the
chimes summoned vast throng to the
doors and II was a great audience that
listened to the music.
Mr.. Pennington gave an entirely rev
programme. He has not yet repeated
number i'm his various recitals and
his splendid repertoire is well sustained
in excellence. Last night his first
number was the exquisite short
sonata in c miner (No. p, one of the
six great sonatas of Mendelssohn. The
exquisite sustained melody i'm the ada
gio was given with rare perfection. The
effect in the sprlghtly allegro macs
toso movement was especially pleasing
while the noble theme in the fugIe
was a climax Of harmony and feeling.
He played q romanza by Parker, rev.
er before heard in this city which was
fascinating in treatment as the rapid
following of the right hand by the
same chords With the left had a novel
effect.
This was followed by an andante
contabile, beautiful and evanescent in
it's distant sweetness, from the Fourth
symphony by Widor; Dudley Bucks
charming variations of The Last Rose
of Summer" variations of the well
known 20 Sanctisseince." and d ten
der and lively descriptive piece by
Widor. "A Pastorale," We're played be-
fore the magnificent grand march from
Guilmants cantata Of Arianne. This
was given with the INTERPRETATION of
an artist and brought with it all the
contagious enthusiasm of the compost
| t!On.
Great interest was felt in Mr.. j. T.
| Watkins part of the programme. His
fellow townsmen cannot hear too often
their distinguished baritone, and the
numbers last night were not disap-
pointment. He sang the sacred selec-
tion Thou Art Passing Hence" with
great feeling and intelligence. The
solo Lead Kindly Light" arranged by
| d. Pughe Evans, was finely rendered,
while the great dramatic piece, "Blow,
| Blow Thou Winter Wind" by Sergeant
| clearly evinced the progress made in
his art by Mr.. Watkins. His enuncia-
tion is 80 flawless and his voice so well
under control that too much praise cam
not be given to his work of last even
| ing. 1t is to be hoped that this pro-
gramme will be repeated in the lear
| future.

WOMEN SMOKERS.
A Writer Who Approves OF the Fair
Sex Using Tobacco

Writer Who Approves OF the Fair
Sex Using Tobacco
A recent writer on the subject OF
say that may prove interesting reading
to dramatists, stage managers and
theater-goers generally, says the New
York Telegram. Here 1t is:
When in a play a well-dressed wom-
an produces cigarette case and begins
TO light up you know at once she is
the adventures of the piece. The
dramatist would never dare to endow
her with any moral qualities after that.
She may possibly be a divorcee; at the
very least she has designs on the hero's
purse and on his general happiness.
Who ever saw virtuous stage heroine
smoking? The very idea would be re-
voting to all conventional notions Of
propriety and the men would fiercely
discuss this horrifying lapse on the
part Of the dramatist over their own
cigarettes between the acts. The sup
posed degrading effect OF tobacco on
women is purely a bourgeois notion.
The highest and the lowest do as they
please in the matter. Now and then
there arises some strong and indie
pendent woman who follows her own
course and is perfectly Indifferent to
outside opinion. Such character was
the late Miss Emily Faithful, a most
noble, admirable and withal womanly
minded woman, who soothed her
nerves after her work was done by
smoking full-flavored cigars.
The peasant women, especially in Ire
land and Scotland, enjoy their whiffs
from short pipes filed with strong to-
bacco. No! I'm not advocat-
ing the use of short clays among the
wide class covered by the word ladies,
but for the life OF me cannot see what
harm Is done to these peasant women
by the process of putting of their
cares in their own way. In the best
houses nowadays when cigars are
rettes are offered TO the ladies. The
hostess, as a rule, sets the necessary
example to her lady guests. The ranks
of the regular cigarette smokers in
clude the dowager empress OF Russia,
the Princess OF Wales, Princess Beat
rice, Princess Charles of Denmark, the
Queen Of Italy, the Queen Of Roumania
and the Queen Regent OF Spain. I
have no space for a list of prominent
members of the English aristoeraey
who indulge IN the fragrant weed.
