| on several occasions, his lecture delivered
at the opera house in this city last winter
being heard by large audience and his
effort commended. His address Sunday
was on an occasion when naturally he
would be deeply moved, and the words
fell from his lips with an earneestness
and eloquence which impressed his hear
ers with his religious zeal aud enthusiasm.
The bishop was dressed in cape aud
beretta when he appeared to deliver his
address. He was accompanied by Father
O'ReilIy, OF this city, and Father Francis,
of Higginsviile.
Bishop Glennon in commencing his
speech expressed his pleasure at once
more being given the privilege of address
| ing the citizens of Lexington. He spoke
highly OF the spirit of the organization
which had enabled them to surmount the
obstacles which had opposed them. and
likened their spirit to that which had
builded cathedrals in all the large cities OF
Europe. He said: "Whatever be the
clash of creeds and prejudice, there Is
deep down in the heart a feeling OF
admiration for the work being done by
this church. I feel there is sympathy
and approval in every heart here"
He expressed his appreciation for the
help which people of other denomina-
tIons had given them, and thanked them
heartily for their liberality. lie compli'
mented the members of the church ON the
work which they were doing, and said:
'The fact that you can build temples is
greater honor than mere material inter-
ests. The cross above this church shall
stand for all thati best. We build not to
preach anarchy. but 10 preach the blessed
gospel of Christ. We are not welded to
any party, and are not tied to any narrow
principles. Oar views are broad aud our
policy liberal"
Continuing, he spoke as follows:
Religion is one of the strongest realities
in the world. 1t is unconsciou ly play
ing n the faces of smiling children, 1t is
spoken In the delirium OF fever; its hopes
brighten the gloom that hangs DER the
face of the dead. For the vast majority of
the children of men it Is their staff OF
support to help them in the journey OF
life; and in it they place their hope of a
better world when this life's fever Is over.

further to the south than the ancient
Norwegian town of Hammerfest, where
men make shift to live comfortably the
year round. To be sure there is no gulf
stream to temper the iron frosts of
Klondike. and the average winter cold
Is 20 degrees below zero; but there are
warm winds from the Pacific in the
summer that make the climate far from
forbidding. The average temperature
for the summer months is SO degrees,
and the 81 degree mark is by no means
unknown to the mercury. 1t is. of

barley. oats and rye ripen freely, and
ordinary vegetables can be cultivated

trunks even attain a diameter of two
feet where the forest is not crowded.
