emperors whom the world honOred as diVinl-

IT IS AGAINST ANARCHY.
It is this voice of the ages that cheers on
the forces of order against the forces of law
less socialism and anarchy, that battles for
the poor against the heartless expressions of
greed. 'Tis ever heard in the van of the
armies of noble souls who are doingeGod's
1t is the voice of Christ. No mans voice dare
boast its mighty and susta ned power. History
has written it down the voice of Peter, of
Paul, of a Constantine of an Augustine, a
Patrick Leo as the voice of lordly bishops,
or mighty pontiffs. Brethren, it is the voice
of Christ, speaking by the lips of his spouse,
the cnurcn, speaking by the uiNlnely SuSrueu
mouth of the apostolic church. of the Church
of the Catacombs and of the Coliseum. of the
church of the prisons and blood-stained
amphi-theaters Of the old world.
The church that has defended Christ
against the furious clamorings of mob after
mob who would rend Him to pieces, in rea-
sonless effort to rob Him of the Divinity
they denied Him, speaks with the same voice
that made the heart Of PLATE quail in the
presence of Christ's admission Of His diyini-
ty. And through every vicissitude of time
that church has babe the world hear its
gospel. and forbade its needing other though
that other were preached by an angel from
heaven.
The divine covenant by which our blessed
Lord bound himself to abide with His church
all days for the enlightenment of every man
that cometh into the world is public and
open document that challenges denial, and in
that divine instrument we read that He babe
men, under penalty of condemnation, be-
lieve that he who hears the church hears
Him.
But what strange and mighty power is it
that fills the doubtful and fainthearted with
courage and hope; that operates day by day,
through the ministry of the church, so
nightly for good amongst peoples civilized
and uncivilized alike; that lifts and strength
ems the arms of the valiant for the protec-
ton of the weak; that arouses and fosters

in the hearts of men an abiding love OF
righteousness. and that increases and multi
plies saints in an Ubiquitous generation, un-
less it be the power of Christ ever present
in His church, the power of enc alone able to
work such miracles of grace?
The heart CT the Father has yielded to the
prayer of His children, and God dwells
amongst them, by His teachings His power
and His presence, that men may be healed
God Is the Father of all our Father. All
men stand in need of Him. The peoples I'M
der eastern or western skies must seek His
grace would they live. And would they see
His face they must, under the leadings of His
divine voice, under the mystic charm of His
power and in the light and encouragement
the crimsoned footsteps that lead to the
Calvary Of redemption. For the reason that
He, In His infinite wisdom, chose to with
draw His visible presence from our midst He
must commit His work to other hands, and
fortify those hands with fullest power to
conduct it unto fruitful issue. For there are
lost still co be found, sick to be healed,
blind seeking sight and sheep, not of His
but one fold and one Shepherd. For this
work amongst men and for men, whom shall
He choose so likely to carry out His de-
signs save elect men amongst His brethren,
save men in sympathy with human needs,
and with His yearnings to satisfy them.

Bethren We commemorate today the daunt-

of the illustrious bishops of the primitive

gladstone and memorable for us in that we
have been privileged to assist at the laying
on of hands" upon one called to assume the
burdens of the episcopate, called to enter the
ranks of that divinely lowered body charged
with the instruction and government of the
church.
You are able to give testimony that the Sc
lection for this office was not effected with
out long continued prayer, grayest considera-
ton and counsel.
People, priests, bishops and pontiff have
shared in the solemn elaboration which has
so happily resulted in the choice of the new
~ consecrated bishop.
And the remembrance of these months
spent in prayer and counsel by the people of
his new charge, and by his elders in the
household of faith" will furnish him cour-
age and comfort in the time of suffering and
trial that comes to the servant as it came to
the master; and this comfort and courage
will come to himsthe more abundantly for the
laudable reason that he sought not this high
Office but was called by the voice of authority
and, therefore, OF God. The consciousness of
his own weakness, which springs out of the
humility upon which great sanctity is based,
has ever been with him to limit his aspira-
lions within the hope of securing generous
and clement answer to the needs of his peo-
pie. 1t is such humble, trusting, childlike
faith that wins recognition before angels and
men, and that finds itself, sooner or later
called upon to enter the field of enlarged and
higher responsibility. The living faith and
the sef-sacrificing obedience that has ever
| characterized his life merit and must win
strength for the fulf1lment of the weighty
obligations he is assuming. Rich though his
endowments in virtue learning and zeal, yet
there is naught in himself, and of his own,
upon which to rely in the contest for souls
into which he is being drawn. Christ alone
must be his support.
AS with every other bishop of the church
his sword must be forged out of the word of
Christ his strength drawn from the sacra-
ments of Christ, his bread of nourishment
found in the body OF Christ. That these
graces may be his in superabundance and to
the end, you, in union with Holy Mother
church, through the stages of this sublime
rite of his conservation, have most fervently
prayed.
Were the fountains of holy exultation
stirred within your souls when consecrated
hands were laid upon his head, and when
| with holy Chrism they gave him royal an
ointing, it was evidence Of your loving well

Christ. Upon his shoulders was laid the Book
of the Gospels, the glorious message of the
Nativity song proclaiming the advent of the
Divine Reconcfer and Peacemaker. Its rev.
elations of mercy and love divine it now be-
comes his task and privilege to bear to every
| soul within the sound of his voice. And that

of the old law and the new, and holding the

Two More Reach the Public Ear
Yesterday.

The harvest of thievery and burglaries
which is going on in the city had its reg
ular garnerings yesterday, when two rob-
berries, one in broad daylight, were perpe-
uateG.
During the early morning hours thieves
forced an entrance to Furlong's grocery store
103 West Seventh street, by breaking open a
rear door and ransacked the place. The bur-
glars were evidently only in search of cash.
as the desk and money drawer showed the
greatest disorder when their visit was dis
covered The cash drawer had been pried
open and rihed of its contents, while books
and papers were strewn about the floor. None
of the stock was taken, though portions of
it had been overhauled.
The daylight episode was the work of sneak
thieves, who stole a gold watch from the liv-
ing rooms over Bielenberg's grocery store, at
55S University avenue. Mrs. Bielenberg had
gone down stairs to speak to her husband in
the store, and upon her return, found evil
dence of hurried search of bureau. An
Investigation showed her gold watch to be
missing. The unexpected return Of Mrs. Biel-
enberg doubtless prevented a successful plum
dering of the entire apartments.
