THE CHOICE OF RELIGIONS.
Fnther Powers Sermon on "Is One
Religion rs Good as Anothers"

ReIfEion rs Good as AnOthers"
The first two weeks of the mission at
the Cathedral of st. John the Baptist by
the Jesuit fathers, OConnor and Power.
ended yesterday.
At the morning service Father O'Con-
nor preached an able and interesting SER
mon on The Holy Eucharist" The ca
thedral was filled to overlooking at Soth
the morning and evening services. Every
pew was filled and many were standing
in the aisles and near the doors. The
fathers have been most successful in en-
listing the interest of Catholics In the mis-
sion, and there is no doubt its results will
be widely felt.
Father Power preached last night on
the query us One Religion as Good as
Another?' He began his discourse with
an explanation of the attitude of the
Christ toward the church and said that
His efforts had been always for the sane
tification, first OF the church. and through
it, of the world. The Son of God I'd
vocated the authority of head
for the church. and preached that unless
this power rested in that head the govern
ance of the world by the church would be
impossible. The unity of the church was
the important doctrine always upheld by
Jesus and his apostles, for 1t is the work
vision is the weakness that accomplshes
but little.
This question of unity, Father Power
said is that upon which the success of
the church depends, and 1t is the idea
then that there should be one body, one
church, one faith.
as one religion as good as another?'
I'm those days had the question been
asked" said Father Power, at would not
have been understood. 1t would have Deen
thought that the questioner meant to ask
If he should embrace the faith of the
Jews or Christianity, for such differences
in the Christian belief, as shown now in
tho various denominations and creeds
were unknown. There was then but the
one great church; now the church is-divid-
ed into many denominations, each with the
belief that it's views are correct. What
would the Christ or st. Paul or st. Peter
think, to look down from heaven now and
see the doctrine of unity they preached
thus ignored? Now we cannot triumph
over the infidel because we are divided.
There are men In the Protestant churches
who are learned, able, conscientious and
sincere in their beliefs, and true to their
convictions, but to say that one religion
is as good as another. or that heaven
may be reached as readily through one or
through another is to say that the
shadow is as good as the substance, that
counterfeit is as good as sound money or
that hell is as good as heaven
The programme of sermon topics for the
remainder of the mission is as follows:
To-night-"The Practice Of Religion"
Tomorrow Night-"The Christian Fam
ily."
Wednesday-"Th Only Friend"
Thursday-'"The Christian Sacrifice"
Friday-"The Mother of the Redeemer"
Saturday-No evening services.
Sunday Morning-The "Frequentaton
of the Sacraments." Evening, "Final
Perseverance" -t
The mission will close Sunday.

COMING EVENTS IN CONGRESS.
.pkED CONTRAST BETWEEN THE
Work. OF THE TWO HOUSES.

-. DeIiberative Senate Expected to
pass Most of Its Time Behind
c,o.ed Doors Discussing the Ar
,.,.ratiOn Treaty-The House to
r,ter Upon "A 4-Dnys Ga-ns-YOu-
D,o.so Tariff Debate-Nlr. Bailey
% Present "a Strong Report on Be-
half Of the Minority.
washington, March 2L.-There will
,r,hablv be a marked contrast between
"a proceedings of the two houses of con-
,,.ss during the next week.
1.-THE deliberative' Senate will probably
..,ss most of its time behind closed doors,
5scussing the arbitration treaty, while
,,s House will enter upon a four days
Noncompliance tariff debate, which is
t, close at II p. m, on Thursday.
AR Bailey has prepared a strong re-
mort on behalf of the minority of the ways
and means committee, which he will lay
tof,re the House tomorrow, and Mr..
niocley has in mind a speech to offset
some of the free tariff arguments which
he sbrewdly guesses Mr.. Bailey's report
will advance.
After the general debate closes in the
umse Oh the tariff on Thursday night,
tye-minnte bouts" will be allowed I'M
dor Reed mot Queensberry) rules, until
March 81, and to give full scope to all
the pent-up eloquence, the session will
bee in each day at 10 a. m, instead of at
neon. as heretofore.
The silence of the Senate's legislative
chamber will not prevail in the commit
Zee rooms. Four great appropriation bills,
passed by the last congress and not ap-
nroved by the President, have been bodily
du,nped upon the Senate committee on
concentrations, of which Mr.. Allison is
chairman. They are the sundry civil,
general deficiency, agricultural and Indian
apuropriation bills. Each of these bills,
with one exception, goes back to the Sen
ate in the form in which it passed that
body after conference. The exception is
the "Glisonite," or asphalt item in the
Indian bill which is a matter involving
vast pecuniary interests. The item was
inserted by the Senate and was adopted in
conference after a hard struggle in the
ldst COuSItSS Dul tIc mouse, HdNluS now
a seconu chance at it, has stricken it
out.
There is small probability of the very
complicated question of seating the APP
pointed senators from Kentucky, Oregon
and Florida, coming up for action this
week. In each case the credentials have
been referred to the committee on privi-
leges and elections. Their regular meeting
day is Thursday-very close to the end of
the woek-and no special session has been
called to advance the decision of these
matters. In point of fact the questions in
yolyed are so complicated by previous de-
csions of the Senate that no rapid decis-
ion is likely to be arrived at

1t Leads to.


In the morning the snow fell as If mill

nervousness; the cough that refuses to be
quoted, and the rawness of throat and
the soreness of lung, all tell the story.

CAsoN TO BE TRIED TO-DAY.
Fifteen Year Old Boy Charged with
the Murder of Arthur Brown.

Henry Cason, a 15-year-old negro boy,
will be tried in the superior court to-day
or the charge of numbering Arthur
Brown, another negro about the same
age on Jan. 29
The two boys had quarrel, it appears,
over a Liberal Club star which Cason
was wearing, Brown having said some
thing to him about 1t a day or two be-
fore. When the two boys met on the night
in question at.West Broad and Hall streets
the difficulty was renewed, and Cason
claims Brown drew a pistol and attempt
ed to shoot him. Cason then pulled his
knife and inflicted wounds upon Brown
from which he died a few hours later.
AT the inquest CasOn was held for vol
untary manslaughter but before the grand
jury it appears there did not develop
much if any testimony to the effect that
Brown was armed with a pistol, and a true
bill was founo against Cason, charging
him with murder The merits of the case
will of course be passed upon by the jury
Cason will be defended by Messrs. A. c.
Wright and w. c. Woodfin, Considering
the youth of the participants in this en-
counter which resulted in the death of one
and the trivial circumstance over which
it began, the trial will no doubt be quite
an interesting one.
