AGONY IN THE GARDEN.
Father Burke Tells the Story of
Jesus ia Gefhsemane

The Rev. Edmund J. Burke. assistant
rector Of st. Aioysius Church. preached
an interesting sermon last evening. He
took for his subject the Agony in the
Garden
1t was the story ofsthe sufferings Of
Jesus Christ In the Garden of Geth-
semane on The night preceding Ills death
on Calvary.
The story was beautifully told; not only
were the sunerings of our Lord on that
night related but also the scene, which
took place on the day following were
graphically described.
Father Burke also told of the sufferings
Of others who had given up their lives
rather than renounce their belief in God.
At such times, he said, il might appear
that God has forsaken as and has ceased
to love Us. This however, is not so, for
IL is really in such moments of trial that
His love is greatest, as Is shown by the
rewards bestowed for our sufferings.
Father Burke also spoke of the power
and efficacy of prayer and in concluding
said that five minutes Of sincere prayer
and confession at the feet OF Jesus
Christ was worth more than the efforts
Of q whole life time in endeavoring 10 OBJ
tain consolation from the world.

Mr.. Santelmann vas born in Narrower

years in the military band at Leipsic. and
at the expiration of his term entered the

Mr. Santemanu is an ardent admirer

SOCIAL AND PERSONAL.

A large. and fashionable gathering heard
Mrs II: u. Money. wife of Senator
Money of Mississippi, deliver q lecture
on "Womans Part in the Progress of the
World. in the parlors of the Washing
ton Club last evening. The lecture was
delivered with that Southern grace and
charm of manner characteristic of the
speaker and was listened to very atten-
lively from the beginning. Minister WI,
who. during his residence here as the
representative of the Chinese Empire. has
taken an especial interest in the advance
of the American woman as manifested in
club and social organizations, was pres
ent. as were also several members of the
Japanese legation.
Mrs Money said that women had not
reached the limit of her sphere for doing
good, and that with her power and in
tuence she should III the future elevate
mankind in every field of thought and
soul Where history showed woman to
nave been most highly honored and ,e-
Spected, woman was there found to exert
the greatest influence for freedom and
the highest intelligence. and this she
thought was the mission of woman in
the world. Soul knowledge and physical
perfection. the speaker thought consti-
tuted the fullness of human perfection
and the nearer woman approached that
ideal and welded her influence from that
high ideal the nearer the human race
would approach perfection She said
| there in many instances that piety on
earth was due more to the influence of
good women than to the teachings of
theologians.
