IN HIS NEW FIELD.
Father Lamper breaches his First Ser
mon to a Plymouth Congregation.

Father Lamper breaches his First Ser
mon to a Plymouth Congreg cation.
The first Sunday of Rev. Father
Lemper's administration as pastor of
st. Michael's Catholic congregation of
this city Will be remembered with JOY
by all who were present at High Mass.
The good father endeared himself to all
by the kindness and love manifested in
his Introductory sermon.
After reading the eplstle of the day
l Cor. 10: 6-13 and Luke 10: 41-47, he
referred to the love of Jesus for all man
kind, TO the feelings of affection mani
tested by him when looking on Jeru-
salem, the city of his love. The good
father told his people that the priest Of
the Catholic church must have Jesus
for his pattern in all things and es-
pecially in bis love for poor sinners
He must be Jealous for the honor and
glory of God, as Jesus was for the
glory of his Heavenly Father. He said
he was convinced that he had good
spiritual children IN the congregation
in Plymouth. He was sure they were
Jealous for the glory and honor of God
lie could not think otherwise when he
beheld the beautiful decorations and
alters adjoining the interior of the
otherwise humble house of God. He
trusted that in the years to come
more magnificent temple would be
erected for the honor and glory of the
living God. He was assured that all
would work together in peace harmony
and love, and prayed 10 the sacred
heart of Jesus for his divine blessing
upon st. Michael's congregation of
plymouth.
The attendance was large. The de
votion of the people humble and sim
cere. The singing was in strict accord
ance with the liturgy of the Catholic
church.
The services were very impressive
and could not but convince an ObServ-
er of the devotion of the the people and
the largeheartedness and love of the
reverend pastor. We join with all
good citizens of Plymouth in wishing
the reverend Father success in his new
field of labor.

British expansion through Turkey

nihcance of this will be that Great
Britain Will soon be at the back

to Russia: you shall never have
the Bosporus.' The result of this
stupendous chess playing will be
that the oriental question will be
shifted to the Pacific coast of Asia !,
which Russia has already recog-
nized, and to which she is moving
with significant strides.
"This brings us to the question of
our own attitude in the final adjust
ment. We are now great nation
that must be reckoned with in the
future affairs of mankind. There
is no choice open to us. The world
has become so small through steam
and electricity that we must take a
hand. We are no longer hermit

pecially in Pacific waters, will be
watched with great interest and

During Mr.. Webster's stay here he has
made many friends, and what is more
has given bis gallery reputation that

larger than Plymouth. His removal
from our city will be deeply regretted
by friends and patrons.

Father MOench at Valparaiso.

Rev. l.. A. MOench, the future pastor
of st. Paurs Catholic church, arrived in
the city last evening from Plymouth on
the 7:2l Fort Wayne train A merry
crowd of perhaps fifty of his parishon-
ers gathered at the depot to welcome
him In the name of the congregation,
and when the train rolled up to the
station each of their countenances as
sumed look of searching expectancy.
AS the reverend gentleman was alight-
ing his identity was discovered to the
crowd and from then until he reached
the waiting hack was period of in
cessant handshaking. He was driven
to the PASTORAL residence, where large
number had congregated. and second
right royal Ovation was given him.
Rev. Meonch comes here highly rec
commended, and we predict for him a
long and successful pastorate.
Rev. Moench has been promoted to
Dean and receives the title of Very
Rev. on taking charge of the parish in
this carbohydrates Star.

Laid to Rest

The funeral services of Katherine
Mcdonald were held Friday afternoon
at the residence of her father on North
Michigan street.
The number of her friends who came
to pay their last solemn respects was
very large.
Rev. III. Y. Reed, of Chicago, con-
Quoted the services, after which the re-
mains were laid away in Oak Hill Gem
etery.
Miss Mcdonald was dearly beloved
by many, and there are others beside
those to whom she is nearest In kin,
who will look back upon this day as
one of the saddest in their lives.
Those from distance who attended
the funeral were: Mr.. and Mrs. Lot
Dickson and Mrs. L. w. Gilmore Of
Chicago, Mrs DIR. Gould and Mrs
George Holman, of Rochester, and Mr.
and Mrs. Will Bray, of Michigan City

THE JAIL is HAUNTED.

A Lone Black Specter Keeps Company
With Jerry kreitzer.
Jerry KreitZer, who was the sole oc-
cupant of the jail for some time, says
that something uncanny has taken up
its abode behind the bars. Several
nights ago he was aroused by the
"tOuch of an unseen hand" and got bis
eyes open just IN time to see a black
form skulk away into the shadows.
Since then he has seen the strange
visitor again and again. It's method
of vanishing is peculiar. Instead of
doing the act by the aid of lightning
and thunder, like ghosts do who guard
hidden treasures, 1t simply grows small
Ter and smaller until 1t attains the size
of rat At this stage it fingers a
brief while, when, whisk! without more
ado, it is gone.

Accident Near Etna Green.

A distressing accident happened near
Etna Green on Saturday, July %.
Thomas Sheets, farmer, was cutting
his oats and lad made but two trips
around field with his self binder,
when his little son, aged four years,
was caught by the sickle of the ma
chine and had both his feet cut off j..
The little fellow was standing in the
tall oats, which hid him from Wow, and
the father drove the reaper over him.
His first intimation of an accident was
when he felt the machine shaking after
it struck the child. Looking down to
see what was the cause of the vibra-
ton, he was Mortified to see his little
son in the agonies of death. The
father picked up his son and hurried to
the house, but had only reached it
when the little fellow passed away.
Besides having both feet cut off, the
little fellow was injured internally. He
was unconscious, and apparently suf-
fered no pain from the time of the acct
dent until be breathed his last, which
was about an hour. The father was
very much distracted over the affair.

ANDREWS PREDICTS TROUBLE.


E. Benjamin Andrews. superin-
tendent of the schools of Chicago
and late president of Brown univer-
slty, in recent discussion on
European Politics predicted that
Emo would soon be plunged into
a great continental war into which
the United States would be dragged
if it did not go in of its own accord
After speaking of his travels in
MOhammedan lands, he touched
upon the Turkish question and said
"The greater part of the Turkish
question is that of the occupation of
ASIA, and that leads to the question
of European war. Almost every
thing in the social and political out
look in Europe points to an impend-
ing great war. The money power
is the great force in the preservation
of peace in Europe. The .loanable
billions are chiefly in the hands of
the jews, people that dislike war
and love thrift. Another great
peace power has been the ignorance
as to the effectiveness of the compli-
Gated military armament of the
present day. The present war with
Spain will cast great light on this
difficulty, and the eyes of Europe
are upon us. Some things are al
ready settled, and one is that almal-
gam armor is better than steel for
warships.
"I am for peace, but believe a
continental war is impending. And
Great Britain, l believe, has the
greatest chance of coming out first
in the CONFUSION. But a still great
er factor, significant for Great
Britain, is the constant bend of the
British mind for conquest, though
Gladstone consistently combated
further British imperialism in his
later years. Cecil Rhodes is work

WANT A SPECIAL SESSION.

Representative Wise has received
a communication from indianapolis
asking him to sign petition to
Gov. Mount wherein he with other
representatives offer their services
free in case special session is called
for the purpose of enacting a law
authorizing the Indiana soldiers to
vote in the field. This is a foolish
proposition and has so been con-
strued by Mr.. Wise. Such a law
would be unconstitutional and the
constitution cannot be amended ex-
cept in the manner itself prescribes.
The indianapolis Journal in relation
to this special session talk says: at
may be unfortunate that the consti-
tuition prevents such an enactment,
but, as it does, nothing can be done
until it is amended. The special
session talk should cease.

The highest price ever reached
by wheat was SIS per bushel in
1872. The extraordinary price was
due to the failure of the English
crop and very high tariff on
cereals. In November of 1866
wheat sold at $2.o5 in Chicago and
during the following spring "cor-
ner" sent the price of Sass by
May. In 1888 wheat went up to
81 as the result of "corner," but
such instances are rare. The recent
Letter "corner" brought the price
up to about $I.6o in in local mar
kets for few days.

WILL 1T BE PEACE -?

Spain has at last come to her
senses and has sued for peace. Her
ideas of honorable surrender have
been smashed and she has at last
been obliged to appeal direct to
President Mckinley. She has in
fact lost all her possessions in the
western hemisphere, her navy has
been destroyed and her treasury ex-
hausted. The president certainly
should show her no favors. She
has been vanquished by the power
of American arms and she must pay
dear for her experience.

Prince Bismark is dead. In his
death the world loses one of its
most commanding figures. Among
the names of the European states
men of the nineteenth century
whose achievements have illustrated
the history of their times there is
not a name more renowned than
that of Bismarck. He was the
'sstrong man" of his generation.
He possessed the genius of power.
He it was who laid the foundation
and crowned the edifice of the new
German empire. He transformed
the map of Europe. He overthrow
or Inundated the potentates who
stood in his way. He gained the
chief object of his desire, gained it
through the ways and by the
methods of a conquerer.

HARVARD NOTES.

Cambriige. Mass Jan. 23.-One OF the most i'm
portant incidents which has occurred at Harvard
for years was the mass-meeng held Tuesday even
ing i'm the interest OF the University Club. Fogg

away for want OF to stand. Several repre-
sensatva speakers introduced all OF whom
spoke in hearty approval of the proposed club
Among those who spoke were G. G. Murchie. Of the
Law School: President Dorald. Of the Junior Glass:
Captain Goodrich and Charles erik. The speakers
pointed out that the proposed club would inevitably
tend to bring graduates into more close relation
with the life OF the University to weld all Of the
University into and create the Harvard spirit.
to aid especially In supporting athletics and TO bring
out fully the democratic spirit for which Har-
ward has always stood. A resolution was unani-
rnously adopted expressing the desire Of the Uni
versiy for and pointing the advantages Of such
a club. At the close of the meeting several hundred
students formed and marched about the yard,
headed by the Harvard Band.
