of the object for which they strive.
 "The God of heaven himself came down from his throne and was born as lowly mortal for the salvation of human souls. His humble youth, his fast for forty days, his ministry, his passion in the Garden of Gethsenane, his sufferings on Calvary, the wounds that pierced that holy body, and the cross itself will cry out for you, O mortal man, for you and your souls sal vation.'
 "If one man alone had had the misfortune to be the only sinner, Christ would have endured again all his sufferings for this souls salvation.
 .The death of God should open your eyes and reach your heart and convince you of the value of one poor soul.
 Think what treasure the humblest man carries with him and it only rests with him by a few years of patience and fidelity to win the laudits and rewards of the Creator.''
 After the lecture the members of the Bronson club and a number. of their friends adjourned to the St. Paul's temperance hall where delightful banquet was served. The tables were very prettily set and decorated and the banquet served in courses. Speeches of welcome to Father the Bronson club were made by H. H. Sinnige, president of the club; W. B. Me- Crossin, Father Powers, Rufus N. Rhodes, Father ORiley, Father Deberne, of Selma, and Geo. Cruikshank.

BRIDE AT FOURTEEN YEARS MoIIie E. Smith and Charlie links
 Married Yesterday. THE SEQUEL TO ASAD STORY Groom Returned to Prison After the Ceremony Indictment Nol Prossed-The Mothers
 Part-Many Spectators Present.

In the presence of a large number of spectators in the circuit court room yester-
 day Judge J. J. Banks united in marriage
 Charlie links and Mollie E. Smith. links, who is at present serving a four months term at Coalburg for creating a disturbance on a street car, was brought into court in charge of an officer. His ap- pearance was not in accord with the usual
 custom on such occasions, having just been brought from the mines to stand trial upon
 the charge of criminal intimacy with Mollie E. Smith, girl under 14 years of age When the links case was reached, Mrs. F. E. Smith, the mother of the girl, who
 was present with her daughter, arose and stated that it was the desire of all parties
 concerned that the couple should be mar ried, and upon her stating in open court
 that the girl was IA years of age, the so-
 licitor withdrew his objections, and the
 couple took a position in front of Judge Banks, who performed the ceremony. The girl, mere child in appearance, was dressed in a blue skirt reaching to her
 knees, brown cape and blue Tam O'Shanter gaily bedecked with several colored feathers. When Judge Banks pro- | nounced them man and wife the indictment charging criminal intimacy against links
 was mol pressed and the bridegroom of few moments was taken back to Coalburg to complete his four months sentence. It will be remembered the complications that have arisen in connection with this charge against links, who was arrested
 several weeks ago and put in jail on an indictment found by the grand jury. Mrs. Smith, the mother of the girl, pro-
 cured @ marriage license for the couple on
 an affidavit that her daughter was IA years of age, and the party appeared before Judge Banks, links being brought from jail. The judge was about to perform the ceremony, when Solicitor Ferguson inter
 posed an objection on account of the indict- ment against links, and Judge Banks re-
 fused to perform the ceremony. links was
 subsequently tried another charge and
 sentenced to Coalburg.
 In the meantime the grand jury returned an indictment against Mrs. Smith, charging her with perjury in having sworn falsely.
 She was arrested on Christmas eve, and spent Christmas day in prison, but was
 released by Judge Banks on her own re- conizance.
 | During the time that the mother was in jail the girl went to the house of Mrs Cook, in Second avenue, and when an off, she fled from the house and disappeared ! until yesterday, when she became the bride | of links.

SPECIAL MEETING
Of the Birmingham Trades Council Held Last
 Last Night.

A special meeting of the Birmingham Trades Council was held last night in Clerks hall, corner Third avenue and Nine- teenth street, which was largely attended.
 The meeting was called for the purpose of receiving the report of the grievance committee in regard to the Brewery Work ers' grievance.
 fhe committee, which held an investiga- ton on Tuesday night, made its report to the meeting, and it is said to have been a very able one, showing thorough investi- gation on the part of the committee.

CUBAN COMMISSIONERS.
They May Reside at EI VedadO While
Engaged at Havana

Havana Sept. Y, p m.-The American
evacuation commissioners, it is thought
probable, will select places of residence
during the stay of the commission, at Ell
Vedado beautiful village five miles west
of Havana, on the coast, just beyond Pun
ia Bravo. There is excellent sea bathing
there. The neighborhood is aristocratic,
and there is regular steam transit between
the village and the city.
The Trocha theater at Ell Vedado. for
merly used as a hotel, has been offered
10 the commissioners on lease, the own
ers undertaking to install electric light
put In baths and other comforts, and to
have all ready for use within a week
Doubtless the offer will be accepted. The
commissioners are still living aboard the
transport, and under the naval regulations
they and their aide are obliged to return
from shore daily at p. m.
While on land the commissioners spent
most of the time at the Union Club where
every courtesy is extended them. All
breakfasted on shore this morning, and
crowds gathered to watch them. They
express themselves as much pleased with
Havana, and are making their arrange
ments for a long stay, probably for cou-
pie of months.
No date has been fixed definitely yet for
the first official session of the commission
the first meeting being only for an ex-
change of credentials. The instructions
from Washington direct that the decisions
which are the outcome of the sessions,
shall be secret.
Gen. Bianco has protested Officially
against the mputations and accusations
of Count d Almenas in the Spanish Sen
ate. and military officers here keenly re-
sent the insult
The Spanish gunboats Intrepida and
Antonio Lopez arrived to-day from Glbara
and Nuevtas, shortly followed by the
Legazpi, with Gen. Luques division, in
cluding thirty-two sick soldiers.
The correspondent of El impartial of
Madrid who has been imprisoned provis-
ionally at Cabanas fortress, was released
this afternoon.
The wharves of Havana are now filed
with provisions, for which 1t is impossible
to get transit. The papers are urging the
police to clean the wharves, and to take
special precautions against the continu-
ance of '1mrorul and uncivilized scenes"
