CHICAGO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA.

The Chicago Sympony Orchestra under the auspices of the Y. M. .. Az will appear at the association Halls Wednesday, Nov. 9. In referring to the former, much may be claimed for them, as their makeup and char acter entitle them to distinction. The organization is composed pf fifty persons. MT. Adolph Rosen- becker is a bright particular star in the musical Armament. In the arr rangement of his programs he ca ters to the public taste, an innova- tion in orchestral onduetorship.
 Mr. Wm. H. Sherwood is we'll known to our citizens, and little not already said can be claimed for him. Mme. Ragna Lynne, soprano, has a superb voice, with the low tones of first-class mezzo and an upper register of remarkable range power and quality.
 MT. Heinrie Myer is qualified fos' any understanding to which the mn- sically educated voice may be adapta- ted. In opera. oratoric or lyric work he is equally proficient. As "Abs berich" in Wagner's "Rheingold's his performance is surpassing. He has been engaged by the Chicago A4olo Club for Sampson and DeIi- lah, tribute to his oratorical qualifications. He has at his con- mand four languages-English. Ger man, French and Italian.
 The Orchestra is COD posed of for ty-five instrnmentalists, especially selected for the character of work they have to perforS. They have one and all been associated at va rious times with the leading orchos- tras of the country. Their precision, attack and proficiency, under tue able directOrship of their distinguish ed leader, will prove musical treat Pine Blaffians will be sure to avail themselves of.

VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Was Rev. W. D. Buckner to the
 Secretary of War.

Rev. w.. D. Buckner, rector of Trinity Episcopal church, of this city, has just received official notifi- cation of hls recommendation as one of the first ten army chaplains in the regular army to serve in the Philli- pines by Bishop Satterlee, of Wash | ington, D. C., to the Secretary of
 War.
 After conversation with Rev. Buchner we received the following information. That while he felt the high honor conferred upon him by the Bishop he did not feel that he could leave the people here feeling that ties of friendship and duty are as strong here now as he could hope to make them in the service of his country and for his church in the Philippines. He said that he would willingly sacrifice all this, but being importuned as he was. that not withstanding the pleasant journey he would miss and the hospitable treatment that would be accorded him, still he did not feel that he would be justified in accepting. If Rev. Buckner accepts he will then receive his appointment at the hands of the Secret ary of War. Rev. Buckner would be a commissioned officer of the army with full privilege to resign at any time he saw fit.
 It gives the Graphic pleaure to chronicle. the fact that Rev. Buck her does not anticipate leaving us; and while we regret to see him lose the many pleasures the trip would afford him, both as to knowledge of the Philippines and otherwise, still we console ourselves that we will not loose the many pleasures his presence would afford his congrega- ton and the public generally in this community. Rev. Buckner is an af- fable and congenial gentleman and his absence would be as a light go- ing out. We hope he will still stick to his first conclusion and not ac- |cept the appointment.

form to Gods will. Keep free from every sin, no matter how small. AS soldiers preparing for battle let us make our lives perfect. Strive, too, to develop those traits which are present in every true Christ like life. Love for our fellow men, nor al courage. perseverance in this work and many others. Next VI we make our example perfect. Cur example is a silent influence, but a mighty one. Necessary to be pre- else Tn everything that we do, that we do not cause our brother to of- fend.
 Next, in our individual work through life strive to help our fellow men-s trive to better humanity But beyond this let us be soul-win- ners for the Savior. Let us try to save a soul.
 Let us strive to iatensify our Christian lives by every effort to work for Christ. Realize that our object in life is to serve Christ, not our own selfish aims. Thus will we keep faith and works insep- arable in our lives. We will crown our faith in Jesus Christ by giving of our best efforts for the advance melt of the kingdom. The meeting was then thrown open for testlmo. ny.

 The subject of the sermon by Fath- CT Lucey Sunday was the efficacy of the seven sacraments.
 "God the Son, our Saviour, rescued the world from the power of Satan, established divine agency on earth to guide people from earth to heay- en and placed in vast treasury abundant grace to help man to tn ake tae journey. All this would have been insufficient if means had not been established whereby grace was to be conveyed from thediyine treas ury to the human soul. The vast reservoir os water of the water works company would not be Of much practical value to the citizens which conduct the water to every home. Without the Saeraments to convey grace to the soul, the vast treasury purchased by the passion and death of Christ would not be of great value to the human race.
 s'The saeramen1s are seven in number. adapted tO the seven special wants of humanity. They work their effects from their own intrinsic power. The sacramental rites of the old law were useful and even Deces- sary. There were many of them such as circumcision, eating the pas cha. lamb, abIutions and the expia- tory sacrifices. These saeramental rites did not produce their effects from intrinsic merit, but from the filth of those who employed them. The people of the old law were saved by faith in the redeemer to come. They were justified by faith. The sacramental rites of the old law, like baptism and Lords supper at present in protestant churches, were merely signs or pledges that the per son was justified by faith.
 'The 8 teraments of the new law. ,cording to the teaching of the Cathol.c church, produce jus iica- tion. They sanctify of their in- herent merit. Just us a coal of fire produces heat, 50 the sacraments produce a state of grace. Many a person goes to confession, the abs o- lution of the priest acting for Christ makes him free. just as the pardon of the governor of the state restores a criminal to the rights of citizen ship.

The meeting Sunday was held in the parlor. Good singing was en- joyed. The Secretary gave a short talk on Christian work.
 Faith without works is dead. be- ing alone. Both are related; eoth go together, and are inseparable. That trusting faith in Jesus Christ as the rock of our salvation, and the desire to work for Christ must be present in every true Christiaa life. We must work to maintain the spir- itual life which God gives us. Must work to keep from growing cold and indifferent to the Master. We then see the necessity for work in every Christian life-wo-k for Christ. What can the individual Christian do?
