"THE PASSION Play"
Topic Of Father Cleary's Lecture Palm
Sunday Night.

A rich treat is in store for those who
will visit St. Charles church next Sudl-
day evening. AS fitting opening for
Holy Week, Father Cleary will edify and
instruct the public with his famous lee
ture on the Passion Play Palm Sunday
night. The lecture will be illustrated
with a choice selection OF dissolving
views. All who were present at the
church of the Immaculate Conception a
few weeks ago, were greatly delighted
with Father Cleary's splendid lecture.
As next Sunday evening will probably
be the last opportunity the public here
in Minneapolis will have to hear this
great lecture and view the attractive
scenery of Oberammergau, there is sure
to be crowded house. Admission only
IS cents.

FROM The CAPITAL.

The announcement of the advent Of
a Hoytian farce is always heralded with
considerable pleasure by local theatre
goers who are decidedly partial to Hoy
tan comedies and especially the early
efforts Of this popular author. Promi-
nent critics long ago conceded that OF
his numerous creations "a Midnight
Bell' was the best. This popular come
dy will be seen at the Grand Opera
House the coming week. "a Midnight
Bell' tells delightful story of life in
rural New England and the comedy is
said to be natural and not brought out
by any play for vulgarism.
The death of Mrs M. ]. Donovan

months.

of the Heavenly Rest. who in speaking
at the memorial service for the Windsor
dead on Monday last said, mo nobler

"A great deal of interest has been ex
cited by Professor Atwater's announce
ment, after long and. careful expert
ments, that alcohol, when taken into
the human stomach, is force produc'
ing substance, even when it does not
make muscle. The generally accepted
idea that alcohol is a poison, he says
has to be modified. The amount Of dis
cussion which this decision, coming as
it does from an authoritative source,
has produced is prodigious. But il
should not be overlooked, as it Is over
looked in some quarters, that Professor
Atwater distinctly says that the inju-
dicious use Of alcohol Is destructive.
His decision, which is simply q matter
of chemistry, does not materially alter
the moral aspects Of the liquor QUESTION:
IF alcohol makes man beat his wife,
the wife does not need an expert to tell
her that It has added energy to the sys,
tenn, but she is very apt to know, quite
az well as the professor, that 1t lessons
