the Blessed Virgin on the wooden altar.
This image has been elevated, and right
ly, too after so great a miracle, to the
highest point on the facade of the pres

ond Lady of the Rosary. who today is
carried in procession around the church
during her nine days fiesta, took her
place within. This second image was
constructed by an idolatrous Chino, under
the direction OF the Spanish captain
Don fernando de los Rios, at the eX-
pense OF the captain general of Manila
The Chino artist was converted to Cath
olicism and the Spanish captain to the
order of the priesthood, and both lived
exemplary lives.
Santo Domingo is a Gothic church of
pure style in respect to the pointed
arches the elevation of the nave and
the piers with their verticed burrows.
The rose windows of stained glass soften
the morning light. while the many cam
delabra on the high altar and votive
candles to "Nuestra Sonora" make the
evening light Here is the only chapel
in the church, but In the side aisles
are many affairs The choir rail is of
exquisltely carved wood and the music
which comes from behind it of such
beauty that the virgin is glorit1ed and
the old Filipino women crouched on the
floor of the holy water fount and at the
foot of the beautiful little stairs of the
pulpit must dream dreams of paradise
beyond expression. The exterior of the
church has the earmarks of Gothic as
we'll: the tower over the unien Of the
transept and nave, the Strengthening
buttresses surmounted by pinnac,es, the
| pointed arches which finish the stained
! glass windows of the first story and
! the rose windows which mark the upper
! line. The towers of the facade are
! square and ugly, as is the large tower.
! There Is an unpretentious court yard
on which the convent opens. and the
/ cloisters look cool and inviting.

On one of the principal streets of the
quaint old town of Brookyille, in a
weatherbeaten two-story frame house,
the binds to one of the windows of which
have remained closed for sixty-five years,
lives a woman whose life has been a
mystery to the two generations That
have grown up during her self-inforced
seclusion, without having SO much as
glimpse of her or ever having been adj
mitted to her room. In the sixty-1ve
years of her sec,Usion the population has
changed two or three times, and today
there are few who know that the
hermit exists, and fewer still who
can recall the days when, for some un-
explained reason, she shut herself up in
her room and babe a final adieu to the
social circles of which she was admitted
ly the brightest. ornament.
1t was in the0days of canal building in
Indiana that HadIey Johnson and Phoebe
Meeks met each other, and it was not
long till rumor coupled their names as
lovers. Both were the children of we'll
TODD parents, and both were young and
aspiring. After a time their intimate
friends were Informed that they were
engaged, and their marriage was to take
place in June. - This was in 1885 or 1886,
and Brookvilles was then the most i'm
portant town in the infant state and the
scene of much of the gayety and fashion
Of those primitive times.
COT ,MIFFED.
One evening, a few weeks before the
day appointed for the wedding, Hadley
Johnson and Phoebe Meeks and three
other couples wandered down the canal
banks near the basin and seated them
selves to watch the boats es they moved
lazily by The lovers and their friends
seemed to be in the best of spirits. Sud
denly rising from the canal bank, and
without uttering a word in explanation
of her conduct, Miss Meeks turned her
back on her friends and walked hurried
ly away. Mr.. Johnson called to her,
but received no response, and after a
while he followed her home, but the
house was dark and he forbore to in
trude.
The next morning he called to learn
what had occurred to offend the young
woman, but she refused to see him or to
offer word In explanation. Letters
sent to her by the mystified lover were
returned unopened, and Johnson was
finally obliged to accept the situation
ana give up AlOp0 OIL 16dTDl0S wherein
he had displeased her. Month after
month passed, and Miss Meeks remain
ed in her home, and rumor said that she
remained as well in her own room, the
blinds to which were now always shut.
BUsYBoDIEs LEARNED NOTHING.
People marveled at this strange action
and busybodies went to the house, but
they came away no wiser than they
went for the ether members of the fam
lily refused to fdiseuss the subject at all,
and met all references to it so coldly
that even the most inquisitive were soon
deferred from asking questions. The
father and mother died, but Miss Phoebe
heard the funeral sermons only from
an adjoining ROOM. to which no one else
was admitted. and did not even follow
the bodies to the graves. The months

Mission ut ST. Al;lr.y'S

The mission now being held at St Mary
Church, conducted by Rev. Father Gregg
ry, Of the Passionist Fathers, is being
largely attended, the capacity of the

larry for the young people of St Mary's,
all others, regardless of their religious af-
filiatiOns are welcome and Will be cour-
teously seated by the ushers. Next week

mission will be held in German for the
older members Of the congregation. This
mission Will also be conduced by one of
the priests of the Passionist Order.
Rev. Father Gregory, who is conducting
the present mission in English, possesses
more than ordinary ability as an orator.
and the clear and logical manner in which
he presents his subject holds the closest
attention Of his auditors throughout his
entire discourse. His power and elOquence
are only eQualled by the earnest and fer
vent manner in which he impresseS upon
mis- hearers the mighty truths OF Scrip
ture.
The order Of services during the mission
are as follows: Masses at five, half-past
five and eight O'Clock in the morning. witt,
short instructions after the half-past five

A POLITICAL ROW.
Appeal Taken Against Fines for AS
Suult in tcDID!icau Conventions

Last week we mentioned that D. 81
Lewis, Jr.. John T. Lewis and Charles A
Hammer had been fined SEQ each, and NJ.
NJ. Jarman Z. L. Dechert S. y. Davis and
c. W. Fletcher S25 each. on the chnrge of
assaulting John Acker last spring at the
Republican County Convention.
The defendants asked Judge Grattan to
set the verdict aside as contrary to the
law and evidence. This he declined to do,
saying, however, that in so doing he was
not passing upon the guilt or evidence of
the parties. but that the evidence had been
very contradictory and in such he did not
set .verdicts aside.
He announced, however. that he would
disallow about s16o of costs charged
against the defendants by Mayor Switzer
and all unnecessary costs, if any. in the
trial before the jury.
Notice was given that an appeal would
be taken to the Court of Appeals, and
sentence was suspended for thirty days in
order to allow the attorneys to prepare
the record in the case.-Sprit of the VAL
