"HAzEL KIRKE" PRESENTED.
A Large Audience Entertained Al
st. Caecilia Hall.

One Of the most enjoyable entertainments
ever given on the South Side was the pres
entation last evening of the melodrama,
Hazel Kirke," at st. Caecelia Hall, on
Union street, by members of the IS. Gaze
celia and Aloysius societies of the Sacred
Heart Church. The large hall, which has a
seating capacity of 1000. was crowded to
the doors and the audience, in its make
up, was also a study. In the front row
could be seen Father Francis Haase, the
pastor Of the church, Father Bernard.
assistant to Father Haase, and Father
Loible, of ST. Mary's Church. and Father
Lannert, of st. Josephs Church, who were
not only pleased listeners, but who, by
their presence and applause, brought to
mind the liberties enjoyed in Catholic
countries, where all similar forms of amuse-
ment receive the churchs approval and
announcement.
The play itself was given with all the
finish earnest rehearsal and talent could
accomplish and reflected credit on all the
actors. The leading roles deserve more
than passing comment, being especially
was true to the text, the speeches" nicely
shaded, and not a single cue omitted.
Much of this perfection Is due to Mr.. An
thony J. Louck. who directed the per-
Torrance and also assumed the diff
ficult role of Dunstan Kirke, playing the
part with fervor and power. The part of
Hazel Kirke was taken by Miss Elizabeth
Stolz, whose delicate Interpretation Of this
character, won the sympathy of the audi
ence. The comedy roles evoked much
laughter and were in the able hands of
Messrs. Fred Gorius, Lee c. Schludecker
and John A Lauck. The balance of the
cast included Misses Mary Fable. Maymie
Schmutte, Louisa Mueller, Margaret Fable
and Messrs. Louis c. Gorius. George M.
Fritz and A. j. Lauth. In addition to the
fine performance given, the arrangements
for the convenience of the large audience
during the play and intermissions were
perfect and credit for this fact is due to
the committee composed of Messrs. Peter
Ohleyer, Henry Raible George Clements.

child he should grow up into dark-spir-
TIED, storm-sttrrfng manZ
Jephthah's career, after being cast out
from the family home by his brothers, was
traced; his entry into the land OF TOD,
where he soon became the leader OF
band OF vain men," and made a very good
living by his valor and his wits. This
same ability for commanding afterwards
put him in position to turn the tables
upon those who had rejected and despised
him. When the Ammonites made war
against Israel Jephthah's brothers found
that they needed just such leader as he,
and they went to him and besought him 10
aid them in their hour or distress. FROM
this incident the speaker drew an apt IL
lustration Of the manner In which CHRIST
Is treated. He said:
Some people are so busy in putting their
brother aside-so full of the present good
time-so active in looking out for number
one that they forget the enemy that hangs
upon the border. Some day their window
Is darkened. and grinning deaths head
leers I'm upon them. They have forgotten
Now. what shall they do? They can only
wonder If there is any help. They must
finally think Of Him whom they despised
and reiected-the Nazarene-the Conqueror
of death and the grave. And they want to
speak word with the minister whom they
were wont to talk loudly about; they want
the kind Offices or religion Tor Wn1cn tney
had so little regard-yet, which was often
the butt of their ridicule and the occasion
for their sneers; and so they come trem-
blingly, generally with something akin to
the superstitution about which they have
so glibly prated before that expects mar
wells incredibly beyond their deserts"
The sermon was concluded with a COM
parison of Jephthah's manner Of receiving
his brothers with the way in which Christ
receives those who have scorned Him.
Jephthah first remided his kinsmen of their
former harsh treatment of him: then made
them guaranty his right to rule and COM
mand in Israel; and finally agreed 10 give
them the benefit of his knowledge of war
fare. OF Christ the minister said:
He stands ready to meet u.s. not with
reproaches. not with accusations that We
have cast Him out and trampled the blood
OF the everlasting covenant under our feet
and counted II an unholy thing, but He
meets with gentle forbearance and for
giving love; and He goes forth in our be-
half TO lead us to conquest and victory.
We can only stand, wonder, adore and
praise. Thanks be to God which giveth
US the victory through our Lord Jesus
Christ Since He is so gracious and will
ing and strong to undertake for US: since
He Is able to save us and to present us
faultless before His Fathers face. let us all
humble ourselves before Him and enthrone
Him Lord of all"

THE MURPHY MEETINGS
BIG CROWDS ASSEMBLE AT THE
MERIDIAN-sTREET CHURCH.
Ex-Mayor Denny and Ell r. Ritter
Speak i'm the Afternoon-A
Big Night Gathering.

The Francis Murphy meeting for men
terday afternoon was well attended. Many
present, however, were greatly disappoint-
ed, as Mr. Murphy did not speak, the meet
ing being devoted largely to testimonials
from those who had signed the pledge dur
ing Mr.. Murphy's former visits to this city.
Among those who were called upon to
speak by Mr.. Murphy was ex-Mayor Caleb
B. Denny. He said 1t had been his pleas
ure to introduce Mr.. Murphy to his first
Indianapolis audience, and since that time
he had always made 1t point to attend
the Murphy meetings whenever Mr.. Muir
ply was In the city. He said he believed
in the kind of temperance that Francis
Murphy taught, for it was much better
to try to win men from drink by per-
suasion than by compulsion. He said 1t
was human nature to be led rather than
driven He spoke of the great work that
had been accomplished by Mr.. Murphy In
Indianapolis. and said there was much yet
to be accomplished. Said he: 1.-THE time
is coming when Indianapolis will be with
out saloon. and 1t is such men as Mr..
Murphy who will bring about that happy
high tribute to Mr.. Murphy. He said there
was not a man in Indianapolis. no diff
ference what his walk in life, but was
kindly disposed to Francis Murphy.
Eli F. Ritter spoke of the great good
that had been accomplished by the MUIR
ply League in this city. Said he: There
comes the time in the lives of those who
drink, when they think the whole world
is against them, and it is just at this time
that Francis Murphy comes along and
saves them. He only asks man to do
the best he can for himself, and. 1t is a
poor man that will not respond to the CALL :"
Mr.. Ritter advised all those present to
come forward and sign the pledge saying
that 1t would be the wisest thing they had
ever done in their lives. He said that
like Mr.. Murphy he was in favor of a
strike against the saloonkeepers. Said he:
81 am not opposed to the man who runs
the saloon, for there is not man In this
city for whom would not get up at mid
night If / could in any way be Of help to
him, but would also get UP at midnight
at any time to oppose any business that
tends to drag down humanity"
There were quite number who told OF
the great benefit that came to them be-
cause of having signed the temperance
pledge A great deal Of enthusiasm was
manifested at the meeting, and many
signed the pledge before its close.

PATRICK O'NEIL'S DEATH
CAUSES THE ARREST OF JAMES l..
BROWN AND WALTER RUTLEDGE.
The Men Claim They Will BE Able to
Clear ThemseIves-O'NeiI In
jurcd Saturday Night.

Patrick ONeil, laborer living at 1865
River avenue. died last night at his home
from injuries received about 10 p. m. Sat-
urday. and for which James l.. Brown.
a saloon keeper, at 1lO2 West Morris street.
West Indianapolis. and ONeil's son-in-law,
Walter Rutledge. 1915 Kentucky avenue
are said to be responsible. Brown and
Rutledge were arrested last night and sent
to police headquarters under charges of
assault and battery with intent to kill.
but before they arrived, word was received
to change the charge to murder, O'Neii
having died few moments after their de-
parture.
Both Brown and Rutledge claim inno-
Genes of any wrongdoing and attribute
ONeil's death to accident, too much liquor
and a naturally quarrelsome disposition.
Both say they will have no difficulty in
clearing themselves OF the charges made.
and they talked freely of the case. with the
exception of alleged trouble between Rut-
ledge and O'Neil early In the evening.
Patrolmen Brooks and Oakley heard of a
fight at the saloon and went last night to
ONeirs house. where they learned of his
serious condition. They at once went out
moments later O'Neil died.
Brown said Rutledge had been in his sa-
loon for some little time Saturday night
and O'Neil came in about 10 o'clock. He
was drunk, he claimed. but this was not
noticed until after he drank one glass of
beer. O'Neu and Rutledge got into an ar
gument and ONeil became very boisterous
and abusive. whereupon he went around
the bar, took ONeil by the arm and led
him to the door, starting him on his way
home. He said that O'Neil was so drunk
that he was unable to handle himself, and
in an effort to prevent his being put out,
fell from the doorstep, which Is about two
feet above the walk. He struck his head
on the step and lay on the walk at the side.
He was picked up by two friends and
escorted to his home.
He was at once put into bed and his wife
thought he was drunk and did not call
physician. Early last evening DR.. Eisen-
beiss was called and found at once large
fracture Of the skull on the left side of the
head. He was unable to revive O'Neil
and resorted to an operation the only
means of saving his life. Under the skull
as a mans fist. O'Neil showed at once
some signs Of improvement, but the pres
sure on the brain was too long continued,
and he died about three hours later with
out having recovered consciousness.
O'Neil was married and leaves a widow
and seven children. His death seems to
have been due to neglect. under the i'm
preston that he was intoxicated and not
injured. He was much given to drinking
He had at such times given the police con-
siderable trouble.

IN THE CITY CHURCHES
CHRIsT's HUMANITY AND DIVINITY
DISCUSSED BY DIR. c. Il. BACON.
Evening Sermon mt Roberts Park
Church-Rev. Mr.. Meserve mt
Plymouth-Other Services.

Rev. c. E. Bacon, Of Roberts Park
Church. preached on the Combined Char
acteristics of Christs Humanity and Di-
vinity." last night. He said that Christ
was the appointed ruler OF all things and
is heir to the whole universe. He said:
Here is the one representative heir OF all
things. Christ sits on the throne OF the
world and is the ruler OF all worlds. The
worlds are ruled by the extention Of His
power as a divinity. He creates all that
belongs TO this world that is reveling in the
gift OF time. BY him all things consist.
The power radiates from the divine son
and is an expression of His divinity. He
stands at the helm OF nature. This is not
a forsaken world for He rules the land
and seas. keeps the planets and the whole
universe in equilibrium and controls the
elements. He upholds all things by His
power. He has made provision for uphold
ing all things by His power. He comes as
an envoy. Consider the envoy. He is
an ambassador without restraint and He
came to save a world from sin.
"He did not come in pomp and glory.
He laid aside the glory and dismissed His
retinue and went out alone to labor. can
see him in the manger-a little babe. There
is not halo above His head, as Is painted
by the artist; He is just a babe, the son
of Mary. We follow him as child and
then as a man, and as such His divinity
was covered up. AS high priest He made
an Offering OF himself for the sacrifice.
He gives us Gods message and came car
rying the perfect sarcifce. 1t Is the old.
old story, Jesus came into this world II
save sinners i might have talked TO you
III orff
inventions. important public questions and
events of the day. but the most Important
of all these is that which / have called
your attention to-. Consider the envoy and
the high priest, how He was filled with
humanity and presented possibilities
whereby we might be saved.
"You and / must feel that In this en-
hassy there Is personality. IL is from
this embassy that all provision was made
for you. 1t is individual matter be-
tween you and Christ"
