the changes and the tendencies of
nearly all the nations which have for
long ages been in possession of CntllUi-

of your churches. in their tlouriShing
youthfulness, cheers our mind ana fills
us with glatlness True, you are shown
no special favor by the law of tho
land, but, OH the other hand. your law
givers are certainly entitled to praise
for the fact that they do nothing to re-
strain YOU in your just liberty. You
must, therefore, and with You the
Catholic host behind make strenuous
use of the Favorable time for action
which is now ut your disposal by
spreading abroad as far as possible the
light of truth against the errors that
prevail and tho sccts of absurd opin-
ions that continue to spring up.
We are not unaware, venerable BROTH
crs. of all that has been done by every
one of you for the establishment and
the success of schools and academies
for the proper education of children.
BY your zeal in this respect you have
clearly acted in conformity with the
eXhOrtations of the Apostolic See ana
the prescriptions of the council of Bal
timorc. Your magnificent work on be-
half of ecclesiastical seminarics has
assuredly been calculated to increase
the prospects of good to be done by
Nor is this all. You have wisely taken
measures to cnligltcn hissidcnts and to
draw them to the truth by appointing
learned ana worthy members of the
clergy to go about from district to dis
trict to address them in public in IA
mliar style in temples and other
buildings, and to solve the difficulties
that may be advanced. An excellent
plan, and one which we know has al

your charity been unmindful of the
sad lot of the negro and the Indian
YOU have sent them teachers, helped
them literally, and you are most zeal

If such be necessary, 70 enable you to
continue these undertakings with full
confidence that your work is worthy
of commcndation.
Finally, not to omit the expression
Of our gratitude, we would have YOU
know what satisfaction you have
caused us by the libcrality with which
your people are endcavoring to con-
tribute by their offerings to relieve the
pcnury Of the holy see. Many, indeed,
and great are the necessities for which
the vicar Of Christ, as supreme pastor
and father Of the church, is bound to
provide in order to avert injury and
to promote the faith. Hence your gen

For all these reasons we wish to de-

in the Lord upon you all and upon
the flOcks entrusted to each one of you,
be taken as token of this affection

GOSPEL MEETINGS
WILL CONTINUE
Evangelists Ostrom and Hills
Please Grace Church Con-
gregations.

The special meetings which are
being conducted in Grace Church
by Messrs Ostrom and Hills were
well attended yesterday afternoon
and last evening Notwithstanding
the stormy weather. The work of
these men has greatly pleased the
people. Mr.. Ostrom is an eloquent
and forcefulspeaker and ranks with
the greatest evangelists in the coun-
try. Mr.. Hills, the singer, has an
unusually fine baritone voice which
he uses to the best advantage.
The Rev, Alfred Smith led in
prayer last evening and then all
united in singing
Evangelist Ostrom then spok on
the efficacy of prayer. The subject
was handled in a masterful manner
by the speaker who kept his
audience deeply interested all the
time.
After that the life Of George Mil
Ter was taken up. George Miller
organized an orphanage at Bristol,
but his chief service to mankind
was to prove that prayer, are
answered.
The preacher told of how George
Miller had given away his meals
not knowing where he would get
the next. But he always had re-
source to prayer and he was al
ways provided in due time.
In brief, the life of j. Hudson.
Taylor was spoken Of in the same
connection as one sent by God, as
George Miller to prove to manki nd
the efficacy of prayer
Evangelist Ostroln asked that
between noon and one o'clock each
day that each of the congregation
offer up few minutes of private
prayer for the good work which
they proposed to carry on at the
factories during that hour.
In the evening service DR.. King
made announcement that one
hundred people would be asked to
sign their names to a pledge that
they would ask at least one person
a day to attend the services. He
also suggested the use of the tele-
phone for that purpose and asked
that those who had phones in their
houses would put the letter ''T'
after their signatures in order that
James w Lattomus and Charles
Fl Scott, who had charge of that
branch of the work, might have
complete lists,
An Invitation was extended for
all persons to attend the afte rnoon
meetings, even though they might
be allie to remain but part of the
time For his subject for this after
noon DR.. Ostrom viii continue the
topic prayer. .

President Castro is certainly q

think, was going to prove successful.
Whatever lis faults may be, his
courage seems as great as that of
the Beers who defed England, and
he has in aggression and in defence
proved himself man who does not
shrink from fight The nature of

imagine how there should have

DELHI, India Dee. 30.-Lord Cur
ron, the viceroy Of India, accompanied
by Lady Curl0n, the vicereine, former
ly Miss Mary Letter Of Chicago, have
arrived at Delhi to take part in the
durbar. They were accorded royal HON
ors and marched in procession through
the town to the vceroy's encampment,
seven miles beyond the Delhi wall.
1t was splendid pageant, unparal-
leled in magnihcence. At the head Of
the elephant procession rode Lord and
Lady Curzon on the state grand tusk-
err twelve feet high, the largest ele-
plant In India.
Their howdah was decked with gold
and hidden beneath gold worked sad
dleclOth. Surrounding them were foot
men in scarlet and gold liveries and
bearing massive silver slaves.
The Duke of Connaught, who repre-
scented King Edward, and the Duchess
Of Connaught followed. Their elephant
was equally gorgeously caparisoned.
Then, in order of precedence. came tho
nizam of IIyderab bad, the maharajah OF
Travancure and other ruling chiefs,
seventy in all, their huge elephants
forming line a quarter of Il mile In
length.
Lord Curzon was greeted at the sta
ton by all the Indian princes, who as
sembled there with large escorts Of
cavalry and infantry, while royal ele-
plants, the tinuNt animals in India,
were extended In a row outside the
station yard. The viceroy and vice.
refine greeted the princes individually,
who salaamed while the escort band
played the national air.
Lord Curzon wore his state uniform
of scarlet and gold, and the indiana
were attired In magnificent silk stits
covered with jewels and with swords
studded with gems at their sides.
The viceroy was escorted by the
princes from the station to the yard.
where he and Lady Curzon mounted
their elephant The procession then
started. At the head rode cavalry
escort, with twelve trumpeters, six

herald. The heralds' costume was of
bright scarlet worked with gold and
cost $1,000.
From the saluting battery posted at
the fort commanding the Lahore gate
guns thundered out a royal salute as
the viceroy passed, with the heralds
and trumpeteEs sounding at intervals
spirited fanfares.
The Cortege passed in front Of mag
nificent line Of $50 elephants carrying
the brilliantly dressed rctaIners Of the
ruling chiefs.
The route of the procession led
through the native section of Delhi and
then along the European quarter Ev-
erybody IN the place lined the roadway,
and the route from the station to the
ytceregal marquee was kept clear by
double military forces running the
whole way There were 10000 native
and English soldiers employed in this
way.
Today the viceroy opened the great
Indian arts exhibition, which happily
had been arranged in combination with
the durbar,

CONFERENCE ON CHARTER


Board of Trade and City Council Discuss
the Measure.
! Members of City Council, the
Board OF Trade and of the L.gis-
lature last evening discussed the
proposed City Charter. Council
has expressed itself as opposed to
many provisions of the charter and
! will insist that it be altered. One
Of the features Of the proposed
charter is that member Of Council
must take oath under the bribery
clause Of the Consultation, and TO
Ins the members object.
The salaries Of the otllcials and
their appointments were considered
At length last night.
/. Wnlan 7. Bancroft, OF the Board
OF Trade, said the proposed charter
nos provided that in case all officer
died shortly after his qualification,
! Council should choose his successor
to serve Until the next city election
instead Of for the toll term Of four
years as originally provided.
It had been provided that when
the city comptroller was perform
ing the duties of the office of mayor
ne should not have power to remove
! OF appoint officers unless the alb.
sence Of the mayor should continue
for more than thirty days. Most
of the members of Council appear
I'd to think thirty day 4 too short
period. Il was also decided to
amend the charter so the mayor OF
any Officer authorized to admins
ter oaths might swear i'll the Nom

provided that only the mayor could
