THE HOLY SACRIFICE.
A Converts Graphic Description 0
tho Mass.

When 1 recall my first impressions
Of the mass-if In my bewilderment
I can be said to have received any i'm
preston whatever| assure myself
that the majority Of Protestants and
unbelievers, who look coldly or curl
ously upon the altar, are as little
mindful Of the sacred significance Of
the Sacrifice and as unworthy specta
tors as I was, writes Charles Warren
Stoddarl, a convert to the Catholic
faith. Oh, the loss Of these! DO we
not see in the gravity Of the celebrant
as he bears the chalice Of the altar,
our Lord entering the Garden Of
Gethsemane? It is the first scene in
the mystical drama and every breath
is hushed. The divine one is bur-
dened with a fore knowledge of his
doom. He kneels in the garden. We
kneel with him, and are to follow him,
step by step, to the very end.
At the Confiteor he has fallen upon
his face, bathed in the sweat Of blood;
he is betrayed with kiss, led away
captive, grievously smitten and de-
MED. The celebrant turns to us at
the Dominus vobiscum, and in his
glance we see the conversion cf Peter.
Our Lord is led before Pontius PiEte,
brought to Herod, sccrnfully sent back
again to PLATE. He is spoiled Of his
garments the unveiling of the chal-
ice-scourged and crowned with
thorns. PLATE washes his han.ls Of
the crime, and at the moment the Gel
ebrant moistens his fingers. Behold

voice from the altar pleads, Orate
fratres.
At the Preface we hear the warning
bell. The awful progress Of the trag-
edy is watched in breathless silence;
only from the organ loft comes the
wall of the singers. The bell rings;
he is condemned to death, ard made

THE ARMENIANS.
As Cruelty Treated as Jews Of
kOumanla.

Urbain Gohier prints in the Inde-
pendent a suggestion to Mr.. Hay for
another note NJ. Gohier says that nc
awaits it with confidence. With his
peculiar faculty for defending the
weak and defenseless, he pleads for
the Armenians in Turkey. He says:
'"rhe Armenians are an industrious,
intelligent, peaceful people; they have
political history and national lit
erat,re. They are Christians, like
the people Of the United States.
"Mr. Hay owes it to his conscience
to intervene in their behalf as he has
already done in behalf Of the Jews.
"The author of this article may not
be suspected Of any sentiment hos
tile to the prosecuted Jews. Every
day for three years he endangered life
and liberty and suffered irreparable
loss in order to snatch from the eX-
ecutioner the Jew Dreyfus.
"But why make distinction be-
tween the victims? Can we while
defending these refuse to aid the
others?"
NJ. Gohier says that the Armenans
are not, like the Jews of Roumania,
immigrants into the country that
forces them to emigrate again. They
live in their own land, in the cradle
of their own race, on the soil which
they have held since ever there were
men upon the earth.

The Supreme Court Of Nebraska

by an atheist named Daniel Freeman

was right, and on the ground that the

London, Sept. 21.-Stanley Spencer,

and its vicinity yesterday in a steer.
able airship Of his own construction.
He started from the Crystal Palace,
sailed over st. Paul's, went as far as
Ealing, circled above that suburb,
thence he altered his course in a
northeasterly direction and sailed
well against the wind in the direction
OF Harrow.
Spencer seemed to have complete
control of the vessel. He started
from the Crystal palace at 4:15 p. m.
and three hours later he executed an
easy descent at the little village of
Eastcote. Spencer has been expert
menting recently with his vessel at
the Crystal palace. Finding the con
ditions suitable he suddenly decid-
ed to start eff on his dangerous voy-
age and the crowd of palace specta-
tors gave him a hearty sendoff.
The airship at onces rose about 800

The airship has sthe appearance of

While abhorring the evil to the full
ness of his ability, Speaker Hender-
son is of the opinion that the appli-
cation of free trade poison is not the
proper remedy in the treatment of
the trust disease. He is not opposed
to a revision Of the tariff to a certain
extent. but he cannot bring himself
to believe that to start what he con-
siders a wedge in the direction of
forcing free trade is the sort of rem
edy called for in dealing with the
trusts. Although apparently out Of
tune with his party in his state. the
speaker does not propose to act the
sulker. He is too good a republican
for that. He will do all in his power
to insure the election of the man who
may be selected to succeed him and
predicts that whatsoever it will be he
will be successful, as he places a low
estimate upon the strength of the
democratic nominee.

By a decision of a st. Louis judge
the hatpin becomes a legal weapon
and gives the owner the right to use
it whenever she may consider herself
in danger of her life or exposed to
the incurment of bodily harm when
by its use and application she may
prevent such disastrous results. A
woman was arraigned before his hon
or, charged with having stabbed a
man with a hatpin. She admitted the
charge, but pleaded, a plea that the
testimony seems to have supported,
that she did so only in self-defense,
the man having attcked her. Upon
this showing the court ordered the
discharge Of the fair defendant and
held that her use of woman's latest
weapon had not only been justiiable,
but commendable as well.

Those Oregonians and Washing
tonians are a philosophical lot. While
the fires that destroyed immense areas
of their valuable timber are still
smouldering and in some instances
burning as f1ercely as ever, they are
already beginning to compute the size
OF the territory which has been clear
by them and made fit for the use of
the agr%iculturalist. The fires, they
say, have FASTENED the settlement of
the states by the farmer and that the
good which will ultimately follow
will mere than compensate for the
loss occasioned by the confiagration.
This may all be SO, but it is tolerably
certain that as a quick and effective
method of clearing timber lands and
preparing them for the agriculturalist
forest fires will not be of universal
adoption.

How really desperate the condition

still while this is true the Chron-
icle must have the sinews of war to
continue the policy which has been
mapped out. It costs money and the
expenditure Of time and labor to pub
lish a creditable newspaper. If the
Chronicle had an unlimited bank ac-
count at it's disposal it could afford
to go in and support the democratic |

cuniary assistance, but being shy Of
the bank account it submits in all can
dor and in all fairness that it is en-
titled to remuneration for the work
which it is expected to put forth for

ing this campaign. We hope that
those who are charged with the duty
of putting forth every effort for the
success Of the ticket will see the
force of the argument and in some
