SPOKE ON "PURGAToRY."
Father Brannan's Lecture at the
 Court House.

Father E<annan's audiences grow as lis course of lectures at the county court house proceeds. The room was filled last evening to the utmost, and the address was enc that caught the closest attention of all present.
 Father Grammar was wholly serious last night, as his sunject-' 'Purgatory quired. The stories and incidents savor- ing somewhat of the humorous with which he usually tempers his discourses vas for the most part wanting, and he spoke with the carnestness and vehem- ence of a man under the most powerful conviction of the truth of his utterances.
 His address was defense of the Cath olic belief in middle place between Heaven and hell, whose existence the Protestant branch of the church denies.
 From St. Augustine, St. Paul, Matthew, Peter and other of the Biblical writers he quoted to show that such place exists and that in accordance with di- vine justice it must exist. He dwelt at some length on the distinctions in sin. upon which the Catholic church lays great stress, and urged that this made neces- sary a place and a provision for the purging of sins not sufficient to merit eternal punishment
 He challenged anyone in the audience to point to anything in the Scriptures that initiated against the Catholic theory of .Purgatory.
 The subject tonight will be 'Indul- RenceS"

 The present elections came fin the midst of a parliamentary crisis, growing out of the ministers proposals with regard to the means for raising money to defray the cost of the great naval program to which the country is pledged, partly as a result of an alliance with Great Britain. Prac- tically all the political parties are ar- rayed against the Cabinet because there is a strong objection to the governments plan to raise money by increasing the land tax.
