BISHOP
PREACHED

A special advent service was held yes
terday in Grace church under the aus
pices OF the Brotherhood OF St Andrew
Many Of the members OF the brotherhood
were present The speaker was Bishop
Thomas A. Jaggar, rector OF ST. Paul's
church In Boston. He said in part:
The aim Of this brotherhood is to
bring men by every means to Jesus. but
20 do that you must have first found Him
yourself. Therefore. today i bring you
the larger definition OF the words OF An
drew TO his brother Simon: We have
found the Messiah. ] want 10 impress
upon you this afternoon st. PauIs exam
pie: that is. that YOU will have just as
much influence among your neighbors as
you In proportion admit Christ into your
soul
Christ becames valuable TO US person
ally Just I'm the degree that we permit
Him 20 be In us. TO some Of Ia tho
story OF our Lords life appears largely
legendary, with poetic tinge, and many
OF the literary lights condescend to ac-
cept the historic Christ. but find fault
even with Him.
ITO many people Christ Is simply a
the Sermon on the Mount OF the Golden
Rule. But merely 10 respect Gods word
outwardly without bearing inside the
principles of the Sermon on the Mount
with trial.
But TO many OF the people Christ Is
more than the moral teacher. He is an
example OF goodness and they respect
and love Him for this goodness. Their
doing good, however. is weakened by the
fact that they have not the true love
and faith in their hearts We are still
outside OF the sanctuary IL our faith has
not realized for us that inspiring concep-
ton that ITO live. is Christ We, too. may
fnd all this I'm Christ. my brothers, and
20 do our best In our field OF activity we
must find II.
My brethren. the Bible is far more
than literature. The Bible entire draws
toward one event. and Jesus Christ Is
that event. Men are what their ideals
are. IL their ideals possess them. Cl.-st
is the greatest ideal and Him should we
hold high above all others. The duty
or the church is 10 perpetuate the lncar-
nation or God, for only as the church
brings Christ close TO men only 40 far
can the church hope TO leaven the in
difference OF the classes"

a prize fight. He said:
The promoters Of the affair, | under
stand, are Catholics. and as such. / have
the belief that IL becomes my duty to
protest against It; and as citizen 1 be-
lieve that IL is "A violation OF the laws
and should be stopped by the town au-
thorities
Although IL was the season OF Advent
these men paid no attention 10 what they
should be interested i'm, and allowed this
fight TO he pulled off by tenth-rate pu-
gilists' with as little hesitation ms at any
other season OF the year"
Father Cassidy attended a church ded-
ication I'm Providence one week ago yes
terday. lie said yesterday afternoon had
he known this affair was TO have been
pulled Off. he should have Stayed at home
and denounced IL I'm advance With ref
crence TO the enforcement OF the liquor
law he said ne had repeatedly appealed
TO the town council during the IS years
he had been a resident OF the town. as the
best ne could get from any council was
promises which were never fulfilled.
The sermon, which was largely along
the same lines as one preached a few
weeks ago by Rev Father McGrath. GU
rate Of the some parish, caused a sensa-
tion throughout the town.

CONDITION
OF PANAMA

Washington. Dec. 1s-The report OF Col.
w. c. Gorgas. chief sanitary officer OF
the Panama canal zone for October
shows three cases OF yellow fever during
the month which he says indicates tte
early disappearance OF the disease. Only
one case was an employe OF the commits
sion.
Col. Gorgas states that Panama has Of
ten been free from yellow fever. but tho
only disappearance was when they had
no non-immunes to contract it, During
October he says they had all the natu-
raj conditions favorable for yellow fever
a larger number IL non-immunes probably
than ever before being on the isthmus
with a wet and hot month.
The American force reached It's maxi
mum about % 000 OF which number about
1900 were non-immunes among whom only
one case OF yellow fever and not a single
death. Tho report says that with q. 600
mon there was sick rate OF q per thou
sand
Col. Gorgas rs inclined TO think that
the sanitary question OF Panama has been
settled "a has been shown by the fact
that n force OF laborers as large as there
ever will be can work on the isthmus
without suffering from yellow fever. and
that the general health OF and same force
can be kept as good If they were digging
canal In a healthy part OF the United
states proper.

One of the most distinguished Irish
priests of his day and generation has
passed away in the death, on May Is,
of the great Irish hagiologist, John
Canon O'Hanlon, Parish Priest of San
dymount, County Dublin, says the
Irish-American. Thousands of clerics
and laymen all over the world will
learn with almost personal sorrow
of the demise of the gentle and gifted
pastor OF the Star of the Sea Church,
whose literary labors for fifty-six
years have compelled the highest en-
comiums even from the Bollandists.
One must be amazed at the indomit.
able perseverance of single man
even attempting sketchy account of
the $500 Irish Saints whose lives have
been written by Canon O'Hanlon with
a wealth of learning and conscientious
research that few could equal. Born
over eighty years ago, Canon O'Han
Ion was veritable storehouse OF
archaeological lore. From 1S45 to
1852 Canon O'Hanlon labored on the
American Mission at st. Louis, under
Archbishop Kenrick, but his thoughts
