Father Caraher Tells COngrega-
tiOn of Chicago Ceremony

Rev. 7. Caraher of St Francis church.
who returned Saturday from Indianap-
oils, where he went as a delegate to
the national convention Of the Ancient
Order Of Hibernians, spoke to his con-
gregation last night of the consecration
Of the new Polish bishop at Chicago
Father Caraher told Of the impressive
ness OF the ceremony and the impor-
tance of the position of bishop. He
told how the procession, which con-
sisted of 2 archbishops, about 20 bish-
ops and LOCO priests, was formed near
the cathedral and Of the march to the
sanctuary.
He said that there were more than
10000 spectators in the church at the
time the sacrament was administered
Half the spectators came to this coun-
try from Poland and have made their
residence in Chicago. At the conclu-
sion of the ceremony a choir of more
than 500 voices sang the Polish ma
tiOnal anthem. while the prelates and
congregation filed out of the edifice.
Archbishop Ireland was present at the
conservation
Father Caraher said last night that
the address delivered by the archbishop
was q great effort. which at times
brought members Of the congregation

The conservation of the new bishop
at Chicago, July %. was one of the
most impressive ceremonies / have ever
witnessed, said Father Caraher; i
would give much to be present at an
other such ceremony"

DEDICATE CHAPEL
Bishops Hamilton and Hughes
Preside at Ceremony Over
New Structure
First Sermon in New Diocese Is
Preached TO Large COngre=
CATION by Prelate

The dedication services OF the new
chapel of the Howard street Methodist
FpiscopaI church Mission and Sixth
streets, took place yesterday, under
The auspices of Bishop John w. Ham
tIton. the retiring incumbent, and his
successor, Bishop Edwin s Hughes
who Dreached the dedication sermon.
The text for the first sermon, At
fitude Toward the Church" preached
in his new diocese, was taken from
Fphesians: Christ also loved the
church. and gave himself for it." In
following out this thought Bishop
Hughes said;
The church. as a, visible expression,
Is q sure result OF the religious life. 1t
IS Inevitable that those who feel kim
dred spiritual impulses should form a
religious organization 1t is thus evi-
dent that we are all compelled TO take
some attitude toward the church, and
these attitudes may be either indiffer-
ent, critical or patronizing. The In
different attitude is not the hostile one;
II is merely negative The Indifferent
man merely lets the church alone. He
would not live where the church did
not exist, yet he is quite willing that
others shall furnish him moral pro-
lection. quickened conscience and
awakened ideals in the community,
gratis The attitude is logically i'm
possible and morally wrong. The
church stands either for the supremest
truths or for the deepest errors If
for the latter, man should oppose II;
If for the former. he should support
st. In no case can he be Indifferent
As regards the critical attitude, as the
church has the highest standards Of
holy living, il is the easiest organiza-
tion on earth to criticise. Our political
parties, our lodges, our states, our
nations do not wholly meet their fine
ideals, but as we are loyal to them
more or less, let us treat the church
as fairly.
las for the patronizing attitude no
man is great enough to treat the church
with condescension. We should ever in
sist that no man should patronize that
deathless organization which has out
lasted empires and made new civiliza-
tions. If the church is good enough
10 found a home by marriage, or to
sound an immortal hope at funerals, it
is good enough to be served. and be
served in normal times Of life To do
or feel otherwise is neither fair nor
manly"
The two bishops were assisted by the
pastor of the church. Rev. A. c. Bane,
and by several visiting clergy, Rev.
E r. Ollie, Rev. F. D. Bovard, Rev.
z. P. bennett and Rev. ". S. Matthew.
Congratulatory messages were re-
ceived from different Methodist
churches, and Bishop Hamilton an
nOunced before the close Of the even
ing services that the entire indebted
ness Of $500 had been raised during
the three services Of the day. The cere-
mony OF dedication was performed by
Bishop Hamilton and an evangelistiC
service was led by Bishop Hughes.
Bishop Hamilton viii leave for Bos-
ton today and Bishop Hughes will as
sumo active charge OF the diocese.

PRIEST GIVES LECTURE
Declares Earliest Chronicles
Prove Truth of the Bible

The Cradle of Civilization" was the
subject Of talk given by Rev. Henry
H Wyman Of the Paulist Fathers last
night at meeting of the Good Fellow
ship circle. Father Wyman's lecture
was Of an archaeological nature, as he
compared the teachings of the great
Babylonian and Syrian writers with
the present day levitical laws The
priest stated that we have much reason
for crediting the incidents which hap
pened prior to the food as chronicled
in the bible, because the traditions of
the scripture harmoniZes with teachings
and writings of Hammurabi. the first
king Of Babylonia, who ruled more than
1000 years before Christ.
Another reason given for the truth of
the history of the world as told by the
bible referred to by Father Wyman.
was that many manuscripts written
more than 1000 years before the coming
OF Christ have been unearthed and de-
ciphered and they also agree with the
bible.

BERT |MS0N co. MAKES
VERY GOOD IMPRESSION
Will Give Splendid Plays Every Night
for the Balance of the
Week.

The Bert Imson company of play
ers who opened weeks engagement
at the City Opera House last even
with the sterling play, The Black
Hand" made a decided hit with
Bemidji theater-goers, by their clever
work in their first appearance.
The play was staged very strongly,
every part being taken in an artistic
manner. The entire performance
worked very smoothly, and showed
that the members of the company
are thoroughly familiar with their
parts.
Between the acts of the play,
specialties were introduced, which
were of high order. Master Robert
St. Clair sang The Holy City" an d
afterwards responded with a song
and dance. Both numbers were
loudly applauded. The little fellow,
who is but eight years of age, pos
sesses a wonderful voice and has a

splendid control of his powers in
that line.
Victor Sutherland, an actor who
has but recently came from the
eastern. circuits, is the star of the
company, and he is certainly a fine
actor. His bearing and splendid
speaking of lines make him at once
popular.
Tonight the company will present
For Home and HONOR splendid
society drama in four acts. 1t is a
strong play and Miss Leona Gray,
leading lady of the company, will
take prominent part.
Master Robert will sing tonight
and will render song in "falsetto,"
he being the only child of his age
who is able to sing in this manner.
Tomorrow evening, the company
will present The Gambler and the
Girl" four-act drama of the early
mining days of Nevada. Thanksgiv-
ing night, the popular drama, East
Lynne'', will be on the bill.
The company is very good one
and deserves a crowded house every
evening.

The Beltrami County fair associa-
ton owns good fair grounds a mile
from the center of the city, and,
under Secretary Mackenzie's ener-
getic management, hold annual fairs
including not only exhibits of grain
and vegetables. but also of stock.
At Bagley, (the metropolis of
Clearwater County,, another county
fair was held last month, and the
farmers showed great interest in
making exhibits Of vegetables and
stock. The peculiar feature of this
fair was that the whole village be-
came the fair grounds for no special
grounds are set apart for this pur-
pose. An attempt was once made to
build race track, but owing to the
stumpage and the light soil it was
abandoned, and the abandonment of
the racing was good thing for the
prosperity of the fair. The country
is not espe cially adapted for produc-
ing race horses, hence the races
would serve no useful end, and, with
out these to distract, attention is now
concentrated on the ffteen-pound
cabbages, the fine potatoes, the
healthy, well-bred sheep and cattle.
This is a great stock region.
The native grasses, growing amongst.
the stumps, are as rich as those
about Duluth. There is enough
snow to prevent winter killing and
all kinds of.stock, especially sheep,
thrive. Dairying also is progressing
with great strides, though the intro
duction of improved breeds Of dairy
cattle is important for the greatest
degree of profits. The natural
facilities for dairying could not be
improved"

P. V. Collins, editor of the North
western Agriculture st, in the recent
issue of that publication, tells of
his trip to northern Minnesota
last fall. Mr.. Collins visited Be-
midi at the time the annual county
fair was being held, and he said Of
his visit here:
~ stopped at Bemidji to see the
Beltrami County Fair, thanks to
that enterprising hustler, Secretary
w. R. Mackenzie, and if I had
not previously seen specimens of
the kind of vegetables raised about
Bemidji, at the Minnesota State
Fair, where they took fist prize,
I would certainly have been aston
ished at the superior quality of
every kind of vegetable produced.
No finer potatoes can be raised any,
where, no better cabbages, or beets,
or rutabagas or beans.
The soil appears sandy as rule,
but it's appearance is somewhat de-
ceptive, for as soon as it is properly
MANFRED it develops richness that
is very gratifying to the farmer.
Even before it is thus fertilized it is
peculiarly adapted to certain vege-
tables.
Bemldji is only about ten years
old but it is already a brisk and
hourishing city with all the modern
improvements. It is located on a
beautiful lake, five or six miles long
and two or three miles wide, which
