Love, COuRTsH|P

tanning Address-TrIbute
TO Motherhood.

The audience which greeted Father
Flemming at the hall of st. Francis
de Sales church last night was most
flattering compliment to the speaker,
since on several recent occasions he
has appeared before Keokuk aud
fences, and SO entertaining have been
his lectures that the people flock to
him on all occasions when the sound
of his voice Is to be heard. The com
modious st. Francis de Sales hall was
we'll occupied by large and intelli-
gent audience who gave evidence Of
appreciation of the words spoken in a
frank, unrestrained manner which
must have given pleasure and en-
couragement to the eloquent man who
stood before them talking on a pecu-
liar subject for priest but which was
handled in most logical and con-
vincing way.
His subject was Love, Courtship
and Marriage on which he entered
in the biblical and natural way, using
many apt illustrations, some times
amusing, at other times of the most
tender pathos.

Marder's orchestra. followed by an

posed of Joseph Moeller. John B,
