;ery happy and joyous in every way,
Notwithstanding the inclement wea-
Their. Eighty-seven attended the
services of Christmas Day in the
pouring rain. The choir was at its
best, and it took only little imagin-
alton to enable one to transport one-
self into the far back years and hear
the angel chorus GLORY to God in
! the Highest, and on earth peace
among men of good will" The Of
fering was for the benefit of Infirm
and disabled clergymen. And there
could be no more appropriate Offer
ing at such time than one to assist
those who have spent their life an
nouncing the presence of the Prince
of Peace for the salvation of the
world.
On Christmas Eve, the Tree was
more beautiful than ever; and the
School was in almost full attendance.
Above all else it is the children's sea-
son, and they were made to feel that
the birth of the babe in Bethlehem
bore very close relation to their
| life in happy Christmas homes to-
| day.
The amount given towards the
tree exceeded what was needed, and
the surplus is to be used for those
in need during the winter.
The festival of Christmas music
On the afternoon of st. Johns Day
was perfect in every respect Never
was there a more cordial response
from each one who was asked to
serve. After the idea was conceived
there remained only a few days to
arrange the service, and the program
was not completed until the hour for
beginning had arrived. Singers from
the Baptist choir made every effort
to be present, but on account of alb
sentees and terrible colds, at the last
moment it had to be given up. One
can never find words to express a
deep thought of the heart, therefore
it is impossible to express ones deep
appreciation of the kindness of the
singers. But the spirit in which
they did their part added greatly to
the joy of the evening. There was
a splendid congregation, and from
the beginning to end there was the
closest attention. 1t was magnifi-
Gently done.
The offering taken was given TO
the Benevolent Association and It
amounted to $22.17. All united in
a prayer for peace among the war
ing nations. The program was as
follows:
1. Jubilate Deo.-by the st. James
Choir.
2. o little Town of Bethlehem
by the Methodist Choir.
3, The Newborn King. A solo,
by Mrs. Wyatt
4. Outside the Gates of Paradise.

5. TIE Deum Laudamus.-by the

6. Hank, bark, my Soul. Duet
by Mrs. Wyatt and Mr. Worley.

CATHOLIC HIGH HAS
ITS 18TH BIRTHDAY
Formal Celebration of Anniver-
sary Will Be Deferred Until
Later in Term

The Roman Catholic High School cele-
brates today the 25th anniversary of its
opening. Tho anniversary is being OBJ
served by the students and the alumni,
although the formal celebration of the
occasion will be deferred until after the
terms work is we'll under way.
The character and date of the formal
anniversary celebration will be determined
at the September meeting of the board of
trustees. At that time the rector, the
ReY. Hugh. T. Henry, Lit. D., will meet
with the board to decide how the memory
Of Thomas E. Cahill, the founder. shall
be honored.
Following the students celebration, the
Alumni Association will mark the ami
versary with banquet, to which will be
invited some of the leading Catholic edu-
Gators and ecclesiastics in the country.
The committee In charge has been at
work for the past three months complet-
ing arrangements for the celebration.
The building now occupied by the school
was erected at a cost of 100000, which
was only the accumulated interest on the
original bequest. 1t is of granite, similar
to that used in City Hall, three stories
in height. with large. well-lighted class
rooms and an astronomical dome. 1t was
dedicated September 8. 1890, and the first
student was admitted three days later.
The provisions of the will of Mr.. Cahill
do not exclude the attendance Of nom
Catholics, and many boys not OF the faith
have completed courses there. Religious
training is a feature of the schools cur
riculum. Each hours class is begun with
a brief prayer, the Angelus is reclted at
neon and Mass is celebrated once a week
on an altar built by students in the as
sembly hail.

"Penrose" won't lose out on some Of tho
good dishes which Miss Murray prepares
for him.
II was never so surprised in my life a,

great admiration for our Governor. But

looked at my dog-I mean the ons

angry. Getting angry too often doesn't

II didn't want to turn him over to the

Governor Brumbaugh' dead At ths
same time, I didn't wish to torture him.
So gave him away to a neighbor. He

that sometimes the innocent have to suf-

ONCE upon a time Governor Brum-
" baugh," a 2-year-old terrier, had
French chops for his breakfast. Some
days he would get fresh country cream
and plenty of dog biscuits. Any one down
in the 7th Ward will tell you that Gov
ernor Brumbaugh" lived better than any
dog in that neighborhood. But it's diff
ferent since bill" Ware withdrew. He
is no longer the pet Of Miss Maggie Muir
ray, who lives at 25th and Pine streets.
well-informed individuals In the 7th
Ward say that but for Senators Penrose
and McNichol and other czars of the Re-
publican party in Philadelphia, Governor
Brumbaugh" would still be living on Easy
street. The blame for Governor Brum-
baugh" losing out on the "eats" is placed
on the recent political farce staged by
Penrose, McNichol, Lane and a few other
gentlemen.
To chronicle the tribulations Of Gov
ernor Brumbaugh'' carefully, 1t is neces-
sary first of all to mention something
about his history He was presented to
Miss Murray by an old Irishman who
now rests in Holy Cross Cemetery. For
more than a year he lived at her home.
When he first came around to the Muir
AdJ hOuSO no was hllOWH dS Oyp. MISS
Murray is an admirer OF the principles Of
the Republican party. When Doctor
Brumbaugh was elected Governor she
named him Governor Brumbaugh"
Miss Murray is "politicianer" She
used that word today to describe herself.
She says she controls IA votes in the 7th
Ward and that she can swing every one
of those votes to any party she wishes.
Congressman Ware was her choice for
Mayor.
The dogs fate was sealed when Con-
gresham Ware retired as a nominee.
When Governor Brumbaughs s, connection
with the Smith candidacy was exposed
Miss Murray became indignant She
didn't change the dogs name. She de-
cided to punish him more severely.
Two days after Penrose and his ad-
visers staged their political farce Gov
ernor Brumbaugh" went without dog bis
cult, pure cream and French chops. Miss
Murray's method of furnishing the dog
was simple. She simply turned him over
to neighbor. Miss Murray said today
that Governor Brumbaugh" is now
lucky II he can find a meat bone.
