pens AND PRAYER By Most Prominent Catholic Dig nitaries at the Reopening of St. Taul's Cathedral. GREAT POMP OF THE CEREMONIES. Thousands of people Witness One of the Alosl Imposing Services of Church Dedication EYEC HELD IX THE CITY OF PITTSBDEG. A Kcaktr of Interesting Sermons Delivered Iron Pulpits of Both Cities. When the new bells in the tower of St. Paul's Cathedral rang out yesterday morn ing, at 10:30 o'clock, they summoned to the iacred edifice one of the largest congrega tions that ever sat within its walls, while within the sanctuary was the highest dig nitary of he Catholic Church in America Cardinal Gibbons an Archbishop, six bishops and as many monks and priests. The ceremony was in honor of the lormal reopening of the cathedral, which has been renovated at a cost of over 30,000, and it was the most imposing celebration of its kind ever seen in Pittsburg. The blaze of lights on tne main altar, the lich vestments of the officiating clergymen blending with the cardinal red, the Episco pal purple, the black ana white of the priests and acoylites, and the somber habits of the monks made a most attractive feature. There was but little effort at decoration, the only adornment of the five altars being trailings of evergreens, while about the sanc tuary were placed a lev potted plants. Tne simplicity tended to lend an even more grand effect than had the altars and sanctu ary been profusely decorated with blooming flowers. Formation or the Procession. While the prelates and priests were robing in the Episcopal residence, the Knights of St. John, in Jul! uniform, lormed a line ex tending from the Cathedral entrance to the residence, and through this the procession passed1, and then down the main aisle to the sanctuary. First came a cross-bearer, fol lowed by a large number of altar boys, then a number of students from the llolr Ghost College, in cassock and surplice; priests in cassock and surplice; eight monks in their habits; six bishops, Archbishop Ryan and Bishop O'Hara, of Scranton, the celebrant of the mass, and his assistants. The rear was brought up by the Knights of St. John, who formed in front of the sanctuary, where they remained during the services. Cardinal Gibbons entered the Cathedral from the sacristy and took his seat under a scarlet throne to the right of the altar, while Bishop Phelan occupied the throne to the left of the altar. A temporary plat form had been erected opposite the choir gallery, ar.d this was occupied by students from the Holy Ghost College, who chanted the responses in Gregorian numbers. The gallerv over the main entrance was occu pied by the Cathedral Band, which played a inarch as the procession passed down the aisle. Three Thousand People Present Admittance to the Cjthedral was by ticket, and all the arrangements for han dling the people were under the direction of members of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. The ushers were in full dress, something never belorc seen in a Pittsburg Catholic church. It is estimated that there were fullv 3,000 people in the building, not in cluding the clergy and members of the choirs. Very ltev. Father Wall and his assistant, Itev. P. Molyneaux, had general supervision of the arrangements, and there was not a hitch at any point. Beyond the imposing ceremonies within the sanctuary the main interest centered upon the music from the different sections ol tne edifice. After the baud had ceased playing in the tarther end of the church the solemn pontifical mats was begun bv Bishop O'Hara. The Deacon wasllev. Father James J. JIcTighe, pastorof St. Malachy's Church ;subdeacon,Kev.Father "VVurtembach; high priest, Itev. Father D. Kearney, pastor or St. Patrick's Church; deacons ot honor, Rev. Father F. L. Tobin, pastor of St. JIarv's of the Mount, and Rev. Father Bush. The chanting of the re sponses by the students was very fine, the full :orce of their voices being heard in all parts of the great edifice. The regular choir had been augmented to 50 voices. It was under the leadership of Mr. Thomas F. Kirk, Miss Alice Carter presiding at the organ. Tiie mass, ar ranged tor the occasion, was Haydn's "Im perial," and the selections from it were rendered with great spirit and taste. .Par ticularly noticeable was the effect produced when, following upon the Gregorian chant, the choir sang the "Kyri" The 3Iusic One of the reaturcs. TIie"Gloria in Excelsis" was equally well rendered. The "Credo" was chanted by the students' choir. The "Veni Creator" was sung by a quartet consisting of Mis Grace Miller, soprano; Mis. William LociHer, contralto; L.L. Iticketts, bass, audA. Seidle, tenor. At the conclusion of the "Vcni Creator" Cardinal Gibbons left the sanctuary, and, escorted by two clergymen, the trail of his red cassock being borne by two little altar boys in red cassocks and "white surplices, proceeded to the iralpit A sea of laces was turned toward him, and he at once read his text. While he is not a loud speaker, his -voice is clear and his enunciation almost perfect. Unfortunately, the pulpit is so situated that only those in front of nnd im mediately about him could catch the drift of his discourse. He spoke for about three quarters of an hour and without notes. The Cardinal took for his text the first verse of chapter four of St. Paul to the EphesHns, wherein is taught: "One God. one faith and one baptism." He divided his subject into several heads, the general trend of his discourse being the unity of faith and family. He spoke of the sauctity of the family relation, and of the duty of women as the queens of the household. Their position in the world ot ;o-day was greatly different Irom what it was 300 years ago, and as the intelligence of the world had increased so had womau's duties and re sponsibilities giown. He urged that men should be good citi zens, for good citizenship conduced to national unity. The Romans boasted of their citizenship, but he considered that Americans had greater reason to be proud of their citizen-ship than the people of an cient Borne. Unitv in a nation tended to its perpetuity. Referring again to his text, le said he prayed to God that the day would roue when the scattered hosts ot Christen dom would be gathered together again under one God, one faith and one baptism. Close of the Ceremonies. At the conclusion of the sermon the mass was continued. Alter the Sanctus the band played the "Benedictus," while the choir sang most effectively the "Agnus Dei." When the mass was ended the procession re-formed and proceeded back ti" the Epis copal residence in the same order in which it entered the church. The crowd on the street was so great that it required the efforts of a large force of policemen to keep the pavement clear. After disrobing, the clergymen sat down to dinner, Bishop PhcUn presiding, with Cardinal Gibbons on his right and Arch bishop Ryan on 'his left. 'The dinner was purely informal, though the Cardinal made a Jew remarks to the clergy. Later in the afternoon the Cardinal, Arch bishop Ryan and Very Her. Father Wall took a short walk. This evening, from 7 to 9 o'clock, the Cardinal will hold a recep tion at the Episcopal residence. list of the Clergymen Present.

An Address in the Cathedral to a Largo Con gregationChristian Civilization and the Influence it Has Had Upon the World. The Cathedral was not so well filled last night as in the morning, but still Arch bishop Eyan had an audience that any one would be proud to address. Cardinal Gibbons and a number of the clergymen occupied seats in the sanctuary. The Archbishop's dis course was upon Christianity and its in fluence iipon modern civilization. He said that it was hard to define just what civiliza tion means. Burke said that a civilized man should have the spirit of a gentleman together with the spirit of religion. Chris tian civilization began with the birth ot the Savior, and it continued to grow in pro portion as it was studied and acted out. Christian civilization was affected by cer tain doctrines held by modern men. It re quires self sacrifice on the part of the in dividual. There is a fact in the history of the human race that the infidel caunot up set, and that is the fact of Christianity. In fidelity cannot understand the philosophy of Christianity. It cannot understand the fact that it has beeD the Christian religion that has made and fostered all that has been great and good in the world. He called at tention to what religion had done for the sufferers of the world and declared that it had made the Christian philanthropist. The Archbishop reviewed the condition of children, of women, of prisoners, of paupers and of slaves under the reign of paganism, and then compared them with the conditions which they have reached under the influ ence of Christianity. With the birth of Christ, children began t$ be taken care of, women grew in the respect of men, and the unfortunate of all classes were bettered in their condition. Continuing, he said that the same spirit of Christianity-goes out to the laboring poor. They need regenerative in fluences. There were two giants in the arena, the strong, proud and well fed, and the poor and the ill fed, but strong in the consciousness of their manhood; in other words, capital and labor. The church goes between them, looks each in the face, and says that one cannot live without the other. God is the God of the poor and of the rich as well. The Archbishop disclaimed any intention of belittling the work done by Protestants, for there were many outside of the pale of the church who were most self-sacrificing in their labor. Still, he claimed that the only power capable of fighting the battle for civilization was the old church. In con clusion, he said that it was necessary to keep up the doctrine of the dignity of man, because it was the foundation of Christian civilization. Take away doc trines and it leaves man without support. Take away the doctrine that Christ identi fied himself with suffering humanity nnd you take away the conclusive test that Christian civilization means self sacrifice. The whole fabric of the religion of hope would tumble to pieces if doctrine be taken away. At the conclusion ot the address there was benediction ot the blessed sacrament. SOME POPULAR SIKS. Kev. W. r. Richardson Begins a Series of Interesting Sunday Talks. The first of a series ol sermons on "Popu lar Sins," by Eev. W. F Richardson, drew an immense audience to the First Christian Church, Arch street and Mont gomery avenue, Allegheny, last evening. The subject of his discourse was "The Sin of Intemperance." He commenced by saying that while temperance meant moder ation in all good thing, it meant abstinence from evil things. He then quoted a number of statistics showing that in 1SSG the amount of alcoholic liquor manufactured was equal to tengallonsforeverypersonin thecountry. He of course admitted that much of this was exported. He then continued: In the home the saloonkeeper takes ton much ot the weekly wages. One of the great dangers of the present time is the large number of young men who drink and frequent saloons. .Most of Uicm are young men who live with their parents. Yonng men who arc without homes and entirely dependent upon themselves do not drink to such a great extent. Aside lrom amoral point ot view they abstain be cause they are more likely to calculate resnlts, and try to avoid things which will hinder their advancement. It is the liot-l.ouse plants that suffer most. They do not take time to think of the consequences, and even it they do think, they reason on the line. "Well, if I do fail I can fall back on father or mother." In this State the liquor trade brings the pub lic to regard the traffic as a necessary evil to be regulated, instead of an unnecessary evil to be abolished. Many good men claim we must have liquor sold, and say the only choice is be tween the evil of Ireoor restricted whisky. They do not realize that as long as anybody will chose between two evils the devil will find two to chose from. The only way is to chose between good and evil. Tbo only remedy to suggest is total prohibition. We can obtain that only by having a political party strong enough to force one of the old parties to re spect us. But how are we to do? The ques tion now is a method. Hitherto sentiment has been the only weapon. It is a good one, bat fn the amendment campaign it failed because it was alone. Sentiment is cood enough, but we must hrace it with practical methods, for its day of righting the battle single-handed is past, felavery was fought with sentiment for years, but It "was not until America poured out the bravest blood of her sons and her purest gold that the end was ever attained. Again, prohibition lias been detained by bitrotrv. Men have forced themselves as lead ers upon tbe parties that have been organized for temperance, and have brought with tbem ideas of Sabbath observance, the enforcement of almost dead laws, woman's suffrage, and a host of o'her issues. They loaded tbem all on tbe prohibition horse nnd forced him to tbo cround. There are good men In the country lio favor probibition, but arc too liberal to take on all these other encumbrances. Woman's suffrage has hurt prohibition to a very great extent. Each of these measures is an issue to be fought ont for itself. Intemper ance is tbe evil we must conquer first, and the other reforms will follow In tneir time. What we want is an organization with probibition as its sole issue, with all the encumbrances cut away. We mnst be liberal and lust. Then, and then only, will we be successful. THE AET OF SELF-DEFENSE As Taught by Eev. J. W. Harsh, of the Filth U. P. Church. Eev. J. W. Harsba, of the Fifth V. P. Church, on Webster avenue, preached to young men last night from the subject, "The Noble Art of Self-defense." He took the stand that a "soft answer turneth away wrath," and that is the best means of self defense. "Take for your model ,Cbr'st and His apostles," said Mr. Harslia. "Meekness is always the best trait. Yon will meet to morrow and this week -with trials and re buffs. Do not allow yourself to become angered, but meet the' temptations with meekness and kind words." TTnK ARIES OPEN ON SUNDAY. Itev.W. S. Williams Doesn't Agree With Some Other Ministers. Eev. W. S. Williams delivered a sermon at Christ Universaiist Church, Curry Uni versity, last evening on the subject: "The Sunday Question and the Library." The attendance was fair, and the interest awak ened quite marked. After showing the dis tinction between the natural divisions of time, such as tbe day, month and year, and the artificial, such as the hour, week or century, he stated that the seventh day, or Sabbath, was an institution of the Hebrews, which they had sanctified, and which was almost wholly observed hy this people. The following is a synopsis of tbe sermon: Christians observe the first day, Sundav, wbich means tbe risen Lord, the day on which Christ rose again. He defied every observance of tbe Hebrew Sabbath. Christians commem orate the life of Chrit by carrying out the highest principles of that life. Christ used the day for tbe elevation of mankind, to make the world better. He ministered to the afflicted and turned tbe day generally to grand and glorious account. The day itself is not sacred only as people sanctify it by noblo deeds and thoughts. Turning to the subject of keeping libraries open on Sunday, the speaker expressed regret that ministers would stand in their pul pits and cry out against such action. Ho said that if some ministers ot Pittsburg and Alle gheny would cry out against the places that sell liquor on Sunday or the dens of vice and shame that surround them on every hand with tbe same force that they do against the open ing of a conservatory or a library, how much good and how many blessings would result from their efforts. Ho did not be lieve that any person could visit the park conservatory and leave with evil thoughts As for the library, tho neople to be most benefited by it could not well go there on any other day than Sunday. He could not understand nhy men should attempt to keep vonng men and women from the bene ficial effects of a free library on Sunday, on tbe ground that thev wero protecting the day. It was not holy. The men who sat in their studies and prepared serrnon3or tirades with which to attack the men who donated these splendid institutions to the people were un christian. If there was enough intelligence to know what truth and right were the doors of con servatories of libraries wouldbe thrown open on Sunday, in order to attract millions ot non going church people from the evils aud tempta tions that constantly beset them, particularly In large cities. The teaching and ex amples of Christ were not followed, because the so called Christianity of the present times in its weakness and indolence was stumbling against tbe highest and best thought of the nineteenth century. The speaker closed by saying that ho could almost hear tho voice of Christ back through the centuries saying, close tho saloons and all the dens of vice and open the conserva tories ano libraries, and he regretted that all the ministers did not take ud the same plea for the elevation ot millions of human souls. 60ME OF THE SURE THINGS In Religion Talked of Yesterday by Kev. J. G. Townsend. "Things We are Sure of in Religion" was the therae taken for yesterday's ser mon by Eev. J. G. Townsend, of the Uni tarian Church. He said: In this age we see a general break up of tbe dogmatic beliefs. Genesis has been sadly bat tered by geology. Astronomy belittles the idea of tbo atonement. The new criticism destroys the theory of biblical Infallibility. The new psychology shows the shifting character of the ego. Tbe doctrine of an endless hell Is either tacitly surrendered or else covered with the rose leaves of explanation. Intelligent men are asking: Is there anvtbing left in religion that we can be sure of? Let us answer this question, closely following tbe scientific method. First All thing1!, from the stone to the star, aro in motion. Nothing stands still every where there is movement. Second This movement is toward certain definite ends; that is, there is adaptation, intelligence. Even in the case of the wheat in the farmer's field, whlcn sprang from a beautiful lilv, what seems a botanical degeneration is really a progression. AH the facts of nature are fast falling into the lines of intelligence. Third This pusb, this movement, is not only intelli gent but ethical. As we look down the long staircase of evolution, we see things constantly arrive at higher stations. Tbo mineral passes into vegetable, tbe vegetable passes into tbe animal, tbo animal into tbe human. And tbe moral life in humanity is only tbe infinite aspiration A! tbe universe taking forin. Fourth But not only is there movement, intel ligence, eoodncss, but unity. The dim f eeliug in the body of the worm, the lowest form of animal life is seen to be same complicated phenome non of consciousness in the brain of a Beethoven, when be composes his magnificent symphonies. The tear that glimmers on our cheek for a moment is held by tbe same law which holds that sun-tear which glimmers for a longer moment on tho cheek of tbe sky. "So along these steos we come inevitably to the God idea. The universe is seen to be alive and immanent with Deity. Trace your way along there steps and you come to tho idea of worship, faith, praj or and duty. Obedience to the grand idea of truth, beauty and goodness is salvation. Do not fear that to-morrow will take away religion. Its stars will forever shine iu the heaven of the soul. Progress is inevita ble. In every is there a flower the is to be. A TRAITOE TO THE HOKE, Is What Kev. E. B. Donehoo Characterizes Charles S. l'arnell. Eev. E. E. Donehoo took for his lext Psalm 15:2 yesterday morning. During the course of his address he said: Tbe principles of truth and righteousness were never held in so high esteem as at the pres ent day. For years the name ot Charles S. Parnell has been held in high esteem for his brave defense of a down-trodden people. No man in the nineteenth century has attracted to himself the sympathies of those who have had a heart for Ireland's woes as has this man. Vainly have his enemies striven to smirch bis character, defame his work, and drag him and the cause ho so valiantly defended into tho mire. Foiled in every attack, exposed before the world for their cowardly methods, they were fain to let him alone to carry to comple tion the work of ameliorating the woes of bi3 wronged people. To-day I know of no man so littlo to be envied as this same man. Kings have been dethroned by the evil schemes of their enemies and rich men have lost their wealth through tbe work of speculators, but they did not forfeit the world's esteem. This man, and therein lies bis great dishonor, can lay the responsibility of bis downfall on no man but himself. In the guise of a friend he was received into a home ouly to wreck it for all time, leaving tbe wife a social leper and the husband a disgraced and broken-hearted man. No good cause ever needs for its success a man so lost to honor as this man, and no cause can hope to prosper that will tolerate a traitor to the home circle, such as this man hat proved himself to be. CALEB WAS THE HEE0 Of Bev. Dr. Sutherland's Sermon at tho Second Presbyterian Church. At the Second Presbyterian Church last evening Eev. J. E. Sutherland, D. D., talked from tests Numbers xiii., 13, and Joshua xiv., 9. He look Caleb for his hero as a man who, though not the greatest man, was a great man, and one who had done much tor tbe Hebrews. The pastor said: History reserves for us tbe names and deeds of thousands of heroo-.uien of courage,zeal and fidelity. But all the heroes could not occupy the place of eminence. Some must be ot too lesser lights, thonnU nono the less heroic. Moses and Jushuawereainongthelllble heroes, but, though aleb occupied a place not so emi nent, he was just as necessary. The story of Caleb Is seldom talked about, but I wantto give him his proper place to-night. Dr. Sutherland then reviewed Caleb's place in Biblical history, showing his many heroic deeds.
