Mrs. A. M. Holv y, of Pittston, nest
gave an address wr.icn included a re
port of the Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union's gr eat convention held al
the World's fair in Chicago last fall. Il
was a remarkably entertaining talk
mil evinced the fact that a very
talented woman dwells in the little
village on the BtUQUehnnnu. She is a
rapid Mlker, has a goad command of
cuoice language and se-ius to be
thoroughly in earnust In her advocacy
of the cans she champions She
possetses a peculiar charm when ad-
iresnug an aulience, the force ot
which grows stronger as h9 warms up
on the platform. Hor address yester
day afternoon was a masterly effort
and commanded tho undivided at ten '
ion of the entire audienos for at least
an hour and a half.
OltEAT WOICHM MEET.
Mrs. Ilolvoy sturted out by saying
that the Chicago convention was com -posed
of t.'ia brightest, brainiest and
most progressive women in the world
After paying a glowing tribute to
their g mtus, enthusiasm and earnest
less in the prosecution of good work,
She said that stauuing alone
one of th"ir uumbir conld not
do niuc'n, but when that one be
j ii.io a member of an organization
h iving for its object a great reform
bar i'lfinence was augmented by that
if 200.000 others, bm! thou she became
a mighty power in tho land.
She criticised the inactivity of the
churches in regard to tmpranco
work, saying an s-vfnl dsadnss had
fallen Upon them. Extracts from the
addroste.s ot various persons at the
Chicago omvon'.ion were given, in
cluding thoso of Archbishop Ireland,
Anthony (Jomstock and representative
from other countries, as well as from
different states of the Union, particular
reference being made to the work of
the two women sent by the organi.i
tion to inquire into ths Hbmos of India
widows by the British nriny. Airs.
Holvny's referenc.o to this particular
subject was couched in tirms exprns
sive of loathing and conveyed to many
ti;"ir first idea of the enormity of a
most bnitious critno.
As It Hi is just, as Oral answers

"We will tnko the world for Christ's

a wild beast. A cut, shaped some -tiling
in the form of a V, extended
from liio left tdionl.lsr blade to the ab

Intestines protruded. A circular cut
appeared around the right arm near

appeared bouo deep, just below the
left elb iw, and a large piece of Bcalp
was missing.
A number of witnesses, all foreign
ers, wore examined, and as usual in
such cases, more or less difficulty was
experienced in getting at the particu
lars of the crime. As near as could bo

light which ended In the murder. Oth
ers rushing in upjn the sceue, Ritiak
Will found lyiug on the bed, and as he
lived several hours, ho imparted to
them such information of the all air ns
thy possessed.
It was shown by the autopsy that
Kitsak died of hemorrhage and the
jury found that he oame to his death
from the eff-cts of wounds inflicted by
a razor held in the bands of Jonu Mnr
d,ick.
The murderer is still at large, having
tlsd immediately after the commission
of the deed, The cuief ot police at

The name i f St. Patiick has beau a house-

tnn, and have been fruitful Boiirces oi
mischief. Patrick was a siiiut of right

u inanity and enlist our respect. He was
iniiii or great nope, great ram fund great
harity. He gave his heart to Christ and
e loved him supremely and lubored for
lod and the salvation of his fullowman iu
Christlanly ami Ohristly way.
His birthplace Is unknown. Prance,
Switzerland, Holland, England, Wales

ivo sous. He was not born iu Ireland.
be latest and best authorities say he was
born in Scotland. He weut to Ireland as
captive of a barbaric chief. For six
irs ho was a shepherd for a Druid chief.
and while hero he was converted to Chris
tianity. He escaped to his home on the
banks of the Clyde. While there he re
ceived his call, not unlike that of St. Paul,
n a heavenly vision to preach the (Jospol
Ireland.
In the first it. stance be was an Irishman
by compulsion, but afterward he became
an Irishman by his own free will and by
doption. He was not thn first to lutro-
uce Christianity into Ireland. It has
been said the Oospel was preached iu Ire-
ana In the ntst century. There was a
Chri stinn church there In the time of
Tertoll ion, when Patrick claimed Uruid-
iu was the provailiug form of roligion.
THREE IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS.
These documents of St. Patrick are im
portant, his confession, bis hymn called
St. Patrick's Armor, and bis letter to
orotvdus. From these we can form an
idea of his religion and his character. His
letter to Corotvdus is a testimonial of his
patriotism and his piety. His confession
and by mil convince nu that his creed was
exceedingly simple aud thoroughly evan
gelical, liuptists, Methodists, and Episco
palians claim minus one oi tnsir told.
Having been born in Scotland he must
have boen a Presbyterian, but of course our
Roman Uatnolie mends claim bim ull for
themselves.
St. Patrick was. good enough to bolong
to nnv church. There is no record that St
Patrick was ever married. His father and
grand-father were ciergyinou, Putrick
paid no nttention to consuls or bulls or
decrees. At that timo tho Irish believed
iu home rule in both religion aud politic
There is no record of his ever receiving n
commission from Rome. Dr. Luuiiigun,the
celebrated Catholic historian, regrets his
inability to Itnd uny authority for such nn
inference. Ho was always happy, always
busy, always orthodox. His Hlustratiou
of tiio Trinity by the shamrock has been
handed down from generation to ceucra
tiou and the sous ot Erin will never forget
Iu hie hymn he desireB to be near I hrist.
I'atrirk's love for Ireland knew no limit.
From 440 A. D., when he landed in Ireland
as a missionary, to March 17, 4'Xi, when hii
spirit took its flight to glory, he nover left
his loved land, hut uais continually engaged
iu labors abundant for tho salvation of the
Irish people. Ho died at Down Patrick
in County Down.
Through him Ireland became a land of
schools and colleges, aud her sous weut
forth to enlighten tho world. Scotland
gave Patrick to Ireland mid Ireland gave
Columbine to Scotland. Tne latter estab
lished the monastery at Lough Foyle, and
established the Culdees on tho Island of
Ionia. The ruins of Ionia were exquisite
ly commented on by Dr. Johnson in 1773,
while gazing on ber ruins.
From the year M0 until U58 Ireland was
a land of plenty and happiness. In that
year Henry II and Adrian IV, au English
king and an ',nglish pope, couspired to
subject Ireland to the rule of Lnglaud.
This was done by the pope for the fee
known as reter s pence, in tbls instance
Adrian was not Infallible. Catholic say
he was acting ex cathedra, and acts done
whilo acting in thnt m. inner are not infal
lible. This act of Adrian wus severely
criticised by Donald O'Neel in 1213. To
quote Daniol O'Connell from that time
h. laud was a land oi war.rapiuo and mau-
sacre. rrom tne twelfth to the sixteenth
centuries It clan I has been treated Bhame
fully aud unjustly by the English govern
ment. IRISH (MANCIPATION,
Dauiel O'Connell was the first Komau
Catholic to take a seat in the house of
commons, he fought for Catholic umiinci
patiou nnd won the day and Irish Presby
terians assisted him. On the llithnf April,
1820, the art whs Bigned nnd religious
liberty was secure I to Catholics, Presby
terians and Methodists. Religious com
pulsion originated in hell ami Its chief
supporter is the devil, He urged Philip
and Alva 300 years ago to attempt to force
tho Lowland of Holland to Roman
Catholicism, but It failed. He urged
Honry VIII to enforce Protestunism in
Ireland and thnt failed Ignoniiiiooipdv. No
religion of Jesus Christ can be enforced by
the bloody sword.
England has been making some restitu
tion lately to Irelaud for her wrongs.
She now shows a disposition to
treat Ireland as an equal. Olndstouu has
compelled England to listeu to Ireland's
griuvauce aud tho sympathy of the whol"
world Indorsee his action. Ha bos right
and justice on his side and he stands to
day tho most conspicuous figure In th
tiiigllsh speaking world. So may he con
tinue until he sees his brightest hopes for
Ireland roalizod. I belie vo In the utnimt
religious liberty, but 1 believe that it is a
historical fact t here has been too mueh
mixing up of Irish politics with Irish re
ttgion.
An Irish loader must bo clean huudod
nnd clean hearted. They will not allow
any man, however great his position, to
enter the sacred precincts of an Irish
home, to destroy it; but as they have done
lately they will hurl him instantly from the
platform and bury him lu a dlshuuorablo
gravo.
Ireland has been sadly divided when she
ought to be united. Irelaud has been In
jufed greutly by Irish whiskey. Although
ber clergy has worked heroically another
Father Matthew or a St. Patrick Is needed
to lead them back to peace and temper

Nothing else will satisfy her. I am glad
that tho new premier Lord Koseberrv is
