IX TIIK T11KATEKS.
Very few, of any, of our American
comedians have a greater or more de
served popularity than Dan'l A. Kelly,
who will open an engagement at .the
Acadnmy of Music tonight. Beginning
at the bottom of the professional lad
der he has by a thorough conscientious
effort attained to the front rank. He
la Irresls'.ably funny, though his work
In of that pecularly refined and artiHtlc
order which appeals to the best and
most cultured people. He never de
scends, to buffoonery" or other vulgar
methods to create laughter. The charm
of Inti-lllgentv and refinement Is always
noticeable. He Is remarkably versa
tile, and as an Impersonator or comic,
eccentric and pathetic character. Is
recognized without a peer. He will bo
en at the Academy of Music Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings,
with Wednesday matinee. Prices, 10,
u 30 and SO cents.
The regulur season at the Frothing
ham beginR Wednesday night, when
"Charley's Aunt" will be produced by
the original Frohman company. The
piece Is lirlslstably funny, the plot
turning on the escapade of college
students who give a luncheon in their
rooms to a couple of young ladles at
which the aunt of one of the young
men Is expected to act as chapenone.
She fails to arrive and another student,
a smooth-faced young man, Is substi
tuted fiir her with most ludicrous re
sults. Bright, clever "14M" comes to the
Krothlnghtim Thursday night with
Itlchard Harlowe, Bessie Tionehlll and
the other stars In the cast. There will
also be the original living pictures.
' e e ' e
Notwithstanding the many high
class nilnistrel offerings which have
appeared In this city In the past live
years, Thatcher & Johnson promise to
excel In points of elegance, brightness,
worth and merit anything we have yet
een when they bring to us their new
minlstre! company to the Academy of
11 dale Thursday evening. They claim
the beauties of their street parade will
outdo all previous efforts In this di
rection. i . e
, "A Green Goods Man," at the Acad
emy, of Music Friday and Saturday
next, comes to Hcranton this season
with the highest encounlums of both
press and public. Below will be found
the opinion of the Pittsburg' press:
"A a provoker of uproarious 'fun. 'A
Green Goods Man' must be rated an
Instantaneous success." .
.The three plays selected by Frederick
Warde for production at the Frothlmi-
ham on Friday and Saturday evenings
and Saturday matinee belong to the
romantic school, "The Mountebank,"
with which the engagement opens, is
by D'Enery, and its scene is laid In
France early In the present century.
"The Lion's Mouth" Is by Henry. Ouy
Carletoa, and Is a picturesque story of
Venice at the time of the Doges. "Run-
riymede" Is a historically romantic
drama which deals with the adventures
nf Robin H-md and his brother for
esters, and their connection with the
events which led up to wresting' by the
rcngnsn people or Magna unarm rrom
- the tyrannous King John.

50WKCEJS AN EVIL
Dependence on "Self Will Undo the
Work of an Individual.
REV. ROGERS ISRAEL'S SERMON
Mum Have Mado More Thna a Fleeting
Impression on Ilia Hearers -Man lie
. whips the Spirit Which In Turn
Develops the Soul. Ho Said.
"Self-Confldpnce" was the subject of
Rev. Rogers Israel's Ulsiourmf at Ft.
Luke'schurch last night, and his hear
ers were treated to one of the brief but
energetic, solid and forceful efforts for
which St. Luke's rector Is noted.. His
last night's seiiuon was delivered with
a vigor and Intensity calculated to
make more than a lleetlng Impression,
and If the substance nd style of Mr.
Israel's remarks Is any criterion, his
auditory could not fail to cherish what
was spoken to them.
It was not Increased confidence that
he urged: on the contrary, he discour
aged it. nnd aimed to Impress upon his
congregation tht dependence upon
"self,"' no matter how great tlv ac
complishment, would surely work the
undoing of the Individual. He strove
to make emphatic the need of looking
on high for power and the benefit of
divine communion 111 all things. To
Illustrate this one point be drew a vivid
contrast between the piido and arro
gance of Nebuchadnezzar nnd tivit
ruler's later humility when be admitted
the being of the Uod of Paniel.
I'ontroN this and the I'litiiro Life.
"My subject." said Mr. Israel, "Is
one upon which this life and the life
to come depends In a great degree.
There In within us a spirit that we are
developing, and this In turn Is develop
ing the soul It, is called 'self-oonll-dence'
and is an Infirmity of pride, a
direct, contrast to the divine churne
teiistic of humility. What this pride
may cot one. In . the present day Is
aptly, shown by an Illustration of long
ago. Nebuchadnezzar built a great
city, as large as any of the larger
cities of today, but possibly more mag
nillctnt than any the world has ever
known. Its magnificent palaces, gar
dens like unto that of Kdeu. a gover: -ment
of rich and costly splendor, things
ninde of gold, silver nnd precious stones
these nnd more than the limits of
the mind can Imagine, and all sur
rounded by a towering wall, on whli'h
charloti, were driven, were acquired
through this one man's power. He ac
complished his great work without
seeking God's aid, but in the helghth
of his success he proclaimed from the
temple that he was God.
"Nebuchuilnezzer was proud of his
work, and from his standpoint he had
reason to be proud, for It as truly
wonderful But his proclamation that
he was iud was the final act of his
life of arrogance and he was made to
become 'as a beast of the Held,, and
to be bereft of his reason nfter forty
three years of a reign of splendor such
ns the world has seldom known. How
different his position and that of Him
who did great works In God's name,
and said,. 'I come, not through my
own will, but through the will of Him
that sent me; Him who created and
will create all things.' Truly it Is a
striking contrast the one built him
self a reign and a city of splendid
magnificence that cost nations and hu
man lives, while the other, acknowl
edging God, saved the whole world.
Where Great men lluve railed.
'Napoleon's great achievements.
which were being shaped to terminate
only when he had conquered the whole
world, died a prisoner on the barren
and rock studded Island of St. Helena.
We might cite other characters, com
monly termed 'great,' and Instances
without number. Illustrations might
be made In our own city or of men In
our political history who rise by their
own arrogant power, but disappear
like shooting stars drop from the
heavens.
Young men particularly should
cherish the assurance that lasting suc
cess depends upon their trust In God;
your walk will be brighter. The spirit
within you, I say, is a gift from God.
nd you alone are responsible for Its
development. It may not follow that
you will literally become, as did Neb
uchadnezzar, 'as a beast of the field,'
and at all events your reason may not
lie returned to you, but the practice of
divine communion at the start Is bound
to bring the most profound success.
'Looking to God means not only
worldly power but power over the devil
and evil Influences.
SOUTH SIDi: MISSION.
Opened by 'the I'aiilist Fathers In St.
John's Church.
With a most auspicious beginning
the mission In charge of Paullst fathers
opened at St. John's Catholic church,
South Side, yesterday morning. The
Paulist order was founded In 1859 by
Rev. Father Heeker, a convert to the
Catholic faith. The main house Is In
New York city, on Lexington avenue.
The founder associated with him In
the beginning, priests, who like himself
In the parly part of their lives, had
been non-Catholics.
Three priests are giving the mission
at St. John's, Father Burke, the su
perior. Father Cullen and Father
O'Callahan. Father Burke Is a mid
dle-aged man, but In thj prime of life.
He has a muscular, symmetrical
frame, but Ms face denotes deep study.
He is superbly eloquent. Father Cul
len and Father O'Callahan are young
men.
Father Cullen has a gifted power
of eloquence, and Is an untiring mis
sionary. Father O'Callahan Is not
much over So years. Is a graduate of
Harvard college, and possesses the dis
tinguished honor of being the first
priest to deliver an oration In the
chapel of his alma mater before the
faculty and students. His subiect was
"Rationalism in Religion." The dis
course was printed extensively
throughout the United Slates, and ap
peared In all the leading magazines
and journals.
Itcgnn with a High Mass.
The mission began with a solemn
high mass celebrated by Rev. J. A
Moffltt; Kev. Daniel A. McCarthy was
deacon, and Rev. Patrick B. Lavelle,
subdeacon. Rev. E. J. 'Melley, the pas
tor, was master of ceremonies. The
choir sang high mass for the first time
since June, and the music was grand
and Inspiring. So large was the con
gregation that every available square
foot of space was occupied. The aisles
were packed with chairs, and the ves
tibules, and even . out on the' steps,
folks were kneeling.
Father Burke preached, rather he ex
plained the object of the mission. The
first week will be for women and young
gins, me second ror.men.and bays.
The services of the mission will consist
of mass at 6 o'clock a. m followed by
religious Instruction, over with at 6
o'clock to enable all to reach home and
prepare for work; mans at 8 o'clock, fol
lowed by a sermon, ami In the evening
at 7.30 religious Instruction; the rosary.
a sermon and benediction of the most
blessed sacrament. This Is the pro
gramme each day.' - Beginning with
Wednesday confessions will be heard
dally nnd In the evening after benedict
tlon, , , , .... , ,
. Ths Evening Exercises.
'At the services last evening, although
women exclusively were present, the
church was as idensely packed as at
the 10.30 mass In the' morning. Father
O'Callahan gave -the religious In true
tlon and recited the beads. He spoke
on the Blessed Virgin Mary,' mother of
God. ana reminded them that as nn
Intercessor she could not be compared
to any other being, Father O'Callahan
will preach' the sermon tonight and his
subject will be, "Death, the End of Mor
tal Life."
Father Cullen preached the sermon
last night. . Hl text was: "Thou art
careful and thou art troubled about
many things, but one thing Is needful,"
The speaker said that some are seeking
power, some fame, others money; yet.
but one thing is necessary, the salva
tion of an Immortal soul. God said to
the rich man. "Thou fool, this night all
these thing shall be required of thee."
The wealth, the riches of this world are
left bvhind; the soul Is immortal and
cannot die. If the souls that are In hell
could only come back and work out
their salvation, what saints they would
make, but they have had their chances
and their battles. The speaker exhort
ed his hearers to make the -mission
well. Father Cullen will deliver the
sermon tomorrow night. Father Burke
Wednesday night. Father O'Callahan
Thursday night.
