Sermoa at St. John's Charca by Key. J.
Moffitt oa the Savcatk Command-meat-8ther
Hews Motes
Rev. J. A. Moffitt at the 10.30 mass
yesterday in St John's church preached
on the Seventh commandment. There
are many ways, he said, to transgress
this law of God other than by being
guilty of the actual sin of theft. Care
lessness and extravagance In the man
agement of the household affairs by the
husband or the wife are Infractions;
a venturesomeness on the part of a
man going Into business without cal
culating his chances of success Is a
sin, when that one is able to stock his
store on credits; these are gross viola
tions of the law of God. A man or wo
man who retains what belongs to an
other must restore the-value, of the
debt. It makes no difference' how long
the balance has stood.
Some who has acquired wealth un
justly, when they reach the allotted
time are loath to make restitution for
the reason that their families .would be
beggared and.lt -would, be an awful
plunge for them to be transferred from
a position of affluence to one of beg
gary If the dying father would render
to .each man his due and restore his
illgotten gains. The reverend speaker
gave vivid figurative examples of how
children forget the' dead - parent who
went to hell for all eternity merely that
they might be happy In this world.

TO BE A BATTLE ROYAL
Sorae-Reaaona Why Next Wednesday's
Foot Ball Game Will Be a Great Ono
Scranton lias Tied Elmira, Elm Ira Has
Tied Orange and Orange la aa Good as
the Collages.
When the foot ball eleven of the El
mira Athletic association lines up
against the Scranton Bicycle team next
Wednesday at the Base Ball park,
Scrantonlans will have an opportunity
of witnessing one of the greatest foot
ball games that has ever been played
in this city, for Elmira has earned for
herself a name among the leading foot
ball teams In the country by her record
this year.
Without a defeat so far, Elmira has
met and defeated some of the strong
est New York state college teams, be
sides playing a tie game with Orange,
the strongest of all athletic teams, on
Saturday, Nov. 9. This game with
Orange Is the one which has placed El
mira In the same class with Yale, Har
vard and Princeton, as the Orange
team Is considered by foot ball authori
ties to be even stronger than her college
rivals. For this reason alone Elmira
ought to be greeted by a large crowd
when she comes out on the field next
Wednesday.
There is another reason which should
even be more important to Scranton
lans, for the Scranton Bicycle team, on
Oct. 5, played with Elmira a game In
which neither eleven succeeded in scor
ing. Taking into consideration these
two facts, there will be played here
next Wednesday the best game ever
seen In this city.
Elmira would not take kindly to a de
feat, white the Scranton eleven realties
that to defeat Elmira means a place
among the leaders, and to this end are
bending every effort. Without excep
tion this will be the best game of the
season and the players are doing every
thing In their power to put the regular
team In against Elmira, as the playing
will be fast and furious from the start,,
and no doubt "subs" will be In demand
before the game will he finished.
The Bicycle team will be In about the
same condition aa when they played
Shamokln, and If possible will line up
the same aa. It did' then. It this can be
accomplished there Is every reason to
believe that the chances will bo very
much In favor of Scranton, as the men
think that such a team is the strongest
that ever represented Scranton on the
gridiron.
IT WILL END TOMORROW.

contributing to the pleasurable occa
sion were: Rev. D. J. MacGoldrlck,

The programme consisted of ten num
bers, and every one of them was a treat
in Itself. Every seat In the hall was
taken, and the audience was very ap
preciative. The Introductory Number.
The Gloria from von La Hache was
the introductory number; the choir
sang this with great tenderness and
finely modulated effect and was accord
ed a fitting ovation. Without any In
troduction Father MacGoldrlck ap
peared on the stage to lecture on Mo
iart, the immortal composer. The
speaker commended the work of Pro
fessor Schilling In the field of music In
this city.
Mozart's requiem mass was reviewed
In a manner which places Father Mac
Goldrlck prominently as a musical
critic. Nothing like Mozart's requiem,
said he was ever before or since written.
It Is sublime, terrible and majestic. The
composer died in liVl, at the ago of
35 years. Up to that time he had
written much vocal and Instrumental
music, and many of the masses now
sung In churches were his works. There
Is a charm about his music, half oper
atic and half sacred, that is sublime.
Fifteen masses were written by him.
When he was engaged on his Inst
opera, a stranger came to him one day
and gave him full permission to write
a requiem mass, to take aa much time
at it as he pleased, but to do It with
the exercise of all his genius. Mozart
had lived a life which was devoid of
religion and he began on the requiem
feeling that he was writing his own
funeral dirge, for after he had finished
the mass he died, and his place of
repose is not Known today. Some say
that he did not complete the mass, but
submitted, the conclusion ' of it to a
friend. . ...
. Requirements of a Requiem.
. Father MacGoldrlck would look at It
as the work of Mozart. In order to
understand what a requiem Is one must
know that the church regards It not
as the mere commendation of the vir
tues of the dead person for whose soul
the mass Is offered. It is the sunnlirn .
tlon asking God to have mercy on the
soul departed. The composer's -.mortality
was fast approaching and the
aoctors iook the work away from him.
' The speaker went on to .give a description-
of the requiem. The "Dies
Irae" is the peculiar characteristic of
it, necause u is a description of the
Incidents of the seneral lurtirment
What Mozart has left behind him shows
that he felt what he wrote. Standing
mii me onna or eternity mis man, hav
ing abandoned during the vigorous
years of his life all that savored of
reugion, ne wrote a work of muslo that
leaves behind It pulsations of dread
after the beauty of It has been per
ceived. The "Dies Irae" ot the requiem
Is so majestically terrible and sub
limely suggestive that the nrlPKt i.
often caused to stand thrilled In the
celebration of the sacrifice while the
choir is singing this part. The earth
linen seems to snaKe at the thoughts:
Day of wrath, that dreadful flay.
When sun and earth shall pass away.
In only one or two places he seems
to nave rorgotten his terrible dread,
and to have written In an even strain.
The Sanctus of the requiem Is consid
ered the most sublime of church nmair.
It has never been explained whv: the
rythmic measure Is the cause given, for
the music Is fraught with such an am
plitude of sublimity. The Bcnedlctus is
a confluence of rhyme; but his dying
moments were fast approaching when
he wrote the "Agnus Del" of the
requiem.
Sighing of the Night Wind.
The movement In different keys
makes one think he hears the night
wind sighing over his own newly made
grave. The reverend speaker Invoked
eternal rest for the composer and as
sured his hearers that what he had
said of the requiem would be verified
when they, at some future concert, un-
'fler the -same auspices, shall hear it
sung. ... ... .
Miss Edith Du Bols, of this city, sang
Coccia's "Ave Maria." a soprano solo,
arranged so as to require voice cul
ture of high order to render It. MIhs
Du Bole fully sustained the require
ments. She sings with sweetness and
remarkable .. flexibility, running from
the high notes with gradual cadences to
the diminuendo scale in a well modulat
ed breath.
"Waldmorgen," a woodland chorus,
was given by the Scranton Lleder
krana. The volume of music was grand
and inspiring. The voices responded
like magic to the wand of Director F.
F. Koprf. Long, continued1 applause
greeted the singers and it did not cease
until they had returned from the stage
to their seats In the auditorium.
.Mrs. Schilling, Miss Minnie Doyle and
Howell Davis sang a trio from Nlcalao.
Its title Is, "Tl Prego o Patre," and it
.Is. a rich, composition and fraught with
melody. Their voices blended admir
ably. The only recall of the evening
was given to Professor Kopff when he
favored the assemblage with three vio
lin solos.
Watkina Hang Rook of Agos.
John T. Watkina, 'the always popular
artist, was warmly greeted and he sang
"Rock of Ages" In magnificent style.
The choir sang von La Hache's Sanctus
and Howell Davla followed with "The
Holy City," that exquisite hymn. The
rich, clear tenor atralns of the singer
received their Just meed of applause.
The last number was the "Laudamus
Te," by the choir. Mrs. Schilling sang
the solo parts.
Right Reverend Bishop O'Hara and
several priests of the city and neigh
boring parishes were present ,

Extreme Prostration
From Fevers
of every description, especially
typhoid, is the doctor's fear and
the patient's danger; medicine
is of but little avail, sufficient
nourishment to create new
strength to carry the patient
over the crisis is what is nec
essary, a persuading of the great
machinery of the body to go on
with its work is the end
sought after; hence physicians
recommend
Bovinine
that greatest of concentrated
food preparations, that, creator of
strength, maker of flesh tissue,
and blood enricher, which, putting
the vital organs in their normal
condition, enables them to dis
pel disease. Dr. G. Curson
Young of Phillipsburgh, N. J.,
says, " I have used Bovinine with
great satisfaction. One case, an
old lady of seventy years, con
valescing from typhoid fever, but
very slowly, gastric irritation
complicated with extreme pros
tration gave but & faint hope of
recovery. I gave her Bovinine,
a complete restoration to
health followed."
