' W'ATTERSON'S LECTURE.
Abraham Lincoln Will Bo the Subject of
'. Ills Discourse at tha Krot hint-ham.
On the evening of January 17, Colonel
Henry Watterson, the brilliant editor
of the Louisville Courier-Journal, will
deliver his celebrated lecture on "Abra
ham Lincoln" In the Frothlngham thea
ter for the benefit of the Pennsylvania
Oral achool. The Chlcajro Kvenlns
Journal In speaking of this lecture says:
" ."Henry Watterson's brilliant,- beua
"tlful and affecting oration upon Abra
ham Lincoln Is a contribution to litera
ture no less than to oratory. No picture
of the great martyr has been so vividly
drawn, no picture has been so pictur
esquely colored as this one, drawn and
colored by a Southerner who once was
a rebel in heart and In act. It Is an Im
perishable wreath on Lincoln's imper
ishable tomb In the hearts of his coun
trymen. It also throws a light upon the
present feeling of the South, of which
Mr. Watterson Is the foremost repre
sentative." 'SQUIRE GILDAY'S FIND.

The birth of the Messiah was beauti
fully described by Mr. Israel as follows:
Men were expecting a savior. The eyes
of the mystic, dreamy East. Introspective
In Mil Its tendencies, looked for this
Savior to be evolved from meditation,
Jerusalem, the symhol of religious action,
gaxed upon the growing light of the shiki
na veir after year, and in keeping of the
law, demanded of God a realisation of His
promises.
Hopes Were High and Longings Profound.
This Savior no one seemed to compre
hend no one neenied prepared to describe
his person or his work, authoritatively.
Everyone had a vision, n theory, a want
which he hoped would he supplied. None
dreamed of the Son of God ill human
form, but hopes were high and longings
profound.
The fulness of time, as Ood only could
know, was come. The holy night Is at
hand; all creation, animate and Inani
mate, breathes expectancy. The hush of
myriad life Intensities as lime and etern
ity are merged into one. Matter and spirit
appear entranced In sudden sleep in which
visions of radiant brightness, of hope, of
life, sweep in glorious order, marshaled
In dreamland and led forth by the prophe
cies and longings of the ages.
Heaven's nates are ouened and minister
ing spirits, messengers and servants of
the Most High, singers and musicians of
His court, hurry forth. Legions of spiri
tual creations crowd the battlements and
towers of heaven, and throng' Its golden
streets. 1'pon wings of swiftness akin to
rays of lht, special ministers go forth
and hover closer and get Closer to the
earth.
All eyes are ttxed upon the little town of
Bethlehem, nestling nmlil Its protecting
hills. A woman's weary eyes await the
triumph of her agony. A moment of the
most intense quiet on earth and in heaven,
amid the starry worlds nnd then there
rang from a myriad sweetest voices In
heaven, on earth, and through all the
glistening universe, a song of holiest
melody which flooded earth and air and
paradise with the glorious words, "Peace,
peace, pence on earth to men of good will."
All heaven Is aws ke. Suddenly from out
the starry depths of infinite space a song
of everlasting Joy breaks upon the sleep
ing earth. But few of human birth are
privileged by spiritual life to await the
heavenly heralds' song and hear the words
of holy promise.
Heaven at Last Had Opened.
A mother clasping her heaven-born In
fant to her throbbing heart, while memory
ami thought are busy with angelic visita
tion, wonderful divine communication and
gifts of prophecy and light; a father yet
strugellng between Joy and sorrow, faith
and doubt, scarce realizing the majesty
and momentous character of the events
transacted before his astonished gaxe: a
few humble men watching their flocks
and ministering to new born lambs, fit em
blems of the gentleness and love which
made of this the night of all nights to the
earth born creatures of time. After many
weary cycles heaven had opened and In
prophetic fulfillment the long expected
Messiah had come to earth.
Today, the advent Is long passed and the
second advent apparently afar off. Faith
has grown cold. Enthusiasm burns low.
Love Is turned Into other channels, and
many, while knowinir the Lord In theory,
are not impressed with the reality of His
presence by personal, heartfelt, unques
tionable experience. And so we keep the
feast as a continuat reminder of our dear
Lord's presence on earth in His body, the
church, and In every earnest, human
Christian heart. For thomrh faith, enthu
siasm, love he not what they were, there
l the general acknowledgement, In every
thoughtful breast, of the power and pur
pose of the Incarnate God. And while in
the present this. lll the lnf:rnt Jesus, may
be wenk and heirless. It needs but the
nourishment of the word nnd the spirit
to srrow into abounding power for good.
This seme Jesus, wnose turtn we cele
brate tnrtav, might have remained In the
giorv which He had wMh the Father from
the beginning. If so. our reloiclngs today
would be drowned bv sorrows and hone
less cries, tie.nalr would n"" nanir like
a pnll unon the human race. With no h"e
of a renewed life, no wish for Immortality,
no rielr for nuritv end no model of hu
man perfection, eirth would be pande
monium, and horrid vlsnged vice would
sway the hearts snd minds and bodies of
races to deepest degradation.
rtccnmc the Son of Man.
Thus the Son of God became the Son of
Men the word was made flesh "and Ood

THE CATHOLIC CHURCHES.
Day Was Observed in a Particularly Im
pressive Manner.
On a scale of magnificent, grand, and
solemn fplendor the feast of the birth
of the Savior of the world was cele
brated at St. Peter's cathedral. Ten
masses were read; the first was at five
o'clock, a solemn high mass, then there
was a mass every half hour until nine
o'clock, at which time Rt. Rev. Bishop
O'Hara said the chlldrens' mass. At
10.30 there was a pontifical high mass,
which was also celebrated by the vener
able bishop.
Never before probably was the ca
thedral decorated In so elaborate, pro
fuse and truly artistic a manner. It
was the handiwork of the slBters of St.
Cecilia's convent.
An inspiring scene was beheld at five
o'clock In the morning-, when one en
tered the church from the leaden dark
ness of the outside world. The eve was
first attracted to the Blessed Virgin's
altar. That oart of the sanctuary was
occupied with a representation of the
stable at Bethlehem. There were Jo.
senh. Mary and the Infant In the man.
Iter, cuddled In the straw. Around the
manger the shepherds and their flocks
of sheen were ranged; and above were
the figures of bright angels hovering
over the scene. The Inside of the crib
was lighted with the subdued rays from
lamps hidden from vlev-.
Arrangement of Figures.
The arrangement of the group was
such as to give the impression from the
life-size appearance of the statues, that
living persons were there In the stable.
The floor was on a level with the top of
the sanctuary rail and extended back
to the altar of the Virgin and from the
side of the church to the bishop's throne.
It was enclosed with figured canvas of
dark shade. The dimensions of the
stable were about twenty feet wide,
eight feet high and thirty feet long.
On the opposite side of the church the
statue of the Sacred Heart was en
shrouded in fragrant evergreens, and
was overspread with a canopy of red
plush. The faintly gleaming lights ad
ded an Indescribable charm. The statue
was wreathed In smtlax, holly and
palms and was surrounded by a bower
"'Themaln altar was bedecked with the
same floral garniture, except that what
was used was cultivated plant, but the
remainder throughout the church was
wild growing. There was a grand in
terlacing of crescents, stars, wreaths,
and crosses around the tabernacle.
From the long rod of the sanctuary
lamp was suspended six festoons of
palm and attached to the walls on
either side. The Corinthian columns,
seven on each side, were entwined with
smilux and holly end festoons spread in
every direction. The fame of the decor
ations spread so thnt the church con
tained a vast pilgrimage the entire
afternoon of people anxious to see the
grandeur. Among the number were
very muny non-Catholics.

like wayfarers taking refuge from storm.
