COL. WATTERSOTTS LECTURE
Heard by a Select Audience at tbc
Prothingham Theater.
TOPIC WAS ABRAHAM LINCOLN
Auditory Swayed by the Southerner's
Magnetic Power sad Oratory-Relieves
Lincoln Was Destined by
God to Save the Vnlon.
Colonel Henry Watterson last night
In tho Frothlngham theater delivered
his most famous lecture, "Abraham
Lincoln," before an audience represen
tative of the city's culture, refinement
and wealth, an audience which permits
Itself to be called publicly together only
upon such rare occasions as the visit,
for instance, of one so noted as Col
onel Watterson. The lecture was for
the benefit of the Pennsylvania Oral
school.
The gallery and main auditorium'
were comfortably tilled and each bos
and loge was occupied. In one of tne
boxes Judge Wlllurd had as his guests
Judges Keeder, Wlckham, Smith and
Orlady, of the Superior court, and A. l.
Holland. Other boxes had been sold to
William Connoll. ex-Lieutenant Gover
nor L. A. Watres, K. L.. Fuller. J. B.
IMmmtck, Colonel II. M. Boies, ex-Justice
Alfred Hand and V. H. Taylor, and
the loses to K. B. Sturgea, James Arch
bald. Major J. W. Oakford, Henry Bc
lln, Jr., ticorge B. Smith. John Simpson.
T. H. Watkins, A. D. Hlacklngton and
J. H. Steell. .
The audience was moved as one per
son from the moment the magnetic
orator opened his address until he
closed with prose-poetical and rever
ential reference to the awful hour in
which Lincoln was shot down. There
were at no times ripples of applause,
but the speaker so possessed the will
and sympathy of his auditory that the
plaudits accorded him came spon
taneously and with force. He treated
the subject In an analytical way.
Why Colonel Watterson's portrayal
of Lincoln has Invited extensive criti
cism, was revealed In his frequent
declaration that the martyr-president
was Inspired of God for his office; that
this fact Is proved by the popular view
of critics to the effect that Lincoln's
birth, training and characteristics were
entirely at variance with the great
work he performed In fact, the proof
that Lincoln was given and prepared
by God to save the nation is the only
reasonable explanation of his successful
work, because the world thought at the
time he was lllifitted for the task before
Mm, and later critics incline to this be
lief, at the same time lauding his beau
tiful character. Such was the Idea pro
claimed frequently by Colonel Watter
son In the kind of exquisite diction,
profound reverence and dramatic bear
ing that does not invite pollution by
attempted repetition.
Ills Appearance on the Platform.
Probably the majority of the audi
ence saw In Colonel Watterson, except
in an oratorical sense, a person entirely
different from the ono they had pic
tured. ' In figure tie is neither tall nor
commanding and in face' he looks the
scholar rather than the orator whose
raised hand, few sentences and tin
wasted gestures have many times de
manded and been accorded silence and
attention In conventions fraught with
turmoil and factional strife. He does
not, In repose, show himself a leader of
men, although his stern, ruddy and sol
dierly visage, topped with (a heavy
growth of Iron gray hair and with over
hanging eyebrows and silver-white
moustache and goatee would nt any
time proclaim him to be more than an
ordinary man and would Invite respect.
It Is when Colonel Watterson speaks,
when he Is on the platform, that the
secret of how he moves men Is revealed.
Then, It Is the thought and heart of the
man making themselves known with
such force and strength that a person
not affected by him would have to be
very Immobile, Indeed. Intensity and
force are most prominent in his utter
ances; of oratorlral fire he has little, at
least he didn't exhibit much of that
quality last night, but his power and
magnetism by means of strength and
profound gesture were always appar
ent. It was 8.20 when Colonel Watterson
appeared on the stage and was intro
duced by ex-Justice Alfred Hand, as
one whose fearlessness In support of
truth had made him so well-known that
an introduction to the audience seemed
superlluous. Judge Hand remarked
that the audience would undoubtedly
Introduce fltself as the lecture pro
gressed and it did.
Ho Arrived Here at 6 P. M.
Colonel Watterson reached here on
the 6 o'clock evening Lackawanna
train from Philadelphia, and registered
at the Wyoming house, where he Im
mediately ate supper and then went to
his room and rested a short while be
fore dressing for the lecture. He was
accompanied In the drive to the theater
by Judge Hand and Henry Belin, jr.
After the lecture' a few gentlentpn
were .Introduced to Colonel Watterson
in his dressing room.
After the lecture Colonel Watterson
was a guest for an hour or so at the
home of W. T. Smith on Jefferson ave
nue. Those present were: Judges of the
Superior Court Orlady.Wlckham, Keed
er and Wlllard, Col. H. M. Boles. Wil
liam Connell, J. A. Linen, H. J. Ander
son. Henry Belln, Jr.. J. B. Dlmmlck,
ex-Justice Hand, James Archbald, A.
E. Hunt, Charles R. Connell, A. D. Hol
land, Rev. Dr. James McLeod, Rev.
Rogers Israel, ex-Lieutenant Governor
Watres, John E. Barrett, Tallle Evans,
of the Plttston Gazette, and Llvy 8.
Richards and W. W. Davis, of The
Tribune.
Before leaving the city this morning
on the 1.40 train for New York Colonel
Watterson paid a visit To the Tribune
building and,after being shown through
the local, editorial and telegraph de
partments, composing room and other
departments of the paper, pronounced
the plant one of the most complete
and modern for its size that he had ever
Inspected. '
- A Tribune reporter was granted an
Interview with Colonel Watterson in
his room at the Wyoming, where he
declined to discuss for publication sev
eral Important current topics of na
tional Import- '
"I am out of politics and out of public
life, Just noJ" he said, "and any opin
ions of mine for public xlse would not,
I think, be in good taste."
Colonel Watterson explained that his
present lecturing tour Is - under the
management of a lyceum bureau and
will last until April , at Albany. Two
days later he will Join Mrs. Watterson
and his children In New York, and sail
for Europe, After a - month or- six
weeks each In London and Paris (for
the educational benefit of his children,
he explained) he will go to Genoa,
where he will occupy several months
In writing a one-volume life of Lincoln
for popular .Use,. For this work he has
already made a contract with the pub
lishers.' Colonel Watterson's family is
now in Florida. It Is his first winter
In the North during many years.
He remarked that the present fac
tional quarrels and strife of his party
In Kentucky offered him no Inclination
for continuing his editorial work on his
paper, the Louisville Courier-Journal.
RET. LAXGE HAS RESIGNED.
No Lunger Pastor of the Evaogellcsl
Chares of Peace.
Rev. August Lange has tendered his
resignation as pastor of the Evangeli
cal Church of Peace, of Prospect ave
nue, the reason advanced for his step
being: that ill health forces him to take
a rest from the arduous duties which
devolve on the shepherd of a flock that
has just undertaken tho erection of a
large new church.
Rev. Air. Lange came to this city and
assumed the pastorate of the Hickory
street German Presbyterian church af
ter the departure of Rev. C. L. Wlss
waesser. The new minister ''. was a
younsr man. Just fresh from ordination
In Bloomfield Theological seminary of
New Jersey. After a year's incum
bency in the Hickory Street church, lie
resigned, but the congregation per
suaded him to reconsider his action,
which he did. and he remained about six
months longer, when he resigned again
and absolutely refused to recant his
views on the matter. The troubles of
the Hickory Htreet church have, ap
peared so often In print that to repeut
them is uncalled for.
Prom the church went with him over
100 adult members. It Is claimed, and
they organized a congregation of their
own. railed it the Church of Peace, and
prevailed on Mr. Lange to assume the
pastorate. The first inkling that all
was not harmonious with the Church
of Peace was a month ago, when Prof.
John Lentes resigned from the position
of organist and superintendent of the
Sunday school.
The congregation owns a lot on Pros
pect avenue and a large church Is now
in urocess of construction. Rev. Mr.
Lange went to Philadelphia in the early'
purt of the week. His wife and child
had been there visiting relatives
for ten days and she sent a telegram
to him Tuesday that the child was ser
iously 111. He went to join them with
out delay after receiving the message.
In a letter sent to a member of his
congregation he announces his resigna
tion as pastor and states that it is not
his Intention to return, but that his
brother-in-law will arrive in a few days
and nettle all accounts against him. Rev.
Edward Lang, pastor of St. Paul's
Evangelical Kutheian church. Prospect
avenue and Heech street, will likely be
the one to administer to the spiritual
wants of the Church of Peace, until a
pastor Is chosen. The members feel
very sore at the summary manner in
which their pastor has departed. It
was rumored that domestic troubles
have all to do with Mr. Lange's depar
ture. C031IX6 ATTRACTIONS.
The largest as well as the most per
fectly equipped operatic organization
In the United States, with the single
exception of Abbey, Scoeffel and Grau's
Grand Italian Opera company,, is the
magnificent ensemble of artists in sup
port of Lillian Russell. Miss Russell's
company numbers nearly one hundred
people and for "The Grand Duchess,"
which' will be sung during her tour
through Pennsylvania, Miss Russell
carries two carloads of scenery and cos
tumes. The magnificent production
given "The Grand Duchess' at Abbey's
theater. New York, is wofld famous,
and It is precisely that production which
will be seen from the stage of the Acad
emy Wednesday, January 29, for one
performance only. The advance sale of
seats and boxes for Miss Russell's ap
pearance, will begin on Wednesday
morning.
II II II
This evening. one of the greatest of
Frohman's successes one of the mofit
notable of the pretentious productions
of the season In New YOrk last year
will be seen at the Frothlngham to
night. "The Fatal Card" hod Its first
production In this country at Palmer's
theater last season. So great was the
success of the play that at the expira
tion of the time allotted it at Palmer's
it was by special arrangement trans
ferred to the big stage of the Academy
of Music, where It continued to enor
mous business through the wane of
the season and far Into the heat of the
summer months. It will be given here
In Its entirety. Scenic embellishments
and mechanical effects, marvelous In
their accomplishments, are as much a
feature as the strength of the company
of players.
I' II II
One of the admirable features of this
season's great success, "A Social High
wayman," to be presented at the Froth
lngham Thursday, January 2.1, is the
fact that Mr. Kichard Mansfield has
surrounded hln stars, E. M. and Joseph
Holland, with a company of artists long
and favorably known to play-goers of
fill large cltien, and who have always
been prominent participants in the
great successes, and under the best
managements.
!! H II
Sattlar'fl Gaiety Burlesque company
will be the attraction on Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday next at Pavls'
theater. It in represented to Manager
Davis as a clean, excellent show, de
void of all objectionable! features, and
with an aggregation of merit rarelv
found in an organization of the kind.
Prof. Austin presents a series of ar
tistic living pictures in conjunction
with the other features.
FUNDS FOR THE FRIENDLESS.
Inquiries have been made as to
whether The Tribune fund is to be de
voted to the new building near the Oral
school or to the more Immediate current
and Incidental expenses of the Home
for the Friendless. In reply we will say
that where no condition Is attached by
the donor, we shall leave the disposi
tion of the fund to the managers of the
Home, it to be applied by them as they
shall deem proper. Contributions to
the new building fund will, however, be
acknowledged by us in this place, when
ever donors shall express such, a wish;
and money thus received will be re
ceipted for and duly turned over to the
Home management, from whom The
Tribune will in turn receive vouchers.

FIRE CHIEF A. Hj RUNGE.
His Restored Health Was Due to Paine's
Celery Compound.
'
MM.
v
The position of chief of fire depart
ment In a big city like Minneapolis,
with its acres of valuable building
property, crossed by numerous railroad
lines and dotted with factories where
the fires are never "banked," Is one of
the utmost responsibility, and can be
entrusted only to a man of unques
tioned character and ability.
August H. Runge, who has filled this
responsible position for several years
with so much credit to himself and to
the city, was born In New York In 1S53,
where he received a common school
education.
What such a man as this has to say
enn scarcely fall to carry weight with
It:
"With the hope that what I say may
In some way be brought to the atten
tion of others who, like myself, have
suffered without any apparent cause,
I feel constrained to recite a brief tale
regarding an experience which I trust
mny never be repeated in my case.
"A few months ago, owing doubtless
to the exacting nature of my duties as
head of the lire department. I began
to feel a wort of languor and listless
ness, to disguise which I was com
pelled to bring Into play all the
strength of will I could command. The
feeling grew upon me, however, and In
a short time it took such possession of
me thnt It affected my appetite and
caused insomnia. ' I approached my
meals with a feeling amounting almost
to nausea, and my bed with horror at
the restless- night which I was almost
certain was before me. Matters be
came so serious with me that I could
no longer keep silent about myself, and
speaking of It to one of my friends one
day, be. suggested that I try Palne's
coltry compound. I purchased a bottle
and before I had taken a dozen doses I
knew that the suggestion was a good
one. I felt an Improvement. I con
tinued to use, and felt restored. My
appetite Is good, and I sleep well, and
insteud of an irksome grind my busi
ness is again a pleasure to me. I at
tribute this happy state of affairs to
Palne's-celery compound."
As in the case of Fire Chief Runge,
the beginning of poor health is very apt
to rob one of tho will power to start
Immediately about getting out of dan
ger. It Is this Inertia of poor health
that makes an ordinary "run down"
bodily condition so dangerous, and so
likely to go pn to something worse. Ev
ery day It Is clearly shown that It won't
do to live tlred-out, and on the verge of
breaking down. The languor and the
lack of strength are sure to Increase.
Now Is the time to throw off disease.
As the new year begins there are few
est hindrances to getting back strength'
and sturdy- health. The bracing
weather arouses a longing for health.
Palne's celery compound, taken now,
does Its best service toward driving out
disease and establishing firm health.
