Tha lecture at St. Thomas' College hall lust night by Hon. M. T.

M. T. COUCORAN. no matter how their teliglous sympath ies might tend, could And ample In struction and enUrtulnnrent to tepay them for attending, lrr Senator Corcor an's conception of the subjict and the exhaustive und able manner in which he discussed it. His argument was to demonstrate that the mother church lev'lved the arts trom the tomb Into which the decadence of Greece and Home had plunged them, protected and nurtured them during the thousand years of the Christian era when In succession the Pagan persecu tor, the Vandal and other baibarlans of the North, the Iconoclasts, the Sar acen, and the tonllicts of people and power threatened the obliteration of Chrisllanltj, civilization and art, and successfully bridged for art particular ly its dark nge between Its resurrec tion and its renaissance. He pointed out how with tire rise of the church from the catacrmbs art arose, and held that with the decline of tho power of the church It declined, glvlncr as example that since the entrance of Reformation into England, despite unusually favorable conditions no great attist lias been pioduced. THE REFUGE OF ART. After giving a brief sketch of the troublesome times In Europe during the thousand jears following the bltth of Christ he went orr to show that att during this period found refuge behind clolslpied walls and emerged when con ditions were agam favorable for its receptiorr with every evrdence of most caieful nurturing and the better for itu letreat. And alter emerging, ire said, art received its Inspiration from the cloister and its encouragement from the patronage of the church. Not only v ere these things true of paintings, architecture and music, he said, but applied in a great measure to the exact sciences. The lecture was made especially en tertaining by reproductions of the cloistered studio, the paintings and architecture and sculpture with the aid of a stereopticotr, and the music, with the assistance of Pi of. Haydn Evans and a tpuaitette consisting of Mrs. Liiie Hughes-Brundage, so prano; Miss Margaret Jones, alto; Thomas Bejnon, tenor, and Richard Thomas (Elew Herbert) bass. The most delightful moments of the even ing were wnen the lecturer, in elo quent phtasis, described some grand masterpiece, to the accompaniment of an appropriate Gregorian chant or some kirrdred soulful music, rendered In subdired tones bv the quartette and organ, stationed behind the scenes. It was peculiarly Impressive wlren there was thrown orr the canvas the repre sentation of some such scene us Grutnet's "Trio in the Convent," Its companion painting, "Siesta In the Cloister." or Corregio's "Holy Night," to which the "Adeste Fldells" is held us inseparable. Preceding the lecture, Attorney R. J. Burke, of John Boyle O'Reilly coun cil No. 134, Young Men's Institute, un der the auspices of which organization the lecture was given made a brief speech In which he outlined the alms and principles of the Institute and elaborated upon Its motto, "Pro Deo; Pro Patrla" "For God and Native Land " At the conclusion of the lec ture an Informal reception was ten dered Senator Corcoran at the Insti tute looms In the old Traders' Na tional Bank building. Senator Corcoran represents In the Ohio senate the district comprising the city of Cincinnati. He is a joung man and a lawyer, und Is specially dis tinguished as a lecturer arrd political writer, much of his talent being de voted In the line of newspaper work. He holds the position of supreme first v lie-president In the Young Men's In stitute. SHE IS KNOWN HEREABOUTS. A Drrnmore Marriage Annulled in the Windy Cit. The following Item from the Chicago Dispatch of the 18th Inst, is of local Interest fiom the fact that the subject Is a native of these parts and recently appeared In Davis' Theatre In this city "Bebsle J Eastwood Is on her way to Join the theatrical company with which she Is connected, and cariles a new di vorce decrte. "Eate on Saturday her case was heatd by Judge Gibbons, who at once con cluded that Mrs. Eastwood was en titled to her freedom. The defendant wus S. Douglas Eastwood, who married her Match 10, 1890, at Dunmore, Pa, They lived together until September 1C, 1S9C. "Mrs, Eastwood Is engaged with A Bunch ot Keys Company, and was formeily quite prominent in certain west side social cltcles. Her parents now live on Washington boulevurd, and are fairly well todo Mrs. East wood has two children, Henry F. and Blunche Eastwood, the custody of whom was uw aided to her, According in an aim i. alio nana. 1. n .1 nv... ..n... i.v. 4,v. niUlJ ODD llGtd KUU Uijji JJU1 tlcular trouble with her husband and the separation was the result tit nan compatibility.

An effort was made to have the evidence heard by Judge Tuthlll at 4.30 o'clock Friday afternoon, but he had gone homo befote the parties arrived. Mis. Eastwood had to, on this account, de lay her depatture foi the east one day." Prior to her marriage, Mrs. Eastwood, or Eastman to lefer to her by her pioper name, vvasi Miss Bessie Fuller. She resided on the West Side where her father was" a merchant and she subse quently moved with her patents to Peckvllle. "While living there she vas married to a man named Eastman. SECOND NIGHT OF BEN HUR Large Audience Saw the Spectacular Pantomlmc'-Cun Be Seen This Afternoon and Evening. "Ben-Hur" was witnessed nt the Frothlngham la3t night by an audletrce larger than on the opening night and which was privileged to see the Im provement that was to be expected w lth a second effort. There w as a more noticeable promptness, and whatever .stiffness attended the Initial perform ance was entirely absent, things Indi cative that the merit of this afternoon's and tonight's presentation will be most excellent. Thero was no change in the pro gramme and no additional solos, Eloise Phelps, Miss Spencer und Miss Simpson dancing the individual numbers with tho rrurltorlous grace as on Thursday night. The latter's work is all the more commendable when Is considered the fact that she had but three rehearsals lrr which to learn the intricate figures of her darrce. The solo had been as signed to another who was unable to take part and Miss Simpson wns select ed with but a, few days in which to rehearse. While all the dances are exceptional ly well executed, those of the little girls as the Butterllies and Sprites Fantasle seem to be leceived with the most favor. The draper ones are Mrs. Frank Jetmyn arrd Mis. C. It. Paike. A misprint in the programme makes the latter's name ap pear as "Packer." Whatever partiality Is shown the little ones, however, is wholly due to the spirit of sympathy always attached to Juveniles and does not Indicate that the dancing of the joung ladles can be criticised. Their execution's splendid and it Is hard to imagine any Improvement. The names of the three young ladles who appear In the statuary tableau are not lrr the programme. They aie Miss Nellie Drake, Miss Hull and Miss Grace Conley. The lower boxes last night were sold to C. S. Weston, E. L. Fuller and T. II. Watklns and Major J. W. Oakford, the latter being the purchaser of two; an upper box to C. D. Jones, the lower loges to W. T. Smith, E. B. Sturges, Judge E. N. Wlllaid and Major Everett Warren, and the upper logos to T. J. Foster, Henry Belin, Jr., C. D Jones, H. P. Simpson and J. B. Dlmmick. It was incorrectly stated yesterday that all the seats had been sold for last night and that but few were to be obtained for the two performances to day. T'p to 7 o'clock last night many desirable seats were unsold; for today's matinee and night performances good seats may be obtained. COLLEGE OF COMMERCE NOTES. Our new course of study.

NEVER FAILS Astonishing Record of the Great Paine' Celery Compound. mmnJmnmi Palne's celery compound has never et failed to cure. Where all other medical treatment has failed to relieve, Palne's celery impound has succeeded time and time again. John W. Uod, of Mlshawaka, lnd says of his own case: "East winter I was taken down with a very severe attack of nervous and mus culur rheumatism, so bad thut I could not He down, sit up, or stand, without the most excruciating pain. I was all the time under the care of two of the best physicians of the place, but I did not Im prove. I took different rheumatic cures and used an electric battcrj a half hour each day for 10 dajs, without any relkf. "Finally I concluded to try Palne's cel ery compound, and to my surprise after using one-half of a bottle I was able to get out and vote on election dav, and be fore I used the whole bottle I went to work, and have worked ever day .since. ANOTHER FROM LACKAWANNA. Peter Mullen Objects to P. I". l'olc 's Nomination tor School Director. According to Peter Mullen's sworn declaration the right of suffrage Is not wholly regulated by statute down In the southwest district of Lackawanna county. Mullen yesterday filed objections to the nomination of Patrick F. Foley for the office of school director and the objections were based orr tho grounds that four non-residents of tho district and sixteen or more non-residents of the United States were voted by the Folejltes; and further, the primary board pursued its duties without first being sworn. In his lecital of particulars Mullen avers that according to Democratic custom in the township, the conferees apportioned the nomination for school director to the southwest district. Jan uary 9 the prlmaties were held. Foley received 93 votes and Mullen 92. Be fore the vote was finally counted a To ley ballot was found In a box other than the one used as a ballot-box and this was also counted. Daniel Hait nett, James Reaidon, Michael Shea, and Timothy Collier, Ji who voted for Foley, he alleges were not residents of tho district and James Cotter, Mich ael Hartnett, Patrick Hartnett, James Hartnett, Jacov Sencalrch, William Reseski, James Selveska, Fiank Paskl, Powele Paskl, Stanley Gowestkl, Jarrres Shea and others also voted, and voted for Foley, though non-residents of the United States. Each and every one of them was challenged, but the board dis regarded the challenges. Another giound for the contest is that the board entered upon Its duties without taking the oath provided by law. Court upon receiving the petition fix ed January 27, at 9 o'clock a. m as the time for hearing the arguments in the case. RECITAL BY PUPILS. Given Yesterday Afternoon in the Studio of J. 91. Chance.

Amused u I.argu Audience nt the Avnilumy Last Night. Jovial Pete Dalley, the greatest jollier In the business, was at the Academy of Musle lust night irr his new farce "A Good Thing." Dalley Jollied the au dience, the membeis of the company and he even drew a hinlle from the stage hands occasionally. The farce Is about something or other In some way related to a femule seminary and an unction house hut the subject matter of the farce leally doesn't make any "nev er mind," to use the classic language of Buck Morurr In the "Rising Genera tion." Dalley wns thaie and that wns enough. But he was not tho only one. Fiom Irwin, who stepped into the shoes ol her Bister, May Irwin, as Dalley's leading lady, was very much In evi- l ilencu irr threo dlfuuMiit, characters, Hho Is uniquely clever and sang her favorite negto songs last night In a way that called forth unbounded ap plause, James T.
