The largest. moit lepiospntallve and cultuied audience that has attended a lectuto of the Ht. Thomas college couise f jjj PAVOHITP 1'OPTO was that which last night hciml R .,',,. " . .' V Mm Ion Crawford's descilptlon of Leo. MiRll anil Dante are his favoille XIII. in the Vatican. It was a lectin e j l'ot'ts- Ite " a wonderful memory that cleseivcd such an audlonce-ln ml " luott i whole passages of either, fact, no audience could be too good for On one occasion he recited from mem it. Tim i. h.mi.i it nuieed that It . ""' l" t,l( B?nt astonishment of some was one of the ginndest llteraiy treats that could bo wished for Mr. Ci aw ford was introdured with l one ot ltev. I). .1. MncOnldllek'M jui'tty little spteches, and It Is sufe to say that if the lecturer had not alieady been on Intimate terms of acquaint nntcshlp with evety one of his henrer.s, he would have been so by leather Mac floldilcl;'s inesentiitlnn. Mr. rinwford Is u tall, handsome man of athletic build, with hair slightly throne ho was opposed by nenrly ull of tlngid with gray. His noso Is shaip Europe. Despite till-, he has made it and luiu.illne. his eves expressive und I'HUIuiit success of his reign anil hns pleiclng and his countenance nil in all heeoinu one of tho most Important fac of a verv pleasing cast. To hear him , tms ln t'le alTalts of Hurope. one would stnely think him to be a' Afu''' refeiilng to the Pope's teni Hrlton to the manor bom. rather than ' I""al soveielgnty, which the lecturer an Amei lean, who has spent u goodly i '"?aided as a leasonable light linrtlon of ills life in Home Ho hays hecntise the T'ontlff should not be "Pi aw nee" us onlv nu nngllslinian or1" subjei t, and unless he Is a sov affecttd Hostonlnn can fay It. but with I eielgn he must be a subject he him theie was no affectation. It was mi tin al and musical. An outline of Mr. Crawford's veiy Interesting lee tut e can convey no ade quate Idea of the delightful manner of Its piesentnllon. It gives his subject matter, however, and by clothing this with the direct, exact and beautiful language of Mr. Ciawloid's books one can guin an idea uf what his audience enjoyed. SITUJHCT NOT AX HASY ON'i:. The subject , the lecturer said, was not mi easy one. It Is one that Catho lics npuroaeh with the greatest deli cacy and lespect. and meinbeis of other lollglons with a certain amount of dlstiust. "I am going to tiy to place bpfoie voti," Mr. Ciawfoul said, "the peisonnllt of Leo XIII " Thu lecturer ilist gave n bilef sketch of Hut ope nt the time of Leo's accession to tho papacy, and then for contrast told bi Icily of the ehaiacter of Plus IX., his piedeeessor. Plus IX. was descilbed by Ml. Craw loid as a man too good for the age In which lie lived and loo weak for any age. An at count of eveiy one of his political aits begins "The Pope hesi tates." ii,. was the kindest and best of men hltrelf. but his light hand man, Cardinal Antonelll, was neither kind nor gentle. Although a ciudlnnl, An tonelll was not a priest. He was un .sei millions; u lighter und a schemer, and might be Justly compaied to Cavour or liismaick. An interesting bit of the lecture was Mr. Crawford's description of An tonelli's cmde manner of living and his shabby lodgings In Home, which the lectuier lsited a few liouis after the umllnal's death. i Speaking of Victor Hmuiuiel, the lec tuier said he was n line old king and n gallant man, and he would not hae btoken lil.s vow bj taking Home If cir cumstances bad not forced him to It. "When the king was dying he asked the Pope's bltsrlng. That same year. IMS, Plus IX. died and Leo XIII. was elected pope. He was then fiS years of age. He was boin Count Joachim Pecti at Carpleneto. Southern Italy. In 1S10 and now, al though ncaily 90 yen is of age, ho Is un appaiontly stiong and active physic ally and mentally ns he was ten or fifteen eats ago. LIKH LIVi: ALAHAST13R. He bears a stt iking leseinblance to his fnther and mother. It Is from the latter that he InliPilts his peculiar ill m set Jnw and characteristic mouth, with its thin lips, which seem eer bent on milling. Another sti iking chaiacter lstlc Is his complexion. His face seems as if made out of live alabaster. He possesses the tall, sinewy, broad sliouldeied fiame of the .southern mountaineer; his features are aquiline and Ills eyes marvelously blight. His every movement is quick, and when walking he travels ut a veiy inpld pace for one of his ycais. Phjsically he bears a strong resem blance to Mr. Olad.stone and 'President Lincoln. All tlnee men had great physical stiength In their jouth and all callable of profound study. In Lin coln the teal and material weie upper most; In Gladstone, the intellectual was tho striking featuie; in Leo, the spiritual was the most pronounced, Leo's early life was spent In tho open air. Ho wns fond of oeielo and out door .sports, nnd at an eailv ngo ini Mbeil a large .store of good common sense. Flist he was a priest, then a nuncio nt Hrussels, nnd next Aichblshop of Perugia, where ho lived for a long time. As an instnnce of the liberality of Leo's views, Mr. Ciawfoid told of how he opened his house at Peiugla to the government ofTleeis at a time when thire was a bitter dispute between the government and tho Vatican. Leo appioaches us nearly as any one the well-balanced character. Ho is a great statesman, a rlpo scholar and the soul of piety. He has u raie, healthy bobrletv of Judgment and Is simple and htrnlghtfonvard, but not without a requisite nublu caution. He Is extraordinarily skilled In wilting Latin and Italian verse. lit does not speak English. Mr. Crawfoid stated parenthetically, without maintaining tha. the Pope Is the greatest man of the age, that he is the most evenly balanced of gieat men nnd has th must stubbornly same disposition. HIS CHEAT ACTIVITY. A most remarkable chaiacterlstlc of Leo Is his great activity. Although S8 years of uge, he Is constantly occu pied. Ho sleeps but four or Jive hours, and not Infrequently in found asleep In his chair, vvlieio ho had been woik ing all night without having gone to bed. After Using In the morning ho cele brates a low iiiiu.s and attends another, which is generally celebrated by his chaplain. This concluded, he break fasts on coffee and milk. Goat's milk la his preference, he having acquit ed a liking for It In his mountainous day.s. A herd of goats is kept to supply his needs. After breakfast lie recolves until 10 o'clock, when ho takes a cup of broth. Ho winks until 2 p, m. and then dines. Ills physlclun naya that Leo does not cat no much In n. week ns on ordinary 111 nil would at n meal. Ho taken n imp In the afternoon nnd then coos out for 11 drive with one of his t'liainkerlaln. Ho descends from lila npartinontB In an olevntor and In borne to his carriage In a edan chair. Two Noble auariln ride around with lilm. His drive In confined to the Vati can guidons. I.eo Ih very fond ot Improvements and Is constantly udillnc to the rich ness nnd beauty of the Vatican grounds and buildings. When he or dels something to be done he atippr vbes the work himself. Most ot his time Is spent In the beautiful little palace which he himself has built. There he receives his visitors. In the nuinmer time he docs not to tutn to his palace until half an hour after mtnset, known as the hour of Ae Mm In. Ho holds evening seivlce, piayeis being said by the chaplain. Later, he has a frugul supper, and then Ih left to himself. Finnd-can friars, who were his call- ei. the whole eleventh canto of Dante's 'I'mndlso." He is a great leader of 1 the dally ires, but unlike other sov- cielgns Ids leading is not cut out lor him He himself picks out what he wants to rend. He wiltes a great deal. Ills encyclicals nie political events in Hut ope. They me Hist published in Latin in the oran of the Vatican. When he fciicceeded to the pnpal touched upon the question of assent and obedient e in matteis not connect ed with faith. The "Infallibility of tho Pope" was too generally misunder stood, Mi. Claw foul said. The idea that he Is infallible In political or like utterances Is absuid. Infallibility k litted onlv to the Pope's utteiunces on matters of faith and then onlv when .spoken e cathedia, that is, in coun cil. The idea that American Catholics could allow political directorship by the Pope to take toot in their minds is ulso un utter absurdity. The Italian is hy nntuie, according to common repute and it is possibly true a 1 oin conspirator. The Catholic cniirch with Its wonderfully unique cenliall::atlnn of power, and woild- i w Icle lainlileutlons. Is unquestionably 'hi gicatest known agent lor canylng put some gieat conspiracy. Yet. who I has ever heaid of any attempt it the exit else of this power The idea of the Amei lean catholics foi instance being swayed In their pol itics by the tilt tales of their spiritual master is not to be entertained foi a nnment hj thinking' people. If Catho lics weie bound to obey Leo In matters of politics, it would logically lie taken thnt power of dictator would bo Inher ent in the pap-icy. Imagine again the church "xpectlng American Catholics to heed the political behests of Alex ander VI or the politically Insignifi cant Plus IX. In closing, Mr Crnwoid said that Leo has dune moie to stiengthen the chuich than nil the popes who have lived In the last two hundred years. HHCHPTION AND HANQl'KT. Following the lecture t licit? was a public reception, which permitted Mr. Ciaw ford's Pcranton admirers to meet him peisonally.

CHIEF JUSTICES OF PENNSYLVANIA llamplon L. Carson ol the Philadelphia Bar Spoke About Them. VERY INTERESTING DISCOURSE. 3 .III. Carson Dwelt I'pon thu Proinl netit Clinrnctcrlitli'S ol the .11 en Who Unto Left Their Impress on the iii'g.tl History offhis Common venlth"Aftrrwiiriln There M'ns mi In for nui I Itcccptlon nnd u Colin -tion--Yotc of Thanhs Touilurcd. The purpose of the meeting of the members of the Laekavvanna county bar, held last evening in the elegant room In the couit house, which has been recently lilted up for the use of the Superior court, was threefold In character and as successful In each paitlcular as even the most enthusi astic promoters of the event could do lie. The meeting was piimaiily for the purpose of being entertained and In structed by an nddiess on the "Char acteristics of the Chief Justices of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania," de livered by Hampton L. Cnrron, n mem ber of the Philadelphia bar, and to en able tho younger meinbeis of this bar to meet nnd commingle with the older members and theieby cement the bond of friendship. Incidentally the neces sity of Inci easing the membership, re serve fund and supply of books ln the Law Llbiaiy association was dwelt up on and the response was generous and surprising. Hitherto the Law Library has been dependent on the generosity of the older members of tho bai. many ot whom have pilvate law libraries of ie ppectable proportions, while the bene fits have been derived largely by the younger members to whom almost un limited license has been given. While enjoying, the younger members of the bar did not nbue this piivilege, nnd being appreciative they lesponded promptly' to the cnll made upon them. HAVE A SPECIAL ACT. Tho Luzerne- County Law library Is supported by thu lines and foi felted lecognlzances collected, under a special act of assembly, which could not bo duplicated now for the reason that It would be unconstitutional and a gen eral act might be equally dllllcult to obtain, therefore the llbiary must be sustained and Increased by the sub scriptions of the members. But the nddress was the ev ent of the evening and was delightfully onteitain Ing and Instinctive, showing careful leseaich and containing much valuable infoi inntion that is inaccessible to the aveugo lavvyei, though lie be quite familiar with mnny of the opinions handed dow n b.v the chief justices of the state. It was with regret that the audience witnessed the close of the nd diess, which was lather abiupt, owing to the lateness of the bout. Mr. Cnison prefaced his remarks by quoting the wouls of Abner Thomas, one of the eaily historians of Phila delphia, who wiote ten ears after the treaty of Penn. as follows: "Of doe tots and lawyeis I shall sav nothing, for the village is peaceable and hialthv , long may It nourish fieo from the pest Ifeious dregs of the one and the abom inable loquacity of the other; for they foisooth have license to make mischief. Nevertheless." he said, "when Penn came he found county comts In exist ence and he veiy wisely left them alone and irr addition established several other courts, a.s he had the noblest grant und most power ever given by u sovereign to a subject. FIRST CHIEF Jl'STtCE. "Penn niipolnted his cousin, William Cilspen, as the first chief justice, but he tiled on th" voyage out. Dr. Nich olas Mooie was the lit st chief justice. As a doctor h was the leading bleeder of his time, and It Is a popular super stition that 'bleeding' has passed fiom the medical to the Pgnl piofesslon. He was a haish, violent, head-strong man. and wns Impeached by the assembly and later ousted by Penn. John Guest wus tin? first tialned lawyei, the oth ois being la.vmen." High tilbutt-s were paid to the legal ability of Hoger Molnpesson and David Lloyd and to Isaac Nou Is, who fiomed the lnsciip tlon on the Liberty Bell, "Pioclaim lib eity throughout the land to all the In habitants thereof." William Allen was dwelt upon nt consldorabb length Ho was the first American Intel osted In establishing the Noithwt stern Passage. Being wealthy he assisted, Benjamin Fianklln to found the Pnlverslty of Pennsylvania. Being a patron of the arts he enabled Benjamin West to ncqulte the educa tion and skill with which ho aston ished the European aitlsts. To his public spli Redness we owe the site of the state house.
