their views upon the momentous ques
tions of the ilny, another rlergynmn,

For Archbishop Chappelle, of the
'Catholic diocese of Louisiana, who has
Just been appointed apostolic delegate
to Porto Hlco, and who Is to bear the
same relation to his church In Cuba,
end probably to the church In the Phil

Furthermore, In his visit to Hume he

which It is presumed not even the ad

The' archbishop duos not usrec with
thesrt of lils felluw-idergynien who see
In the course of events nothing to
K've them hope but murh to give them
despair. He disagrees with Senator
Hoar, with whom he Is personally and
rlcasnnUy acquainted (for the arch
bishop was for some years rector of
fit Matthew's church, In Washington,
which all the diplomatic corps who
were of the Catholic faith attended).
In the opinion that the beginning of
the destruction of the republic will be
debated from McKlnley's administra
tion, If under that administration cer
tain things with respect to the Philip
pines are done
rchlilshon Chappelle In convinced
that under McKlnley's Inspiration
oorythlrtg will be done which will be
for the benefit of the people of the
t'nlted States and the peoples of t1ioe
now countries which are to come under
the protection of the American Hag
that can be done.
The archbishop accepts expansion as
a thing determined, as something too
late to be discussed. It Is lure, and
yf must, In his opinion, make the best
ef tt, n"d tile tiest of It, he says, means
erythlng that niav redound to the
honor and welfare of the United States
.and the progress and prosperity of
those peoples who hnvi recently come,
or who are about to come, under our
protection.
Archbishop Chappelle was summon
ed to Rome a few weeks after the pro
tocol was signed by. the representative.!
of the novel mncn'li' of the United
Suites and Spain. Jle did not. know
,vh' he was thu summoned. He ar
rived In'llome onlv a few diiys before
the perW'eommlsslon began lis work
In PViris. He was In Home nearly three
weeks. The pope received him. learn
ed from him many things which the
Vatican .is bein extremely nnxlous to
know. Information It Is fair to infer
that it was ltiipoituut to know in view
f the new relation which the Catholic
chu'reh in the ntilles and the Philip
pines is to enter into with respect to
the civil niillHii'lllex.
THH ARCHIIISHOP IX PA It IS.
i-'rom Home the archbishop went to
Paris If h" there saw the American
peace commissioners, he deems it 1i-m
to make no announcement of the fuel,
although he has personal acquaint. Hue
v llli all of them and even a friendship
tlit Is almost Intimate with one or
tv-o. While In Pnrls the rivhblphop re.
eelved a letter from the cardinal seere
tnfy of stat". reqaesting him to re
main in that city until he had received
u communication from the Vatican.
week later the communication
came, mi rviiuing It the archbishop
dtscov red that he, had been appointed
apostolic delegate to Porto Hlco and
t Cuba, and also that he h.tu been
placed In charge of the Interests of the
church In the Philippine Islands. Ho
was not appointed apostolic delegate to
the Philippines evidently, bemuse
Hpiln has not yielded her sovereignty
In those Islands, and he could mu,
therefore, In accordance with the cus
tom or regulations, be oillelully desig
nate 1 there us the representative of
the pope. It is a lair Inference, bow
el er. that as soon us Spain cedes her
soveielgnty ovei the Philippines to the
1 'nltcd Stutes Archbishop Chappelle
villi also be named npostolle delegate
to the ircblpelago.
lie has, therefore-, pieclsely the au
thority within his olllce that Cardinal
Satolll had when he was sent to the
I'nited States. Ills authority is su
preme, subject, of course, to the dis
cretion and power of the Pope. Ha
did not know that he was to be ap
pointed to this olllce. He did know
that tt was deemed wise that an Amer
ican prelate ihouhl be placed In such
responsible post.

He Is, therefore, the ofllclal represen
tative of the pope, nnd of the church
In Porto Rico nnd Cuba, and In nil
probability will be In the Philippines,

un Inspiration to hear speak of our In
stitutions, our Impulses nnd who has

Mirposes of the American people, ns a
hole, nnd In tho chnracter of the In
t'ueiico which they will exert upon tho
i.ru peoplo who nro to come within tho
nay of their Influence.
FREIinOM OF r.fiLICWON.
rrhblshop Chappelle expects to
pond nn hour or two with President
M -Klnley tomorrow or perhaps enily
next week, and he will then go to New
Orleans to look after the Interest of his
diocese, and as soon as convenient
thereafter will go to I'orto Hlco, and,
after the Spanish troops have, departed
from Cuba, will visit that Island. I.nter
he may go ti the Philippines.
He fei-i the responsibility nnd the
opportunity which his otllclal character
pUccs upon him. He will hnvo more
lnlluence with the peoplo of Porto Hlco
and of Cuba, so far as moral lnlluence
nnd 11 good understanding of the pur
poses of tho United States are con
cerned, than will the military governor
of those Islands.
His first duly, aside from the tech
nical and otllclal obligations relating
to church affairs, will be. he says, to
Impress upon the people of the Antilles
this fact which they do not at present
fully understand, namely, that the Uni
ted States, v.hile It has no state relig
ion, and under its constitution can
hivp none, nevertheless Is expressly
pledged to protect evfrv citizen In all
his religious rights and to guarantee
to him the fullest liberty to worship
Ood after the manner which his con
science approves.
He will explain to the Catholics of
Porto Hlco and Cuba that they are as
safe In their religious associations and
responsibilities under the '.rovernment
of tho United Slates us they would be
under that of Great Britain or under
that of Spain.
This government will Impose no bur
dens upon them, utmn their church,
upon their church property which It
does not '.nroose upon the citizens of
the United Slates, and the only bur
dens of that kind are those which citi
zenship involves, obedience to law.
There will he no taxing of churches
or of church property for the benefit ot
the stale, wherea's, on the other hand,
that property will receive the fullest
protection which the power ot the
United States can give.
Hut aside ironi this, th" archbishop
is of the opinion that he car Inform
thn people ot Cuba and of Porto Rico
and later on of the Philippines with
respect to the character of American
Institutions and the purpose of the
Ameiican people better, probably, than
any ot the military otllcers. since ho
will go to those people clothed with the
authority of the church and represent
ing in no sense otllclally the authority
of th- government ot the United
States.
NO TRIBUTE FROM CHURCH.
lie will persuade them that they
haw nothing to fear but everything to
hope when they are under the protec
tion of and are allied In such manner
as may be deemed wise by congress to
the United Stntes. He means to per
suade them that this government does
not expect to exact tribute or sevenue
from them. That Us only hope is. so
far as revenue Is concerned, that In
creasing trade relations may be of
mutual benel't.
This government proposes to protect,
them in every right that Its own citi
zens enjoy nnd to guarantee them all
the bletslngs of civil and leltgious lib
erty. It will encourage them In tho de
velopments of their own resources and
It will aid then In all ways proper for
I so.enur.ent aid t- be extended. Their
i future under Mich protection Is in their
! o.n hands and If they do not take ad
vantage of the opportunity which Is
now theirs they themselves will be the
chief sufferers.
The archbishop says thut a great deal
so fur as early successes are concerned
will depend upon the first organization.
He hopes that wine of the mistakes
which vvejp committed In our recon
struction era will be avoided.
lie believes that wider proper organ
ization, tile economic, .omtuerclnl and
social advantages which can be made
to llow from the new relation of these
people will begin very soon to liuv
themselves and will establish confi
dence both on the part of tho people of
the Antilles and of the Philippines and
also on the part of the people of the
United States'.
The archbishop has no doubt that
under wise guidance, prudent organ
ization, statei-manlike handling of the
questions which will be before this gov
ernment, tho benefits which will How
both to the people of the United States
and to those recently under Spain's
dominion will fur curpuss thu expec
tations even of the most ardent sup
porters of expansion but will also do
that much sooner than any of us now
believe to be possible.
It will be his endeavor, therefore, to
have.the first steps taken wisely. He
will use all his authority and lnlluence
In the Antilles to give the people there
confidence in the put-pones of the United
States. He has ubldlng faith In the
president and his administration and
he has no doubt that congress will rise
to the full measure ot the statesman
ship which the situation demands.
This, then, Is tli view as fully set
forth as ofllclal obligations make pos
sible of the clergyman who is not only
to represent the supreme nuthorlty of
his church, but also as nn American
citizen to teach these peoples what
American citizenship Is and what the
Inspiring purpose of the United States
must be with respect to these new re
sponsibilities, and bis faith and cour
age and confidence In his country may
be set beside the appalling and pessi
mistic nnd almost suspicious view
which Dr. Parkhurst saw fit to give his
hearers on Thanksgiving Day.

Sunday School Lesson for December 11.
Try 5 rag to Destroy God's Word.
Jer. XXXYJ, 20-32.
BY J. E. GILBERT, D. D., LL. D.,
Secretary of American Society of Religious Education.
INTRODUCTION. In tho last lesson
we learned how .loslah prized the book
of tho Lord which Illlklah found In the
temple, nnd how ho obtained counsel
from Huldfih, because of the nation's
sin. One would expect that the vvurn
Ing of the prophetess would load to
permanent reform, but Jehoiaklm, .To
slab's son. on succeeding to tho throno
oppposod tho godly course of bin fath
er and sought to re-lnstnto idolatrous
worship. Jeremiah, the prophet, deep
ly distressed at this, caused Haruch to
write a. message to the king .which was
to be sent to certain members of the
court that their Influence might be se
cured In Its behalf. (Verse 11.) This
procedure Indicates that Jehoiaklm
was not kindly -disposed toward the
prophet, and, accordingly, that he could
not bo freely approached. After chang
ing hands- several times the message
came to the princes, those who were
supposed to be near the king, nnd they
dismissed Haruch, directing- him to re
main In some secret place unknown to
anyone as a condition of safetv. (Verse
19.)
CONCBAL-KD. As a further precau
tion to avoid the king's anger the prin
ces inld up the roll of Jeremiah in "the
chamber of Klis-haina the scribe," who
had succeeded Shapan, the scribe In
Joslnlfs time. (2 Kings, xxil, S.) That
was a very proper place for the doc
ument as the set the was the legal cus
todian of nil such matters. It may be
assumed that he was a faithful ser
vant, nnd that he would preserve what
was thus committed to him. More
over, the message acquired added force
and sanctity. At ilrst It was only the
will of the prophet, acknowledged In
deed to oo n mouth-piece of Ood, but,
after Its deposit In the chest with oth
er sacred writings'. It acquired an ofll
clal character and would be so regard
ed for ever after. Having thus laid
away with the temple scribe what had
been written, the princes proceed with
some caution to the king, (verso "0) and
make known the contents to him. Hy
this act their influences were exerted
to secure proper hearing the Influence
of Jeremiah, whom nil regarded as a
man of God, the Influence of Kllshnma,
who had filed Jeremiah's words; the In
fluence of the princes, the helpers and
advisers in the government.
BROUGHT. On hearing the rtate
rr.ent of the princes Jehoiaklm sent a
servant to fetch the roll (verse 21.)
There Is no disclosure of the king's
motive whether he was prompted by
curiosity or malice. The servant read
and Jehoiaklm and his princes lis
tened, the latter -tandlng reverently
beside the ruler. The scone was not
unlike- that presented when Shaphan
read the book of the Lord to Joslah,
a few years before (2 Kings. xxll:10.)
Only, In the earlier instance It was tho
law of Moses that was heaid while in
the later case It was the word of vvorn
Intf from Jeremiah the first showing
what Israel must do to please -God, the
last showing what had been done to
displease Him. It is probable that
Moses was held in greater reverence,
for be had been long dead, and Uio in
stitutions of the nation rested on him:
while Jeremiah was still living, and by
his many bold and earnest woids had
aroused the animosity of evil men.
MANILA'S SPEEDWAYS.
Sights to Be Seen Along i6 Santa
Lucia nnd Luuettn.
From the Chicago Becoril.
The great show places of Manila are
the Kanta Lucie and the Luuettn. Thee
dilves run fiom the Paslg river, along
the sen front ot the walled city, and
then out across the Immense open pa
rade ground which separates the walls
of Manila from the suburbs of F.rmlta.
They are practically on.- continuous
road, but the mile thnt fronts the city
walls Is called the Lucia und the broad
er oval park-like. "tension is the Lun
ctta. Bows of waving, stubby palm
trees mark the edges of the drives and
electric light pules line the borders
throughout their entlro length. In the
old dujs these avenues were famous
for their beauty and display. It Is
doubtful whether nny other city In the
orient could rival them for brilliance
and fashionable luxury.
It is nlso doubtful whether another
drive exists which Is so grim In tragic
memories ns the beautiful Luuettn.
Hundreds ot Filipinos have been exe
cuted there. In the umrnlnss the
crowds would throng thelrives to see
the Filipinos shot nnd In the evening
they would gather again 'o hear the
music at the bandstand. But the war
has stopped all of thai. The Luuettn
became neglected as tho Insurgents
kept advancing closer and loser to
the borders of the city. Tne Spanish
olllclals who hnd robbed arid murdered
to their hearts' content were afraid to
venture out at night bejond the walls
of the city for fear of being assassin
ated by natives who hungered for re
venge. Strong barricades were built at
the corner of the vvulled city Just where
the Luclu merges Into tin broader Lun
etta. and the Spaniards never ventured
beyond that barricade of railroad Iron
nnd sacks of earth. When the Amer
icans tool: the city It w.is days and
days before the proud Spuuluids would
shev themselves, hut now they are
aain venturing out beyond the walls
and the Hantu Lucia Is regaining some
thing of Us former irayety.
In tho evening when the sun Is sink
ing behind the Mnrwiles mountains
the wealth and fashion of the Snnnlsh
Mnnlla emerges from the gloomy
streets of the wnlled city nnd shows
lt""lf In dress parade on the voter
front. All the soldiers who are pris
oners of war also come out for a
breathing spell. Carriages roll up
nnd down and back nnd forth through
the short length of the Luclu. Bows
of other vehicles are drawn up along
tho edges, the occupants smoking and
lazily watching tho passing dhow.
Pretty women, bareheaded, and dress
ed In cool, refreshing white, look en
chanting to one who has seen nothing
but yellow and brown Malay girls all
summer and whose experiences In so
ciety have been routined to young,

purpose was accomplished he had
spoken to the king and delivered the
words which God had bidden him to
speak. His duty was done, nnd the re
sponsibility was with Jehoiaklm.
BUIiNHD. Tho leading was attend
ed by a mos-t remnrknblo occurrence,
Without walling until the roll was
completed the king caused pages or col
umns to bo cut oft with a per. knife
and cast into the fire, and this was
continued until the whole wns con
sumed (verses 22 and S3.) Those who
wero present manifested no groat con
cern (verse SI), except that three of
the princes vainly endeavored to pre
vent the binning ( verve 2.'.) This net
of JeholaUini was a deliberate exhibi
tion of contempt for the utterances of
Jeremiah, an cxpicsslon of nn obsti
nate resolution to continue his course.
Perhaps he hoped to nullify the word
of God by destroying it, or nt least to
prevent any further spread of the tid
ings contained In It. All this displayed
the enmity of his mind, the depravity
of his heart, the perversity of his will.
Tho act of the king was the more cul
pable because he bad heard from tho
same source slmllnr predictions of
God's Judgments, many of which had
already been fulfilled. His stato of
semi-subjection to Nebuchadnezzar at
the time was proof tnat the evil fore
told was nt bund.
HIDDEN. The destruction of tho
roll did not appease the king, in fact
his linger was kindled, not merely
against the message, but ugalnst the
men who had prepared It. They wero
considered to be troublesome fellows
oven as Ahnb regarded Klijah (I Kings.
xvlll'.lT.) Jehoiaklm was so Joined in
his Idols, so committed to his sinful
ways, that every aiterference seemed
to him to bo Impertinent and offensive.
A-cordlngly three .ill! -ere were sent to
arrest Jeremiah and Haruch (verse 20),
i, tvr, men who. above all others.
should have been esteemed for their
Piety and for their disinterested ef
forts to save tho nation from the Im-n.iiiii-
ruin. But God did not forget
Ills servants. It might have been
proper in the ex.cutlon of His pur
poses to suffer tli.-m to die as martyrs
as John the Baptist did (Mark, vl, 27),
for sometimes the blood of the Milnls
serves the enure of rlghteou-ness more
than their voices can, but in this in
stance the holy nun were hidden away
In safetv. preserved by Jehovah lor
future usefulness.
OBDKRKD. Jeremiah and Baruch,
In their retirement, were culled Into
Immediate service for God, as Luther
was in the 'U'nrtburg. They were or
dered to reproduce what had been de-Ktr-yod
(verses 27 and 28). That must
hive been a comparatively easy task.
Having written the document In the
first place and read It neveral times
afterward, It Is probable that Bnruch
would have no trouble to recall it. If
his memory failed Jeremiah might re
fresh him. Two men. well nerutulnted
v -in n matter In which botli were
deeply Interested, would be likely to
forgft Very little. Besides, the Holy
Splill had Inspired and guided the
prophet In the first preparation (II
Peter i: 21), and it Is generally be

not be absent when, nt His direction,
the work of reproduction was at
tempted. C0ND13MNKD. The act of lohola
klm In burning the roll could not bo
passed over In silence. He bad at the
same time despised and rejected Je
hovah. Jeremiah was instructed there
fore to speak to the king concerning
himself. Beforu the prediction pertulncd
to tho kingdom (vone 29), but now to
the ruler. A fearful retribution await
ed him (verses 30 and 31). He should
be put to death, and his body should
be cast out, exposed to the glaring
sun's heat by day and to the frost by
night, precisely what Jeremiah had
foretold of him (Jer. xxll: 19), Indicat
ing the terrible character ot the siege
by which Jerusalem would be reduced.
Furthermore, none ot his posterity
should succeed him on the throne of
Judali, ns had also been declared (Jer.
xxll: 30). in short nn Ignominious end
awaited him, ns "it condemnation from
the Lord for his Iniquity.
UKSTOItRD. Pursuant to the com
mand of God Just noticed) the roll was
re-wrlttcn (verse 32), a complete copy
taken down with care, to which were
added much other matter, probably of
an historic or religious character. What
became of the book? Some have
thought that It was retained by Jere
miah, us part ot the literature avail
able in the companies ot the prophets.
Some have thought that it was laid
up, as tho first book was, In tho custody
of Kllshamn, to become thus a section
In the sacred writings held by the
priests. But wo nre not Informed of
Its disposition. A more Important ques
tion is, Of what value was it' First,
It was an abiding proof that the King
was impotent in attempting to oppose
the Almighty. Second, it proved thnt
the word of the Lord endured (I Peter
I: 2.".). Third, for the time it served a
high purpose as a witness against the
nation and the king. Finally, it was
afterward, when the captivity came, n
proof that God had been faithful with
His peoplo (II Chron. xxxvl: IE).
HKFLKCTIONS. Two points are of
special Interest In this lesson. First,
There are degrees of guilt among the
ungodly, and condemnation will be pro
portioned. Some arrive quickly at the
height of impiety and presumption.
Many act as If their outrages against
the word of God could save them from
Its denunciations, or us If their Irra
tional Infidelity could Invalidate and
render the sacred oracles of none effect.
Such pel sons should be openly opposed,
whatever their station or abilities. Sec
ond, The Lord will protect those who
nre vullant for His truth until thev
"have flnisned their testimony," and
then It Is of sunall consequence by what
method they are removed to their re
ward. They may therefoie with much
boldness and patience continue their
good work, for God will honor those
who honor Illm, and in His own time
He will bring to pass His glory through
tlaiii, so that In tho end It shall appear,
that, though persecuted, they have not
lived In vain (Dan. xll: 13).
The carriuges gradually disappear
within the somber snllyports of the
old moss-covered walls, and at S.30
hardly one remains. The Spanish sol
diers still linger along the little ben
ches until the hour conies for them to
return within the walls, and then Lu
cln and Liincttu. are quiet. Only nn
occasional carromatta rattle over the
beautiful drive.
