to furnish this prize, nnd If they re
fuse, the president of tho Scranton
diocese will provide tho prize.
"I Intend, during tho coming fall and
winter, to try and get all the societies
organized In every pnrlsh In the cause
of totul abstinence. If every woman
would carry the banner of Father
Mathew, It would surely result In
much good. If we don't feel the cause,
we are not strict Father iMathow men
and women.
MUST IMITATE CHRIST.
"We must stoop down and pick up
tho fallen ns Christ did, associate with
them, lift them up, and got Into their
good graces, if we expect to win them
over to tho cause of total abstinence.
This is to be a great year for thr
cause, and if all will do their duty
always and carry on the work outlined,
wo will demonstrate to the national
convention at Hartford, Conn., next
vear that Scranton Is tho first diocese
in America In the cause of total ab
stinence." A motion prevailed that it be the
sense of the convention that all dele
gates representing their respective so
cieties make every effort in their power
to gain membeis for their societies, in
order to help IJev. J. J. Curran to re
deem his pledge mado attthe national
convention held In Philadelphia. The
vacancy In the treasurer's office was
filled by the selection of James Regan,
of West Scranton, who received 5G
votes to 20 cast for Edward Hayors, of
Pine Brook. The now official was in
stalled by President Curran. The invi
tation of St. John's society, of Pine
Brook, was accepted for the next
quarterly meeting three months hence.
Prior to adjournment, several of the
delegates discussed amendments to the
constitution which will be framed and
presented at the next diocesan conven
tion. Refreshments were served by the
ladles of the West Scranton societies
nnd a social session followed, at which
vocal and instrumental numbers were
given by several of the guests.
SUCCESSFUL SACKED CONCEBT.
Given in St. Thomas' College Hall
Last Night.
There have been successful sacred
concerts given in the past In St.
Thomas' College hall, but never a
more successful one than that of last
night, under the direction of Prof. W.
P. Schilling, musical director at St.
Peter's cathedral.
Four of the finest musical organiza
tions in the city the Cathedral choir,
St. Mary's choir, the Junger Maenner
chor and Bauer's orchestra partici
pated, and their efforts were heartily
appreciated by an audience which com
pletely taxed the Immense seating
capacity of the hall.
Mrs. Schilling, whose wondrously
clear and resonant soprano voice swas
in splendid condition, rendered two
solos, the "Inflammatus," from Ros
sini's "Stabat Mater," and Gounod's
"Jerusalem." Tn the first she was as
sisted by tho full Cathedral choir,
which also capably rendered a selec
tion from Mozart's Twelfth mass.
Tho Indies of the Cathedral choir
sang with charming effect a German
selection, "Das Klrchlein," by Becker.
The St. Mary's choir, under the leader
ship of H. Akermann, rendered a
mixed chorusi and joined with the
Cathedral choi in the concluding num
ber, which was "God of Nlsrht! We
Sing Thy Praise."
The Junger Maennerchor, undey the
direction of Gustav Schmidt, sang In
spirited and Inspiring style "Die Stllle
Wasser" and "Gruesse and die Koini
ath." One of the most interesting fea
tures of the programme was a lecture
on the "Stabat Mater," delivered by
Rev. Miles J. MeManus.
In beginning his remarks, he traced
tho development or evolution of music,
which lie referred to as "tho greatest
of nil arts which have blessed tho
world." Ancient Greece and Rome
gavo no great musician to the world,
becauso tho lives of their people were
devoid of tho true ideal. It remained
for Christianity, the speaker said, to
"make music a messenger of the
noblest emotions of the human soul,"
The "Stabnt Mater" is supposed to
have been composed by Jacobus do
Benedlctus, a Franciscan flnr, whoso
soul was consumed with a burning love
of God. "The theme," said the speaker,
"Is tho greatest that could engage the
intellectual faculties of man. The man
God dying upon a gibbet to explato tho
sins of tho world: His mother, moved
by all the tenderness that tho term
implies, keeping her sad vigil over His
smitten form these things were well
calculated to constitute a theme un
paralleled In tho annals of tho intel
lectual world,"
Father MeManus then described at
some leusth tho work of the various
composers who have set tho hymn to
music. He considers that 'none of the
composers have succeeded In "repro
ducing truly tho sublime emotions of
.Tacopane." In conclusion, he said!
"Tho nineteenth century, tho great
est of time's offsprings, is enjoying tho
result of ages of intellectual activity
under tho relining influences of Chris
tianity, Science and art mo faithfully
fulfilling their mission in enlightening
and elevating humanity. Thu eyes of
tho world aro turned toward the
'Queen of Arts' in anticipation of still
greater achievements In the limitless
regions of possibility.
"As some undiscovered mine may yet
unfold lis hidden trensuro of priceless
lems, so may this unlvetse of ours be
(ueath to some master yet unborn a
legacy of sound which under tho magic,
touch of tho art of muslo may repro
duce the soul of the 'Stabat Mater' In
ull Its beauty and magnificence."
The Tails exposition authorities have awarded
a Bold medal to Professor E. W, Scripture, head
of the psychological laboratory of Yale univer
sity, for a device for testing color blindness. The
device is of great practical value for testing the
sight ot applicants for railway and naval service,

ache to urinary disorders. How art
our promises kept? Ask any eltlzeiu

Mr. A. Ij. Brynnt, of 1384 WashW
ton avenue, bricklayer by trade, says:'
"I suffered all kinds of pain across
my back both day and night for clgh-.
teen years, and I tried all kinds of
kidney medicines and got very llttla
or no relief. I had about mado up my
mind that my caso could not be cured
when I read about people living right
here in Scranton who were cured by
Doan's Kidney Pills. This induced m
to got them at Matthews' drug store,
nnd before I had used one box I sawi
they were helping me. Tho pain in
my back was not so severe, and I was
feeling better otherwise. I used sla
or seven boxes and they gave me mora
comfort and relief than I experienced
for years."
