THE "DIVINA COMEDIA."
First of it Series of Lectures on
Dante's Masterpiece.
Tho first of 11 HerlcH of lltrco Icoluren
on fJnlito'K "Dlvlnii Comedlii" wils ttlv
:ii last tilRlit before (In; CiUholIu l!ls
torlcnl soelety by r'ninlf If. t'olleii, of
Now York rlty. 11 lecltifer of .oino
piomlneiieo In Illernry circles.
Itu took for the tuple of Ills Inctltto
fhn "Inreriio," or ili.it pnrt of tile poem
and llltrodtleed Ills sllbjeit with 11. few
Kcneial remarks on llio poet lilttiiiotr,
cIiiksIiik lilm ns one of tho meiitest
who have over lived, lie pointed out
that it Is only of Into years that Danto
has been Kouerally lecountned ns such
bcentise of tho hatred of noii-rathollrs
for iiiiythliiK' eonneeted with the mld
dlo UReii which have alwayH been false
ly connected, as Air. I'olleo claimed,
with superstition and religious corrup
tion, tie had a bono to plelt also with Iho
literary critics who seel; to show that
Dante wrote for his own iiru and his
own imo only.
"Panto's message nie.uis as much to
its olid It. will men 11 as much to the
people of the fortieth century as It
meant to the people of the thirteenth."
said he. "This lnessiiRe Is that as a
man chooses so shall lie have In the
order of eternal Juiliinient."
If is then took tip the first lines of the
poem In which tho poet describes hint-
1 self as boitiR "In a dreary mood astray"
Jjiml analyzed them to show the syui-
holism thai runs like 11 thread IhroiiRh
j tin: entire poem, Uo described thu
panther, the roariiiR lion and the lank
wolf which the poet met. The "dreary
wood," he said, represented the world
of sin and the three beasts sensuality,
pride and avarice, respectively, these
being the three eardlnal sins.
lie then described the poet's mecUitK
with Hie shade of Vit-Rii and the pll
RrlnuiRe of the two through the Rates
marked with that awful legend. "All
hope abandon ye who enter here," Into
the city of the damned and their Jour
ney through the nine circles to Katun's
oun abode.
Air. t'olleii took occasion to point out
the difference between Milton's Satan
.Hid Dante's, one representing the
Puritan idea and the other the essen
tial Catholic idea.
"Afilton," said he, "makes Satan out
1o be not a fallen angel but 11 fallen
hero, a spirit who tried and failed.
Dante makes his Satan a horrible, re
pulsive demon. Milton gives ills Satan
certain angelic attributes and powers
and pictures hell as possessing an in
ternal order and as being governed by
a hierarchy. Dante shows us 11 hell
that Is orderly externally, but that
is in dire confusion, chaos and disorder
internally. ".Surely," said the lecturer,
"his conception is the more reasonable
of the two and the one most In har
mony with scriptural teachings. "

ANOTHER CAR
IS DYNAMITED
TOOK TLACE IN VERY HEART
OF THE CITY.
Explosive Placed on the Track Near
tho Comer of Spittco Street and
Franklin Avenuo Is Run Over by
a Green Ridge Suburban Car with
Eight Passengers Aboard Flnngo
of the Car Wheel Broken and Win
dows Smashed Thousands Rush
to the Scene Strikers' Statement.
(recti lildge Suburban ear, llfi, was
Rolns down Spruce street last night at
ll.n.-i o'clock, currying eight passen
gers, two of (hem women and nil but
one of them Vt'llkes-narro members of
the Symphony orchestra, who had been
at the Armory, rehearsing for the Nor
diea concert.
Just ns the curve at I'Vnnklin avenuo
was reached, there was a Hash, 11 ter
llllc report, 11 shower of falling glass,
and In a moment the car was hidden in
a cloud of smoko and dust that lilted
the street from one building front to
the oilier.
The theaters were Just lolling out,
and fully live thousand persons, It Is
safe to say, were about in the adjacent
squares. There was a wild rush from
all directions to the seenu of thu r.x
cltement. Motels and cafes were emp
tied of their post-theater patrons, resi
dents of the nelghborhod and lodgers
at the hotels hurried to the street
half dressed to mingle with tho rush
ing crowd and in tlvu minutes the
street at tho point where Hie explosion
occurred was jammed with an excited
throng.
Only the van guard, however, saw
the car. The motormnn tried the ma
chinery by turning on the power, and
finding; that the car would move along
all right, did not wait for the dust and
smoke to clear away, but pulled around
the curve, down Franklin avenue and
up to the company's office, stopping at
the Valley Mouse only long enough to
release the badly frightened passen
gers. IT WAS DYXAAIITK.
It was another case of placing a carl
ridge, probably a stick of dynamite, on
the track. Exactly tin; same damage
resulted as was done by the dynamit
ing on Capouse avenue and in Alay
fleld. The flange was broken from the
wheel that exploded the cartridge and
half the windows of the car were
smashed. In tho (.'apouse avenue ex
plosion a few windows were broken in
adjacent houses. Xone were broken by
lids explosion, but persons who were
in the Arlington hotel, which is on the
side nearest the rail on which the :;
plosion occurred, say that the building
was very perceptibly shaken.
The conductor and motornicti were
seen by a Tribune man as they were
taking the car to the Providence road
barn. They said the explosion lifted
one side of the ear fully a foot from
the. track. None of the passengers
were lujuied in the slightest, they said,
but all became very much excited. The
crew were apparently not very much
alarmed over the occurrence, or if they
had been tho evidences of alarm had
left them, for they were laughing and
joking about as if iL was all 11 jolly
good u flair.
Tho general belief, of course. Is that
the cartridge was placed on the track
by some fool strike sympathizer, but
President 1. J. Shea, of the street car
men's union, does not share this belief.
Me says he thinks it was done by some
of the detectives to keep up the ex
citement and prolong their employment.
Tills was the only event of nole in
connection with the strike yesterday.
The cold weather, the company says,
caused tho patronage of the cars to
exceed even that of the previous day,
and, according to thu company's belief,
a continued spell of unpleasant weather
will break the boycott.

HE HAS IT AND
YET HASN'T IT
ODD PLIGHT OF AN EX-COAL
COMPANY'S TREASURER
Mr. James Possesses n Lot of Money
That No Ono Else Claims, That Ho
Cannot Claim and That Will Like
ly Forever Remain Unclaimed, and
Ho Seeks Vainly to Get Rid of It
to Rellovo Himself of tho Respon
sibility of Caring for It No Legal
Way Ho Can Bo Relieved.
Warren A. James, who was treasurer
of the recently dissolved Morris nnd
Mssox Mutual Coal company, of Old
Forge. Is Iu an odd dilemma.
Jn his custody aro two thousand live
hundred and eighty ownerless dollars,
and there Is no way under the sun that
ho can honestly gel rid of them, or
niako any use of them. lie must be
content to care for them, and bo legally
responsible for their safe keeping.
How he came to be thus conditioned
Is explained In 11 prayer for relief fiom
his burden that ho addressed to the
Lackawanna court, before the dectce
of dissolution of the coal company was
handed down. It reads as follows:

Waricii A. Jani"s,
Judge Edwards puzzled over the peti
tion for a. day without finding any
means of granting the relief, and then
called 011 Judges Kelly and Carpenter.
They weio equally at a loss for u sug
gestion that would help out the unfor
tunate Air. James.
HIS PERSONAL FRIEND.
Judge Edwards in the course of a
that with his brothers of the bench ex
plained that he was personally unxinus
to grant the petitioner's prayer, as Air.
James and his father-in-law, William
Allies, who are two of the leading
Welshmen of the meitropolis, are close
personal friends, and that whenever he
attended the New York Society of St.
David banquets, lie was entertained at
their homes.
Judge Kelly suggested that the money
bu ordered turned over to tho St. Da
vid's society of New York for the use
of the guests, adding that he wouldn't
he busy around St. David's day. Jiulge
Carpenter concurred in Judge Kelly's
suggestion, and also the addition. Tho
president judge thought this a very
good idea, and was willing to concur if
they could only Ihu! some authority to
support such an order. They 'thought
nnd thumbed, but to no avail. There
wasn't 11 thing in any law book to au
thorize the desired order and Judge Ed
wards, after waiting a. day, reluctantly
wrote: "There is no way by which wo
can grant the relief prayed for. Wo
are powerless lo make an order. The
putltion is dismissed."
