Hob an Told tho Members of the Catholic His- . torlcnl Society Last Night That the Reason There Aro Not More Cath olic Works In the Library Is Be cause Catholics Don't Ask for Them The Church nnd the Bible. Other Addresses Made. lit. llov. Ulshop JI. J. llobun, llev. Dr. John J. Loughran and Rev. Dr. J. JIalonc were' tendered a recep tion Inst night by tho Catholic Histor ical Poclety In the Knights of Colum bus club house, and several hundred of the city's most prominent Catho lics attended to do all of them honor nnd to welcome tho two last named clergymen back from their studies In Kuroje. Second Vice President John J. Mur phy presided nnd made a happy intro ductory speech of welcome, in which he extended n hearty greeting to tho visitors. A brief musical programme was rendered, Including a selection by tho Schubert quartette and a soprano solo by Miss Alary Nlland. Rev. Dr. Loughrun made a brief ad dress in which he endeavored to give a passing sketch of the religious side of Home. He mentioned Its hundreds of churches nnd described some of their beauties. Ho was fortunate in seeing Pope Leo XIII a number of limes nnd had several private inter views with him. He described the wonderful personality of the pontiff and told of the spiritual atmosphere which surrounds him nnd which leads even non-Catholics who have seen him to always ever nfterwards think of him with feelings of the deepest reverence. Historical Side of Rome. Rev. Dr. Malone took up the his torical side of Home briefly and told of some of the places of historical Interest which are to be seen there. He told of the recent excavation of the old church of St. Mary, which was used by the Christians of the second century and how the paintings and frescoes which are being uncovered In it prove the ancient origin of many of the dogmas of the Catholic church. Bishop Hoban made im extended plea for a more general knowledge of the history of the Catholic church by Cath olics. He referred to the absence of many important Catholic books from the shelves of the Albright library, and said that these books are not there because there is no demand on the part of Catholics for them. He urged the appointment of a committee to formulate a list of the Catholic books which are to be found in the library and to add to this list the titles of those standard works which are not to be found there. Tills list should be placed In the hands of the members of the society and a demand thus cre ated for the books which it enumer ated. "Only lecently," said the bishop, "I discovered that there are three lives of St. Francis of Assist In the library and thul all three are written by Protestants. Just think of it. Not a Catholic life of one of Catholicism's greatest saints. It is not possible for any well-intentioned Protestant to un derstand the psychology of Catholic saints; to appreciate intelligently their spiritual side. There was no Catholic life of St. Francis in tho library be cause there was no demand on the part of Catholics for a Catholic life. That's your fault and not the fault of the library directors. If space is given on the shelves to a Protestant history of the Reformation space should he given alongside to a Catholic history of the Reformation, but this will not be done until Catholics demand if." Said It Is a Duty. The bishop declared the study of Catholic history to be a duty Incumb ent upon every intelligent Catholic, that they may be prepared to success fully leslst any attack upon the church. In this connection he replied in a most interesting manner to a recent charge made by a Lutheran professor who lectured here that prior to Luther's time the church kept the Bible from the people. The bishop said that intelligent Pro testant scholars know better than tills and do not hesitate to say so. He re counted nt length the names of a num ber of Herman printers, some of whom published as many as sixteen German editions of tho Hlble before Luther was even born, and these, too, were nil J printed and distributed nt the Instiga tion of tho bishops of the church, ho declured, No less than a hundred Latin editions of the Bible were pub lished before Luther's time, and a copy of nn edition published and distributed the year the reformer was born, the bishop said, he has in his own library. "Tlmt man stood up In a pulpit In this city," said the bishop, "and made these statements to an audience which I havo no doubt swallowed down every word, but 1 am glad to say that repre sentative Protestant scholars do not ap prove of such absurd notions. It Is the old, old story that has grown thread b.iro from use, the story that the Cath olic church, has always been the enemy of tho scriptures. On the rontrary, If It hud not been for tho Catholic church iind her Christian monks of the middle ages, wo would have no Bible today," Spirit of Intolerance. The bishop expressed his grutltica tinn ut tho growing spirit of tolerance among Protestants and their growing desire to seek after the real truth re garding Catholic doctrines and dogmas. Ho told a story of a young Boston woman of education whom ho met on tho steamer when he lust crossed the ocean and who dcllned an indulgence ns "a permission to commit sin." Ho expressed satisfaction at the fuct that this altogether erroneous idea was In stantly corrected by a Methodist oler gymuu beforo ho could say a word. Tho bishop announced in conclusion that he galls the first of the year for Hgypt and will visit Rome during the celebration of Popo Leo's twentieth anniversary In March. He hoped to bo ablo to welcome some of the members of tho historical society in the Eternal City at that time. Bauer's orchestra furnished music between the hours of 10.30 nnd 12 o'clock.

Delivered at tho Homo of Hon. and Mrs. Alfred Hand. Hon. and Mrs. Alfred Hand enter tained n. small company ot guests last night at their Hioine on Jefferson ave nue, in honor of Miss Lydla Hayes, who has been at work In New Mexico for a number of years among the Indians and Mexicans. Mies Hayes Is a most attractive woman, who. told a fascinating story, full of dramatic Incidents nnd signifi cant of tho neglect which this country shows toward Its legitimate responsi bilities. She gave a brief review of the history of Now Mexico bIiiuc tho na tives were first enslaved by Spain, tell ing of Coronado's search for gold nnd Kspejo's early visits to the region. She said that the tendency of the Indian in that vicinity had been backward, since his infancy. She spoke lu emphatic protest against our apathy regarding Mormonism and Its encroachments. While we seem to be sleecplng, Mor monism is wide-awake. The Mexican is a manaua person; the Mexican woman surely works hard enough to make up for all his Idleness. Miss Hayes described the homes of the natives of various classes and told of Alamagordo, where had tho Scranton capitalists located more than five years ago they would havo found no church. One was there when they arrived. The religion of Mexico Is not so much Cath olicism as it Is conglomerations of Ignorant superstitions, nnd like all countries once governed by Spain, there is actually no school system worth the mention. She olead for awakened Interest In this land, where there are more church pews than worshippers; for the land and the poor people who are hungry for all things and most for the gospel, and for whom there is such meagre room in church and school. She told a most pathetic story of Ramona, a little girl who was denied room in the mission school and who, sent back to her vil lage, was killed while still a child by a man who Bought her in marriage nnd was refused. The money sent by a rich woman rame too late to rescue the beautiful girl, who had wept so bitterly when she was refused admission to the overcrowded school. In Alburauerque the little boys came from far away, bringing in their arms the pet kid that they have reared to pay for a few inonths in school, so anxious are they for education and so eager are they to learn how to better the condition of their race. At the con clusion of Miss Hayes talk, refresh ments were served and the remainder of the evening was spent in a social way, the influence of the address being the keynote of the conversation.

A TALENTED SINGER. Miss Florence Robertson Made Her Debut Last Night. The auditorium of St. Luke's Parish house wns crowded to overflowing last night with the friends of Miss Flor ence Robertson, of Dunmore, a pupil of Miss Cornelia West freeman, vho made her debut as a concert singer, assisted by Miss Julia C. Allen, of this city, violinist; Harold Stewart Brlggs, of New York, pianist, and Karl Kirk, of New York, 'cellist. Miss Freeman considers Miss Rob ertson to be one of the most promising singers in this part of the state, and the batter's efforts last night compelled not only the admiration but the intel ligent appreciation of the music lovers who heard her. She is a tall, stately young woman with a most individual personality and possesses a voice which, though not of extraordinary range, is nevertheless vibrant and full of tender feeling. Her first selection, a dramatic recitative by Von Weber, was not suited to her temperament, but she sang it exceed ingly well. She was more at ease in tho rendering of Novin's sprightly lit tle song, "The Merry Lark," which she sang with a melodious fluency that was delightful to tho ear, and In the rendering of a beautiful lullaby by Chadwlck. Other songs which she sang were Dell Rlego's "O, Dry Those Tears" and a selection from Schumann, the latter to the accompaniment of both piano and 'cello. There Is not a carelessly controlled note in Miss Robertson's voice, and the peculiar tonal quality of her pianlssimi was very evident in Lisa Lehmaun's "The Night Has a Thousand Eyes." Tho Bohm song, "My All" was ex quisitely Interpreted. Miss Robertson has the exceptionally fine enunciation which characterizes all the work of those trained by Miss Freeman. Mr. Brlggs, who comes from the Power studio in New York, is nn ac complished young musician with a brilliant technique which he displayed to especial advantage in the playing of a Liszt etude. Ills marvelous finger play in the nuances which marked the change of color effect towards the close of the etude provoked much ap plause. Mr. Kirk is a 'cellist of much more than ordinary skill. Miss Allen's ex quisite violin playing is too well known to need comment. An Innova tion was furnished in the printing of the words of all the songs sung in tho programme. ANNOUNCEMENTS. The anniversary of Hiram Marsh will ho celebrated at tho Itescuo mission-Wednesday uvenlng at S o'clock. Tho Ladles' Aid of All Souls' 1'nlversal 1st church will meet Wednesday afternoon with Mrs. W.

SEEMS ITS UP TO MACVEAGH AMICABLE ADJUSTMENT NEGO TIATIONS OFF. Independent Operators Find Little or No Argument Necessary to Con vince tho Coal Road Presidents That a Settlement "Out of Court" Is Out of tho Question Apparently Mr. MacVeagh Took Too Much for Granted or Has Seen Repudiated. Commission Fortified Itself. Whether it was the protest ot the In dependent oporatorn or a realization on tho part of the coal road presidents that a settlement "out of court" of tho- strike controversy was not to tho liking of tho thinking public, tho fact now develops that tho proposed amicable ad justment Is all oft. Both the mathematics and the ethics of the strike dispute are to be threshed out before tho commission. It was thought' all ulong, until yes terday, that all tho big companies were aciiulesclng, nt leaBt, in Wayne Mac Veagh's activities towards nmlcablo ad justment. It now seems us If Mr. Mac Veagh wns nctlng on his own account In every step ho took beyond making arrangements 'for conferences, nt which the parties might agree as to facts con cerning wage and labor statistics. Maybe this Is doing Mr. MacVengh nn injustice, but if It Is the" blame lies with the coal presidents. Hither he has been borne beyond his authority by Ills enthusiasm, or the coal presidents have repudiated him nfter giving the author ity he has been acting under, presum ably. Negotiations Are Off. Bo that as it may, the negotiations, authorized or unauthorized for amic able adjustment, are all off. The committee of independent oper ators, which went to New York to have a conference with tho coal presidents yesterday, returned last night, wreathed In smiles. The afternoon dispatches told in detail of the big companies having coincided in their views. They one and all confirmed these dispatches. Ono of the committee said last night: "We gained our point. Everything we sought was acceded to. It required little or no argument on our part to convince the coal presidents that the hearings before the commission should be proceeded with. They" had about come to this conclusion themselves. "It Is a great victory for us," he con tinued. "Under the amicable adjust ment plan we were to have been en gineered out of court, without being given an opportunity of defending our declaration of May last, that wo were paying all the wages our business war ranted and that we were denied the right to hire and discharge men with out tho consent of the United Mine Workers. AVo want to show this, and we can show It." Developments Anticipated. The commissioners, it would seem, half anticipated yesterday's develop ments. Ostensibly they adjourned to give the parties opportunity to agree on1 figures bearing on the wage ques tion, and for nothing else. Chairman Gray expressed the hope that when the parties came together they might reach an agreement "on nearly all, if not all," of tho points In dispute, but by no word or sign did he indicate that the com mission expected they would do more than that for which the adjournment was specifically granted, namely, the agreement of the parties to figures on wages. To further fortify itself, tho commission, in a statement from Its sub-committee, Saturday afternoon, de clared that no matter what agreement the parties might arrive at the com mission was not bound to accept it for incorporation in its award. If any agreements the parties arrived at met with the full approval of the commis sion, such agreement or agreements would be made part of the commission's award. If the commission did not ap prove, the amicable adjustment efforts were all in vain. What They Expected. It is certain that Mr. Mitchell nnd the other miners' representatives went to Washington expecting to deal with duly accredited representatives of all the big companies. They had been led to believe that Mr. MacVeagh had been authorized to offer as a basis of set tlement a ten per cent, advance In wages, a nine hour day and the other concessions previously told about. Tho fact that they found the appar ently repudiated Mr. MacVeagh the only ono In Washington to deal with them and that he had nothing to offer except his good olflces left them with nothing to do but return to Scranton tho way they came. Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Darrow nnd Mr. Lloyd will he back here today to prepare for a continua tion of their fight before the commis sioners. Fioceedlngs in Book Form.
