MASS BY BISHOP COLTON ON LADY OF LOURDES DAY

Impressive Celebration Planned for Patronal Feast of

Many Pre-Lenten Entertainments Arranged-More Priests Are Transferred.

The Right Rev. Charles H. Colton, D.D., Bishop of Bufalo, will officiate at the pontifical mass at the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes, Broadway and Aberdeen street, on Sunday, February 12, when the patronal feast of the church will be celebrated. The rector, the Rev. John McCullough, S.P.M., has been at work for weeks preparing for this annual event, which is always one of the most imposing and impressive services seen in the city during the entire year.

The Church of Our Lady of Lourdes is a shrine to which the faithful flock from all over the borough, and on these special occasions the attendance is always so large that the vast edifice is not big enough to hold the crowds. The beauty of the interior of the church has been frequently commented upon and

In St. Ambrose's will wait this return with anxiety, and he will be sure of a warm welcome when he comes back with his health restored.

The Church of Our Lady of Mercy, in Schermerhorn street, of which the Rev. James J. McAteer is rector, will be benefited by a monster euchre and reception which is to be held in the Pouch Gallery, Clinton avenue, on the evening of Monday, February 27. The arrangements are in the hands of the Rev. John A. Bohag, Father McAteer's able assistant, who is being helped by a very efficient committee, which has as its object the making of this event by far the most successful and enjoyable one in the history of church euchres in Brooklyn. A feature will be a souvenir book, which will be one of the finest things of its kind ever gotten out. There will be valuable souvenirs for players and non-players, and a special door souvenir of gold. The parishioners are looking forward to a rare treat on the evening of the euchre, which will be followed by a long dancing programme.

The Rev. Vincent P. Delaney, who for the past two years has been an assistant to the Rev. William B. Farrell, at the Church of Sts. Peter and Paul, in the Eastern District, has been transferred by the dioesen authorities and made associate rector of St. Matthew's Church, on Eastern Parkway.

The Rev. Edward J. Hoare, who has been attached to St. Agnes' Church for some time past, has been sent to the Church of Our Lady of Good Counsel. Father Hoare made his theological studies in Rome, and is one of the ablest men among the younger priests of the diocese.

It is more than likely that Bishop McDonnell and Mgrs. McCarthy and McNamee, who sailed for Jamaica last Saturday, will be present at the dedication of the new cathedral, in Kingston, tobeing weighed in the balance. The present movement in France is a prophecy of what will soon take place in every civilized country of the globe, as enlightened liberty shall mount the throne and break the fetters as fast as they are forged by a church that would enslave the mind and soul of man. The old hardshell Baptist church has also become a castaway, because it refused to carry out the great commission. Let us missionary Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, and all others take warning. No man knoweth what a day may bring forth.

"Unless we are more faithful to our sublime mission than we have been, God will remove our candlesticks from their places, and will raise up others to be the torch-bearers of the world. Already the Lord is rebuking us through the Salvation Army and the Volunteers of America, because we have too often turned a deaf ear to the lowly and the outcast."

NORTH PARK SLOPE GROUP.

Impressive services were held in Grace Methodist Church, in which the North Park Slopes Group meetings are being conducted, last night. A large chorus, under the direction of B. H. MacCurdy, sings at each service. The attendance was double that of the first evening. The Rev. Dr. H. Grattan Dockrell of Boston is the preacher. His sermon last night on Job was a clear and strong presentation of thoughts suggested by the patriarch's trials and unbroken trust in God. An interesting meeting of personal workers was held after the service. The Rev. M. M. Ammunson of the Sterling Place Church of Christ read the Scripture leswhich has a world-wide reputation for high quality-a delicious flavor given by the scientific blending, and an unquestioned value as a pure and healthful beverage, supplying the body with some of the most essential elements of nutrition.

the famous grotto, a reproduction on a reduced scale of the Grotto of Lourdes. In France, has done much to enhance the favor in which the church is held as a place of special devotion. The musical programme this year will be unusually elaborate, and a distinguished pulpit orator will preach the sermon.

The nineteenth annual concert and lecture in aid of the Monastery of the Precious Blood, at the Montauk Theater on Sunday evening, March 12, promises to be as brilliant a success as any that has taken place during the past eighteen years. The announcement that the lecturer will be the Very Rev. Alexander P. Doyle, C.S.R., rector of the Apostolic Mission House, Washington, D. C., has been received with great favor. He has many friends in Brooklyn who will be glad to welcome him; and many who feel an interest in the work in which he is engaged—training priests for the giving of missions to Catholics and non-Catholics—will be pleased to hear him on a question in the discussion of which his experience as a missionary priest, particularly among non-Catholics, gives to him a broad view of the subject of his lecture, "Facing the Twentieth Century." Father Doyle is noted as an able speaker, and it is as a great favor that he comes to Brooklyn to lecture in aid of the Sisters of the Precious Blood, in whom he has always had a kindly, fatherly interest.

Miss Marie Kleckhoefer, who for several years past has managed the music, will do so on the coming occasion. She has secured Miss Gertrude Finsten, violinist; John Finnegan, tenor of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Manhattan; Miss Loretta De Lone, harp soloist of the Pittsburg and Minneapolis Orchestra, and Miss Bernardine Kleckhoefer, as accompanist.

St. Bernard's Church, Hicks and Rapalyea streets, will benefit by an entertainment and reception on Tuesday evening, February 121 (Washington's Birthday eve), at the Kings County Palaces, 120 Schermerhorn street. The entertainment is under the auspices of the choir of the church. The programme will open with a first-past minstrel show, followed by an original specialty, a novel feature never before attempted by any amateur produc-

morrow. The structure, which replaces the one destroyed a few years ago, is an imposing building standing upon an eminence, and is one of the first objects that strike the eye of the traveler as he approaches Kingston on the steamer.

The Holy Name Society of the Church of the Sacred Heart, of which the Rev. John L. Nash, LL.D., is rector, is preparing to give its annual suchra on Monday evening, February 27. The committee and chairman are working hard to make the event surpass its predecessors, and it is hoped that a large sum will be raised for the renovation of the rectory.

The Rev. Joseph D. McKenna, recently appointed inspector of schools; has entered upon the duties of his new office. Father McKenna has a big task before him, as he will practically have to inaugurate the work, the schools having had no inspector since the resignation of the Rev. Thomas J. O'Brien.

KISMET TEMPLE MEETING.

First Ceremonial Gathering of Shriners Largely Attended.

The first ceremonial meeting of Kismet Temple was held at the Mosque, Herklimer street and Nostrand avenue, on Tuesday evening, January 31. There was a very large attendance. At the last meeting the election of officers took place, and Noble Henry Lange was elected potentate, but on account of illness he was unable to be present and so the installation of the officers was postponed until the first session in the new year. III. William Bamber opened the session and then called III. Joseph H. Cummin to take charge and install the officers. III. Noble Cummin then formally installed the officers of Kismet for 1911 and placed the gavel in the hands of III. Henry Lange, who received a hearty greeting from all the nobles present. The business being disposed of, the Arab patrol gave an exhibition drill, going through new manoeuvers, and ending with the word Kismet made with climetars, showing their proficiency and the result of the training they had undergone. The chief, Noble John D. Stem, received many

son. The Rev. G. O. Griffith of Sixth Avenue Baptist Church and the Rev. Frederick F. Shannon of Grace Church also took part in the service? A union service will be held in Grace Church on Sunday evening, when Dr. Dockrell will preach.

THE PROSPECT SLOPE GROUP.

The Chapman-Alexander meetings in the middle group of the Prospect Slope Section have opened auspiciously. The co-operating churches are the Sixth Avenue M. E., the Rev. E. C. Tullar, pastor; the Prospect Heights, Presbyterian, the Rev. Dr. E. D. Bailey, pastor, and the Greenwood Baptist. The meeting place is in the latter church. The chairman of the group is the Rev. Joel B. Slocum, pastor of the entertaining church. The parish which this three-fold organization is responsible is Third street to Eleventh street, the Canal to Prospect Park West. The group is finely organized and all the various committees are in full swing. Evangelist Gale and Singer W. H. Collison seem especially adapted to this important portion of the Park Slope.

Mr. Gale, on the opening night, had for his theme "Give God a Chance." That will be the slogan of the campaign, so far as the middle group of Park Slope is concerned. This was followed last evening by a masterly sermon on "Prayer." It was an appeal to believe what God has said about prayer and to act upon that belief.

Professor Lowe has been giving some interesting and instructive illustrated addresses to the young people at 4 o'clock. The concluding one will be given to-morrow afternoon at the conclusion of the Bible School, in the Greenwood Church. The women of this group are organized for work. The committee on women's meetings is as follows; Mrs. Charles A. Wilson, chairman; Mrs. Frederick Bruckbauer and Miss Adelaide Dieckman. One successful meeting has already been held in the home of Mrs. Bruckbauer. The next meeting for women will be held in the Sixth Avenue M. E. Church on Tuesday afternoon at 3:30.

The Monday night meeting at 9:30 will be addressed by Mr. Asher of the Chapman-Alexander mission.

"MAN'S GREATEST PROBLEM."

ITALIAN SERVICES.

Italian evangelistic services will begin to-morrow morning at 10:30 o'clock in the Franklin Avenue Italian Presbyterian Church, near Myrtle avenue. The Rev. Eduardo Taglialatela of Rome, director of the Methodist Sunday schools In Italy, will preach the sermon. He will also preach at 5 P.M. in the Atlantic Avenue Mission, 2095 Atlantic avenue, near Rockaway avenue. Evangelistic meetings will be held every evening at both places. The Rev. Stefano L. Tosta is the pastor. Italian services, all in connection with the Chapman-Alexander campaign, will also be held every evening at the Italian Baptist Church, 14 Jackson street, and at the York Street M. E. Church, York and Gold street. Italian ministers of Brooklyn and New York have pledged to speak at these meetings.

As always, when Pastor Russell speaks, seats will be free and no collection will be lifted.

Those who have seen the windows have pronounced them beautiful examples of stained glass art. They were made in Europe, and were expected to arrive months ago.

These windows will be unveiled by the roctor and dedicated in memory of Caroline W. L. Heydenreich, Alico Bradley, Mauro Cunningham, Slimey and Eleanor

The monthly euchre and bridge for the benefit of St. Vincent's Guild, will be held in the parlors of St. Vincent's Home on Tuesday, February 7, at 2:30 P.M. Members and their friends are earnestly requested to attend. There will be souvenirs for non-players.

The cornerstone of the new Church of St. Mary at Bay Side, of which the Rev. Garvase Kubec is rector, will be laid tomorrow afternoon, with appropriate and impressive ceremonies.

The Rev. Thomas S. Duhigg, rector of the Church of St. John, the Evangelist, returned a few days ago from Atlantic City, where he made a short stay with his old Roman fellow student, the Rev. Thomas P. McLoughlin, rector of the Church of the Blessed Sacrament, New Rochelle, N. Y.

The annual mass for deceased members of the Holy Name Society will be celebrated at St. John's Chapel, Monday, February 13 (Lincoln's Birthday). Printed notices have been sent to all members requesting them to be present.

The Rev. John L. Belford, rector of the Church of the Nativity, will lecture before Brooklyn Council, No. 60, Knights of Columbus, at their rooms in Prospect Hall to-morrow evening. The subject of Father Belford's discourse will be "Why I Am a Catholic."

The new superior general of the Sisters of St. Joseph, of which there are many in the Brooklyn diocese, is Mother M. Bonaventure, superior of St. John's Orphan Asylum, Philadelphia. She succeeds the late Mother Mary Clement.

Plans are being perfected for the collection of the building fund for the new Church of the Immaculate Heart of Mary at Windsor Terrace, of which the Rev. M. J. Tlerney is rector. The frame structure, which was built 16 years ago by the Rev. James J. McAteer, the founder of the parish, is inadequate to meet the needs of the fast-growing congregation, and the building of a new edifice has become a necessity. The new church will occupy

congratulations on the skillful manner in which the patrol passed through the intricate evolutions, and the exhibition was pronounced the best the patrol had ever given. Ill. Noble William Bamber generously created the new batch of Nobles, as Noble Lange has not fully recovered from his severe illness. Many new sights were seen by the neophytes in their journey over the hot sands and even the nobles who accompanied the caravan were surprised at the new diversion- and startling effects produced during their journey. Inquiries were made as to whether it was a Fourth of July celebration or February 22. After the ceremonies an entertainment was given which was enjoyed by all present. The feast of one of the most celebrated of the Arabs followed and then the nobles wended their way to their happy homes. The Arab patrol will give a minstrel show, followed by a dance at the Mosque on the evenings of February 21 and 22. The patrol intend to go to Rochester in July next, when the Imperial Council meets there and will take part in the competitive drill. They feel quite sure that they will bring home one of the prizes of the occasion. On the return trip they will make a detour by way of the Rapids and the Thousand Isles.

DO YOU KNOW

All of the meetings in the several groups in the Chapman-Alexander evangelistic campaign were even better attended last night than they were on Thursday evening, when they began.

There was a much larger attendance at the services of the Heights Group, in the Reformed Church on the Heights. At the meeting of the Ridgewood Group, in the Knickerbocker M. E. Church, about thirty confessed Christ. Reports from the Bushwick Group indicate that there is an awakening spirit among the people of the neighborhood. The same is also true of the Stuyvesant Central Group, in the Janes M. E. Church, and the Carroll Park Group, in the Strong. Place Baptist Church.

Special India Paper Edition

This is indeed the era of CONSERVATION—of SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT; in every field the world's keenest minds are at work to save time, energy, resources—to promote facility and convenience. For the first time this principle is now applied in the mechanical production of an important American work of reference; the result is shown in the photographic reproduction here printed; this result is accomplished simply by employing English-finish Bible paper (known as India paper) instead of the ordinary paper generally used, and by substituting flexible covers for stiff and heavy boards. Such is the transformation now effected in the Special Edition for 1911 of that great twenty-volume library of universal reference,

What the Americana Is

A comparison of the two volumes affords a surprise; you find that each contains nearly 1,000 pages; you note that without sacrificing legibility or durability there is a great saving in shelf-space with unusual facility and convenience in handling, making reference so quick and easy as to be a pleasure and not a task. The India-paper feature and the flexible covers (in Buckram and Full-Morocco) are decided economic improvements. The volumes are as easy to handle as a magazine; one of them may be lifted between thumb and finger, even by a child; the full twenty-volume set occupies so little space that the work may be kept on a small desk or library table-at your elbow for quick service—resulting in an increased usefulness, especially to youthful knowledge seekers who are not inclined to make a trip to distant shelf or bookcase to make sure about things that come up in reading or study.

At Symphony Hall, Boston, on Sunday afternoon and evening, there were two great gatherings of representatives of the 900,000 Catholics of the Archdiocese of Boston, attending the first Catholic Congress held under the direction of Archbishop O'Connell. In the evening the crowd was so great that Horticultural Hall was secured for the overflow, and hundreds were even then turned away. Resolutions were adopted supporting the independence of the Holy See; expressing sympathy with the Catholics in France; on freedom of education; favoring the complete abolition of divorce laws; for the censorship of theaters; for the suppression of the publication of the details of criminal and divorce trials; against the desecration of Sunday, and in sympathy with labor. Addresses were made by the Archbishop and by priests and laymen of prominence:

The children of St. Malachy'a Ocean Home at Rockaway Beach are still praying hard for the recovery of their chaplain, Father Koeberle, who is seriously ill at St. Catherine's Hospital, with an even chance of recovery.

He entered into all the games of the youngsters, shooting marbles with the boys and helping to turn the skipping rope for the tiny girls, and they all feel as sheep must when the shepherd is far away.

PARLIAMENT IS OPENED

BY KING AND QUEEN

Big Crowds Gather in Street Through Which Corgus Procession Passed.

OVATION FOR THE SOVEREIGN.

Brilliant Scene in House of Lords Where Brief and Sorless Speech Is Read From the Throne.

London, February 6—King George and Queen Mary, for the first time in their reign, proceeded in state this afternoon from Buckingham Palace to Westminster, where His Majesty read the speech formally opening Parliament from the throne in the House of Lords. During the ceremony the Queen was seated at the side of the King.

Though the day was dark and chilly an immense throng was gathered in St. James Park and in Whitehall, where the gorgeous procession passed. Other thousands surrounded the Parliamentary buildings.

Their Majesties rode in the gilded state coach drawn by eight cream-colored horses caparisoned in gold and purof the salaries in light! All the others, according to our Protestant creeds, Calvinist and Arminian, have gone down to eternal torture. From this standpoint it is that Dr. Chapman and Mr. Alexander are the heroes of the hour, saving a few more whom God would have otherwise neglected, or, as some might say, saving them in spite of Divine forcordination to the contrary.

Although no actual day has been fixed for the work to be started, it is understood it will be begun within the coming two weeks. It is the idea to have the work of the double-tracking completed by June 1, when steps will be taken to electrify the Oyster Bay Branch.

EXTRA SESSION TALK STRONGER IN CAPITAL

Canada Does Not Look Upon Reciprocity Agreement as a Standing Offer.

EARLY ACTION IS NECESSARY.

Belief That President Practically Has Made Up His Mind to Call Extra Session.

Eagle Bureau. 608 Fourteenth Street. Washington, February 6-There was more extra session talk about the White House to-day than at any time since the Canadian trade agreement was submitted to Congress. While the President is somewhat sensitive about the public getting the impression that he is talking extra session with the expectation that such talk will have an influence on the present Congress, it is now well understood that he practically has made up his mind to call an extra session the later part of March if the present House of Representatives shall ratify the agreement and the Senate shall fail to act on it.

PASTOR RUSSELL'S VIEWS

Evangelistic and Missionary Efforts Discounted.

WHY GOD CARES FOR MAN

MISCELLANEOUS.

Ibut what say the Scriptures? Does the Bible substantiate such theories?

Nay, nay! In harmony with our text, the entire Bible reveals to us a God as infinite in His Wisdom and Power as in His Justice and Love. Our text tells us that He is mindful of His creatures—Humanity. He was mindful in the very beginning when he created man and foreknew his fall. Away back there He foretold that "the Seed of the woman should ultimately bruise the Serpent's head." Away back there He indicated His Divine purpose, in due time, to redeem man from destruction (not from eternal torment, for none were sentenced to torment).

The skins which covered the nakedness of our first parents cost the lives of animals; and thus God typically prophesied "better sacrifices" for the perfect covering of man's sin and shame. In God's dealings with the nation of Israel, He gave numerous types foreshadowing the later blessings. Following "the better sacrifices" of the anatypical Atonement Day—blessing all the families of the earth.

God was mindful of man's interests all that time (for over forty-two centuries), even though, during that long period, nothing was actually accomplished. The salvation was purpose, was planned, was assured, but must be waited for until God's due time.

Reconcellation by "Better Sacrifices."

When Jesus appeared the world was still in sin—even the one little nation of Israel was still under Divine condemnation because of sin—because their typical sacrifices were insufficient and merely foreshadows of "the better sacrifices," which God was mindful later to bring to pass.

Those "better sacrifices" are not yet com-

pls. The King wore a field marshal's uniform.

As the royal party passed the cheering was unusually hearty, as it was the first opportunity that the populace had had to express its gratification over the vindication of King George in the recent libel suit against Edward Myllus.

An escort of Life Guards preceded the state coach, and Yeomen, of the Guard followed. Five state carriages, each drawn by six horses, were occupied by officers of the court and gentlemen and ladies in waiting. Regiments of the Guards lined the route, and as the procession moved on, the artillery regiments fired the royal salute. The crown and sword of state were borne from St. James Palace to Parliament in the royal carriage under the escort of the Guards. Officers of state and officials of Parliament received Their Majesties at the royal entrance beneath the Victoria Tower.

The House of Lords was packed when the imperial procession entered from the robing room at 2:30 o'clock. The Colonies for the first time were represented by the Colonial Agents General. Diplomate occupied places in the royal gallery. The women wore mauve in half mourning.

Speaker Lowther and as many of the members of the House of Commons as could, crowded the floor and stood in the aisles. All the officers of state in regalia, including Earl Carrington, Lord Great Chamberlain, with quarries and pursuivants, bearing the emblems of office, escorted Their Majesties into the chamber and were grouped around the throne during the ceremony.

The King's speech from the throne was brief and colorless. It opened with a fullal reference to the death of King Edward. The only references to foreign affairs were a mention of the fact that negotiations had been opened with Japan for a new commercial treaty, and an allusion to the friction in Persia over the disturbance of British trade routes. A casual expression of interest in the approaching, imperial conference was made.

Only two proposed legislative measures were mentioned specifically. "Proposals," said the King, "will be submitted without delay for settling the

supplies groceries and provisions to the Italian laborers. It is conducted by A. M, De Leo of Brooklyn, who had as manager Antonio Zanziella.

Last Monday Justice J. F Kelly took the deposition of an attendant at the hospital, who had been arraigned before him fordrunkenness, in which he swore that he had purchased whisky at De Leo's store. The justice forwarded the paper, together with similar affidavits, to District Attorney Furman.

An order of search and seizure was immediately issued by County Judge Griffing, and the raid was made on Friday night. A large quantity of liquor was seized, and Manager Zanzielle, together with two other Italians, John Grinaldi and Antonio Cochlara, were taken into custody.

Another Italian: Mike Patsy, who was connected with the place, is in Brooklyn, but a warrant has been issued for his arrest. Zanziella and Grinaldi were released each on $1,000 bail, but Cochlara is still in jail.

It is claimed that the place was not only selling liquor without a license, but it was in further violation of the law in selling liquor on the grounds of the State Hospital.

The matter of the seizure will come up before Judge Griffing at liverhead, and the three Italians will be arraigned before Justice Kelly, probably on Wednesday.

a typical storm sky without a glint of blue to relieve its leaden gray and soon the roofs of Brooklyn were bonneted with white. There wasn't much wind, but the snow fell with a consistent, steady force which boded ill for traffic on the surface lines before many hours had passed.

At noon the official temperature stood at 20, which was a slight increase. It was said then that the storm was moving eastward, that the storm center had been over Illinois at 8 o'clock and that the snow fall would increase within the next thirty-six hours. According to the Weather Bureau, the snow will pelt us even harder before night sets in.

Forecaster Scarr said this morning: "The storm which is traveling this way from the westward is central over Ohio and the Mississippi Valley just now. It is snowing north and south of us. The storm has made a ring around us, and its nearest points of approach to this city are at Pittsburg, Erie and Buffalo. The ring is gradually lessening in circumference, and is due to close in on us this afternoon. It may be a very heavy fall or it may be a storm of only moderate force. Four or five inches of snow cover the ground in Ohio, and it is still snowing there.

"Do you think the storm will break all records for the winter?" the prophet was asked.

"That is hard to tell. We had 9 inches in December. The storm may last over until to-morrow, but to-morrow it should clear up. Indications are that the temperature will rise this afternoon, but it probably will be colder Tuesday."

While Mr. Scarr was saying this, dispatches flashed here over wires sagging under a dead weight of wet snow telling of Chicago being in difficulties. A widespread white counterpane covered the Windy City, interfering with the traffic on the steam and elevated railroads and sadly handicapping surface lines. Telegraph wires were expected to fall at any time because of the sleet, and conditions were not improving. The weather was growing steadily colder, and threatened to bring about much suffering. At Davenport, Ia., 8 inches of snow fell.

The snow fall in Pittsburg is the heaviest of the winter, and street car service to many suburbs was suspended. All rail traffic was hampered.

place. She was born in Liverpool, England, in 1842, daughter of Michael Devereux, had resided in Brooklyn sixty years, and leaves a son, George W. Cook.

Lieutenant Hugo F. Engels.

Lleutenant Hugo F. Engels, official interpreter in the negotiations of the treaty of Portsmouth, died yesterday at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston. He was born in Silesia, Germany about 73 years ago, and fought in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71, receiving a commission.

Mary Stuart Johnston.

Mary Stuart, wife of George B. Johnstone, died suddenly at her home, 52 Stratford road, Saturday, of heart disease. She was a native of Glasgow, Scotland, and leaves a son, William J., and two daughters, Mrs. Margaret Povey and Mrs. Elizabeth Jones.

George Higginson.

George Higginson, a member of Vimerity Council, R. A., and St. Malachi's Council, C. B. L., died yesterday at his home, 52 Jerome street. He leaves a widow, Anna A. A requiem mass will be offered at the Church of St. Joseph, Newark, N. J., to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock.

James P. Beattie.

James P. Beattie, an employee of the Tax Department of this borough, died yesterday at his home, 231 Spencer street, of stomach trouble. He was born at 92 Washington street in 1861, and had always lived in Brooklyn. He was a member of St. Patrick's Catholic Church, Kent and Willoughby avenues, where a requiem mass will be offered Wednesday morning at 9:30 o'clock.

George Henry Green.

George Henry, eldest son of the late Thomas and Mary Green, died to-day at Seney Hospital of a complication of diseases. He was born in Manhattan and was a graduate of Public School No. 2, and of St. Francis Xavier's College, Manhattan. For many years he was a clerk in the Kings County Register's office. His father, who died about eighteen months ago, was a leading builder and one of the pioneers in the development of the Park Slope.

Ellen Fitzgerald.

Ellen, Moynahan, widow of Maurice Fitzgerald, died on Saturday at her home.

Early action is necessary, because Canada is not willing to have the agreement hold over until next winter. The Dominion officials have let the officials here know within the last few days that Canada does not look upon the agreement submitted as a standing offer. This situation undoubtedly is influencing the President to make up his mind in favor of an extra session in case ratification is not obtained at the present session.

The prospect is that the Democratic members of the House will, at their caucus to-night, decide to support the agreement. If they do take this action the ratification of the agreement by the House the latter part of this week or the first of next will be assured.

So far the President has not been able to make any headway with the Senate. The agreement is now pigeonholed in the Committee on Foreign Relations, and whether it will be turned over by that body to the Committee on Finance, which must consider it, remains to be seen. Some of the opponents of the agreement are urging the Foreign Relations Committee to hold on to it, and thus prevent even committee action at this session. The President's inquiries have convinced him that the agreement would go through the Senate if a vote could be reached.

While the insurgent Republican Senators, with the exception of Senator Beveridge, probably would vote against the agreement on the ground that it favors the beef trust, the steel trust and the rubber trust, the real opposition comes from the old standpatters. The President is greatly disappointed over the attitude of such insurgent Senators as La Follette, Cummins and Bristow. He had supposed they would be heartily in favor of the agreement.

Three important subjects will hold the attention of Congress this week. In the House the apportionment bill will be the leading issue. The advocates of a House of 391 and the advocates of a membership of 433 are each claiming a majority. The Republicans are showing no disposition to abide by the decision of their caucus last week, which fixed 391 as the membership to be supported, all of which goes to show that there is no longer any Republican leadership in the House.

In the Senate, the Lorimer case and

Brooklyn Academy of Music was crowded yesterday afternoon to hear Pastor Russell on God's mindfulness of man from the test, "What Is Man, That Thou Art Mindful of Him?" (Psalm vill, 4.) The large audience listened with intense interest, so that a pindrop could have been heard. The speaker said:—

For some weeks our city will be in the throes of a "Revival of Religion." Hundreds of ministers have placed themselves and their congregations under the leadership of the Rev. Dr. Chapman and Mr. Alexander, the famous singer, for the purpose of reviving religion; for the purpose of rescuing human souls from eternal torment, as the proposition is generally understood. Business men have subscribed large sums of money for this noble work of rescue, reasoning that if thousands of dollars are spent in fire-fighting apparatus for the protection of human life for a few years, the services of Messrs. Chapman and Alexander will be cheap if they carry away twenty-five thousand dollars for a month's work, provided the results show a goodly number rescued from eternal torment.

Sympathizes With the Open-Handed Business Man.

We sympathize with some of these large-hearted and open-handed business men who give their money for so laudable an object. Yet we cannot-think that many, nay not even a majority, of those who contributed-this sum have done so conscientiously. We cannot think that one-half of them believe in the teaching of eternal torture, nor can we think that more than one-tenth of them believe that a practical conversion is signified by a response to an invitation which implies a preference for heavenly bliss rather than for eternal anguish. However, it is for those who pay the money to exercise their own consciences in this matter, and it is none of our business what they decide.

We sympathize also with the hundreds of pastors of this city who have joined in this movement, which they hope will increase their congregations and church revenues, but these pastors know in reality that the Bible does

plotted, though nearly so, we, believe. They consist of "the Man Christ Jesus who gave himself a Ransom for all," and also for the faithful few whom he has accepted as His disciples and who are walking in His steps, "presenting their bodies living sacrifices, holy and acceptable to God," through their redeemer (Rom. xli. 1).

God is still mindful of humanity. He has not forgotten his responsibilities as a Creator. The theory that God shirks His responsibility and allows the ninety thousand who die daily to drop into eternal torment because of carelessness or indifference on our part is not true—is not Scriptural.

God affirms His own responsibility for every feature of his Plan. He declares, "My word that is gone forth out of my mouth shall not return unto me void; it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it" (Isaiah lv., 11). Hence we should understand that God sent no message to convert the world during the first forty-one hundred and fifty years after Adam's creation because he did not will the world to be converted then. He had no message for the world. His time had not come. St. Paul refers to this, saying, "The times of that ignorance God winked at" (took no notice of). But now, since the death of Jesus, the Just for the unjust, and the opening up of possibilities for a future life through a resurrection, God commands all men everywhere to repent. And all who become disciples of Jesus are privileged to be ambassadors for God, to convey to all who have the hearing car a message of God's mercy—to blind up the broken-hearted, to declare the acceptable year and the opening of the prison doors.

But the work in the present time is restricted. Not all could possibly be blessed now—and the elect must have an ear to hear and must be "drawn of the Father" and must walk in the Master's footsteps, and thus become copies of God's dear Son. This is the only work thus far, and it is not to the world, but to the few who have the hearing ear and leave the world to become followers of Jesus.

"The High Calling in Christ."

The Bible declares that now God is sending forth a "high calling in Christ." Those called during this Gospel Age are called to walk in Jesus' footsteps as saints, "presenting their bodies living sacrifices," suffering with their Master and for IIs cause. The promise to all these is that, if faithful, they shall share with the great Redeemer IIs Messianic Throne which is yet to bless the world. To this, Bride-class the Redeemer will be the

relations between the two houses of Parliament, with the object of securing an effective, working constitution." Legislation would also be had. His Majesty said, to provide insurance against sickness and unemployment.

Offensive Reference to Catholic Church Omitted in Declaration

From the paucity of the legislative proposals it is evident that the government has determined to allow nothing beyond necessary financial measures, to interfere with action on the veto bill. The Suffragettes already are threatening a renewal of their activities because they were not mentioned in the speech, and the Laborites are much put out for the reason that it contained no promise of a bill dealing with the hated Osborne judgment.

of Faith.

In making the declaration of faith King George used for the first time the amended form adopted at the last session of Parliament and which omits the traditional reference to the Catholic Church, which was offensive to the adherents of that faith.

That the Nationalists are satisfied with their position was indicated, when at a meeting hold late in the day, they decided not to introduce any private bills during the present session.

Former Brooklyn Society Leader Becomes Wife of Englishman.

Her First Husband, Who Died 1899, Left Her Over a Million Dollars.

Brooklyn society in particular as well as American society in general will no doubt be more interested than surprised in the cable news of the day from London that Mrs. Samuel Sloan Chauncey has married a wealthy Englishman, Brigadier General the Hon. Geoff Edward Dingham. The ceremony was quietly solemnized on Saturday, in the presence of a few of their closest friends, among whom were the Grand Duke Michael and his daughter, the Duke of Rutland and Lord and Lady Savile.

Mrs. Chauncey was known at the time of her husband's death, In 1899, as the "most beautiful widow in the world." She was, before her first marriage, Miss Alice Louise Carr, daughter of a politician in moderate circumstances of Leavenworth Ind. Upon the death of her father, the beauty and grace of the young woman attracted the notice of Dr. George Griffith, a leading physician of Louisville, Ky., who invited her to visit his daughter and she was introduced by them into Kentucky society. While on a visit with them to Florida, Miss Carr met Mr. Chauncey, a wealthy resident of the Heights in Brooklyn. They were married In 1894, and took up their residence at 146 Joralemon street.

349 Forty-ninth street. She was born in County Kerry, Ireland, lived in South Brooklyn forty-five years, and was a member of St. Michael's Roman Catholic Church on Fourth avenue. She leaves three sons, John, Maurice and Timothy, and two daughters, Mary and Kathryn.
