Noted Speakers and Guests from of Parts of State The sixth annual Lincoln Day ban- quet of the Cathode Lilli), held at that organization's cozy quarters. in West avenue. last night. proved another magnificent success. worthy of the club. The toasts were all by prominent men and nbounded with wit combined with more serious thoughts presented in an entertaining manner. The pool and billiard room on the lower floor of the club hoiise was utilized for the ban- quet bail and the members of the club and their numerous guests met a pret— ty and inviting scene. The two long tables running lengthwise of the room and the two more across it, were filled with many delicacies. The filll menu was as follows: Blue Points on Half Shell Crackers. Rolls Beechnut Ham. Roast Spring Lamb. Currant Jelly. Roman Punch. Ox Tongue. Chicken Salad. Olives. Celery. linked Litclifleld Pig. Apple Sauce Assorted Fruit Cake Fancy Dalntiea. Lady Fingers. Nuts. Macaroons. Raisins. Chocolates and Son Boris. Mocha. The supper was furnished by Caterer Frederick A. Lane of South Norwalk, whose ability in this line is well- known. It was served under his direc tion by an efficient corps of assistants, and he received many compliments on the excellence of the dishes. Everywhere were decorations of the national colors, from all of the walls large American flags were hanging in graceful f0ida. Farther decorations of red, white and blue were attached to the ceiling, mantles and other portions of the lower floor. 1 he large mantle in the banquet hall was graced witn n largo-picture of the immortal Lincoln. the frame being prettily surrounded with the American emblem While the club members and their guests were or riving and during the banquet. the Twin City Mandolin Club composed of John J. and Frederick Powell, William Summers and George Williams gave a concert which was much enjoyed by the assemblage. It was about 8:45 when Rev. James H. O‘Donnell said a few words of grace as a fitting, prelude to the evening's enjoyment. When the cafe nolr and the cigars appeared, Mayor John J. Cuvanagh, toaatmaster of the occasion. arose and opened his remarks by allud- ing to the fact that the banqueters met . there to celebrate a great national bol- , itlay. and to pay tribute to a great ‘ martyr. He then welcomed those pres- ent to the festive board. and spoke of the fact that the Catholic Club had been in existence six years. and in this manner was starting very auspiciously onits seventh year. The club. he said. had just elected Dr. William J. Tracey to its presidency for the sixth time. and despite his numerous returns to the of» lice he was sure there was no feeling of imperialism. Mayor Cavanagh also paid a tribute to, the efficient treasurer. William Howard. and to the members of the club in general. The toastmaster then introduced the Rev. James H. O'Donnell. whose toast was entitled' ’lhe Church; Her Rela- tions With the Public. I Father 0’ Don- nell's scholarly address was listened to with the keenest interest. He con- sidered it eminently fitting that the memory of Abraham Lincoln be linked with the Catholic Church for «be church's principles are the same as those of the great martyr. namely, per- sonal liberty. Then, speaking most directly on the subject, Father 0 Donnell said. "The Catholic Church stands for law and the preservation of order. if the church is not interfered with in the Philippine islands, if unobstructed it goes without saying that she will bring order out f chaos." (Applause) No nation, he aid. can exist without mo- rality and religion. History repeats itself. The pagans disregarded the laws of right and morality with the re- sultant doath of those nations.

R. Wood Dalivora an Admirablo Ad- dreaa Saforo a Large Audience at Congregational Church. , Samuel Richards Weed takes the ‘illllfllli‘. view that the Passion Play of libel-ammcrgliil has lost the beautiful simplicity which marked it for years' and has degenerated into a more mon- ey making enterprise. He. cells It "A Discordant Note." Mr. Weed deliv- cred a lecture on the Passion Play given in 1900, at which he was prea~ out, before a large audience at the South Norwalk Congregational Church last evening. Among other things Mi. Weed said that the play has become a mere theatrical device. given over to money making and lacking the majes- ty with which it was formerly endow- ed. it strikes Ii discordant note in the spectators‘ mind. The so called religious fervor of the play and of tho audience is due to acting of a very mediocre quality. The actors do not appreciate the parts that they play. The music is exocrable and the scenic effects are very poor indeed. This state of affairs Mr. Weed attri- blues to the fact that within the past few weeks. the town of Oberammer- gun has been connected with the city of Munich by an electric railroad and the people of the village have become contaminated by trim to the city as well as by the hosts of city people who now flock to the village. The villag- ers have become commercialized and now conduct the play merely as ll money-making enterprise and not for lessons which it formerly taught. The church was well filled with an interested audience and those who heard the lecture were impressed with the truth of Mr. Weed‘s views of the situation. After the address a meet: ing of the teachers of the Sunday school was held. mitt?” “‘9 "W- t W.|NIIIROPS DEEMED MASKHBALL Y. M. C. A.

Young Keyser had cut down a large tree in the woods and was tr ming it up when the blade of his aha axe slipped and went into his left hand. The blow was a heavy one and was an upward instead of a downward strike. The keen edge of the axe pierced the wrist, cutting the bone, two small ar- teries and covering the chord which connects with the index finger. Soon after the accident Keyaer call ed to his father, who was working about any feet from his son, in a com- monplncs y and said. "Look.

The cast of characters comprised twenty of the best known you ics of the town. many of who never fear of becoming old maids if their personal appearance is any cri- tcrion. The plot of the production can be briefly stated as being a convention cmnpriscd of old maids who have held tlve meetings prior to the one from which the public is These meetings have been held for the purpose of devising means of get- ting husbands and none of the mem bers have been able to hit upon any feasible plan to accomplish that much to be. desired end. Finally a traveling professor and fakir strikes town with he calls an "Electrical Trans- former.” which has the merit of en- dowing any girl with any accomplish- ment which she. may desire. The trying times the professor has at the convention and the many ludi- crous desires of the "Old Maids" for accomplishments which them, are the basis of very funny situ- ations which the actresses last. even- lng brought out in a meritorious inun- what Her.
