Aside from com memorating the birth of the Savior , the oc- "isloii will mark the silver anniversary of the institution of the church. The St. Mac- Jalcn's society was organized on Christmas day , 18S3 , and Its first quarter of a century of existence ends with a llatteriui ? record of progress and usefulness. The church Is the oldest of the Catholic faith In the city , with the exception of St.l'hllomena's , nnd Ills the parent stock from which Xwo other churches tiavo sprung. The church wa organized under the management of Hov. Father O'C5roonobaura. who remained Us active pastor for twelve and one-half years. It originally Includnd only twelve members , but at the close of Father O'Grocnebaum's pastorate Its mem bership had Incrcasod-to over eighty fami lies. Father OXlrocnobaum was succeeded ny Kov. Father G. H. Glauber , who U stlU the pastor. Under his energetic supervision thu church lias made rapid strides and after deducting the portions of the coitRrcKatlon which have been Incorporated into now churches nearly 100 families still worship under Us spire. Uncier Father Glauber's administration the membership of the church Increased so rapidly that It was found necessary to dlvido the congregation , and a now site was purchased at Seven teenth nnd Center streets , where what Is known as St. Joseph's church was erected In the following year. This church now In cludes about 200 families and is In charge of Father Charles HreUkopb. The congregation of St. Magdalenes church Included a number of German Pules , and their number was Increased until it was deemed aavlsablo to provide thorn with iv church of their own. This was erected at Twenty-ninth and Walnut streets , where nearly 150 families now worship under the direction of Father Jacklmowsky. The records of the church , which have boon carefully kept by Father Glauber , show that there have boon 1,1CU baptisms in the congregation. Marriages huvo been celebrated to the number of 1M4 and the sacrament has been administered to 350 ilrst communicants. There have been fifty con verts and -403 burials have been attended from the altar. The St. Magdalen's parochial school was founded simultaneously with the organiza tion of the church. Hero have been edu cated 1.400 children and 150 pupils nro now entered on its roster. The school is also under the direction of Father Glauber , to whose exertions much of 1's success is due. The services today- will begin with a solemn high mass at 5 a. in. Ths low mass will bo celebrated at S o'clock and at 10:30 : the second high mass will bo followed by the sermon. The masses will bo celebrated by Hov. Father Glauber , assisted by Ilcv. Father A. M. Colaueri , deacon , and Hov. Father McLaupblln. sub.lcacon. The music will uo rendered by the usual choir.

Cramblet , has entered upon his fourth year as pastor of the church. Dur- \ug \ the lureo years of uli pastorale 310 addi tions have been made to the church , making the present membership 4CI. The congrega tion raised { 4,100 during the year , and closes the year without ilellcloncy In the treas ury. Besides thh work the congregation , during the present pastorate , has cst.ib- llsned two other nhurchos In the city , or' of which , the Grant Street Christian church , has been established In a neat church buildIng - Ing and Is In n very flourishing condition. The church under the pastoral care of Hov. Cramblet has been more prosperous than over before , nnd is now united and hopeful. It Is expected that soon a now church build ing will bo erected. IllA .MI'S THU PA HUNTS. St. tlarnnbn * titinrcli Will Ultcontlntio the Sunilny Srhonl. On the llrst Sunday of .tho now year n change will bo made as td the religious In struction of the children In St. Barnaoas. For many years the rector has felt the utter- Inadequacy of the Sunday school with Its ono short hour for both the study of religious faith and moral * and for recitation. His ex perience has taught him that many parents throw off the sense of their own responsi bility , for the Christian education of their children , upon the Sunday school , n responsi bility ofwhich uo church ana no Sunday- school can tttsslbly relieve them. Moreover , ho has noticed that parents get rid also of the obligation of bringing their children to church with themselves to worship , because they have either already boon at Sunday school or nro going to attend after church service. The Sunday school In such cases becomes a positive injury in relieving Chris- ttun parents of their positive obligation to train their own children In their own faith , and to train them In the Christian duty of devout church attendance. In the present day the ono short hour of Sunday school Is made to attempt .ii Impossible thing to make good the lack of homo religious cul ture , and to make good for the utter absence of Christian teaching in the day school. And so hereafter the Sunday school will be abolished In St. Barnabas parish , and re sponsibility will be thrown back on parents and sponsors to train their own clilldrcn in catechetical instruction. On the first Lord's day of each month the rector will call for the children of the parish to catechize and instruct them imbllcly , at the 11 o'clock servico. This Instruction will take the place of n sermon on that day. Catechisms and instruction books will bo placed in the hands of the parents for use , and sponsors will bo asked and expected to exercise nn oversight of the children for whom they have given a solemn promise of oversight. The.young men of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew , in St. Barnabas , have commenced regular Sunday afternoon services at the county hospital at 4 o'clock. For a .year or longer , ono of theirnumber , Mr. WillBrown , has visited the hospital every Sunday after noon , supplying the inmates with healthful reading , papers and the leading magazines. This year they have gone another stop. Two or three of their number ire out each Sunday for a public service. Rev. Irving John son , as a rule , takes the clerical duty to con duct the service and preach. When any thing Interferes to prevent him , the rector of St. Barnabas church takes the duty. Tno Inmates of the hospital take a warm Interest In the coming of the young men , and Mr. Strykcr und the others in cliarco seem interested also , nnd they certainly are very courteous and helpful. Told In the Churches. A recital will be given in the FirstCongre- gational church Christmas afternoon at 3:30 : o'clock by Mr. W. T. Taber , organist , as sisted by Miss Neolo M.

Count Lublenskl of Warsaw , Poland , will hold a final conference with the Douglas countvi , citizens' committee at the Commer cial club next Tuesday. It Is thought that definite action will bo taken at that meeting and the beat sugar factory project will bo settled. The committee met the count twice during the past wook. At the lirst conference a proposition was submitted to him. The cotnmlltoo took U under consideration and held another session Wednesday afternoon , nt which the proposition mis thoroughly discussed. The committee again mot Count LublonskI nt the Commercial club Jnst Friday and pro- scutcd a counter proDosltlon which was par tially agrucablo to him. Count Lublunskl expressed his views to a BBC reporter yesterday as follows : "I have just returned from a trip in the Elkhorn valley nnd have decided to establish a Polish colony at Nellgh. With relation to the proposed beet sugar factory in this county , I deiirc to state that 1 prefer to locate It near Omaha , because tno name of this city U well and favorably known in the ilnaiicial marts of Kuropo , and hits the confidence of foreign capital. They all seem to know where Omaha is and are fully aware of Us commercial iin.ortaiico ] , If the farmers of this ounty will become intere&tca In sugar beet culture , and the business men of Omaha will glvo mo u guaranty that 4,000 acres of sugar beets will be raised annually , the factory is an assured fact. At lirst I wanted n guaranty ot 0.000 acres , but the committee suggested 4,000 and these fig- urcs are acceptable to mo , provided that a guaranty is made which wilt warrant an In vestment of the capital which I represent. "Tho farmers should attend the meeting at the Commercial club next Tuesday at a o'clock. I prefer to have the farmers' guar anty to cultivate beets for not less than live years.

The bounty , of course , cuts some figure but I sincerely hope thai satisfactory ar rangements can bo completed for the erec tion of the proposed plant , as I mean busi ness and my time is limited. I go to Kuropo in a few weeks and will establish a colony of seventy-five Polish families at Neligh in March. I feel friendly toward Kcbraskans and uopo to succeed in my dcslro to put up a factory here.

In many of the city nnd country schools Friday afternoon Christmas celebrations by the kinergarton departments wore had. The character of the programs and the enjoy ment of the children justify to increasing popularity of this feature In the public schools. At Krlloin School. The klndcrgarter at the Kcllom school was the seeno of a happy expectation and Joyous realization Thursday and Friday after noons. The attendance is so large that the pupils have to bo divided Into two sections , ono attending In the afternoon and one in the morning. Thursday afternoon section 1 carried out Us program ; Friday afternoon was devoted to section 2. Miss Shields and her assistants had been very enthusiastic and untiring In their efforts nnd the result was n Christmas tree of unusual proportions bedecked with all the colors of the rainbow paper chains , gilt air castles , cornucopias and many other devices all made by the llttlo hands of the kinder garten children. The following program was given : 1'rnyer. Hymn , Once Them Was a lllrdlc. Song , Uood Morning , Merry Christmas. The Morning I'ulr. Thumhklnss-nys , I'll Dance.

The room was thronged with the parents and friends of the children , who expressed their delight nnd approval of the per formances. Each child had made a present , a letter case , handkerchief box orother little article for its parents. They were made of the gaily colored paper which plays such n frequent , part in the Kindergarten work , and as the tokens were handed to the ones for whom they wore Intended , it would he dlfll- 'cult to determine which was the most pleased , the gtvur or the recipient. The "circle" mentioned in the program is the playing of panics by the little ones and formed ono of the most enjoyable num bers. bers.Tho room was decorated with flags and the traditional holly , while a figure of Santa Claus on the blackboard looked indulgently down on those assembled. "Dinner " week is notable day , once a , a part of the work. Each child brings its own little lunch which forms n part of the dinner served out on real dishes. The infljjenec of this part of the course Is not ' \f \ > bo estimated. Children who como in\o \ tlib kindergarten stslflsh , ill-mannered and cross , in a few weeks learn to be polite a'nd willing to share with each other. l There is a marked contrast between the first dinner day and ( .hose that follow u month later. The inauguralday prodjiced a general scramble and reaching for what was best , but the ensuing discipline in a short time brought order out -chaos and made the dinner day a much desired timo. tionit Tllno nt l.ulio. The first term of the kindcriiartcn of the Lake school closed with'appropriate exer cises last Friday afternoon , with n goodly number of parents in attendance to watch the antics of the seventy-'fOUr-littlo cherubs who had commenced laying ahofoundation ' for the future. ' This suhool Is- the pritlo'rfnd Joy of the res idents of the north end of "tltu city , and con sequently has attracted 'much attention , being pointed to as a model institution of learning. The entire school , with an enrollment of nearly l.COO pupils. Is under the direction of Miss Whitmore , who is as- sited by a laruc corps of able teachers , The kindergarten is under the general supervi sion of the principal of the school , but is conducted by Miss Torrey , director , and Miss Hamilton , both ladies of long ex- uerirnco in this line of school work. In ad dition to the two regular teachers , there are four cadets from tlio training school.who are assigned to the Lnku kindergarten , In order that they may become familar with this particular branch of the profession of teaching. Friday being the closing day of : h2 term a larco number of parents had been invited to witness the carrying out of the program , which , in part , consistent of the regular every day exercises. During the afternoon the llttlo boys and girls sang their songs , played their trade games and went through their calis thenics with a grace that was the envy of their elders. They were In no wise discon certed on account of the largo number of visitors , nud in performing their duties everything was in such a matter-of-fact way that the little fellows weft the recipients of several hearty rounds of applause. \ \ Ith the close of the school exercises a beautiful Christmas tree was uncovered , and from its branches a genuine Santa Clais picked off sacks of candy , fruit and popocrn. which ho distributed with a lavish hand among his little friends. I'uclllc CliMdrvn SurprUed. The children of the Pacific school kinder garten had a celebration Friday so gorgeous and unexpected as to almost take their breath away. During their absence at noon a beautiful Christmas trco was placed in the center of the circle ana laden with the chil dren's work. Dainty chains were festooned about It , and drangling from the green boughs were lovely cornucopias , gill puffballs - balls , tiny calendars and noodle-books. But when the curtains were lowered and the candles lighted the effect was dazzling. After playing their fuvonto games around this magic wonder they ono and all wished they might telephone to Santa Claus to como and see tht'in. This was easily done , and soon ho was ushered In by Ibc'pruicipal. Miss McCarthy , and looking as jolly and fat us over. Eacn child made the most of this memorable opportunity , nnd told Santa Claus confidentially what they wanted , even giving their addresses correctly. However , ho had como prepared to u certain extent , for-now some bags of bright tarlatan oru dis tributed , each holding Its load of candy and popcorn , to bo taken homo nnd enjoyed at leisure. In this part of town there are many little ones who will liavo no Christmas hap piness oxcepi this so kindly furnished by their instructors , and it , y ll bo long remem bered by them , 4l At I.euvfiiworthiSchool , In their own room , triinhiod with ever green and holly , with Hght' J day excluded , seated in a circle about ajrco reaching from celling to floor , which was Jjiden with bright and pretty Christmas fojwous , the work of the children's own hands , . Jot- their parents were over fifty , awed aim luisV.r'd llttlo tots. They wcro early visltcd'by'all the grades of the building , marching in < Vwos , escorted b.v their respective teauhorai li Alter a wclcomo spoken and ono sung to , parents present. 6ovcr.il bright und cheery songs appropriaimn-tlio season wcro heartily rendered. ThoJciiiUrcn wcro then told that though SantUuJ laus loved the have a pleasant time.and he'would have more opportunity to look out for all the little - tlo poapio. Each child received as u sur prise u fancy stocking .of , nuts and candies. With happy hearts , beaming faces and loaded arms , they btartrd for home , muny wishing their teachers a "Merry Ohristmas" and saying they had "had surh a nice time. " Oula Hay ut Caitellar. Friday was n gala day for tlio children of the Castellar kindergarten. Besides the other appropriate decorations o.f the room , ( here was a Christmas tree laden with llttlo gifts which the children had made for their parents , together with a bag of candy/for each chua. Thn parents were invited in the morning to witness the games and hear the Christinas songs of their lit tlo ones. In thu afternoon three primary rooms unite , ! with the kindergarten in an entertainment. Mrs. Shirts of the Trinity cathedral choir , sang a selection iu her best style , cud Miss Arm- brustfr rendered a piano * olo. The toiehris havlnc chanra ot this vntortnlntnant were : Miss Etta Smith , MU * Armbrustor and Mrs. Mlcklo of the primary , nml the MU4cs Boutcllc , Ncr , e , Uavls and Hutchln- son of the kindergarten. In I ho Country School * , In the country districts nearly all the schools closed the fall term last Friday afternoon , nnd in n largo number of them ap propriate ) Christmas exercises wcro hold. There were several Christmas Irccs , from which candy and presents wcru distributed. In speaking of those exercises. Superin tendent Hill yesterday remarked thai the custom of celebrating Christmas In the country schools was becoming much more general. Within two or Mirco years ho pre dicted that every school In the county would have Its Christmas tree. Instead of attending the closing exercises of the schools , Mr. Hill remained in his office last Friday and attended to school business. This was duo to the fact that ho wanted to treat nil of the schools alike. Ho had received twenty-four Invitations to at tend that number of schools and In addition thereto ho had been invited to ( to out and play the part of Santa Claus in nine of thu sixty-three districts. Being un.iblo to divide himself into so many portions , ho concluded that the best policy was to refuse to accept any of the invitations. King of Minn's I Illicit SorloiM. PAIIIO , Dec.
