Ho then went towards the front platform and was followed by the drunken man's friend. The car was full of ladies , nnd only three men were in it. The ladies became ( tightened anil scrambled out of the car as did two ol the men. The man who was knocked oil the car again jumped on and just as Doc tor Ellis had got the broken glass from the window shook off , he received a blow in the head from the fellow's fist. The follow then made for the front platforn aftnr his assailant and away they skippec over the dashboard leaving Dr. Ellis the only occupant of the car.

The event of yesterday was the laying of the corner stone of the new Catholic hurch. The ceremonies took place ycs- orilay afternoon.

" The ceremonies included not only the blessing of the stone , and its consecration bj sprinkling with holy water , but an imposing march was made around the entire foundations which were likewise consecrated by the sprinkling of the ivator. The dodicary sermon was deljvercu by llev. Father Nugent , of Ues Moiucs. Ho stood on the front ot the church founda tion and spoke in so clear and ringing a voice that the great crowd , reaching out in every direction , Tilling the streets an < l sidewalks , could hear every word. It was a wonderful discourse. Those who witnessed the preceding ceremonies , and who intended listening to but a fragment of the sermon , found themselves stand ing as attentive listners to the very limsh. Father Nugent is ono of the finest orators in the church. Yesterday was one of his best cfForts _ . Al though following a logical line of thought , closely knitting argu ment to argument , the discourse was full of fervor and feeling. His ser mon was peculiarly interesting to those outside of the church , as it was a strong setting forth of the peculiar text of the Catholic faith. The burden of the argu ment was to show that the Catholic church , was the church , the true church , the only church. He based his reasoning on the fact that any ono who believed -in the divinity of Christ must deem it reasonable enable that Christ would establish a divine church. A divine person like Christ would not establish a human church , any more than a human person could establish a divine churclu The reverend father then proceeded to show the organization of this churcn. The twelve were commissioned by Christ to go out into the world and preach the gospel to every peoule. They were made a corporation. The charter was given them. The life of this coruoration was to be to the end of all time. The church was to last as long as the earth lasted. But huviug organized and got their divine charter it became necessary that something cjso should be added. This was the spirit which de scended in pentceost. Christ in organiz ing His church on earth meant that this church should be the mouthpiece of God. It must necessarily be human , but the promise was given that the spirit shall remain in the church to keep it from error. This led to the development of the claini that the true church could Do ever distinguishable by certain signs which no human organization calling itself a church could over successfully coun terfeit. Ono of these was the unity of the church and the unity of doctrine. The Catholic church held to the same doctrines vyhich were preached in the days of Christ. These doctrines were given to the church by Christ , and could not bo changed. The spirit had r - mainod in the church guarding it. Other organizations wcro human. They looked on theology as a progressive , and oven doubtful science. Not so with this church. Its doctrines did not change. They could not change any mora than Christ could change. The opponents of the church criticised it as not being progressive. Jt gloried in the fact that it clung to the same doctrines which Christ taught. This was the foundation of the doctrine of the infallibility of the church. If this" was a more human organiza tion. a mere divinity club , this could not be , but the church was divine In its origin , and was the means by which God was moulding the world. The doctrine of the apostolic sueccs slon was also dwelt upon. The illustr.i tion of the corporation maintaining its life through individual members passed uway was again used. The commission was handed down the centuries , and no man could put his finger on ono break in the chain , so that those who wcro to-day commissioned to go forth and teach all nations received their message by a di rect line from Christ himself. Another distinguishes feature of this true church was the holiness of the church. It being divine , indestructible and indivlsablo. It must bo holy. It was hero that the itrugglo arose with the world. The doctrines of infallibility and of apostolical succession were for theologians , but the holiness of the church touched practical lifeIt was the edge of the chisel which cixmo in contact with the rough block of marble , chipping it into beauty. The holiness of the church was always in conflict with the evil of the world. Hence the church was always in trouble , always would bo. There could bo counterfeits made of the externals ol the church , but the church itself couli ! never bo counterfeited. An artist rnighl model a man from marble , but could nol give it life. A church organization ol human origin was like the cold statute. God had breathed his spirit into the church and it could not bo counterfeited. The speaker made an earnest appeal for Catholics to stand by the faith which has thus come down to them through the centuries from Christ himself. The church being the roico of God , it should bo obeyed promptly and willingly. As tbo building , the corner stone of which was thus laid , was to be the house ol God , it should bo erected with generous , willing bunds. God should be honored , and an expression given of the faith ol the people. Everyone should have a portion tion in tbo building. Blessings would followed. The following were the contents of the box deposited in the stone : A parch ment on which was written the name of the church : the name of the pastor ; .date . of laying of corner-stone , and by whom nldj namei of present pope , president of .ho United States , governor of Iowa , and mayor of the city.

"Wo will now have No. 5 on the pro- ? raino , " said a gentleman in the opera iiouse on Saturday night , shortly after the curtain dropped at the end of one of he acts. "I haven't missed a single show " he continued "tlmtlms , , played in this house in the past year , and 1 know ivery tune that the orchestra can play. ) nu thing nice about it is that you can 'ollow the musicians through their parts ind bo as well able to judge if they drop lotcs , etc. , as if ypu were n musician yourself.

J. C. Bixuv. UNDBHTAKKKS' TAtiES. Stories Told Ity Kuncrnl Directors At Their Kcttnlar Meeting. Pittsburgh Dispatch : ' ! had a funny experience years ago , when I worked for Mavor-elcct McCallin in this " - city , re marked a county undertaker. "What was that ? " "Why , I got paid for burying a man twice. It was this way. A man had been fished up out of the river and sent to our Iiouse to bury. That night about ! ) o'clock in came two women , a mother and daughter , named Smith , living on the South side. They asked to see the drowned man , and as quick as I lifted the cloth that covered his fuco , the old lady threw up both hands and screamed. 'That's him ; that's my poor husband. ' The young lady identified him , too , but didn't seem to fool very bad. Tlio next morning the family lawyer came to mo and gave orders for the burial. The old man , it seemed , had considerable money ; at any rate , I worked him off real re spectable like , and got my pay. bout About a year later the same lawyer came to me and says : "You ought to owe nie $30. " " 'Why , " says 1. " 'Why , 1 paid you that for tmryineold Smith about a year ago , and ho wasn't dead. But he is readv to plant this time ; died last night , and 1 came over after yon. " "Well. I went over and laid the man out. Wlulo I was at work on him the old iady came in and said : "Well , he's cad enough this time , poor man. The ight after we'd buried him before he time walking into the room where wo was all sitting. Ho had taken a little too much drink , and had just got over it and read about our buryin' him in the papers , and Lor' but ho was mad. I knew it was no spcrret as soon as ho came in. But 1 guess ho won't come back this time. ' " "I never like to shave a corpse , " re marked a red headed funeral director from an adjoining county , "and if it is practicable always like to get a barber. About a month ago I had an old man to bury who had died with four or livn days' growth of beard. His limbs had contracted terribly after death , and to straighten thorn out we had laid a couple of pieces of plank across him. Ho was lying on his bed in this * way when the barber came a big colored follow with considerable superstition about him. Ho shaved the outside of the face all right , and then had to climb on the bed , over the deceased , to shave tno other side. In some way his knees hit the plank which lay across the dead man's chest and hold his arms down , releasing both arms. They sprnnc together like the jaws of a steel-trap , and happened to catch the barber on both sides of the head. Ho gave ono long yell that lasted till ho reached the street , and that was the last seen of him. I had to finish the job myself. The darky was so badly scared that it was three days before ho went to work again. The following dialogue is alleged to have been overheard at the convention , and was retold with considerable gusto : Country Undertaker Do you make any diflerenco in your own manner and expression in conducting different fu nerals ? City Funeral Director Certainly. I have three expressions ono for first- class funerals , ouo for medium , and one for cheap funerals. First class funerals , as I call them , are when the family has wealth and social position. These people ple are calm .and undemonstrative in their sorrow , and I use what 1 call my "dignified sorrow" expression n calm , sad look , with a white tie. I charge f 10 extra for this in my etceteras , lor the medium class I just sling ina-sortof "ministerial sadness" look that costs them $5 extra. If the family'havo ' lots of monov and are pretty shoddy , and bound to make a big show , i use a "suppressed grief" expression that I pride myself on. It is really pathetic. That costs the mourners $25 , but it's a dandy. "ME AND CLEVELAND. " The Great Scheme a Blenr-Eyecl Barn Hit on In Washington. "Towlo" in Boston Traveller : A short time ago it blear-eyed bum who had often boasted that "mo and Cleveland are chums ; I've slept with him often when wo lived in Buffalo , " hit upon a racket which has not only raised him in the esti mation of others , but has kept the dust out of his throat over since. Ho attended the white house receptions and ho saw that there was a chance to strike an alco holic bonanza , so to speak. He went back to his old position in one of the hotel lobbies and cultivated the acquaint ance of the strangers. Casually ho told them the old story of "me and Cleve land , " adding by the way , "I would take great pleasure in gif ing you a personal EISEMAN'S Greatest Sale Begins Monday.April , . 25th.

Of course they would esteem it an honor , etc. Then the "worker" replied that he would make ar rangements. The next reception day he headed quite a respectable procession and asked them into the cast room at the white house. While there he regaled them with stories about the president's daily life until Mr. Cleveland appeared. Hcing careful to head the line , ho up' , proachcd the president with great effu siveness , shook hands , and tliun Intro duced the strangers by name. The in troductions certainly looked as though the "worker" enjoyed the president's personal acquaintance , while as a matter of fact Air. Cleveland never saw the man beloro. Of course this little episode raised the "worker" high in the estima tion of the newlv-founiT friends , and for several days afterwards ho fairly reveled in their hospitable attentions. It is hardly necessary co add that none of the officials at the executive mansion are familiar with these facts. As soon as they learn them some steps will be taken to pro tcct visitors from this imposition. It Didn't Eml flight.

"Supose we let everybody crack nuts on the car seats ; don't you see it would deface them ? I tell you it won't do. You'll have to stop it. "I'll pay for all the damage I do , " said the little man , bringing his knife handle down on the nut again. "You'll get out of the car if yon don't quit. That's what you'll do , " quoth the exasperated brakoman. "Oh , no , I think not , " said the little man , "I'll try to put up with the injury to the car.
