8 THE QMATIA. TATLY BEEi t FRIDAY , PEOBMREB 7 , 1804. EUROPE OF BISHOP NEWJW Ite Two Great Oiticj , Thrco Great Natiom and Thrco Great Social Movements. EFFECT OF NEW WORLD INFLUENCES Itellccllons on the Mfc , Thought nnd Ies tiny of Niitloin Acre > tha Witter Lecture nt the lint Methodist Church Latt Kvcnlnir , r The First Methodist church was filled U ] Blairs and down stairs at the lecture glvei last night by Bishop John P. Newman. Th audience was composed largely of proml Inent people of the city , and throughout th Icctuto they paid the speaker rapt attention Bishop Newman was Introduced to the audl tnce by Rev. Frank Crane , and when he aron to speak he v/as greeted with a round ot ap plauee. Bishop Newman opened his lecture by say Ing that he had often been asked what Ecaso : of the year he preferred for crossing th ocean. He has crostcd the water In all fou ot the seasons , and he has found the montl ot December as pleasant as the month ot May Ho has observed , too , that all tourist ! whether old or young , on business or pleasure are equally anxious to see land again. Ac cording to the bishop's analysis , there ar three classes of travelers , the superficial , wh only go to display their wealth and return t their native land with fewer Ideas than the ; had when they went away ; the aesthetic , wh liveIn Imagination and whose delight Is t visit poetical and historical scenes and t tread In halls where statesmen have arouse their fellow countrymen to great deeds o patriotism ; the philosophical , who do not de splso the aesthetic side ot travel , but whc from their logical turn of mind , trace ou great epochs of history. They seek for th philosophy of mighty movements which marl the epochs of history and show that the Ore ntor Is not only a logician , but also a geome trlclan. When these return to their natlv land they not only have enriched themselves but they enrich their fellow countrymen. Ate to whether the pleasure of foreign travel lie In the anticipation , the realization or the re flection that follows , the speaker thought wa still an open question , but ho obtained th greatest pleasure In the reflections that cam to him In the study. In his Imagination h was then once more traveling In fore'gn land ! FACES OF ROYALTY. The bishop stated that for more than thlrt years ho had been Interested In Europe. Fou times ho had bcn there , In 1860 as a studen In 1874 , In 1881 , and again for seven month In 18D4. During that tlmo ho had pern trated Into all parts of the continent , an had seen many sovereigns , Queen Victoria , vigorous woman , and then burdened wit years ; the prlnco regent , Napoleon , tl : nphynx ; Leopold , the cunning , crafty , swart diplomat ; the great William ; Alexander I who had signed the ukase to manumit tl ; ricrfs and who was assassinated ; his sui cossor , the late Alexander III ; the lad wli Is now czar of all the Russlas ; Francl Joseph II , "stately as a Corinthian colum and majestic as a prince ; " two sultans < Turkey , and on the banks of the Tiber tli holy father , Plus IX. "Tho great cities are to mo the great a traction. They are worlds In miniature I me. " All travelers will seek a center ( some kind , a pivotal spot about which a thought shall cluster. Such centers are grc : cities to the bishop. To him London Is miniature world of 5,000,000 people , the Ir iluenco of which extends wherever the su ahlncs , on all continents where trade abound Ho who would study English history woul not fall to find In Ihla marvelous center i thought scenes majestic and histories In mortal. There one con stand In the garde In which Milton wrote his great "Paradli Lost , " 'In the forum wherePitt , spoke ; thei It la where Newton 'sdlved the problem i the skies and Macaulay wrote his Immort history. Tlicro are flvf places In London that Blshc Newman especially reveres. One Is tl tower of London , where "princes were mu dered and martyrs slain , where the regal o'l the English kingdom Is guarded , the m ; Jestlo pile where memories are written blood.'i Another Is the wonderful "Brltli museum , "where the ends-of ttotrorld-mret The lecturer did not "think that Is was po slblo to go to any other spot In the wor and to find archaeology , ethnology or. phllo ophy so represented. The third spot Is Westminster Abbe "whero British royalty Is crowned , and whe British royalty Is burled ; where sleep tl honored dead , poets , orators , statesmen ; whe ono mingles with the mighty spirits who writings have given direction to the though and destinies of mankind. " Another pla Is the great St. Paul's , where the first co | of the English bible was read , where t ; great reformers were cited to trial , ai within whoso walls the greatest preachc of England have been heard. IN BRITISH PARLIAMENT. The fifth place Is the Parliament , the ce ter of political power. It has been Blsh Newman's good fortune to see there and he Palmerston , "the great statesman , but fo : In argument ; " Disraeli , "toe Engllsn Apol Belvldere. with Byronlc brow and cur crafty , whoso English was like music ; " Gla stone , "towering above the other two , wl a dome-like head , who spoke * like a Rom senator. " Parliament is now changed. On his last visit the bishop was In alter once at a session at which the Irish questl was discussed. There ho saw Redmor Balfour , Incisive and smiling , sarcastl Chamberlain , majestic , plain , but forclb Labouchere , the radical of the radicals ; lit court , ponderous In Intellect and form , the House of Lords he saw two men w he thinks will become the leaders ot En land Salisbury , a conservative , English frc head to foot , thoroughly read , ponderous a thinker ; Rosebery , on the opposite side the house , a Scotchman , a traveler , an auth a sportsman , a splendid looking man , In t prime of life. The English would call h clever , the Yankees would call him cma He has been trained In statecraft by Git stone , as Gladstone was trained by Pe "By degrees his mighty plans are bel worked out. Do not be surprised If by t next cablegram you hear of the rupture the Turkish empire and the severance Armenia. On all the shores ot tha Persl gulf , and up to the magnificent city of Br dad , there Is Uosebery's gunboat and t English resident. " Greater still , In his Imagination , Is t rupture ot the great empire of China. Tt Is his dream , noscbery will take the heart China. He will not touch the northern pa ho will leave that to Russia and the Jai But he will take all the south. He h reached Hong Kong already. Then Engla : will xo for China what she has done 1 India. The boy that Is now In school w see as mighty a revolution as that wht occurred in India. Great , Indeed , Is c England. England.ITS ITS THREE GREAT CITIES. H ho were a ked what the three gre cities ot the old world are , Bishop Nowm would answer , Jerusalem , nome and Lc don. He does not forget Athens , where t academy of Plato was , the prison ot Socral and the baema from which Pericles spot nor Constantinople , where Constant ! reigned In all his glory ; nor Vienna , theme home ot the house of Hapsburg ; nor Berl which gave Luther ; nor St. Petersburg , theme home ot the czar and czarina. But Bishop Newman's opinion Jerusalem Is t background ot exact history , ot a phlli ophy that "went forth as a scepter to sw everywhere. " As a connecting link betwe the past and the present Is the city ot t seven hills , old Rome and the new , Durl the pact few years excavations have be made that have laid old Home open at on feet , and U l possible to stand on gpi that are famous In history. New Rome 1 boulevards , parks , houses of merchant ! ) palacei , and U now free In the sense tl Individuality is { recognized. The peal vlilted the Italian Parliament and there saw Premier Crlspl , "the old Garibaldi who had the courage to fight with the n shlrted anurchlit , " and today la prime in Uter ant ! one ot the most aitute statein of Europe , He wai sitting "with the rci * of u , god on hit brow , " with the war budi In hU lap. He showed that the poverty Il ly was not the retult of an extra vagi trmy and navy , but of the building of gr 1 railway systems through the country , which will enrich It In tlmo to come. ITS THREE GREAT NATIONS. It Blfchop Newman were ankfd what the three greatest nations of the futures would be ho would answer Switzerland , England nnd Germany. Switzerland , the llttlo republic of glaciers , of alplno heights , of sunny lakes , why should that become mighty ? No nation on the face of the globe , In the opinion of the speaker , not even excepting the United States , has done more to help humanity. From It has come the postal system , the In ternational telegraph system , the Interna tional railroad association. Today It Is striv ing to establish a uniform system of coinage for all nations. "It Is a nation capable of mighty thought , and Is destined for Im mortality. " Germany Is the home of original thinkers. All the greatest thinkers In philos ophy , metaphysics and theology In all history have been 'found ' there. They are ponderous In thought and expression , and tireless In In vestigation. England'u Influence will bo for personal liberty. The speaker was Impressed with three great upward movements of society In Eu rope. First , the reign of the people. The day of absolutism Is past , has given way to the Individuality of the British subject. Al though respect Is yet paid to the monarch , deference Is paid to the people. There Is no liberty of speech In any country , America cxccpted , as In England. "For say as you please , the reign of the people has come. " Governments no longer regard the people In the mass , but as Individuals. But England Is moro sagacious than wo ore. Their suffrage IB more restricted than ours , and Is based on property qualifications and education. "Uni versal suffrage Is a humbug. " Another grsat fact Is the spread of common school educa tion. The old world has long boasted of Its universities , but until within a few years the common mind was enslaved. Now the com mon mind is becoming emancipated. In Italy there are 60,000 schools open every day. In Germany education Is as free as the tun. In Scandinavia , out of 800,000 children of school age , only 15,000 do not attend school. "These are Indices that the humanity Is tending toward a better future. " Another movement Is the emancipation , of the common con science. The bishop said that In all the countries that he had visited this Is taking place. In Hungary the civil marriage bill was passed , although the clergy opposed It bs- cause It would decresao their revenue. It was passed after Francis Joseph had favored It. The'blshoo ascribed these great movements In Europe to ihei Influence of America. "Amer ica has been the potent Influence of transform- Ing' the governments of Europe and letting In the light of liberty. Wherever I have gone I have seen one American face. Beside the picture of the "Iron Duke , " of Victoria , of William , of Garibaldi , of Francis oseph , I have seen the face of him who sleeps tonight on the Potomac , who Is Immortal. Wherever men sigh for liberty there they will remember the name and revere the memory of George Washington. " _ Common Sense Should be used In attempting to cure that very disagreeable disease , catarrh. As catarrh originates In Impurities In the blood , local applications can do no permanent good. The common sense method of treatment Is to purify the blood , and for this purpose there Is no preparation superior to Hood's Sarsaparllla. Hcod's Pills cure constipation by restoring peristaltic action to the alimentary canal. llnvo Von Hccn Tlicro ?

'or ' four nights and a special popular price matinee Wednesday afternoon. It Is nol a case of brightening up the old p'ay , bul an entirely new ' 'Dazzler" Is1 offered this rear. Special attention has been paid U ; ho dressing and scenic effects of- the piece and a more elaborate production Is prom sed than ever before.

'I can easily account for my leaning to ward boy characters , whether In rags o : livery , " said Katie Emmett to a reporte : yesterday. "As a girl I lived In Chicago and when the Academy of Music was play Ing the strong stock company that made 1 famous In the theatrical world I was en trusted with the comedy roles , I had ai opportunity there to observe the newsbo ; and the street waif In his native habitat and the strain of real manliness and chlv airy that I even now find beneath thel ragged coats and grimy skins was easll ; Idealized by my girlish fancy. It was al ways my delight to watch the 'newsies , and then go homo and astonish my friend by giving Imitations of their ways. Th fancy did not leave me , and the parts tha I played with the most pleasure during m ; long engagement there were those In whlcl I portrayed the boys' characters , and to that reason chiefly I clung so long to 'Th Waifs of New York' against the protesta tlons of my managers. I finally did abon don the piece , but It was with a pang o real regret , for although a piece like 'Kll larney , ' for Instance , gives me fully as goo scope , still I know with the 'Waifs' off th stage the brave little fellows about our clt streets are likely to be longer mlsundei stood. Maybe It's a conceit of mlno ( an we women of the stage have plenty c them ) , but I think I know the young vagc bonds more Intimately than do most of thos who represent them on the stage , and fc that reason think I can carry their pai better than many to whom I am willing t concede superior natural talent. " Miss En mett appears at the Empire theater for fou nights , commencing Sunday matinee , D < Cember 0 , In her new play , "Klllarney. " Perlyips the most noteworthy of the al tractions announced for the Boyd this EC : son Is Jacob Lilt's picturesque drama c Blue Grass life , "In Old Kentucky. " Thl play enjoyed a run of seven months at tli big Academy of Music .In New York la : winter. A brass band composed entirely ( little colored boys Is perhaps the most strll ing of the several Innovations seen , but U genuine horse race , between a half dozt Kentucky thoroughbreds , Is In Itself the ver zenith of realism and the most thrlllln climax ever placed upon a stage.
