Her. Hobcrl Doherty , S. T. D. , delivered
* lecture on "St. Patrick ana the True
Teaching of the Early Irish Church" to o
mall audience at Trinity Episcopal ca
thedral lost evening. St. Patrick's llfo and
works were briefly reviewed , and the alleged
Wrongs of the Human Catholic church In SO'
curing contiol of the Church of Ireland ,
founded by St. Patrick , were considered at
tome length.
In the couriie of hl lecture Canon Dohcrty
eald : "A patriot prizes his country above
his life. A pious man Is hi love with an
other country OB well aa the one In which
ho now resides. Patriotism Is born of piety.
A man who Is truly pious will be a patriot.
An Impious man cannot bo tiuly patriotic
I'lety end patriotism arc based on the same
principles ,

or of Cacrar , compared with that of St
Patrick , the apostle of Iceland ? St. Patrick's
father was a deacon , and his grandfather was
A priest. Ills name Indicates that he was of
noble birth. An a boy he was carried to
Ireland on n foraging expedition. Sentence *
to hard , outdoor labor , drenched by ralr
ami chilled by frosts , he lived six years of
captivity. At the age of 22 he escaped , bul
was soon recaptured. In a little while , how.
ever , he again escaped , this time for good
But all the while , the resolution uppermcol
within his heart was to preach the gospel to
the people who had 111 .treated him. He
had a. holy vision that he should go to Erin
to preach the true gospel to the people
there. So ho coon set out for Gaul , and at
Tours studied for the ministry. Then he
went to other points and worked In further
preparation for the ministry. All the while
ho had his mind made up to preach to tlie
Irish , though this course met with great op
position from his family.
HALCYON DAYS FOR IRELAND.
"Tho Church of Rome had nothing at al
to do with his mission to Iceland. He wen
from the Celtic church of Gaul , In which ho
prepared. In his own Confessions he says
nothing at all about Rome or Its church
The Church of Ireland , whlth St. Patrick
founded , derived 1U * orders from St. John a
Kie.suB ( through others to the Gallic church
St. Patrick founded monasteries and schools
end Ireland became the Isle of the saints
The monasteries became colleges. The men
of other countries came to Ireland to become
como educated. The superior quality of th
students of the Church of Ireland at till
tlmo was that they used the philosophy o
their learning In their religion. Science
too , became far advanced. During this Urn
we cotho first scholastic theology. Thes
were halcyon days for Ireland. It Is a
singular fact that the gospel was brough
to Ireland by two slaves , but euch Is th
truth ; St. Patrick and St. Bridget came t
Ireland first as slaves. But finally It wa
brought about that the church that St. Patrlc
founded should bo folded under the wing o
Rome.
"Tho Church of Ireland was brought undc
the control of Rome In the twelfth centurj
For 726 yearo slnco Rome secured contro
of the Church of Ireland , poor , old Irelaoi
ha.i been the victim of 10,001) ) wrongs nin
robberies. She has been well nlgtt rulnei
by anarchy. The great miseries of her people
plo fiavo touched : the hearts of all but th
hard hearts of her oppressors. Her exile
ere to be found In all lands.
"In 1534 the Church of Ireland , as foundec
by St. Patrick , was revived , and slnco the
It has existed side by side with .the Churc
of Rome. When the Church of Rome flnall
leaves hold of Ireland , and when Englani
which I love and honor , finally does Irelant
justice , then all the -wrongs that Ireland ha
Buffered since It parsed In control of th
Church of Rome will bo forgotten , and w
will hall the day when the Church of St
Patrick la restored. "

of military life In Hindustan , written by

lull of strong situations and to tell an enjoy

tion of "Too Much Johnson. "

"Last night the Hungarian Boys' band
played the Pilgrims' chorus from Wagner's
'Tannhauser' in a way that made the large
audience gasp with astonishment. The
beauties of this great composition were
brought out In a manner which lies beyond
the power of all but the most highly trained
musical organizations , but these boys play
Wagner one moment and Sousa the next
with equal effectiveness. "
A strong specialty company Is offered In
connection with their appearance , headed by
the king of magicians and Illusionists , Ser
vers , Leroy.
The Omaha Orchestral society gives a con
cert at Boyd's this afternoon. A program

"All gold countries have their boom tlmo
and then settle down to business , " laid
Nathaniel Daniels of Loadvllle. "I know con-
Iderablo about mining excitement * . I went
overland to California In ' 49 and was thcro
during all the rich strikes. From there I
went to Oregon and Idaho and then I went
o Leadvlllo and have been through the gold
Inda In Colorado , Leadvllle has settled down
to steady work now , OB all mining camps
do eventually after the first excitement U
over. Placer miners come first and make
treat nolso about how much they find , but
tielr stories ore nluoys exaggerated. After
.his so-called 'poor min's mining' Is done
with It remains for men to put In machin
ery and work the ore on a reasonable basts
and then It Is that mining comes to be of
idvantagc to a state. Alaskl Is no exception
in this respect , I Imagine. Transportation
companies are booming things at present ,
but there will be a reaction and then Alaska
mining \\lll ecttlo down to a stable basis
and real advance will be made. "

Lot's see. Do you thoroughly understand that all
of our best black shoes are to bo $8.50 from now on *
This is not a mark down or a "reduction for a short
time only. " It is the now price on now goods to give
you the benefit of new contracts wo have just made.
Speaking of contracts , have you noticed that our
great $1.60 derby the "Nebraska Special , " is very
much improved this year ? It comes in several now
shapes and two new shades that wo have not been
able to furnish you before. In making our now con
tracts for hats this year , wo have put in a few extra
specifications and the result is that wo are giving bet
ter hats than over for the money this year. Our
cheapest hat is 75c. The market is full of cheap
plunder that can be sold for 50c and even less than
that but union made hats cost more and are worth
moi'e and there is less profit in our 75c hats than in
a good many hats that are selling at 39c. "We show
an immense line of derbies and fedoras at a dollar
and our lines at § 1.50. $2 , § 2.50 and § 3.00 cannot bo
duplicated anywhere in this western country today.
The Nebraska is doing many things this year that it
could not do last year and by watching the space in
the papers you will find out how and why.
