Showing great activity, and at the eaucua
recently held, the first brush occurred over
motion to hav the assembly proceeding"
opened with prayer. This was defeated
by one vote, on the broad ground that
affairs of church and state should be kept
llstlnct. The caucus was attended by
forty-eight delegates.
The action of the assembly on questions
relating to the political future of the
Philippines, is expected to be determined
largely by th opinion expressed by Sec
retary Taft In ' hla address opening the
session. This Is the view held by Filipinos
aa well as Americans. The latter are gen
erally In favor of a specific pronounce
ment on Philippine policy.
' Dissension la National Party.
Th course of legislative action will de
pend on tha result of the fight of Gomel
radicals for control of the national party.
The nationalists, when united, exercise
controlling influence, but their internal di
visions give the progressive Independents
tho balance of power. It is not likely
that party spirit will play much part In
the assembly's affairs, owing to personal
differences within th parties.

at Different Honrs
With solemn high mass. Right Rev.
Richard Scannell. bishop of Omaha, yes terday
gave over St. Phllomena cathed
ral.' for forty years the church home ol
thousands of Onishans, to the bushiest
world, and the Inst Sunday service wm
closed with the benediction of the Bleeawf"
Sacrament.
In closing the old cathedral. Plseof
Besnnell said:
"All things external to God are even,
changing. While we see this old church
pass away, and this snot become the homt
of large business houses, the faith wliloh
gave rise to it and Inspired those who have
worshiped In It, has never changed. It la
the faith which brings us together, ami
unites to" the past, aa it will unite us
to the future. It Is the faith which never
changes and never can change. God and
his truth remain whllo material things
change all about them."
Bishop Scannell told the people of St.
Phllomena'a that a nw church would
probably be erected on the south side 6t
the viaduct for the people who live in that
part of the city, and who will be a good
ways from the new St. Cecilia's cathedral,
at Eighteenth and Burt streets. The bishop
said no plana had yet been made for the
new church on th south side, but that
the needs of the people would bo deter
mined and what the people needed would
be built. The parish of St. Philnmena's
will retain Its unity, with Father Mc
Gove'rn and ; Father Stenson as pastors.
Members of the parish will move to th
church of St.. Mary Magdalene, at Nine
teenth and Dodge streets, until definite
plans are made for th new church or
other arrangements made.
Four Mass Ar Saltl.
The last Sunday Service In old St. Phllo
mena's will be as long remembered as th
day It was dedicated, March IS. IKS. Th
four masses held Sunday morning were
impressive, and four audiences were . in

presence here with us, as we hava seen

you do there will come' a day when full

within the laws of . the state, get In so
deep that restitution ; is Impossible. If
money Is mad unjustly, H Is a sin. and
the sin of Injustice destroys society snd Is
an Injury to all men.
I never knew a man who could say at
th tlm of his' death that lils money mede
him a beUer man, wblle on the contrary,
money many times makes men worse then
they would be without U.'
The bishop declared there ware oppor
tunities enough In America for every one'
to mak money and mak It Justly, while
h condemned a moral murder the practice
of giving money to children when they
are at an age wher their moral sense Is
w.eak. and if they one learn that they
must have money to aecur little thing
which they want, they will obtain It, law
fully or unlawfully.'
