An extremely. imeronlng programme of moving pictures was shown at ves- terday’s performances at the Breed theater, beginring with the thrilling “human” picture entitled The Reckon- ing. This picture alope would pay any- one to make the effort to see it. The Angel of Netivity I8 a beautiful leg- endary, picture that is most interesting, and the wonderful dissolving visions that ooccur in it frequemtly are ex- tremmely pleasing. The Madman of the CHE is taken on old French grounds, the scene being laid in the Reign of ‘Terror. The costumes peculiar to that peried are enhanced by the genuine castles and chateaux used in the back- grounds. The dig picture of the programme is mm’ of Hyderabad, éniul, by wing every phase ife pe- culiar ¢o that eountry, including ele- phants, camels, oxen, and the vehicles to accompany the same. ‘The screaming picture, Jones at the Ball n Tight Pants, showed a full- dress reoeption and bdall in progress, and during the ball the moral is shown of wearing tight trousers. Splen attendance is at every per- formance. and Madam Moreele’s bril- Mant waltz song, Huppy Birds, is a dificult and delightful number, es is Mr. Cooper’s fine solo, For All Bterni- ty, rendered by him in fine voice. The pictures will remain for the remalnder of the week. i The Garden Party Has Stage hearsal. All the finishing touches needed to make The Garden Party a huge suc- | oess whe nit has ts first production ‘this evening at the Broedway theater, by the members of Op.ls House and The Halle club, were put dn Thursday evening in a stage rehearsal at Broad- Under the watchful trained eyes of Mr. and Mrs. Roden- baugh, solos and choruses were run ¢through, and in a way that promises a pynoupced success for the local ama- teurs ‘who make up the cast. In the agternoon the children who appear had their rehearsal at the theater, showing that their part of the me will be some of the attractive moments. One feature of the production which no one ought to miss will be to patron- 1z¢ the pretty flower girls who will seil their flowers and the artistic souvenir at the intermission. The proceeds they derive from these will be all for The Halle club, thus furnishing a most convenient way for the friends of the <lub to show thelr special interest and good Wil by purchasing the souvenirs and flowers.

Farre] Mertin, D.D, Waterbury delivered an eloguent course on Temperance in 8t. Mary's church, Derby, on Sunday evening. ‘The speaker related anecdof of his among unfortunate men and 11'0 interesting accounts of his experience. He then dweit upon the history of the movement. In 1651 at Fast Hampton, on Long Island, the first temperance movement was in- sugurated among the farmers there, who sought to stay the ravages which they saw were being mede by intem- rance. In 1665 the citizens of New iven, seeing the dangers in t community, took measures to check the evil, First Temperance Society. The first rea] temperance society in the world was formed in Litchfleld county in 1789, when 200 farmers band- ed together for the purpose of abstain. ing and persuading others to abstain not only from the more ardent drinks but also from cider. * £ This movement grew until it spread all over the United States and then to Burope. Fspecially in Ireland the movement essumed large proportions and & society was organized in Wex- ford county in 1828 for the purpose of turthering the temperance cause. The movement then grew im Seoltand, Eng- land and then even to the wine drink- ing and bdeer drinking countries of Europe. & Work of Father Mathew. About this time Father Mathew, the great temperance missionary, began his work. Father Mathew, in his par- ish work, visited places of weaith and places of poverty, and everywhere he saw the effects of Intoxicants. He went into the places of fiith and into the prisons and saw that intoxicants were the cause of a large percentage of the misery. He then took the pledge himself and began his great work. He came to America in 1849 and during his stay here over §00,000 persons took the pledge and wore ¥ather Mathew's badge. The first Catholic temperance so- ciety was formed in Hartford in 1841, At that time the Washingtonians were about to hold a pawhde and Father Brady concelved the ldea of a great Catholic movement of the same nature. He accordingly organized a society of 104 adults and 40 young boys. The Domninican government has de- cided to malntain a small, but com- plete displ of the products of this country at’ their consulates in New York, Hamburg, Genoa, Paris, London, Bareclona and Havre. This would in- clude cabinet woods, fibres, cereals and tobacco. ASTORIA For Infants and Children.

A project hés been laid befors the state legislature of Rio Geande do Sui, Brazil, authorizing the government to indorse the issue of a oan of $200,~ 000 gold by the municipality of Porto Alegre for the further improvement of the water supply, electsic lighting and markets for the city. While there is an abundance of suit- able timber in Brasil it is difficult to find many districts wheres the trees suitable for lunber are close enough together for profitable work. Traus- portation causes much diffloulty, often making it imposesible to tram Em logs to a mill or lumber to a market. The mineral production of the Uni« ted States has more than doubled in value during the last ten years. Dur- ing the same period the value of our farm produets has Increased only 65 per cent.
