The Rev. John A. Lvons. virar p-ensral of the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington, lectured neiore Ihe Miields Library Association at their rooms in the Smith Building last night upon "Spirit Lands." In the conrss cf his lectnre the nrearher said in part; A trip to the spirit world is one B3t often undertaken. It a visit which people generally do not like to make.

This dillidence does not arise from the distance of iue spirit land or ot the difficulties of the journey, but from the general! v-accepted be-l ef that the spirits first to be met on such a trip are the enemies of mankind and pofsess superhuman power to lure them to destruction. Superstition lias invaded this land and woven Un ghoulish fancies into blond stones of midnight incidents, graveyards and skeletons until religion and skepticism alike condemns and ridicules the stories and the story-tellers. These stories and the iird ideas arising from them intelligent neonln jsct of spiritual existence and credit to the iorces 01 tne pnysical universe phenomena which clearly belongs to the influence and power of the inhabitants of snirit land. skepticism has gone so far as to reiect the belief in the existence of God and tn iln authority of the chnrch. These are the worst Iruits of superstition and irreligion.

The spirit world is not far awatr. hut nsr at hand. Mankind has been intimately ciated with it from the besinnintr." Thn spirit world is first, iust as God. who is a spirit, was before and created man. Angels are spirits, fur the glorv of God, they served Him until the natures, with which they were of necessity endowed, put a portion of them ia rebellion and alienation from Him.

They were free acents. and em subject to trial. What that trial was no one knows. It is said there was war in Heaven. A portion of its inhabitants rahIIH God and were can out.

These are the evil spirits which affect men. They are still angels. Their nower and inflnsnMi nnt abridged: only subject to God. Tbev wase continuous war against men. Tho simplest devil in hell is wiser than the holiest of men, and the tiniest fellow there could play snow- witn tne great worlds ot the universe.

It is useless to deny the pviklsn, The phenomena of ancient and modern spiritualism presents facts that cannot be accounted for except by a belief in good and bad spirits. The athers of the Church teach ns that man was created with an angelic natnre, and was intended to reniace the fallen aneroid in Heaven. Knowledge of this intention of God caused the devils to attack nm with all tl snper-humau power. One-third of the in habitants of Heaven had been cast ont, and being powerless to injure their loyal vent their spite mankind' as proof of their enmity toward God. We are taught that God fives His irnnd charge over us.

ur good angel follows us all through onr lives is always by our side to encourage, protect and help us. Onr greatest mis-fortune would be to offend or diive them away. One of these is more powerful than all the devils of hell. The l'ast of them could hnrl all the inhabitants of hell back to their pritocs. Let us Wieref ore pray to them and obev them thn iukspii.

Despatch From the Explorer Dated at Mpwapa. London, Nor. 21. Mr. Mackinnon, bead of the Eniin Pascha Relief Committee, has received a cahle despatch from Henry M.

Stanley announcing his arrival at Mpwapa and staling that he expects to reach Zanzibar in four or five days. Mr. Stanley's despatch states that he has made the important discovery that there is an extension of Lake Nyassa. The British consul at Zanzibar telegraphs to the foreign office as follows: "Stanley arrived at Mpwapa on the fiftv-fifth day after his departure from the Victoria Nvanza and tbe 188th day after leaving the Albert Nyanza. "In addition to the names already telegraphed, Stanley has with him Hoffmann, Emin's daughter, and Fathers Grault and Schinze of the Algerian mission.

Stanley left Mpwapa on tbe 12th, travelling toward the coast by way of Kemba and Mwemi. Stanley nude an unexpected dis covery of real value in finding an extension of the Victoria Ntanza toward the southwest. The utmost southerly reach of the extension is sonth latitude two degress, forty-eight minutes. This brings tbe Victoria Nyanza wi'hin 155 miles of Lake Tanganyika. The area of the extension is 20,900 square miles.

According to further advices received by the Foreign Office, Stanley has with him 750 persons, of whom 2'JO are Emin's followers. I here are also 60 children in the nartv. Stanley lost only 18 men during the march from the Victoria Nyanza. He had four days' fighting near I'snkama. The expedition is expected to arrive at Bagamoyo in a fortnight.

The Brazilian Republic Takes an Im portant Step. Rio Janeiro, Nov. 21. The provisional government has irsued a decree establishing universal suurage inrongnont tne republic. Washington, Nov.

21. Dr. Valente, minister from Brazil, called at tho State Department to-day and informed the secretary that his latest advices from Brazil were to the effect that peace and tranquility reigned, and that the new government was receiving tbe support of the people. Dr. Valente also received this morning authority from the provisional government to instruct the representatives of Brazil to the International American Congress to continue to act for their country ia th sessions of the congref Min ister alentc instructions cover also bis own relations to the provisional government.

He is directed to continue to act as minister from Brazil to the United States. Australia as a Republic. Chicaoo, Nov. 21. Albert Boulton of Albnry, Australia, is in the city.

To a re porter he said: "The project of consolidating the Australian continent into one powerful state is slowly but surely gaining gronnd. witbin two years a definite plan for founding the new nation will be forwarded to the Colonial Office for the indorsement of the Crown. Before long, and without the slightest commotion in England or in Australia, the mother country will see this great grono of her colonies into the new nation of the United States of Australia. Like yoar country, Australia will be practically free from an invasion. Her people have already shown a desire to be supreme in the Pacific, which cannot be gratified nnless her government possesses means of dependencies not admitted to political equality.

New Guinea alone is a kingdom in area, and rightfully belongs to Australia. As an independent republic Australia will be a mighty maritime poaer. She is to settle and govern the only valuable possession which England has left for the next conquering power." Canada as a Republic. New York, Not. 21.

A Montreal special says: Apropos of Brazil, quite a number of i rench papers, including La Patnc, Le Lec- tenr, Canadien Evenement. declare this morning in favor of a Canadian republic. The Herald of this city, the chief organ of the Dominion opposition, sajB that the English people are slow to make constitutional changes, but adds that it is unsafe to say what the force of example and the increasing intercourse of Great Britain and America, backed by the further blackguardism of persons in high positions, might do. It would of conrse make no difference whatever to Canada were the English monarchy to give place to a republic beyond tbe impetus that Mich a change might give to the train of thought that leads a thinker to the conclusion that it is nearly time Canada busied herself about her own independence. Australia, which is a baby among nations, is already considering the propriety of establishing an nation.

Charles A. Brandt, who lived at No. 216 Madison street, was horribly mangled and instantly killed at the works of Hilles Jones, Ninth and Church streets, at 2 45 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Brandt, with a gang of men, was engaged in putting in position a new riveting machine weighing twenty tons in the upper boiler shop. The machine was elevated over a pit about five feet deep, and it was resliag on large planks and blocks.

The blocks became wet and slippery by the rain which came through the windows. Braudt and his men were going to leave the machine rest until this morning, and he was standing on one of the arms of the machine. He said to a fellow workman that it was dangerous to go ahead with the work nntil the rain ceased. He then stepped backwards, and as lie did so one of the blocks slipped from nnder the machine, and the large arm on which he was standing struck him in the breait. He was thrown to the ground and the entire machine fell upon him.

He was struck with such force that his shoulders was bnried deep in the earth. Instant death followed. The workmen from all over the factory ran to his assistance, and in half an hour had the remains removed from nnder the machine. He was so badly mangled that he was hardly recognizable. Wesley Bartly, one of the men working with Bcandt, was struck with a piece of falling timber, but escaped serious iiijory- Dr.

David W. Maull was sent for, but when he arrived his services were not required. Deputy Coroner William H. Lee visited tbe scene shortly after the accident and ordered the man's body removed to his home. Undertaker Daniel T.

Kilroy arrived at the factory about 4 o'clock and took charge of the body. Brandt leaves a wife, fonr sons and two married daughters. One of the sons is also married. Brandt will be buried on Monday morning at 9 o'clock, at the Pro-Cathedral of St. l'eter, with high mass.

He was 58 years of age, ani always considered an upright and Bober man. KILLED AT THE WEST YARD. Joseph Bonseil of Philadelphia Meets With a Sad Death. Joseph Bonseil, a freight conductor on the W. railroad, was killed at the West Yard about 11 30 o'clock last night.

The crew of the train were making it up and one of the brakemen was coming from the top of a car to uncouple it when Bonseil, who was on the ground, said: "Never mind, I will uncouple it." He stepped between the cars and some manner fell. He was crushed across the stomach, but was not mutilated. The engine was stopped and the conductor brought to the hospital room of the W. B. station, where Dr.

J. A. Drapfr attended him. The injured man lived about twenty minutes, but was unconscious. Deputy Coroner Barnhill was summoned and removed the botiy to the morgne.

It will be sent to Philadelphia, where the deceased lived, as soon as an inquest ia held. Bone)l was about 35 years of age. It is not known whether he leaves a family. Fatal Fait In a Ship's Hold. The Chester Times last night had the following: "Hello boys, how long are yon going to work to nighf!" Twas the cheery voice of William F.

Cutler, better known as Frank, that uttered these words to some of his fellow-workmen, as the big whistle at Roach's was blown at 6 o'clock last night, and he started to leave the main deck of the steamship Yumnri. As a voice replied "until o'clock," a dark object was seen to fall down the forward hatch, followed by the sound of a heavv weight striking the bottom of the ship, and Frank Cutler lay in the hold with a broken neck and dying.
