THE SCR ANTON TIUUUJSE-FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1800. EVENTS OF DAY IN WESTJCRANTON ADDRESS ON LINCOLN'S "LIFE AND CHARACTER." Dolivorod by D. W. Phillips Last Night to tho Members of Washington Camp, No. 178, P.

Phillips, ox-(list! let president of the order, on "The Life and Cham-let of Abraham Lincoln." During the cot'rse of I1I3 rempiks th Hpenker said "Pebruary Is most fortunate month far as birthdays lire concerned. For It wan In thit month that the two grandest men In American hl-tory woro born characters that stand out In bold relief from tho rest of the insignificant personages that surround them. "Abrahum Lincoln wni born mi tho 12th of February, ISO The first seven years of his life were spent on Hock Spring farm In Hardin county. Kentucky. 'Chainctcr Is the mirror th.it exhibits man's true life anil his (lag of defense In times of public opinion.

So It Is with delicacy that I reflect on the character of tho illustrious Abraham Lincoln, the redeemer of our country. The predominating elommts of Lincoln'? peculiar character were: Klist, lilr great capacity and power of reason, secondly, his excellent understanding, thirdly, his evalted Idea of the seiie of light and equity, fourthly, his Intense veneration lor what was Ifood and noble. "I know It Is generally believed that Lincoln's heart, his love and kindness, 111- tenderness and benevolence, vvete I1I3 ruling qualities; but this Is an erroneous Idea in every particular. He lived, breathed and actid from the throne of logic, the place ot pMnclple and deity In man. From this point Lincoln's life must be viewed; his views were cornet and oiiglnnl "As.

Washington stands alone In hls-toiy for freedom, so stands Abraham Lincoln for humanity, and on bis htow the world has placed such an immortelle for his human heart by stroke of pen make millions of piopcrty men." The next will be given by J. Archie Jones tome time next month. CONCERT AT ST. DAVID'S. The Hoys' chapter of St.

Moss Investigated nnd discovered a communication between the stables and the roof of tho parsonage. The rats nightly Invaded the house, jumped down on the celling, used the bell wires us paiallel bars, lung the bells, squealed, moaned, nnd If nlarmed lushed away like frightened sheep One night Mr. Moss was aioused by Ills mother.

Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for la grippe we have yet to learn of a single case having tesulled In pneumonia which shows conclusively that this remedy Is a certain preventive of that dangerous disease. It will cure la grippe In less time than any other treatment. It is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by all druggists. Matthews wholesale and letall agents.

VARYING VIEWS. What Work or Event of the Century Is Most Important A Uerlln paper opened a wide and Intel estlng field tor discussion by asking, "What work, or what event, of the nineteenth century Is of the most importance''" In Germany, very na tut ally, the most answeis favor the foundation of thu German empire by Rlsmatck. Next In ouler of numlwrs come those who believe thnt the Darwinian theoiv Is the most imcortnnt contribution to the oi id's knowledge and is entitled to occupy first place. Then opinions take on manv hues, some standing up for the discovers of chlotoform and others for some particular discovery In the field ot astronomy. Along a line entirely distinct Is the suggestion of Mi.

Suttner.who votes for the czar's manifesto, while her husband, who must be a shallow-pated man, suggests the Drej fus affair. Many women consider the "woman movement" In general the most important development of the centurj, which Is not so bad. We nie most surprised that the corn-met clal of electricity did not receive precedence. It Is of inoie Ini-pottnnce to humanity than the unification of Germany, which may not he at all permanent, or the Darwinian theory, which, us a well-established theory, Is still rejected by some ablo scientists. Rut the field Is open for guesswork and people with hobbles will favoi their hobbles.
