DR. STONE SPEAKS ON
THE MORAL AWAKENING
Declares Revolt Against'
Graft Began During |
McKinley's Time :
CONDEMNS MONOPOLY
Labor and Capital Violating
Principles of Govern
ment, He Says
Dr. Georse W. Stone, field secretary
for the Pacific coast of the American
Unitarian association, occupied the pul
pu yeeterday ir.ornSns in the First Uni
tarian church. Hi? eerrcon was in the
nature of a farewell address, as he had
resigned from his position and was to
leave the coast for a tirae. Dr. Stone
choc* for his subject "The Moral Awak. i
tning." Speaking on the text, 'Turn'
and Do Justice." he *ai4 In part;. . j
"The moral awakening began at the \u25a0
time of President McKJnley with the
revolt against class legislation and ;
favoritism. The great combination*
of capital had gradually, developed;
a consciousness that they Trere
stronger than the law and relied upon;
their friends in office to protect them
in their prerogativec Meanwhile, ,the
wage earrere, who. as a class, lt\t more
directly than others the oppression of
monopoly, began to organize for de- j
fense. . \u25a0• • .._,.'.' . I
So long a« they held this position
they had the cordial support of the
public, but they then developed a mo
nopoly of labor- So we have two mo
nopolies. The first oppresses the capi
tal which it does not control, the sec
ond oppresses the labor which it does
not control. Whatever their profes
sions,'in practice they openly, defy tha
fundamental. principles upon which free
government rests. • >
"The assassination of McKinley was
the result of fanaticism that ! was a
natural outgrovrth of intolerable con
ditions. The horror which it caused
brought in its wajte a great moral
awakening. ,The windows of legislative
houses were thrown open and the
fresh air of public opinion was allowed
to blow through it- -Then began rev«
latior.s of graft- It "was a. new word,
but expressive. ...... -"- : '•'--'
"In this moral awakening "business
practices! social standards, : even re
ligious Qoctrines. found a day -of Judg
ment. The* eld theology which taught
thaf works did not*count for Justifica
tion and that personal righteousness
had no saving powers in the world' to
come was responsible for the inbred,
deep seated error that raan could ba re
ligious without being moral. ;-.-;>;
"There is a. raarked difference be
tween this moral awakening and . the
religious revival. The latter appeals
mainly to the emotions and makes
good works a by product, whil«_the
chief thing is a policy of insurance
against fire in another world. The
moral awakening appeals to the com
mon sense, not to the emotions. It
reaches all classes, whether interested
in, religion or not, and it brings, a
realization that prosperity must de
pend upon the observance of the 'laws
which God has laid down for the guid
ance of relations of individas-ls In the
social body."
\u25a0 Pr. Stone has occupied his position
here for seven years. During his in
cumbency the number of Unitarian
churches in his district has been*in
creased from 15 to 25. and . all the
churches have been freed from debt-.
Dr. Stone will visit his chilren in the
east for some time and may return to
th-e coast after a vacation. An infor
mal reception will be given this eve
ning In his honor by the society . for
Christian work, which is. affiliated, with
the First Unltariwi church. '

Artist Peixotto's Interpretation of Histdritai Places
Wins ' Praise of AH Who Have^ Viewed His Paintings
Hanna Astrup Larsen
I had watched Ernest Peixotto super
intend the hanging of hla pictures of
Italian and French gardens. While we
looked at them together he. had told
meHttle bits of history connected with
the places portrayed.. Then ho • had
rushed off to catch his boat The work
ers were through for the day. The
women who had been viewing the pic
tures had gone to keep; their, dinner en
gagements. The perfect quiet tempted
me to linger a few moments. I tucked
away ray notes and with them, the con
sciousness of what I. would" say- In ; to
morrbw's art column, and leaned back
for a bit of lonely communion with the
pictures.
It was then that the real atmosphere
of them began to steal into my mind-
I had admired them, of course, as tj^ny
one at all sensitive to beauty In any
form must admire them. My critical
sense had seen the finished workman
ship, the almost downy softness of the
foliage, the skillful treatment of the
architectural details which were well
defined without being photographic the
brilliancy of the colors which never be
came garish, the fine restraint which
runs . through all Peixotto's work. I
saw and appreciated. But I' am not
fond of gardens, if the 1 truth were told.
The clipped trees . make me want \to
push them away and see if there Is
anything on the other side. 'The dogs
and lions In their stony - semblance of
life have never in my mind been able
to establish their relationship .with the
outdoors. ' and the maidens that stand
on Nbalustrades or In fountains never
roused other emotions ln.me.than the
desire to cover them up against the
rigors of the climate. .^ In fact, 111 1 had
liked the "Stone Pines" of the. Villa
Borghese better than, anythingelse In
the because, the \u25a0 trees . In
their natural growth •of "their twisted
reddish brown stems and their frlngy
tops reminded m« of "wild places I had
be«n to" and. the view overr'the pur
plish hill with a bit of the Casino in
among them gave the imagination a
chance to skip over "Peixotto's well
handled distances to all manner of "de
lightful • fantasies. . :-, r . \u25a0
But In the hour when daylight was
creeping from the corners I and still
lingered softly over ,th© pictures,
while it was preparing to go away
altogether in. the stillness so- unaccus
tomed in the heart of the city.-jt
seemed natural that the 'spirit, of the
old. gardens should;. creep over the
senses 'like a, languorous fragrance.
The; stiff clipped hedges and the
walled terraces became like~ the cor
seted and crinolined- .figures of the
belles whose light feet "danced on the
edge of the dark chasm of the French
revolution. Like the J stiff," unbeautiful
lines, the powder and .patches \u25a0' of
pretty women, that clipped and hedged
landscape became Instinct with the
charm of an artiflclalty that accentu
ates' nature.
It was the hour when the maidens of
the hoop and patches* might revisit
their old-haunts and: dream -beneath
the falling leaves, of knights fighting
the battles of the outside world.; which
the maidens did not share in those
days, and when the leaves of summer
bowers. might stir with words of whis
pered love. . There was a : "Lady of - the
Watt?au gown", walking | through a
picture, trailing her gown : of flowered
ehlmmering silk brushing lightly the
greensward, a poor of gray-blue. water
untouched. by v the ripple,^ gathering girl
and garden, trees and clouds within its
bosom, while far away;'a' pale white
grVup of : statues .veiled In a misty
distance "'threw the "living, .'breathing
figure of the girl j into | the j foreground.
For the " rest the gardens ' mustV-be
peopled by. the : Imagination. "A-Ton
nelle," Compiegne. is a picture of the
arbor which Napoleon \i built : for- the
Empress Josephine •In ; memory of • her
southern home. • Framed *In - the green,
leafy, tunnel there Is .a stretch '< of i gar

was very; easy ;to - fancy the . empress
trailing • the '\u25a0, lacy gowns she >: loved
over the walk and pausing to : pick; tffe

myriads of. famous people 1 have walked

LESSON OF DISASTER!
Sermon Deals With Spirit

where tb« parish qJ St. Fr&nci& usod
to , gather .and drawing with \Xs rold&n
cross the . "S'arsiilpers from afar was
thronged yesterday :, afternoon, wh»n
Archbishop JUordan administered tha
sacrament of confirmation to a class
Qf>.fcoyB and. gtfls, The candles o{ Uu

and'on the. walls the pictures reprevsst
: ing the sta,**? of the cxuciflsion save.
itQ .the -plain : tacjpQrary building Us
character as x house aJ worship.
'The religious spirit which does not
depend upoo* stately domes, hut ts as
! strong In the humblest surroundings,
\u25a0 formed. the burden Qt the archbishop's
; address and gained added impressive'
mess from tha scene. The clas? num
• bere,<l 11? end was almost as large aa
i the. confirmation classes In the y«»rs
I hefore ; the fire. ' The procession of
; children passing out after the conclu*
; sion of the ceremony reached from tha
I altar to the door, and the brlsrht youns
faeea with the white dreases and veil*
of the girls formed a picture as beau
tiful as could have graced the church
in the days of its prime.
The archbishop said in ; part:
-' "TW« is a day. to be. remembered as
the first conQrmatlon held t^ thia
church. .The worship of heart*, is, Ju^t
as gracious in'the of the : m*«ter
in lowly placas as when surrounded
by pomp. We must never foryet'the
humble »urroundlngrs in which Josus
lived and worked. The disaster showed
how easy it was for mortal things to
decay., while it could not touch the
spirit- We lirow that wherever two or
three are. together in Gad's name, be is
with them. ' - •
*?The whole object of thU life should
.'be a. preparation for tie life to came.
;W« ari too wea& of ourselves to turn
into the path that leads to heaven and
must call ' upon- almighty God to help
u» with his- divine • grace. It is -not
an easy life, but a constant warfare.
We must strive to live as in the pres
ence of God aad remembering that he
see* everything- we 4q and knows aU
our thoughts."
The archbishop, admonished the cWN
Qr*ii : to • observe daily prayer- and the
sacraments and to set apart for re
ligious observance Sunday, which was,
he» said, often made a day of dissipa
tion and violation of God's law. He ex
horted the' parents and aU thQse present
to. realize their obligation to keep the
children In the path which they had
begun to tread.
Father Caraher. the : rector of tlw
church, spoke a few words of admoni
tion to the children. -The priests at the
altar were Archbishop Rlardan, cele
brant of the pass;, father Qantweil.
present in the sanctuary, and assisting
in* the 1 conflrmatlon; Father Nugent of
St. Rose parish, deacon; Father Piper
ny~ot St Vincent de Paul's church, sub~
deacon, and Father McGough, bavins
