Laying of the Corner Stone of the Catholic High School Yesterday Afternoon — The Exer cises Conducted by the Most Rev. J. J. Kain, Archbishop of St. Louis—A Parade of Catholic So cieties of the City- Many Clergy Present— Admirable Address of Dr. W ingerter—The New Struc* turo. The corner stone of the new Catholic high school building was blessed and placed in position yesterday afternoon. The ceremony was simple but impres sive, and the demonstration by Catholic societies, which formed a portion of the exercises, was of a most imposing char acter. The Most Rev. J. J. Kain, Arch bishop of St. Louis, and former Bishop of Wheeling, conducted the ceremony and mad - a short address: and an ad dress on behalf of the iaity was made by Ur. Charles A. Wingerter. The exercises commenced promptly at 4:30 o’clock. The ceremony proper the banks of the Mississippi for the banks of the Ohio—vou want to be in unison with your f How citizens throughout the country. You see already laid, the foun dation'for this new structure, which is to give to your boys educational advan tages not granted to their predecessors. I know all was done that counld be done, in the old building, and that the boys who received instruction there are to-day among your foremost citizens. But as we are MOVING FORWARD in other lines, education must keep abreast, in order that your boys may be peers of their fellow citizens in every walk of life. I will give you the guaran tee of my word that the work here has b<u-n placed in competent hands. You will all be proud of the school under charge of ! the Xavarlan Brothers. In order that the work may go on with the giant strides | i which your Bishop so desires, you must j l> nd your co-operation, not only financial ly—because it Is through your liberality that the school must be built and sus tained—but by your support and encour j agement. “Therefore, as your former Bishop, and ! e? one who is still devoted to you. I ask ; you to always give generous aid to those who are engaged in this noble work. You have training elsewhere, so far as the mind is concerned, but something is lack ing in this, for not only must be devel oped our physical and mental energies, but also the soul which God has placed in every man. Religious instruction must be made part and parcel of our education. Because it is lacking In the education which is furnished gratuitously, the 1 ! Church establishes these institutions. «"If the republic continues to be pros perous, we must have a religious people. Christian children must be trained in , their fa it 1).

KrIu, of St. I.ouis. was prec Jed by parade of • ith olic organizations. The societies formed in line at St. .vlphensus church, and moved north on Market to lwc’f h, to Koff, to Fourteenth, io Byron. 1 he hue was made tip as follows: Hackvtt Band, of Bt llaire. Knights of St. George ot St. Alphonsus Church. Young Men's Society of St. Alphonsus. St. Alphonsus Society. Knights of rh. George of Uenwood. Liberty Band. St. Ladhdaus S«c > ty of St. Mary s Church.

Th- marchers all wore uniforms or regal a, and each organization carried a silk hag and banner. They marched , with precision, and many compliment ary remarks were made by the cio«Js upon the sidewalks, which weic un usually large fer Sunday aft moon. The column reached Byron street at tne hour appointed for the exercises to be gin. . THE EXERCISE*. The foundation for the new structure is almost completed. A platform was erected on the corner of Byron and Fourteenth streets, upon which cnairs iwere placed for the clergy. The pla:- i form was covered by an ornamental canopy, which was decorated with silk , Am or’can flags. The rain began to fall when the throng had assembled, but all stood during the exercises, which con tinued about one hour. Byron and Four-tenth streets were crowded, the number of persons present being esti mated at 2.300 to 3,000. At 4 30 o’clock the procession of clergy and acolvtes, all attired in their vest m. proceed 'd fro#: the Episcopal res irlence. Among me cieigj Archbishop. Re v.

Fathers Clem nts and Leo. of St. Aiphonsus Church; j Mr Weber, of Sr. Mary’s Seminary, Hal- i t ini ore: and Rev. Father Plomondon, the recently appointed chaplain at Mt. de Chantal. When all had taken their places upon the platform, and a spirited selection had been rendered by one of the bands, R-v. Father ’Boutlou asked for order, and Archbishop Kain stepped io the front of the platform and made a br.ef j address. He said: A BP. K AIN’S REMARKS. “The overhanging clouds warn rru that mv remarks must be brief. It is well, on rhu -lusnlclous occasion, that I should say , few worVls.

The .-ton? was then placed/ in position. It bore no inscription, but in a cavity was the usual copper box. The contents of the box, in addition to the articles and documents mention ed in Saturday's Register, were as fol lows: Copies of La Croix. La Gael, Tha Nail City, and the Register and other Wheeling papers; a copy of t'he Wheel ing Tri-Weekly Times and Advertiser. Vol. 4. No. 4. of date April 4. 1837; first volume complete of the Church Calen dar; coins, including all the pennies from 1X59 to 1x93; many documents of historical inter, s:. both local and na tion..!; photographs of R. V. Whelan, J. J. Kain, and P. J. Donahue, the first three Bishops cf Wheeling. After the brief ceremony, the address on behalf of the laity was made by Dr. C. A. Wingerter. It was a splendid effort, both as a composition ami deliv ery. I: was scholarly, logical, thought ful. and the gifted speaker held the un divided attention cf the dhrong during the half hour he was speaking. When he concluded he was warmly congratu lated by many upon the platform. It. is regretted that a lack of space necessi tates the publication of extracts only from the address. DR. WINGERTER’S ADDRESS. After introductory remarks, in which he dwelt upon the significance of the ceremony of laying the corner sqone, Dr. Wingerter said: “We have reaped so much of human knowledge that the storehouse of no one man's mind can any longer hold it all. So be it; It is well. Let knowledge grow from more to more. Let the sehols wherein it it is taught multiply over the land, and may they be crowded with aspirants anx ious to partake of this wealth of learn ing. The youth of to-day is the heir of till the ages, and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth and my right hand f irget its cunning ere T strive to withhold from that youth one iota of the birthright he shares with me. The present age and every past century that has loved knowl edge'ami sought for it have done well, for knowledge und the thirst for knowledge are good, both come from God. And yet, —and yet. there is a thought that ever comes to give us pause. Is all this sec ular knowledge the great thing, the im portant thing after all? Jhe reason of every thoughtful, earnest man will whis per to hint No.' Mind you. I have no de sir- to minimize in any degree the worth of all this worldly knowledge. In the school house here to he built. It will be cherished and taught and taught anew. It will be held at its true worth her*1 as mueh as It is so hold anywhere In this great land. But it will not be unduly magnified to bide the greater worth of more precious knowledge beyond it. The training of the mind and hand In all the branches of knowledge that fit a youth to cope, on an equal footing with his fel lows. In the great struggle of life in thl!J busv land and tireless age of ours, will hi this school ho most ardently pursued. Hut It will he supplemented by 8 knowl edge that is as far above worldly knowl edge ns heaven Is above earth. In this school moral education will be eon sal- red •>- not less necessary than Intellectual ed ucation. In this school, as In another, ♦he youth wilt l>e offered every advantage to perfect himself in the wisdom and learning of men; he will he urged to re.i( h out and take the world of knowledge that his forefathers have gained for him. But he will be ever told to renumber t at knowledge is a means and not the end. he will be taught over to ask hlm> ‘‘ y1* question: What doth it profit. \\ hat doth ft nroflt man If h»‘ tfain tilt* whol** wor 1 u lor- hlr rool~ Tho ™,.l and its destiny: there is the gnat suu ject of knowledge." Continuing, he argued tha: ntere ?ec ular education i* m°re ofien ? than a blessing, and he quoted We.nng toa—“Educate msn without religion. and you make them clever devils. He showed the infinite folly of the idea that knowledge is good for a man re gardless of the use he is likely to*make of it, and in this connection he made reference to the book recently published by Hon. M. D. Post, of this city, and gave illustrations from recent newspa per history. He asserted that the reac tion is doming, and that great minds are beginning to realize that religious and secular education should not be di vorced. He quoted Archbishop Ireland —“The salvation of America is the rec ognition of God and of His Church’’— and commenting said: THE CHURCH AND EDUCATION. “Do you begin to see why the Catholic Church has fought for the principle that the moral education of the children must go hand In hand with the Intellectual? Do you understand at lust why she has carried that banner to the front through good report and through evil report? She has been falsely charged with being the enemy of the nation's schools la-cause like a true physician she has laid her finger on the canker that threatens to destroy the life of their usefulness to the nation. She has been charged with being in league with the enemy, because, like a faithful sentinel on the watch tower, she has pointed out the way through which the enemy Is seeking to make an attack. Put, like the true mother that she is, she does what she can to ward off the evil herself, crying out: ‘Revile me if you will, only spare my little ones.’ So long as the nation's schools are built on the slipping sands of a false philosophy, she will con tinue to build her own schools on the adamantine rock of the great truths which alone can bear them up. She will continue to cry out that the first lesson the child should lx* taught Is the lesson of the catechism; God made us and grants us knowledge that we may know Him. love Him and serve Him in this world and be happy with him forever in the next. To her mind that Is the Sutnma of all knowledge. Who lias not learned that has wasted his life even If he has absorbed all the learning of all the scholars and of all the schools of all the world. Knowledge cannot be rightly used except in the light of that great truth. Religion, which means the relation that man bears to God. is thi’ corner stone of true education. The growing child must be steeped in the wisdom of God and the tilings of God.’ The speaker answered the statement frequently made,.that religious education can be properly imparted at home, by showing its fallacy. On this subject he said: AN ELOQUENT APPEAL. u mouiers, if mere is in you a spans ui the fire of mother-love; as you recall the fond yearning with which you waited the coming Into the world of the promised one; as you recall that great peace and jov that came over you when yon h* ard the thrilling first cry of the new born babe; as you recall those tears of joy that you shed when clasping the little toddler to your bosom after some wild peril had been escaped; ns you recall the anguish with which you gazed on the pinched baby face during some spell of blighting Illness, or that glad comfort with which you welcomed the laughing caresses In the happy days when all went well; as yon retail all these things that help you to realize how dear your little ones are to you. tell me if you think th ir peace of n ind in this world and their ent<anal h'inpiness In a world to come are so triv ial as to be left to the chance of their picking up somehow and somewhere and from somebody the knowledge that should be your chief solicitude? “And you. O fathers, who glory in the growing strength of your sons and the budding beauty ol your daughters, its you recall the complacent pride with which you watched the tokens of sturdy manli ness and intelligence and courage in the one, or tin ■ . rn.lng tr; its ol >'■'••• ' wo manliness In the other, tell me. would you not scorn to leave their greatest happi ness on the hazard of a die? Anti yet what else arc you doing If you leave these tender buds of non and women to grow up. unsheltered from the blighting wind er Ir-religion. unproteot* d from tin gaudy, wlth'-ring Immorality that beats upon them from every side? 1 you think that they are absorbing religion on the street corners, from the tempting I. >ok-stalls. In the gaiety of the dance ha 1. from the modern theatre? If you would have your brave boys grow Into men who fear God. and are not afraid of cannon, then look to It. that they are taught God. If vou would have your daughters blos som Into the (lowers ol true womanhood, crowned with that Illy virtue without which their honor and your own lives will be blasted, then look to It. that re ligion and morality are taught them everv dav. not once n week; see to it that they' be taught in the schools where the training of the heart is deemed as Import ant as the training of the mind: where re ligion and moral education are as much a part tif the curriculum as the Intellectual. "And you. my fellows all. who love your country’as you do your lives, and wish to it ‘continue to hold Its place as the highest tvpe of government that man has vt evolved, .as vou think of tills corner stone that has been laid to-day Im-t th.it the induration which it t> pines, the education which alone can assure prl vat.- and public virtue, is the corner stone of the republic. Take that away and the commonwealth will crumble down upon you.” . . t . In conclusion, Dr. Wmgerter pointed out the duty cf the presen; hour—to help >ho cause of true education, by aiding in the erection of the school building. ORGAN RECITAL. Mr. Paris R.

Results of Sunday Games In the National ond Western Longues Gossip ALout Base Ball and Other Sport—Amateur Contes's—Gen eral Sporting Matters,Local and by Wire. The Saginaw club opens a series of three games at the Island park this af ternoon, and there is certain to be an exhibition of “scrappy” ball, which will prove interesting. Saginaw has been playing a fairly good game in the East, but Wheeling Should have no trouble in taking two of the three games. It was reported yesterday that first baseman Whaling was to be suspended, but this was not verified. He will not play ia this afternoon's game, however, and last night he could not throw any light on the matter. Haller will diold down the initial bag. There has been a shak ing up in the team, as the following ous ting order, which was given ou. offi cially last night, indicates: Violet, left; Thurston, second; Shaw, catcher; Galla gher, center; Kobinscn, third; Haller, first; Whaley, short; KaDe, right; Ba ker and Garvey, pitchers. Al. Wagner is very sore over his sus pension, which the management claims was done on account of insubordination. He will probably go up to bis home near Pittsburg to-day. As soon as the team arrived home from Barnesville, Wag ner received a> telegram from George Tebeau, asking raim to join the Farm ers at Youngstown, if possible. Wag ner s'ated last night that • he would rather play ball in Wheeling than in any city he has ever visited, but he is not anxious to continue with if.ie local club. He was farmed to Wheeling by A. C. P.tirkenberg r, manager of the Toronto Eastern League club, and Wagner will appeal to “Buck” to see ilia; he is per mitted to play ball somewhere. Last night the local management re leased both Wagner and Whaling, the two players who are alleged to have caused the trouble at BarnesviP . The former asked for'his release, and got i:. Haller, who has officiated as umpire in the last eight or ten games on t home grounds, has beer, signed to captain th? team, ami play first. Haller is a good man for the position.
