"A correspondent IN the Anamosa
Eureka wades into NJ. G. Woodruff
OF the Waterloo Courier on the
strength Of a labored editorial that
appeared in the .Csrisr OF August 7,
in which the Legislature is assaulted
bitterly Tor taking measures for the
building OF the Anamosa Peniten.
tiary. The correspondent, after Civ.
ing careful reviewof the petitions
presented for ths appointment OF q
commission u = ason some place
for the erection Of penitentlary,
Gays:
"rruly the editor Of the Water.
loo Courier is wonderfully ignorant
Of public, notorious facts, or else
labors under great mistakes; aud
what seems the most wonderful OF
all 70 that one OF the editors OF that
paper IL N. q. Woodruff, and the
Senate Journal ofs1S7O shows that on
March IL, 1872, pages I'll and 272,)
several petitions were presented ask
ing that a branch penitent,ary be
located at the stone quarries in Jones
county, Iowa, and one OF them was
from Siias Lawrence and Is others OF
Delaware Co; another from w. +.
Coan and others Of Clinton Co. a
third from w. II. Peabody and IS
others OF Dubuque County; also one
further from Peter Melendy and 20
others Cedar Falls and last of all
petition from NJ. g. Woodruff and
others OF Iowa Falls, tor the same
object. So it would appear that NJ.
z. Woodruff as editor is mistaken in
his facts. Aud it is now incumbent
on NJ. @. Woodruff to explain how
he il justified in denouncing in the
Waterloo Courier OF August 7th,
1873, the Legislature OF Iowa tor
doing in the session Of 1879, the very
thug which NJ. q. Woodruff and
others pst'tioned the Legislature IN
writing signed by him, to do on
March 10Th, 1910 Two years before.
The Coarier is not one Of the most
consistent papers in the State, bu,
why one OF the editors should make |
such blunders-if the facts set forth |
~ the Eureka corr respondent be true
-is y question whose solution will |
not here be attempted. We have
been considerably delighted to see
The Courier take SO bold a stand
against the erection OF O new .peni.
which was needed about as
bad as is a fifth wheel to a wagon;
but it Is a matter OF regret that the
'enior editor of that paper should be
made to appear so inconsistent.

Last Wednesday the festival of this great
Saint was celebrated With great ceremony in
the church Of her name and patronage High
Mass commenced az o'clock, and the sermon
was preached by, Rev. Father A. j. Ryan, At
present on visit in this city. .s
The musio-Von Weber's brilliant Mass
under the able direction Of Mr. Heichelheiun,
wassbeautifully rendered. Mr.. Miller presided
at the organ, and the choir was crowded with
some of our most talented vocalists, ladies and
lnntlemen. The orchestral accompaniment
| contributed cminently to the brilliancy of the
| effect.
| As to the sermon, it would be useless to at
| tempt sketch of it in the short space at oul
disposal. Its effect was visible in the mar.
vellous stiffness of the crowded audience, &C
many of whom had to stand in the most con
strained and fatiguiug positions.
Father Kenny may well be satisfed with thu
marked devotion of his flock on the festiva
of their beloved patroness. Everything OF
the oeeasion contributed to ita perfect suOcoss-
j the music, the sermon, the majestic Solemnit!
Of the ritual, the dense thrOng Of worshipers
the devout attention of all throughout exer
cises Of more than three hours duration. It i
\ evident that st. Theresa and her beautiful lii
tie church have not Lost their hold on the al

The Saloon Nuisance.

Mayor Wiltz and the other authorities
seem to have gotten the upper-hand, at
last, of the Charities street den which has
90 long bid defiance to the respectable
citizens of that neighborhoOd. For several
years the proprietor of that resort has, by
the orgies Of his establishment, made night
hideous for all the dwellers within reach Of
the tumult of sounds issuing therefrom.
Passers- by on that street could not have
failed, ON any evening, when within two or
three squares Of the corner Of Cont street,
10 be struck with certain Babel-like burst
Of confused noises issuing from that locality.
On nearer approach it would appear to re-
solve itself into kind Of barbaric instru-
mental music accompanying medley OF
shrieks and yells intended for singing. A
stranger, not posted In the ways of the city,
would have ineontinently Get it down for q
VoudOu festival in fRn blast. .H@

were the neighbOrs driven almost frantic
by the unearthly noises which his musiet'
ans were trained to make, but current

Civil suits were brought to sbAte the nuis

[CoHmunicated.I
The Very Rev. Il. Gaud.

In last weeks issue of the I" MORNING STAR"
you announced the death Of the Very Rey. Fa- |
ther Gaud, and gave some details of his public |
life; bat to appreciate duly the character Of
the man and to recognize his loss, an intimate |
acquaintance with his everyday life, were nee
essary.
There are some men who are angels abroad,
but in domestic life are very Troublesome.
Father Gaud was emphatioally not one of this
class, for he never showed TO advantage smong
strangers: his great good qualities were con-
cesled under o very simple exterior. Timids
taciturn, though possessing all the intellec-
tual qualities Of truly distinguished mamie
summed notoriety with more anxiety than
others seek to push themselves into publicity.
An President of the College, he gained, by hiS
mild, gentle, ami&ble manner, the esteem, love,
and respect of his confreres. Ever ready to
perform more than his share of work, he stood
not on his dignity as President. On none Of his
confreres did he impose duty which he would
not execute with the greatest alacrity himself
and which he did not perform when within
| the reach Of possibility. First ct every exer-
else, he preached more by example than by
word. In Father Gaud there was not parti-
ele of selfshness; he forgot self altogether when
|
work. His was assuredly no life of case. Up
to the moment when he was struck down by
tho terrible disease which terminated his life,
he bore the heat and burden of the day with
out complaint, without murmur. Kind, char
liable, amiable towards all, he wac severe only
to himself.
As religious he exhibited in IA eminent de-
gree the perfection OF the state to which God
had called him; every rule he observed with IN
erring regularity so that you could observe
his daily progress in perfection. TrUly it may
be said of him that he " walked before the
Lord,"-whose presence. in all the exercises Of
daily life, he kept constantly before his eyes
The Society of which he was 80 devoted and

Celebration Of Father Matthew'S Anniversary b
the Total Abstinence Associations.

= Last Sunday having oeen selectea ~
the day on which the anniversary Of The
Apostle Of Temperance should be celebrated
tho members Of the several Total Abstinence
Associations in this city repaired to St. Al
phonsus' church, for II o'clock mass, at which
they received Holy Communion. There werc
about $50 members present, each wearing the!
ribbon badge of his association. The Cadets
young boys under seventeen years Of age pre-
vented o fine appearance with their large sill
YER badges and beautiful silk badges, the lat
ter being the work of the Sisters at at. Alphon-
sus, Convent of Mercy. The Rev. Father
Neithart, Celebrant, addressed the congregs-
| ten briefly upon the work undertaken by
| these Societies, and also spoke a few words Of
encouragement to the members. ..-1
In the evening, at 7o'clock, the Rev. Father
Abbot, G. NJ, Of st. Stephens church, leotured
lin Sc. Patrick's church, at the request of the
Union. "
' There was very large congregation present,
very few seats in the large edifce being
empty. In the Sanctuary were Rev. Fathers
Allen, Heslin and Foote, Of St. Patrick's Nc
Kiuiry and Begley, of-the Jesuits'; Kennedy
and J. Moynihan, Jr., of st: Johns; Massar-
der and Finn of st. TheresSs; Briordy, Of st.
Michaels Leyden Of st. Joseph's and ONein
, | OF St. stephens.
Father Abbots lecture, which lasted an hour
and twenty minutes, was most mastery ant
instructive composition, and was spoken with
: an earnestness which gave the highest evidence
0 LOT the great interest which he takes in the 70
Q I preston of the terrible vice Of intemperance
|. And we'll might he speak in burning Swords o
= the'e evils brought on man by too free use
alcoholic liquors, for, he said, he had been Chap
lain at an asylum for inebriates in one Of tn
large Northern cities, for over two year,
y There he had seen the wrecks which hquo
> would, in few short years, make of tb
L strongest constitutions and the most brillisn
Il intellects; how the nobfest Of Gods create
b beings, made to His own image, would ain
y below the level of the brute. Eff
We regret that Misunderstanding has d.
o prived MS of the facilities, upon which we full
In relied, for making . summary Of this splendi
,r lecture. As there is, however, every probi
~ bility of Father Abbot's being soon agai
= called upon to lend his powerful voice and il
. Auence in this noble cause, We will make q
W surance doubly sure in securing full Eepo
20 of his eloquent words.
re After the lecture the 40 Salutaris" or
lie "Tantum Ergo" were sung, and Benedictit
a. of the most Blessed Sacrament was given
at Rey. p. F. Allen.

upon mine OF wealth. ~ y.
But 1t 10 . long lane that has 20 turning,
and finally ramors of foul play, drugging,
robbing, etc., got TO be inccnvenientiy
plentiful. The police slept peacefully under
it all, but Mayor Wiltz was notso easily
satisfied. He bethought him Of seeipg If
criminal proceedings might not be Of more
avail than those In the civil courts had
been. Mr.Socha's friends, however, stood
up to him nanfully with bond upon bond
until finally the charges became 80 numer-
GUS thst bonds became more scarce, and
Mr.. Socha had to succumb.
Certainly Mayor Wilt deserves the
heartiest thanks of all our citizens for his
perseverance in this matter, as also Mr.. NC
Pheiin, our efficient District Attorney, for
his, active CO. operation therein. These out
RACES are scandalous, and municipal or
ganisation which cannot control them must
be detective. We hope that Royal street

lish comparison between the merits Of
