The Feast of st, Aloysius.


The Feast OF SAINT Aloysius, the patron
saint OF the Catholic Church, was formally
celebrated at the church that bears his name
iii this city last Friday. The principal ser
vices, commencing at 10 O'Clock a. m, were
conducted by Father Schurz, assisted by Fa-
Their sweimoerg, of Newton, at the organ and
The imposing ceremonies were harmonious
and very impressive. The after services were
supplemented by an address of more than or
binary interest upon the life an d character Of
the Saint delivered by Father Sweimberg.
The virtues for which the Saint became ceie-
brated were those Of ''humillty, self-abnega-
ton and charity" all being graphically set
forth by the Reverend Father in a way most
pleasing and salts factory to the congregation
which was partly made up of Protestants.
The lesson of such Ii fe can never fail 81 a
wholesome effect whenever repeated. The
benediction was given by Father schurz, who
had forded swollen streams in the early morn
ing at great risk that he might be present to
administer to his people. In the evening Fs-
Their Sweimberg delivered his lecture entitled
the ''Tell-tales OF History, which we were
unable 10 hear, but which no doubt proved
instructive and entertaining.

Death Of Captain william TsrItou.


The sad, but not unexpected news, was
given out last Sabbath morning that Captain
William Tarlton was dead. The announce
ment was heard with deep regret by very
many, for although the deceased had, with
his family, sought home in our midst but
two short years ago, he mad, by his polished
manners that seemed to come OF geAtle blood,
by nobleness of character and by frank,
open address that springs only from gener-
GUS nature, won many fast friends. 1t was
our good fortune TO become one OF his first
acquaintances upon his arrival IN our midst,
he having been reader OF this journal In his
old home In Kentucky, and we must say that
the more we saw of the man the more we ad-
mired his many inherent viStues. HIS pres
ence among us was due more to his hopes and
desires of q renewal OF health than TO any
thing else, but deep-seated asthma settled
into that almost hopeless disease-consump-
ton. he was a man who never complained
or rebeled against the inevitable, but with
fortitudc most admirable bore up in smiles
and kind words till the last, dying, as he him.
self expressed it on the last day of his life,
"At peace with God and all mankind.v His
funeral services were conducted by Prot
Albeit, a w-kentuckian, at the NJ. Z
Church, on Monday afternoon. The address
OF the Professor over the remains Of his friend
was very touching, marked by the tenderest
sympathy and earnestness, and being listened
to by n large concourse Of friends of the fam
lily and respectful and prominent citizens very
many Of whom were moved to tears. The
pall-bearers were Judge NJ. s. Adams, +. G.
Smythe, Geo. L. Harris and T. NJ Lane The
wife, the daughter, the two sons and the only
surviving brother of the deceased, who had
but arrived from Kentucky, have the sympa-
thies of the entire community. Prof Albeit.
in giving sketch of the deeeased's life, paid
a glowing tribute TO his christian character.
and his conspicuous honorabeness as a citi-
zen, citing the fact that his friend had given
up at one time his entire fortune-to the last
dolar-to make good security promise.
Captain William Tarlton was born In Scott
county, Kentucky, April 18th, 1929. his father
and mother being Ralph 3. and Fannie Tar-
ton. His father, under General Richard
johnson, in the war of 1872. being the man
who killed Tecumseh. For fiftee years had
Captain Tarlton been a sufferer from disease
A little over year ago he went back to his
old home in Kentucky, and while riding out
to his brothers from Louisville in an open
conveyance he took cold that fastened his
death. The last time that he made his APP
pearance on our streets was election day in
April last He was moral and upright man,
but several weeks since he protested Divine
acceptance, was baptised and admitted to the
church.
