another church Ba. K Failure.

Lawrence, Mass, 26.-The Roman
Catholic Church under the contr ! Of the
Augustinian fathers, was crowded o.
eacn service to-day. 1t was expected
that the priests would refer to the col
lapse OF their savings institution at st.
Mary's Church. Rev. G. Z. McEvery,
superior Of the American branch of the
AugustInisn Order, said he proposed
soon to give deteiled statement OF tho
church finances. The society would
leave nothing undone to meet the obligs-
Iions. He considered the mortgages on
church property as CT mpsTAtively
slight inconvenience. The only matter
FOR serious consideration was the interests
of depositors. Ee said the society in.
debtedness was between 800, 900 and
$500, 600, but with / receipts from
orders in three churches and Two chsUels
in Lawrence and Methuen, with
extraordinary efforts be hoped TO
meet the financial obligations in a
few yea 8. He expressed the
utmost confidence that Catholics Of Law
renee would subscribe according to their
means to free the church from indebted
ness. Two years ago he collected in
New York, Pennsylvania and Boston
$1l 900, which was applied to decrease
he debt. The society would leave
nothirg undone to meet the pressing de-
msnds, and would not see the immediste
psor suffer. He urged creditors to be
tent and the society would pay them
all.
Rev. Carr, OF the Immaculate Concep-
ton, told his people the society would
not repudiste the debts, but pay dollar
for dollar; if they would have patience
and contribute ss Catholics they would
get their money in q short time.
Rev Ryan, Of st, Lawrence Church
gave The same advice, and said there
would be iVi1eDd paid to deposiscrs
yearly and perhaps oftener. The debt
was not incurred by the preeent heads Of
parishes, but the responsibilities would
be met.
Lawrence, Mass, %. - Attachments
continue to be placed on the property oil
the Augustinian Society, detpite the
implied threat of the executive commit
tee that no subscriptions be called fol-
unless the suits already entered were dis
continued, md none others instituted.
Three attachments have been served on
Archbishop Williams, of Boston. The
AUgustinian Society will be forced into
insolvency. The subscriptions thus fAl
towards relieving the indebtedness
amount to $500. Special attachment:
are made on the real estate recently con-
veyed by the society.

astonishing feat of swimming across the
whole breadth of the English channel,
despite It's very rough sea. On the first
attempt he could only reach part of the
way, and was for safety brought back
by an attendant steamer. His scCOad
attempt lii 1870 was quite successful; he

from Dover to the French coast near CAL
ais he was supplied occasionally with
refreshments by persons near at hand
but he never touched boat or ground
during this prolonged interval. In the
same year young dnmsel, Miss Agnes

that tho weaker sex Is strong enough to
achieve remarkable results in this art
