Out of Whole Cloth

The following letter from Monsignor
Capel was received yesterday by Mr.. W. j.
Onahan, of Chicago, and by him forwarded
to the editor of the Northwestern Chronicle
in this city. 1t speaks as follows
New YORK, Nov. 80, 1888.
William j. Onahan, City Hall, Chicago:
-Monsignor Capel wholly repudiates
the Chicago Tribune interview on the
school question as the veriest caricature
and parody of the unsought conversation
forced upon him by it's correspondent.
He particularly resents it's implication of
an indescretion on his part, of suggesting
line of policy which it belongs to the
American bishops alone to set forth for
their people. He declares the language
as well as the thoughts, are utterly unlike
anything he has ever said or is likely to,
say.
Please give as wide spread contradiction
to the Tribune parody as possible.

OLD GRIMES.

"a. G. Greene, born in Providence, Il.
ebruary, 10, 1852, and eeccated ut Brown Ill
ersity, in that city, died 1856, was the auth
the ia nous song ''O'd Grimes is dsad,''
eldom correctly published, buC as popular
ny in theEnglish Language. The following
correct version:
Old Grimes is dead, that good old man,
We meier shall see him more;
He zsed to wear long black coat
All buttoned down before.
His heart was open as the day,
His feelings all were true;
His hair was some inclined to gray,
He wore 1t IN queue.
When e'er he heard the voice OF pain,
His breast with pity burned;
The large, round head upon his came
From ivory wac turned.
Kind words he over had for all,
He knew no base design;
His eyes were dark and rather small,
His nose was equilline.
He lived at peace with all mankind,
In friendship he YVES true;
His coat had pocket holes behind,
His pantaloons were blue.
Unframed the sin which earth pollutes,
he passed securely DER,
And never Wore a pair of boots
For thirty years or more.
But good old Grimes is now at rest,
Nor fears nisfortune's frOwn;
He wore doubie-breasted vest,
The stripes ran up and dswn.
He modest merit sought to find,
And pay it its desert;
He had no malice in his mind,
No ruffles on his shirt.
His neiGhbors he did not abuse,
Was sociable and gay;
He wore large buckles on his shoes,
And changed them every day.
His knowledge hid from public gaze;
He did not bring to view,
Nor make noise town-Ineeting days,
AS many people do.
His worldly goods he never threw
In trust to fortunes chances;
He lived (as ali his brothers do),
In easy circumstances.
Thus uudisturb'd by anxious cares,
His peaceful moments ran,
And everybody said he was
a fms old geatieman.

Among the leading and most useful sgri-
cultural enterprises that has been established
in Memphis is that of the Memphis Fertil-
izsr Company, with a limited capital of
$4,000. The organization Of the company
has been perfected and the following officers
elected: Amos Woodruff, president; John f.
WilkersoD, secretary and treasurer; J. t.
Pace, superintendent. The organization is
made up of wealthy business men, noted for
their enterprise and intelligence; men who
intend TO make the enterprise a perfect sue
