WORK On THE BUILDING TO BEGIN April. /.
Cardinal Gibbons is reported in a Washington
dispatch to the New York Tribune to have said in
regard to the Catholic university: ''The building
will be begun on April I. The architect has all
the plans ready, they have been approved, and we
now only await favorable weather. AS we have
enough money on hand TO put the theological de-
partlnent into operation It Will be built as rapidly
as possible. After that we will go slowly, paying
we build. 1t Will take some time to get fac
ulty together. Bishop Keane is now looking about
the universities OF Europe for available men and
expect he will have secured few by the time he
returns. We propose to have as professors the
ableSt men, in all branches of learning who can be
secured in this country and in Europe, so that
university Will equal If not surpass, the greatest

How LINDSEY MUSE LOST HIS RING.-Lindsey

How LINDSEY MUSE LOST HIS RING.-LindSey
Muse, the well-known venerable messenger to the
Secretary Of the Navy, has worn for many years
plain gold ring, which he valued very highly be-
cause OF the length OF its service. The other day
a well dressed young man, who entered into con-
verSation with him. expressed great admiration of
the ornament. The veteran messenger is getting
well along in years and his eyesight is not good
as it once was. He supposed the young man was
one OF his many friends with whom he is not we'll
acquainted, but who always have something
pleasant to say to him. When the young man
asked permission to examine the ring Lindsey un-
heSitatingly removed 1t from his finger and
handed it to him, and when he wanted to show 1t
to friend down the corridor Lindsey offered no
objection. Half an hour later the old man was
inquiring among the clerks il any one had seen
the man with the ring. OF course his search was
fruitleSS.
