OFF TO TIE PEN.

Tom Thurber viii be taken TO the penl-
tertiary at Leavenworth today to begin
his life sentence. Yesterday morning
Deputy United States Marshal Charles
Howard came down from Topeka who
will take Thurber to the penitentiary.
Thurber said Yesterday that he was in
hopes OF gaining his liberty ID few years
at the furthest. 1t IS thought that IN view
of the fact that new and material evidence
has been discovered since the trial, that
Thurber may be liberated by the president
in year or two. He does not seem TO
worry much about his lie sentence and
takes il in a rather matter Of fact manner.

AS the dirt began TO tumble in Thomas
made a loud cry, which attIa.ted the atten-
ton Of his fellow laborers, VINO set to
work at o &C digging him out. 1t took
about twenty minutes TO dig him out. He
suffered no serious injuries and n few

artired priests there were fully go other
priests. The services were held IN ct.
JOINS church, and the audience, Father
Dalton declares, was one OF the n1est ever
assembled in ST. Louis The consecrator
was the venerable Archbishop henrlck-
He was assisted by Bishop Hennessy, OF
Dubuque, and Bishop Fink, Of Leaven-
worth, Father Dalton acting as chap
lam for the former The ceremonies be-
gan at o'clock in the morning and
ended at O'Clock in the afternoon,
and were full Of solemn grandeur
throughout. The sermon was preached
by Bishop Spaulding, OF Peoria. illinois
According to the law OF the church the
bishops participating in the conservation
ceremonies were compelled TO fast from
the midnight preceding uEtll the conse-
Grafton ended, and as this means total
abstine &c from food or drink of any kind
the ordeal on a man of Bishop kenrick' s
great age-S3 years-cau hardly BE- mag
ined. Following the fast there came a
magnificent feast, however, for a banquet
was held in ST. Johns hall.
Father Dalton and Bishop Hennessy
were literally raised together. As CHI
dreu they were playmates and as boys they
attended school in St. Patrick's parish,
St. Louis Later they were classmates at
the Jesuit university in that city and IN
1862 they attended the same college IN
Milwaukee. Together they studied phil
losophy and theology at Cape Glrardeau,
No. graduating in 1861, and November 80,
1869. they were ordained priests IN the
same church where nineteen years later
Father Hennessy was consecrated bishop.
Both men were under age t that time ana
they were ordained under Special
dispensation from Rome. The Catholic
church requires that priest shall be n
years of age.
- cannot speak too highly Of Bishop
Hennessy," said Father Dalton yesterday.
He has heart as tender as woman ;.
He Is generous to fault, and Intellect
ualIy he has few superIors IN the church
With strangers he is extremely dIgnlhed,
but it is natural dignity without touch
Of the pompous. In truth he is grand
man and che universally beloved"
