A NOBLE CHARITY.
ST. Mary's Academy at Winona
Will Be Made a Hospital.

VIII De MdUG d I1OSpItdls
Special to the Globe.
WINoNA, March 19.-The sale was
reported to-day of st. Mary's academy,
at the west end of this city, to Bishop
Ireland, who has been negotiating for
some time for the property with the in
tention of converting it into hospital.
st. Mary's academy was built in Winona
but a few years ago at cost OF about
$4,000, and was dedicated Dec. 15, 1886:
the Sisters of st. Francis, and
it was originally designed to make
Winona the headquarters of the
order. There were thirty five
resident sisters of this order here with
Mother Mary AleXia as mother superior
and Sister Mary AlphonS as assistant.
Rev. Father Michels was the resident
priest. The order has decided, how
ever, to continue it's headquarters at
Milwaukee, where its Normal school is
located, and the idea of converting the
magnificent building into hospital has
been discussed for some time.
Only lately matters have taken
definite turn, and to-day the
sale was reported. The consideration
was not made public, but is understood
to have been between $4,000 and $780,
600. The property is understood to
have been purchased in the name OF the
Diocese of st. Paul. The plan is to re-
model the building into hospital, and
tO:emplOy the best nurses, to be selected
from skilled hospital sisters. The hospi-
tai will be free to applicants OF all de-
nominations or creeds. The Daily Her
aid tonight published interviews with
the physicians of WinOna on the prOpO-
sitions, and all indorsed it as the wealth.
lest of enterprises, and one which meets
long felt want among the medical fra
ternity. Fathers COtter and Meier OF
this city express great satisfaction at the
successful outcome of the matter.

Newspaper Criticism.

LONDON, March 2O.-The Standard
dubs Mr.. Rltchie's local government bill
a revolutionary measure. 1t thinks he
attempted too much, and paid too little
regard to the conservative principles
by which the government ought to reg
uIate their policy, despite their alliance
with the dissident Liberals. 1t believes
more moderate measure would have
secured the support of the dissidents
without offending large body of Con-
servatives. 1t cOngratulates Mr.. Ritchie
upon his courage, but wishes he had
displayed little less valor and little
more discretion, in which case he would
have been more certain of success. The
News, Post, Telegraph and Chronicle
express general approval of the meas
ure.

PARIS. March 19.-The manifesto of

for general who refuses to lay down
his sword would constitute a veritable
plebiscite, signifying the abdication of
a free people. The intrusion of military
leaders into politics not only menaces
our free institutions, and disarms our
forces by dividing them in the presence
of the enemy, but has always resulted
in the suppression of our rights and

Burns Cottage in Peril.

Scotland is thrilling with the report
that Burns cottage" has narrowly
escaped destruction. We believe there
are several of these hallowed structures
vested with greater or less degree
of sanctity, but the one in question is
near " Alloways' auld haunted kirk"
wherever that may be precisely. A
vulgar boiler at neighboring smithy
blew up in its vulgar way, took flight
of seventy yards or so and dropped on
the roof of the sacred edifice. The
reader holds his breath in paralyzed
alarm. But no! That chamber which
was the birthplace of Podgers-that is,
of Robert Burns-escaped Through
thatch and rafters the unholy missile
sped, committing havoc generally, but
in the part of the cottage which was
used as store" For the mind of
some people these last words have
more interest than the providential
rescue of the chamber. They give food
for thought. 1t is no eXaggeration,
probably, to say that if this building had
been wrecked a whole nation would
have grieved, would have called those
responsible to fierce account, would
have reckoned it public loss and an
occasion for public mourning. But
calmly and cheerfully they contemplate
that invaluable relic turned to the base
uses of village "store." DR.. John

papers, which he mislaid. The owner
