AN Esr1mABhE WOMAN DEAD.
The Rev. Mother Angela of St. Francis
 orphan Asylum Passes Quietly

The Rev. Mother Angela of St. Francis
 orphan Asylum Passes Quietly
 Away.
 The Rev. Mother Angela, superior of ths St. Francis orphan asylum, died at 7:30 o'clock last evening. She was suddenly stricken with cerebro-spinal meningitis Tues day morning and at o'clock in the after- noon became unconscious. A council of physicians was summoned, consisting of Drs. O'Connor, Cremin and Russell. They gave but little hope of her recovery and yes- terday no thought of her rallying was enter- tained. Throughout the afternoon her death was momentarily expected. She was born in Ireland about 1895 and was consequently between 60 and 65 years of
 age. She assumed the veil at an early age,
 and afterwards took upon herself the duty of
 educating the young in the Catholic faith,
 many of whom have already made their
 mark in the world. She came to the St.
 Francis orphan asylum ten years ago from the Mount St. Joseph's convent for young
 ladies in Hartford. At one time she was in
 charge of the Sisters of Mercy of Connecti- cut. It would require large volume to de- tail the many acts of benevolence that she had performed to aid the unfortunate. Her religion was to do good, and her death will cause a void in the large circle of friends to whom she was endeared by many lovabls traits of character. To her is due much of the credit for the tender care of bringing up many little waifs and she was more than a mother to them. She was peculiarly fitted | to care for tho little orphans by her many estimable traits of character. Last Monday
 she was attending to her duties az usual, to all appearance in good health and spirits. Even when informed that she cOuld live bOt . short while longer she was hopeful of liv- ing longer and talked encouragingly of bringing about some of her desired projects in the work of charity. She passed quietly away after receiving the last rites of her religion.

SPECIAL EFFORTS.

Temperance Work In Sunday Schools
 Efforts are being made all over the coun- try by the w. c. T. U. and other bands of temperance workers to introduce right ideas upon the subject of using alcoholic bever- ages in all churches and Sunday schools. Rev. L. H. Squires preached earnestly in fa- vor of temperance at the Church ot the Mes siah last Sunday evening, and at the Church of the Holy Spirit Rev. Phebe A. Hana ford conducted an evening service in respect to temperance, in which members of the Sunday school took part in speech and song. Portions of scripture were recited by mem bers of the Bible class and by Miss Florence E. Waite, the young organist of the church and Sunday school.
 Remarks were made by Miss Ellen E. Miles, the superintendent (and also 8 w. 0. T. U. superintendent of Sunday school work), and by Nessrs. Alfred P. Munson, the vice superintendent of the Sunday school, and MT. s. Knapp, one of the teachers. Miss Anna L. Bartlett read an appropriate poem very effectively, and an address of some length and very earnest in favor of prohibi- ton was delivered by Rev. E. E. Bartlett of Madison, Wis, after which stirring Sun day school hymn was sung, and with the doxology and the Sunday school benediction and response the interesting services were closed.
