The motor line service continues to

The motor line service continues to
be as poor as ever. The patrons of that
once comfortable line are completely
disguised with the way the trains are
being run. No regularity at all is OBJ
served, and what is worse, whenever
trains come along they often fail to
pull up and allow passengers to get
ABOARD 1t cannot be that the engi-
neers and conductors are responsible
for this lack of accommodation, and the
company should see that the people who
voted them a franchise are taken care
of as they ought. 1t may be that the
company wants to demonstrate by a
negative process the superiority Of the
electric line over the steam motor in
order to get the peoples endorsement
for electricity. If this is so it certainly
IS being overdone, and Mr.. Lowry may
tind it to his interest to give the motor
line patrons better service at once or
there will be trouble. If the motors are
played out, why not put on horse care.
Anything at all is better than walking.

RELIGIOUS societies are very dear to
the Church, and young men and wo-
men would do we'll to make themselves
busy there. Every Catholic should
belong to some religious society. either
the society of st. Vincent de Paul,
Holy Name, Sodality Of the Blessed
Virgin or Holy Rosary. Such societies
are always productive of good results.
Every Catholic home should have an
interest in some of the Catholic librar-
les, and the heads of Catholic families
should never fail to have good books III
their library, no matter how small it is,
for the instruction Of their children.
There are circulating libraries in con
nection with almost all Catholic schools,
which are not as we'll patronized as
they ought to be. Catholics look over
your list Of books and see il you have
such books as we refer to here; if not,
it is your duty 70 see that works on fc-
tioD and fancy are laid away and good
works on Catholic affairs substituted.

1.-The actual amour. Of malt liquors
consumed in 1888 was 767 5S7 .O56 GAL

gallons of imported beer and ale. The
manufacturers price to the retailer is
rather above than below 20 cents per
gallon. at % cents the cost TO the
dealers would be $l53.5l7,41l. The re-

A funny story comes from Counecti-
cut. It is that peculiar result of the
drinking OF ice cold water from spring
in Stonington, Conn.,, is reported. The
water flows from crack in high
rock, and the veins of a man who drinks
from it begin to swell. and he looks and
feels as though he were about to burst
for the next ten minutes. The swelling
gradually subsidies and no serious effect
is felt, excepta slight buzzinQ IN the
ears. 1t is the talk Of the neighbor
hood, aud every body is eager to try
the effect of the water. A specimen
has been sent to Boston for analysis. A
Minnesota man has discovered that a
short distance back from the supposed
spring is brewery, the Washings Of
which find their outlet in this rock.
Hepce the large heads that follow the
use of the water.

The books of Rev. DIR. Charles

con not be any charges of white-Wash-
ing in this connection, though some
were so indiscreet as to hint that there
was something mot just right" in the
treasurer's accounts. The auditing
committee did not go behind closed
doors TO find out the true state Of at
fairs in the treasurer's office. They ill.,
yited all interested parties to come in,
5ncluding the representatives of the
press. to see that everything was as it
should be. Every cent collected DY
Father OReilly was accounted for, and
papers to show where and when the
money went. 1t is to be hoped that all
thase insinuations that have been go
ing the rounds" will find their way into
the waste basket or some other appro-.
Driate place, and that such men as "Fat
Grant, the railroad laborer,' WILL spend
more time in attending to their own
affairs instead OF helping anti lris,
newspaper proprietors TO sell their pa
pers by furnishing them letters OF a
sensational character on Irish matters.
The committee, after finding the treas
,rer's accounts correct, did NOT fail TO
rive credit where it was due, and added
tnat the league was to be congratulated
for having so able and capable man
as DR.. 0 Reilly as treasurer, and that
to him deep debt of gratitude was
due for the onerous and responsible
duties so faithfully discharged.
