The 200 guests dressed in apparel equal
to that worn by the best of the professions,
and with faces as intelligent, marked a
new era in the realm of labor.
Tie tables were set in the form of a

The convention did practical work in
the way of cooperation in the interests
of the papers and the people whose faith
is theirs. Correspondents will be secured
at principal centers, purchasing agency
and advertising bureau organized, and
at the next convention in Washington, a
year hence, even greater progress is ex-
pected to be reported. The convention
was notable one, bringing together as
it did men Of no little national reputa-
ton.
Everybody was interested in Rev. Pat
rick Cronin, editor of the Buffalo Catho-
lie Union and Times, whose caustic pen
wrote phrases which Bishop McQuaid,
of Rochester, thought deserving of GEN.
sure. Yet on motion of Father Nc
Kenna, of Marlboro, Mass, Father Gro
min was unanimously selected to open
the convention with prayer. He was
also elected vice president of the asso-
citation, responded on its behalf at the
Catholic club reception, spoke in its
name at the public meeting, and was
introduced fatteringly by Archbishop
Corrigan.
Dan Rudd, the only colored Catholic
editor IN the country-a tall, why, in
tellectua] man-gave practical ideas to
the convention from his experience
gained in the Colored Press association,
of which he is trustee. His speech at
the Catholic club reception rendered to
the editors earned him the compliments
Of the archbishop. He will be proposed
at the next meeting of the club, and have
the honor of being the only colored man
on its roster-a distinction that is his
also in the Catholic American Historical
society. He edits The American Catholic
Tribune, of Cincinnati. That city also
sent the only woman delegate, Miss
Mary M. Meline, of The Catholic Tele-
graph-a woman who has labored in the
field of Catholic literature for years.
The Oldest Catholic editor, Patrick
Donahoe, was there too. He is the oldest
in point of years and service, and the
convention honored him in special reso-
buttons of congratulation. The Boston
Pilot, which reverted to him at the death
of John Boyle O'Reilly, was at one time
the only Catholic paper in the field.
Although sixty-eight years old he sang
THE Star Spangled Banner" Justify at
the reception, and the chorus from the
members made him feel young again, he
said. He is the new treasurer of the as

A SCIENTIFIC RECREATION.

4 Split a lucifer match at the non-phos-
phorized end. Trim the end of second
into wedge shape, and work the one into
the other so as to form V; the more acute
the angle the better. Place these two
matches astride on the edge of the knife,
requesting the skeptical gentleman to keep
the blade exactly horizontal, and so to
hold his hand that the two phosphorized
ends of the matches shall just touch the
table, without any interruption of contact.
To the establishment of the company, in
Guiding the experimenter, the two matches
will be seen gradually to move along the
blade This unexpected effect is produced
by unconscious movements on the part Of
the person who holds the knife-move-
ments as imperceptible to himself as to the
other spectators.
When it is desired to give the expert
Ynent more fanciful character you may
slightly break each match half way down;
they will then represent the legs of cav
alier, whose body, cut out of a visiting card,
may be stuck in a slit made at the point of
juncture of the two matches.

equipment were lefSSu the ground when
he was removed by a comrade. He subse-
quently received an honorable discharge
on account of disability.
After returning home to Massachusetts,
he was arrested as deserter, but promptly
released on showing his discharge papers.
On going to Virginia as clerk in the quar-
termaster's department he was again ar
rested as deserter, shackled to another
man and kept several weeks in confne-
ment on very small rations. Meantime his
colonel wrote to the war department. that
his discharge had been obtained through
fraud, and his papers were taken away and
he was tried by court-martial. Understand
ing that he was to be shot, he effected his
escape and made his way, after an arduous
experience, to Halifax, where he remained
until peace was declared
When he returned to Rockport his
friends and credit were destroyed by the
charge that he was a deserter. Knowlton
set to work to establish his record as q
faithful soldier, but it was only the other
day when formal acknowledgment came
from the war department that the charges
against him were false, and that he had
been honorably discharged beforethe court
martial tried him. Mr. knowlton will now
probably take steps to secure the pension
to which he is entitled.

How to Paint Iron.

+ It is recommended by an exchange to
prevent paint on iron from scaling off in
large flakes to wash the iron surfaces be-
fore any paint has been used, and then
brush it with hot linseed oil If the OBJ
jects are small and bear being warmed
they may be heated until the linseed oil
with which they are brought in contact
begins to steam, then all the surfaces are
carefully brushed with the oil and allowed
to cool. They are then ready to take the
paint. If the objects are too large, and a
warming not to be recommended, the
linseed oil must be put on very hot. The
thin liquid oil enters into all the pores, re-
moves all the moisture and adheres SO
firmly TO iron that frost, rain or air cannot
effect a separation. To iron surfaces oiled
in this manner the paint adheres well.
This proceeding is also recommended
wood which is exposed to the open air.

Uniting the Ends of Lead Pipe.

I A convenient way to unite the ends of
pipes, accordingto The American Engineer,
is as follows: Whatever the size of the pipe
may be, procure block of hard wood, say
four or five inches long and four inches in
diameter, bore a hole straight through the
center, SO nearly the size of the pipe that
the block can be driven on the end of the
pipe with light hammer. If one has
set of augur bits it will not be difficult to
select bit of the proper size to make
water tight fit. Let the block be driven
clear on the pipe, SO that the end of the
pipe will be flush or even with the end of
the block. Now place the two ends Of the
pipe together, and drive the block off one
pipe on the other, until the joint will be at
the middle of the block. If the hole in the
block is made of the proper size, the block
will fit so closely that the joint will be
water tight; and if the ends Of the pipe are
dressed off true and square, the joint will
be so strong that it will sustain the pres
sure Of head or column of water one hun
dred feet high. Iron pipe may be united in
the same manner. Should the joint leak a
trifle, let shingle nails be driven into the
wood around the pipe so as TO press the
timber firmly all around the pipe.

His sermons in opposition to the discs
Enlistment of the Irish chTrch, IN 1868,
attracted the attention of Dsraeli, and
secured Magee's elevation to the see OF
Peterborough.
AS bishop of Peterborough he contin-
ued one of the most vigorous defenders
of the chupch, and, next to the bishop OF
Manchester, was the most popular pref
ate in England. He took first place
among debaters in the house Of lords.
His eloquence was described as ''ronsing,
spirited, combative, often sarcastic, and
always directed against some evil which
is preoccupying public attention" His
style was never slpshod or hesitating;
his words were arranged with perfect
symmetry, and his language was equally
rich and faultless. He surprised the
public on one noted occasion by declar-
ing that he would rather see England
free than England soberA" This express
sion called forth the Indignation OF the
temperance agitators, but people gen.
orally interpreted his remark as mean
ing that he would rather men conquered
temptation for themselves than have it
removed by legislation which might be
oppressive to sober people.
DR.. Magee was born at Cork on Dec.
II, 1921. He was educated at Kilkenny
college and Trinity college, Dublin, and
was ordained in 1912. His translation
to the see of York only took place last
January, on the death of Archbishop
Thompson.

Importance of Technical Papers

The indifference displayed by the large
majority OF workmen in engineering shops
and other industries to producing any
thing better than the average standard OF
work, or TO raise themselves beyond the po-
sitlon they happen TO occupy, is lamenta-
BILE. The superintendent OF a large shop
said recently; Il want man for foreman
of one of our shops, and would you believe
il, there is not one out Of the whole GO that
| would trust. i never saw such lot Of
men in my life; they don't care for any
thing. There isn't single mechanical pa
per taken by one of them, and yet they are
q fair average"

4 HOrrid Keepsake.

There is a certain collector OF queer
things who owns skull-another mans
skull-and though it is on a shelf with a
lot Of other dead heads representing era
NAL types of different races, it diverts at
tention from them by the fact that its eye
sockets are green. The collector says that
it is believed TO be the skull of British
officer who was killed in one of the battles
of the revolution that took place in New
Jersey, for it was found in a shallow grave
where a number of bodies had been hastily
buried. Says the collector:
THE poor fellow was laid out to receive
Christian burial, and, as usual, pennies
were laid on his eyes TO keep the lids down
A cloth was tied over his face 10 make the
eyes close more quickly, bnt as the battle
began to go adversely, or as the dead and
wounded BEGAN to gather on the hands Of
the men ia than they could be taken
care of. a oh was dug in a hurry and
the dead piled into it. InteTments
are often m so hastily that dying men
are buried with the dead. The moisture
from rain and dew rusted the copper pen

Charcoal from SaMdust.

1t is learned from the London Journal Of
the Society of Arts that sawdust and
shaVings, practically waste substances, are
burned to account by NJ. Claimant, of Paris,
for the production of a finely divided vege-
table charcoal, which is intended to be ap-
piled for the removal of unpleasant flavor
In ordinary French wine. The charcoal is
also available as a altering medium, es-
pecially in distilleTies, where it is said to
be capable of filtering forty times its vol
ume of alcohol; whereas the vegetable
charcoal of commerce, gradually becoming
scarcer and dearer, and which requires
grinding and often recarbonization, will
only filter about three times its volume.

thirty-two delegates, and the other
Catholic journals, weekly and monthly,
about one hundred in number, sent in
letters of adherence to the association,
with very few exceptions. The associa-
ton is but a year old. 1t was organized
by six editors, who met in the Catholic
congress year ago. The growth of
membership is remarkable, and thor
oughly represents the Roman Catholic

Viewing the Departure of 8 Soul.

So it seems we are to be enabled to estab-
fish intimate and visual relations with the
spirit world. At any rate a startling
story to that effect comes from Paris. The
tale declares that French SCIENTIST
name not given-has invented an appa-
ratus whereby souls can be placed on view.
He tested the machine at q deathbed re-
Gently, and according to his own uncor-
roborated account achieved a thrilling
success. Says the alleged scientist, but
probable romancer:
A sudden trembling, shaking the whole
body, announced that the supreme moment
had come With one of my friends who
was assisting me we placed our heads under
the dark covering of the apparatus, and
kept our eyes steadfastly fixed on the OBJ
ject glass. The particles of dust in the air
were magnifed many thousands of times,
and for moment their violent movement
produced cloud in front of the glass.
Then delicate column of vapor, con-
densed into 1occulent mass, was clearly
seen above and around the body. Particles
appeared TO pursue one another as if obedi-
ent to some kind of central attraction.
The cloud condensed more and more and
took the vaporous form of man, then rap
idly became purified until it was as color
less as the most perfect crystal.
The form foated at about foot above
the body, to which it was distinctly united
by a delicate cord. The face was undoubt-
eddy the face of the man, but much finer
and calmer. The eyes were closed, and the
astral shape seemed to be asleep. By
double impulse we, both of US, experienced
the desire that the form should awake At
that very moment the bond which joined
it to the body broke. A slight trembling
passed over this beautiful, perfectly mod
eled form; violet fame shone where the
heart should be. 1t stood up and gave a
sorrowing look at the abandoned body, ex-
tended the right hand with a gesture Of
adieu, then vanished
