SHE CUT A FIGURE.
Newly Rich and Couldn't Hold
Her Money.


SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. l4.-Mrs. Annie
Tormey, widow of an Irish pioneer, who
left nearly $5OO,OOO when he died three
years ago, has filed aninsolvency petition
showing that she owes $179,7 ,7O1, which
more than covers her assets. As soon as
Tormey was buried the widow and
daughters started out to cut a wide
social swath. They thought nothing OF
spending $4,000 or $4,000 on a visit to
this city, and their bills for fnery ran up
to $4,000.
Mrs. Tormey was also inveigled into
losing investments. One OF her worst
ventures was with Allegretti, the candy
maker, who invented process for pre-
serving fruit against decay. Allegretti
failed last week, and his failure brought
Mrs. Tormey's affairs to crisis.
Mrs. Tormey's preferred creditors are
her three daughters, so that the money.
lenders who aided her are likely to lose
their money.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The holiday
trade always causes a heavy draft on
the treasury department for bright new

pennies that are desired The change is
taken as desire to make an apparent

of the highest dignity, including that of
president of the supreme court, and his
name passes throughout the republic as
synonym for inoorruptibility.

comes of family of distinguished law

then it follows that to surround
the issue of circulating notes by state
banks with conditions is unconstitutional,
for no Southern Democrat wants that.
The resolutions adopted by the con-
ference of Catholic archbishops in New
York, very clearly, admit it seems to us
the right of the laity to send their chill
dren to the public schools, inasmuch as
they devise scheme for the religious
instruction of such Catholic children as
go to those schools. Furthermore they
come pretty near admitting that children
may be sent to the public without detri-
ment inasnuch as Catholic parents are
not even advised to confne their children
to the parochial school. The resolutions
clearly imply a growing liberality on the
part of the governing powers OF the
church, liberality, which we are
inclined to think, partakes somewhat
of the nature of forced concession
to the growing independence OF
the laity. There have been signs for
long time past of a restiyeness
among the laity of the Catholic
church with the system of education
favored by the hierarchy. There has
been feeling growing up that the seeu-
lar education OF the parochfal school was
inferior to that of the public school, and
that the Catholic children were handl-
capped by it's inferiority. The
Faribalt plan of Archbishop Ire
land was concession to this
feeling, and the resolutions of the arch
bishops are a concession also; slight it
may be, but yet positive and significant.
Said New York priestspealking of these
resolutions, ut may be possible that we,
and the ,arehbishops with US, are becom-
ing more liberal, and are willing to re-
cognize the public schools as great insti-
tutions." It is not only possible, but
probable. The spirit of the age is one OF
| freedom-freedom of thought, freedom
of speech and freedom of choice-and
the Catholic hierarchy is not
strong enough to entirely ignore it even
lAif it desires to.
