the members Of ST. Stanislaus parish had
tho extreme pleasure and cons 'lation OF
witnessing large percentage OF thu
children receive Confirmation from the
hands of their beloved bishop, Rt. Rev.
J. B.. Cotter. The pastor is Father
Klawiter, and the congregation is entirely
composed Of natives OF Poland and their
American born children. They have a
large church and fine schools and con
stitute goodly proportion OF the popu

Woodworking, patriotic aud law abiding
citizens. Last summer a little uDpfeas-
antness arose in consequence Of the re-
moval OF their pastor, TO whom they
we're ardently attached, and the sensa-
tional reports OF the daily papers exag-
perated the matter and made huge
mountain out OF a tioy mole hill. These
representatives of the press
would approach the priest and pat him
on the back, and then with satanic ingen
uity manufacture lies which they sent
broadcast throughout the country. The
sons and daughters of oppressed Poland
n this city, when they are not naisled by
Yankee mischief makers, are as good,
practical Catholics as can be found in
the Church and they are fortunate IN
having Father Klawiter as their spiritual

Sweet Singer Of Ireland.

Why should feeling ever speak
When thou canst breath her soul so well!
When the emancipation of the Irish
Catholics was in allegiance and even the
powerful voice Of O'Connell, smothered
by the prejudice Of the English press,
which refused to publish his speeches, 1t
was the harp Of Tom Moore vibrating in

even the middle classes Of Great Britain

The large house was crowded to it's full

it was the last night that they had to
enjoy themselves Judging from the
way each and every member OF thc OF

entertainment. After the regular meet

Immediately reappeared with clay pipes

called upon for song, which he gave, and
his deep basso voice was heard to good
advantage in one of the good old Irish
songs, "The Harp that once Through
Tara's Hail." Mr.. ]. F. O'Connell, who
was recently married, attended the meet
ing and as it was his first night out,
Judging from the way he enjoyed him
self, it looked as though he never would
get another night out When Brother j.
J. Padden started to play an Irish jig on
his violin, Frank jumped on the floor
and danced until the members appealed
to the chair to have him stop, but Frank
refused, until finally after all appeals
were in vain, the chairman appointed a
committee of three to escort him to his
scat. The committee finally aft a
struggle got him qa1eted down. Mr..
Hugh j. Rogan recited very touching
recitation. Mr.. a. Fl. R'gan sang seve-
raj good songs in very Acceptable man

Eventful Life Of a Nun in Algeria.

A valiant nun, known as Sister Saint
Paulin, has just died at Gran, in Algeria.
and a remarkable tribute has been paid
to her memory by medical man, DIR.
Sondras, with whom she had been con-
nected in hospital work for twenty-five
wears. He says: II cav her for the first
time in 1867, when the cholera was Tag
ing I noticed her sweetness and calm
courage. / saw her tending the victims
of the terrible typhus epidemic of 1868,
and the feelings of esteem had pre-
yiously entertained for her ripened into
those of respectful and life long friend
ship. The administration knew her to
be strong among the strong and brave
among the brave She passed with q
smiling face through the most terrible
scenes, and always with words of strength
and comfort on her lips for the weak or
the deepairing." No wonder that such a
woman received the Cross of the Legion
of Honor. This honor was conferred
upon her by the Republic in 1885. She
had expressed wish to die like soldier
At her post. This was not to be. She
fell q victim to cruel malady. The hos.
pital doctor under whom she had worked
for 80 many years was with her at the
lest. Courage, Sister," he said, ''syou

for years to come your Cross Of the
Legion of Honor NO. she replied,
aI shall not wear that cross any more. l
am going to where / shall have better

who are continually reviled and calumni-
ated by bigots and religious impostors. i
