Father Tolton and the Imposing Church
He Is building In Chicago.
Father Augustus Tolton, who has the
distinction of being the first Roman
Catholic priest Of the negro race or
dained especially for missionary work
among the colored people of the United
States, is now engaged in the erection OF
q church for his congregation in Chicago
which promises to be an ornament to the
city. 1t is dedicated to st. Monica, the
mother of st. Augustine, and is expected
to be completed in July next. The struc-
ture will be of Gothic architecture, with
two spires of unequal height, and the
material pressed brick, trimmed with
Bedford stone. The seating capacity OF
the church proper will be $50, and the
Sunday school rooms will accommodate
500 more. The interior woodwork will
be of white oak, and the building will be
heated by steam and lighted with cleo
tricity.
A unique and interesting life history
is Father lotions. He was born a slave
on a Missouri plantation, and on the
outbreak of the war his parents escaped
! to the north, taking their children with
them. They reached Illinois in safety
and located at Quincy, where the father
of the family soon died and Augustus wa

he worked in a collar mandatory and
in a store as porter.
During all this time he devoted every
leisure moment to study, being ambi-

ress was good, and he mastered Latin
almost without assistance. He subse-

WASHINGTON, Dec. Authorization
received here indicates that the Cana
dian government is taking no chances,
and is at work to secure the retention of
lumber on the free list in the Wilson
bill. The opposition Of certain interests
to placing lumber on the free list has
aroused the Canadian government, and
MI. Courtney deputy minister of finance,
has been sent here to look after the do
minion's interest. The argument that
is being used TO overcome the objection
to free lumb Der is that in case this pro-
vision is eliminated from the Wilson
bill an export duty will be levied by the
Canadian government on logs and lum-
her.

Aberdeen News, D: The Argus
Leaders talk of cheap soft coal under
the Wilson bill is ridiculous IN view OF
the fact that the Ohio coal costs but
$i.10 per long ton at the mine, of which
amount the miners receive 60 to 90 cents.
The remainder of the price paid here is
for freight and handling charges at this
end of the hne. And it should be taken
into consideration too that Ohio lies well
west oil the seaboard. Ii the writer's
memory is not at fault, soft coal at the
Nova Scotia mines costs by the shipload
between SO and 80 cents per ton and is
anterior to the OHIO coal for domestic
purposes because Of the sulphur it con-
tains. The present duty on coal is "a
cents per ton for lump-the only kind
used here-and 80 cents for the tine ol
slack. Prior TO the passage OF the Nc
Klnley bill the duty was IS cents ant
40 cents respectively. Anthracite O.
hard coal is free and has been for man.
years. In view of these things the tall
of cheap coal under the Wilson bill i
ridiculous and absurd.
