An Orderly Christmas.

LONDON, Dec. 26.-The records
of the police courts of this and
other commercial and industrial
centers show that the number of
arrests during the Christmas holt
days were less in the aggregate than
in any similar period for twenty
years. This showing is regarded as
remarkable in view of the fact that
in times of depre ssion the working
classes as an almost invariable rule
seek relief from the cares of the
present and also seek hope for the
future in the flowing bowl.

The Whirligig of Politics

CHICAGO, Dec. 2s.-The ylcissi.
tudes as we'll as the pains and pleas.
ures Of political life are strikingiy
illustrated in the announcement that
the position of private confidential
secretary to Mayor John p. Hop.
kins, who will fill out the unexpired
term of Chicago's murdered chief
executive, Carter Harrison, has
been offered to Edward NJ. Lah,ff,
journalist of this city, whose
name is a household word among
the nationalists of Erin's Isle. 1t
Is only few years ago that he
occupied cell adjoining that of the
late Charles Stuart Parnell in
kllmainham jail, having been in
oarcerated for his nationalist pro.
cllvltles at the instance of Secretary
Foster, better known as Buy kshot
Foster, aud who, with the illustri.
Gus leader Of the home rule party,
has passed into the great unknown.
In those days young Lahiff, who was
not out of his teens, was known
from one end of the country to the
other for his ardent advocacy of
the national cause, as we'll as for
his ability in GLIDING the govern
ment officers who were constantly
on his track with the expectation
of bringing about his arrest at
the national meetings that had
been interdicted and placed under
the ban of Dublin Castle. They
were finally successful in their in
their EFFORT, but the only result of
his incarceration was TO increase his
popularity across the Irish Channel,
and to make his name know n
throughout the United Kingdom
With the death of Parnell, to whom
he was particularly devoted, he
came 10 the United States and
joined the small colony CT his com
patriots that is prominently and
actively identified with the journal
istic profession of New Yoak.

Harrison for the Defense.

Ind, Dec. 2S.-A
|port comes from inside circles that
heavy retainer has been offered to
president Harrison to appear for
be defense in the trials Of the
|reckers of the Indianapolis
|stional bank, which promises to
) cause celebre to the financial
|orld. The ex-P President was for
bars on particularly close and init
ate terms with President Haughey
ID his family, as we'll as with
rector r. B. Pierce, who is
hongst those indicted, but it is re-
Iided as doubtful whether the ex-
resident will accept a retainer in

THE Slayton (Minn.) Gazette has this
amusing item of news: A young fellow
living few miles out of town, school
teacher, was in town Monday evening in
q high state of excitement. He had
heard that by order of the Pope the
Catholics in this country are to kill all
the Professionals some time during the
mouth of September. He firmly be-
lieved it to be true and stated his deter
mipation to sell his life as dearly IS pos
sible. He exhibited revolver that he
had carried loaded with him the past
two weeks. An encyclical purporting to
have been sent out by the Pope ordering
the massacre has been published IN
number of crank newspapers the past
summer and even the Pioneer Press
published it in supplement form. The
ridiculous part Of it is that anyone
should be heightened by such eenseless
reports, good many in this country are
frightened.

"HAvE we ever had Catholic Presi-
dent, or are we ever likely to have one?'
asked the querulous Miss Elder in the
paper read for her at the Catholic Con-
gress. There is but little chance of see'
ing one elected during her lifetime.
Puritan bigotry must first die before q
Catholic is nominated by either of the
two great parties, and the first to be
nominated will likely be defeated at the
polls. James G. Blaine, one of the
greatest Americans of our age, could
hardly be elected, not because he was
Catholic, for he was not, but because his
mother was one by birth and his father
by conversion. The Church News, OF
Washington, answers the aristocratic
lady Of the South as follows: Miss
Elder probably knows that when the
name of General Sherman was men.
toned for the Presidency many OBJ
iected, not because he was a Catholic,
but because his noble wife was. The
mere mention of General Sheridan for
the Preside cy produced smile among
those who looked upon it as impudence
to even suggest the name OF Catholic
for that high Office.

MRS. ERNEST HART, the founder of the
Donegal industrial fund in London, and
chief of the Irish exhibit in the Midway
Plaisance at the Worlds Fair, appeared
before the House Committee on Ways
and Means at Washington to protest
against the Mckinley tariff on Irish
woollen goods, knitted articles, linens
and laces. She told the committee that
American ladies lay in large stocks of
Irish laces for themselves and their
friends when they arrive in Ireland and
that there is no doubt that the present
high duty is lost to the government SO far
as IRISH laces are concerned, while it pro-
tects no actual industry in the United
States. Mrs. Hart wants her Irish goods
placed on the free list but that cannot
be reasonably done by the committee.

F She vuen accused Catholics of eulogiz>
ing themselves, of talking buncpmbe and
spread eagle, of administering COO much
blarney, and then went on again to re-
buke them in the following strain: 'Who

ever had Catholic president? Ever
come near having one? Even ever had q
Catholic candidate? Ever likely to have

Miss Elder is of Louisiana Catholic stock

slaves before the war. She knows roth
ing Of "a sturdy, intelligent, rural class"
outside of the Creoles and the Negroes,

more garrulous and insulting she became
