to their aid in the next election, and
SO to stave off for many years in

But those who see a little further
into the future must perceive the in
evitable results Of such a policy of
postponement, and tremble for its
possible consequences. There is one
way. perhaps, of averting the worst OF
these, and that is by a general re-
modelling OF the system by which
members of the Senate are elected.
The transfer of the choice from the

themselves may have a salutary effect.
At least the Senators so elected will

viciously intrenched behind a bull

thing is not done in the near future to
reform the Senate, its course will lead
to a disruption of the country on
issues of sectional prosperity. The
present state of things cannot last
much longer.

LECTURE BY FATHER MAoKEL
Spoke of Catholic Progress in st
Bridget,s Hall Last Night.

Rev. Father Mackel of st. MichaeFs
Church 1ectrlred at st. Bridgets School Hall
last night ON the Progress of the Catholic
Religion" He was greeted with a large
audience and his remarks were well received.
Father Mackers lecture was a history of
Catholicism in this country. He claimed
that the discovery of America was due to a
Catholic aided by Catholic priests n a
Catholic Queen. That the first explorers
were Franciscan Domican and Jesuit priests
who explored every northern State and es-
tablished missions among the Indian tribes.
In 1889 Jacques and Roymbailt passed around
Lake Huron and preached faith among the
Chippewas as far as Lake Superior. They
were put to death after great suffering.
After Quebec was founded missionaries were
sent to the great lakes and through Maine to
the s~eacoast and their religion was carried
to the Mississippi.
Father Mackel said that the first Colonial
Assembly at jamestown in 1919 was the birth
place of civil liberty, but not OF religions:
Lord Baltimore went to Virginia III search or
an asylum for his prosecuted brethren, but
he met with an unwelcome reception. He
crossed the Potomac and founded Maryland.
His son Leonard followed with 200 persons
and they created a cross and returned
thanks They purchased. instead OF steal
ing, lands from the Indians and Maryland

while at this time Catholics were not toler-
ated in New England.
In 1852 Governor Andres was succeeded by
Governor Dougan of New York, a Catholic.
The first Legislative Assembly of New York
was convened by him, October so, 1858, and
it passed the Charter of Liberty giving
freedom of conscience. When James Ii.
became King of England, he r~eappointed
Governor Andres in 1888 and the first act of
the Legislature under him was to repeal the
freedom of conscience law and to exclude
Catholics from the privilege of the Bill of
Rights. 1t was made death for a priest to
enter New York and $1,000 fine for harbor-
ing a priest.
The signing of the Declaration of INDIE
pendence not only involved the colonies in
war, but put in jeopardy the lives and
fortunes of the colonists. But every one
was of iron nerve and full of patriotism,
zeal and -unconquerable bravery. Charles
Carroll of Carrolton staked upon the issue
more property than all the other signers put
together. He was appointed with DR.
Franklin, COMMISSIONS to Canada in behalf
his religion Bishop Carroll was sent to
Canada also and whenever Washington
afterwards passed through Baltimore he al
ways called on Bishop Carroll, who on one
occasion gave an grafton on Washington.
Among other Catholic patriots were Lafay-
cite, Rochambeau, Flieny, De eros, Pulaski,
De Kalb and Kosciusko.
Father Mackel next in warm terms re-
ferred to the aid rendered in the wal of 1878
and the Rebellion by Catholics and concluded
by declaring that in time the American
people would concede the position held by
Catholics on the school question to be a

4 FREE SHIP BILL.
introduced in Congress -Efeet,
If Passed, On American
Ship Building.

WASHINGTON. Feb. %, 1S94.-The free ship
foreign built vessels, will be one of the
measures that will be brought to the atten-
ton of the House shortly after the pending
seigniorage bill is disposed of. The bill was
introduced by Representative Fithian of
Illinois, and referred to the Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries, of which he
is chairman, and reported back ~favorably.
Mr.. Fithian will open the debate for the bill
with a strong argument in its favor. He has
made a careful study of the subject and ac-
cumulated a min of information bearing
upon it. 1t was his purpose TO offer the bill
as an amendment to the paragraph
of the Wilson Tariff bill adj
uniting the materials OF ~shipbuild-
ing free of duty. 1t was believed, however,
that the amendment might justify some of
the Atlantic coast members in voting against
the Tariff bill, and the suggestion, therefore,
was not adopted. Mr.. Fithian said this
morning that the bill would undoubtedly
pass the House. He would not predict what
its fate would be in the Senate; but he saw
no reason to doubt that it would pass that
body also. He added that the present bill
differs from the one reported by him in the
last Congress In leaving the coasting trade
still in the hands of Am~erican-built vessels,
and limiting foreign ships to ocean trade.
EFFECT ON SHIPBUILDING.
eWhat effect do you hin the bill will
nave upon our American ship building in
terests!n Mr.. Fithian was asked.
al do not see how the effect can be hurt
full to our people. Under the Mckinley law
lumber, hemp, wire rope, iron and steel
rods and all other material that enters into
the construction of vessels now enters the
United States free of duty. In cases of this
sort we can only judge the future by the
past. When the United States controlled
the ship building of the world the English
Government began buying their ships where
they could get them cheapest. and now they
are the leading ship owners and ship build
ers of the world. An abundance OF ships
leads to an equal amount of repairing, and
this in turn stimulates the whole industry.
FLY THE AMERICAN
Away back in 1869, Senator Sherman of
Ohio made a speech advocating free ships.
His argument then was, that since we can
not build these vessels within 20 or 30 per
cent. of the cost in Eglaud, why net admit
them? He believed that we should raise the
American flag upon these vessels, put Amer
lean officers on their decks and have Amer
lean lines instead of British lines. He said
if the bill then before the Senate should pass,
authorizing foreign ships whens owned by
American citizens to be given an American
registry, one half the lines between New
York and England would be American in
sixty days. What was true then" continued
Mr.. Fithian, sis equally true now, But | am
a little curious to know how Senator Sher-
man will vote when the bill comes before the
Senate"

grown short, at all events, and reach only
TO the elbow. The old fashioned bertha,
amplifled to suit the present taste, is much
used with both high and low bodices, and
lace is employed in profusion.
The latest models for theater and even
ing wear nave no basque, or at most a short
friIl or fare just below the waist line, which
gives a suggestion of the farthingale. Ac-
Gordon plated pierrot rufus have made
their appearance as accessories to add to the
bizarre effect. One black velvet Inner bod
Ice seems simplicity itself among SO many
fri1ls and furbelows. It is entirely plain
and cut with short fiaring basque. Thu
low neck is round and has a sort of plain
collar or pelerine wide over the shoulders
and tapering to nothing where it meets in
front. The elbow sleeves consist of a dou-
BILE puff of velvet, with lengthwise bands of
p~assementerie sewed on. A band of passe-
menterie comes from under the arms and
runs up to a point at the junction of the col
lar in front, Stimulating a ~corselet.
The theater corsage chosen for illustra-
lion is also of velvet, but of a less severe
style. The close fitting velvet bodice has a
ribbon velvet belt fastening in front under
a rosette with long ends. Below the belt
expands a very narrow box plating of the
velvet. Al plastron of ivory lace, wide
across the chest, tapers down to a point at
the waist line and is crossed over the bust
by two velvet bands ending in r~osettes.
The elbow sleeves are composed of ribbon
velvet and lace and terminate in velvet
loops and @ lace frill. A velvet rosette
adorns each shoulder and closes the high
collar.
