It is very we'll known in st. Paul that
the twenty fourth general convention OF
the Catholic Total Abstinence Union Of
America is to meet there on August l, to
continue in session some four days. But
| it is not generally known that the gath
ering is to be an exceedingly large one.
The temperance people have ell along
built upon big convention, and have
been working to that end, but the most
important thing they have 50 Ear done is
| to secure from the Western Passenger
Association one fare rate for the round
trip for all who may visit the city at that
time. The attendance now is likely to
Ibe between 700 and 5,o00, and becomes
amatter Of much moment to the oily.
Nothing Is being left undone TO make the
convention 3 grand success from every
standp point. Archbishop Ireland 5Was g
