NOTES FROM ST ROSES.
DEATH OF SIS TER ANToNIA.


 Father Fox received word, last Satur day, from Burlington, Vt., that hls niece nun in St Mary's convent of that place was dead. Her name in religion was Sis ter Antonia. In the world she was knowr as Bridget Farrelly. Born in County Cavan, Ireland, in the year 1871 she was only 24 years at the time of her demise She came to this country about nine years ago and lived with her uncle, who was then pastor of Lakeville for two years. While there she attended St Jos. eph's convent. She made at school many friends who will be sorry indeed tn learn that their dear friend and companion has departed this life at such a tender age. When Miss Farrally came to the use of reason, and ever afterwards until her de- sires were realized, she manifested great love for holy and sacred things and sin ,cere wish to serve God in a special man. lner. And so in the year 1888 she entered St Mary's convent at Burlington, Vt., as "a postulant and in due time she received rhe white veil and afterwards the black The sisters who were her associates speak in the most eloquent terms of her beau tiful character. They sum all her grand qualities in "She was indeed a true Sis ter in every sense of the expression" '" Sister Antonis leaves behind her to mourn her depart1re father, mother, two sisters and two brothers. Two of her sisters and her youngest brother make their home with their uncle, Their many friends in Newtown sympathize with them in this their time of sadness. Father Fox was unable to attend the funeral which took place in Burlington, Monday morning. However on Wednes- day morning at 10 o'clock a solemn high , mass was celebrated at St Roses for the , repose of the soul of Sister Antonia. The , celebrant of the mass was Father Fox, assisted by Father O'Connell of Bethel tas deacon, Father Daly of East Hartford as sub deacon and Father Smith as mas iter of yeesemonies.

The ignorance of the Bible among

1t is significant also of a deeper m!scar-

We seem to be astouiShed that we can
not have pubic virtue without private
virtue, and that fair legislative and
executive machine will not produce an
honest and temperate community. We
have got into the habit Of looking to
legislation for everything, and if legs
iation Will not answer, then to a change
Of the organic or constitutional law.
The first thought that occurs to Us about
any evil in the social body is that we
ought h Iegisiate about it, and it does
not often occur to us than the only real

we cannot have a good state without

and in offices, that we can cast out the

method than by making voters and
legislators honest and honorable The

| He was admIueu To the bar in the
spring of 1868, and in the fall Of that
year was elected district attorney of
Grant county, holding that office for
two terms.
In the fall of 1863, Hon. J. Allen
Barber offered to take him as partner
This offer Mr.. ClemcntsOn accepted and
the law firm of Barber x Clementson
continued until Mr.. BARRIERS death in
1881. Upon Mr.. BARRIERS election to
congress in 1872, and from that time on,
the management of the firms extern
sive law practice fell entirely upon Mr..
Clementson. BY hard study and strict
attention to business, and the ability he
displayed in the trial of cases, he speed
lily placed himself in the front rank of
the bar of Southwestern Wisconsin, and
when it became a question who should
be brought out to oppose Judge Goth
rem at the judicial election in ISS2, the
sentiment was unanimous that it should
be Mr.. Clcmcntson. Although the
judicial circuit was Republican, Judge
COthrcn's popularity with the people
was so great that he had been elected
III 1876 by over POO majority. The
Republican convention to nominate a
candidate for Judge of the fifth circuit
was held in Dod@cville in February.
1852; without dissenting vote it nomi-
mated Mr.. Clcmentson; and ter
most exciting campaign he was elected
by over ;, 200 majority. When his first
term expired, Judge CIemcntson in
formed his friends that lie would never
again be a party candidate Tor a judicial
office. In 1855 and again last spring he
was elected Judge of the fifth circuit as
a nOn-partisan candidate Since his
election to the bench thirteen years
ago, Judge CIementson has absolutely
refrained from taking any part in poll
ties.
Judge ClcmentsOn was very reluctant
to come out az candidate against Judge
Winsow, but the pressure brought to
bear upon him was SO great that he at
last yielded.
Judge CicmentSon stands very high
as a judge, his fairness being one Of his
conspicuous characteristics. He is not
a stickler for legal tcchnicaIities, but
every liti9ant in his court is assured
that he will receive Justice whether he
be rich or poor. Among the recent
notable cases in which Judge Clement
son has presided is that of John b.
koettIng the Milwaukee ok banker
