the old ferryman, for the girls father
never actually earned a cent Of it, and II
he had TO depend upon his own efforts

THE LATE BOYLE o'REILLY.

Father Fulton preached the funeral
sermon over the remains Of John Boyle
O'Reilly, and today the aptest expression
Of the universal grief over the death Of
this beloved and gifed priest is to be
found in the poem written by O'Reilly
on the occasion of Father Fulton's de-
parture from Boston in 1880.
s'The cold affection that plain duty
breeds
May see its union severed and approve;
But when our bond is touched, it throbs
and bleeds;
We pay no need Of duty, but of love-
Fifteen years have elapsed since these
lines were written, the lamentable event
which recalls them with even greater
force than the occasion which served as
their inspiration, maturing meanwhile
in the womb Of time. In the interim
the poet himself who wrote them has
been called away, and it was Father
Fulton's sad privilege to reciprocate over
his bier the fervent affection poured into
the verses by the man who always dip
ped his pen in the currents of his heart.
Now that Father Fulton himself has
been summoned to the reward Of his
long and remarkably efficient career,
this touching circumstance in the story
of two of the best loved men who have
lived and labored in Boston in several
generations will impress their admirers
as a coincidence to be fondly remember
ed.
Father Fulton was singu1arly gifted
man. He united the qualities of a priest,
the sage, the wit, the poet, and the man
of affairs, in g. manner remarkable for
the way he blended all Of these traits
into unity and effectiveness. His life
work was thereby made wonderfully
successful along lines of original and
individual force, and his character and
methods were such as to win for him
love as we'll as fame. His mental equip
ment fitted him had, his life been SO or
dained, to compete for literary repute
with the most talented American men Of
letters. His native wit and literary
gifts were, however, by him subordf-
mated and made subservient to his more
noble work as a man of God. But if the
literary genius was lost in the priest,
the priests career was made thereby all
the happier to himself and more influ-
entail on the lives Of the hosts who came
within the limits of his priestly activity.
Father Fulton had no Boswell and left
no original writings; but the name Of
those who will cherish his words of wit
and wisdom, and, better still, will feel
the impress of his personality and inf1u-
ence in the conduct Of their lives, is le-
gion.

whom he came III contact, that he dom
mated events and carried points, when

matte and unstable, like actors who play
to the gallery gods for plaud.ts of vulgar
souls, are men like Garibaldi and Cam
beta, who pose as patriots and chiefs. In
one of the fiercest political conflicts of
modern times, where closeness Of rela-
tionship lent the final touch Of bitterness
to the struggle for supremacy, the innate
nobility Of the man showed brayely.
Tenderest of Judges, he hated the sin but
loved the sinner. with charity toward
all men, and malice for none his golden
memory claims love ais well as homage

miro forbearance and honor the quality Of

Lincoln deserve to be followed, in high

FORGOTTEN FRIENDSHIP.

How soon the friendship Of nations is
disturbed. During the worlds Fair in
Chicago, almost everything was Spanish.
Repr esentatives from the country were
dfned and wined and receptions of all
kinds were held in their honor. Silver
tongued orators poured forth in eloquent
words the everlasting amity and good will
that must always exist between the two
countries. One Of the Spanish dukes who
was over here at the time lost his fortune
shortly after returning home through
stock jobbing or other species of gam
bling and this coming to the ears of this
country it was proposed to reimburse him
from contributions from citizens Of this
country. The brother of that duke learn
ing Of the prospective good luck of the
other one set up q whine that he too had
lost his fortune by the same methods ae
his brother had and he thought he should
receive equally good treatment. And 1t
was at one time seriously contemplated
to raise fortunes for both of these men.
Why? Because christopher Columbus, .
Spanish gentleman, was one of the dis
.coverers OF this country and the people
here were on a tidal wave Of Spanish ed

Ithan the whites had given them credit
fol. If the idea IS to keep the black
Tinhn from voting in Mississippi some
other method must be pursued h
The same trouble has been expert
enced in South Carolina. a constitu
tional convention is now being held In
that state and the intention is to change
the qualification Of the voter in such 9
way that the negro will not continue to
be in the ascendant, SO far at least,
as voting numbers are concerned. The
committee on suffrage has made a re-
port which states, first, that qualified
voters must be registered and that the
person applying for registration must
be able to read and write any section in
the proposed state constitution, or must
show that he owns or pays taxes on
$500 worth OF property In the state, II,
however, upon the first registration,
and until a certain stated time there
after male persons of voting age
can read clause in the constitution or
understand and explain it when read
to them by the registration officer they
shall be eligible to register and become
electors. A person thus qualified to
register shall remain during his life
time qualified voter, unless convicted
OF some disqualifying crime. Other
minor restrictions are set forth in this
portion Of the proposed constitution,
but the essentials are as here set forth.
The qualifications for an elector under
the proposed constitution of South Car
Dina do not appear to be very exacting,
nor would they be to the most ordinary
citizen, but the black men Of that state
and other states in the South are not
even ordinary citizens. Their intellec-
tual attainments are as yet Of the most
limited character, as a rule, and as a
consequence the proposed qualifications
will, in the majority of cases, prevent
them from becoming voters. But after
all, the very methods proposed to keep
the black man! from voting, and conse-
quently keep him from attaining power,
may be the means Of placing that power
in his hands. The advanced men of
the black race in the SOUTH teachers,
politicians and others-are ever on the
alert in procuring educational advan-
tages for their people, and although the
qualifications for an elector may be
difficult now they will be mastered,
and should still more restricting quail
fications be imposed q new stimulus will
be given them and the negro, under the
impulse and constant direction of his
ambitious teachers, will meet the intel
lectual exactions required of him. Thus
step by step the white man will be the
indirect means of educating the very
men he intended to suppress through
their ignorance, and they, by their SUI
perior numbers, will eventually not
only crowd the white man to the wall
in: all matters where rivalry exists but
will take, in all probability, into their
own hands the management OF political
affairs.
The negro question of the South is
one not easy of solution.

The Mora claims were paid over TO the
respective claimants this week by the
state department. Antonio- Maxima
Mora, the principal claimant, received
500, 900; Dr. Jose !. Rodriguez, the attor-
ney in the case since 1870, received $751;
600; and Nathanial Page, one time an at
torney in the case $2s5,0oO. The origin
al agreement between all the parties was
that Mora was to receive 60 per cent Of
the amount recovered and all the others
40 per cent to be divided among them.

this money through contemplated claims
for injuries TO Cuba by citizens Of this

CATHOLICS in POLITICS.

The Chicago Tribune recently attacked
the Catholics who are in politics and the
subject becoming too gingerly for the
editor of the Dubuque Telegraph he ans
wers as follows:
| So far as Dubuque city and county are
concerned it may be said that they are
largely Democratic because Of prohibit
tion. Before the adoption of the amend
ment and the enactment of the Donnan
law the Republicans ruled the city, and
they frequently elected their legislative
and other candidates in the county. They
| had. firm foothold here till by fatuous
legislation their party alienated large
numbers Of citizens of German nativity
and Cathoic belief who had formerly act
ed with it. The same thing occurred in
Davenport, That town although a ma
joritly Of <itss people are Professionals, was
converted from q Republican to a Demo
cratic city by legislation which wrought
the change in Dubuque Prohibition Is
responsible for the strength of the Demo
crazy in this city and county, and there is
no reason to doubt that if a sensible gen
eral license or local option law were sub
stituted the local Republicans would
soon regain all that they have lost and
acquire enough additional strength to
control. 's
While it is true that there are more
fl,,o,, ~ of
flee here the fact results from the circum-
stance that there are more Catholics than
Protestants in the community. No man,
however, is nominated for and elected to
office because he is a Catholic, nor is a
citizen who aspires to public place dis
eliminated against because he is Pro-
testant. Were religion made q test there
would not be a non-C Catholic in Office In
city OF, county. That there are many In
office proves that religion is not made a
test. The two district judges, elected by
the voters OF the county, are Protestants;
only two Of the six members Of the board
I.of education are Catholics. There are
several Protestants in the city council,
and in November last ward eight tenths

William Wetmore Storey, the artist.
poet and sculptor, died on Monday last
at Vallambrosa, at the residence OF his
daughter.
William Wetmore Storey, artist, sculp-
tor, and poet, was born at Salem, Mass,
Feb. IL, 1919, and was the son of Joseph
Storey, associate Justice of the supreme
court of the United States, and famous
commentator on the constitution. He
was graduated at Harvard in 1880 and
at its law department in 1874, where he
studied under his fathers direction. He
was admitted to the bar and devoted his
attention largely to the preparation Of
law reports and a treatise on contracts.
AT the same time he was frequent con-
tributor of both prose and verse to the
Boston Miscellany, and other periodic
ais. In 1874 Mr.. Storey delivered the
Phi Beta Kappa poem at Harvard Oh
Mature and Art" in which he indicated
the tastes which we're to govern his flu
ture life His first volume Of poems was
published in 1847 and in 1855 he deltv-'
cred a poem at the dedication of the stat
ute Of Beethoven at the Boston Music
Hall. In l848 his .fondness for art led
to his going to Italy, where he has ever
since resided, devoting his attention
chiefly to sculpture. His statue to his
father in the chapel of Mount Auburn
cemetery, of Edward Everett in the Bes-
ton, and Joseph Quincy, and the sitting
statue of Chief Justice Marshall, in front
of the west terrace of the capitol at
Washington, are we'll known examples OF
his art and he modelled bronze statue
of George Peabody, which was erected in
London in 1869, and replica Of which
was presented in 1888 to the city Of Bal
timore, through the liberality Of Robert
Garrett. He was United States COM
missioner on fine arts to the Worlds
Fair at Paris in 1879, and has received
decorations from France and Italy. Mr..
Storey held professorship in the Aca-
demia Degli Arcadi Sta Cecilia, and had
received the degree Of D. G. L. in the
University Of Bologne on it's S00th ami
versary. Among his other works are
