The New Catholic Church to be
Erected at EdgingtOn Lane---The
Building Committee Securing Sub
scrip.iOls.-A Supper to Be Given

At different times has the matter been
brought up among the people of Edging-
tons Lane and its surroundings that a
Catholic church was necessity. Ihey
are prevented by the creek from going to
Mont de Chantal. and it is only by sacri-
flee of money and time that they can get
10 town. AT last they laid their plans be-
fore the Rt Rev. Bishop in regard to
church. He most willingly consented and
also promised to give ground enough to
build the church. school and priests resi-
dence.
A church committee was formed COM
posed of Peter Dieringer. Peter Gsorch,
Walter Burk and Leopold. Rev Father
Kluser. at present chaplain of Mont de
Chantal. received from the Bishop the
charge of preparing the work for the
erection of the new parsonage. lmmedi-
ately the collecting was begun, Bishop
Donahue being the first donator, starting
the subscription list with the neat sum OF
$500. until now the collections among the
Catholics in Edgington and its surround
ings are very satisfactory and encourage
ing It is hoped to have some good-hearted
neighbors to assist.
Donations for the new church, which
will bear the name of st. Michael. viii be
thankfully accepted by Rev. Father Kiuser
and the church committee In connection
with the new church, the people are very
enthusiastic about the supper which the
ladies are going to give next Wednesday
evening, February oath in Seibert's pavil-
lion. for the benefit Of the new church.
They have already sold 800 tickets. They
promise good Square meal" and a fine
time. Prof. George Biz and Henry Men
kemeller will appear and make it very en-
tertaining Concert music will be rendered

ALL FAVOR THE PLAN.

the Free Rural Delivery System Praise

1t.
Washington, February 2O.-The post
masters and patrons at every one OF the
fortv-four postoffices where rural free
delivery has been in operation declare
in favor of the plan. The test has been
going on only for limited period, but
the offices were so distributed as to
make the experiment complete, and 1t
was developed at points in thirty-three
or thirty-four States. The reports are
all in. and the important data gathered
will be transmitted by Postmaster Cen
eral Wilson in a special report to Con-
gress probably early next week Inc
sentiment favorable to the adoption OF
the comprehensive scheme is unanl-
nous, representing opinions given by
both the heads of each postoilce anu
the patrons. The obstacle, however,
is the tremendous cost involved. When
the experiment was first contemplated
it was roughly estimated that rural
free delivery TO cover the whole coun-
try would involve an annual eXpehdl-
ture of over twenty millions or dollars,
hit the experience already had shows
that forty millions is a conservative
figure. The cost of the service is found
of course to have varied with the char
acter of the country where it was per-
formed, sparsely settled regions nat
urally heavily increasing the expense.
Thus in one county in Massachusetts
the difference Of conditions necessita-
ted the establishment Of the expert
ment at three points, and the postmas-
tiers report difference Of several cents
between them as to the cost CT delivery
per letter. The maximum cost OF de-
liyering each piece Of mail matter was
between six and seven cents at Harris
Vile and less than seven mills at Green
field. in Franklin county, Mass.
The average cost per letter is fixed at
q little over three cents in these rural
deliveries. There are many places
however, where delivery OF mail Is i'm
possible. and these aggregate a large
norton of the country. The least dlfil-
Guilty in the way OF the general adop-
ton of the scheme is in the Eastern
states. though a number of Western
points. like the country adjacent TO
Denver. Col. show comparatively
small cost. officials believe that the
service can be adyantageously estab-
Iished in a number of well settled re-
pions Postmaster General Wilson has
not vet drafted his report, but it Is be-
lieved he will demonstrate the value
of continuance Of the experiment FOR
one year.

SOME MUD.
A Picture of the Situation Up Caldweli's
/


The mud up Caldwell's run is some
thing awful The girls up the run are
all compelled to wear gum boots and
the boys to lay their billed" shirts
aside on account of the muddy, splash
ing mire There is always a muddy
transformation in the appearance of the
unlucky pedestrian who happens to
walk along the sidewalk up the run
whenever a horse or team passes. So
much do they splash the mud in all
directions that whenever a wagon or
vehicle comes in sight the person on
foot always runs into the first yard
and remains at a safe distance until the
horses pass by. This is the only way
to evade being covered with the sat
urated soil, and the residents all along
the run have kindly removed or keep
their gates open for persons who find
themselves in this predicament.

A theatre manager can always count on
a certain number of regular patrons and
depends upon the strength of his attrac
ton TO catch the "occasionals." The re
gulars" cut quite a figure in his calcua-
tions. however Many of them attend with
Christian regularity. no matter what the
nature of the performance may be. This
is especially true of the Grand. The tick
ct seller recognizes these regular patrons,
and knows just what seat is wanted before
it is asked for. There is one boy who is
"first-nghter" Every Monday and Thurs
day he is at the door of the theatre at
seven o'clock, and Is usually the first per-
son to buy a ticket He sits at the same
place in the front row in the gallery. and
while waiting for the curtain to rise, in
variably reads yellow back literature. His
taste runs to blood-curdling border dramas
and he thinks the stage is progressing
backward. but he patronizes all produc-
tions. SO regular is he in his attendance
that the patrons Of the house invariably
look for his white head on opening nights.

A recent London dispatch says:
One of the many projects put
forward for celebrating Queen
Victoria's record reign this year
has been the extension of nursing
homes for poor people. This sug.
gestion has made considerable
financial Roadway under the
amiable guidance of the Duke of
Westminster, but the promise of
its great success is now threaten
ed by a vigorous denunciation
from Arnold White, the philan-
thropist and philosopher, who de-
clares that the scheme is one that
will directly conduce To- the null
tiplication of the unfit. lie makes
it clear that he is not averse to
nursing homes, indeed, he means
to support the scheme, but at
the same time he demands that
there sh IL be an investigation in.
to the national manufacture of in
valids, and the conditions under
which incurables are multiplied
and tainted lives are enabled to
re ..roduce their kind.
He says: What is aimed at is
not murder or neglect of sufferers
who have entered the world, but
to obtain partial control over the
supply of the suffering. The
marked improvement IN the ply
sique of French aad German peo-
Pile since their adoption of com
pulsory military service is SO re-
markable that even English hos
pital authorities might we'll pom
der over the deterioration of fiber
among certain classes of their

diers of 1896 are vastly superior

The foreign Generals note the
contrast between the physical
renaissance of the Continental
nations and the fools paradise in
which England bssks. Our Sc
parate caste of fighting men, our
cult of sickness and worship of
weakness, our needless CONVEX
sion of the rural population into

cheerful dependence on food pro.
duced by healthy races and posi-
