Wheat and silver.

OF late years we have heard great
deal about the fraternal relations of
wheat and silvcr-how they are COM
mercial twins. affected by the same con-
ditions and holding precisely the same
ratio. If you want to see where wheat
and silver go together-or potatoes and
farm products generally, for that mat
ter-go on tho ST. Paul & Duluth rail-
road, or Duluth Short Line, and see
the prosperous farms and we'll establish
ed communities, indicating that the peo'
ple have the silver and the gold and
paper money, while the other fellows
have the farm products. Always pro-
ductive, the farms along this line are
always successful. And this line is the
peoples popular route, which should al
ways be taken between the Twin Cities
and the head of the lakes, because OF
it's service and facilities. For informa-

Mgr. Nugent of LIVERPOOL.

The following appeared in the Min
neapolis Times the other day and will
be read with interest by the readers
of the Irish Standard:
The twin cities are honored by the
presence of a distinguished prelate
well known in social circles of Europe.
Right Rev. Monslgnor Nugent, of Liver
pool.
During his stay in the Northwest
the monsignor consented to lecture on
the WAITS and Strays of Liverpool"
at st. Stephens church, corner Clinton
avenue and Twenty street, last
Thursday evening.
Monsignor Nugent finished his class
ical education at the well-known col
lege of Harrow, England, and after
wards entered the famous seminary ut
ushaw, where he finished a brilliant
course in theology.
After being ordained to the priest
hood he spent several years
In parcchial work. when he
was appointed chaplain at Chat
ham prison, where he had splen
did opportunity to learn to know the
causes that drove men to crime. Feel
ing that social reform begins with re-
moving the causes and conditions, that
breed criminals, he devoted his life to
rescue the waits and strays OF Liver
pool, and so he established "The Boys
Refuge" an institution in which the
abandoned children CT the street found
an asylum and where they were given
an opportunity to develop the good
that was in them.
At first it was uphill work, but his
indefatigable zeal soon accomplished
that, and help came on all sides, and
now Liverpool may boast Of several
Institutions. mainly the result of in-
domitable energy Of the philanthropic
monsignor, where the abandoned waits
of the crowded seaport have found a
true friend and father.
Years do not weigh heavily ON Mon
signor Nugent, and though nearly an
octogenarian, his voice is still clear as
bell and capable of filling the largest
auditorium.
His lecture at St. Stephens church
dealt with his life work among the waits
Of Liverpool, and during these days
when the social problem is so much
discussed word from gentleman
with the monsignor's experience in the
uplifting of humanity cannot fail to be
full Of interest to the Minneapolis pub
