ARCHBIsHoP JANssEHs.

The death OF "A Archbishop Janssens, which occurred on the
steamer, Creole, Thursday June 10th, was sudden and unexpected.
The Archbishop left New Orleans, Wednesday,, June 9th, for New
York en- route to Europe. While at sea he was taken suddenly
ill and died five or six hours aterward while the steamer was
about,15O miles from Tampa, Florida. His remains were brought
back to New Orleans by the steamer, Hudson, and laid to rest last
Wednesday in a crypt beneath the floor of the sanctuary of the
Cathedral.
Archbishop Francis Janssens was the most beloved of all
the Archbishops of the New Orleans see. His death was mourned
not alone by the Catholic community but by the people OF the
whole State, of all denominations.
Archbishop Janssens' death, was, from a Christians stand
point, "a beautiful one. He met death without a fear, without a
doubt that he would be everlastingly rewarded for his Iabors on
earth. His last words to Father Thebnult, the faithful priest, who
nursed the Archbishop and administered to him during his last
sickness, were: 81 am ready; thanks be to God"

THE failure of President
Cleveland to sign the Indian
appropriation bill prevented
that measure from becoming II
law. With the expiration Of
the Fifty-fourth congress, ac-
cording to section I, of article
l, Of the constitution of the
United States published herein.
the bill not having the presi-
dents signature IS of no effect
whatever. This means that the
special session called by Presi-
dent Mckinley to convene
March 10, VIII necessarily take
up the matter of Indian legisla-
ton. As all of the committees
will undergo a general reorgan-
izatiOn it is difficult to say what
will be the result, but it is more
than probable that Sherman of
New York will succeed himself
as chairman of the committee
on Indian affairs in the house
and that Fisher, Curtis and
Little will remain on the COM
mittee. Should this be the
case the policy Of the commit
tee will probably remain I'M
changed as this force will dom
mate. No great change will be
made III the personnel Of the
senate and it may be that the
original bill as agreed on in
conference will be enacted into
law during the special ses-
sion.
