GAVE UP A FORTUNE.

Henry Van Rensselaer,, who was adj
mitted into full brotherhood of the
Society of Jesus in New York the other
day, renowned a high social position
which as a descendant of one of the
oldest families in the metropolis he
might have taken, and a big fortune
as well. The social position he has
never cared for, because he has de-
voted the past twenty years of his life
to the Catholic church. The large
fortune which he inherited he has used
mainly in religious work. Both Of
these he gave up when he took the
final VOWS of poverty, chastity and
obedience.
From now on this scion of one of
New York's most powerful and veal
thy families will be known simply us
Father Van Rensselaer,, and he will be
subject to the same life of self abnega-
ton as is every other Jesuit priest. He
has no further choice as to the field in
which his labors shall be conducted.
and, although he has contributed vast
sums to the church. he can never
again possess a dollars worth of prop
erty which he can call his own
Father Van Rensselaer, was born in
1851 of Protestant parents. His father
Gen. Henry Van Rensselaer,, was a
son of Gen. Stephen Van Rensselaer,.
the ninth and last of the famous old
shrewd old pioneers who reduced TO
servile peasantry the freemen of the
new world and piled up enormous for
tunes before the colonists put stop
to their methods.
Twenty years ago Father Van Rens-
seIaer left the Episcopal church and
was received into the Jesuit order He
spent the next three years in an Eng
lish Jesuit college and returned TO
Frederick, Md, where he took his first
VOW During the next four years he
took a theological course and was then
ordained to the priesthood, being as
signed to St Francis Xavier'S church
in New York. Since then he has
spent large sums of money in his
church work. Although nominally he
is liable to be ordered to do mission
work in almost any part of the earth,
it is not at all probable that such or
ders will be given.
Father Van Rensselaer's mother.
who still lives in New York, is Pro-
testant but his two sisters have en-
braced the Catholic religion. One of
them, Miss Euphemia, became sister
of charity and now, as Sister Mary
Dolores, is sister superior of the Home
for Consumptives at Spuyten Duyvil.

Der of deputies today routed about
fifty strikers who were planning a de-

them and read the sheriff's proclama-

After arguing with the men for some

When the deputies arrived they chased
the strikers into camp, keeping up a

holding meetings in all towns of the
district and the end of the strike seems
as distant as ever.

LONDON, Sept. Especial inquiries
throughout Ireland fully corroborate
the alarming predictions cabIed Sat
urday of the failure of the harvest and
a consequent impending famine. Cries
of warning to the government are
rising in a crescendo scale from all
parts of Ireland. They are not con-
fined as in former years of distress
to the congeSted districts on the west
ern seaboard. From Mullinger. one of
the most prosperous parts of the mid
lands, a correspondent telegraphs:
The crops are now irretrievably de-
stroyed. 1t will be impossible for the
farmers to make anything of their
cereals this year, as they are quickly
rotting. In the churches, Sunday,
prayers for fine weather were recited,
and if a change does not come i'm
mediately the crops might as we'll be
left to manure the ground"
From County Wexford, noted as one
of the richest in the country the It'd
ings are: "The grain crop may be de-
scribed as a gigantic failure in County
Wexford this year The greater part
of the potato crop is only fit for feed
ing cattle"i
From Fermanagh, in Ulster, a cor
respondent telegraphs: cat a meeting
held here to ask for reduction in
rents, the parish priest presiding de-
clared that not since Black 1847 have
the prospects for farmers in this dis
trict been so bad. In several places
the potatoes have been failure. Hun

From Carlow, known as 'the model
county," comes this dispatch: "There
is before our farmers an outlook as
disastrous as it is possible to conceive.
owing to the frightful weather. A
great deal of the corn cut early re-
mains in the stalks, injured beyond
recovery. In many districts the farm
ers have been unable to cut their
crops, which present the saddenine
spectacle of being leveled to the earth
by the persistent rains, while a mass
OF second growth and weeds has come
up. The approximations concerning po-
tatoes also have been dismally real
lied"
At a meeting of the board of guard
ianS at Mitchellstown, County Cork.
the chairman said: 1.-The potato crop
is generally failure, while the other
crops have been hopelessly injured by
the unparalleled inclemency of the
season. We are on the verge of a
great agricultural crisis. The outlook
in farming affairs is gloomy in the
extreme, and to aggravate the condi-
ton of affairs caused by the failure
of the potato crop, the prices of pro-
visions are considerably increased, and
before long the people who are SUP
posed to contribute to the poor rates
would be in warehouses; themselves"
These evidences of the widespread
character of the ruin wrought by the
inclement season are merely samples
from numerous reports received The
Irish government has adopted no
measure yet to cope with the threat.
