THE PRIDE OF KANSAS.
Remarkable Record and Growth Of
the Aetna Loan Co.


Kansas, has surely been rightly
named, The Pride Of our State. 1t
loaned during the month Of December,
1897, over $4,000 to the citizens Of
the State, the savings and small de-
posits of widows, orphans, merchants,
clerks, teachers, doctors, lawyers and
bankers on tirstclass real estate secur-
ity. This company has increased its
capital stock to $4,000, 900 and an &C.
tual increase in cash capital over
$4,000 during the last six months.
1t has shown to eastern capitalists
that Kansas can furnish her own
money and care for her own wants.
In few words, it loans money on
easy payments and offers an invest
ment paying the largest dividends
consistent with absolute security.

| At the outbreak of the present war
Jacob thought his chance had come,
and so at once joined the First Cav
airy, enlisting under his old friend,
risat sei5s 'wfism- fiH regimen
was ordered almost at pT ice to Cuba,
and it was before Sf7tiago that he
and a number of hd7 comrades in
arms fell. "
The last words hi s'father received
from him were written at Tampa,
Fla. He wrote folly letter saying
that he had endure ed so many kinds
of discomforts and4 hardships since he
left home hat HI felt sure when he re.
turned from tile war he would be
able to stand Anything.
Charles D. Jacob, Jr., was twenty
one years of Age last April. He re-
ceived his eaf fly education in the city
schools. Tyhen he attended the Ken
tlcky MILITARY Institute, where he be-
came ffavorite on account of his
jovial di Sposition and fondness for
military tactics.
The sympathy of the entire city is
for Mr.. Jacob, and if there
can fbe any compensation for his be-
aFement, it lies in the knowledge of
thef circumstances attending his sons
death. Surely his name will be
an adornment to the record of the
bravest sacrifices of our American
noblemen.

eaten; that he wanted an alliance
with England, and that the world
should echo to the music of our drums
and cannons of conquest. Mr.. Suter
very frankly confessed to the soft i'm
parchment that his crowd wanted the
entire earth, and the audience laughed.
The speeches made by Judge
Toney and Mr.. McDermott on the
above occasion recalled to the audience
the memories Of 1916, and plainly
and forcibly portrayed the lessons and
warnings taught by the doctrines of
the fathers and founders of the repub-
lie. Both speakers warned the audi
ence against the heresies of modern
iconoclasts who would have our Gov
eminent turn its back upon those
policies under which it has lived so
gloriously for 100 years. They warned
the people of the danger of following
the policy which Spain has followed
for 800 years, and which has brought
her into her present state of national
decreptitude and contempt-the pol
icy Of national aggrandizement and
territorial expansion. They showed
by reference to history that there
never was nation that had adopted
policy Of national ACKNOWLEDGMENT
and territorial expansion that hadn't
fallen of its own weight. AS Judge
Toney said, history proves that ma
tional expansion by conquest was but
a livery to hide multiplied suferings
and lengthening chains, and the
Judge reaffirmed and reasserted the
same opinions in the above interview,
and said that he feared that policy
pursued upon the lines of national
conquest for purely national ag-
grandizement would be the beginning
of the end of our glorious republic.

THANKS FOR OUR VICTORIES
To Be Offered i'm the Roman Catholic
Churches Sanday-Prayers
for the Dead.

Cardinal Gibbons has issued cir.
cular to be read in the Roman Cath
olic churces tomorrow morning, which
is intended to carry out the suggestion
made by President Mckinley that
the people of the land unite in giving
thanks for the victory of the Ameri-
can fleet off Santiago.
The Cardinals letter calls upon the
people to return thanks to Almighty
God ror fis blessing upon the arrasof'
this land in the conflict with the Span
ish fleet, for the victory achieved and
the escape of the Americans, who
sustained comparatively no loss.
The circular further asks that pray
ers be said for an early and bloodless
end to the war. The Cardinal also
directs in his letter that certain pray
ers be said by the clergy at this serv.
Ice Tor the blessings of God.
Thanksgiving services were held in
many Of the churches in New York
last Sunday, in accordance with the
proclamation of President Mckinley,
asking that thanks be returned for the
victories of the American army and
navy. At St. Patrick's Cathedral
prayer of thanks from the Roman
Missal was offered at all the masses,
and the De Profundis was said for the
-epose of the souls of those who have
ALLEN in battle.

A GOOD MAN GONE.

Of Louisville.

Samuel B. McGill, an old and re-
spected Irish resident of this city,
died at his home, o35 Sixth street,
July 4, and the announcement of his
death caused widespread regret. His
age was 62. He had been i'll for sew
eral weeks.
For many years Mr.. McGill con-
Quoted the cigar and tobacco business
on Green street, near Fourth, and re-
Gently moved his business to Jeffer-
son street, from where he retired on
account of poor health. He was one
of the original members of the Cath
Ole Knights of America. He was a
quiet, gentle and unassuming man
and familiar and popular character.
The funeral took place from the
Dominican church July 6. The fact
that the celebrant of the requiem mass
was Father H. McGill, o. p, son of
the deceased, rendered the services
peculiarly impressive. Father Hus-
enfoss, o. p, delivered a beautiful
funeral address, touching upon the
character and Christian life of the
deceased, and compared him with a
soldier who had passed through a
glorious campaign.

was the young man well known and
popular himself, but he was the son
of one of the best and most popular
men in the city and State.
The first news his family and
friends had of his sad death was con.

first it was hoped there might be a
mistake, as the name was spelled
wrong, but later dispatches leave no
doubt as to the sad result.

Mr.. Ellis M. Headley, of this city,
member of Jacobs regiment, who
was left at Fort McPherson, has the
story of the latter's death from wound

as follows:

WHEN AND WHERE 1T MEETS.

The Irish-American Society wa
organized in this city in September
1897. The promoters of this organ
ization are among Louisville's mos
leading and prominent Irish-Amer
lean citizens. The formation of sucl
a society in this city had for its OBJ
ject the bringing together of all Irish
=-fil.eri..sns ir-sss-s -S.>sas compact az
ganization regardless of their religious
or political affiliations, wherein they
might assemble, and, after mature de-
liberation, decide as to what action
upon the part of such an organization
would be productive of the greatest
good for the greatest number, there.
by insuring unity of action in all mat
tiers of public import and a perpetual
struggle for the attainment of the
present and future welfare of their
nationality. That such an organiza-
ton has been an absolute necessity in
Louisville for number of years every
Irish-American realizes. The Irish
people and their descendants are
distinct and separate class of people
unto themselves, and their most char
acteristic trait is the combative spirit,
always divided and arrayed against
themselves in political matters. While
the Irish-American Society has both
Republicans and Democrats of Irish
origin in its makeup, and, while the
bylaws and constitution of the organ
TRITON expressly prohibit any refer
ence to political matters in the So
ciety Of the political affiliation of its
members, nevertheless it is true that
this organization will be silent yet
powerful and influential factor in the
future politics of this city and State,
and as such aspiring politicians shall
have to reckon with it. This refer
ence as to the political course of
this society is not meant to infer that
the organization will be turned into a |
political club, but that, having been
with the sole object in view
Of bringing about closer relationship
and better understanding of the
varied and diversified interests of all
Irish-Americans, and for the advance
ment of their interests in common, it
will, as matter Of course, be recog-
nized that the attainments of such
recognition can only be had through
action on thier part, thereby
demonstrating the wisdom of the
maxim, "In union there is strength"
That the success and future progress
# the society is assured there can be
10 doubt. 1t is yet in its incipiency
