The Comic German Press.

FROM tHe F>PW lork IlHies
Few disclosures concerning current events
are more comic than the comments of the
reptilian German press upon our conduct
of the negotiations at Paris. How base,
how greedy, how barbarous, they say, is
the conduct of the Yankees in demanding
islands which we may want for ourselves.

Insurance Paid Promptly.
Editor Irish Standard:

The following, I know, will be of in
terest to most of the readers of the Irish
Standard in the state Of Minnesota and
especially those vino are insured in the
A. o. H. Life Insurance Fund.
At the Brainerd convention the plan
of assessing members at each death was
repealed and in lieu thereof monthly
plan of assessing was adopted, which en-
ables us to pay our claims promptly up
on receipt of satisfactory death proofs,
instead of waiting for the period Of
seventy days as heretofore. as the fol-.
lowing will testify:
On Saturday, November 18, 1898,
Thomas Riley, of Division No. 1, Wash
ington county, died of gastric cancer,
and on the Wednesday following the
23rd inst, his wife, the beneficiary
named in his certificate, received the full
amount thereof Considering the loca-
ton of the different officers through
whose hands the Death proofs" have to
pass for approval, also tho draft which
has to be mailed to the treasurer, who
lives in distant town, for his signature,
I doubt if this record can be equaled
The officers expect In the future to
follow out this policy Of rropmtness and
when deaths occur it IS The duty of the
insurance secretary to forward notice of
death at once tih
During the past yeat :23s deaths have
occurred and the claims paid and sur
plus or reserve of $4,000 still remains
in the treasury.

Miller drew loud applause. Masters
Cosgrove and Gowan gave excellent
Rotations. The dialogue by Masters
Maginnis, Poirier, Mcleod and Summers
produced most pleasing effect. The
debate on the Indian question by Messrs.
Dacey, O'Keefe. McCue and Pember
manifested deep thought and careful re-
search.
The main feature of the evening was
an address on total abstinence by Rev.
John Feehely, assistant at the cathedral.
The reverend gentleman treated the
question in an eloquent manner, and is
evidently great advocate of total alb
stinence. The following is brief
synopsis of his able address:
The evils caused by intemperance
strike a deadly blow at the temporal
and spiritual welfare of man; where in
temperance reigns society is on the de-
cline. The drunkard makes god of his
passion, and is regardless of the grave
responsibility incumbent upon him as
member of society. He stiles his intel
lectual faculties. Art, science and liter
ature are to him but empty names. His
will-power becomes weak. The brute
knows when he has satisfied nature, the
drunkard often ignores the fact. In
temperance crowds our hospitals, work
houses and asylums. 1t saps the founda-
ton of home, and withers the endearing
lilly of virtue. AS to the souls welfare,
scripture says the drunkard shall not
enter the kingdom of heaven.

progress" the watehword.

If much can be accomplished by fifty
energetic, charitably disposed Catholics,
if fifty such workers as the regular at
ings of the Orphans Fair Association
can so arrange matters that large returns
may be assured, what would result II
there were ten to every one of the fifty,
all bent on one object, all determined to
assist as far as possible the fair and the
orphans who need the aid? There me
ten to every one of this fifty, and not one
of this fifty has more time to devote to
the cause than any of the ten who might
lend what they can. Would it not be a
magnificent thing for city like ours to
have, not an orphan asylum for 80 or
100 boys, but one like Cincinnati where
there are 300 otherwise homeless ones?
There are 300 and more in the state who
need such home, and who are deprived
of all the goods that our 100 little boys
are getting, simply because the home
cannot support any more.
Next Sunday an opportunity will be
given to see the asylum, on Chicago ave-
nue. and Forty-sixth street. Carriages
will meet the cars at the end Of Eighth
and Central line in time to reach the
meeting, which will be held at o'clock.
The meeting of the association last
Sunday at Holy Rosary Church revealed
much progress. One of the important
steps was to select the place of holding
the fair. Harmonic Hall was decided
upon. The admission will " Is cents,
but season tickets good to admit bearer
will be sold for so cents.
The donations are factor to every
fair, but this year expectations and past
records are to be far exceeded. These
donations are coming from all classes
and creeds. At the next meeting the
reports of the committees will be very
interesting, and it is hoped that large
and enthusiastic attendance will be on
hand to assist and encourage those who
are doing the active work, and to show
by their presence an appreciation q. the
services being done.
