A GRAND FUNERAL SERMON.
Delivered at st. Vinccnt's Church, u.
Rev. Er, NichuSlA

Delivered at st. vinccnrs Church by
Rev. Fr. Michnels.
Very touching and impressive were
the services held at ST. Vincents church,
st. Paul, last Sunday afternoon, over the
remains of the late William Cunning
ham, the well known live stock dealer
The hour set for the funeral was 8
O'Clock, but long before the arrival of
the solemn cortege the sacred edifice was
filled with sorrowing friends, who had
assembled to pay final tribute of re-
spect to the deceased, the attendance be-
ing the largest seen in st. Paul for many
day.
The Catholic ritual for the dead was
read. the Rev. Father Cosgrove, pastor
of the church, officiating, and an elo-
quent eulogy was pronounced by Rev.
Father Michaels, the learned Passionist
missionary of st. louis, who has been
holding a mission in st. Vincent's dur
ing the week.
Directly in front of the altar on which
were placed a magnificent floral cross
and horseshoe of roses and immortelles,
was placed the snmptuous casket of
deepest black, the 'moltrnful appearance
being relieved by the folds of the Ameri-
can flag by which it was partially tlraped.
while on the lid rested lovely floral Offer
ings, among them being cross, ain an
Choir and crown. The casket was dec
GRATED by Acker post. G. A. r., of which
he was member. and the comrades Of
which, together with the bearers,
occupied front seats.
The delegation from Acker post was In
charge of w. S. Abraham.
In his appropriate Grafton over the
dead, for such 1t was, Rev. Father Mich
aels dwelt upon the character of the de-
ceased as Christian, father and a
patriot. In the presence Of the silent
tongue and the still pulse, he said, the
most eloquent tribute is silence, as mere
words are nothing.
1.-THE eulogies of man in the great and
solemn majesty of death, when we come
to stand before the coffin, availeth the
poor corpse naught, and therefore man
Should bestow his praises upon the liv-
ing. Out from the silent lips he still
spoke eloquently of the virtues he exem-
plified in life the love of home, the love
of country and the love of God. The
home should be heaven in miniature.
or it is either the nursery of heaven
above or the hell beneath, and while the
mother is the heart Of the home, so the
father is the inspiration and the head,
and as he causes his children to look up
to him. he makes paradise or place
OF gloom and darkness Next to the
sanctuary, the crown of fatherhood is
most sacred, and the good man should
stand like q god before his sons and
daughters. AS the homes are. so is the
nation, and as the father u.s. his sons shall
be likewise"
The eulogy sparkled with noble scnti-
ment on the duty of man and the love OF
home. country and religion, and 1t was
filled with many gems of thought.

as to which is the most popular most
energetic and most magnetic trade center

Last week we visited the Big Store

It was a regular stampede so much so

Hon. Thomas L. Cleary.

The Milwaukee journal gives the fol-
lowing sketch of Il. il. Clcary, brother OF
Rev. ]. NJ. Clcary, of this city:
Thomas l.. Clcary. of plattcville, the
Democratic candidate for congress in tho
Third district, is one of tho most popu-
lar men in his district. He was born on
Walworth county farm i'll 1861, and is
one OF six brothers who have all gone
into the learned professions, and who are
all more or less known in Wisconsin.
One Of them. Dr. j. j.. Cicary, OF Kc-
nosha, served several years on the state
board of control Another is the Rev.

Thomas l.. Cleary. like his brothers,
worked on the farm and attended tho
common district school until he had ex-
haustcd It's capacity for education. Then
he taught in the country schools to OBJ
tain means for better schooling, and
graduated at the Whitewater normal
school. After some years Of successful
teaching he was admitted to the bar in
1878, and settled mt Plattevillc for prac-
tice. In 1890 he was elected district at
torney Of Grant county by $50 majority.
the only Democrat who ever held the Of
flee. He was appointed assistant United
States district attorney in 1894, and held
the position four years. Mr.. Cleary is a
man Of attractive personality, and is a
fluent speaker besides being a citizen OF
the highest standing in tho locality
where he has lived for the past 20 years.
Another paper speaks Of MIR. Clcary
thus:
The Democrats of tho Third congress

mated Thomas l.. Cleary, of Platteville, as
their choice for representative. Mr..

Offices in the Globe building. Mr.. Prem
dergast is not a candidate for any posi-
tion at the hands of his fellow citizens,
and it is merely as matter of courtesy
and compliment to him that we introduce
him to the public ON this occasion.
Edmund Prendergast is just beginning
his career as an attorney, anG the Irish
Standard desires to tell it's readers who
he u.s. and what his qualifications are for
the profession he has chosen. He is the
son OF Mr.. p. H. Prendergast, of this
city, and a brother of Rev. ]. H. Prender-
CAST, assistant pastor at the Church of
st. Anthony of Padua. After taking his
classical course in Minnesota, Mr.. Pren-
dergast took a post graduate course in
the Grand Academy of Philosophy at
Montreal. Returning from that scholas-
tic institution with literary honors, Mr..
Prendergast entered the University Of
Minnesota and took a thorough law
course, graduating at the head of his
class and obtaining the encOmiumS of
Dean Pattee, who entertains the highest
opinion of his intellectual faculties and
anticipates grand future for him at the
bar. Mr.. Prendergast prudently asso-
ciated himself with Mr.. Arthur H. Noyes,
former partner of Judge Harrison, of the
district bench, and undoubtedly he will
derive much benefit in legal way from
being associated with lawyer of large
experience and high standing at the Min
nesota bar. 1t is unnecessary to write
further of Edmund A. Prendergast. All
who know him admire him for his ster-
ling qualities, and it is safe to predict
that in the near future because of his
superior attainments and training in his
profession, he will attain emlnence in
the courts of law and become popular
attorney with lucrative practice.
