He Was Not a Turk.

Father William Mcmahon, of Cleve-
land, WI. is travelling in the East, sends
some interesting letters to the Universe.
In his latest letter, from Egypt, he gives
this amusing incident:
Departing from the Citadel, We were
surprised to be saluted by Turkish or
Egyptian official wearing prominent
fez and carrying a sword. We returned
the salute and stopped to speak to him.
He spoke English. The bishop said to
him: You are not Turk Indeed,
am not, God forbid Where do you hail
from?' Well, I've been in Egypt about
II years, but I hail from the County
Down, Ireland asked: From
what part of it?' From Down-Patrick,
where St. Patrick was buried Well,
WE'LL said the bishop; how strange to
meet an Irishman out here looking like
a Turk and wearing fez and dressed in
the Egyptian uniform. Do you know
the Arabic language? I do, your rever-
ence.' Well, don't you think you ought
to go home, on a visit at least?' I am
going back to Ireland in the summer.
I'd like to be there for the 'a8 celebra-
ton Will you return to Egypt In
deed l will not; If stay here much
longer they will make Mahomet out OF
me- With a laugh and shake hands
we parted. said to the Egyptian Off
Ger and Down-Patrick Irishman: Good
by; may meet you next summer in the

Blessing of St. Mary's Hospital.

Tho new st. Marys hospital, of which
the citizens of Duluth and vicinity are
justly proud was solemnly blessed by
Rt. Rev. James McGolrick, bishop Of
Duluth, on Saturday, the 18th.
After the ceremonies, peculiar to the
blessing Of such an institution, the good
bishop spoke very tittngly Of the good
will which every one has towards a hos
pital because it is a public friend. He
said he was much pleased to find that
popular prejudices, some time ago pre-
valent, with regard to hospitals, had ell
tirely disappeared and that people now
gladly submitted to the physicians
orders relative to sending their sick
friends to hospital and are more ana
more convinced that a hospital is the
only place where good results, in sur
sical cases especially, can be confidently
hoped for. The blessing being over Il
banquet, which had been prepared by
the pupils Of the Sacred Heart Institute :
was served by them to large number
of guests. The dining hall and tables
were artistically arranged by the pupils.
After dinner select program was rem
dered.
Among the honored guests were:
Rt. Rev. James McGolrick, Rev. +.
Ferdinand, O. +. NJ, Rev +. J. Mackey,
Rev. p. George, O. S. b.. Rev. l.. Grand
champ, Rev. T.. +. Lawlor, DR.. G..

THEIR FOURTH ANNUAL FAIR

We have been one and all to the Fair,
We know by the weight OF our purse
we were there,
And we had a fine time now let he
who dare,
Saw twas not a success both socially
and financially.
The Fourth Annual Fair given last
Thursday night by the Ladies Aid Soci-
ETY. was a success in evey particular.
The program prepared by Mrs. T. j..
| Yeargin was very choice, containing
most brilliant selections, among them a
recitation by Miss Fannie Pike which
brought down the house; a vocal duet
Leta Years in and Nellie ponelin reflect
ed much credit upon the executors. Miss
Susie Tread way and Misses May Pollock
an4 Jennie Marshall treated the audi
ence to rare instrumental selections, the
formers a solo and the latter a duet. The
little Misses Cook were greeted with APP
plause AS their appearance always is
and they sang in a charming manner.
Fred Geogg, his wooden shoes, and
Katrina gave the audience considerable
amusement. Miss Myrtle York and
Miss Florence Kent's selections were a
treat. Mrs. Paul Laveaga rendered a
a vocal in a pleasing voice and charming
stvle. The last on the progam, a vocal
duet, "My Honolulu Lady by Miss Alice
George as Mr.. Johnsing and Miss Mabel
McComber as Miss Honolulu Lu, was
greeted with ~ronsing applause and we
think its rendition could not be inn
proved. .drs. George deserves much
credit for the training OF the w young
ladies for this number.

And are sorry to say that our reporter

A most dainty creamer and sweet su-
gar bowl.
A gift to the most popular lady was
required,
And after the voting it was declar-
ed,
That the lady who had won was Miss
Lille Dryer.
So she too a box OF lovely stationary
did acquire.
The large doll which was kindly given

DEEP SEA WATER.

At One Thousand FathOms It's Pres
sure Is a Ton to the Square Inch.
When marine life began to command
notice, the question of the depth to
which life could extend divided scien-
tific thought into warning camps. About
1910, it was generally believed that the
bathymetrica limit was about 800 faith
oms, and some strange ideas were cur
rent as to the physical condition of wa
ter when under pressure such as a
depth of two miles would produce. 1t
was thought that skeletons of drowned
men, or even heavy cannon and the
wedges of gold" that popular imagina
ton places in the sea, fioated at certain
levels, beneath which is water SO COM
pressed as to be impenetrable. In fact,
water is almost incompressible, and the
weight of cubic inch of it at the depth
of mile is very little more than at the
surface, but it was assumed that no liv-
ing being could survive pressure
which at 1000 fathoms is about ton
to the square inch
We ourselves live under pressure of
about 10 pounds per inch, and are IN
aware of it. Indeed we sometimes
waken on morning when the barome
ter has risen, say, half an inch during
the night, and consequently find our
selves sustaining an increased pressure
Of several tone not only without suffer
ing, but with a positive feeling of buoy
ancy and good spirits. On the other
hand, If the tremendous pressure under
which we live be relieved as by sur
gical cup" severe injury may follow.
Aeronauts suffer from this cause, and
marine animals dredged from great
depth often reach the surface i'll most
lamentable condition, with eyes protrud-
ing and viscera distended. DIR. @. M.

A CLEVER RUSSIAN.

He Found n Method of Beating Els
Persian Creditor.
III Persia, when creditor fails to get
his money in any other way, he appears
in the debtors house and sits down.
Then he does not move away till the
delinquent pays up. He enters the debt
or's sleeping apartments, if possible, and
has his meals brought in. A few years
ago Persian held an unsatisfied claim
against the British government, and he
presented himself before the British
minister one day and camped out In his
private office. The minister did not see
the joke, and sent for policeman. That
made lot of noise and trouble, and the
Russian representative in Teheran evil
IDENTIFY learned lesson from it, for he
managed case of the same kind much
differently.
The Persian who demanded money
from the Russian Count Kolomeisow)
was holy man, dervish, and when he
sat down in the Russian y ante1oom to
wait till the latter paid his disputed
claim Count Kolomeisow knew that he
could not get rid of him without much
fuss and explanation 1t is against the
laws, or at least the custom, which is
just as firm, to touch a creditor who
takes this means of collecting money,
so the count could not throw him out.
He thought over the matter. and one
morning he sent for lot of &asons.
Then he ordered them to build wall
around the dervish, who was sitting in
the middle of the room The dervish
watched them plaoidly at first, but
when the wall grew and it became APP
parent that it would be completed soon
he jumped over it, ran away and has
not been seen since. They say that the
count is the first man in Teheran who
has beaten creditor of this kind with
out recourse to the police.-New York
