ther COnaty-DissertatiOn of
the Graduates.

The graduation day exercises Of the
Catholic University were held this morn
ing in Mcmahon Hall at Brookland. His
Eminence Cardinal Gibbons conferred the
degrees upon the successful candidates.
The large hall was filled with the relatives
and friends of the young men who gradu-
ated, among them being many prominent
members Of the diplomatic corps The ex-
ercises commenced shortly after 10 o'clock.
and the opening address was delivered by
Right Rev. Mgr. Conaty. the rector Of the
University.
When all the dignitaries were seated
Right Rev. Mgr. Conaty prefaced his ad-
dress with a few remarks. He expressed
the gratitude OF the university to all who
had honored it with their presence at the
closing exercises Of the tenth scholastic
year. He was happy to congratulate the
university on the completion Of its fist
decade. and referred to the evidences of
its success as manifested not only in the
wealth of buildings which it possessed, but
more especially in the ability OF the men
who had been charged with instruction.
and the pupils who, having received it
from their hands. were now giving faith
full service to church and state.
He characterized the present scholastic
year as being one Of great fruitfulness.
both in the gifts which had been bestow
ed or promised and also in the character
OF the work which had been done. The
visit OF the foundress Of the university,
the marQuise de Merinville. at the open
ing of the year seemed to bring with it
promise OF successful cooperation, which
has been more than fully realized. The
popular demonstrations of interest in the
university on the part of the Knights OF
Columbus and the Catholic Knights of
America in the founding of the chairs of
history by the one and of English litera-
ture by the other was a manifestation OF
the deep interest which the people feel in
the university. A source of great encour-
agement was also found in the tribute paid
to the memory Of a devoted priest on the
part of the Catholics Of Brooklyn in the
establishment Of a scholarship to the Rev.
James H. Mitchell, LII. d. Reference was
made to the deaths last year Of Mr.. Joseph
Banigan. of Providence. R. l., and Mrs.
Eugene Kelly. Of New York, both devoted
benefactors Of the university.
Expression was given to the desire which
was felt or the part OF the rector and the
trustees for the complete endowment of
the university with the beginning of the
new century, and allusion was made to
the leave OF absence which Archbishop
Keane had received, for the purpose Of CO.
operating with the rector in the obtaining
Of the necessary funds for the full endow-

him. Finally he managed to board a
car on another road. Members of the
crowd followed him and gave him a few
blows more. When he was attacked Mr.
Cheatham told the mob that he was not
