THAT Willy HAND,
British Statesmen Favor Rev
olution in All Countries
Save England.

Throughout long series of years Eng
lish journalists. politicians and statesmen
have been the consistent friends of agita-
ton, revolution and disorder in every
country save their own. In the tirst
quarter of the present century this char
acteristic was evidenced by the manner
in which England assisted the revolu-
tionary iuntas of Southern America in
their long conflict with Spain, as we'll as
the Liberals of Spain and Portugal, in
the great civil wars which did so much
10 wreck the prosperity and power OF
countries which had been at one time
her own equal in military and naval
strength, as we'll as in material prosper
ity. Later on, in the case of Hungary,
Italy and Poland, Englishmen were
among the most active and liberal of the
supporters Of the various revolutionary
movements in the countries named. We
are not now discussing the question as to
whether or not these movements had
justification or the reverse. We are SIM
ply stating fact which contrasts some
what curiously with the attitude adopted
by Englishmen whenever, as in the case
of Ireland India, Jamaica, Canada OF
Egypt, they have been called upon to
deal with anything in the nature OF popu'
lar uprising against their own DONNA
ton. The displays of feeling to which
we refer bear out the accuracy of Moore's
statement that "Rebels at home are pa
triots at Medrid. "-[Syracuse Sun.

sized the necessity Of an English educa-
ton and allowed no other language to
be spoken at the morning session of the
school. The plan worked so we'll that he
was asked to form military companies in
parishes all over the city. By combining
different battalions he had regiment of
!, 900 boys, drilled according to improved
army methods. On one occasion Rev.
Father Mahoney was asked to take bat
talon of boys to Wisconsin to compete
with some local companies for tile bene-
fit of an orphan asylum. When the three
companies of Chicago boys arrived they
discovered that their competitors were
three companies of the Wisconsin ma
tional guard; but the boys outdrilled two
of the companies and the third refused to
come on the field.

CELTIC UNION.

Lord Castletown and Count Plunkett
were among the Irishmen who received
honors at the great Welsh festival, and
at the close of meeting at Cardiff Count
Plunkett. who has rendered valuable
service to the Irish literary movement in
returning thanks on behalf of the Irish
delegates, pointed out to the vast audi
ence of Welshmen that the Irish people
were now engaged in the same noble task
in which Wales has been so successful,
namely, in restoring the glorious ideals
and traditions of the Celtic race. The
Irish people are animated by the same
fervor to keep the national ideas alive;
and Count Plunkett pointed out that
though there are divergences of language
between the Celt and the Cymric they
are united at heart. All Irishnien will
be gratifed to learn that this years Els
teddfod has been big success, and that
their own countrymen took very honor
able part therein.

ST. AUGUSTIN'S CHURCH.
Work of Its Pastor For the
CoIored PeopIe-ChurCh
Much Improved.

Last week we published the picture of
Rev. Albert Stroebele and some of his
congregation of St. Augustin, copies of
which can be had of Rogers. We give
the following summary of the labors of
this jealous priest among the colored
people during the short time he has been
in charge of their church in this city:
The present rector of St. Augustin's,
Rev. Albert Stroebele, took charge of the
mission November / 1898. In this short
time numerous improvements have been
made. The interior of the church has
been thoroughly renovated. The walls,
affairs and pews have received new coat
of paint The sanctuary was enlarged so
as to get room for a sanctuary choir OF
twenty boys and young men. A set OF
new stations was created. Congregational
singing has been introduced with great
success, hymn-books being distributed in
all the pews. The interior of the rectory
underwent also thorough renovation
The expense of all this has been covered
mostly by the offerings made by the peo'
pie at the Tuesday services, which are
held in honor of St. Anthony, under
whose special protection the mission wa:
put by the present rector. These Tues
day devotions, after the handsome and
most lifelike statue of the saint, which
decorates one of the side affairs, had beer
erected, became so popular that the
church could not hold the crowds ant
the services had to be duplicated ant
Implicated in order to accommodate all
Until month ago these Tuesday services
were held at s a. IN. and 2:30 p. m. ano
8 p. m. and each time the-church wa
overfilled. The rector found this, how
ever, too much for his strength and sine
July the afternoon services have beef
dropped. The order of divine services OF
Tuesdays is now as follows: At a. M
confessions, $50 a. nj. first mass, to
a. m. confessions, 8 a. m. last mass, fol
lowed by St. Anthony's devotion an'
blessing of the people with the relic o

to this diocese was rector of st. Anthony

the approval of tie Right Rev. w. Wig
ger, Bishop of Newark, and with tn
special blessing of Pope Leo XIII. h
built magnificent granite church, whic
was intended to be memorial church c

CATHEDRAL OUTING.

The outing to given by the Cathedral
congregation next Wednesday at
Osborne's woods bids fair to be grand
success. The grounds are particularly
adapted for such an entertainment
affording delightful shade and yet being
convenient to the street cars. A prize
has been offered for the one who sells
the greatest number of tickets, and there
is much excitement over the contest.
Misses Amelia Donnelly and Edna Cor
man are making an active race, and as
both are popular young ladies their many
friends are working in their cause. A
variety of entertainments has been
arranged for both day and evening in
addition to the orchestra. The illuinina-
ton at night will be unusually bright.
This will be delightful place to spend
an evening away from the heat of the
city where pleasant company, many
diversions and above all a fine meal may
be yours. Come and bring your family

GREY'S PEAK HERMIT.
Cut His Hair After Striking 1t
Rich and Then Went
Back for His Girl.

Mike, the Hermit of Grey's Peak, in
Colorado, has cut his hair at last. More,
he has sold his claim and is on his way
to Ireland to fetch Nellie" for whom
he has been working nineteen hard years.
High up on the trail leading from Sill
yer Plume to the summit of Grey's Peak
there stands little cabin which has been
pointed out to travellers as Mikes cabin"
for nearly twenty years. No one knew
the surname of the owner and not many
knew his history.
Among the first of the men who sought
gold around the timber line of Grey's
Peak came mike" He said he came
from Ireland by way Of Denver. He was
young, active and ambitious, and told all
who took the trouble to ask him that he
was just going to find gold mine, dig
out sack of gold and then go back tc
Ireland for Nellie"
The men who listened laughed at Mike,
and they laughed more when they saw
that he was delving into the most unlikely
spot on the whole mountain. They asked
him why he did not take rest and geI
his hair cut. In a rage Mike said he
would never get his hair cut until he
found gold enough to buy the claims o
the men who laughed, and for nineteer
years he has kept his word.
No one knows just when he found thu
vein of gold which made his fortune, TO
the hut in which he lived masked tn,
entrance to his mine. 1t was only wheI
he astonished the miners by walking int
the barber shop that his find became
known.
The cutting Of Mikes" hair was al
event that drew crowd and grew into
celebration. Now he is on his way 4
Nellie, and no one knows whether Nelli
! is wife, daughter or sweetheart.

self famous at St. Stanislaus, the greatest
Polish Roman Catholic church in Amer

the vices of America and none OF hei
virtues In the streets of Chicago, and the
soldier-priest was called in to save the
situation. He organized great Polish
American cadet corps, uniformed the
boys as zorayes. and introduced Wes

TWO CENTENARIANS.
Irish Pioneers of Wisconsin
Pass Away Peacefully
After Long Lives.

William Lynch, the Oldest resident of
Kenosha county, and probably the Oldest
resident of Southern Wisconsin, has
passed away at his home in Kenosha.
The end was peaceful but unexpected.
A few weeks previous Mr.. Lynch cele-
brated his Tooth birthday and since that
time he had been exceedingly cheerful
and considered himself in excellent
health, but he was taken with spell OF
weakness and soon fell into fit of UNI
consciousness, from which he never re-
gained his senses.
The deceased had been for many years
one of the characters of the county. He
was very prominent in political circles,
and was once leader in the Democratic
party. He was born in the county OF
Longford, Ireland, on June 10, 1893. He
came to America in 1924 and to Kenosha
county in 1887. He was one of the
founders of the little village of Pleasant
Prsirie and held many of the Offices in
the gift of the people. In national poll
tics he always took a great interest, and
he has represented his county in many
State and national conventions of the
Democratic party, where he was con
spicuous figure. He had hosts of friends
and many of them were made by hi:
happy way of telling good stories, fol
which he was known.
Mrs. Mary McGuan, aged l01 years
died at Baraboo, Wis. When George III
sat upon the throne of England and join
Adams occupied the White House al
President of the United States daughte
came to grace the home of Mr.. and Mrs
Neihlan in far away Ireland. Correct,
speaking, that was on February 2, 1898.
This daughter survived all of the mos
exciting experiences of the wonderful
century that is about to close.
Mary Neihlan was born in Raheen
County Clare, ireland. Her father was
husbandman, and in 1921 she married
farmers son, named Patrick McGuan
who lived not far away. In Ireland the,
dwelt until lS49, and passed through tn
widespread famine in that land. 7

The St. Joseph's Orphan Association,
composed of our German Catholics, for
the support of their orphans, will cele-
brate their fiftieth anniversary on the
asylum grounds at Crescent Hill, Tues
day, August 30. They are deserving of
liberal patronage, not only because of
the charitable work and purpose, but be-
cause the association rarely calls on the
general public for aid. They by contri-
buttons among their own people have
built and supported their orphan asylum.
