Asa musical event, OF notable merit and
satisfactory TO the hundreds who partici
psted or patronized II, the fourth annual
festival OF the Randolph Musical associa-
ton will go on record in local history.
Unfortunately, because OF increased ex-
penses, occasioned principally by the aug

a somew hat disappointing attendance on
oratoriu mig bit, the receipts fell short OF
the outlay in the neighoorhood OF slOO.
The association had a surplus, the pronts
Of prior conventions, to draw on, but in
view OF the immense labor OF planning
and carving out such an event success
fully, devolving on the committee, II Is
unfortunate and somewhat discouraging
that this years account failed to balance.

and another year will doubtless see bet

eminent in the Catholic hierarchy for his

was 10 him as his mother tongue He was
also familiar with the ancient Celtic or
Irish language and favored its teaching
as part of the curriculum of the Catholic
University. He was for number of years
a frequent contributor TO the American
Quarterly Review, leading Catholic pub
seldom appeared in print on .au-
count of the labors devolving
upon him in the diocese and his failing
health. His articles in the Catholic Review
were largely instrumental i'm the eStab-
lishment of the Catholic University at
Washington and it was thought by many
that his distinguished literary attaiuments
merited his selection as the head of the
university. His name was mentioned in
this connection upon the retirement or
Archbishop Keane several years since.
one who knew Bishop Becker Well said
in speaking of him: He was a man who
hit straight form the shoulder He always
said what he thought, and said it plainly
but he was one who spoke al you and not
about you. He criticised no man unfavor-
ably in his absence, nor would he permit
any one else to do so within his presence
He was a rare character, and one who
will be greatly missed He made il a rule
ii limit his sermons to twenty minutes
He had a decided objection to long SER
mons, and frequently declared that every
thing that was worth saying on any sub
ject could be said in twenty minutes"
1t is undoubtedly true that had it not
been for Bishop Becker's decided objection
to notoriety, or publicity of any kind
which amounted almost to a mania with
him, that his high literary attainments
and distinguished ability would have made
him much better known 10 the genral
public.
