MILWAUKEE, a Sept. S.-(Special)-
The coming conference of the National
Municipal league to be held at Milwau-
kee' Sept IS, 20 and q. is already attract
ing the attention of students Of munici-
pal questions in all parts of the country
Inc meeting promises to be of excep-
honal interest because of the wide IL
versity of subjects that will be treated,
and the personnel of the men who will
attend.
The league has established for itself
a place in the public mind. and it's eff
forts have borne abundant fruit; though
not always to the degree desired by
those most actively identified with its
work. In its membership are included
many men not only of prominence in
their respective communities but of
national reputation for their research
into and writings on the municipal prob
lem.
The National Municipal league has now
been in existence six years. 1t was the
outcome of the national conference for
good city government, held in Philadel-
phia, in January, 1894, which brought to-
gether from all parts of the country men
and women who had long given special
thought to the municipal problem Its
discussions showed clearly that the many

who enters the order shall wear habitu-
ally a dark-colored scapular, and about
the body small cord, reminding Of
the tn shield and sword with which to fight
the world and the powers Of darkness.
Whenever 1t is convenient every member
should assist, If possible, every day at

1t is interesting to know that one Of

The dedication of the chapel and mon
astery took place on the 18th of last
September. The solemn service COM
menced at 10 o'clock in the morning and
lasted until late in the afternoon. Thou
sands of people came out from Washing
ton and from cities all over the country
to be present. Among those present
were Cardinal Gibbons, Bishop Blenk, OF
Porto Rico; Mgr. Stephan, and hundreds
Of priests and brothers. Mgr. Martinelli,
who acted as celebrant, sat upon a white
and yellow throne, and Cardinal Glib
bons sat opposite him on throne of
scarlet After the service was over the

morning the rosy twilight that comes
just before the dawn found them still

the habit and entered the college as
postulates. In time they will be
SENT OUT TO PALESTINE.
The course Of study is as follows: Five
able to enter the novitiate. The novitiate
lasts one year: then comes two years
study of philosophy, which is followed
by four years of theology. Oriental lam
guages, Holy Scripture and biblical
archaeology are also studied.
The things that you see in this great
yellow building, surrounded by the beau
ttful green hills of Maryland, are those
for which men have shed their blood,
life have been staked. Many knight of
st. John has died for them, and the des-
erts We're often white with the bones of
aristocratic soldiers who were warriors
in the holy cause. Inside under the al
tars are many relics, but the deserts of
the far East hold many more, and the
story that you are told by the relics in
these damp underground passages has
been carried around the world.

FOOT WAS CREMATED
And That's why Cramps In Absent
Member Can't Be Relieved.

Member Can't Be Relieved.
Baltimore Sun.
The cure for cramps in an amputated
foot, as suggested by an Ohio correspond
ent of the Sun, would not seem to be ap-
plicable in the Baltimore case for which
he offers the suggestion.
A Baltimorean who lose his foot by hav-
ing it mashed by a haWser twisting
around it while he was on boat COM
planned that he had cramps in the foot
as if that member was still on the end
of his leg. The Ohio man suggested as
a cure that the foot be dug up, the toes
Strengthened out and strapped to a small
board so they cannot draw up again This
plan was followed, 1T is stated, in the case
of man in East Liverpool O., who had
his arm amputated above the elbow.
AS matter of fact, the amputated foot
of the Baltimorean was crematedy $50 that
he will be unable to try the suggested
remedy for cramps. Physicians say that
the apparent cramps and pains in an am
putated member are due to irritati ton of
the nerve stumps as the act of healing
proceeds. The nerve fbers which ran
from the xtremities are still intact in
the bundles making up the nerve which
conducts sensations. through the spinal
bend that when one of these f1bers Is r.
ritated in any part of its length the sem
satton recorded in the brain will be re-
ferred to the part from which the fiber
originally conducted sensations So far
as goes the actual Strengthening out of the
foot, toes or fingers when they are sep
arated from the body, the resulting relief
is entirely matter of faith Or mind cure.
In the course of time the nerve stumps
will become covered SO that the irrita-
tlon VIII stop and with it the sensation
in absent members.

VISITORS UNwELCoME.

I
VISITORS UNWELCOME.
The first time 1 visited Mount st.
Sepuloher I was refused admittance to
the college and clQister. My guide In.
formed mafftta tpat f0FpeFEEy Visitors had
cloister, but that 1t had been the means
of disturbing the holy peace. In fact, he
said that even the windows opening upon
the long corridor that separates the chap
ell from the monastery, and which had
formerly been left open, were now kept
closed because women had looked through
them and 'giggled' and so disturbed the
quiet that is demanded. I pointed out to
him that there were no women then
present and that l promised not to
g1ggle" or in any way disturb the holy
quiet. But he backed away and bowed
politely, and the door OF the clo:ster closed
in my face. l went out into the work
room through which 1 had entered and
told my story to the old monk in the
FADED habit, and who was at work on
some wood carving. But he told me that
the orders could not be disobeyed. He
added, however, that the father In charge
was then away in New York, but that
when he returned he would, no doubt, be
glad to show me through, SO 1 went re-
luctantly away.
Ten days later again visited Mount
st. Sepulcher, and found the father in
charge to be very delightful person
missariat and the college and the clois-
tiers, and was told something Of the
HISTORY OF THE ORDER.
The college is built on the real old
monastic plan: That is to say, 1t is
square and opens upon a courtyard, just
as do the monasteries in California or
Mexico. There are several workshops
carpenter shop, paint shop and shoe
maker shop-where the lay brothers work
at their trades. There is also very fine
garden, where all kinds of produce are
raised. On the north are the dormitories
and study halls, and on the east are the
refectory and the recreation and chapter
room. Up stairs is the fine library, and
the entire second floor is taken up by
the cells Of the frfars. Those cells are
In reality very comfortable little rooms
with an iron bed in corner and holy
pictures on the walls. On rainy days, and
there are great many rainy days here,

by the league is the ''municipal pro-
gramme, adopted by a unanimous vote
at the Columbus conference in 1899. Each
annual conference of the league has
been characterized by its distinctive fea-
lures, and the municipal programme, or
model charter, as it has been desig-
mated, is the logical outcome of the pre-
ceding six years of effort.
FOR MUNICIPAL CAMPAIGNS.
1t was not until the Louisville confer
ence, in 1897, that the preliminary steps
were taken to formulate programme for
adoption and to construct a platform
upon which municipal campaigns should
be waged. The earlier conferences were
devoted to consideration of actual mu-
nicipal conditions, and the papers read at
these meetings dealt largely with the
evils and defects of existing forms of mu-
nicipal government At the meeting in
Louisville a resolution was adopted pro-
Viding for the appointment of a commit
tee to report ION the feasibility of a mu-
nicipal programme which will enlbody
the essential principles which must under
lie successful municipal government, and
which shall also set forth a working plan
or system consistent with American in
dustrial and political conditions for put
ting such principles into practical opera
ton
This work involved a task for which
few, IL any, presidents existed. The com
mittee was working to crystalline the re-
suit of the experiences of European and
American cities, and at the same time
to make the results of it's labors practical
ly applicable to cur present conditions.
The final report of the committee, I'M
der the title Municipal Programme, rep
resented the results of two years of I'M
renting and painstaking endeavor on
the part of the committee which compris-
ed such eminent men as Horace E. Dem
ing, New York, chairman; George w
Guthrie, Pittsburg; Charles Richardson
Philadelphia; Dr. Frank ]. Goodnow, New
York; Dr. Leo s.. Rowe, Philadelphia

and beautiful windows. The great vaulted

selves in a bare room all of white mar
bic. The light of the candle hickers on
the serene surface Of the marble, and
BILE at the far end. This opening is even
lower than the other and had to stoop
nearly double in getting through. The
guide raised his candle and threw the
light upon a bas-relief Of
THE RESURRECTION,
showing the Savior rising triumphantly
from the open tomb, while the Roman
guards fall back in establishment and
sudden fear. Moving over under the beau
tiful memorial lamps that, are hanging
here, our guide showed us the resting
place of the dead Christ. Upon low
shelf sheltered by most beautiful mar
bic slab lay a life size statue of the dead
Christ. with the blood and open wounds
looking SO real that we stepped back in
awe. AS our guide stood by the side Of
the statue it would have been 1mpos-
sible to have said which was the real
man and which the statue. unless we
knew beforehand. In the feeble light
of the candle we suddenly found our
selves face to face with the greatest
truth, or untruth, that has troubled the
world for nineteen hundred years. We
turned and went silently away and out
into the bright sunlight. and there were
the green hills of Maryland stretching
away into the blue distance, and the
big American flag sweeping from the tall
white flag staff of a tall red building
and the same white farm houses on the
green hillside that I had noticed before
going in. We had suddenly come back
from the Holy Land OF two thousand
years ago to our own modern world of to-
day. But again see the Holy City

absorbs all the holdings of ]. c. Bright
of Pottsville. who, under the name of
the Mineral Oil Company, has plants in
this city, Scranton, POttsville, Reading
