the badly instructed or those who have
had no instruction-for infidels and
for these who adore strange gods, for
lndulgtng in the meaningless habit of
I cursing and swearing, but for Catholics
it is both unreasonable and disgraceful
To believe in God and employ His name
IN imprecation, to look to Him for
mercy and ask malediction upon others
is one of the incongruities of Catholic
life that finds no explanation in reason
or faith.

About 500 persons met last Tuesday
night in BrickIayers' Hall in East
IWenty-fourth street, New York, and
formed the DR.. McGlynn Memorial as
ISOLATION, the avowed purpose of which
IS first to raise money to pay the late
Rather McGlynn's debts and afterwards
TO erect monument to his memory.
The meeting was presided over by Syl-
vester L. Malone, and about half the
persons present were women. Mr.. Ma
lone said that Dr. McGlynn had left
many debts which must be paid. He
did not tell the amount of the debts,
but it is said by some persons who were
at the meeting that they amount to be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 and consist OF
obligations for money borrowed and
used to aid those who were in need.
John j. Bealin also spoke. The associa-
ton elected Mr.. Malone president the
Rev b. L. Burtsell treasurer, and
Thomas J. Mcmahon, secretary. and be-
gan its work by taking up a collection
which amounted to about $3.50. 1t was
agreed to hold a big public meeting to
further the purposes of the association
on Sunday after next.

Hoffmans Catholic Directory for 1900
will be complete in a few days. 1t will
SHOW the Catholic population of the
country to be over 1O,OOO'OO0. An effort
was made this year to obtain statistics
regarding the Church in our new pos
sessions, the Philippines, Cuba and
Puerto Rico, but Archbishop Chapelle
and Bishop Bienk advised against it,
as it was impossible to obtain accurate
statistics. Each year on the issuance of
the Catholic Directory dispute breaks
out aa to the accuracy of the statistics
of the Catholic population. 1nasmuch as
these figures are all obtained from the
Bishops of the diocese, the blame for
errors must lie on them. The greatest
pains are taken to secure accuracy.

Judge Nicho1son's Reasons for Sup
porting Mckinley.

Judge NJ. B. Nicholson of Council
Grove is one of the ablest and best
known lawyers in Kansas. He has
been life long Democrat and was
elected judge of his judicial district
for two terms by the fusionists. He
gives the following forcible reasons
Tor Supporting Mckinley and the Re
publican party this year:
II never voted the Republican
ticket, but | will support President
Mckinley this fall. Old issue have
been relegated to the rear, and new
duties and higher SponSibiliules are
upon US. The present attitude of the
Democratic party is not patriotic. 1
propose to vote for Mckinley this
fall. if l live as long as that.
Il have grown weary of the course
that is being pursued by the oppo-
nents of Mckinley. in fact. 1 have
been getting more and more weary
evaE since the Spanish-American war
broke out. l wasn't much in favor of
getting into that war. l thought it
might have been avoided, but we got
iuto it and from that time there was
no course for loyal man to pursue
except to sustain his country. MY
boy enlisted and while l hated to see
him go, l did not try to dissuade him.
Before the war commenced, the oppo-
sition, that is our party. were doing
their best to drive Mckinley into it
ready or not ready. Mckinley was
doing his best to prevent a war, ana L
honor him for it. 1t was the right
thing, the patriotic. the humane, the
statesmanlike course to take As
soon as war was declared the very
