MIDNIGHT MASS.
Preparation Which the Catholic
Church Is Making to Usher In
the Twentieth Century.

Washington, Dec. 17.-It is learned
at the papal legation that coincident
with the close of the nineteenth cen
fury, every archbishop and bishop in
the United States, as well as else
where, is expected by Pope Leo to
pontificate publicly at a midnight
service in his cathedral, provided
there are no impediments to inter-
fere with the programme. AS some
lates laboring in conjunction, it is ex-
pected that while the archbishop of
the diocese officiates at his cathedral
in person on this solemn occasion, the
c%oadiutor prelate or assistant will
conduct a similar service at the
church which he governs as pastor.
There are Il number of these, located
at Baltimore. New York, Philadelphia,
Boston, New Orleans, Chicago, Indian
apolis and other places where the
spectacle of two bishops officiating
concurrently at midnight mass" will
thus be witnessed.
"It is understood that the c%entury's
close will remarked by extreme acts
of devotion on the part of Catholic
clergy everywhere, by reason of the
pope's desire that they specially sig
nalize the event. At Baltimore Car
dinal Gibbons will conduct the COM
memorative rites, while his coadiutor,
Bishop Alfred Curtis. prcsides at one of
the other city churches. In Washing
ton, Archbishop Martinelli, the papal
delegate, has promised to officiate as
celebrant of midnight mass at ST.
Patrick's church.
Washington. Dec. 17.-Before leav-
ing for his home in Minnesota, Arch
bishop Ireland stated that no celebra-
ton of a coadiutor as assistant bishop
for the archdiocese of st. Paul has yet
been made. During his recent visit
to Rome, the archbishop suggested
to the holy see the need of appointing
an assistant prelate for that iurisdic-
ton on account of its RAPID develop
ment, but regarding the choice of an
auxiliary nothing is definitely known.
1t is yet a matter of conjecture wheth-
er Bishop o'Gorman, of South Dakota,
or IL of the secular clergy of ST.
Paul, will be promoted to the office.

HARR1soN's VIEW.
Ex-President Declares That the Con.
stttution Applies to the Phil
pines and Porto Rico.

Ann Arbor, Mich. Dec. FIX
President benjamin Harrison Friday
night attacked the administration for
taking the position that the constitu-
ton applies to the United States, ex-
elusive of Porto Rico and the Philip
pine islands. He declared that these
islands are Il part of the United States
and that the constitution extended to
them in spite of any treaties or con-
~gressional Legislation. To levy taxes
in Porto Rico hat are not uniform
with taxes in other parts of the Unit
ed States, according to the former
president, is to deny that Porto Rico
is a part of the United States. He
said that while some people declare
that the sound of Dewey's guns in
Manila bay heralded a new mission
for this country, to him it seemed bet
ter to let it herald the same old mis-
sion sounded by the guns of Washing
ton. Mr.. Harrison spoke under the
auspices of the Lecture association of
the University of Michigan. and 5000
people heard and applaudcd.
