CHARGES OF MACRUM.
The EX-ConsuI to Pretoria Tells the
House Committee of His Com
plant Against England.

Washington, March 29.-Charles E.
Macrum, of East Liverpool, o., the
American consul at Pretoria, APP
peared before the house foreign af-
fairs committee yesterday and told
of the alleged indignities he suffered
at the hands of the British during
his incumbency. His testimony was
decided disappointment. There is
no question that the British censor at
Durham did open two letters of the
former consul. and it was clearly es-
tablished that Macrum did not report
this fact to the department. When
asked why he had not made a report
of the incident the late consular Off
Ger declined to make an explanation.
After hearing the testimony the
committee decided to drop the mat
ter, and, inasmuch as the British gov
eminent has expressed its regret at
the occurrence, the matter is now
closed incident

A County Line Fight.

County Auditor Minor, of Hennepin
county, has decided to include six Sec
tions of Ramsey county on the tax
rolls of Hennepin county, and if he
carries out his intentions, there will
be trouble for the people living in the
strip included in the three westerly
sections of the town of Rose and the
city of ST. Paul.
The trouble over the strip is due to
an error in fixing the boundaries be-
tween Hennepin and Ramsey counties.
The legislature tried to correct the
error, which was simply clerical one,
but inadvertently moved the line one
mile farther west than was originally
intended. 1t is claimed that the latter
act is illegal, because it was done by
resolution, when it should have been
done by law. Thus the original act
stands with an error of course, but it
is claimed that the mistake is clearly
a clerical one and does not affect title
to the land.

Chicago. In 1871 Mr.. Sawyer was mar
ried TO Melvina NJ. Hadley, of Vermont,
who all through his remarkable career
was true helpmate to him. She died
il 1883.
Ex-senator Sawyer was born in Rutland
county, VT, September %. 1916. When
about year old he moved with his par
ents to Essex county, n. Y, and in 1S47
he settled in the section where he has
lived ever since. In 1853 he embarked in
the lumber business, through which he
amassed a fortune estimated from 81 900, 900
to $1,000, 900. His first political honor was
his election as an alderman to the city
council and afterwards he was chosen
mayor. In 1864 he was elected to congress,
where he remained for ten years, and in
1881 he was elected to the United States
senate, which position he held for two
terms. He was always a stalwart repub-
ican and his counsel was eagerly sought
both in state and national politics. His
public requests were numerous and gen.
erous, amounting annually to thousands
of dollars. There was scarcely a public
or charitable movement in which he did
not head the list of donors. 1t is believed
large requests will be provided by his VIII

school at Ypsilanti, and subsequently,
became a student at She University of
Michigan. Later he attended the Uni
versity of Notre Dame. The story of
his life after reaching mans estate is
one of versatility. He first became a
school teacher. then a soldier, author,
legislator, lawyer and jurist. In all
he was success.
He went from the schoolhouse to the
battlefeld-from books to bullets and
bayonets. In the Twelfth Michigan in
fantry he was in the van at the battle
of Pittsburgh Landing. Under the
deadly fire of confederate guns he
proved his heroism and devotion to the
star spangled standard of liberty. At
Shiloh he was severely wounded. Re-
| ceiving an honorable discharge later,
| hereturned to Notre Dame and married
Miss Julia A. Redmond, of Detroit.
Subsequently he became professor at
| the University of Notre Dame. He
taught with exceptional facility classes
in history, mathematics and astron-
omy. He wrote "a Grammar of the
English Language" and two works of
| an educational character entitled Eek
celsior" and "Uncle Edwards Stories"
| His poems were of exceptional merit,
| especially 1.-THE Bells Of Notre Dame"
In 1878 Prot Howard became Alder
man Howard. In 1886 it was State SEN
| ator Howard. In the legislative halls
he achieved glory as the author of the
Momence drainage bill, the revenue law
and other important measures. In 1892
he was nominated and elected Judge of
the supreme court. 1t is said of him
that he never disappointed public ex-
pectation in any station to which he
has been called. AS Christian he has
always been unwavering in fidelity to
truth and the doctrines of the Catholic
church. In 1898 he was given the
Laetare medal by the University of
Notre Dame.

THE LAETARE MEDAL
To Be Conferred on John A. Creigh-
ton, of Omaha.
Great Mark of Recognition Designed
by NOtre Dame University for
Catholic Laymen Who Perform
Distinguished Services.

John A. Creighton, of Omaha, Neb.,
University of Notre Dame this year.
This medal is presented on Laetare
Sunday-mid-Sunday of Lent-whence
the medal takes it's name. 1t is a
mark of recognition for Catholic lay
men not unlike the golden rose pre-
sented by the pope to distinguish
Catholic sovereigns. This medal is in
tended as recognition of services rem
dered by the laity in behalf of religion,
education and morality. Men and
women have received it because of
their notable services to religion in
different lines of public duty. His
torians, journalists, jurists, engineers,
artists, writer's and physicians have
been recognized by this distinction.
In this instance the University of
Notre Dame has selected as the re-
cipient a Lenefactor of charity and
Catholic education.
John A. Creighton is one of the
pioneers of Omaha. He has been iden-
titled with the business interests of
that city from it's foundation, and is
one of it's most honored and respected
citizens.
Creighton university, the first en-
dowed Catholic university in the Unit
ed States, was founded by the late Ed
ward Creighton. 1t has been enlarged
and developed by the gifts of John A.
Creighton. ST. Joseph's hospital was
founded by the wife of John A.
Creighton, snd her bequest was in
creased fourfold by her husband to
make the hospital fitting monument
to his deceased wife. The medical col
lege that bears his name was estab-
ished by his gifts and made part of
Creighton university, and numerous
charities in the city of Omaha attest
the iberality and benevolence of the
man that Notre Dame honors with
this medal, it's highest mark of appre-
citation.

line of telegraph that reached the Pa
cific coast before the construction OF

announces the fact that Capt. a. w.
Bjornstad, formerly of the 18th Min
nesota, has become a member of the
42nd infantry in Luzon. Capt. Born
stad is acting ma or in place of Maj.

George Brown, a carpenter, fell for
ty feet from the top of the new ore
dock, which is being built for the Mis-
sabe road, at Duluth, striking on a
big spike which protruded from a
timber and was killed.
Henry Baldwin, one of the pioneers
died after a short illness, at Morris.
He carried the mail from ST. Paul TO
the forts in the Dakotas by dog sleds
in the fifties, and was a friend of sew
eral noted Indian chiefs.
The ST. Paul Democrats nominated
two candidates for mayor, Judge Will
lis and Robt. Smith.
Twice as many emigrants passed
through ST. Paul last February as
during the corresponding month for
the last three or four years. The large
part were Scandinavians, though
there were quite number of Finland
ers and Polanders, the former seeking
the country and the latter remaining
in the city.
During the year 1899 there was a
total of 57,024,069 cigars made in Min
nesota.

any railroad. The Creighton brothers
were employed in the construction of
the Union Pacific railroad and other
large enterprises.
Edward Creighton had one ideal in
life and that was to found free insti-
tuition of learning to be conducted I'M
der Catholic auspices, but he died in
tcstate, and the plans he had outlined
were left unprovided for. His wife,
Mrs. Mary Lucretia Creighton, inner
tied his entire fortune. She knew of
her husbands plans, and determined
to put them into execution. In her
will she bequeathed $150,OO0 to the
founding of college that should bear
her husbands name, and Creighton
college was erected in the city of
Omaha and given over to the Jesuit
order. To this endowment fund John
A. Creighton has added liberal dona-
tions to aid in the extension and
equipment of the college.
The next object of Mr.. Creighton's
bounty was ST. Joseph's hospital,
which was built by him at cost of
$25O,o0O. When it was completed he
again directed his attention to edu-
cation, and founded the John A..
Creighton medical college, in connec-
ton with the hospital. This medical
college became part of the Creigh-
ton university. He gave largely to the
building of ST. Johns church. nearby
the college, one of the handsomest
churches in the city. The convent of
the Poor Clares was built by him upon
land that he donated and a fund was
set aside for the maintenance of the
convent.
His iberality toward charity and
education received recognition some
years ago by his appointment to the
title and distinction of Roman count
by Pope Leo XIII.
The recipient of the Laetare medal
is selected by the president and fac
ulty of the University of Notre Dame
The presentation, together with an IL
Illuminated address, is made on Laetare
Sunday. The custom of giving this
medal was established in 1888 for the
purpose of encouraging more active
interests in religious and educational
matters by the laity.

Gwendolen Caldwell. the founder of the
Catholic university.
