The matter of funds for literature
being suggested a collection was taken
and over $500 raised IN as many
minutes.
Several addresses were made and
true American spirit manifested
that every man, women and child in
the town be allowed to worship God
according to the dictates of his or
her conscience and pledgiug support
to the undertaking which if managed
intelligentIy will we are sure be pro-
ductive of much good to the com
munity.
The fact that so per cent. of the
population were present at the two
Sunday schools is gratifying in the
extreme.

Dodge City Globe.Republican;

Dodge City Globe Republican;
Rev. J. Bonohue, pastor of the
Catholic church, has beer assigned
to the pastorate at lola, Kansas, and
will remove there. Father Donohhe
has been in Dodge City for two
years past, and he is well liked by
the members of his church, the city
clergy and citizens generally, who
sincerely regret his leaving. During
his charge here the church has been
built up, many members being add
ed to the congregation. In fact the
church was in poor condition before
Father Donohue took charge of it.
His income during two years was
increased from SI5o to $3.50 year.
The members of the church last
week presented Father Donohue
with purse of over $40, as slight
token of their estimation of his abil-
ity and their esteem for him. Faith
er Donohue desires us to express his
thanks to the people of Dodge City
for their cordiality and courteous
treatment. He found the people
genial and pleasant and he expressed
a wish that his successor may receive
the same kindness. Mrs. J. Heinze,
aunt of Father Donohue, who re-
sides with him, shares in this ex-
preston OF gratitude to the citizens
of Dodge City for their kind treat
ment to pastor and family. The
ladies of the Altar Society present
ed Mrs. Heinze with a fine silver
set, as mark of their love and es-
TEEN. Mrs. Heinze accompanies
Father Donohue on his departure.
