Battle of Dundee.

Minneapolis Times.
An esteemed correspondent at
st. Louis has sent to the Chicago
Evening Post the clever verses ap-
pended. He does not give the
name Of the author, nor does he
state whether or not the poem has
appeared in the public prints, A
predatory note addressed ito the
editor is as follows:
II have been reading much
about the war between the Eng
lish and the Dutch in South Al
RIGA, but lately I have come across
a new phase of the conflict. 1 see
by late reports in the daily papers
that the Irish Transvaal brigade in
the first engagement at Dundee
captured-or 'bagged,' to use their
own words-several hundred of the
Royal Irish Fusileers. Now, sir,
the last event has interested me SO
that I have written a poem on the
subject, "a poor thing, It's true, but

Some Predictions.

Peter Smith "the wise man Of
Wyoming" who claims that fol-
twenty years his prophecies have
been fulfilled, and who it will be
remembered, did predict some
startling events of the last year,
makes forecast for 1900 which in
cfudes a European war with France
and England involved with Russia;
the annexation of Cuba to the
United States by a vote of the
people of Cuba; the death of Queen
Victoria and the browning of the
Prince of Wales; a great deal Of
rain will fall over the United
States; a wave of prosperity; horse.
less carriages will be the fad in all
the large cities: a new political
party will be founded; dry goods
will be cheaper and food will be
dearer,

Stockholders Association.

The Northwestern Stock Breed
ers' association has been formed,
having for its purpose to more
closely unite the home breeders
and buyers of good stock, to adj
vance all stock interests, and the
growing of better stock. The
association expects to hold a stock
show and sale at Fargo next sum-
mer, from June 18th to 28th. This
will give an opportunity to breed
ers Of good stock to compare the
merits of their own herd with
others in attendance, and in this
way learn much that will be of
value to them. At this show cattle
of all breeds, good horses that are
bred here, pure-bred stations,
swine and sheep, will be shown,
and all dfaathese will be in demand.

Turn Them Down.

Cando Herald:
There has been in this vicinity for
the last week or two, q tanning mill
peddler, who leaves no money in the
country and is of no. benefit to the
community whatever, whose stock in
trade consists of pair of bronchos and
a sample tanning mill, who pays no
license or taxes. This individual, so
we are told by M to whom he tried to
sell n of his mills, is working a
scheme much like that philanthropic,
great hearted public benefactor, the
money loaner of ten to fifteen years
age, who used to lend a man $500 at
7 per cent. per annum for five years
but would add the interest, at 5 per
cent. per annum, for five years, making
the note which his victim would be
obliged to sign, 1925, at 7 per cent. and
then try to make him believe he was
getting the money at II per cent
This agent is selling his mills at S35
without interest until the maturity Of
his notes, after which, he says, the
purchaser will be expected to pay Il
per cent. interest. Our home dealers
are selling as good tanning mills for
524. The smooth agent says he does
not ask a man to take his word for the
good qualities of his mill, but will go
to a farmers place and exhibit it at
work. He makes a great point of that.
Well, our home dealers have, for years,
had large quantities of grain, which
they we're buying and selling and
using for seed, stored in their ware
houses, and have always allowed farm
ers to try their mills before buying.
In buying from the home dealer you
are not being gulled, by having an
exhorbitant interest added to your
note. You buy the mill for what it is
worth and pay a fair rate of interest
for the use of the money until fall.
You also know that your home dealer
will have your note in his own hands
when it becomes due, and that he will
not sell it to some party who will force
collection at the earliest possible
moment, NJ matter what the circum-
stances. If you want fair dealing,
%patronize your home dealer and give
this peddler to understand that, al
though the suckers are not all dead
yet, he is fishing in the wrong pond.

Valuable Claim.

Inkster Tribune.
Miss Jennie johnson contested
a tree claim entry at Willow City
some time ago-in fact SO long
ago that she had entirely forgotten
about the matter until last Satur-
day, when she received notice
from the land Office at Devils Lake
that the contest had been decided
in her favor. Thus Miss johnson
unexpectedly comes into posses
sion of a valuable claim almost adj
joining the progressive little town
of Willow City. She went to
Grand Forks on Wednesday even
ing to make entry on the land.

Versailles, France, June %, 19O0-
Here, in this world-famed city of Yer
sailles, scene of the glory and splendor
of Louis XIV. received this morning
copies of The Intermountain Catholic
containing Miss Kelly's little descrip-
tive of the last services in old ST. Ma
rvs Cathedral in Denver, and the re-
moval of the bell to Logan avenue.
Not even the splendor of the palace.
nor the music of the fountains in the
beautiful gardens, were sufficient to
distract my mind from the scenes and
the ceremonies, so simple yet beauti-
fully and eloquently portrayed by Miss
Kelly.
And so the old Cathedral is gone.
and 1 shall see it no more. 1t is in
deed with regret that 1 recall the fact,
for the history and associations of the
holy structure are dear to the priests
and people of Denver. While it stood
it was monument to the memory of
the sanity Macheboet and revered Ra-
Terdy, whose graves, unmarked by
monument of stone, lie beneath the
mountain shadows hard by natures
towering domes in Mount Olivet
Yes, indeed, as Miss Kelly has OBJ
served, it is easier to tear down than
TO build up, and in the building of the
structure now demolished it was the
tears and the sacrifice of these two
men, which gave inspiration and hope
to the Catholics of Denver. If their
graves are yet unmarked by marble or
granite, and though the old Cathedral
be gone, the memory of these two
early apostles of Colorado will forever
remain in veneration in the hearts of
the people, for as Father Callahan said
of them, their zeal was strong. and
their work left fascination unequaled.

of his feelings on first beholding the
American flag. What he prayed to be
the destiny of that flag, so did I pray
today. The great archbishop said: Il
can even now remember my reflections
on first beholding the American flag.
1t never crossed my mind that a time
might come when that flag, the en-
blem of the freedom just alluded to.
should be divided by apportiOning it's
stars to the citizens of native birth.
and its stripes only as the portion Of
the foreigner. 1 was, of course. but
young and inexperienced and yet, even
recent events have not diminished my
confidence in that ensign of civil and
religious liberty. 1t is possible l was
mistaken, but still I cling to the de
fusion. if it be one. and as I trusted to
that flag on a nation faith, 1 think it
more likely that it's stripes will disap-
pear altogether; and that before it shall
be employed as an instrument of bad
faith towards the foreigners of every
land. the white portions win blush into
crimson and the glorious stars alons
will remain"

POPE LEO ON THE CATHOLIC
PRESS.


A Catholic newspaper in a parish is
a perpetual mission. Let all who truly
and from their souls desire that re-
ligion and society defended by human
intellect and literature should flourish,
strive by their Iiberality to guard and
protect the Catholic press, and let
every one in proportion to his income
support them with his money and in
nuence, for TO those who devote them
selves to the Catholic press we ought
by all means to bring helps of this
kind, without which their industry will
either have no results or uncertain and
miserable ones. LEO XII.

IRELAND's IRA.
DUCERS.

! copyrighted, 1900 by The Intermountain
Catholic)
Paris, France, June q, 190O-The cru
SADIE against Archbishop Ireland, to
which 7 referred in former letter,
still continues in Europe. These at
lacks are inspired by an American and
l make this statement advisedly A
literary hack in Rome who signs him
self G. M. Flamingo, the correspon-
dent of the New York Times, is the
medium chosen by Archbishop Ireland s
traducers to give publicity to insinua-
tons for which they themselves are
unwilling to stand sponsor.
Flamingo's TRADES against the arch
bishop of st. Paul are too thinly yelled
to hide their real source. OF course
no one for a moment imagines that
Flamingo has any other interest in the
matter than that which is measured
by dollars and cents, and unfortunately
any newspaper correspondent in Rome,
Paris, London or elsewhere on this side
of the Atlantic, whose venality prompts
him to disregard the ethics of his pro-
fession, can easily secure employment
to Witty the Archbishop of st. Paul.
The letter of Archbishop Ireland to
the Duke of Norfolk is still made the
occasion and excuse for placing the
former in an unenviable light
According to Flamingo, this letter
has caused "the most intense indigna-
ton in all the Catholic centers in Eu-
rope and has given rise to storm that
the titular of st. Paul will not find very
easy to ouell."
This letter, as the readers of The In
termountani Catholic will recall, was
an appeal for larger unity among En-
glish speaking Catholics. Strange as
it may seem, this appeal for a greater
spiritual union among the Anglo Saxon
Catholics has been tortured into an eff
fort at disunion, and a direct attack
upon Latin Catholicity, that is, the
Catholicity of France, Spain and Italy
So virulent did the insinuations be-
come, that Archbishop Ireland felt call
ed upon to repudiate the sentiments |
attributed to him in the following |
forceful language, contained in a let

I'm a correspondence from Rome,
published in q recent number of the
1 Journal de Geneve, it has been asserted
| that much surprise has been expressed
at Rome to hear that in a letter to the
Duke of Norfolk Monsignore Ireland
has denounced the temporal power of
! the Pope, the methods adopted by the
congregations and the Curia of Rome.
l can easily believe that none Of this
trifiing Che uses the French word
! 'fatras' which in italian would be the
ugly sounding guzzabuglioD has
reached the ears of your Eminence, or
that, should such a thing be known to
you, you would have treated 1t as it
merits, and have Immediately seen how
| false and ridiculous it was. In the let
Ter winch l had occasion to write to
the Duke of Norfolk, and which was
published in the Tablet and other
English papers, do not say one single
word about the Temporal power, the
Roman Curia or the Roman congrega-
lions. Most certainly no word has ever
escaped my pen or lips contrary to the
ideas of the Sovereign Pontiff upon the
Temporal Power. l know, thank God,
my duty as Christian and Bishop
sufficiently we'll not to speak or think
otherwise than the Sovereign Pontiff
speaks and thinks of such grave
matter, and one so intimately con-
nected with the life of the Holy Church.
What l write you today I shall
shortly have the honor of repeating in
person to your Eminence. l intend to
pay a short visit to Rome during the
summer, in order to once again receive
indulgences and to once again receive
with joy the Holy Fathers blessing, as
well as to present my respectful hon.
age to your Efninence." etc.
Notwithstanding this clear and ex-
plicit disavoWal of the un-C Christian SEN
timents attributed to him by his enc
mics, Archbishop Irelands traducers,
through their creature Flamingo, con-
tinue to malign and misrepresent him
as man, a citizen and a Bishop.
In strange contrast with his treat
ment of the Archbishop of st. Paul, is
the manner in which he writes of
the Archbishop of New York, of whom
he speaks as follows:
1T is known that the Cardinals hat !
winch was hung suspended so long over
the heads of Archbishops Corrigan and |
ireland, and yet has never descended |

The dignif1ed and distinguished Arch |

TO ENDow A COLLEGE.

The name of the pretty village oil

being written by many pens through.
out the United States and in many for.
eign countries as a result of a plan to
raise an endowment fund for Epiphany
Apostolic College, which is located
there. Journeying to Wolbrook for this
institution are scores of letters, con-
tanning the mites of those who have
been reached in the elaborate scheme of
correspondence through which it is
hoped to raise this fund.
The endless chain plan was adopted
by Rev. J. NJ. Kellogg, one of the Pro
fessors in the school, who has under
taken the task of collecting several
hundred thousand dollars, or enough
money TO secure an income that win
provide for about 100 students. The
college is now dependent upon volun-
tary contributions. and its work is
thus limited.
twenty-five cents is the donation be-
ing asked from each correspondent to-
gether with the names of three friends
who may also be appealed to. To raise
100000 in this way, even if every letter
brought a response, would require the
sending out of a very large number of
Letters.
An extensive card system has been
established, so as to prevent, as far
as possible, the duplication of letters.
BY a division into states and subdivis-
ions for every city of 1000 inhabitants
or over the names of correspondents
are easily available for comparison.
The replies so far are regarded as very
promising by Father Kellogg. They
have come from all parts of the United
States, Alaska, Canada, Europe, South
America. Cuba. Porto Rico and the
Philippines.
The college for which this endow-
ment is being raised is for fle training
of young men for the Priesthood in the
Josephite Society.
The Josephite Society is the only So
ciety of Catholic Priests in the United
States devoting itself exclusively to
Missionary effort
In 1892 the Society in this country
was made entirely indeuendent of the
mother house. Its headquarters are at
St. Joseph's Seminary, on Pennsylvania
avenue, Washington, where the
final studies are made for or
dination. There are not more
than thirty Priests in this So
ciety as yet, and Missions already es-
tablished are one each in Louisiana.
Arkansas and Alabama, two each in
Mississippi and Delaware, two in vir-
ginia and two in Baltimore.
Plans are also being considered for
locating Missions in Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippines.
The students at Epiphany Apostolic
College come from every quarter of
the world. Among the sixty students
who are there is one from Korea and
number from Holland, England end
Ireland.
Their work is not to be local in any
sense, further than they are to be
American Priests at work in American
dioceses.
Father Kellogg, who inaugurated the
novel plan for raising an endowment
fund, was born in Mississippi about
thirty years ago, and was reared as an
Episcopalian. AS youth he attended
the public schools, and later entered
college at Oberlin, o. He became a.

A CARD FROM BISHOP scANLAN.

1 feel it my duty to protect Catholics
and the public generally from fraud
and imposition by notifying them from
time to time that no person bearing the
name and garb of priest or sister or
any one else is authorized or permitted
to solicit or collect in this diocese for
any purpose whatever connected with
the Catholic church without having
from me permission in writing bearing
my seal and signature. Should any one
be found engaged in doing this unlaw-
ful work of collecting without such
document, he or she, as the case may
be, should be regarded by all as fraud
and an imposter. L. SCANLAN,
Bishop of Salt Lake.
