A Sketch Of Cardinal Gibbons.

Hampers Weekly has the following
excellent descriptions of the person and
work of Cardinal Gibbons by Day
Allen Wiley:
"He is plain man-is Cardinal

modesty, even retirement, of his man.
ner. Although born dn Louisiana, he
was educated at one Of the older Cath
olic colleges in Maryland, and over half
of his life has been spent as resident
of that peculiarly Catholic center, Bal
timore. Here almost daily he comes
and goes amid the other citizens-a tall,
spare old man, whose figure age has
but slightly bent in spite of his 81
years. There is nothing particularly
imposing or impressive in his appear
ance, except that one may be struck
with the kindly dignity of his face.
The democracy Of his life, as it might
be termed, surprises one who knows
him only by reputation. Not even
carriage forms part of his establish
ment, and his household is governed
by frugality and economy. In a posi-
tion to live with all the state and os.
tentation of European prelates it is
foreign to the mans character. For
years he has followed the same routine
at home, rising at o'clock, and giving
ample time for his early devotions, OBJ
served either at his private altar or in
the cathedral. Following the plain
breakfast, he generally gives two or
three hours to his correspondence, one
Of the priests of the household acting
as his secretary. He endeavors to take
time for an hour Of business visits lat
er, as by virtue of his Office he con-
trolls most Of the church property in the
diocese, which requires much personal
attention.
"He is most interesting talker. The
variety of subjects he can discuss Is
really remarkable, ranging from reh.
gion to politics, and including the top

and mechanical inventions, and is thor

tions referred to Mm to solve-and
these are many. Not week elapses
but he is called upon to allow marri-
ages where the man or woman has been,

"Every kind of influence is brought.

ing, but the cardinal lives up to his,
convictions, which, as well known, are
very pronounced, and his decision is.

tense and he gives the closest attention
to those which may concern not only
the church, but the different classes Of
people at large. He has followed the
conflict of labor and capital as it has
developed, realizing its vital impor-
tance, and has questioned the ordinary
laborer, the heads of the unions, and
many of the largest employers in his
study of the problem. He has tried to
get i'm touch with both sides, and it can
be said that he has the confidence OF
each.
'"The cardinal takes an active inter
est in all agitation of benevolent char
acter, and mingles freely with repre-
sentatives of other creeds at such meet
ings. A few years ago at meeting to
discuss plans for relieving the poor at
Baltimore, among those on the plat
form were a Methodist clergyman,
Presbyterian minister and Jewish
rabbi, besides Cardinal Gibbons and the
governor of the state. His intense pat
riotism is a characteristic, and this
feeling is shown frequently in both his
verbal utterings and writings"

In letter to the lord mayor Of Dub
lin, William O'Brien, the fearless edi-
tor of the Irish People, expressed a
hope that if King Edward visits Ire
land next year his majesty will become
convinced that his subjects in tpe EN-
erald Isle are discontented and disaf-
fected to the core, ''only needing the
arms and training of the Beers to tes-
tify to their hatred Of England's rule
with an eloquence equal to that Of the
unconquered South African republics"
Evidently, Mr.. O'Brien does not agree
with Mr.. Wildwood, of Belfast, who
recently said in Minneapolis that the
Irish people are ''contented and happy"

There are 5000 Boer prisoners at
Bermuda, and they are poorly treated
by the British. They are miseraibly
clad and half-starved, their rations be-
ing bread and water with one pound of
beef day. The British colonel in COM
mand authorizes an appeal to be made
in their behalf to the people of the
United States. What the United States
government ought to do is to demand
their release and invite the prisoners to
make this country their home. 1t is
scandalous for England to starve her
prisoners of war ut our very doors.

Brown. The Queen kept John Browns

Hynes, an Irishman living at Kinvara,
county Galway, Ireland, was fined
recently for having his name on the
side of his cart in Irish characters
instead of in English letters. Five
Magistrates deliberated over the enor-
unity of the crime and finally fined him
one penny and costs, with the alterna-
tive Of going to Jail for seven days.
BARLEY refused to pay the fine and
the Magistrates have not yet sent him
to prison. The Gael, New York

He COULDN'T LOSE THEM.
The College Professor Told the Lost
Italians to Stay with Him and
They Did So.

There were 20 Italians in the party,
and not one of them spoke English.
They were going somewhere near
Boston to work on a truck farm, and,
while they had their tickets, they
did not know how to get TO their
train, and the gateman could not
make them understand that they
were too early. Through some over
sight they had been sent up from
Mulberry street without the usual
guardian, an Italian who speaks Eng
hsh- They were anxious and jab-
bered excitedly in their native
tongue. A Columbia university pro-
lessor, who was going-t Boston and
who spoke Italian. took pity on
them, says the New York Tribune.
you stay with me-" he said in
Italian, ''and I'll get you on the train.
I'm going your direction"
The swarthy Italian faces .beamed.
One of the younger men, who had
been badly frightened and thought
himself lost, threatened to kiss the
professors hand. All of them spoke
their thanks profuseIy. The professor
sat down on one of the benches and be-
gan to read. The Italians grouped
themselves as near as possible and
watched him.
Ten minutes later the professor
saw some women whom he knew en-
ter the station. He went across the
room to speak with them, forgetting
all about having told the Italians to
''stay with me-" They had not for
gotten, however, and started after
him like a pack of sheep. The pro-
lessons friends did not know what
to make of the picturesque and dirty
bodyguard.
''Are these some of your students?"
asked one.
mo, not exactly stammered the
professor, waving his Italian friends
back to their seats; a vain effort, by
the way, for the Italians were deter
mined to stay with him.
''They look like tramPs," began the
other women. 60, professor, are you
going to write one of those labor
books like Mr.. Wyckoff's
At last the train was announced,
and the professor guided his herd
through the gate. He thought he had
washed his hands Of them when he
put them into the smoker. They no
ticed that he did not follow, how
ever, and speedily got out again.
The leader saw him enter the chair
car at the rear Of the train, and
every Italian followed him on the
run. They did not understand the
porter, who told them to keep off,
and pushed their way into the car.
The professor finally got them seat
ed in the proper car and spent half
the journey wishing he had never
learned italian.
