Shower of Stars.

There may be a chance to see tho
beautiful display of leonids, or, swift
ly moving meteors tonight or possibly
tomorrow night, as according to scien-
fists, the shower of stars is due about
this time.
The first display of leonids in this
country occurred on the 18th day of
November in the year 1888. A compu-
tation of their orbit showed that the
period of revolution around the sun
was thirty-three years. Figuring from
this another display was slated for
November, 1865. This however, did
not come off according to program in
this country, although there was quite
a display in Europe.
From that basis it was figured that
about the middle of November, two
years ago, was schedule time, and great
numbers of people all over the country
sat up all night. There was quite a
display of shooting stars at certain
points, but it was not by any means
what could properly be called meteor.
ic shower.
Then the astronomers began to fig
ure, and found that the meteoric train
must have been delayed and lost at
least two years, and are now out telling
the curious to be up either on the night
of the 18th or 18th of this month be-
tween midnight and o'clock, and they
will be rewarded with sight of the
helated display.

honored last Sunday by the presence
of Rt. Rev. James Trobec, Bishop of
St. Cloud, who came to confirm large
class of old and young, and the event,
more than an ordinary one for Father
Leving's church, brought out large
crowd. In the morning low mass was
said at the hours of 7,8 and 9, and at
10 o'clock solemn high mass (coram
episcopo) was celebrated with all the
solemn spirit and inspiring grandeur
of the church ritual. Rev. Tusech of
St. Cloud was celebrant, Rev. Levings
dean and Rev. Simplicus, O. S. B., of
St. Johns university, sub-deacon. The
little church was crowded almost to
suffocation, and great interest was
taken in the ceremonies of the impress
sive service. The bishop vested in his
cope and mitre, and robes of his high
Office, administered the sacrament of
the confirmation to a class of 1l2 per-
sons, old and young and of both sexes.
He explained in brief the deep signifi-
canoe of the confirmation rites, the
cross on the brow, the JUNCTION, and the
gentle touch on the cheek, and what
they signitied. He referred 20 the
growth of the parish since his last
visit here and to Father Leving's hard
and Jealous work. At the close of the
confirmation service the bishop
preached the continuation sermon, dwell

Inspector Ormsby of the free rural
delivery route service was in Prince
ton last Friday and Saturday for the
purpose OF inspecting the Estes Brook
route and also the route south through
Blue 'l .''9 Hill: Hill, Baldwin and Orrock. Mr..
Ormsby went over the Estes Brook
route, but on account of the long dis
lance and the poor condition of the
roads in many places, he could not
very well recommend the route to the
department. as in proper shape for SER
vice. There is in one place a mile or
more of road that has not as yet been
opened though it is travelled over by
farmers, but with the distance of thirty
miles or more on the route in the face
of the bad condition of the roads the
inspector was of the opinion that it
would be impossible for a carrier to
make the trip every day in bad
weather. The roads will have to be
fixed up on this route before the farm
ers can have free rural delivery. On
Saturday Mr.. Ormsby went over the
new route south of town and could see
nothing in the way of establishing SER
vice on this route as soon as a carrier
could be secured. The route is about
rs miles long and runs southwest from
town through Blue Hill to the Cal
braith school and thence into tho
northeast corner of Orrock township.
1t then skirts Elk lake and runs up
through Baldwin township and north
into Princeton from the east.
