Superior-A Big Delegation Goes on
the Excursion and Takes the
City Band With Them

A large delegation of the mem
bers of the Independent Scandi-
navian Workingmen Of America,
and about one hundred and
seventy five citizens left here at
seven o'clock last Sunday morn
ing, via "The BattleAxe' for
Superior, where the members Of
the I. S. w. A. were going to
participate in the closing cere-
monies and festivities of three
days session of their Grand
| Lodge of this locality. The
Grand Lodge convened in Su-
perior last Friday and was in
session till Sunday afternoon at
five o'clock when it closed with
a grand parade, in which the
members of the Superior Lodge
and all visiting lodges partici
pated. The [. S. W. A. was
organized in Eau Claire in 1892,
on a good substantial life insur-
ance basis, and ever since it's
organization has enjoyed asteady
growth, till at present they have
a membership of three thousand.
That they are enjoying a rapid
and substantial growth is evinc-
ed by the fact that at the
Grand Lodge held at Rice Lake
! a year ago there were but thirty
two subordinate lodges repre-
scented, while at the session held
at Superior last week there were
representatives of fifty eight
lodges present; a very noticeable
increase in one year, and one
which speaks highly for the
merits of the association.
The excursion trains began to
arrive as early as $40 Sunday
morning, and the reception COM
mittees were kept busy from
that till IL 100 a. m.-the hour at
which the delegation of three
hundred from this city, accom-
panied blythe local band arrived,
aggregating in all over seven
thousand visitors. At half past
two the members of the
Association repaired to grounds
near the city hall, where an in
teresting programme was rem
dered, consisting of music by
the various bands, several songs
by the Nordon Male Chorus and
addresses by the Hon. n. p.
Haugen, of River Falls, and i'll.
p. Peterson, of Superior, all Of
which was well rendered and
thoroughly appreciated. The

and twenty-six members and

by Chairman Nels Nelson, O. O.

AN IDEAL CAPITALIST.

The ways of Mathew c. d. Borden of
New York. owner of the American
print works and iron mills of Fall
River, Mass, are certainly out of keep
ing with men in his own class. And
throw much light upon the attempts of
employers to reduce the wages. of their
employees. Without solicitat ton from
any source Mr.. Borden advanced the
wages of his 1900 men and women 5
per cent less than a month ago. An
other increase of 5 per cent is now
announced.
AS stated less than month ago. the
Manufacturers association, of which
Mr. Borden is not member, voted to
reduce wages 10 per cent because of
alleged depression in the business, and
Mr.. Borden exposed the scheme and not
only changed the complexion of the
cotton goods trade throughout by pur-
chasing the entire surplus of the mills
forcing UP the price of prints several
points, but effectually thwarted the
wage reduction plan.
After cornering the market in print
cloths, and profiting immensely by the
sale of mourning goods, Mr.. Borden
shares his prosperity with the persons
in his employ by making a voluntary
offering of a material advance in their
pay. When this news became known
among other manufacturers they were
dazed. 1t was unexpected, and from
their position, uncalled for and reck-
less movement.

Definite Idea of Pope's Jubilee

AS the time draws near for the cele-
bration of the silver jubilee of Leo
XIII's pOntificate a more definite idea
of the details accompanying the grand
event can be realized. OF course, on
Feb. 20 the event will be celebrated
with all the grand ceremonial of the
church appropriate to an occasion of
this kind. Dignitaries of church and
state from all parts of the civilized
world will be present then to do honor
to the great pontiff. But the celebra-
ton will not be confined to the Eternal
City; Catholics everywhere will have
an opportunity of showing their love
and veneration for the Holy Father.
The committee appointed at Rome to
make arrangements for the jubilee pro-
poses as the first part of it's pro-
gramme prayer for the pope and
church. The restoration of the Sover-
eign Pontiff's own cathedral church, the
Basilica of st. John Latern, now in
much need of repairs, is to be one of
the results of the jubilee. The provid-
ing of vestments and other sacred OBJ
jects for poor churches is specially rec
commended. During the second half of
next. April there will be a great pill
grimage from the Catholic world to
Rome. Finally, the faithful are re-
minded that for the immense spiritual
interests which Pope Leo has at heart
there is no other temporal resource now
except the generosity of the faithful

her strenuous interest in the mission
of her order, the education of young
women and girls.
Her illness was sudden and its ter

day to day was always planned and
carried on to as much completion as
human foresight can provide, and in
that respect it was not left unfinished.

Remarkable Irish Woman.

Rev. Mother Ignatius of the Convent
of Mercy. Bathurst, is probably the
most remarkable woman in Australia.
says the Catholic Press of Sydney.
She is a sister of Archbishop Croke of
Cashel, one of the most distinguished
of Ireland's prelates and patriots, and
although she is now S4 years of age,
her mental faculties are as fresh as
ever. Some short time back she met
with slight accident, from the et-
fects of which she has not quite re
covered, but otherwise she is in sound
bodily health, and is likely to live and
to take a keen interest N the order
for many years. Mother Ignatius is
one of the company of twenty -four
nuns who came to Australia with the
Bishop of Maitland and the late Or
Quinn of Bathurst, arriving in sgd

nine priests on board. AS Bishop Muir

CLERGY FUND ASSOCIATION.
Chicago League of Priests Organized
For Benevolent Purposes.

(ChlcaSo 1rlDune.)
On the occasion of the fourteenth an
nuaI meeting of the Clergy Fund asso.
citation, which took place on Nov. IA al
the Cathedral of the Holy Name, the
members of the association decided to
make known to the public the facts
concerning its organization and pur-
poses. So well has the secret of the So
ciety been hitherto kept that little OF
nothing has been known about it by
non-members.
The society is composed exclusively
of Roman Catholic clergymen. 1t thus
becomes. at the first qualification, one
of the most exclusive societies in the
world. No layman or woman may ever
be initiated. Archbishop Feehan of the
Archdiocese of Chicago is president
and before admission each aspirant for
membership must be approved by him.
Pastors and subordinate fathers of the
Catholic church, in good standing. who
apply for membership, however, are al
most invariably passed upon favorably
by the Archbishop.
The object of the society is beneficiary
to help those of it's members who
become sick, and occasionally to afford
vacations to those whose limited income
forbids even a brief rest. The sum of
$50 a month is donated to each member
who becomes sick, and in the case of his
death, the full funeral expenses are as
sumed A small annual stipend is con-
tributed by each member, and the sum
thus accumulated is drawn on for the
purposes indicated. In case of a sur
plus at the end of the year the finance
committee is usually empowered by
vote of the society to make investments.
Archbishop Feehan, the president of
tho SnpiefX- also
started with a membership of fifteen
priests. At present there are over $50
names on its rolls. There are several
committees to look after the business
Of the organization. each one being
complete in itself. Among them are
the visiting committee, whose members
call upon the sick and infirm priests;
the committee on entertainment whose
members arrange for an occasional So
cial affair. and a finance committee.
The annual gatherings of the society
are said to be exceedingly impressive
affairs. The meeting place is always
the Holy Name Cathedral After SOL
emn requiem high mass has been said
for all members deceased within the
year, adjournment is taken to the par
sh house, and the business of the So
ciety, including the election of officers,
takes place.

The Wage-earners, Pontif.

Leo XIII has been and is the best
friend and ablest advocate the wage
earners have. From time to time the
Holy Father has recommended the
formation of associations to look after
the material welfare of the workers.
These associations should seek to pro-
cure increased facilities for labor, and
to enforce the just claims of the Ia
borers in their relations to their mas
ters. Leo XIII does not hesitate to de-
clare it to be the duty of the gov
ernment to treat the working classes
with consideration, and to discourage
luxury and greed among the rich. The
Pope is the best and truest friend of
the workingman. He does not over
look the grievances of the wage-earn-
er and is the only living infallible ex-
positor of the true Christian political
economy, which teaches that the Ia
borer is worthy of his hire.

Catholic Exhibit at worlds Fair.

Out in st. Louis, where everyone is
enthusiastic over the coming Worlds
fair, strenuous efforts are being made
to outdo all former enterprises of this
kind. They are planning to have a
Catholic exhibit that will be something
more than an exposition of the progress
of the church in this country. If the
idea expounded by some of our st.
Louis Catholic contemporaries does not
miscarry about all the treasures of the
Vatican will be transported across the
Atlantic to the fair, accompanied by a
detail of the famous Papal Guard.
These trophies will include sacred rel
les, priceless manuscripts. with other
treasures that have never been dis
turbed except for use in an impressive
ceremonial of the church at Rome. The
federal government is to pc asked to

You won't see much more leading on

NIT that the leader of Tammany hall
should stay in New York, all the year
round, and / cannot stay here for more
than part of the year. If | tried to stay
here all of the time l could do no work at
all.
''All this talk about me being state
leader and trying to dictate in national
politics is nonsense. I am in no con-
dition to do any kind of leading, but of
course | will always take deep interest
in Tammany, the best l can"
When asked if ne was training anybody
to succeed him as leader he replied: "Oh,
l have not come to that yet, and have
not planned my future. except that ] will
go to England in January or February.

meet next month. and you may hear more
of the matter then"
