COMPLETING
THE EXCAVATION
Improvements at Convent Here Well Under
Way.

The excavation for the new chapel and
the annex to the convent at this place
is now about completed and the mason
work will begin in few days. An en-
ormous quantity of earth has been re-
moved, the digging at the upper side 60
ing down to depth of sixteen feet w.
A. Shepperson of this city is the con-
tractor.
The annex and tie chapel, which ad-
join each other, will be two roomy, sub
stantial structures built of brick, the
former 32xl32 feet and the latter 41x57
feet Together with the mansion they
will form a rather imposing pile of ma
sonry.
The chape' a fill a want that is very
keenly fu,t at present. The annex to
the convent will contain twenty eight
rooms. 1t will have all the modern
conveniences, baths, steam laundry, &c.
In addition to the orphanage which
contains thirty nine children, the con-
vent itself has very important mission
and an enlargement was imperative. 1t
belongs to the order Of Sisters of Christ
ian Charity, six hundred of whom there
are in America. The mo her house in
this country is at Wilkesbarre, whence
the sisters" are sent opt over The length
and breadth of the country to teach,
take charge of orpanages, &C., as they
may be needed. There is but one other
house belong ing to the sisterhood III
this country and that is at this place,
which may be said to be branch of the
mother house
The convent here, however, is devoted
to the care of the inffrm and the sick
and SO far as these are concerned it re-
presents all of America. 1t gas select
ed largely on account of its beautiful
grounds and healthful location as place
where the sick might be nursed back to
health and the last days of the aged sis
ters whose long lives have been given to
suffering humanity, might be passed in
retirement and tranquility. The num-
ber of inmates constantly varies. At
present there are some thirty five sisters
at the convent.
Rev. A. NJ. Feeser is chaplain of the
institution. He is young man, but has
had an eventful career. He was a priest
in the province of Monte Cristi. Ecuador,
South America, but was expelled in the
uprising against the government in
1895.

FOCHT BALLOT
BILL DENOUNCED
Resolutions Passed by the Pomona Grange
Yesterday,

Pomona Grange, No. 81, p. of H., rep
resenting the counties of Montour and
Northumberland, held its regular quart
erly meeting in Red Mems hall,
this city, yesterday. The attend
ance was rather slim owing to the cold
weather and rough roads. 1t was a fifth
degree meeting, the sessions both
morning and afternoon being devoted
to business exclusively. Officers were
present as follows:
K. l.. Montgomery, of Lewis township,
Northumberland county, Worthy Mast
er; j. K. Murray, Pottsgrove, overseer;
Miss Emma Lewis, Chulasky, secretary;
Charles V. zimmerman, Esq, Danville,
lecturer; A. L. Litchard, McKee's
Heights, steward, and J. p. Frederick,
Watsontown, assistant steward.
After the usual order of business per-
tanning to the secret affairs of the order
a resolution was unanimously adopted
denouncing the Focht Ballot Bill
and urging our representatives in the
Legislature to support the Bedford Bal
lot Reform Law.
1t was decided to hold the next meet
ing at the home of j. z. Frederick, of
Watsontown on the first v ednesday in
June. The meeting will be an open one.
Among the visitors present from Column
hia county Yesterday were Mr.. and
Mrs. Il. II Diidine, of Rohrsburg, and

On Foreign Missions,

Hon. Daniel W. McCurdy, of Clear
field, delivered an address in st. Paul's
M. Z. church Sunday night en- the SUBJ
ject of Missionary Work" A very large
congregation turned out to hear him,
the spacious auditorium revealing few if
any vacant seats. Mr.. McCurdy is a
jealous Methodist as well as a fluent
and able speaker. He is layman and
he spoke from laymans stand point.
Rev. II. O. Harman introduced him as Q
man "who serves God as business and
practices law to pay expenses.
The speaker declared himself believ-
er in old fashioned Methodism with it's
shouts and hallelujahs. If the church
would survive, he said, it must stand by
its amen corner, its class meetings and
old-fashioned revivals.
The disc ourse no doubt succeeded in
awakiDg the congregation to full re-
alization of it's duty in the cause of
foreign missions. The individual, he
held, who gives but one dollar when he
could spare five is not only retardng his
own spiritual growth, but robbing God
and robbing himself. Churches likewise
make mistake, acting upon the unchrist-
ian principle that church's first duty is
to itself, many spending money upon
buildings, etc. that might be devoted to
the missionary cause. What is subscribed
is often given in the spirit in which O.
bone is thrown to dog, saying: "Take
it and 60"
With enlarged national prestige has
come enlarged national responsibility.
The Philippines constitute a new field
for our missionaries, which we can not
ignore without ignoring our duty to God
and the flag we have planted there.
