High DER the cliffs of the winding bay,
Wniling the night and watching the

Come mourning groups to pray and

Or catch some token from the silent

Touching port ut the mystic caves,
The Rio drifts for cvcrmorc,
Close to The hearts OF her friends on

There is another point to which I
would like to call special attention.
When we Catholics unite IN body,
we select Il name which includes, as
a rule, the word Catholic" Some
times, of course, the nature OF the
work renders this necessary, but there
are occasions when the use Of this
term misrerlesents our position. No
one hears of "Methodist or of an
Episcopal Debating Society,"" but with
us, whether the society be religious or
merely composed of Catholics, the
name "Catholic" is often put in the
foreground, and not always to it's cred
it. 1t is rarity due to this that the
sects can advance their claims before
legislative bodies, and are not thought
to act otherwise than as Americans
exercising the prerogatives OF citizen
ship. Whereas, when we advocate
any measure, our citizenship is over
Swallowed in the minds of others by
our church. and we are looked upon
not as Americans seeking our rights,
but as Catholics asserting the claims
Of our church. This is an unfortunate
position, and an obstacle to the attain
ment Of justice.
Too much emphasis cannot be laid
upon the fact that this is not a move.

WALL STREET TAKES
A BRIEF VACATION,
Stock Exchange Will Be Closed
Tomorrow and Saturday as
Well as To-Day.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
New York, July 3-Wall street will have a
three-days vacation from business as re-
suit Of the action of the Governing Com
mittee of the Stock Exchange this morn
ing in deciding to close the exchange on
Friday and Saturday, as we'll az tomorrow.
All the members of the exchange were IN
favor of this step. although the committee
had decided earlier in the week that the
exchange should remain open.
The action of the Governing Committee
was awaited anxiously. and approval Of its
determination was vociferous when the re-
suit was announced. The fact that The
banks favored closing Influenced the action
of the committee principally and the banks
will also shut down, as far as possible, be-
cause many of their men. especially the
loan clerks, have been overworked.
Impromptu celebrations marked the an
nouncement in the various brokers' offices.
and clerks and staid members of firms
hailed the announcement OF the short vaca-
ton with delight.
The thermometer was notable factor in
speculation to-day. and many bets on the
variations of the temperature within a
specified time were made. Some of the bet
tors seemed to be more fortunate in deter
mining the fluctuations of the stock market
than in getting line on the mercury.
Dress reform seemed to have struck Wall
street with vengeance this morning, and

the possible combinations of hot-weather
clothing, even aside from that worn by the
ordinary "shirt-waist man." The conven-

was the exception, and on change the
brokers' WED with each other in exhibiting
their ideas of the best possible means OF
keeping cool without violating either the
rules of the exchange or the conventions.
The members of the Cotton Exchange will
be unable to close on Friday and Saturday.
Friday is regular notice day for delivery or

ton of the crop is also urged by the officers
of the exchange as a reason why 1t would

-Four hundred fresh hen eggs were sub

for period of eight months. At the .expira-
ton Of that time 1t was found that the eggs
which had been put into salt brine were all
spoiled; that those which had been wrapped
in paper were 50 per cert bad. and that a
like percentage of those which had been i'm
mersed in mixture of glycerir,e and SAIL
cylc acid were unfit for use.
"Of the eggs which had been rubbed with
salt, or imbedded in bran. or coated with
paraffin, 40 per cent were spoiled: of those
subjected to a coat of liquid glass, collodion
or varnish, 40 per cent. and of those which
had been placed in wood ashes or perman-
ganate of potash. only 20 per cent were bad.
Almost all the eggs that had been coated
with vaseline or had been placed in lime
water, or a solution of liquid glass, were
in good condition"
