POPE PRAYs FOR DEAD PLELATE

New York, May Masses for the
rerose of the soul of Archbishop
Corrigan were said this morning
at st. Patrick's cathedral, and were
largely attended Later the body of
the archbishop was carried into the
cathedral and placed at the end OF the
center aisle and just in front of the
altar. The head, was placed toward
the altar and elevated. so that the
mourners could see the face of the
dead prelate when halfway down the
center aisle.
At the time there were thousands of
persons grouped about the cathedral
awaiting the hour when the doors
opportunity to pay last tribute of re-
spect to the archbishop. The body was
attired in the funeral robes.
The musical programme for the
requiem mass contains selections from
Mozart, Verdi and Ambrose Thomas.
After the body was taken into the ca
thedral a service was held, at which
absolution was pronounced. Father
Lavelle rector of the cathedral, re-
quested that no flowers be sent to the
cathedral because the archbishop was
opposed to flowers at funerals, and his
views should be respected. When the
doors were thrown open to the house
lines were formed by the police and
everything possible was done to give
every one opportunity to see the dead
preate's face the last time,
Rev. Dr. Ferranti. Italian secretary
to Archbishop Corrigan, made public
today a cablegram which was received
at the archepiscopal saresidence from
Cardinal Rampolla,z pontiffca1 secretary
of state at Romeyn expressing the sor
row of7Pope Leoat thefden1ise of Mgr.
Corrigan. The cab1egram was addressed
to DR.. Ferranti, and is as follows:
II The holy father with great sor-
row, learns Of the death of the
grand archbishop whom he hoped
to see in Rome very soon. His holt
ness, who appreciates very highly
the especial merit of sthe dead pre-
late. expressed his sympathy from
the depth of his heart forT the Met
ropolitan church of1New York, and
he prays GodntcrgiVe tonthe7 soul of
the great archbishop the repose of
the just andgtie premium of eternal
glory z- e. -

dent of the State Federation of Labor.
From this it will be surmised that
Mr.. Sullivan was the labor candidate
for MAYOR. This is correct. Like the
present MAYOR of Bridgeport, Denis
MuIvihill. another man of Irish blood
lin fact a man of Irish BIRTH, the
newly-elected mayor Of Hartford was
not bound to either party, Republican
or Democratic. Instead, he ran on the
ticket of the Economical League, an or
ganization within the ranks of organ
lied labor. This league proved itself
sufficiently strong at the Democratic
primaries to land" the nomination
for mayor. 1t was expected that many
of the regular Democrats would cut
the mayoralty candidate and that he
would be knitted by the ring" but
these things did not occur to the ex-
tent the Republicans hoped, and the
labor vote went for Mr.. Sullivan solid
" in q body. His plurality was a sur
prise IT, the friends of the Republican
nominee. who expected the usual Re
publican majority by obtaining enough
Democratic votes to offset the deser-
tion of Republican Workingmen to Sui
Ivan These calculations all fell fiat,
however. and an Irish American labor
candidate is at present elected mayor
of one of the most exclusively Yankee
New England cities.
OF course Mr.. Sullivan, together
with being of Irish descent, is, as his
name sufficiently indicates, . Catholic
IT is to the credit of the newspapers
which opposed Mr.. Sullivan's election
that they did not mention this fact in
any sighting way. or indeed in any
way during the campaign. 1t shows
that New England, the old-ti time stamp
ing ground of the Puritans, is being
pretty thoroughly leavened with the
ieaven of tolerance and broad-minded-

A New Catholic Admiral.

Captain James H. Sands of the
United States navy, whose nomination
for promotion to the grade of rear ad-
miral was sent to the senate by Presi-
dent Roosevelt. is a Catholic. He has
many friends in this city, one of his
most recent assignments being as gov
ernor of the United States naval home,
Gray's Ferry road. -
The new admiral was born in the
District OF Columbia, appointed to the
naval academy from Maryland in 1853
and graduated in 1853 He was made
an ensign in the same year and served
with the North Atlantic blockading
squadron until 1865. and then on the
South Atlantic blockading squadron.
He was in both attacks on ForI Fish
er. and twice recommended by the
board of admirals for promotion for
gallantry on shore during the second
attack. He was captain OF the cruiser
Columbia during the war with Spain.

IGNATIUs A. SULLIVAN.
A Young Irishman Elected Mayor of
Aristocratic Hartford.

Another New England city has elect
ed as its chief executive a man of Irish
name and Irish lineage. This time it
is Hartford, the capital city of Con-
necticut, which has shown its appreci-
alton of ability and true worth by
choosing as its mayor Ignatius A. Sui
Ivan. Great Britain may deny to
Irishmen in ireland the right to govern
themselves, but New England knows
better. Men. Irish by birth or blood,
preside as mayors over perhaps a dozen
New England cities at present, writes
Denis A. Mccarthy in the Catholic Co
lumbar.
Ignatius A. Sullivan, the new mayor
elect of Hartford. was born at Canton,
Mass, Aug &C. 1867 he went to Hart
ford seven years ago to enter cloth
ing store as clerk. He had engaged
previously in the same business in
Holyoke and Springfield, Mass. Early
in life he learned the trade of paper
maker, and when % years old was su-
perintendent OF the factory of the Ma
tional Metal Edge Box company of
Readsboro, VT. He resigned that place
to go into the clothing business. Some
years ago he was one of the organ
izers of an association of retail clerks
which later affiliated with the Central
Labor union. He was president of the
clined reelection. He was president
of the Central Labor union for one year
and is now on his, second term as presi-

Preaching and vacant Pews.

The very strenuous young man who
has been elected district attorney Of
New York made a speech recently be-
fore the mems club of a church in New
York. a great part of the audience
were church-goers, and two ministers
were upon the platform The remarks
of the speaker were at times inter-
rupted by the singing of hymns in an
adjoining room of the edifice.
Mr.. Jerome said among other things
and this is the portion of the speech,
which, in view of all attendant circum-
stances. the public Office of the speak
er and the ecclesiastic nature of his
auspices among others, we deem it
well to reproduce.

The Shamrock.

Mr.. G. O'Brien Of Buffalo gives, in
the Union and Times, the following
interesting talk about the chosen leaf
Of bard and chief:
with reference to the shamrock,
viii say that there are five different
species which botanists call by the fol-
lowing names: Trifolium minus, trf-
folium repens. trifolium pratense, medi=
eage lapulinaf and 9oNalis acetosella.
Authorities differ as to which is the
true shamrock Tor more correctly
spelled seamrog). Some ancient authors
assert that oNalis acetosella or wood
sorrel was the trifoli made use of by
st. Patrick. yet twenty-five counties
and parts of counties in Ireland say
that trifolium minus is the genuine
one. The shamrock will grow in any
country, even in England. if properly
cared foi. There is not city in the
United States but has pots of genuine
shamrocks growing. You VIII lind some
OF those pots for sale in the market
places. In Eetit Menan in Washington
county. Maine. there are acres of sham
rocks growing as green as they ever
grew in Ireland. There is a tradition
connected with this fact and some
shipwrecked Irish emigrants which is
too lonC to insert here. In the transac-
tions OF the r. L A.. Vol. XIV, it is
stated as q curious coincidence the ire
FOIL plant shamrock and shamradh in
Arabic is held sacred in Iran and con-
sidered emblematic of the Persian
Tread So you see it grows in Persia,
it grows in Africs and it grows in this
country. The blossom on the red or
white clover grows in small round
bunch of honey and can be sucked out
of it, but it is not so with the sham
rock. which has tiny, slender purple
flower. the shape Of vase and which,
I think. is the trifolium minus.
