HERO AT II YEARS
Irene Langley Saves Her Little
Brothers Life.
He Fell in River While Walking
on Bank.
SHE SAW HIM SINK.
Plunged Into Water and Caught
the Child.
SHE SAW HIM SINK.
Dragged Him TO Safety and
Both Were Rescued.

81 heard the water splash; looked up
and saw the white jug he carried and
his cap floating down the river. I ran
to the river bank and saw him going
down the third time and thought he
might drown, SO jumped in and pulled
him out by the shirt and suspenders.
That was the simple story of heroism
which Irene Langley, Il years old. 327

Frank, her S-year-old brother, who had
gone too near the waters edge, at the

had fallen in, late Tuesday afternoon.
The little folks had been sent by their
mother, Mrs. William Langley, to the

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS.
Membership and Influence
Constantly Increasing
in Louisville.

Louisville Council, Knights of Column
bus, now has a membership of over 300
of the leading Catholics of Louisville.
The council goes along quietly but eff
fectively with its work and is daily grow
ing in membership and influence. Those
who belong to the local council insist
that it is the greatest order now in exist
ence. 1t is certainly popular in the East,
and is growing in the West and South.
The leading Catholic men in Louisville,
or at least a great many of the leaders,
are on its rolls. AS social body It has
accomplished much in making Catholics
better acquainted with each other, and
no doubt has helped some in a material
way. Its aims are high and all of its OBJ
jects are worthy. While the Knights
have met with ecclesiastical opposition
in certain quarters, this appears to be
dying out. The Catholic priests in Louis
vile who belong to it are all charmed
with it.
1t has been said that the knights of
Columbus are little too high toned for
the ordinary run of people who join be-
nevolent societies, but this sentiment
prevails only to limited extent. The
council, it is true, is careful about admit
ting its members, and it ought to be. If
its members wish to accomplish anything
lasting it must of necessity have men of
probity, intelligence and standing in its
ranks. 1t would not do to admit every
Tom, Dick and Harry. The line is not
drawn in favor of those of wealth or
social position, but these things are duly
appreciated.
From what the Kentucky Irish Ameri-
can knows of the Knights of Columbus
and its members it feels like saying a
good word for it and wishes it all the sue.
! cess imaginable.

Catholic Negroes Are Orderly,
Industrious and Sought
After.
FATHER FELTON'S GREAT SUCCESS

The negro population of Louisville is
nearly $4,000, and of this number there
are several thousand Catholics, but all
are not regular church attendants. In
respect to church attendance the negro
is like the white man, mighty uncer-
tain" The negro Catholics who do at
tend church are among the best part of
the colored population. 1t is creditable
to them that they are not spending their
time in the Police Court, and they have
the respect of their white acquaintance.
When Father Spalding, now Bishop of
Peoria, ILL.,, lived in Louisville, thirty
years ago, he saw the necessity of having
a church for the negro Catholics of Louis
vile. They were allowed to attend the
white Catholic churches, but this was
unsatisfactory. Father Spalding pur-
chased ground at Fourteenth and Broad
way, which is now very valuable, and
built church. He would have remained
there if he had had his way, but he was
various pastors since Father Spalding
left, but it has never been so successful
as under the management of the present
pastor, who is a German, Father FELTON,.
Father FELTON, has just completed
new brick church, which was blessed
few Sundays ago. The colored Catholics
are very proud of it. There are but few
well-to-do Catholic negroes in Louisville,
most of them being Woodworking men
and women, but all of these contributed
cheerfully to the building of their church,
and are now doing all they can to pay off
the debt which they owe. The children
of these negroes also attend a parochial
school adjoining the church, which is
conducted by the Sisters of Mercy.
All who have watched the progTsss 81
the negro Catholics in Louisville are
pleased with the manner in which they
conduct themselves. They are orderly,
respectful and industrious Children who
are brought up under the ministrations
Of the Catholic priests and Sisters in
charge of st. Augustine's Catholic church
are much sought after by those who wish
faithful servants, male or female.
Father FELTON, is gradually increasing
the membership of st. Augustine's con-
gregation, and he has been highly COM
plimented by all who have inspected his
church for his good work. In taking
care of the colored Catholics he is doing
good work for the entire community.
In St. Augustine's church on Sundays
there is congregational singing and ves-
pers, and it is very beautiful and edify,
ing sight to see and listen to these colored
people sing. They naturally love music,
and some of them have very sweet voices.
There are several benevolent societies
connected with this church, the members
of which do much charitable work for the
roor of their race.

MAMMOTH CAVE.
First Owned BY an lriShman,
Whose Descendants
Retain 1t.

Among the first to explore Kentucky
and Indiana was an Irishman named Geo.
Croghan. who was then in the English
army. His descendants were patriots,
and one of them, Col. George Croghan,
was a Revolutionary soldier. Of this
family was DIR. John Croghan, a resident
of Louisville hundred years ago. DIR.
Croghan visited Germany at the begin
ming of the last century, and there heard
much about Mammoth Cave. He had
heard little about it here, and in this re-
spect was not different from the people
of the present generation, for few Louis
Vile people ever think OF going to NAM
moth Cave, while people from all the
European countries are constantly visit
ing the big hole in the ground.
After DIR. Croghan came back to Louis
Vile he purchased the land surrounding
the cave and the cave itself. He thought
it would prove a good investment. If
people in Europe were talking so much
about it he concluded they would visit it.
When DIR. Croghan died many years ago
he left a will in which he provided that
the property at Mammoth Cave should
be entailed, and his descendants are still
in possession of it. One of the curious
provisions of the will is that one man
shall manage the cave and another the

greatly add to its appearS5Gce. The Very
Rev. Francis Zabler is the ranking Ger
man Catholic priest in Louisville, being
Vicar General under Bishop McClos-
key. He is a very learned as we'll as a
very lovable man. He is exceedingly
popular, not only with his congregation,
but outside of it.
Rev. Father Alderman, rector of St.
Philip Neri's church, at Woodbine and
Floyd streets, is the soApss sne Of the
leading German citizens oof Louisville.
His church is attended by Germans and
English-speaking people and is becoming
more largely attended every month.
Father Alderman is very hard worker.
He has contributed literally from his
private fortune to the building up of the
church.
st. Georges church, 2706 Eighteenth
street, is also attended by German and
English-speaking Catholics. Rev. G. A.
Weiss is the rector.
All of these churches are attended
by large congregations on Sunday.
The true spirit prevails among the menu
bers and they are faithful to the teach
ings of the church. The Franciscan
Brothers and the Ursuline Sisters serve
the schools and churches of the German
Catholics, and they do it we'll.
In the county, Immediately adjoining
the Home of the Aged and Infrm,
Father Pfeiffer serves the congregation
of st. Helen's church. The congrega-
ton is made up of German gardeners
who reside on farms in that vicinity.
1t is very pretty church, and on Sun
days, no matter how bad the weather,
the attendance is large. Father Pfeiffei
also ministers to the spiritual welfare Of
the poor people who are in the Home Of
the Aged and Infrm who are of the
Catholic faith. Altogether the German
Catholics of Louisville have a great deal
to be proud of for their efforts to en-
courage education and religion among
those of their nationality,
