Besides the two brothers of the arch
bishop, there were present in the
room dozen priests, among them
Father Lavelle, rector of the cathed-
raj; the Mexican bishop; Rev. DR..
Starrante, Italian secretary to the
archbishop, and Father Curley, his
English secretary.
Most Rev. Michael Augustine Corrigan,
d. D., was born at Newark, N. j., in 1910.
His parents came from LeinSter, Ireland.
After having graduated from the schools
of his native place, he was sent to St.
Mary's college in Emmetsburg, Md. After
leaving ST. Mary's, In 1859, having made a
brilliant record as a student, he went to
Europe to take holy orders. In Rome he
was one of the Is students who registered
in the American college there when it was
opened. He devoted two years to the pre-
liminary studies of the college and then
began the study of theology. Although or
dained a priest by Cardinal Patrizi in the
Lateran Basilica, in 1863. he remained in
the American college another year, and
won the degree of doctor of divinity Dr.

his father was an instructor. He went with
his mother to California in 1854. in the ex-
element of stage coach and mining days.
While working on the Golden Era as a
compositor he began writing small sketches
which soon got him an editorial position
Later he wrote for the Californian. and all
this time he was gaining the mast valuable
experience writer could have. Securing
work from the government, he was able
to improve his writing. so much so that he
made his deput in the Atlantic Monthly
with THE Legend of Monte Diablo." In
1864 he wrote John Burns of Gettysburg"

NEW LABOR SOCIETY.
Intended to Include All In
skilled LabOrers.

st. Louis, May Ga special to the
Post-Dispatch from Carbonate, Ill.
says: Delegates from Illinois, Mis-
souri,, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Ken
lucky and Arkansas met here Mon
day for the purpose of organizing the
common laborers of America into a
national organization, which, if
formed, will take from the Fedora
ton of Labor nearly all it's unskilled
labor members. For some time an
agitation has been in progress in the
Federation of Labor against the pay
ment into the treasury of over one
eighth of the revenues without an
adequate representation in the feder
alton councils. 1t is estimated that
one-fourth of the membership is I'M
skilled and a tool to secure benefits
for the trades without any help from
the main body in cases of strikes and
locllouts.
The organization will be known as
the Amalgamated Common Laborers
of America, and is in reality seces-
sion from the American Federation
of Labor.

ton at Picking, remaining there con.
stantly until a few months ago, when
he returned to the United States on
leave. His connection with the de-
Tense of legations during the Boxer
uprising is highly creditable. He has
had military experience, and by vir-
tue of that fact was practically in
charge of the legation defense.
Gen. Bragg, the new consul general
at Havana, was born ut Unadilla, N.
Y, in 1927. He entered the union
army as a captain in 1861 and reached
the grade of brigadier general in the
regular establishment. He served for
some years in congress and after
wards was appointed United States
minister to Mexico. His present
home is at Fond du Lac, Wis. The
salary of the consul general is $4,000.
