department had figured on more dead

pecting what others do not re-
ceive. Very few menwould 90 iato

OF the trouble and annoyance II gives

The former can tip back their chairs
and laugh at IT as good eye opener,

To the citizens of Mineral Point;
The subject of a business mems
excursion from Mineral Point 70
Madison, July 30, has stirred up n
great deal of unnecessary feeling and
regret very much that it has
occurred, but now that it has occur
red we can only look back over the
ruins aud see where the trouble
could have been averted, In the first
place our citizens did not expect to
give any guarantee and there is no
doubt that S400 would have stopped
them as quick as $500. They sup
posed that the fact of their agreeing
to close their places of business on
that day ought to settle that question.
The fact is that the c., Nj. 4 st. =.

Dear Sir--No man Is more inter-

paint ON the houses you build than
you; not even the owner; not even the
painter.
And painters sometimes are sus-
peeted OF being more concerned FOR
the look than the wear. What Is
your opinion Which pays best, for
a painter To have his paint last three
years, or as long as he oanS He can
have II last six, II he wants to.
Lead aud oil lasts three; Devoe
Ready Paint lasts six, OF course,
conditions affect the time of both,
Most painters know that sine tough.

Former Sister Alleges She Lost Her
 Health Fropa Overwork.
 Omaha, Neb, Dec 24.--Miss Annie Cornell of Council Bluffs filed a suit in the United States court here yes terday against the Convent of the Sis ters of Mercy in Omaha for $30,O00, alleging that she had been forced by the authorities at the convent to do such work that she was a physical wreck.
 Miss Cornell was formerly a mem Der of the order, but some time ago secured special permission from the pope to withdraw from the society.
 According to hex petition Miss Con- nell became Sister of Mercy in 1891, receiving the name of Sister Mary Luigi Gonzaga. Although delicate, she says she was required to scrub floors and do other hard manual labor in the convent, and her health gave way. She says she was often forced to work eighteen or twenty hours daily.
 After she became a physical wreck, she says, she secured a dispensation and resigned from the order.

HIS SILVER JUBILED.

Kind Words and Deserved Praise for
 Former Waterbury Priest
 The Rev Father Treanor of St Pat rick's church, Norwich, completed the tWenty-fifth year of his priesthood on Monday. The occaSion was quietly observed, only his clerical neighbors and q few intimate friends being pres ent. The people of St Patrick's parish. conscious of the real worth of their pastor, were eager to give a substantial proof of their appreciation of the splen- did services Of the jubilarian. But he said no with an emphasis which left no doubt that the decision was final.
 Father Treanor has ample reason to be thankful for completing his first quarter of a century in the ministry. His twenty-iv years of service have been years of uncommon fruitfulness. He has labored with distinction as curate. He has organized parish, erected church and subsidiary paro- chia1 edifices, and conducted the affairs of his great Norwich parish 50 eff cientlv that his work has challenged the admiration of all who follow the current history of the diocese.
 The secret of so much success is not hard to find. Father ITeanor unites many of the qualities of the ideal pas tor He is a man of rare intellectual gifts. He is man of zeal, well read, uncommonly lowered with common sense, a prudent and painstaking execu- tive. His intellectual ability was recognized in his student days. Among the bright men of old St MaIy's sem mary, Baltimore, he held command ing rank. Nor was he admitted to or dination till he had abundantly distin- guished himself for solid scholarship. He left the seminary equipped for a splendid sacerdotal career
 The pastor of St Patrick's has more than borne out this early promise. The masterly manner in which he organ ized and built up the parish of the Sa- cred Heart in Waterbury marked him out as a man among men. So well conceived and so admirably executed were his plans that it became evident to all that a man of such ability would soon be clairAsd for broader fields. The Norwich parish was, in due season, committed to his care, and his success in perfecting the organization and liquidating the indebtedness of the church is the admiration as well of his fellows in the ministry as of the people of his immediate flock.
 It is a great satisfaction to note that the reverend jubilarian has performed his many 1abors quietly, sounding no trumpets before him and entering into no alliance with the press. Singleness of purpose has characterized him in every avocation. He has made no bid for human applause. content to spend himself without ostentation in the ser vice Of the Lord, leaving the issue to heaven.
 So much merit and achievement could not. however, pass unnoticed. Without seeking prominence. Father Treanor has easily won foremost place among the strong men of the diocese. He Is one of the bishops con suffers, 8 man of rare wisdom. able enough and modest enough to grace any position. May his splendid abili- ties be spared to the church of Connec- ticut for another quarter of century. Catholic Transcript.

He was then put on pro- Dation and he promised to do better. put he seemingly forgot his good promises when released from custody. TOT ne paid no more attention to the order or the court. He was sent to Jail to work out the fine
 Patrick Guilfoile also forgot to con- ply With the order of the court and  thereby keep in touch with the proba- ton officer the last time he was ..up,'' so this morning he had to face a double charge of intoxication and non.x compliance with the courts order. Off, cer Keegan found him on Spring street this morning, drunk. Guilfoile said he had the misfortune yesterday to run up against two glasses of cider. which would not stay where good ci- der is intended for. but went 10 his head. This cider was not given him by friend with bottle. bur was in barrel in cellar on Franklin street. In vain he tried to excuse himself and he was fined s and costs for intoxication and for non-support he was given the alternative of spend ing sixty days in jail or furnish bond of $2OO to pay his wife s a week for six months.
