ARCHBISHOP WALSH.
His Letter on the Celebration OF
Patrick's Day,

The following letter from Archbishop
Walsh to the National Holiday Com
mittce has been publisled:
Dear Sirs:-Your committee can, of
course, count upon my full sympathy
being with it in its praiseworthy effort
to have the festival of our National
Apostle observed in Dublin as a ma
tional holiday.
1t has always been Il humiliation to
me to read, as ! have been reading,
from year to year, of the impressive
civic celebrations of st. Patr;ck's Day
in New York and other cities beyond
the seas, whilst the only public cclc-
bration of it III Dublin-outsidc the
churches--was the gathering of a crowd
in the Upper Castle yard to witness
some military spectacle and dance to
the music of q military band.
AS to those who wish to celebrate
the feast day of our National Apostle
il, such Il fashion, no Dublin National
list, l feel confident, will ever think of
interfering with their liberty to do so.
We are q population of close upon
100000 people, and amongst us there
are, and always will be, thousands
who are out of sympathy with the feel
ings of the overwhelming majority of
their fellow-citiZens. But Dublin is
not Belfast. With us, it has always
been proudly upheld as Il civic tradi-
ton that every man. woman and child
in the metropolis is free, without fear
of molestatiOn, to hold and to express
as they may choose. their own particu-
lar views upon any topic whatsoever,
political or religious. May it never
cease to lie so.
But surely the time has come for
the vast majority of the people of our
city to recollect that they have other
duties to discharge than that Of ac-
cor.ling their fullest and most friendly
liberation to those who arc not of
their own way of thinking. They have
had before them for many year the
example of their fellow cOuntrymrn
abroad. Better late than never Let
them now at length follow that exam
pie by making the feast day of the
Apostle of Ireland civic. as It has
for centuries been religious. festival
in Dublin.-I remain. dear sirs, your
faithful servant,
WILLIAM J. WALSH,
Archbishop of Dublin.

THE CONFESSIONAL.
Its Secrets are Never Divulged by The
Priests.

Some cdfying facts may be related
concerning the secrecy of confession.
st. John of Neponuccnc, in Bohemia,
died Il martyr to the secrecy in the
year 1:'S:' He was a canon of the
cathedral of Prague and confcsSor of
the queen. King Wrnceslaus was II
brutal and lasty man. AS he was not
doing right he could not endure the
kind adviccS and gentle rcplOOf of his
piOus wife. In a fit Of jealousy he
wanted to know something about the
queens confession. lie questioned the
canon about 1t, but all in vain. He
had the priest imprisoned, but Oh ac
count of the Indignation of the people
he thought it more prudent to release
him. He had recourse to other means,
presents, offers of dignity, all IN vain;
the priest was unchAngclblc.
At last the king had him thrown in
to the river MOldau, where he drown
ed. And God gloritied the martyr.
His body was seen tlOating brilliantly
on the waves and twelve shining lights
surrounded his car. that ear with
which he used to hear confessions.
In 1854 a murder was committed IN
ORATOR., near Kief in Podnlia, and
the murderer went very early in the
morning to the vcstry of the Catholic
church, where he made his confession
to the parish priest, Kabylowics. Go
ing out. lie left behind him in the
victim, which was brought forth in
justice. The priest was accused, con-
dcmncd, and transported to Siberia.
The priest had only to speak to clear
himself. lie was silent, silent even
to his bishop. He remained sixteen
years in humiliation, shame and suffer-
ing. After that the guilty man OH his
death-bed declared himself the murder
or. The innocence of the priest was
:ittestetl and the authorities telegraph
ed to Siberia to release him. When
the order came, KabylOwics had just
died, burying the secret along with
himself. Through sixteen long years
of bodily and mental torture, faithful
to his God, to his prirstly duty! This,
however, is the disposition Of every
priest; he would rather die than be-
tray his seal.
4 young man born n Protestant used
to frequent a Catholic church close to
his home. His four sisters and his
mother, one after another had become
converts to the Catholic church. One
of the priests. having noticed that this
young man liked to hear the sermons,
sent for Him. AS the Young man was
well acquainted with him. he came
supposing it was for some business.
"My dear sir. see you arc fire.
gucnting our church," said the priest;
"why do you never join it:"
The answer was frank: "That is
impossible just now"
"And why? You do believe in it.
Is it on account of your friends, of
human rcspect"'

FROM THE CAPITAL

Frank Murphy walked off the Bethel
boat into the river about 10 o'clock
last Monday. He was new patron
of the place and macIuainted with
the surroundings. He shouted and
SWAIN and Officer Fitzgerald threw
him lifeline, and then walked him
to the police station to dry off. Muir
ply comes from Hastings.
Sudden death of Lawrence Russell, a
Milwaukee section foreman, deprived
Il woman and seven children of their
only support. Russell died without
warning late Tuesday from unknown
causes and Coroner Miller decided to
hold an autopsy. The Russells live ut
$50 Hester street. Russell started for
work Tuesday morning but returned
within short time and complained
that he was ill. He spent most of the
day at the house. When his wife call
ed him in the afternoon she found him
dead.
]. G. Donnelly, the wcll-known un-
dertaker, is lying seriously i'll at his
home, $50 Robert street. Mr.. Domelly
was taken down with severe cold
about two weeks ago, and this devel-
oped into grip. The attending physi-
clan is hopeful for recovery.
Thomas Flaherty, of 80 Valley street,
father of the late lamented Coleman
J. Flaherty, was buried last Saturday
at Calvary cemetery. Mrs. Flaherty,
before the casket cover was put Oh,
and after kissing her husband fare
well, dropped back and died almost in
stantly. True devotedness in life and
death, surely, is this. Mrs. Flahcrty
was buried last Monday beside her
husband.
Another sad death is that Of Mrs.
Michael Riley who was buried at CAL
vary cemetery last Monday. Some
years ago Michael Riley and his good
wife conducted a grocery store ut the
corner of Carroll and Western streets
and by close attention to business,
saved up considerable money which
they deposited in the Bank of Mime
sofa. 1t failed and they lost all. Mr..
Riley struggled in his old age, but at
last grew demented from his brOodings
and is now at Rochester. Mrs. Riley
also lost her reason but death came to
her rescue.

Lighter Receipts of Cattle Caused a
STRONGER Market

Chicago, June lighter
receipts today caused a stronger mar
ket than at any time this week and
prices were largely 10 cents higher for
good lots. Fat heavy are comprising a
large share of the receipts and unless
they are good in quality they sell less
readily than good fat steers of thirteen
hundred and fifty pounds and under.
Hogs Supplies are comparatively
large, but prices still snow firmness.
After an early weakness this morning,
during which time sons sales We're
made at a little lower figures, swine
sold up to yesterdays best prices.
