~, Bishop Matz. In it he practically
.eitar7ted his expressions of the week
before showing that his ideas had not
N the least been changed by the criti-

The engagement of Miss Ella Null

quite popular in Catholics circles. Mr.. |
Wechbach is also well known here and |
is a member of the knights of Co |
lumbus. The wedding viii probably |
be a large church affair but the date
has not yet been set.
