DUBUQUE, Notwithstanding Keane.
who, except for Senator Allison, may be
called the first citizen of Dubuque, has
gone to spend the summer at Bad Nau-
helm, near Frankfort, Germany, to take
the treatment of those celebrated springs.
He has been troubled with his heart for
several years, and while his health is still
vigorous he has to take good care of
himself. He is going nowhere else in
Europe unless the death of the pope
should cause him to change his plans and
make the journey to Rome. He Is now
on the French steamer Savoie on his Way

OConnell, his successor as rector of the
Catholic university at Washington. He
expects to return Sept. 20 and to re-
sumo his work. r..'
No man in this part Of the country is
nelo IN higher esteem or exercises a
greater influence than Archbishop Keane
There is none of greater learning and
ABILITY or wider experience; none of higher
ideals or greater solicitude for the welfare
OF his fellow men, Catholics and Protest
ants alike.
The friends Of Ben Ferris, the Chicago
Great western brakeman, whose lifeless
body was found beside the railroad tracks
Sunday morning, are strongly of the opin-
ION that he met with foul play and have
requested the coroner to begin an investi-
cation. It is understood he had rival fo1
