To Escape tsae Golden Cup.

TOKYO, Dec. Is. - Mirzas Asghar Khan, the former grand vizier of Per sia. has arrived here on his way to the United States. The reason of his jour- ney is said to be that the governor of the province of Ratch received golden cup containing coffee which was pol soned and which the shah sends to of1- cials whom he wishes to banish from the world. The governor drank the coffee and of course died It was dis covered later that the golden cup was not sent <by the shah, and the grand vizier was accused of the act. where upon he was dismissed. Expecting soon to receive the fatal cup In his turn, he asked for and obtained leave to go on pilgrimage some miles from Teheran, whence he fled to the coast and then sailed for the United States.

POLISH CATHOLICS ACT.
Bishop Tierney Willing to Help Them in. Their Difficulties.

in Their Difficulties.
 At largely attended meeting of Polish Catholics held yesterday in Union City, resolutions were passed de- nouncing the Polish Independent Gath ollie church movement and protesting against Bishop Tierney's alleged treat ment of the Poles in refusing to give them priests of their own nationality. An executive committee was appointed as follows: IN. G. Boczkowski, Tor Tington; H. Kwasniewski, Meriden; F. Stockmal, Derby; K. Laskowslzi, New Britain, and J. Nalecz, Union City. Delegates were present from Bristol, Torrington, Hartford Meriden, Bridge port, Terryville, Rockville, Derby, New Britain, Ansonia and other places.
 Referring to this matter today. a Waterbury man who has given the sub- ject some thought, said that one of the principal reasons for Bishop Tierney's trip. to Europe the past summer was to procure Polish priests to minister to the Poles in his diocese. While visit Ing some of the bishops of PolaSld," he continued. Bishop Tierney was re- gretfu1ly informed that they had not sufficient priests to minister to their own parishes at home, adding, how ever, that they could send him some priests who would be of no use to him or the Polish people in his diocese. Un- fortunately, some such priests seem to have come over here and apparently are stirring up discord between good. simple people of Polish nationality, and the church authorities. The care of the Polish people occupies a deep place in the heart of Bishop THerney. He is doing his utmost to obtain young men of Polish parents as students for the priesthood whom he is willing to edu- cate, but so far he has found but few who were suitable. In the meantime 1t is matter. and serious one, of leaving the Polish people in charge of American born priests or of bringing in those who will make enither for their good nor that of the country. What is needed is patience. wise leadership and good judgment. and in the end all will be we'll They are Polish, but they must remember that they are also Catholics and in, this country must try to become good Americans"

NEARLY HALF A CENTURY.
Professor Dubois Death Brings Out
 Buried Romance.

Professor Dubois Death Brings Out a Buried Romance.
 New York. Dec 16.-A romance, bur- jed nearly half a century, has been dis closed by the filing for probate of the will made by Alpheus D. Dubois, who had presided over a public school of this city as principal for fifty-three years. He retired three years ago and died Sunday. The will aston ished even his most intimate friends, for it showed that he had amassed a fortune valued at one quarter to half million dollars.
 Tho romantic interest in the will arises from the fact that bequest fs made to Professor Dubois daughter Not even the old .schoolmaster' S. pe os. intimate friends. and his confidants were few, knew he had been married, and the testator, in@naming the daugil- ter, used only her given name because he did not know to whom she had been married. Investigation shows that the professor separated from his wife nearly fifty years ago. She went away, taking their little girl, and neither the husband nor his relatives ever heard from them again. They are supposed to be still alive and in this country. but where no one knows.
