Bishop McGolrick said he was glad
that the Catholic church knows no diff
ference in men, asserting that it was

the millionaire. He expressed thanks
that these churches are built by the
poor, who contribute from their daily
wages to it's support. Rev. A. Hart
man, of the parish, closed the exer
cises by an address in French. In his
address he alluded to the bright future

contract calls for it's completion be-
