spent the balance of the money TO pnr-

the 100000 was to be spent ON Improve

chasednew sites without the consent Of
the people, where the expenditure for one
current year does not exceed $4,000.

CARDINAL SATOLLI COMES
ON AN IMPORTANT MISSION

ROME, May 27.-Cardinal Satolh left
this morning for America.
WASHINGTON, d. c., May 27--
Though they decline to discuss the mat
ter publicly. it is known that the Catholic
church leaders in Washington and else
where throughout the country are indulg-
ing in much speculation just now as to
the real purpose of Cardinal Satolli's visit
to the United States. His eminence sailed
from Naples today, and it is understood
that upon his arrival in New York he will
proceed direct to this city. Several stories
are current as to the object of the car
dinals visit, but all of these are palpably
more in the nature of excuses than rea-
sons. 1t is not believed in well-informed
circles that he is coming solely to visit
the st. Louis exposition, nor is it regarded
as likely that the purpose of his trip is to

nOunced in a recent Philadelphia dispatch.
More reasonable is the story that APP
peared in recent issue OF lie Figaro of
Paris, which declared that the real pur-
pose OF Satollis visit was to institute an
inquiry into the present condition of Ro-
man Catholicism in the United States and
to investigate serious difficulties said to
have IL zen between the apostolic delegate,
Balconio, and majority OF the American
bishops.

bration of his Tooth birthday, Septem-
Der 10, was quite an event in that
section and many towns and several
states were represented among the
guests. Mr. Streeter had been a re-
markable man in many respects. He
always had enjoyed good health, and
had charge of the family garden last
summer. He was a great pedestrian.
His home was at the foot OF Mine
mountain and even up to last sum-
mer his greatest delight was to roam
in the woods. He spent much of his
time in lining wild bees and had OBJ
tanned tons of honey from their homes
in the woods. Always a farmer and
worker in the woods during the winter,
he seldom awaited himself of the use
of a horse as means of travel, but
went on foot to any distance that he
could cover between sunrise and dark
ness.
He was the father Of 10 children, Of
whom six are living and at the time of
his Tooth birthday he had AZ grand
and AZ great grandchildren
making an even 100 descendants.
