Miners of Germany Determined on
Hard Fight.

Hard Fight.
Essen. Germany, Jan. 10 The stu
alton in the coal mining district is be
coming more serious daily The num-
her of strikers officially reported has
reached $4,000. The negotiations OF
the government commissioners thus
far promise nothing favorable. Yes
terday's conference at Dortmund with
representative of the mine owners
association was fruitless, the represen.
tatives of that association refusing to
even take part in a joint conference
with delegates from the mine opera
tives' union, which had been planned
for today. Non-union laborers are
joining the unions in great numbers
and the miners are evidently deter
mined to make a hard fight.

CHINESE REALM
To Be PRESERVED

Paris, Jan. 20.-The French govern
ment and other powers have received
a communication from the American
government which, if approved by the
powers, will exert a far reaching effect
in preventing terri orial breakup of
China when peace is eventually made
between Russia and Japan The
American initiative in this direction
is distinct from the recent note rela-
tive to Russia's protest against Chi
mas alleged breach of neutrality.
This latter note treats of the contin-
uation of China's neutrality In the
pending war. but the other communi-
cation treats of the Chinese territory
after the war is concluded.
This step is based upon informa-
ton reaching the United States gov
eminent that some OF the powers are
apprehensive that the eventual consid-
Grafton Of peace between Russia ard
japan viii lead to claims on portions
Of Chinese territory. The American
communication tends 10 avert the pos
sibility of such claims being made,
thus ensuring a continuance of the
present policies of the open door and
territorial integrity Of the empire.
Approve Communication.
The French. British and Italian gov
ernments have approved the American
communication. If the other powers
approve, it will constitute a notable
understanding that the powers will
not make claims on Chinese territory

ANACONDA. MONT

The news of the sudden death Of
Peter Hale at Gregson came as shock
to his many friends in Anaconda.
The body was brought from Gregson
and placed in A O. H. hall. Requiem
high mass was celebrated at st. Pauls
church by Father Coopman and Father
O'Brien.
Peter Hale was identified with the
progress of Anaconda and its early his
tory He was a generous impulsive
man and the soul of honor. He had
a strict sense of obligation and no man
who knew him would ask for better
assurance than the wo~i of Peter Hale.
Years ago he kept the company
boarding house at Carroll and soon be-
came acquainted with every man in
town. He served as chief of police
and was identified with Anaconda poll
itics in many ways. When Mr.. Hale
took possession of the Hale house in
Butte special train was run from
Anaconda to Butte carrying hundreds
Of his friends headed by a brass band.
Things prospered with Mr.. Hale in
Butte and he left there for New York
with a considerable fortune. Last year
he came back TO Montana and secured
a lease on Gregson Hot Springs.
Through the years that he was away
his friends had not forgotten him and
they went TO see him at GregSon. He
formed a partnership with NJ. P. La
velle of Butte and the two soon put
the resort upon a paying basis and one
which promised handsome returns in
the near future
Mr.. Hale had a hearty, whole-souled
way of meeting men that made friends.
A person meeting him for the first time
could not but see the big, Irish heart
within the man and feel his sincerity.
He was a member of the A. O. H. of
Anaconda, the Eagles and the Robert
Emmett Literary society of Butte. He
was born in County Sligo. Ireland, forty
years ago. He leaves widow and three
children.

MT. Calvary Cemetery.

MI Calvary cemetery has passed into
the hands of the clergy of the diocese,
the old lease having expired. The old
management is deserving of great
praise for their work, when it is re-
membered how the place was run
down before they took charge. They
have built it up, paid for an iron fence
at a cost of $1,000, and the ground is
free from incumbrance.

lowing officers We're elected: Monsignor
Robinson. manager; Father Carrigan,

pleased al the choice of John }. Hagus
as superintendent as il is largely due
10 his untiring efforts that the ceme-
terry has been kept in such fine condi-
ton. Mr.. Hagus has devoted fifteen
years of hard work to the place, and
his labors of the past are a guarantee
that a great deal more will be accom-
plished in the future.

THE SOCIAL BAN.
One Formidable Obstacle to Growth
of the Church.
STANDARD and Times.l

STANDARD and Times)
| One Of the most formidable obstacles
| to the growth of the Church is now,
! as it was in the early days of Chris
| tianity, the social ban. This operates
! so quietly that little is ever heard of it.
But it is all the more deadly and eff
] fective for the stiffness with which it
works. We have known many cases,
and we know cases now. wherein the
penalty of choosing ones religion, on
conviction of the truth, was social and
family ostracism and loss of material
! resources. The daring being who
| makes up his or her mind to embrace
the Catholic faith is the especial mark
of unnatural vindictiveness. The out
| cast Hagar, driven with her son into
the wilderness, was not in worse plight,
| before God vouchsafed her relief, than
many of those temerarious persons
who. believing that they have been
wandering in error, determine to seek
the right road to salvation. Much in
dignation is aroused by the news that
the Chinese have initiated a boycott on
American products, in retaliation for
Americas boycott of Chinese people.
But not zephyr will be stirred at the
announcement that the boycott is or
dained by Americans against Ameri-
cans on the sole ground that a change
of religion has been determined ON by
one of the parties. We are being con-
stantly assured that this is the most
tolerant and generous of all nations in
religious matters. AS a general prop
osition, the boast is quite correct. But
it is no less true that there is a deep
hidden current of anti-Catholicism
running under very tranquil exterior
This current is particularly strong in
nil 70 OF
stance Of its intensity and force has
just been brought under our notice
a young member of a distinguished
family has, after an independent eX-
animation of the subject, decided on
joining the Catholic Church. He had
previously been on terms of intimacy
with another family, conspicuous in
the commercial and industrial realm
Naturally his reasons for change of
creed gave rise to some talk between
himself and the younger circle in which
he moved, and was discussed in the
frank and friendly way common among
the young people of refinement and
social standing. To his surprise, a
few days ago the young convert re-
celVed note from the head of the
house, coldly intimating that his new
religious views were not looked upon
with favor, requesting him not to visit
the family any more, and forbidding
him to communicate with any of them,
either orally or by any other means.
We have been shown the note, and
its terms are those of downright boor-
lshness, assigning no reason whatever
for such breach of social etiquette.
But where intolerance and smallness
of spirit exist, who can expect good
manners? If we were to give the
names in this little social comedy the
effect might be startling.

In the meantime the young curate
| himself was not idle He rented a

The girls are paid by piecewOrk, and
the majority of them can now earn be-
! tween ten and fifteen shillingS a week,
| every penny of which finds its way
| into the pockets of the local shop

Portaferry contains about LOO in
habitants, and the wages earned in the
factory for the year ending February,
1905, amounted to eIS73, thus showing
| the success of Father Kelly's noble
efforts and the debt of gratitude the
people of the place must ever remain
under to him.
Yet it will scarcely be credited that
Father Kelly took such a heavy re-
sponsibility upon his own shoulders.
and that at time when the Industrial
Revival was not a fashionable fad and
when there was no department or
districts board in existence to give d
! helping hand.
4 This poor priest was thus mulcted in
some hundreds of pounds. which still
hangs as milestone around his neck
and, | am told, that it is due to the
earnings and unselfish devotion of a
sister that he is even now enabled to
pay the interest on the debt he so gen.
erously undertook for the sake of his
fellow creatures.
a fund has been now established to
try and recOup Father Kelly for his
heavy loss, and I shall be pleased to
acknowledge publicly any instalment
toward same.
I visited Portaferry factory for the
first time last summer and could not
help contrasting the healthy, happy
looks and sweet. clear voices (they
were singing an Irish ditty at the time)
with the wan, worn faces to be met
with mid the din and dust of the city,
where health and virtue have too often
to fight battle against overwhelming
odds.
Charity's crown of charity consists in
doing all we can to stave off the brand
of poverty from our fellow beings, and
surely in this case Father Kelly has
earned well his crown.
