prayer delivered in
Latin on October II, and Andrew
Carnegie will smile at them mean

beyond what they deem a proper

chuclle, for he takes no stock in
dead language as AN aid to educa-
ton and is not at all strong on

The occasion of this unique dem
orstration will be the installation
OF Mr.. Carnegie for the second time
as rector of the oldest OF Scotch uni
versities. Ever since the foundation
Of the university, carly in the if
teertH century, the ceremonies at
terdant on the Installation of the
rector have been opoled b. a prayer
in Latin. Prior TO the reformation,
of course, it was regarded as some
thing sacred. Just w;ien the stu

I-rowr, but they have been doing it
for over a hundred years, and it is
regarded as one of their most
cherished privileges with which no
member of the faculty would dare
TO interfere. Even when the late
Marquis Of Butte, one Of the most
fervid of Roman Catholics, was in
stalled as rector, the students pro-
claimed their contempt for the Latin
invocation in the customary fash
ion But the marquis did not smile.
There has never been any evidence
that Providence ever objected ether
to the prayer in a cead language or
TO the Interruptions that accompany
its delivery.

meetings of the ruling body of the
university, called the university
court. In former times he had
more numerous duties to fulfill, and
had the right to demand from the
civil authorities that any student
who had committed an ofiense
should be handed over by them &c
be tried in the rector-s court. This
law has never been repealed though
ii has long fallen into allegiance.
Practically all that is now required
of the rector Is that ne should de-
liver an address when he is INSTALL
ed. But he has the right of nomi-
mating an assessor, who becomes a
member of the court. He always
dominates some one suggested by
the students and in that way they
obtain representative in that body
who looks after their interests.
OF late years the rector of st. An
drew's has always been a man pos
sessed at least of national reputa-
ton. Among the distinguished men
who have held the Office may be
mentioned John Stuart Mill, Dean
Stanley, Sir William Stirling Max

Marquis of Dufferin, and Arthur
James Balfour, now prime minister,
Mr.. Carnegie is the only American
citizen on whom such an honor has
been bestowed. A nomination was

thrust pistol in the faces of the lead
ers of twenty-five escaping prisoners

deputy sheriff before he had scaled the
fence.
Selee saw Murphy's suspicious ac-
tions and got a revolver from an office
drawer. Deputy Sheriff Downey was

was the boy with the revolver.

DEFEAT AIMS
OF PRESIDENT
Executives Choice for Chief
Clerk in Bureau of Ameri-
anRepublics Turned Down
OPPOSITION TRIUMPHS
Governing Board Selects
William c. Wells Instead
of a Friend of Roosevelt

WASHINGTON, April 22.-For the
past two weeks the governing board of
the Bureau of American Republics
has been trying to select successor
to William c. Fox as chief clerk, he
having been promoted to be director.
The promotion in his case was at the
instance OF President Roosevelt and
the ratification OF his choice was not
accomplished without some difficulty,
owing to the belief on the part of the
governing board that they alone had
the right to fill the Offices in the
bureau.
When it came to the selection of the
chief clerk this feeling grew much
stronger, as it was learned that the
President again had a choice for this
place in the person of Gordon Cum
mlngs, at present an employe of the
Census Office and prominent figure
In Washington society.
Led by the representatives of Mex
leo and Chile, an organization was ef-
fected which triumphed to-day at a
meeting of the governing board when
William c. Wells of the District of Co.
lumbia was selected, receiving eight
votes as against five votes for Cum
mings.

BRE WER YMEN
ARE At WAR
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TACOMA, Wash, April 22.-S. s..
Loeb, a stockholder of the Pacific
Brewing and Mailing Company of Ia
coma, has begun suit to force the
company to render larger dividends.
He alleges the profits are so great
that the company can easily declare
dividends of 80 per cent annually on
all the capital stock. He also asks
that the company be forced to sell its
capital stock in the Washington
Brewing Company of Everett, the Co
lumbia Brewing Company of Tacoma
and the Puget Sound Mating Com
pany of Tacoma, and that the funds
SO secured be converted into dividends.
Loeb is owner of the Independent
Brewing Company of Seattle and mi
nority stockholder in the Pacific Brew
ing and Mating Company, which is
operated by William Virges and Anton
Ruth. For five years the latter have
been expanding their business and
gradually building a plant costing more
than half a million dollars. They
claim the company's profits have gone
into betterments. Loeb was chief
owner of the Milwaukee Brewing Com
pany. which the Virges Company alb
sorbed several years ago following a
bitter beer war.

The Catholic Paper.

There is little danger of loss of faith
in the homes into which it goes and
is read faithfully, even if these homes
be absolutely isolated from church and
priestly visitation. No one knows this
better than the priest of many and
greatly scattered missions, says the
Church Progress.
But it's influence in the populous
parish of the metropolis is in nowise
different. Here it lightens the labors
of pastors and keeps the people in
closer touch with their many duties.
The late Holy Father of most happy
memory, called it a perpetual mission
in every parish. Hence further proof
that 1t is an excellent aid to the priest.
In the light Of such facts is it not
strange that the Catholic paper re-
ceives such scant endorsement and
such little encouragement from the
altar?

Meet Traoic Death.

The four persons who were found
dead in their home in Chicago from
asphyxiation Sunday were all former
residents of Minneapolis. They were
Harry Monroe, aged % years, his
wife, Annie Monroe, aged 19 years,
their baby, Mary Monroe, aged II
months and Charles, a brother of Har-
ry Monroe, aged 20.
When the Monroe home was broken
into Sunday night by A. E. Whittier.
Monroe's brother-in-law, the bodies
were found in their beds and a gas
jet was turned on full force. The
theory of suicide is secuted and it was
palpably an accident.
1t is supposed that when he retired,
Harry Monroe accidently turned on
the gas in the room occupied by his
wife, the baby and himself. His
brother, who boarded with them, slept
in an adjoining room. The Monroes
occupied the lower floor of the house
at 1866 Canal street, Chicago. The
second floor was occupied by A. E..
Whittier and his family.
Sunday afternoon Mrs. Whittier re-
marked to her husband that she had
not seen the Monroes all day and had
not heard a sound from below. This
led to the investigation which revealed
the dead bodies Of very member of
the little family. Harry Monroe, his
wife and their child were found as
if asleep, but the body of the brother
was found half out Of bed. 1t is
| thought that he awakened but was
overcome by the gas before he could
get on his feet.
Mr.. Monroe's parents live in Chi
cago at present, but he was born here
and grew up in Minneapolis. He and
his family left this city for Chicago
just six weeks ago.
Mrs. Monroe was a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. James McNulty, 600 Twenti-
eth avenue NJ, Minneapolis.
Mr.. and Mrs. Monroe had been mar
ried nearly two years. He leaves a
father, a step-mother, four brothers,
a sister, Mrs. Nellie Mcdonald, of
Duluth, and an uncle, B. F. Cafferty,
of Minneapolis. She leaves a father,
mother, brother and four sisters, Mrs.
Patrick Neeland, Mrs. O. H. Brenner,
Miss Francis McNulty Of Minneapolis,
and Mrs. A. E. Whittier of Chicago.
The funeral of the two brothers was
held in Chicago on Wednesday and
the wife and baby we're brought to
Minneapolis. The funeral of these
two will be held this morning from
the residence of James McNulty, 600
Goth avenue NJ, thence to Ascension
church, where requiem mass will be
offered up for their souls.
