Italian Catholics Of Duluth recently
completed negotiations for the pur-
chase of the Catholic church at Elev-
enth avenue west and Superior street,
formerly occupied by the congregation
of st. Jean de Baptste and known
generally as the French Catholic
church. This is the first italian church
society of any denomination in Mime
sofa and is known as st. Peters Ital-
ian Catholic church. The following Of
ficers have been elected temporarily:
President, j. Risatti; vice president, P.
Mainelli secretary, J. Di Marco; treas
urer, B. Summers; directors, V. P.
Mainelli, G. Benda, NJ. Perfetto, G.
Mainelli, G. Berun and A. Furni. The
| incorporators of the church are Bish-
op James McGolrick, Mgr. Buh, Rev.
Father Hartman, Joseph Di Marco
and B. Summers. The consideration
of the purchase was $4,000, to COM
plete which subscriptions are now be-
ing taken up and the work is meeting
with good success. The building is
| about fifteen years old, but has been
thoroughly renovated and partly re-
built, so that it is in good condition
and will make fine place for the
services of this initial Italian congre-
CATION. About 12O Italian families live
to grow and become one of the strong
in Duluth and it is believed that the
congregation of the new church will
continue to grow and become one Of
! the strongest Cathode organizations in
the city. Rtv. Father Hartman will
have temporary charge.

Thomas Dillon, the new member of
| the board Of public works, is one of
Duluth's Oldest citizens. He has re-
sided here for IS years, and his ap-
pointment gives general satisfaction.
He is by profession a stationary engi-
neer, and his knowledge along these
lines should be Of great assistance to
him in the work on the board. The
oversight of the rock crushing plant,
and other city machinery will doubt
less be placed in his charge by the 9TH
| er members of the board in the divi-
sion Of duties. Mr.. Dillon, needless to
say, is of Irish birth and good Demo-
crat. He is a resident of the Third
ward, SO that the new board will have
a member from each of the Third.
