Bishop is Not Dead. The reported
death of Msgr Gomez Pimento, Bishop
of Mariana, Brazil, and the only Ne
gro member of the Catholic Hierarchy.
is not true.
The above item is taken from the
last issue of The New World, edited
by the Rev. Father Judge and the or
gan of Archbishop Quigley, head of
the great Archdiocese, of Chicago.
From this it appears that the great
Catholic Church can make a Niger"
Bishop when it finds one with the
qualities of head and heart which fit
him for the exalted office. And it
does not make him a Bishop for the
''Niggers" only as Colored Bishops
are made by several of the Protestant
churches in our free land. Bishop
Pimento is the head of a whole do
cese, black and white. In the person
of the late Father Tolton we had in
this city an example of the willingness
of the Catholic Church to ordain into
its priesthood a worthy Niger" Fa,
Their Tolton was born in slavery and
when his brave mother ran to the
North, Just before the close of the war
of the rebellion, a reward was offered
for the little band of "Niggers" wheth
er captured dead or alive" Mrs
Tolton was pious Catholic and when
travelling through the marshes and
woods to freedom promised God &c
give her boy to the church if the party
reached the north safely. The church
authorities sent her black boy to Rome
where he was educated and treated
with every kindness. He returned t.

were guillOtined. and only a few OF

and so save their lives. But the flight
cost a lot OF money, and they were
obliged to part with many fine jewels,
among them the necklace In question.
From the time that they got rid OF
this article they enjoyed good fortune.
This cherished jewel, after chang
ing hands about ten times, was bought
by the st. Petersburg jeweler Butt forI
10000 rubles $50, 900 for Prince VI
who was at that time a leading man
at court. The prince. who was a great
lover Of the ballet, gave the necklace
to the we'll known ballerina Tzukki.
For having done this he was exiled
