A Pioneer of Early DAYS.

Besides being one of the earliest set
tiers of Minneapolis. coming here when
Nicollet and Hennepin avenues were
barren wastes, the life of Mrs. NJ. G..
Nolan. who is alive and well at the
age of SO years, has many interesting
characteristics. says last Sundays Tri-
bune.
She has thirty-seven living children,
grand children and great grand chill
dren. Her son. M. G. Nolan, now a res
ident of Washington, D. c., worked as
printer on the first paper published
in Minneapolis. She and her husband
lived In small house located on the
site now occupied by the Church of the
Immaculate Conception. Her Oldest son
was engaged in defense of Mankato
during the Indian massacre and he wit
messed the hanging Of the Indians Mrs.
Nolan was born in the town of Cloyne,
County of Cork. Ireland, October 10,
1919. She spent her girlhood days
there and was married when quite
young. Her husband preceded her to
this country. She followed with her
five children in the year 1856. For a
short time they lived in the east, but
located at old ST. Anthony in the early
f1fties. Later they went ont to the town
Of Corcoran, Hennepin county, where
they located on a farm of 100 acres.
Mrs. Nolan speaks of her early days
with interest and her narratives of pi-
oneer life in this vicinity are truly
graphic. One interesting story is told
of her husband who walked all the
way to Forest City, then the location
Of the land office, to file on the land in
Corcoran town. The experiences Incl
dent thereto were full of excitement
and adventure. Mrs. Nolan lived on the
farm in the town Of Corcoran until
about twenty years ago when she
moved back to this city. She has since
made her home with her daughter, Mrs.
Thomas Flanagan, S1o7 Washington
avenue north. Mr.. Nolan died in 1872.
Mrs Nolan claims distinction from the
fact that she was born on the same day
as the late Queen Victoria. She loves to
refer to this fact, and jokingly sayi
| that 1T certainly was great honor. The
first day that she and her husband
come over to Minneapolis proper there
was but two stores and bakery shop,
picture that she recalls with clear
ness. Her son. Nicholas Nolan, still re-
sides on the old homestead in the town

HoNoRs TO FIR. HARRINGTON.
Popular Pastor Of Ascension Parish
Home From Europe.

Home From Europe.
Rev. jeremiah Harrington, who re-
turned home last week from Ireland
received an emphatic welcome from his
loving parishioners, the men, women
and children of Ascension church, Fri
day evening, the goth inst. At large
ly attended meeting in the parish hail.
presided over by John Meagher Father
Harrington was presented with a purse
of over $500. The presentation address
by James McConville was an eloquent
tribute of love and admiration, and
was true expression of the feeling
entertained by all present. Father
James O'Reilly also spoke of the high
regard in which Father Harrington
was held by all, and said that no priest
was more beloved than he. After the
short opening address of the chairman
some choice musical numbers were
rendered by the Misses Gleason and
Pomerleau and John Meagher, Jr., the
latter singing Home, Sweet Home
which brought from Father Harring-
ton some feeling remarks in which he
took occasion to thank from the depths
of his heart those good and generous
men and women of the parish who, he
said, had already gone beyond the limit
of human kindness on many occasions
He mentioned in particular the Holy
Name Society and the women of the
parish who. during his absence, had re-
modelled and refurnished the parish
house at a cost of many hundreds of
dollars. Father Harrington spoke ten
derby of his aged parents in the old
land. and said that the serious illness
of his father now 80 years of age. was
the cause of his journey across the
Atlantic. He was pleased, however
on leaving, that bot1 father and mother
were in good health and We're able to
attend mass and receive the Sacrament
of Holy Communion from his hands.
Father Noonan, the jealous assistant
pastor in Father aarrington's absence
was also kindly remembered before
leaving for Seattle. for which place he
departed on THURSDAY evening the goth
He had planned to go quietly to his
new field of labor. but his plans mis-
carried. The Holy Name Society," act
ing through its president, j. B. Fer
moyle, presented him an elegant gold
headed cane to take with him to the
far west Father Noonan has been in
Ascension parish for the past two years

had become greatly endeared to the
people.

VIEWS OF OTHERS.
A Good Word for the Charter.

tQltOr OF Inc Irish standard:
The readers of the Irish Standard
are. I am sure. properly interested in
the special election to be held on the
18th Of this month for the purpose of
voting on the proposed new city char
ter. AS a member Of the special COM
mittee organized Cor the purpose of
focusing intelligent attention on this
charter question. I beg leave to enlist
the interest of the patrons of the Irish
Standard in this important matter.
First of all, it might be interesting
for everybody to remember that fifteen
representative men from all political
parties, and various business interests,
were selected by the district judges of
Hennepin county. to prepare this char
ter These fifteen gentlemen. seven of
whom are members of the legal pro-
fession. have recommended this char
ter, without dissenting opinion, to the
people of Minneapolis. The members
of the bar understand the necessary
legal requirements of a city charter.
The business men of experience I'M
derstand the commercial needs Of the
city.
The essential advantage in having
this charter adopted at the special
election on the 18th instant, is that
this charter will give to the people of
Minneapolis Home Rule. This means
that in future the people themselves,
the voters of the city. can amend their
own charter, can take the initiative in
presenting amendments. and can man.
age their own city affairs without ask
ing the consent of the state legislature.
Under present conditions. the charter
cannot be amended without an act of
the legislature, and such an act cannot
be secured without the cooperation of
the cities of st. Paul and Duluth. as
all special legislation is prohibited by
law. Those interested in securing spe-
cial legislation for the city, without the
consent of the people of the city, will
oppose the new charter. All those in
terested in regulating their own busi-
ness, by the people of the city, will
vote for the new charter Special in
terests. interests that do not always
have the welfare Of the city at heart.
will attempt to create prejudice against
the new charter. The general welfare
Of the city will be promoted by secur~
ing the adoption of this charter. Good
citizens work for the general welfore.
not for special interests. No doubt a
better charter than this could be
framed. Its most ardent friends do not
consider it an ideal charter But it is
vast Improvement. a great stem for
ward, and it will give to this city Home
Rule. Vote Eyes" on September the
18th.
