Edmund II. Skanahnn.

Rev Edmund T. Shanahan, dean of
the faculty of theology of the Catholic
university at Washington and recog-
nized as one of the greatest Catholic
scholars in America, was born in Bos-
ton, Nov. %, 1853, and received his
early education in the parish schools
of that city. From 1888 to 1888 he was
a student at Boston colleges. Later he
pursued his studies in Rome and at the
famous Louvian university in Belgium.
AS the elimination of studies made at
the College of the Propaganda in Rome,
DR.. Shanahan received from Pope Leo
XIII in 1893 the degree of Doctor of
Sacred Theology. In 1897 he was a
lecturer before the American University
Extension society of Philadelphia. Since
1901 he has been dean of the faculty
of theology at the Catholic university
the highest dignity to which a Ro-
man Catholic teacher in America can
aspire. The most celebrated of Dr.
Shanahan's writings is the article en-
titled John Fiske on the Idea of God;
a Criticism of Modern Theism," which
appeared in 1897.

Orchestral Oversight.

The snare drummer happened to
catch a selection that called for the
use of half a dozen or more instru
ments. To make the shift from one to
another he had to hustle in a fashion
that nightly impressed persons sitting
near. When he had finished the lively
operation he was putting and blowing
like tortoise, and the perspiration was
coming out IN streams
man just outside the orchestra rail
leaned forward and pointing to the
score, remarked:
That was good work, old man, but
you missed one place"
Il did, responded the drummer in
surprise. why I thought 1 played
everything that came my way"
NO" the other resumed, you didn't
do everything. and I saw the leader
glance at you. Right there, in the
middle of that measure, is a place
where it says you should have gone
down cellar and shaken the furnace,
and you didn't pay any attention to it."

COMPANY IS ID
Be REORGAN|zED

In three weeks the business of the
Westinghouse company, which may
come to Gary, will be restored to the
company as a result of a meeting in
New York today. The receivers will
be discharged, new officers elected and

art Brown Wilson A Shaw, J. W.
Marsh and others of the most promi-
nent financial men of Pittsburg.
The plan of reorganization as out
lined by an official of the company last
evening will be much the same as the
manner in which the affairs OF the
United States Steel corporation are con-
Quoted. Mr.. Westinghouse will remain
al president but that position will be
similar to the position of president of
the United States Steel corporation. He
will attend the details. and the many
important affairs of production.
All financial matters will be in the
hands of j. w. Marsh. president of the
Standard Underground Cable company.
Mr.. Marsh has, since the appointment
of the receivers, been chairman of the
merchandise creditors committee. In
the reorganization he will be made
chairman of the board of directors and
will occupy the same position that
Judge Gary occupies with the United
States Steel corporation.
This board of directors will be COM
posed of fifteen members and will hold
its first meeting in Pittsburg some time
in December, when the plan as out
lined will be carried out
There was general rejoicing in this
city when the plan was announced as
1t will mean work for 1000 men and
the distribution of an enormous sum of
money each year.

Heart toHeart
Talks.
"JuST JIMMIE,S WIFE. /"
By EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. Nye,

A newspaper sketch shows two chill
dren, girl and boy. They are be-
ing interviewed by a woman. This is
part of the conversation:
'And what do you expect to make
Of yourself, Maud, when you grow
up?'
Maud-Just Jimmie's wife, ma'am.
Which was cute rejoinder--and
more.
Maud may change her mind when
she grows up. Our childish ideals
change sometimes. Certainly when
she is grown up she will be less frank
to say she is going to be Jimmie's
wife, whatever she may feel about it.
But the wisdom of childhood caused
Maud to choose the better part. Be-
cause
II Jimmie proves to be the right sort
and If he is to do his best he must
have good wife. What Jimmie is to
do and be win depend largely on jim
mics wife He will need a Maud to
make man Of him. And, in making
man of Jimmie, Maud will have her
hands and heart quite full.
Mighty important, Gust Jimmie's
wife"
OF course it is hard to predict. When
Maud grows up she may have special
talents for something else, or Jimmie
may not suit her or she him. But,
other things being equal, each will
know when the time comes.
And Maud can aspire to no higher
position than being Jimmie's wife.
If she holds to her girlish choice and
they choose each other no greater
crown OF happiness can come to her
Woman was made for wifehood and
womanhood, and she finds her highest
satisfactions in fulfilling her destiny
The abundance of her being demands
| husband and children upon whom she
| may lavish her love.
She who misses this misses abun
dant life.
And If Maud marries Jimmie, beside:
filling the measure of her own norma
desire, she will have a great chance tt
do for Jimmie.
The gentle influence, subtle, bu
strong, of woman, working by ant
through the man she loves, is the pow
er that moves the world. More thar
that, it is the power that SAVES the
world
For, mind you
Always and everywhere, when you
find good man or a great man, al
ways you will find A GOOD WOMAN
| BEHIND THE MAN.
Blessings on the Mauds who fins
their content and joy in being '.Jus
