Anti-tubercuIosis League Will
Fight "Great White
Plague.
CAMPAIGN TO BE OUTLINED.

The Anti-Tuberculosis league has
not died a victim to the disease it has
been waging a war against. 1t has
simply been lying dormant during the
summer and within a few weeks will
renew its efforts to oppose the great
white plague Announcement has
been made the executive committee
will meet soon to arrange for the win
ter's program. A campaign against
the disease such as was conducted last
year, will be instituted. A public
meeting will be held and officers
elected. 1t is probable that at this
meeting papers will be read by local
physicians treating of the subject of
tuberculosis and outlining a plan for
the crusade.
In its work last year the organiza-
ton accomplished a great deal of good.
The public was invited to all meetings
and by lectures and the use of the ster-
eopticon, the public was made &C
quainted with the nature of the dread
disease. 1t was shown, also. the best
plans for safeguard and to combat in
cipient attacks. 1t has been suggest
ed that this season special phases of
the subject be taken up and given
thorough discussion.

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE first Ameri-
can Catholic Missionary congress,
pronounced by it's members as destin-
ed to open a new epoch in the pro-
gress of the church, convened for a
four days session here Sunday, in the
presence of prelates, clergymen and
laymen from many parts of the Unit
ed States and Canada.
Pope Plus X. is represented by
Most Reverend Diomede Falconio,

tons.
The program, which is TO be conclu-
ded next Wednesday night, includes
exercises which are to be participated
in by representatives from almost ev-
cry city in the country. The Catholic
Church Extension society. which has
called the congress, has set forth its
1urpose as follows:
To mark the change of the church
in North America from missionary
conditions to its full share in the work
of the Universal church; to crystal
lie the missionary sentiment now be-
ing awakened in the Catholic clergy;
to study missionary conditions, espec-
tally of America and the Colonies of
the United States and plan for their
Improvement.
Preceded by a solemn procession of
prelates from the Catholic college, sol
emn pontifical mass Sunday morning
was held at Holy Name Cathedral, the
ceIebrant being Archbishop Falconio.
He was assisted by the Most Rever-
end James II. Blenk, Archbishop of
New Orleans.
Today regular sessions of the con-
gress opened in the First Regime mt

by Archbishop Quigley and state Off
Gals. Addresses also are to be made

ada Sessions this afternoon are to
be followed in the evening by gen.
eral reception.
On Tuesday three sessions are to
be held.
The meeting of the board of gov,
| errors of the extension society will

slider the action of the congress. AT

ing A few years years ago in the
race against the Hon. James z. Wat
son, Mr.. Kuhn received 20,629 votes
against his opponents 22,135. At that
time it was said by Mr.. Watson's po-
litical enemies in the republican party,
that this was owing almost entirely to
the record and personality of Mr.. Wat
son himself. Now, that sounded very
we'll at that time, and there was moth
ing to disprove it, although there
were many of Mr.. Watson's friends
who had the feeling that the result
was on account of the ability of MT
Kuhn and was not entirely due to the
shortcomings df there were any of
Watson. 1t is interesting to compare
that race with the latest one.
In the returns from this district in
the last election. Barnard received
1893, while Kuhn got 26,OG5. This
makes difference of only s2S votes
between the two candidates.
1t shows number of things and
one of them in particular is, that the
personal campaign of Kuhn and his
personality was pleasing to the popu-
lar fancy 1t was a personal battle
and Mr.. Kuhn accomplished more in
this district than any of his fellows
did in the state. 1t was d good race
and a clean one.

A GOOD RACE,

In all the campaign. the most inter-
esting single race in this state was the
one made by the Rev. Thomas Kuhn.
Altogether, considering the odds under
which he ran, and the questions invol-
we'd, it was almost spectacular. 1t
was a contrast to the race made by the
genus of .,lame ducks" of both parties
all over the country. Consider for a
minute the republicanism of the "old
burnt" district. For years it has
been as impregnable as the celebrated
rock Of Gibraltar. Consider also that
Mr.. Kuhn is not politician in the Or
binary acceptance of the term. Con-
slider again that he is in the democrat
ic party. almost alone in his lack Of
backing from that willy and gentleman
ly politician of politicians, Mr.. T. Tag
CART. Consider that almost without
exception, any votes that Kuhn got in
this district were personal yotes-then
YOU will see that it really was race
in which there were unusual points of
interest.
A few figures are rather enlighten-
