Boy Converted on Death Bed.

On Wednesday of this week was laid
at rest a sterling Christian, who,
though but II years old, on his DEATH
bed became a Catholic. The lad. John
White, a pupil at st. Vincents acad-
envy was stricken suddenly i'll last
week at the academy. He grew SO sick
that Dr. Hagerty ordered him removed
10 the City hospital Before he Went.
though. his long pelt-up desire to be-
come a Catholic became very evident,
and he insisted upon being baptized n
Catholic. It seems that the lad had
intended for quite some time 10 become
a convert. The sisters in charge of tie
academy wrote his mother. explaining
the boys desire. The motjler, Mrs.
George B. Ellis of 229 West Forty
fifth street. Manhattan, to satisfy the
lad, granted his request. He had set
March ! as the date, but when he knew
that his condition was serious he asked
that the Sacrament of Baptism as well
as the last rites of the church be ad-
ministered to him. He was happy after
that and met death like a saint, pure
white soul destined for heaven.

rather upon the need and advantages
NJ these holy exercises.
The spiritual renewals are epochs of
veighty moment to the faithful of ev-
erv congregation. For no matter how
carefully and diligently the flock may
he tended and looked after, there will
always be some sheep who, for one
reason or another, wander far afield
, and out from the true fold, at least in
rractice. At the time of a mission Our
blessed Lord not unfrequentiy brings
them back rejoicing and there is no
little JOY at their return.
Then, too, there ever will be Prodi-
gals anxious to return to the home of
their father They have strayed far
away and have found a famine in the

These are eager to return. But they

often be given them during the blessed

We must also ever bear in mind that
the devil is cunning and labors untir-
ngly. He never sleeps or rests. Temp
tatons, too, are many and daily. HUI
man nature ever gravitates to what is
low, agreeable to inclination, and sin
full. In the wear and tear of life, and
in its hourly rush and struggle, our
higher and lasting interests suffer. The
dust of the world blinds us. the desire
for pleasure strengthens within US, the
greed for gold enslaves, ambition dis
forts our vision, and little by little we
lower our standard, shift our princi-
pies. and become like a ship drifting
away from her mornings out to sea,
without rudder. The mission comes
with its special lights and helps, the
dust falls from our eyes. our will
strengthens and our faith and practice
revive. Again we lift aloft our stan
dard and bear it bravely on.

much for strangers. for whom they do
not care straw, while for their very

they are doing; they little know the

Word Curiosities.

Mark Twain has something to say
about English as She Is Written but
here is some English that seldom is
written, and some other interesting GU
riosities of Mother English.
Observation-Disclosures is rath-
err long word. You cannot find it in the
dictionary. but ou will find it used III
Shakespeare and some of the otner early
English writer's The word is meaning
less; the only interesting point about it
is it's length. Twenty-seven letters in
a breath is quite a few. But our die
tionary gives some almost as long; for
instance, the following two, of twenty
four letters each:
Observation-Disclosures.
inanthropomoTphisability.I
Here are some of the other/boa con-
strictors:
Twentythree letters:
disproportiona bleness.
Twenty-Five:
ntercommunicabilities
Twenty-one:
interconvertibilities

shistomorphologica
Neutrality-suspicious..
supersensitiveness.
hypersensitivenesS.
1t is safe to say that the ordinary
reader would not run onto one of these
in hundred years-and if he did he
would run the other way
1t is interesting to know that the en-
tire alphabet can be arranged in one in
telligible sentence without the repeti-
ton of single letter. Just twenty-six
letters in the following sentence, and
no two alike:
-. Q. Vandz struck my big fox
whelp.'
That simple sentence is the hardest
possible one to write on the typewriter;
so many of the letters in the alphabet
are used so seldom that even a good
typist has to study out the combina-
ton before finding some of them. This
sentence is the only known one that
contains every letter in the alphabet but
once and makes sense

K1rrREpaE AN HONEST MAN
A Tribute to Senator Kittredgei
Ability, Worth and Honesty by ..
. Former Well Known Populist $3.50

The continued Misrepresentation OF
the attitude of Senator A. b. Kittredge e.
by the Sioux Falls Press, the subsized
organ of the state administration, does
not seem to be meeting with the sue
cess that was hoped for by the insurgent
leaders.
DR.. T. M. Stewart, of Beresford, I'm
ion County, an old-time populist witt
served in the state senate with Mr.
Kittredge in 1891, feels constrained to
offer a public rebuke to this method
Of political warfare. Senator Stewart
writing to the Sioux Falls Argus-Lead
er of March 81, charaeterizes these at
tacks as contemplate, and after show
ing that Senator Kittredge's record
has been repeatedly wrongfully assured
by the newspaper organs of insurgency
DR.. Stewart concludes with this fine
tribute to the manhood and worth OF
the senator:
Now as to my personal knowledge
Of Senator Kittredge he is honest
truthful, and a man Of great ability,
His wsrd is as good as his bond. and
whenever I had a measure that he
could consistently as g republican sup
port, and promised that he would do SO.
I never had to put him in mind Of it
the second time. The promised help
was always Forthcoming.
He has recently told me that he
considers himself, while a senator Of
the United States from South Dakota,
a servant Of the people Of his state,
and as such he will labor to enact any
law that he is satisfied that the'majority
of the people of the state he repres-
epts desire, and from my previous at
fliation and knowledge Of the mar and
his integrity, I know that he will do
so, sven though he was in opposition
to me in party complexion. I believe
in him just as firmly as / would a.
though he were of the same political
opinion in all respects.
Now, as there is no peoples party
organization to my knowledge in the
state Of South Dakota, I desire to put
myself on record in support Of ar
honest man to succeed himself in of
fee, upon the splendid record which
he has made, and of which the state
Of South Dakota ought to feel proud,
and I shall do all I can. honestly AM
honorably, to further the interests of
the people by his election.

only predatory of a little story told me.
by an eye witness, Of q scene at Bis
mark, just after the vote in the bill re-
enacting the gross earnings Law. Con-
fined strictly to it's language, the recital
is very commonplace, but with Aikens
thrown in as a factor, it becomes in
teresting; in fact its whole force is con-
fined to one little word, Hget,' with all
the whitening meaning that only Frank
Aikens could put into it. Frank was
boiling over, which meant anything
from fluent profanity to an earthquake;
with indignation and ~contemptuous cyni-
cism, as he came face to face with Craw-
ford. The r%ecreant Hfriend of the peo-
ple'' fell into a half covering, half
pleading attitude-in fact he was a
living efigy of what the little girl
street arab-saw while peering into the
window of a Doctors back room. A
skeleton was standing in q corner, sus-
pended by a wire which had been
stretched 3 little too long to take the
Kinks out OF It's legs, back and neck.
Its face had fallen forward, it's knees
had twisted inward, its arms and hands
with their long bony fingers hung limp
and helpless to the front, with a piece of
canvass hanging like an apron from
ito neck nearly to the floor. The girl
seemed to be mush amused, and when
her companion asked what she saw
she said: cts A TELLER THAT
