New York, May 3.-Rarely if ever in

enue, when 10000 Catholic laymen

in review before the archbishop of New
York ard his guest of honor, the Irish
prelate, Cardinal Logue of Armagh
1t was a climax to a series of reJoic-
ings over century of organized Ro-

sands of persons saw the parade from
the sidewalks. windows and roofs OF
houses and other points of vantage.
Archbishop Farley received letter
Saturday from President Roosevelt
congratulating him on the success OF
the celebration.
Cardinal Logue made this statement
to a group of newspaper men, when
the last company of the Catholic host
had passed the reviewing stand in
front of St Patrick's cathedral.
II never saw such an impressive
gathering in all my life, and | never
expect to witness such a demonstra-
ton of loyalty to the Catholic faith. /

such body of men, and it must in

HOLLAND BULB TRADE IMMENSE.
Over 10000 Acres Devoted to Raising
Tulips and Hyacinths.

An industry characteristic of the
Netherlands is the raising of tulip
and hyacinth bulbs. Attempts have
been made in several parts of the
world to grow these, but Nowhere can
the experiment be said to have been
successful, as the proper kind of soil
for propagation Of perfect bulbs seems
only to exist in the small space of ter
ritory between the cities Of Leyden
and HARLEM.
This stretch of country is in reality
the bottom of the old Haariem sea,
which was laid dry about the year
1852, and this sea-bottom dirt, a COM
bination Of sand and decomposed vege-
tables and plants, appears to be the
only soil capable of producing the
flower bulbs mentioned.
These bulbs are exported to all parts
Of the world; the demand is constantly
increasing, and an increased area is
from rear to year set apart to the cul-
tivation Of bulbs. The statistics for
1906, the latest available, give this
area as 4,O5S hectares, equal to 10,027
acres.

aroused by the sound of slamming
doors and new voices. He returned to
his chair and waited for the denoue-
ment, which the marrow in his bones
told him was about to approach.
1t seemed incredible that he, OF all
persons, should be plucked out of the
practical ways of men and thrust into
the unreal fantasies of A
hubbub in a restaurant, a headlong
dash into a carriage compartment, a
long ride with a princess, and all with

weird dream. And how the deuce

He gazed at the toys again.
And then the door opened and he
was told to come out. The grand duke
had arrived.
This will be the final roundup" he
laughed quietly, his thought whimsical

spoke rather grimly, for all his smile.
The door slammed, there was a
grinding of the key in the lock, and
Max was alone.
The library at D%oppelkinn was all
the name implied. The cases were low
and ran around the room, and were
filled with romance, history, biography
and even poetry. The great circular
reading table was Uttered with new
books, periodicals and illustrated week
lies. Once Doppelkinn had been threat
ened with a literary turn of mind, but
a bad vintage coming along at the

cure.

The duke was furious. He looked
around for something to strike, and
nothing but the table being convenient,
he smashed a leaf and sent a vase clat-
tering to the floor. He was stronger
than the prince, otherwise there
wouldn't have been a table to thwack.

TAXPAYER FEELS HIS DIGNITY.

Make Better Citizen.

MANY a time" said a policeman in
the southern part Of the city, when
arrestIng men, especially intoxicated
men, / have been told by my prisoner
that he was a taxpayer and that he
helped pay my wages.
II always regarded this sort of back
talk as merely drunken ~insolence, and
never paid much attention to 1t until
about a year ago, when l bought a
house and lot and became myself a
taxpayer. | had always rented be-
fore and never gave a thought to
taxes, but as soon as l moved into my
own house l began to appreciate the
feelings of the men who resented ar
rest because they paid taxes. There
is certainly a considerable addition to
the dignity of the nan who helps sup
port the government. He feels a de-
gree Of responsibility that a renter or
roomer never understands, and my
idea is that every man in the country
ought to become a taxpayer as soon
as he can, and the mere fact that he
does help to support the government
and bears his share of the expense,
makes him a better citizen. Habitu-
al criminals, excepting, of course, high
i1nanciers, are rarely taxpayers. They
know they may have to run any day
and perhaps never come back, so
they do not buy real estate, but are
roomers and dodgers all their lives
