Mems Summer Suits.

The lighter a mans suft is the more care he should exercise in buying it. it's nothing but a gamble unless a man is an expert judge of clothing or knows his clothier and trusts him Under the name of outing suits. all sorts Of trash is put on the market thin fabrics coaxed into shape by pres- sing only to lose almost all semblance to a mans clothing after being worn a month. Thin clothes demand the most skilled handling in making. they demand good materials. and proper staying all through to make them re- tain their shape. Unless they are made just right. they cannot give satisfac- tory service. no matter how much you pay for them. The point about Meigs & Co.'S lightweight Summer Suits is that they are made right. of the best materials. and they will keep their sty- fish appearance right through the sea- son. and until worn out. These are the kind of Summer clothes you want and you are sure of getting them at Meigs & Co.'S. See the splendid range of colors and styles they are showing at popular prices.

BISHOP CARROLL TOBE RECTOR
Believed He VIII Succeed Bishop
0'Connell at University.
Thought that Dubuque PreIate May
Be Eventually Chosen Coad-
JutOr of Baltimore.

The name OF Right Rev. John P Car
roll. Bishop Of Helena, Mont. has been
constantly mentioned OF late as successor
70 Right Rev. Bishop d. J. O'Connell.
ard announcement has been frequently
made TO the effect that Bishop Carroll
has been appointed rector Of the Catholic
University OF America, notwithstanding
the fact that no pspal brief has been re-
ceived al the Catholic University confirm
ing such appointment nor any communi-
cation forwarded from Rome to His Emf
nence Cardinal Gibbons. so far as WAS
known ar late hour last night. that
would substantiate the announcement
There is. howevef. every reason TO be-
Heve that Bishop Carroll win be the next
rector OF the Catholic University IN the
event that he IS willing 20 accept th~
Office. anu his eminent fitness for the e.
allied post, together with the fact that he
is known 70 be the cardinals choice, has
given 10 the rumor the assurance OF fact
Bishop Carrolrs administrative ability
alone pre-eminently fits him for the post.
Another rlImor Is to the effect that
Bishop Carroll viii be cOadiutOr bishop
Of Baltimore: that If ne accepts the rec
torship Of the Catholic University he Will
only remain there for one term, familiar
izing hImse44 with the work of the arch
diocese While there he would be one OF
the su1ragan bishops OF the cardinal
with whom. as president OF the board OF
directors Of that institution, he would be
thrown IN close contact
The work OF this archdiocese Is con-
ceded 70 be more important than that OF
