Contribute - Movement Among
Catholics General Turnout the Ma

State.
Special TO Timcs-Republican.

Dubuque. Jan. 9.-A1chbishop Keane
has notified his priests thruout the di
ocese that a collection should be taken
up for the earthquake sufferers. The
letter issued on Friday from the arch
iepiscopal residence follows:
Dubuque. la, Jan. 7, 1909. - Dear
bishop directs that a collection be an
nounced on Sunday next. Jan 10, and
taken up on the following Sunday In
all the churches of the archdiocese for
the relief of the suffering people Of
southern Italy. and that the proceeds
be sent without delay to the chancellor.
The following letter of his eXcellency
the apostolic delegate will sufficiently
explain the reason for this appeal,
which, it is hoped, will be responded to
generously:
Washington, d. c., Dec. 81, 1905
Your Lordship: Appalled, by the dread
full calamity which has befallen some
of the southern provinces of Italy. in
the earthquake disaster of the 28th
inst ! am instinctively moved to APP
peal TO your well-known charity, in or
der that the faithful of your diocese
may concur, in some measure, in allev-
iating the misery of the vast multitude
of sufferers.
Tho the extent of this catastrophe
can not as yet be fully estimated, still
from information received up to the
present hour, it is admitted that the
provinces of Messlna and Catania in
Sicily, and Of Reggie in Calabria have
been utterly devastated; and some of
the most fourishing cities and beauti-
full towns have been totally destroyed
with the loss of many thousands of
lives.
"A calamity which has Brought such
desolation, ruin and death upon so
many of our brethren surely deserves
our sympathy and urges US to offer our
help.
Hence, relying on that spirit of
Christian charity which has alwaye
distinguished the American people, I
trust that your lordship will find 1t adj
visable to devise some means, in order
that thru the generosity of your people,
help may be sent to the suffering dis
tricts at the earliest possible date.
The offerings may be sent to our
holy father, either thru this delegation
or directly, addressing yourself to his
eminence, Cardinal Merry del Val, sec
rotary Of state to his holiness, Vatican,
Rome.

FOR CIVIC RETIREMENT.

President Tafts desire to make Wash
ington an ideal city with a model govern
ment and the best possible living condi-
tions was the subject of addresses before

pressed the hope that he would be re-
elected for four years more.
Speaking along the same lines. A. f. l..
Ieckic expressed the belief that this city
is destined to become the most beautiful
city in the world. He urged that as the
capital becomes more picturesque there
should also be movement for ideal con-
ditions spiritually. morally and as to its
form of government. He said the further
evolution of Washington into such ideal
istic condition will not be difficult as this
is one of the most intelligent and Godfear-
ing communities in the world.
Action was taken favoring the reclama-
tion of the Anacostia fats and the erec-
ton here of a great structure to be a sort
of hall of patriotism for the use of the
G. A. r., Confederate Veterans, Spanish
War Veterans, Army and Navy Union
and other similar organizations.
