ishop Rice's First Official Act.


The Ri. Rev. J. J. Rice, bishop of
the Burlington Catholic diocese, per-
formed Thursday his first official act
since his assumption of control of the
diocese of Burlington, when he received
four novices and granted the religious
habit to two postulants. Both cere-
monies took place in the little chapel
of Mt. ST. Mary's Academy. In the
evening reception was given in Bishop
Rice's honor by the students of the
academy. The ceremonies of the
morning were most impressive and
significant, as they marked the prog
ress of six young women toward their
ultimate goal, life's devotion to labor
and poverty as Sisters Of Mercy. All
were graduates of the academy and
will devote their labors to this diocese.

Hyde Park Citizens Courageous.

At large and enthusiastic meeting
of the representative citizens of Hyde
Park, called for the purpose of ex-
changing views as to the future of
that village, all agreed that the time
for action was now and that the burnt
district should be rebuilt and that along
modern and up-to-date lines. The water
question was the most important topic
and it was agreed that that should
receive first consideration and as a re-
suit village meeting has been warned
for Tuesday evening, May 3, to take
action in that direction. The question
of employing an architect and land
scape gardener to advise and suggest
as to the best way of rebuilding and
laying out the village was considered
and in order to get at this systematical-
| ly village improvement society was
started. This organization starts with
1000 shares at SIS each, the money to
be used for the employing of skilled
artizans in the direction referred to
and also other ways and means along
that line. In short time $50 shares
were taken.

Doesn't Know Her Ace.

There is glaring phase of unfair
ness in the position of the two sexes,
despite all our struggles for the suf-
frage. A woman still breads to tell
her age, no matter how youthful she
may look. while as long as a man
looks youthful he is generally willing
to admit and even to boast of how
many milestones he has passed. There
is at least one father who understood
this problem in time and who gave
his daughter a fair chance in life by
never letting her know how old she
was. He realized at her birth that a
time would come when she would not
want to tell her age, and he spared her
the humiliation of having to prevari-
cate. so she was never told either her
age or the place where she was born.
and there were no birth records pre-
served in the family.-New York

WANTED A JOB.

A certain playwright relates how
persistent applications for a "job"
made by peculiarly seedy individual.
Time and again the manager had re-
ferred this person to his stage man.
ager. "See Blank" he would say, in
terrupting the mans attempts to set
forth his qualifications.
At last the applicant did succeed in
gaining audience of Blank, the stage
manager, who was in the theater for
the time "sizing up candidates for the
chorus.
There were, Of course, a number
ahead of him, but this fact did not
prevent the seedy man from interrupt
ing the stage manager between songs
with requests for job.
Exasperated, the stage manager at
length turned to the pianist and or
dered him to play an accompaniment
for the stranger. With considerable
hesitation the seedy person raised
what voice he had in song. The result
was bad as bad could be.
The manager suddenly commanded
him to desist.
"What do you mean by this tomfool-
ery?o he demanded, disguised. "You
certainly have COMPOUNDED impudence
to ask me for job!"
