DEDICATED A NEW ALTAR
Catholic Church at MapIeton Has
Very Handsome Furnishings.

A new altar was installed in the
Catholic church at MapletOn on We'd
nesday. The new altar is of Roman
esque style, stands to a height of six
teen feet and is Of white enamel
with gold trimmings and imitation
onyx columns. 1t is Il most beautiful
piece OF workmanship and has to he
seen TO be appreciated. One of the
magnificent features of the altar is a
representation of the Lords supper
with raised figures, while on pedes-
tails on each side stand characters Of
adOring angels. The chancel rail is also
of white enamel with gold trimmings
and imitation onyx columns. The
center gate is double and on each
side are emblems of the lamb and
pelican
Those who attended the services
Wednesday morning and evening
must have been agreeably surprised
To find during the few short hours
OF the afternoon that the old altar
which has been in service since the
construction of the first Catholic
church in the village thirty-four years
ago, had given way to the new and
beautiful piece of furniture in time
for the evening service. The old
altar which has been used for all
these years was manufactured by
John Klein & Co. of Mankato and at
that time was considered fine piece
OF workmanship and it was certainly
well made. 1t has answered its pur-
pose and even now is not to be rele-
gated to oblivion but will be placed
in the new chapel which is being
finished off in the basement of the
church.
Father CullitOn is Justly proud of
the improvements which are being
made at the church and this altar is
certainly more in keeping with the
magnificent new building than the
old one which graced the church
erected in 1876. The altar was manu-
featured at Dubuque, Iowa, and cost
about 5000. ~

TAWNEY FOR THE CANAL ZONE.
Movement to Make Him Governor
Started in House.

Washington, December 19.--Rep-
resentative James A. Tawney of
Minnesota may be the next COVER
nor OF the isthmian canal zone. A
nOn-partisan movement in the house
OF representatives is under way to
urge upon the president the APP
pointment of Mr.. Tawney TO a posi-
ton, where, in the words of Repre-
sentative Burleson of Texas, the
senior democratic member of the
house appropriations committee, "he
may continue his invaluable SER
vices TO the government"
Mr.. Burleson and other democrats
believe Tawney could do great
work. and be of immense assistance
to Colonel Cocktails, the chief en-
gineer of the canal. as governor of
the canal zone. This position is
now held by Morris N. Thatcher of
Kentucky. Those behind the non
partisan movement say that Mr..
Thatcher could be given something
else.
In an Interview today Mr.. Burle-
son, who is a regular democrat, an
nounced that Mr.. Tawney would
have his Endorsement for the gov
crnorship OF thecanal zone or any
other position within the gift of the
president.
ut was a calamity when Mr.. Taw-
noy was defeated for denomination,
said Mr.. Burleson. ct was not so
much calamity to his district, or
to his state, as to the whole coun-
try. ] venture TO say that, although
Mr.. Tawney has always been parti-
san, the general appreciation OF
his services is such among members
OF the house, republicans and demo
Gratis, that could his denomination
be accomplished by that body, he
would be returned for life by unani-
nous consent"
