on this section Of the line has fallen
off, however, TO the extent that tho
dispatching is again being handled at
Grafton for the entire division, and

ARCHBISHOP BUYS RESIDENCE
KEANE OF DUBUQUE
PURCHASES THE STOUT PROP
ERTY FOR AN EPISCOPAL
RESIDENCE.

The Most Reverend James J. Keane,
D. D., Archbishop of Dubuque, has Sc
cured the home of the late F. D.
Stout, Eleventh and Locust Streets,
Dubuque, for residence. The pur-
chase price is not known, but it is
upwards of twenty-five thousand
dollars. The house is built of red
sandstone and equipped with all mod
ern conveniences. No expense was
spared in the interior furnishings,
which are of mahogany and rosewood
with great onyx columns supporting
the double doors between the rooms
The residence is reported to have
cost a quarter of a million dollars
when it was erected some years ago
by it's millionaire owner. During the
past few years several fraternal organ
izations, among them the Knights OF
Columbus, thought of buying the prop
erty for club rooms, but the interior
arrangement did not lend themselves
readily to the requirements of such a
building and SO the project was aban-
doned.

APOSTOLIC ADM |N|sTRAT TOR
APPOINTED FOR THE DIOCESE OF
CHARLOTTETOWN.
Very Rev. James Morrison, .. D., v. c.,
Pastor of Vernon River, and For
merIy Rector of the Cathedral,
Selected by the Apostolic
Delegate.

Owing to the illness of the Right
Reverend James Charles Mcdonald, d.
d., Bishop of Charlottetown, Prince
Edward Island, which has prevented
him from attending to the administra-
tive work of the Diocese during the
past two years, it has been deemed
advisable by the Holy See to appoint
an Apostolic Administrator in the per-
son of the Very Reverend James Nor
rison, D. D., Vicar General of the Dio-
cese, and pastor of the parish of Yer
non River. Official notification of his
appointment has been received by DR..
Morrison from the Most Reverend
Archbishop Stagni,. Apostolic Delegate
to Canada and Newfoundland. In this
letter the Apostolic Delegate states
that the Holy See, having been in
formed of Bishop McDonald's physical
and mental condition by Cardinal De
Lai, Secretary of the Sacred Consis-
torial Congregation, committed to him,
by letters bearing date of October 16,
the power and the duty of naming a
proper ecclesiastical person who for
the time being will rule the Diocese
of Charlottetown as Apostolic Admin
istrator." His Excellency confers this
honor upon DR.. Morrison, together
with "all the rights, faculties and
privileges, which other Apostolic Ad-
ministrators, by right of legitimate
custom, now enjoy, commanding all
and everyone both clergy and people
of the aforesaid Diocese that they re
ceive you as their Ordinary, giving you
obedience and reverence, until other.
wise provided for by the Holy See.''
DR.. Morrison made his philosophical
and theological studies at the Propa.
ganda, Rome, and was ordained for the
Diocese of Charlottetown. After briei
residence at st. Dunstan's College as
professor and Rector, he was made
pastor of st. Dunstan's Cathedral
Charlottetown, and under his direction
the new Cathedral was completed. Iu
1907 he was placed in charge of the
Church of st. Joachim, Vernon River
where he has since resided.

FOR THE FOUNDING OF A CHAIR
OF HOLY SCRIPTURE At THE
CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.
j. J. Ryan of Philadelphia, Presents
Cardinal Gibbons with Fifty Thou
sand Dollars in Currency for Chair
TO Be Named For Self and Wife.

One day last week, Mr.. J. J. Ryan,
retired contractor and capitalist of
Philadelphia, accompanied by Mon,
signor M. M. Hassett of Harrisburg,
called at the residence of Cardinal
Gibbons and presented His Eminence
with fifty one thousand dollar bills for
the founding of chair of Old Tesla
ment studies at the Catholic Univer-
sity, Washington. His Eminence had
no intimation of the intended visit and
was much surprised and gratified when
this munifcent gift was placed in his
hands for SO worthy a purpose.
The chair will be known as the
James J. and Hannah Cusick Ryan
Chair of the Old Testament The gift
was made primarily in memory of Mr.
Ryan's wife who died recently in Phila-
delphia
Cardinal Gibbons will transmit the

a professor will be named for the new
chair of Scripture studies. This foun-
dation will be of great value to the

greater facilities than heretofore for
the study of that important subject.

LEAGUE OF CATHOLIC WOMEN
Catholic Women of Minneapolis Or
ganize for Social Work.

Last week about two hundred of the
leading Catholic women of Minneapolis
met at Donaldson's Tea Rooms and
formed League of Catholic Women.
This organization will have for it's OBJ
ject to look after the working girls
and to help the deserving poor OF
Minneapolis. They propose to teach
factory girls who are earning small
wages how to become Independent and
self-supporting. A free employment
bureau was suggested and home
where these girls could secure board
at nominal price and be surrounded
by salutary influences. Mrs. M. J.
McFadden, President of the Guild OF
Catholic Women of ST. Paul, outlined
the work of her society. Mrs. c.
Dranger, Vice President of the Guild,
who has charge of the Juvenile Court
work in st. Paul, was also present
and described the work which has
been accomplished in her department
The meeting was presided over by
Mrs. William Moorehead and three
committees were appointed on consti
tuition, on organization, and on nomin
alton. The work which these Catholic
women propose to do ought to appeal
to all who are interested i'm social
problems and large membership and
much interest should be the natural
result.

N EW ITALIAN CHU re H.
THE MOST REVEREND ARCH
BISHOP OFFICIATED AT THE
DEDICATION OF ST. AM
BROSE CHURCH.
The First of Two Churches to Be
Provided for the italian People of
St. PauI-In Charge of Father
Balducci.

The new Church of ST. Ambrose on
Bradley Street, the first of the two
churches to be opened for the bene-
fit of the Italian people of this city,
was formally dedicated last Sunday.
The services began at half-past ten
o'clock, when the Most Reverend Arch
bishop blessed the edifice and dedi-
Gated it to its sacred purpose The
Solemn High Mass was celebrated by
the pastor, Rev. R. Balducci, assisted
by Rev. James Donahue as Deacon,
and Rev. r. Gullo as Subdeacon. Very
Rev. Dr. Schaefer, Rector of st. Paul
Seminary, was master of ceremonies.
After the Gospel Father Balducci
preached a sermon in Italian; and at
the conclusion of the Mass the Most
Reverend Archbishop complimented
the Italians on the beautiful church
which had been set apart for their
use and urged them to be faithful in
attendance at Mass and in performing
their duties as Catholics. He reminded
them of the glories of Italy, the fidelity
of her children to the Church, and ex-
horted them to be loyal to the tradi-
tions of their race.
There was large attendance at the
services and many were the express
sions of appreciation for the beautiful
church provided for the Italians who
live in the vicinity of Bradley Street
The church formerly belonged to the
Methodists and was purchased by Fa.
ther Balducci some months ago. A
sanctuary was added, gallery for the
choir, and beautiful altar, together
with the pews and other necessary
furnishing. 1t is expected that before
many years another church will be
erected in the vicinity of Seven Cor.
ners for the Italians who live in that
district, and who now worship in the
Chapel of the Holy Redeemer in the
basement of the old Cathedral.

The Lantern of the Dead.
All Souls Day, which is for all of
us so poignant festival, and which is
surrounded by so many comforting
and tender observances in Catholic
countries, impresses non-Catholics in
a wonderful manner. While in Paris
the great cemetery of Pere la Chaise
is decked with lights and blossoms,
and even in cold Protestant England
the faithful flock to hear a Requiem
Mass in every parish church, in a little
mountain churchyard in Switzerland a
beautiful old custom connected with
medieval times was revived for the
day at Maurice, Cantal. Here there
still stands one of those great stone
columns short in length but broad and
strong in proportions upon which
rested the Lantern of the Dead, a
square stone chamber within which
glowed a red light that fell upon the
Calvary and reminded wayfarers to
pray for the repose of the souls of
those inferred in the quiet Gods acre
they were passing. On All Souls
night this lantern was again lighted.
1t was from this custom there came
the mortuary fires so common in the
thirteenth century and which shed
brighter glow than the small red
lanterns. They were also lighted on
columns in the cemeteries, and some
of these short thick pillars with their
followed capitals still stand, though
the fires are never built upon them
now.
