Death of Eminent Canadian Jurist.-
Canada lost one of her great men on
April Ia by the death of Sir Henri
Elzear Taschereau, the representative
of the Dominion upon the Judicial
Committee of the Imperial Privy
Council, and ex-Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court For three hundred
years the Taschereau family have been
prominent in the public life of Canada,
either in politics, law, or the Church.
During all this period the Taschereaus
possessed seignorial rights in Quebec,
and Sir Henri was recognized as the
greatest authority on the seignorial
system in Canada. He was the oldest
Canadian Judge, his first appointment
being made in 1871, when, at the age
of thirty-five, he was appointed to the
Bench of his own Province, Quebec. At
the age of forty-two he was Supreme
Court Judge at Ottawa The late Car
dinal Taschereau was his cousin.

Brotherly Relief Colony at Denver
to Have Catholic services.-For the
benefit of the Catholic members of the
Brotherly Relief Colony of Denver,
Mass will be celebrated twice month
This colony, which has attracted con-
siderable attention, was started by
Frank Craig, struggler against the
white plague, and supported on a
small scale by his income. Later his
property failed in value, and while the
fame of his colony brought him many
candidates, he turned none away, al
though there were times when his own
coat went to cover others less for
tunate than himself. The public be-
came interested in his work, and is
lending him assistance. The Knights
of Columbus of Denver, donated a
large tent and Judge Gavin gave them
another which will be used as chapel
by the Catholic members of the colony.
AS the colony is near st. Anthony
Hospital it may be attended by the
chaplain OF that institution.

Ireland will occupy position as
prominent therein as any of the great
nations of the world.
