CATHOLIC PRESS ASSOCIATION
Second Annual Convention Will Take
Place at Louisville, KY, August
Is and II.

At the first annual convention of
the editors and publishers of the
Catholic papers in the United States
and Canada held in Columbus, Ohio,
last year, permanent organization
was effected and Board of Directors
elected. During the year the Catholic
Press Association was incorporated
and now has membership of forty
five Catholic papers distributed
throughout the country. The second
convention will be held at Louisville,
KY, on August Is and II, two days
prior to the convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Catholic Societies.
During the past year very little in
terest was shown in the work of the

hoped that at the coming convention
something will be done to arouse en-
thusiasm. At the first meeting three
bureaus were appointed and placed in
charge of news, literature and adver-
tising, and these will report through
their secretaries at the coming con-
vention. The board of management
assures those who attend the conven-
ton that it will have much of interest
to report. Membership in the organi-
zation is open to all Catholic publica-
tions whether daily, weekly, monthly,
semi-monthly, or annually.
The Board of Directors consits of
Edward ]. Cooney, President; W. A.

One of the most impressive cere-
monies ever witnessed in Crookston,
Mimi, took place on Sunday afternoon,
June 16, when the cornerstone of the
new Cathedral of the Immaculate Con-
ception was laid by the Right Rever-
end Timothy Corbett, Bishop of that
See. Bishop Corbett was assisted by

cracy Join the Church.

The reception into the Catholic
Church has recently taken place of
Lady Margaret Orr-Ewing, widow of
the late Captain Orr-Ewing (Who fell

the Duke of Roxburgh is head, have as
rule been staunch Protestants. Lady
Margaret is only one of the several
recent converts belonging to noble
Scotch houses. Another is Lady Hen
rietta Turner, sister of the Earl of
Galloway, who became Catholic with
her daughter, few months ago. A
daughter of the Earl of Lindsey, Lady

COLLEGE FOR TEACHING SISTERS
Will Be Erected at the Catholic Uni
versity-Sisterhood to Build Resi-
dences in Vicinity-Funds Contri-
buted-Second Session of Summer
School for Sisters.

According to the Catholic Univer-
sity Bulletin, the Board of Trustees
of the University at their recent meet
ing, ratified the purchase of property
for the Sisters College and took the
necessary steps to realize the project
at the earliest possible date.
Several Sisterhoods have already Sc
lected sites for their future homes on
the grounds assigned for the commun-
ity residences. They are having plans
and specifications drawn up and it is
hoped that they will begin building
operations in very short time. In
fact, they are only waiting for per-
mission to break ground. This, how
ever, cannot be given until there is
suffi funds on hand to have the
grounds prepared, the drainage taken
care of and a heating conduit built
from the University power house.
Moreover, one of the academic build
ings, at least, will be necessary in
order to give room for the lectures
and laboratory work. These various
items will entail an outlay of about
100000.
A few friends of Catholic education
already contributed or pledged $14,-
225, and it is believed that the re-
mainder of the sum will not be long
withheld from so worthy cause.
The Sisters College will unity the
Catholic school system of the United
States; it's benefcent effects will be
felt in every parochial school as well
as in the academies and colleges con-
Quoted by our teaching Sisterhoods.
The second summer session of the
Sisters College will be held from July
1 to August 10. 1t has been organ
lied for the purpose of giving Catho-
lie teachers an opportunity to profit
by the facilities offered by the Uni
versity and to obtain, under Catholic
auspices, whatever may be helpful to
them in their work. The courses in
clude both the professional subjects
which are of vital Importance to
every teacher and the academic sub
jects which are found in the usual
school curriculum. Each subject is
treated with view both to content
and method, and the aim throughout
is to base educational theory and
practice on Catholic principles.
The high character of the work
done by the students at the summer
session last year and the indications
pointing to a large increase in the
number of students who will attend
the coming session have made it seem
advisable to widen the scope of the
work. The courses given last year,
with few exceptions, will be repeated
and new courses will be organized
to continue the work from the point
reached in the courses of last summer.
At the close Of the summer session
an eight-day spiritual retreat will be
conducted by the Very Reverend Pas
chal Robinson, o. F. M.

CATHOLIC CIVILIZATION
Mr.. Barrett Praises the Work of the
Catholic Church in America.

At the banquet which followed the
unveiling of the Columbus Memorial
in Washington, on June 8, Mr.. John
Barrett, Director of the Pan-American
Union, in the course of an address
said, according to the staff CORE
spondent of America" that there
were universities in South America
one hundred years prior to Harvard
or Yale. He would add there was a
Bible in the Aztec language before
the Mayfower struck Plymouth Rock.
To Anglo-Saxon civilization a good
Indian was an Indian dead; the
Spanish, the Catholic civilization, held
the lowest aborigine to be child of
God, and worthy of the consideration
of a child of God. The padres
traversed this land from Florida to
California on foot in search for souls;
but now men coming from the East
in Pullman car complain of the in
convenience The padres traversed
without a murmur Death Valley,
where a United States survey party
gave up in despair. This day gives
men to think, to study, to honor a
vilifed nation and to inscribe Prescott,
and the other New England bigots who
maligned the Catholic Spaniard, in the
Ananias Club of history. The founders
of American civilization believed in a
God and in making the aborigines be-
lieve in Him; and unless our citizens
so believe, the Constitution is sound
ing brass and tinkling cymbals, and
has no solid rest in humanity. Ala
bama and Massachusetts meeting here
in the same spirit prove the race of
bigots is dead, and we have survived
them. We can now do our fighting.
The flag was in our midst today, and
we needed no inspiration from the
sidewalk to revere it. Let us enlarge
the meaning of that flag by extending
Catholic civilization"

A Walled Lake

From the New York Press.
 One Of the curiosties of the west is the Walled Lake" something over hun. dred miles west of Dubuque, Ia. This lake is from two to three feet higher than the earth's surface. In some places the wall is ten feet high, 10 feet wide at the bottom and five feet on top. A remark able circumstance with reference to this odd lake Is the size of the stones used in the construction, inasmuch as the whole of them varies in weight from three tons to 100 pounds. There is aboundance of stones in Wright county, but surrounding the lake to the extent of five or ten miles there are none.
 No one has any idea as to the means employed to bring these stones to the spot. or as to who constructed this lake. Around the entire lake is belt of wood land half a mile in length composed of oak with this exception the country is a rolling prairie The trees must have been planted there at the time of the building of the wall. In the spring of the year 1856 there was a great storm. and the ice on the lake broke the wall in several places. The farmers in the vicinity were obliged to repair the damage to prevent inundation. The lake occupies ground surface of 2S00 acres. The depth of the water is as great as 9 feet. The water IS clear and cold; the soil is sandy and loamy It is a singular fact that no one has been able to ascertain where the wa- ter comes from nor where it goes; yet it is always fresh and clear

Reindeer in Alaska

From the CnrlSllAn t1eTdlu
 It is only a few years since the Un- ited States government. as an eXperi- ment which it was hoped would help the Eskimos and Indians of northern Alaska, imported few score of rein deer from Norway with number Of I.apps skilled in their care. Subsequent ly other reindeer were brought from the opposite coast of Asia, and although it was known that the particular form of moss or lichen on which these ani- mals live, and which flourishes under the snow, was abundant within the American Arctic circle, the attempt to introduce reindeer was regarded by a majority of our citizens as being quite as wild and visionary as was the pur- chase of Alaska by Secretary Seward In 1867.
 The few score reindeer have grown to 27325, distributed in AZ herds. More than one-half, or 14,993, are owned by natives who before the advent of the reindeer, were in a state of the most wretched poverty. Of the remainder 3730 are owned by the United States, 4l94 by missions and 4407 by Lapps. The total income of the Esquimos from the reindeer industry during the year last reported was s24,636.09. It promises we'll for the conscience of the nation that we have come at length to recog- nize kinship with our little brown brother whom, heretofore, we have left to be despoiled by the trader
