John d. Rockefellers offer to con-
tribute 1900 to complete the fund
necessary for the purchase of the
Pasteur birthplace, in the town Of
Dole, was very pleasantly received by
the French press. At the same time
some newspapers took occasion to
point out that the wealthy foreigner is
occupying a larger and larger place
in French life, and expressed the hope
that Frenchmen would continue as in
the past to contribute generously to
public works.
The Pasteur committee at Dole, in
accepting, sent to Mr.. Rockefeller a
letter couched in terms of great ap-
probation and gratitude. 1t conclud-
ed: "The town of Dole. moved by
a deep sentiment of appreciation, will
honor itself by perpetuating in some
way your name and your kindness"

NEWS FROM PARIS.
~%%%%%~%~~~~~~~@ I

Paris, Feb. 17.-President Armand
Fallieres has now entered the last
year of his seven-year term of office.
On January II, 1918, the French SEN
ate and Chamber of Deputies will
convene in solemn session at Versail-
les to elect his successor.
Although the election date is dis
tant, the discussion of the question of
the next chief executive of France is
being taken up animatedly. 1t seems
generally accepted that President Fal-
Heres has no wish to succeed himself.
He is represented as being well salts
fled with his long term in office,
which, if it has brought him sue
cession of the highest honors leads
repose from the oftentimes arduous
duties. He will retire, it is stated, to
southern France, where he is the
proprietor of large area Of vine
yards.
Many names are brought forward
in discussion as possible successors to
Mr.. Fallieres. The most familiar is
that of Leon Bourgeois, whose dis
tinguished parliamentary record and
long public service for his country
must have suggested him as worthy
candidate. However, Mr.. Bourgeois
has entered the new Poincare cabinet
and should he decide to remain there
it might influence his candidacy for
the presidency. Another much talked
of candidate is Antonin Dubost, the
president of the French Senate. Many
believe that the presidency is a ma
tural step from the leadership Of the
Senate. Other names talked of are
President Brisson, Of the Chamber Of
Deputies, and Paul Doumer. one Of
the younger Frenchmen, who has
made strong name for himself in
French national life.
There is. of course, always the
chance for the dark horse" The
next President of the Republic may
be man who is. little known now in
the political world.
The concluding year of President
Fallieres' term will be filled with i'm
portant engagements. At Belfort he
will unveil the monument to be erect
ed to commemorate the three seiges,
and he will also be present at the
fetes to be given in the frontier regi-
on. A tour of several weeks in Alger-
ia is also being arranged.
At Paris the President will receive
the King and Queen of England on
their official visit and will probably
undertake a return visit to London
towards the close of the year. Queen
Wilhemina and the Prince Consort OF
the Netherlands are also awaited in
Paris this year. Finally, there is an.
other visit calculated to be of politi-
cal and picturesque nature. Moulay
Hafid, the Sultan of Morocco, which
has recently been made protectorate
of France, will be the guest of the Re
public in the month of July, and will
be present at the great military re-
view at Longchamps on July IA.

The packing-case manufacturers Of
Paris have petitioned the government
to take some steps to stop the grow
ing practice by French exporters of
importing packing cases from the Uni
ted States.
The American customs not only i'm
poses duty on goods. but also on the
crates in which they are packed. II
was to avoid paying this that French
exporters conceived the idea of order
ing cases from America. which on re-
turn to the United States were admit
ted free as re-imported matter. This
policy has assumed such proportions

Willing masculine hands prevented
fire disaster a short time ago in the
little town of LIE Puy, where was sit
uated the convent of the Clarist Sis
ters, one of the most vigorously closed
orders in France. Despite the asso-
Citations law. which dissolved the or
ganization, few aged nuns were
permitted to remain at their old
home. The aged sisters. rather than
break their rule which expressly for
bids that man should set foot with
in their walls, would have allowed
themselves to die a horrible death
rather than summon masculine help.
When the fire broke out in the con-
vent the sisters fought it desperately !;
then, not wishing to solicit mascu-
line assistance, took refuge in the
dormitory. the door Of which they bar
ricated. The fire made rapid head
way, and in few minutes their re-
fuge would have inevitably burned
unless a policeman, aided by courage
Gus townspeople, had broken down
the door, removed the baricade and
carried the aged nuns, already par
TALLY asphxiated, to place of safety.

WORST IN THE WORLD
Says Cardinal Gibbons Of Prevalence
of Divorce in L. g.

Cardinal Gibbons who has been Wis.,
itins his brother in New Orleans was
asked while In that city to give his
views on the divorce question in the
United States. His answer was that
our country is the worst offender in
the world in this regard.
II favor q national divorce law, a
law that would put some limit upon
this great scandal" he declared.
Tho Cardinal declined to enter upon
a lengthy discussion in regard to the
correct attitude Of the Catholic clergy
towards politics.
Generally speaking, I should say 9
priest should not be a PARTISAN" he
said. "He should vote for such candi-
dates as he believes will pass the
right laws and who are known to be
the enemies OF political corruption

tured from it to countenancc ba parity
or debasement at home, or subjection,
humiliation or treachery from abroad.
1 would not have submitted to a for
eign oppressor, for the same reason
that I would resist the foreign and
domestic oppressor. In the dignity Of
freedom I would have fought upon the
threshold of my country. and it's en-
emies should enter only by passing
over my lifeless corpse. And am I,
who lived but for my country, and who
have subjected myself to the dangers
Of the jealous and watchful oppressor,
and the bondage of the grave, only to
give my countrymen their rights, and
my country her independence, am
to be loaded with calumny and not
suffered to resent it? No, God for
bid!"
At this point Emmet was inter-
rupted by the judge who told him
that his words would disgrace his
family. Emnet replied to the taunt
eloquently, ending with these well
known words: II have hut one re-
quest to ask on my departure from
this world, it is-the charity of it's
silence. Let no man write my epi-
taph; for as no man who knows my
motives dare now vindicase them, let
not prejudice or ignorance asperse
them. Let them and me rest in OBJ
scurity and peace; and my tomb re-
main uninscribed and my memory in
oblivion until other times and other
men can do justice to my character.
When my country takes her place
among the nations of the earth, then
and not till then, let my epitaph be
written. I have DONE"
The epitaph is still unwritten in
stone but it is craven deep in the
hearts Of his countrymen who today,
after the lapse of over a century, are
more enthusiastic than ever in the
song of his praise. Long live the
spirit of the ill-fated Emmet!

OVER 100 YEARS OLD
The Sisters Of Loretto Will Celebrate
Anniversary April rs.

The Sisters of Loretto will celebrate
the one hundredth anniversary of the
founding of their order, April 25. The
celebration will be marked by church
ceremonies suitable to the occasion.
The order was founded by Father
Nyrnx in 1872, near Bardstown, Ky.
The place of the founding has since
received the name Of the order. Fifty
years ago a number Of the Sisterhood
went west on the old Sante Fe Trail
and founded a branch of the Order
at Santa Fe. Two Of their number
died of cholera on boat or the way
from st. Louis. Their graves can be
seen in the Catholic cemetery at Inde-
pendence, Mo. Many hardships, among
them being an attack by Indians, were
encountered before the small band
reached Santa Fe. After the attack
by the savages it was discovered that
one Of the Sisters had died Of fright.
