FRANKFORT.
Father nArranges Ser
vices For Easter
- Sunday.

In accordance with the custom
that has prevailed at Frankfort for
several years past, the choir of the
Church of the God Shepherd will
render a special musical programme
at the high mass and vespers on
Easter Sunday, April Z. The
Church of the Good Shepherd choir
Is conceded to be the best in the
Covington diocese, and under the di-
rection of Mrs. Clara Chew, the
organist, has been practicing new
music for several weeks, which will
be sung on Easter Sunday Solemn
high mass will be celebrated at 10
o'clock by Father Joseph A. Flynn,
the rector, and solemn vespers will
be sung at 1880 in the evening.
1t is said upon good authority that
one of the most prominent young
members of Frankfort Council, X. Of
c., will embark upon the sea Of
matrimony shortly after Easter,
when he will lead to the altar one
of Kentucky's fairest daughters, who
resides in a city not many miles
from Frankfort. Two and possibly
three other marriages will also occur
within the next few weeks among
Frankfort's most popular younger
set, and it seems that the little god
Cupid has been extremely busy dur
Ing the season of prayer and fasting
which comes TO a close Sunday, when
the joyous Easter bells will proclaim
the close OF the Lenten season.

ion /, and one Of the most widely
known Hibernians in the entire
South, had the unusual and extreme
pleasure of receiving his two sons,

grand old Irish Catholic order that
now numbers over 100000 in the
United States. After the obligation
had been taken there was a recess,
during which the proud father and
sons received congratulations from
all sides. owing to the fact that 1t
was Holy Week there was marked
falling off in the attendance. Daniel
Mccarthy was called to the Vice
Presidents chair and one candidate
was elected to membership. Several
will be reported at the next meeting,
which shows a gratifying increase
since the beginning of the year.
William M. Higgins was called upon
and briefly outlined the plans of the
Catholic Federation for the great
gathering here this year. County
President Dolan reported the pro-
ceedings of the County Board, which
will give its annual reunion and pic
mic at Phoenix Hill in June. He
also suggested that the Hibernians
be represented by a float in the
federation parade and favored the
formation of a Juvenile division.
Under the good and welfare of the
order James Barry, Thomas Keenan,,
Anthony Tompkins and others were
called upon and responded with
words OF advice and encouragement
that were appreciated

Guiding he invited the memebrs to

GOT Rid OF THE BAKER.
The Persians Took Shuster's Remark
In Deadly Earnest.

In his book. The Strangling Of Per
sia," w. Morgan Shuster, the American
who took such prominent part in Per
sian affairs a few months ago, tells
this: in connection with the bread
supply a rather grewsome incident oc-
Cured. The chief baker of Teheran
was one Of the principal grafters in
the municipal bread ring and a great
trouble maker for the treasury. He
was a man of evil record and reputed
to have baked an offending subordinate
to death In his own oven on more than
one occasion. Speaking OF him and his
intrigues one day to several prominent
nationalists, / remarked that he was
the cause OF most Of the trouble with
the bread supply In the capital, was
feeding inferior bread to the people
and that he should be gotten rid Of
"a morning or so afterward. on en-
tering my Office rather late. was In.
formed by one Of my Persian assistants
that the chief baker had been killed
in accordance with my wishesr leave
the reader TO imagine my surprise and
feelings. AS matter Of fact, he had
been assassinated, and though ! have
no reason to believe that my own re-
marks had anything to do with his
taking off. determined thenceforth to
be more cautious and precise in my
language
THE unfortunate man was muir
derer and had waxed wealthy by steal
ing from the poOT. often starving peo-
pie OF the city. so no great injustice
was perhaps done, but the interpreta-
ton put by my young Persian friend
on his untimely end gave me quite a
shock. From that time on the control
Of the bread became much easier"
