TRINITY COUNCIL
Is NJ Making Steady Progress
and Gaining In
Members.

Trinity Council, Y NJ. l., has been
making steady progress since the first
of the year. At a largely attended
meeting Monday night President John
Hennessy announced that fifteen can
didates were now awaiting initiation.
III this rate of increase is continued
the membership will soon pass the
400 mark. The work of preparing
for the opera that will be given this
spring is far advanced, and those who
have witnessed the rehearsals predict
that the production will be one of the
most finished and artistic ever seen in
Louisville. Both cast and chorus are
taking lively interest and are now
almost prepared for the performance.
The financial reports were gratifying,
and give evidence of the wisdom dis
played in putting young and energetic
men at the head of this splendid Cath
ollie organization.

CONVERT LEAGUE
Holds Good Meeting Hears
Reports and Elects
officer.

The annual meeting OF the local
Catholic Convert League was held
last Sunday evening at the Knights
of Columbus Hall. Despite the in
clemency of the weather more than a
hudred people attended. The Rev.
Benedict Hanley, G. p, addressed the
league on Socialism and Catholicism.
He emphasized the dangers OF this
quasi-political party and showed that
its teachings rather than being of a
political nature were subversive OF
all order, religion and government;
that they were opposed not only to
the teachings of the Catholic church,
but also to every other type Of Chris
tianity or Protestant belief, and like
wise the civil law of the country.
After the officers made their re-
ports for the past year the following
were duly elected to fill office for this
year: President, Judge Matt. O'Doh-
erty: Vice Presidents, J. J. Caffrey,
p. II. Callahan, Thomas A. Walsh,
John Doyle, DR.. p. s. Cans; Spiritual
Directors, Rev. C. p. Raffo and Rev.
Benedict Hanley; Treasurer, F. A.
Geher; Secretary, DR.. B. j. o'Con-
nor.
As the league is endeavoring to
make arrangements with some Cath
Ollie paper or magazine devoted to the
propagation of the faith to serve as
the official paper of the league and
to he sent to all the members, it is
the request of the officers that the
members of the league who are in ar
rears for dues kindly settle with the
Secretary as soon as possible. The
league not only hopes to double its
membership this year but also to ex-
tend it's activities. Any recommends
tions or suggestions for any specific
on f>general work that can be accom-
plished by the league will be well
coined by the officers.

MACKIN COUNCIL
Invites Public to Hear
Father ftanIey's
Lecture.

At the meeting of Mackin Council
last Monday night arrangements were
made for a free lecture at the club
house ON Sunday night, February IL,
by the Rev. Father Benedict Hanley,
G. p, to which the members and their
friends are invited. Father Hanley,
who is one OF the most forceful and
eloquent missionaries of the Passion
list order, will speak on Socialism and
Catholicism" a subject that is now
receiving the attention of the worlds
greatest men.
Though quite an amount of busi-
ness was transacted 1t was mostly
routine, the most important relating to
the opera to be produced this spring,
rehearsals for which will soon begin.
President Adams announced that the
big initiation would take place Just
before Lent, when there will be an
other reunion and social meeting Of
all the members.

school Board Members Should
Be Chosen From Each
District.
Why Was Name of the James
Banquet TOastmaster
withheld?
PROMOTERS SHOWED WISDOM

In spite of the many protests
against Representative John Hol-
lands so-called ripper bill doing
away with the local Board of Edu-
cation, there is one section that ap-
peals to every fair-minded citizen.
That is the one which would have a
board of seven members elected from
the respective school districts and not
as in the present easel the five mem
bers comprising the Board of Edu-
cation all living in the Eastern part
of the city, naturally that section be-
ing therefore bound to- be the benefi-
ciary as the members are more famil-
lar with its needs and wants. Under
the new suggestion OF electing one
from each school district, the MEM
ber would be obliged and held re-
sponsible for the wants of his con-
stituents.
Someone certainly slipped over a
Joker on Adam SPAIN, the repre-
sentative from the Second and
Third wards, when he was induced
to introduce a bill in the Legislature
making 1t fine of from s. to $50
for anyone giving away a street car
transfer. Maybe Adam doesn't know
that 40 per cent. of the people who
secure transfers never use them on
account of the failure to make con-
nections in reasonable time and
prefer to walk unless they are going
quite a distance. Even the officials
of the street car company must have
tet-east--is- hieaTry- zseH : ssr II -
read Mr. Spahns bill.
Speaking of iokers, one was eer-
tainly slipped over on many OF those
who attended the Ollie James ban
quet at Frankfort when at the last
minute, so to speak announcement
was made that Dan Z. O'Sullivan
would act as toastmaster, and this
after the Louisville Democrats had
already gone to Frankfort Not a
line appeared in the local papers in
regard to this until the evening of
the banquet when the Evening Post,
whom O'Sullivan writes for at times,
hurriedly ran his picture. Were the
promoters of the banquet afraid of an
appreciable decrease in the attend
ance if the fact were known that
O'Sullivan was chosen as toastmas-
ter? On top of this the Louisville
papers, with one exception, never
made any reference to the banquet
next day, which certainly must BIT
very fiattering to the speakers and
promoters.
Every now and then the Evening
Post comes forward with an outburst
of criticism for the Louisville police
department, comparing. its members
unfavorably with the Grinstead po-
lice, and Immediately after each out
burst the Posts former model Off
Ger, ex-Capt. Robert j. Foster, kills
the effect of the article by getting
mixed up in some brawl or slugging
some innocent citizen. The Post
should cage Foster for day or so
two after each article.

Will Undertake Conversion. OF
Opponents of National
Movement.
Better Housing and Rural En-
livenment Part of Pro-
gramme.
BELFAST WOMAN THE LEADER

From Dublin comes news that
among the newer associations aiming
at the development of a new Ireland
with brighter conditions and better
administration, none is more active
than the United Irishwomen. This is
the women's side of the great nation
al movement that is animating the
nation to-day. The title recalls some
what sad memories of the revolution
airy days of Emmett, Tone and Lord
Edward Fitzgerald, when Irish wo-
men did not hesitate to shoulder a
pike and march to the hillsides in
defense of their fatherland. The new
movement is of a tanner character,
although it's organizers make no Sc
cret of their determination to repeat
the actions of their sisters of the
"Ninety7eight" period should Eng
lang refuse to remove the grievance
for which Ireland clamors.
The immediate object of the 'Unit-
ed Irishwomen" is, however, to get
together a substantial volume of opin-
ion that will be representative of the
whole of the leading women of Ire
land, independent of creed or class,
with a view in focusing attention on
the need for better housing accom-
modation and the frightening of ru-
raj life.
Although these United Irishwomen
have not yet had time to make much
stir in the country, there are indica-
tions that the movement will become
quite as popular as the Ladies' Land
League, which had in it's day the
guiding influence of Charles Stewart
Parnell's sister, who died only re-
Gently. It is significant that, like the
United Irishmen, this new women's
movement had its origin in Ulster,
and has already in its ranks a large

means and influence, who have never
before taken any activt part in the
political life of the country. This is
regarded as the most encouraging
feature of the organization, because
1t is felt that many of these women
will have a far-reaching influence on
their masculine neighbors who have
been uncompromisingly hos
tile TO anything in the shape of
home rule Parliament in Dublin.
The Secretary and chief organizer
of the United Irishwomen is MISS
Edith Crawford, a Belfast woman.
who has been for a number of years
engaged in improving the so
cial and intellectual side of young
Irish women in the northern capital
She is understood to have enlisted
the cooperation of American women
like the Duchess of Manchester, the
Countess OF Donoughmore and Lady
Barrymore, though of course no one
expects to see these women carrying
a pike or shouldering a blunderbuss
should home rule fail to materialize.
A branch of the United Irishwomen
has been established in Connemara,
perhaps out of regard for the SYM
pathetic support of the Duchess of
while other branches are
in process of formation throughout
the other three provinces. Dancing
parties are part of the means by
which the organizers of the move
ment hope to convert young men
from any inclination to oppose home
rule.
