Dr. Andrews letter to Secretary Mac
Veagh reads:
Dear Mr.. Secretary: am to-day ten
dering to the President my resignation
as Assistant Secretary Of me Treasury.
AS you are well aware. I have for some
time had this intention in mind.
Your disposition, methods, and point
Of view are such as to render impossi-
bic any real cooperation or any salts
factory transaction OF the government
business. During the two years In
which I have been privileged to occupy
this position, I have scores of times been
refused access to you when 1t was neces-
sary to present to you in person matters
of urgent importance for the department,
and Tor periods covering months at a
time you have persistentIy refused either
TO speak with me or TO answer letters
or memoranda asking for an opinion or
decision.
Unfortunately for the work Of the de-
partment this attitude has not been con-
fined to your relations with me. From
time to time, and without any apparent
reason, you have shown the same dis
position toward other officers Of the
Treasury.
Il have endeavored to give to my work
my best ability, and TO you, under all
circumstances, my personal loyalty. On
many occasions when heads Of Treasury
bureaus have been on the verge OF ap-
pealing to the President, or Of resign
ing their positions, through dishearten-
msnt because OF months OF delay and in
decision on your part, have done what
l could to defend you and to encourage
them. You cannot forget how I stood
by you when you were on the point Of
having taken from your hands what was
probably the most important undertake
ing Of your administration. When tn.
White House, in December. 1910, WITHOUT
consulting with you, and entirely with
out your knowledge, entered into negotia-
lions for an issue OF Panama bonds, the
embarrassment Of the situation threatens
ed to force your resignation. You will
remember that did everything in my
power TO avert your humiliation and
that loyalty agreed 70 resign and leave
the service with you II your resignation
became necessary.

ST. LOUIS CA led RAL
Interior Completed at Cost of $780,.
0oo-Interior Finish to Be In Keep.
ing With Exterior-Work Paid For

Archbishop G1ennon of st. Louis in a
sermon preached lately in the Cathe-
dral Chapel, said the outside work on
the cathedral had been finished at a
cost of $1,200,O0O. The inside is un-
finished and the members of the con-
gregation were urged to d3 what they
could toward assisting financially.
1--WE are not in debt one dollar on
all the work we have so far done" +"
said the Archbishop, "and we do not
expect to go in debt. It took 600
years to build the great cathedral of
Cologne, but we hope to finish ours
in a shorter period. However, we
will not assume any Indebtedness,
even if the completion of the inside
is delayed Thirty-six pillars are to
be put up, and each of these will cost
about $1,000, finished after the plans
the architects have designed. It
would be noble thing for some of
our people to become pillars of the
church in this sense as well as in the
broader.
"a high altar remains to be do
mated by someone, and hardly know
what this will cost. It should be in
keeping with the edifice. Two ornate
windows, that will cost about $1,000
each, should be given by someone who
would like to have the sunlight of
Gods grace shine through them, light
ing up the great cathedral for this
and future generations"
The Archbishop expressed the hope
to be able to have the interior of the
cathedral far enough completed to
hold services early next year.
"Work on the building is progress
ing nicely" he said, "and we believe
we have every reason to feel fully
satisfied. The contracts for the heat
ing and lighting, as well as for the
laying of the floor. have been let and
installation work will be started
within short time"

SUICIDE STATISTICS
Fewer Suicides i'm Catholic Than in
Protestant ountries-Ireiand Note
worthy in This Regard.

For Catholics there is no need to
study official statictics in order to as
certain the relative rate of the terri
BILE crime of self-murder in countries
where their religion is that of the
majority of the people as compared
with those in which it is not. The
scarcity of suicide in Ireland has long
been matter Of general knowledge,
just as has it's prevalence in Germany
and England. Der Alte CLAUDE has
just published authentic figures ON
the subject. In Saxony an overWhelm-
ingly Protestant kingdom, there were
on ten years average $50 suicides
for each million inhabitants; I'm
France 226; Austria, 1853; Italy, So;
Spain, Is. The figures per year per
million inhabitants were as follows:
Catholic States, So; States of mixed
religion, So; Protestant States, 190.
The German Review, having examined
the returns from Switzerland, both as
to language and religion, shows: in
the French-speahng Catholic cantons,
1877; in French-speaking Protestant
cantons, 352; in German-speaking
Protestant cantons, 307. IN Catholic
Bavaria the suicides average 80 per
million inhabitants; in Protestant
States: Prussia, 1873; Duchy or
Baden, 1856; Wurtemburg, 152; Saxony,
300. Since the decline OF religious
observance In France suicides rose
from 2,752 in 1910 to 1886 in 1906.

SISTERS CENTENAR
Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, KY,
Observe One Hundredth Anniver-
sary of Their Foundine-Growth of
the Order.

Last week the Sisters of Charity
whose Motherhouse is at Nazareth,
Kentucky, celebrated the one hun
dredth anniversary of their founda-
tion. The community was established
in Kentucky in 1872, few months
after the Sisters of Loretto came into
existence. The Order was founded
by Father David, who later on became
Coadjutor Bishop of Bardstown. The
first home of the community was at
st. Thomas Seminary, the Episcopal
residence of Bishop Flaget, a few
miles south of Bardstown
Father David gave them their rule,
and the first Superioress of the COM
munity was Mother Catherine Spald-
ing, who at the time of her selection
was only nineteen years of age. Their
first convent of hewed logs was called
Nazareth, and from this they derived
their name, Sisters of Nazareth. They
opened school for girls which grad
ua1ly developed into an educational
system that at the present time has
us 1uSIIIuIlOuS Ill Hduy ulOCcSco
throughout the United States. At
present there are eight hundred and
twenty-three professed Sisters in the
Order. They conduct sixteen acade-
mics, fifty-one parochial schools, five
orphanages, four hospitals and three
homes. Last year they taught four
teen thousand four hundred and ten
pupils.

DESTRUCTION OF M|sSALs
100000 Were Destroyed BY the Re
formers.

In an article on the exhibition of
prints of the Thames, now open in
the Guildhan Library, London, the
Post notes that amongst the manu-
script treasures of the library is a
missa1 of the fifteenth century which
was used in the Church of ST. Bot
olph, Aldersgate. This missal, which
is one of those fortunately saved from
the Fire of London, is described as
being a wonderful example OF the il
luminator's art But bigotry seems to
have been more destructive agent
than fire, for the writer goes on to
state that 1T is conjectured that at
the Reformation something like 300,-
900 missals were destroyed This es-
innate is higher than that generally
given, and it would be interesting to
know the writer's authority for it, If
it could be sustained, it would afford
further evidence that at the Reforma-
tion it was the Mass that mattered.

CEN TURY-O OLD FOUNT 7
Holy Water Fount Uncovered by
Workmen i'm Los Angeles Church.

A holywater fount, built by the
Franciscan fathers in 1914, when Los
Angeles, Cal, was sleepy pueblo of
700 souls, was unearthed recently by
workmen razing one of the massive
six-foot walls of the Church of Our
Lady of the Angels, at the Plaza.
The fount, eighteen inches in diam
eter and made Of a wood and stone
composition, with a silver rim, was
imbedded in four feet of adobe in a
closet which had been sealed for more
than three-quarters of a century.
The fount was not removed, but by
direction Of FIR. Eugene Sugranes the
relic will be preserved in it's century
old niche, where it can be viewed by
the thousands who annually visit the
historic mission building.

RELIGIOUS VANDALISM
Sacred Vestments Destroyed in Church
Of Hermosa, S. D.-Mass Meeting
of Protest Will Be Held.

The Right Reverend Bishop Busch
of Lead on his return from Hot
Springs last week brought with him
evidences of a piece of religious van.
.dalism seldom equalled, which had
been perpetrated at Hermosa recently.
Rev. F. x. Haeusler of Hot Springs
visits Hermosa on the first and third
Tuesdays of each month for the pur-
pose of holding divine services for the
six or eight Catholic families of the
neighborhood
On his last visit he found that the
sacred vestments used in the celebra-
tion of Mass had been horribly desc
Grated. The lace Alb as well as the
satin Stole and Chasuble had been
slashed into shreds with knife. The
malice and venom of the deed are
seen in the fact that the articles were
as they were found. The intrinsic
value of the articles would not exceed
fifty dollars, but as they were blessed
and dedicated to divine service, their
destruction or mutilation takes on the
nature of sacrilege
The Stole and Chasuble had been
recently donated to the church by
Rev. M. J. Straeten of Rapid City, and
the members of the congregation not
only feel their loss very keenly, but
deplore the fact as well that there
should be in their midst one who is
so perverted and malicious. The gen.
eral supposition is that some reader
of that violently Anti-Catholic sheet,
The Menace, which has been exten-
sively circulated throughout the Hills
during the-past months was instigated
to the deed by it's infiammatory SIAN
ders
The Stole is not only gashed with
knife, but bears the marks of fire
as we'll, which would indicate that
perhaps it, was mere accident which
saved the chapel and it's entire con-
tents from being destroyed by fire,
after having served the little congre-
cation for the last ten or fifteen years.
The Knights of Columbus will prob
ably take the matter up with view
to forestall any repetition of the out
rage in the vicinity
The same train that conveyed the
desecrated vestments to Lead also
carried an express package addressed
to Bishop Busch containing three full
sets of Mass vestments in different
colors, donation from The Taber-
nacle Society of Omaha, Neb. These
will be blessed and assigned to the
Hermosa chapel by the Bishop. The
Rt. Rev. Bishop has also consented to
preside at mass meeting to be held
in the near future in Hermosa as a
protest against this wanton assault
upon the Catholic religion.

GIFT To IRISH SISTERS
William o'Rrien Gives His Home to
the Sisters of Mercy.

Mr.. William O'Brien's gift of his
beautiful home, Mallow Cottage, West
port, Ireland, to the Sisters of Mercy
has received much favorable COM
ment The house, which was once the
residence of the Earls of Altamount,
stands on the shores of Clews Bay,
and needs very little alteration to
make it a valuable. adjunct to the
work of the good Sisters, either as a
convalescent home or sanatorium. 1t
is surrounded by spacious park,
while the gardens about the house are
very charmingly laid out. The live
stock and farm utensils were dis
tributed by the owner to the poor of
the neighborhood when he determined
to give up the house.

DID BISMARCK HAVE

THESE CURLSE
BERLIN, January 30.-Doubt has
been cast upon the genuineness of the
locks of Bismarck's hair which a bar.
Der of the name of Ernest Roehrig is
now selling throughout the country,
and efforts are being made to stop the
nourishing business he has establish
ed
Roehrig was the iron chancellors
barber and during the years he attend
ed his famous employer he was wise
enough to collect the locks he clipped
Now he has fashioned them into small
curls, affixed a small bronze bust of
the empire maker and is Offering them
at constantly increasing prices to the
public. At first the supply was limited
to 100 curls, but since the patriotic
Germans have been clamoring for the
relics of his illustrious patron, Roeh-
rig has discovered that he has an al
most endless supply of silver locks, all
of which, of course, came from the
head of Bismarck.
But some Germans have long memoir
les and the case of Wagner is recalled
The great composers barber did d
thriving business in his patrons clip
ped locks until Frau Wagner, hearing
of it, made it her practice to accom-
Gany her husband to the barber shop.
When his hair had been clipped to ner
satisfaction Frau Wagner produced a
small bag, into which she gathered all
the hair that had been cut.
Noticing the look of chargin that
came over the BARRIERS face, when he
saw his profits disappear. Frau Wag-
ner took pity on him and remarked
that her butcher had the same colored
hair as her husband. The barger lost
no time in following up the hint and
the sale of "Wagner's locks" went
merrily on
The hair of composes seem to have
been in great demand at all times
Verdi was prevailed upon to part with
a limited number of his locks for char
ity. Applications were to be made by
letter and hundreds of requests were
complied with in the first few days.
His admirers noticed, however, that
his hair remained as long and thick as
ever, despite the extraordinary demand
upon it and also that the hair of his
attendant, which was the same color,
became thinner and thinner. From
that time the applications ceased.
