CENTENNIAL.
Sisters of Loretto CeIe-
brate with Solemn
Services.


The Sisters of Loretto, one OF the
greatest teaching bodies in the
Catholic church, celebrated every
where on Thursday the centennial
anniversary of their order, which
was founded in Kentucky. The
greatest celebration. OF course, was
at Loretto, where the Right Rev.
Bishop O'Donaghue, assisted by
Vicar General Cronin, Rev, Father
Monaghan and a number of priests,
celebrated the solemn Pontifical
mass of Thanksgiving. At the gospel
of the mass, Just one hundred years
after the first ceremony, seven
young women received the white
veil of the novitate and ten novices
made their religious profession and
accepted the Lorettine's black veil
from the Bishops hand. The order,
which was founded in Kentucky
seven miles from Loretto Academy,
by three Kentucky girls, is the first
American religious order approved
by the Pope. These three young
won(en renounced the world and all
of its promises to Father Charles
Nerinskx, who was a native Of
Belgium. The order now has
branches in all parts of the United
States and is one of the largest of
its kind.

LAID TO REST.
Impressive Services Mark
Father Sheridan's
Funeral.

Impressive services marked the
funeral of Father John Sheridan at
Holy Cross church, which was pre-
sided over by Bishop O'Donaghue
and attended by large gathering of
the clergy and laity. Vicar General
Cronin was the celebrant of the
high mass of requiem, and Rev.
Patrick Walsh, of Sacred Heart
church, preached a sermon that
touched the heart of every one pres
ent. Father Sheridan was a man of
strong character, and as the poor
were as dear to him as the wealthy
he was instrumental in drawing
many souls to God. The different
societies organized by him at Holy
Cross is sufficient testimony of the
good he has done. These are the st.
Aloysius and Sacred Heart Sodalities,
the st. Vincent de Paul Society and
the Debt Paying Association, all Of
whom have adopted memorials on
his death. The st. Aloysius Sodality
was Father Sheridan's special pride,
and to him it was the greatest pleas
ure to see the thirty-five or forty
young men and boys approach the
regularly. His great in
terest in the school was also always
manifest, and by none will he be
more missed than the good SisterA
and pupils.

Lesson
In Titanic Disaster Cited
by Rev. Father O'SuI-
llvan.

An added feature to the regular
meeting of Division A, A. o. H., on
Monday evening was the presence Of
their chaplain, Rev. Father O'Sulli-
van, who when called upon by Presi-
dent John Hennessy spoke OF the
bright prospects for home rule in
Ireland. for which a great deal of
credit was due the Ancient Order Of
Hibernians in America, who have
been rendering valuable aid for this
noble and patriotic cause. Father
O'Sullivan also spoke OF the lesson
given in the Titanic disaster, in
which the rule of the sea, women
and children first" should also be-
come the motto for this country as
preventive of the great divorce evil,
which is yearly destroying ten times
the number of women and children
that were imperiled in the steam
ship disaster. A report of Treasurer
Harry Brady's death was made and
the division Secretaries were ap-
pointed 10 draft resolutions on
his death. Thomas Downey was
elected to fill the vacancy. Thomas
Dignan was present, after a long
absence, and read an interesting
article on Hugh O'Nelll and the Irish
Confederacy.

GRAND
Showing Made by Catholic
knights on Sunday
Morning.
Last Sunday was the thirty-fifth
anniversary O, the Catholic knights

Last Sunday was the thirty-fifth
anniversafy OF the Catholic knights
of America, and at the high mass at
St. Johns church, celebrated by the
Rev. Father Schuhmann, the pastor,
the Uniform Rank and members of
the various local branches APP
preached the holy table. Never had
more beautiful and impressive serv-
ices marked the observance of the
anniversary of this order. AS the
military companies, escorting their
Supreme officers, and the Knights
entered the church they formed a
long line on either side of the main
aisle, which had been reserved for
them. Ranged before the altar the
two companies presented swords at
the elevation, presenting an inspir-
ing scene and one that will long be
remembered by the congregation
present. Rev. Father Schuhmann
preached a forceful sermon, full OF
thought and unction, addressed not
only to the Knights, but to the men
and women not members. The Cath
olic Knights were welcome to st.
Johns, he said, as they were en-
gagged in a noble work-caring for
the widow and orphan. This was a
great and commendable order, but
its best feature was not the millions
paid out or the big reserve fund, but
the many souls that had been saved
to God through its agency. Father
Schuhmann's words were highly ap-
preciated by all who heard him.

Dublin Convention Expresses
Sorrow For the Titanic
Disater.
Declared the Most Satisfactory
Measure Ever offered to
Ireland.
CONFIDENCE IN JOHN REDMOND

In Dublin on Tuesday when the
Nationalist convention, assembled
under the Presidency of John "a
Redmond, its first act was to pass a
resolution expressing sorrow at the
disaster to the Titanic. The conven-
ton was the largest and most har-
monious ever held under the Ma
tlonalist party, every town and
county, religion and class being rep
resented.
Although the acceptance in prin-
ciple of the home rule bill was
foregone conclusion, there was
plenty of enthusiasm among the
delegates, and cheers broke out as
Chairman Redmond described the
third rome rule bill as the most
satisfactory measure ever offered to
Ireland. Mr.. Redmond declared that
under the bill Dublin Castle, with all
Its blood-stained traditions, would
disappear The Irish would be a
nation of fools not to accept the bill.
which gave Ireland immediate con-
troll of nine-tenths of the Irish serv-
ices, and eventually. of the whole.
The finance provision of the bill, he
said, was better than that of either
Of the two previous measures. Mr..
Redmond concluded by moving a
resolution accepting the bill, which
was seconded by the Lord Mayor of
Cork, and carried amid a scene of
wild enthusiasm and the unfurling
of the green flag. m
Another love feast was witnessed
when a number of Catholic priests
proposed that the necessary amend
ments to the bill should be left in
the hands of Mr.. Redlond. The mo-
ton was supported by the Protestant
rector of Kenmore, and carried by
reclamation.
Wv. G. Q. 'Gixdstolre; a grandson or
the one-time Premier, addressed the
convention. and received a stirring
welcome.
A telegram was read at the con-
Vention from Patrick Egan, formerly
United States Minister to Chile, de-
claring that the message signed by
torty-six Irish-Americans against
home rule did not represent Irish
American opinion. and adding that
this effort to stab ireland in the
back should be univeran6G cons
demned. - Hn
John O'CallaghanN ry of
the United Irish LeagV ressed
an overflow meeting, at h he
declared the honest hand 6Nfriend-
ship held out by the home rule bill
should be grasped by the Irish in
the United States. The only oppo-
nents of the measure there were men
who had been always opposed to any
constitutional movement.
The unanimity of the people of
ireland in favor of the home rule
ernment that the opposition in the
North is insignificant, and II would
be the part OF wisdom for the House
of Lords to agree to its passage,
which will inevitably come, without
further delay.

ploit themselves and degrade the
State by which Haly and Beckham,

Truth across their path.
