PRINCELY.
Donation FOR LoyoIa Uni
versity From Southern
Woman.

AS a crowning memorial for the
immense amount of work done by
the Very Rev. Albert Biever during
his long administration as President
OF Loyola University in New Or
leans, Miss Kate McDermott has
generously donated $780, 900 for the
erection of magnificent new church
in memory of her beloved brother,
the, late Thomas McDermott. Miss
McDermott made known her splendid
gift when she transferred to Messrs.
Hugh McCloskey and William p
Burke, as trustees, the sum of
$4,000 with which to erect the
church. Miss McDermott's gift will
enable the Jesuit fathers to complete
the handsome group of buildings at
present contemplated for the uni
versity. Messrs. Burke and McClos-
key will have absolute Jurisdiction
over the fund, and the construction
of the church will proceed at once,
according to the plans of the Jesuit
fathers. Miss McDermott, in making
the gift. expressed the wish that it
would be known as memorial to
her brother Thomas, who died about
a year ago. Mr.. McDermott had
been one of New Orleans. most prom

MAYOR BURKE RESIGNS.

After accomplishing a noble work
in being largely instrumental in saw
ing his city from being torn to pieces
by flood, James e. Burke Thursday
morning rendered his resignation as
Mayor of Jeffersonville. "To take a
better job" was the answer he made
when asked why he had called a
special meeting for the purpose of
resigning. The big Mayor, tired and
haggard, but still ready to fight the
water, held in his hand a telegram
from the Hon. William Elijah Cox,
Representative in Congress from the
Third Indiana Congressional district.
This was to the effect that Mayor
Burke had been decided upon as
Postmaster at Jeffersonville, where
there is a vacancy on account of AL
bert L. Anderson having been found
short in his finances. Anderson is
now doing two years in the Federal
prison at Leavenworth, Kas.

proach, and above all a man of the
people, Mr.. McGrath possesses every
characteristic necessary for success
full political leadership, and the local
Democracy is to be congratulated in
its choice. After the election a ban
quet was served in the Italian room
of the Tyler Hotel, at which talks
were made by Col. John Whallen,
County Attorney Scott Bullitt, John
j. Barry, Frank Dugan, e. T..
Schmitt, Judge Herman Cooke, w.
p. McDonogh. Charles Foster, Jack
shea, Lloyd Gates, Joseph Overberg,
James Fahey, Charles Barker and
Theodore McCrory.
The Louisville Herald this past
week attempted to arouse the public
by stating that the McGrath-Whallen
regime wanted to select Busche-
meyer for Mayor and that he is not
the peoples choice, but forgot to add
that the above regime also selected
Mayor Head, who, in the opinion of
men of all political beliefs, has made
the best Mayor Louisville ever had,
and If the Herald is as public
spirited as II claims to be II should
lose no time in securing a vote of
thanks from our commercial bodies
and the public in general for Messrs.
McGrath and Whallen for their wise
selection. The Kentucky Irish
American has seldom found any
thing in the Evening Posts political
opinions worth an Endorsement, but
the following from Editor Knott
certainly sums up the popular view
OF the local Progressive party:
"All that the public knows about

The retreat instituted by the
Knights of Columbus and conducted
by Rev. Father Benedict Hanley, G..
p, which has been in progress both
morning and eevning at the Cathe-

largely attended and the results are
most gratifying. The Knights and
those who made the retreat with
them will receive holy communion at
the Cathedral tomorrow morning at
a special mass at 7:45 O'Clock.
Father Hanley has delivered a series
of able and instructive discourses,
which will have a lasting effect. The

the blessing.

PROMOTED.

Col. A. H. Egan, for the past ten
years Division Superintendent OF the
Illinois Central railroad and a
widely known and respected resident
OF this city, was last week promoted
TO be General superintendent of that
system, with headquarters in Mem
phis. Col Egan is one of the most
popular railroad officials in the
country, and II is with regret that
local railroad men part with him,
though they rejoice over his promo
tion and hope that success will fol-
low him and that he win go still
higher.

ESCAPE DAMAGE.

All the Catholic churches in the
city OF Omaha escaped undamaged
by the storm OF Easter Sunday. Only

emy Of the Sacred Heart, suffered
serious loss. Two parishes, however,
the Sacred Heart and st. Cecilia's,
suffered heavily. many Catholic fam
lilies having been rendered homeless.

We note with pleasure that Dr.
e. l.. Scharf, OF Washington, ID. c.,
TO whom We have had occasion to
refer more than once In these col
umns, has fallen heir to a title and
a fortune over in Europe, and that
he is going to the Austrian Tyrol
to become a nobleman. We hope
the news is true; and furthermore,
we trust that the so-called Schari
News Bureau will go with him. Per
haps DR.. Scharf meant well; we
doubt II. But he could create more
trouble to the square yard by his
mixing OF religion with his politics
than any man of whom we ever
knew. Scharf posed as representing
the interests OF the church. In

As was predicted in these columns
the week after our last election the
Progressives were made misfit
party of sorehead Republicans,
Roosevelt shouters and religious
bigots, and our further prediction
was that many Of them would be
found trying to sneak back in the
q. o. p, which is being done here
daily.
The Post also aptly stated this
week that municipal improvement
could only be found in selecting a
strong ticket at the Democratic
primary. and judging from the cali
ber of the men announcing daily
this can easily be done. One of such
announcements is that of DIR. Harry
f. Mechling for Coroner, who has q
following in this city of young men
of all parties second to none. DR..
Meetings. service as physical direc-
tor at the Y. NJ. G. A. and his long
career in the furtherance of amateur
athletics have won him a host of
boosters, who are always ready to
fall behind his banner.

George B. (Cack) Barrett is still in
the field by himself, while Henry e.
Owens friends are persuading him
to enter the race against the present
incumbent, Adam SPAIN, in the
iForty-sixth district, and are already
busy forming a working organization
in his interest. In the Forty-seventh
distritc popular Billy Kuh has no
opposition and his splendid record is
much in his favor. No announce
ments have been made in the Forty
seventh thus far or the Fiftieth,
while Will Perry and viii Duffy
are campaigning in the Forty-ninth
and Fifty-first districts.

in the barley which changes the starch
into most digestibie sugar.
