VIII Be Trlnity's Produc-
tion of "Mlss Dolly
Dollars.

1t has long been an established
fact that no two men have done
more toward the advancement of
light opera and musical comedy in
America than Victor Herbert and
Harry B. Smith, the former as com
poser and the latter as librettist. 1t
is therefore a pleasure for Trinity
Council, Y. NJ. l., to announce that
they will produce on the nights of
april Z, 8 and 9 at Macauley's Thea
ter one of the best musical comedies
from the workshop of these two
famous authors, namely "Miss Dolly
Dollars" a work of great brilliance,
full of gaiety and jollity, haunting
melodies, snappy dialogue, and last
but not least staged and costumed in
a manner dazzling to behold. 1t has
always been the aim of Trinity
Council to present to the public only
the best, and it will be seen that
Miss Dolly Dollars will surpass
anything ever given by them before.
Trinity knows that the public ex-
poets great things from any operatic
venture 1t may undertake, and moth
ing has been left undone to give the
public a most pleasant surprise.
The work of the cast and chorus will
be worthy of the efforts of profess
sionals, Those who have seen some
OF the rehearsals claim unanimously
that Miss Dolly Dollars" will make
the greatest hit of anything of its
Kind ever given in Louisville before.

GONE TO REST.
Mrs. Theresa Walter Dach-
er Expires Suddenly
Tuesday.

When death claimed Mrs. Theresa
Walter Dacher last Tuesday morning
It was to give her that great eternal
reward which she has won through
zeal and piety as we'll as a cheerful
and charitable disposition. When
the sad news became known much
sympathy was felt throughout the
city because il lost one of its older
and most respected members. Mrs.
Dacher was one of the old-time
parishioners of st. Martins church,
and her regular attendance as well
as her jealous spirit in all church
work made her we'll known to
priests and people. She was sixty
two years old and for some time had
been in ill health, but she bore her
suffering with patience and fortitude
until suddenly stricken with
apoplexy at her home, 1915 Bards-
town road. Surviving her are three
sons, Magistrate Frank Dacher, John
and Joseph Dacher; a daughter,
Mrs. Henry Bosse; two brothers,
Frank A Walter, proprietor of the
Clay-street Brewery, and Henry
Walter; sister, Mrs. Josephine e.
Kleier. and one grandchild. The
funeral was held Thursday morning
from st. Martins church with SOL
emn high mass of requiem, and was
one of the largest seen in that
church for many a day.

teeman John ]. Barry, of the New
Haven Echo, and John ]. Barry, of
the Kentucky Irish American, meet
ing by appointment at the Louisville
Hotel, from whence they went and
posed for a group photograph, which
was quite a task, as every time the
photographer would say "Mr. Barry,
move over a little" all four would
move, and County Assessor Ed
Barry, who was along, would also
get confused and think it was his
move. The Philadelphian, who is an
ardent Democrat, as are the other
John Us, was taken through the
City Hall and Court House to meet
some OF the Democratic office
holders, and was then introduced to
Frank McGrath. Scott Bullitt, Bar
ney Campbell, M. J. Brennan, Will

ers, who assured him that he was

DISAPPOINTED.
But Catholic knights and
Ladies' Hold Big
Meeting.

Though greatly disappointed over
the non-arrival of Supreme Presi-
dent Marr and Supreme Secretary
Hayes, who could not reach this
city from Chicago because of the
suspension of train service, the
Catholic Knights and Ladies of
America held a splendid meeting
Wednesday night, Robinson Hall be-
ing thronged to the doors and all
the branches well represented.
Thomas Keenan,, Sr., occupied the
chair and introduced the Supreme
Vice President, Miss Mary Sheridan,
who expressed regret at the alb
sence of the Supreme officers. Re-
viewing the history of the order
founded in this city twenty-three
years ago, she said the Knights and
Ladies had now branches in fourteen
States and had paid beneflciaries
over $1,900,000. Patrick Holley,
the first and only President Branch
2, the largest in the State, ever had,
was proud of his branch and the
order and made a strong appeal for
It's continuance and growth. Others
called upon were Charles Thoben,
Miss Rena Weisenberg, Magistrate
p. T. Sullivan, Dan Cuniff, Miss
Katie Henley and Presidents Guide,
Schwaninger and Skelly. A splendid
musical programme was rendered by
Miss Marie and James Dougherty,
Miss Rose Henley and Miss German.
The evenings entertainment con-
cluded with a dainty luncheon,
charmingly presided over by Miss
Margaret Norton, Miss Tillie Cuniff
and Mrs. Margaret Foley. Another
meeting will soon be held when the
Supreme officers can reach Louis
vile.

CARDINAL SUMMONED.

Cardinal Peter Respighi, Vicar
General to Pope Plus X, died Satur-
day in Rome. He was born at
Bologna on September 22, 1S43.
The death OF Cardinal Respighi, al
though expected, as he had been
gravely III OF influenza for some
time. caused feeling OF great dis
tTess in Vatican circles and through
cut the world. The fatal termination
Of the Cardinals illness was con-
cealed from the Holy Father, the
Vatican authorities not wishing 10
cause him grief on Easter eve, but
il was difficult to hide the fact long
as the Pontiff frequently inquired
regarding the condition OF his Vicar
General, whom he held In great
affection.

TAMMANY's CANDIDATE.

One thing seems to be assured by
the decision OF the Democratic lead
erse of New York City to put for
ward Judge Victor j. Dowling for
Mayor-the campaign will be on a
high plane. Judge Bowling has made
a record In the Assembly, In the SEN
ate and ON the bench. But II Is a
record that is not likely 10 entangle
him with the issues that may be ex-
pected to come to the front In the
next municipal election-police
excise. rapid transit. Tammany puts

party he represents. he is a young

fact that low wages may be a factor
in the ruin of many girls, II may be
a contributing factor in the general
problem of prostitution, but every
one knows that the girl animated by
Christian teaching will lead a pure
life under whatever adverse condi-
tions, and that she would rather die
than sell her virtue for a living.
With the elimination of all maudlin
sentiment, there is hope that the
present agitation will result in true
reform for womankind.

CHRISTMAS In SERVIA.

The. Scrvans, like all the Slavs, are
very religious, and during the Christmas
season there are some curious customs
observed which are probably older than
the date Of their conversion to Christian
ity. The strangest Of all is that called
throwing the kutdje" which is generally
by her daughters, the mother makes a
dough composed of wheat flour, honey
and currant preserves. and forms it into
huge cake. The father takes a handful
of the sticky dough and throws ii against
the ceiling. If the dough flattens out and
adheres to a rafter, the family will be
happy and prosperous during the year
in tho opposite event that is TO say, If
the dough falls at once this is sign Of
