In 1889 Mrs Graham came to New

boarding school for young American
women and here she furthered her
work of charity and philanthropy.
She established the society for the re-

1895, one of the earliest societies of
systematized charity in this country.
and two years later gave up her
school SO that she might devote the
remainder of her life to her good

'Tn conversation which | once
had with the late William r. Grace,
who was elected Mayor of New York
city on the day of the Presidential
election of 1884 and who had been
nominated as the candidate of the
Cleveland or County Democracy for
Mayor he told me that 1t was not
entirely due or in any considerable
measure due to the advice of Jay
Gould that some of the more impet-
uous Republicans who thought of con-
testing the election abandoned that
purpose.
you remember" said Mayor Grace,
that for several days the election
very close. At one time ii seemed
almost certain that Blaine had car
ried the State by a plurality less than
a thousand. Then came reports
which indicated that Cleveland had
carried it by an equally small plural
ity. There was, as always Ia the
case in close elections, charges OF
fraud and ballot box stuffing
MY own party had not got over
its feeling that Governor Tilden had
been deprived of the Presidency
through skilful Republican tactics.
1t was certain that If, eight years
later, an attempt were made to con-
test the Presidential vote there might
be danger of civil war. A secret con-
ference held by several citizens of
New York who were of influence and
who represented different parties, was
held, and 1t was decided TO communi-
cate informally with some Of the
leading Republicans In Washington.
Il presume 1t will never be known
who these men were. They were
actuated by the profoundest patriotic
motives. | think a good many per-
sons felt that, as Tilden lost the

election, 1t would even things up II

Watch lest the day he sad.
Stars miDgle good and bad.

According to astrology, this is day
when special care should be taken to
guard whatever is important in bust
ness or social life. The planets mingle
good and bad influences, since Nep-
tune and Saturn are in adverse
aspect, while Mercury is friendly
Journeys by sea are not under a
good omen. There is special danger
of meeting undesirable acquaintance,
as attractions to peculiar and mys-
ferrous persons are supposed to be
strong under this configuration.
1t is held that the astral vibrations

disorganizing and to intensity impress

was John Sherman, then a United
States Senator. Mr. Sherman learned
authoritatively upon the face of the
returns that Cleveland had carried
New York State by a little over 1000
plurality. To upset these returns it
would be necessary to begin a con-
test, order a recount and establish
charges of fraud.
Senator Sherman said to these
gentlemen: You go back to New
York and say that 1t is my opinion
and that OF my colleagues in the
Senate with whom / have talked that
it is the duty of the Republican party
to accept unquestioned what the re-
turns in New York State show tho
plurality to have been. 1t is in the
highest degree important ;hat This
be done, for | fear that the country
could not stand again the strain of
contested presidential election.
II have always suspected that Jay
Gould was aware that the Republican
Senators would not support any at
tempt 10 contest the election OF TROY
er Cleveland, in view of what the
returns in New York State showed
the election to have been, but it
was chiefly the influence Of John
Sherman and two or three others at
Washington which served to cool the
impotence and to put an end to the
irritation of certain of the Repub-
leans who for a time advocated
making a contest over the reported
return of the poll In New York

us disconsolate. But as we reflect, in
the calmer moments of our sorrow, it
is given us partially to understand the
ways of Providence and to bow humbly
and submissively to the will that rules
our earthly destinies and the divinity
that shapes our ends.
Our hearts are rent asunder and
dark gloom is upon the soul, but out
of the depths of affection comes a vi.
sion of his innocent face radiant with
the light that illumines the Throne (;
and we know that he is safe in the
Fathers house and Heaven is happier
and richer for that ne is there. Our
solace shall be to know that We gave
him back unsullied, ere the sins of the
world should beset or pollute him; and
our sustaining hope shall be that we
shall meet again.

transition;
This life of mortal breath
Is but suburb of the life elysian,

MARIsT PRIEST RETURNS.

Father Frainaud, the Marist priest,
who came here from Holland en- route
to a small mission center near Mex
leo City, and was detained by Father
Larkin until information could be got
ten from the Mexican provincial, but
finally started for his assignment, has
returned to Algiers because it was i'm
possible for him to go further than
Ell Paso.
He does not speak English, but from
his description in French the condi-
ton Of the Mexican country is GER
tainly awful. All railroads are colsed
to traffic, and the steamship lines to
Vera Cruz have more applications for
transportation than they can possibly
accommodate.
For the present Father Frainaud
will remain at the Marist house, in the
Fifth District. He is greatly handi-
capped because of his inability to
speak English. His future plans will
not be known until he receives further
instructions. He seems anxious to go
to the missionary work, feeling that
he could be of more service there.

MOUNT olIVET NOTES.

To-day being Maundy Thursday, or
the day which the Church keeps in re-
membrance of the commands of our
blessed Lord do this in remembrance
of me-" there will be a celebration of
the Holy Communion at 1880 a. m.
Tomorrow, Good Friday, there will
be service at 10000 a. m. when the rec
tor will officiate, and at 1880 p. m. the
Rev. A. R. Edbrooke, rector of Grace
Church, will preach.
On Easter Sunday there will be two
celebrations of the Holy Communion,
at 700 and 10000 a. m, the sermon
will be preached at 1000 a. m, when
the full choir will assist. The confir,
nation class of this year is expected to
receive their first communion at the
700 a. m. service.
The offering this Easter will be for
the purpose of liquidating the debts of
the parish, and as stated in the letter
of the rector to the families of the con.
gregation we hope for an offering that
will mean self-denial. We owe the
Goodrich Fund a neat little sum, and
its is hoped that some payment can be
made on that amount so that the fund
can assist the destitute congregation at
Plaquemine, which has just lost by
fire its church and rectory buildings.
The rector officiated at the baptism
of Frank Baril, infant son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Baril, last Sunday, the
sponsors being Mr.. and Mrs. Howard

MANUAL TRAINING CLASS.

Our present school system recogniz-
ing the fact that head and hand should
be trained together, organized Manual
Training classes for the boys of the
seventh and eighth grades in our pub
lie schools.
The boys of our district eagerly took
advantage of this course and some
very fine constructive work was the
result, but of late the attendance in
these classes has dwindled, not from
lack of interest in the work, but from
the inconvenience in getting to class.
AS we are all aware, there are four
centers of manual training; the boys
of this district are compelled to go
to Jackson school, which is a consid-
cradle distance; they must cross and
recross the river; pass three railroad
crossings, besides many have quite a
distance to walk on this side of the
river before they reach the ferry. Thus
the trip takes up large and valuable
part of the time that should be de-
voted to their regular studies.
Manual training trains the judg-
ment and executive faculty, so this
course is of incalculable aid towards
the childs future welfare because it
directs his activity, thus laying the
foundation for useful citizen.
AS Algiers is an industrial center,
and our boys evince a desire of avail.
ing themselves of the benefits of this
course, and last but not least time is
an all important item in school work,
the question arises whether it is wise
to suffer the continuance of this loss,
or whether it would not be better to
establish training school in this, the
Fifth District. We earnestly request
the parents of our boys, especially the
fathers, to be present at the lecture
by r. F.. Rugan, of Tulane University
in McDonogh No. Tuesday, April /
at eight o'clock p. m, and give this
subject due consideration.
