WATERFORD.
Worthy Memorial Will Be
Erected FOR Famous
Composer. sE'Es

The city of Waterford, which has
long since recorded it's admiration Of
the achievements of Thomas Francis
Meagher, whose name is indefbly in
scribed on the military history Of the
United States, has at last resolved to
do honor to another of its sons who
has worked in an entirely different
sphere. Waterford claims Wallace,
the composer of Mariana" ''Lur-
line" and scores of other productions
OF almost equal fame and popularity,
as one of its brilliant citizens, but up
to now exhibits nothing of a public
character to commemorate the fact.
II is regarded as a sad commentary
on the musical reputation of the
Irish people that it should be left to
Prof. Mahaffy, of Trinity College
Dublin. to lash himself into indigna-
ton before his fellow citizens could
be induced to do honor to the mem
ory of the great composer. The pro
lessor is VIGOROUSLY hard hitter
once he is reused, and he has boldly
told the Irish people that they are
no longer a musical race, but ma
ton of political propagandists. A
COMMITTEE has now been formed witt
men like Lord Iveagh, John Red
mond and Thomas Sexton at its head
and in about year or so a memoria
worthy of Wallace will be one of tn
features of the city by the SUR.

CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.

Recently the Very Rev. Thomas j.
shahan. Rector of the Catholic Uni
'lversity at Washington, received
most commendatory letter from His
Eminence Cardinal Merry del Val,
from which we extract the following:
IT was delighted to learn from
your recent letter that the Catholic
University of America, so wisely and
zealously directed by you, has
entered on such a successful year.
The increase over the preceding year
is truly remarkable and gives bright
lanes for the future. Considering
90 hold the university has already
taken in the Great Republic Of the
West. and the well merited conf
dence it is inspiring in the minds of
both lay and ecclesiastical aspirants
to higher education and culture, |
have no doubt that its influence on
the spread of the Catholic faith, of
Catholic principles and ideals
throughout the country, will be Of
the utmost moment and Of immense
benefit"
Accompanying the foregoing was
the apostolic benedietion of the Holy
Father.

APPALLING"

The daily press, reporting the Sun
day sermons in a number OF our
Louisville Protestant churches, note
that the Rev. DR.. Aquilla webb,
pastor of the Warren Memorial
church, stirred his congregation with
the following confession:
81 do not know the facts about
other denominations, but the facts
in the Presbyterian churches, both
North and South, are simply APP
Mailing. Last year 5,117 Presby-
terrain churches did not receive a
single soul on confession of faith.
This included all the Presbyterian
churches in this country, but the
burden on the heart is hnutterable. y
DIR. Webb took for his text, "How
shall we escape If we neglect so
great salvation?" saying 1.-THE epistle
To the Hebrews was written as
word OF exhortation by the author
10 some special church. And further
the epistle is written almost entirely
70 Christians who we're beginning to
drift away from their great saliva
ton"
why did not the reverend gentle
man complete his confession b!
telling the people who was Tho
author and when and to what specia
church the epistle was written. Lee
him seek this truth and he viii
probably become aware that he als'
is one Of those drifting away from
their great salvation, salvation tina
God has vouehsafed only through thu
Catholic church, the church HI
founded and against which the gate
of hell shall not prevail"

LOSS TO CITY.

Richard I. Nugent, one of Louis
ville's best known citizens, was called
from life in the best DAYS of his
manhood years, and his death is a
distinct loss to the city in which he
was born and reared. A self-made
man, he enjoyed the confidence and
respect Of all with whom he came in
contact. He had been i'll for some
time, but despite his strong physique
he could not combat his malady and
passed peacefully away, after being
fortified by the last sacraments. The
deceased is survived by his wife, who
was Miss Florence G. Burnley, and
three children, Richard c., Martin
and Elizabeth Nugent. He also is
survived by his mother, Mrs. Cath
crime Nugent, of Louisville, and five
brothers and four sisters. His funeral
was held Monday morning from Holy
Name church and was the largest
ever seen in South Louisville.

Senate by Senator Evan B. Stotsen-

testator may file copy of his last
will with the County Recorder and

time been studying the laws relating
to contesting of wills on the grounds
OF the insanity of the testator at the
time of making the will and has
found that many wills have been
broken that should have stood as the
testator left them. His plan would
abolish contests of wills except
where the testator failed to file his
will before his death.

WOULD SETTLE MYSTERY

II Manager Horace McCrocklin, OF
the Buckingham Theater, wants to
settle a long standing argument and
at the same time play to a packed
house. he should match the Ed
Adamson now prominent In the
wrestling game with the Ed Adamson
who was prominent in the wrestling
game here several years ago. Many
followers of athletics here are under
the impression that the two were
one and the same man, but this can
easily be disproven by reference tc
DR.. Mechling, former Y. NJ. c. A. in,
structor; Tracy Girdler, inspector OF
street repairs, and Edward Groeschel
of the Turner'S, all Of whom were
close friends Of the Adamson OF
