PLANS MODEL TOWN

In plan for village designed by a

the usual practice of building in rows or
straight streets. in which no attempt is
made to relieve the monotony of the de-
sign nor conduce TO the general uplift OF
the surroundings Instead they have
taken into account the physical aud IN

| the main feature of the plan will be a
large building which will form the center
of the social life of the villagers. 1t will
contain a large auditorium, library, boys

streets will be located houses in groups

the beautiful Brownsville estate, Eng

1 houses, in addition to two boarding
houses, making an average OF thirteen
| houses per acre.
THE plan of the houses can be divided
| broadly into two groups, the smaller ones
containing on the ground floor Il stair
hall, living room with old-fashioned fire
place, dining room and kitchen, and on
| the second floor three bedrooms and bath
room with toilet. The larger houses con-

SISTERS RENDERED HOMELESS
DESTRUCTION OF MoTHERHoUsE
OF THE SISTERS OF ST. JOSEPH,
WICHITA, KANSAS, ENTAILED A
LOSS OF $55,ooo-sIsTERs AND
ORPHANS LOSE EVERYTHING.

The fire which occurred last Sunday
week in the Motherhouse of the Sis
ters of st. Joseph, Wichita, Kansas,
was more disastrous than the first re-
ports published in the press indicated.
The entire building was destroyed, to-
gether with all it's furnishings, except
the little that the Sisters were able to
save in the few minutes which elapsed
between the discovery of the fire and
its spread to all parts of the building.
The fire was discovered in the attic
at four o'clock in the afternoon by
one of the postulants and in a short
time the structure was enveloped in
flames. The nearest hydrant was half
a mile away, at the foot of the hill on
which the convent was built and it
was impossible to play more than one
stream of water on the structure.
There were twenty-six Sisters and
twenty orphans in the institution.
They lost their personal effects and
all the contents of the building except
what was saved by the Sisters assisted
by their neighbors.
AS the fire swept through the con-
vent chapel, Sister Xavier stumbled
through the suffocating smoke and
binding flames to the tabernacle and
succeeded in removing the ciborium
containing the Blessed Sacrament.
Mount st. Mary's Convent was for
merly the Wichita University. It was
bought by the Right Reverend Bishop
Hennessey in December, 1899, and,
after being renovated, was taken pos
session of by the Sisters of st. Jo-
seph in the following March. In May
the Novitiate of the Order was trans
ferred. from st. Paul, Kansas, to
Wichita, and in August wing was
opened for a diocesan orphanage in
which 260 orphans have been taken
care of since that time.
All that now remains of this old
landmark is a mass of charred and
twisted ruins from which portions of
the walls rise up to give the spectator
some idea of the splendor of the
structure which housed the Sisters
and their charges. The loss is esti-
mated at $4,000. Already the witch

IRISH DICTIONARY
A MONUMENTAL WORK THAT
WILL BE AN AUTHORITY ON
THE IRISH LANGUAGE.

The Royal Irish Academy has OBJ
tanned $4,000 bequeathed by Prot
estant clergyman. the late Rev. Max
well Close, for the publication of a
dictionary of the Irish language. Be
fore the time limit imposed by the
testator expired the first volume of
the dictionary had been placed on
sale in Dublin and a copy delivered
to the commissioners of bequests.
This part is really only a small
fragment of what is intended to be a
monumental work Though the vol
ume itself is large it contains only
words in the letter d up to De. A,
B and G had been published as con-
tributions to Irish lexicography by
Professor Kuno Meyer. The present
part was compiled by the Norwegian
scholar, Professor Marstrander, as
sisted by three Irish woman pupils in
his school of Irish learning in Dublin.
The aim of the Royal Irish Academy
is to make this dictionary as complete
for the Irish language as Murray's
famous dictionary is for the English
language. At the present rate of prog
ress it will take generations to COM
plete the work.

PRIEST STOPS LEGAL ACTION
FATHER HUGHES OF MANKATo
WITHDRAWs ACTION TO PRE-
VENT BIBLE READING IN THE
HIGH SCHOOL.

The legal action begun some months
ago by the Reverend Robert Hughes,
pastor of the Church of st. John,
Mankato, to stop the practice of Bible
reading and other religious exercises
in the High School of that city, has
been withdrawn and the proceedings
dismissed on motion of the plaintiff.
Father Hughes took this action in
order to allay the religious prejudices
which had been aroused in case
which he hoped would be tried on it's
legal merits and entirely apart from
religious considerations. The point to
be determined was whether or not the
Board of Education of Mankato had
any right to countenance Bible read
ing in the High School. The case was
set for trial this month, but in view
of the action taken by Father Hughes
the suit has been withdrawn and the
matter stands as it was before the
injunction proceedings were started.
It has been decided, however, that
pupils who do not wish to participate
in these religious exercises shall not
be required to do so.

NE MORTAL CHAPEL
ERECTED ON THE LITTLE ST
BERNARD IN MEMORY OF
FATHER GLAMOUR.

Some weeks ago an interesting
ceremony took place on the Little St
Bernard, Switzerland, when a com.
memorative chapel, built by interna.
tional subscriptions, not confined to
Catholics, was solemnly inaugurated.
The origin of the effort is very inter
esting.
For fifty years Father Glamour was
rector of the famous Hospice of st.
Bernard. When dying he expressed a
wish to rest where he had labored so
long, on the Pass succoring travellers
and the poor, but as there was no pro-
vision for interment in the mountains,
his body was taken down to the parish
cemetery of La Thule. But soon, un-
der the patronage of Queen Mar
guerita, the Princess of Savoy, sub
scription was commenced by the
Maurician Order of the Alpine Club,
and the chapel is the result.
The funeral cortege bearing the
bodies of the dead monk and of Sister
Maire, his own sister, who had also
worked with him in the Businesses of
the mountains, was accompanied by
the Bishop of Monitors, the Prefect
of Chambery, a Deputy of Savoy, and
many Italian and Savoyard notabiIities
in addition to several old travellers
who remembered the good priest. After
the reinterment in the chapel, the Wis
itors were entertained at the monas-
terry of st. Bernard in the Alps.

DEATH or FATHER sNREKAR
A SLOVENIAN PRIEST WHO LA
BORED FOR SEVERAL YEARS IN
THE DIOCESE or DuLuTH-oR-
DAINED AT ST. PAUL SEMINARY.

The Reverend Andrew Smrekar,
pastor of st. Mary's Slovenian Church,
Cleveland, Ohio, died on September
9, after several years of i'll health.
Father Smrekar was a native of
Austria where he was born in 1871.
At the age of twenty he came to
America and entered, St. Thomas Col
lege, st. Paul, then the diocesan Semi
nary, and, later on, the ST. Paul Semi
nary where he was ordained to the
priesthood in 1897, for the Diocese of
Duluth. His first appointment was as
assistant to Mgr. Buh of Ely During
the following years he was success
sively pastor of ST. Martins Church,
Tower, Chaplain of st. Anthony's Hos
pital, Bemidji, and pastor Of st. An
thongs Church, Duluth.
In 1905, he went to Cleveland and
was assistant pastor at the Church
of ST. Lawrence, and afterwards at
the Church of st. Vitus. Five years
ago, he was made pastor of the Church
of st. Mary, where he died and from
which his funeral took place last
week.
Father Smrekar was gifted with
poetic ability and had translated a
number of English works into the
Slovenian language, among them the
Indian legend of Hiawatha.

ST. JOHNS CHURCH, VERMILLION.

had been obliged to attend Mass at
first church was built, Father Koering
continued to attend it as mission
The first resident pastor was Rever-
end J. ]. Jacobs. He was succeeded
by the late Reverend Godfried Braun
who died a few years ago in Ger
many. Father Lette followed and
after his time, st. Johns was attended
by Father Boniface, o. S. B., of Hast
ings. In 1901, Reverend Plus Schmidt
became pastor and for ten years con-
tinued to minister to the needs of the
rapidly increasing population. He was
succeeded in 1911 by the present pas
tor, Reverend Anthony Kaesen.
One of the first improvements at
tended to by Father Kaesen was the
remodelling and complete renovation
of the priests residence. This done,
he directed the attention of the peo-
pie to the constantly increasing ur-
gency of the need for larger church;
and it was not long before the par
ishioners, under the inspiration of
their pastors zeal, entered heartily
into the new enterprise. With $4,000
already in the treasury the parish de-
cided to erect a $35,000 church.
The plans of the new edifice were
drawn by V. Cordella of Minneapolis
and the contract for the building was
awarded to E. Hirt of st. Cloud. The
church will be 135 feet long. The
width at the transept is 72 feet and
the nave is Sc feet wide. The ma
terial used is Menominee pressed
brick with trimmings of Kasota cut
stone. A copper covered tower 124
feet in height will add much to the
beauty of the building.
The basement walls, twelve feet
high, are now completed and indicate
the generous plans of the building.
Compared with the old church it will
have more than twice the seating ca
pacity and is also more favorably
located. 1t is situated across the
street from the present building and
faces the south. The old church will
continue to be used for religious serv-
ices until early next summer, when
it will be remodelled to serve as a
parish hall and for school purposes.
Meantime work is being fastened on
the splendid new church with the in
tention of having it enclosed this fall.

A CATHOLIC SCIENTIST
eALvANI MADE IMPORTANT DIS
covERIEs IN ELECTRICITY.

Luigi Galvani is one of the many
distinguished sons of Italy to whom
the world is indebted for most i'm
portant scientific discoveries He was
born at Bologna on September g.
1877. 1t was his desire to become a
priest, but his education developed a
remarkable talent for medicine and he
finally chose that profession.
When only twenty-five years of age
he was appointed lecturer on anatomy
in the University of Bologna, and be.
came as years advanced, one of the
greatest physicians and anatomists
of the world. His discovery Of the
principle of animal galvanism, SO
styled after his name, proved great
contribution to science 1t is said that
his wife being in delicate health, he
was preparing some frogs legs for
her, when he noticed that the scalpel,
which had lain near an electrical ma
chine, on touching the frogs legs
threw them into convulsions, and that
this led him to make the series of ex-
periments which resulted in his evolv-
ing the great scientific principle.
When his native land, Italy. was
dismembered near the close of the
eighteenth century, Galvani was asked
to swear allegiance to the cis-Alpine
Republic, which his conscience would
not permit him to do, and for his re-
fusal he was deprived of his profes-
sorship. He was now three score
years, and felt the blow most keenly.
He retired to his brothers house, and
soon fell into a decline.
The Government Of the Republic,
perceiving the results Of its intoler-
ance, and in view Of the great fame
of the scientist, offered finally to re-
instate him in his chair in the great
university, but the reversal came too
late. He died on the 4th Of December,
1898.
