Rev. David J. Mountain to Labor
Among CoIored PEOPLE,

Rev. David ]. Mountain, an alumnus
of the Apostolic Mission House, Wash

of the Buffalo Apostolate for the past
four years, has placed himself under
the direction of Very Rev. John E.
Burke, director of the Catholic Board
for Mission Work among the colored
people.
The particular purposes of this
board are to create and foster the
missionary spirit among Catholics and
others in favor of the colored people
and to contribute to their spiritual and
temporal welfare; to erect schools
and churches for them, especially in
the south.
I Catholic faith and discipline are
known to have very beneficial effect
on the race, and unfortunately in the
United States, this faith is entirely
unknown to a large portion of the COL
5ored people, hence there is broad
field awaiting the Catholic missionary
lin this line of work.
The bishops of the Catholic church
In times past, have made jealous ef-

chaplain, whose departure from Fort
Huachuca was greatly regretted.
Father Houlihan received high
praise from Secretary of War Garrison

visit to Fort Huachuca last summer.
When Father Houlihan arrived at

solicit funds for the erection of
building which would serve for divine

A Distinguished Officer at St. Thomas
College.

College.
Colonel George X. McGunnegle, First
United States Infantry, was guest
of the Paulist Fathers at Saint
Thomas college, Catholic University,
the past week.
Colonel McGunnegle has been on an
extended leave of absence since Sep
TENDER Is, from his regiment which
is. stationed at Schofield Barracks,
Hawaii territory, one of the most de-
lightful of the United States army
posts.
Colonel McGunnegle is a Marylander
by birth, and was appointed to the
army from civil life on October 1, 1873.
and has passed through all the grades
of rank to colonel, which he attained
on July 8, 1906.
AS Colonel McGunnegle does not re-
tire for age until June %, 1918, and, as
he is now No. 3 in the long list of
colonies of infantry for promotion, the
chances are that he will soon reach
the rank of brigadier general.
Colonel McGunnegle's daughter is
the wife of Lieutenant Philip H. Sheri-
dan, Fifth Cavalry, at Fort Myer. The
marriage took place at Schofeld Bar
racks.
Colonel McGunnegle departs for his
station soon.

Bureau Of Farm Loans.

Senator Morris, of Nebraska, plans
to introduce bill for a bureau of
farm loans in the Department of Agri-
culture, as result of an Investigation
into rural credits.
The bureau would loan directly to
farmers for the purpose of making
first payments upon homes, and pos
sibly for livestock and farming imple-
ments. Payments could be made at
any time by installments, and the
amount to be loaned would be limited
to either one-half or three-fourths of
the value of the lands.
The senator's idea is that through
the army of postoffice inspectors, post
masters, district attorneys and others,
the government could carry on the
business practically.
