To Honor St. Teresa.-A movement
has been begun by the Carmelite
Fathers of Madrid to have ST. Teresa
formally declared doctor of the
Church. The circular sent out by the
fathers POUNDS the request in addition
to the merits of the saint as a mys-
| tical theologian on the repeated state
ments of the Roman Pontiffs, who
have more than once styled st.
| Teresa doctor.

New Scottish Bshop.-Very Rev.
John Canon Toner, st. Columbkille's,
Rutherglen, Glasgow, has been ap-
pointed Bishop of Dunkeld, Scotland,
| in succession to the late Bishop
Fraser. The new Bishop is a native
of Glasgow city, where he was born
in 1857. He was educated in Blair
! College, Glasgow, and Valladolid,
| Spain. He was ordained in 1882 and
parish, Motherwell, since 1901. A
rather noteworthy coincidence in con-
nection with the appointment is fur
nished by the fact that the late Right
| Rev. Angus McFarlane, Bishop of
Dunkeld, was the immediate predeces-
sor of Bishop Toner in ST. Columb-
kille's Rutherglen, and he was in
charge of that parish at the time of
his elevation to the episcopacy. While
| taking no active part in politics,
Bishop Toner has always evinced a
| deep sympathy with the Irish move
ment, and his views in this connec-
ton have been much appreciated by
his Irish parishioners, who form the
vast majority of his congregation.
