BISHOP GUM BETTER.

The news that the Right Rev.
John K. Gum, Bishop of Natchez,
who has been. i'll at New Orleans, is
we'll enough to return to his do
cese in few days will be hailed with
joy, not only by the people of Missis-
sippi, but by hundreds of friends
throughout the United States and
Europe, where he is widely known.
On February %, while the Bishop
was i'll at the Hotel Dieu, there oe-
Cured the twenty-fourth anniversary
of his ordination to the holy priest
hood. His Lordship was ordained In
st. Peters, Rome. in 1890, with an
other young priest from England.
Immediately after his ordination he
was presented to the Sovereign Pom
tin, the late illustrious Pope Leo
Kill, by the Duke of Norfolk, who
had come to Rome for the ordina-
tion. Bishop Gums career as a
priest was most remarkable one,
and the wisdom of Pope Plus X. In
elevating him TO the episcopate In
1911 has been eminently justified
in the noble record that he has made
as Bishop of Natchez.
