Ave-, as building sites for the church,
school and parsonage The enthusi
asm and zeal displayed by all con-
cerned in the new parish manifested
itself when, at the first attempt to Sc
cure money, 100000 was collected. In
1910 work was begun on the Institute
OF the Incarnation, which has since
been used as a church and school.
The building is an elegant one,
modern in every detail, and is counted
among the best school buildings in
the city The Dominican Sisters from
the Holy Rosary took charge of the
Incarnation school in September, 1911.
The growth of the school has been so
rapid that the entire building is now
needed for school purposes and at
tentlon is now being conferred UPON
the erection of new church. The
auditorium of the school has served
the parish needs in the way of a
church by increasing the number of
Masses, but growth of the parish has
been SO rapid that separate church
edihce is now imperative. The par
lshioners have built for their pastor.
rather Cleary, one of the best par-
sonages in the city. The new BAR
sonage became the residence of the
pastor in 1913. 1t is one of the
most pleasing in appearance and one
OF the most commodious in the Do
ccese of ST. Paul. The entire property
IN the Incarnation parish is valued
at upwards of $ll5,OOOOO.

SOME MINNEAPOLIS CHURCHES

The Church of St. Anthony of
Padua was the first of the present
churches to be erected in Minneapolis.
1t was built on the East Side. The
old church, considerably altered, is
still the parish church of St. Anthony.
1t drew worshipers from all parts of
the city. In 1886 missionary priests
visited St. Anthony and ministered
to the few Catholics located there.
A frame church was erected in 184o,
and the first resident pastor was
Father Ledon. He was succeeded in
1855 by Father Foyoile, who began
the erection of the old stone church
which has since been renovated and
renewed. Father McDermott was the
pastor from 1860 to 1866. Father
McDermott completed the building
and erected a parochial school, the
first in Minneapolis. Father Tissot,
a native of France, succeeded Father
McDermott. He built pastor resi-
dence, enlarged the school and for
p years remained as pastor of ST..
Anthony-from 1866 to 1888-when he
resigned and retired to the Dominican
convent in this city, where he died.
In 1885 Father O'Reilly, now Bishop
of Fargo, was made assistant to
Father Tissot and succeeded him as
pastor. When Father O'Reilly was
made Bishop of Fargo, Father Kenny
became pastor of St. Anthony's parish
Father Kenny resigned last summer
and was succeeded by Father Wilbee,
former pastor of St. Lawrence par
ish.

held in hall in the Lake Harriet dis
trict. In November, 1909, the present
church of St. Thomas was erected.
1t is located on the corner of 44th
St. w. and York Ave- So The parish
boundaries extend south and west
from the corner of Hennepin and
Lake. The labors of Father O'Brien
since the organization of the parish
have borne most fruitful results At
the present time the church is entirely
inadequate for the needs of the parish.
The realization that the Lake Harriet
district offers advantages for home
building not surpassed in any other
portion of the city resulted in the
rapid growth in the district of Lake
Harriet in which St. Thomas Church
is located. Father O'Brien is rec
ognized as one of the best pulpit
orators in the State and his keen in
terest in everything that affects the
Irish people and especially the
Ancient Order of Hibernians has won
for him the respect and admiration of
the members of the A. o. H. both
locally and nationally. He has been
prominent figure in the councils,
both in the state and national con-
ventions, for many years. Father
O'Brien was formerly State Chaplain
of the Hibernians in Minnesota

HOLY ROSARY CHURCH,

The Holy Rosary church was es-
tablished in 1873. The original build
ing was situated on 10Th avenue south
and 5th street, while the present
church of the Holy Rosary, one of the
finest in the city, is located at 18th
avenue and 24th street south. The
Holy Rosary church is the church of
the Dominican Order and the fathers
of the Dominican Parish have been in
strumental in building up a parish
spirit in the Holy Rosary parish
which is second to none in the Twin
Cities. The unselish zeal and will
ing sacrifices of the Dominican
Fathers is recognized, not only in
the elimination of the valuable church
property which they now own, but in
the growth of the religious spirit of
the Holy Rosary Parish, to which
the Pensioners point with pardonable
pride.

ST. LAWRENCE.

In 1898 St. Anthoney's Parish was
divided and St. Lawrence Church was
erected on 9TH street and 18th avenue
Sc. Father Byrne and Father Will
bee, now pastor of St. Anthoneys
Parish, were among the former pas
tors of St. Lawrence Church. The
parish of St. Lawrence has a par
ticular interest for the Catholics of
the State, inasmuch as the pastor of
St. Lawrence Parish is named chap.
lain of the Catholic University Club.
This year marks a new departure,
however, in that the Paulist Fathers
have been given charge of the St.
Lawrence Church. Their ability and
zeal will be shown in their spiritual
labors of the Catholic students of the
University.

INCARNATION.

The Incarnation parish was organ
lied in October, 1889. Mass was
celebrated in hall by Father Cleary,
as pastor. Father Cleary was form
erly pastor of St. Charles parish and
upon the request of a number of men,
now parishioners of Incarnation par
ish, the need of new parish beyond
Lake St. was laid before the proper
authorities, and the aid of Father
Cleary was solicited. Desirable lots
were secured at 38th St. and Pleasant

IMMACULATE CONCEPTION.
NOW PRO-CATHEDRAL OF
ST. MARY.

The first church built on the west
side of the river was the Immaculate
Conception church,, the parish which
is now known as the Pro-cathedral
parish. Rt. Rev. Bishop McGolrick,
now Bishop of Duluth, came to Min
neapolis in 1867. The corner stone
of the Immaculate Conception was
laid in 1871. Father McGolrick
was the pastor of the church
for p years. When the diocese of
Duluth was created, Father McGo1-
rick was consecrated the first Bishop
of Duluth His place as pastor of
the Immaculate Conception church
was taken by Father Byrne, who re-
manned for two years, when he went
to St. Paul Seminary. He was Sue
ceeded by Rt Rev. J. ]. Keane, now
Archbishop of Dubuque. He was
pastor of the Immaculate Conception
parish for ten years, when he was
named Bishop of Wyoming, and later
consecrated Archbishop of Dubuque.
Rev. Thos. E. Cullen, the present
pastor, succeeded Father Keane.
Under the direction of Father Cullen,
the new Pro-Cathedral of St. Mary,
on 10th and Hennepin, was erected.
The Pro-Cathedral is among the finest
church edifces in America, and is a
monument to the zeal and untiring
labors of Father Cullen.

ASCENSION PARISH.

The parish Of the Ascension was
formerly part of the Immaculate
Conception Parish. An independent
parish was formed in 1889, with Father
Christy as it's first pastor. The con-
gregation at first held their services
in the basement of St. Joseph Church.
Later wooden structure was erect
ed at 18th and Bryant. Father
Christy was later transferred to St.
Stephens, from whence he was made
Bishop of Vancouver, and later
Archbishop of Portland. Father Har-
rington, the present pastor, succeeded
Father Christy. The mention of the

ST. STEPHENS.

St. Stephens Church is located Oh
Clinton avenue and END street. Father
Patrick Kenny, later pastor of St.
Anthony's, was first pastor. The
temporary church was erected, which
served until the present beautiful
church was erected Father Kenny,
Father Christy, now Archbishop
Christy; Father Fitzpatrick (de-
ceased), Father Danahey (deceased),
and Father Dalphin, have been pastors
of St. Stephens Parish. The present
pastor, Rev. J. H. Gaughan, has, since
his appointment to the pastorate of
St. Stephens Parish, remodeled and
beautifed the interior of the church
and erected one of the finest parish
school buildings in Minneapolis. The
school year opened on September 7,
1915. The efforts of Father Gaughan,
in erecting a school for St. Stephens
Parish, has filled long-felt and much
need want in the parish.

ST. CLEMENTS.

ST. Clements Church, located at 241f
avenue and Quincy street, was built
under the direction of Father O'Reilly,
and was attended from St. Anthony
Parish. Later Father Fitzgerald, the
present pastor, was assigned to the
Church of St. Clement, and through
his efforts the new St. Clements
Church, among the best churches in
the city, was erected The parish is
growing rapidly under the direction of
Father Fitzgerald.

ored with places on the state board
are Mrs. D. P. Mcdonald, who was
State Treasurer, Mrs. NJ. A. Willie
sen, member of the State Insurance
Board, and May E. Hammi1l, the pres
ent State Vice President.
The County Presidents who have
guided the affairs of the Auxiliary
in this county from the early days
to the present time are:
Mrs. w. F. Smith, Mrs. J. H. Sui
Ivan, Mrs. J. ]. Holmes, Mrs. D.
McRae, Mrs. Jas. O'Regan, Mrs. A.
Brotherton, Miss May E. Hammill
and the present very efficient Presi-
dent, Mrs. Sara A. Murphy.
The SECOND division in the County
was No. 2 West Duluth, organized by
Mrs. J: H. Sullivan, with Mrs. J. P.
Hamm1ll as charter PRESIDENT Divi-
sion No. 3 at Eveleth was next or
gained by Mrs. ]. J. Holmes, fol-
lowed by No. 4 at Virginia and No. 5
at Hlbblng, both organized by May
E. Hammill, and the last and newest
division, No. E, of the West End,
with Mrs. Sara A. Murphy as organ
izer.
The present membership of the La
dies Auxiliary in the county is near
~ six hundred, and with the Zenith
City and the Range cities growing so
rapidly there is splendid opportunity
to reach the thousand mark. The
members of the Auxiliary all through
the county have been enthusiastic
over the Irish history work, as they
realize that if we fail to take an
interest in this phase of our work
and tail to do it, we are not accom-
pllshlng much for the good of Moth
erland"
None of the divisions of the county
pay a regular sick benefit but many
a sisters heart has been cheered and
many burden lightened by financial
aid from the division or by the chari-
table acts of the individual MEMBERS
Nor have the Catholic children been
forgotten by these daughters of the
Gael IN their charity, as is evidenced
by the fact that wherever a parochial
school is to be built, or an orphans
home to be supported you will find
the members of the Ladies' Auxiliary
III this county nobly doing their share.
Much OF the success of the A. O. II.
and the L. A. at the head of the
Lakes has been due to the sympa-
thetlc interest which our Bishop, the
Rt. Rev. James McGolrick, has al
ways shown in both organizations.
Next, perhaps, in influence is our
County Chaplain, Rev. D. w. Lynch,
himself an enthusiastic Hibernian,
who never misses an opportunity to
say a good word for the Ancient Or
der and its Auxiliary. Altogether,
we feel that we have in St. Louis
County as fine body of Irish men
and women as can be produced in any
county in the state, for what we lack
IN numbers we make up in spirit and
enthusiasm.

it the meaning of religious and social
activity combined, and the religious
spirit of the parish atmosphere under

been well and favorably known
throughout the city.

HIBERNIANS in ST. LOUIS COUNTY.
Written for the Irish Standard by May E. Hamnill,
State Vice President, L. A. A. o. H.

November IS, 1885, is notable
date among Hiberrians of St. Louis
County as it was on that date that
Division No. of Duluth, the first
division of the A. O. H. in the county,
was organized. The meeting was
called by J. ]. Kennedy, state organi-
ger, Of St. Paul, in Hunters Hall, and
1T was there that the start was made
toward the splendid organization
which is now in existence at the
head of the Lakes and on the ranges
to make itself felt in all civic and
social affairs.
The officers elected to govern this
first division we're: Capt. James Far
rell, President; John Murphy, Vice
President; J. C. O'Malley, Recording
Secretary; John Harvey, Financial
Secretary, and Matthew Carroll,
Treasurer. Of the members present
at the first meeting there are now
living only the following: Morgan
Sweeney, John D. Kenna, Thos. Har-
ney, Richard Harvey and James Har-
ney.
The County Presidents have been
NJ. McCabe, John Flood, Patrick Nc
Cabe, F. L. Ryan, A. J. Powers and
the present incum bent, John Simons.
Three of these have served as state
officers, namely: John Flood (de-
ceased) was State Treasurer for two
terms, F. L. Ryan held the office of
State President one term and A. J.
Powers is the present state Vice
President
There are now in St. Louis County
seven divisions, No. l at Duluth, No.
2 Eveleth, No. Hibbing, No. 4 West
Duluth, No. 5 Virginia, No. 6 West
End and No. ! Superior, Wisconsin,
with total membership of about five
hundred.
The Hibernians are always gener-
Gus toward their brothers in sickness
and distress and the members of the
order in St. Louis County have proven
themselves no exception to the rule,
thousands of dollars having been do
mated for sick benefits and other chari-
table purposes. The cause of Catho-
lie education has found ready SUP
port among these brothers; and no
call for aid from the "ould land' has
ever gone unheeded.
The Ladies' Auxiliary, A. O. H.,
came into existence in St. Louis Coun-
" Wnen DIVISION NO. l was organ
lied in Duluth March II, 1895, by
that enthusiastic Hibernian, Brother
John Flood, now deceased. The first
officers of the new division we're:
President, Mrs. w. F. Smith; Vice
President Mrs. J. H. Sullivan; Re-
cording Secretary, Miss Mae Muir
ply; Financial Secretary, Miss NJ.
