John Redmond said that if Sir Ed
ward Carson stood by the agreement
as the Nationalists stood by it, they
would, in effect, shake hands on the
floor of the House. The premier, he
said, who only last week announced
that Dublin Castle rule was dead, now
stated his intention of setting up cas-
tie rule again.
The chief secretary for Ireland and
the attorney general, Mr.. Redmond
continued, were the real rulers of Ire.
land. The government, therefore, was
setting up purely Unionist executive
and that was an undoubted outrage on
the feelings of the Irish people.
Mr. Redmond declared that he pro-
tested in the name of the Nationalist
party against such a proposal.

There is no danger to American in

shall we say of the designing man
who, knowing this, would array one
religious denomination against an
other, and who charges any religious
denomination with plan to destroy
American liberty? The charge at once
attracts the attention of the loyal citi-

for all men are credulous, and believ-

years before being transferred to the
pastorate Of st. Patrick's church, Mis-
sissippi and Case streets, St. Paul.
In June, 1898, he was advanced to

Rev. Father Gibbons assumed his last
pastorate, that of the Cathedral.
He had many friends among the
Catholic laiety throughout the coun-
try and when news of his death spread
Sunday scores of messages of con-
dolence and sympathy were received
at the archbishop's residence.
Ills death was so sudden that his
friends found difficulty in believing
the report.
Rev. Father Gibbons was prominent
in charitable and educational activi-

he was president of the diocese school

which owe much to him and his sup

Father Gibbons was entirely
wrapped up in church work and de-
voted Ills lime and means to charity
and tine uplift of humanity.
Everyone who knew Father Glib
bons warmly praised him as priest
who spent his life in the performance
of the everyday duties of his sacred
calling. He was unassuming, kindly
and gentle, but at the same time high
ly efficient in his duties, as is shown
by the prosperous condition of every
charge committed to his care.
More than 5000 people prayed at
the bier of Father Gibbons as the body
lay in state in the Cathedral
The Most Rev. John Ireland, arch.
bishop of the diocese of ST. Paul,
preached the funeral sermon. He ex.
tolled the virtues of the priest, saying
that he was true priest, a priestly

Reverend Thomas ]. Gibbons, vicar
general of the archdiocese of St. Paul
and pastor of the new cathedral, died
iast Sunday morning at $3.50 at St.
Joseph's hospital, of acute infection of
the gall bladder and pancreas.
The news of his death came as a
distinct shock to the people of St. Paul
and Minneapolis because of his recent
good health.
His death followed a hurried oper.
alton at st. Josephs hospital Sat
urday night for acute infection of the
gall bladder. Following the operation
he sank slowly without fully regain
ing consciousness from the ether used
in the operation.
Members of the Cathedral clergy
were present at his bedside when he
died.
The illness of Father Gibbons was
extremely sudden and unexpected. Be-
yond complaining at times of slight
stomach trouble, he had given no in
dication of suffering from gall bladder
trouble.
Saturday noon Father Gibbons
lunched as customary with fellow
priests at his residence, 240 Dayton
avenue. Beyond being trife dispir-
tied by the heat, he appeared to be in
normal condition.
While visiting Archbishop Ireland
Saturday at 2 p. m. he was suddenly
stricken. A consultation of doctors
Immediately was called and an oper-
alton was decided on as the only pos
sible hope of saving Father Gibbons
life
He was taken to St. Joseph's hospi-
tai and the operation began at p. m.
The operation was performed by DR..
w. e. Carroll, assisted by DR.. John
I. Rodgers, DR.. J. c. Staley and DR..
Charles j. Meade. For nearly two
hours Father Gibbons was on the oper-
ating table.
Announcement of his death was
made at masses at the Cathedral, St.
Luke's and other churches and caused
tie deepest grief. While prayers for
the repose of his soul were being said
at the churches, many eyes were
moist. At the Cathedral where he,
full OF strength and vitality, had ap-
peared during the week, the news of
his death was almost unbelievable.
Father Gibbons was one of the most
prominent men in the archdiocese and
he was prominently mentioned as sue
cessor to Rev. John j. Lawler, auxil-
iary bishop of st. Paul, who was trans
fecred to Lead, S. D.
Because of his ability and devotion
to church work and the fact that he
was in the prime of life and of an ex-
ceptionally robust nature, great hopes
were held out for his future in the
church.
Father Gibbons was Sc years old.
He was born at Mount Carmel, Pa,
September s, 1852 His classical
study was begun at St. Vincent col
lege, West Moreland county, Pa. When
19 years old he came to Minnesota,
where he has lived virtually ever
since.
