GAELIC WAS TOO MUCH
FOR HOTEL CLERK

A tall man with clear blue eyes and
wearing the garb Of priest entered
the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New
York City day or so ago and wrote
something on the register. The room
clerk strained his eyes over it, as did
all his deskmates, but they all shook
their heads.
I'm sorry, sir, but l can't read
it," confessed the room clerk.
The priests eyes twinkled. "More's

along. Lee knows all the languages
of Ireland.

began talking with the newcomer in

Easement expedition provided for the

1t is highly probable that the Ger

on the British coast for the purpose
of encouraging the Irish and throw

confusion. How sweeping may be-
come the Irish rebellion depends
largely ON the quantity Of munitions

Self.Styled Bishop Seriously Sick at Mercy Hospital,
Chicago, Makes Statement to Catholic Priest
When he Believed Death Was Near.

consider how my soul stands in it's re-
lation to my God, do freely and of my
own volition, desire to make the fol-
lowing ante mortem statement: l do
firmly believe without reservation or
doubt in all that the One, Holy, Catho-
lie and Apostolic Church believes and
teaches. l believe in the primacy, not
only Of honor but of Jurisdiction of
the Holy Roman Pontiff who resides
in Rome and who is the legitimate

from the one true Church, being led
contrary to my best judgment by pride
and the spirit OF INSTRUMENTATION.

into schism and that have been the

my bad example. realize now, as
face eternity, that l have prostituted

and heresy and return to the one true
fold of Christ. Especially do so ex-
hort those who have been influenced
by my word or example. l have but
one burning desire left, and that is
that God in His Mercy may forgive
me for shining against the light, and
permit me to do penance before it is
too late, and die in peace in the bosom
of our Holy Mother the Church. 1t is
my dying request that my friends pub
fish this statement as widely as pos
sible, in order that l may repair, as
far as can be, the harm that l have
done to myself and others by my
schism and heresy, and by my encour-
aging the same, contrary to the die

Witnesses to this signing, accepting
and approving were:
SIR. MARY HELENA,

But Miraglia had visitors from
among his old schismatic allies,
notably J. R. Vilatte. BY these he
was persuaded to return to his old
quarters in the "archbishop's resi-
dence." Attendants say he was moved
half against his will and still profess
ing his belief in the "one Faith and
one Shepherd" He is, in the doctors
estimation, far from recovery. So, we
must repeat, the last chapter Of this
story can not be written. Yet, should
Miraglia die repentent. or should he
sink back into his error, the insincer.
ity of his hereto belief is attested to
by this recantation of his schismatic
career, made when he thought he was

According to press dispatches, Sir
Roger Easement has been captured
while heading a German expedition
attempting to land arms on the coast
of Ireland. Official announcement of
this fact was made by the admiralty
last night. Sir Roger Easement, be-
fore the outbreak of the European
war, was in the British consular SER
vice, having held posts in Portuguese
West Africa, the Congo Free State,
Haiti, San Domingo and Brazil. In
November, 1914, it was reported that
Sir Roger, who was the leader of the
Separatist faction in Ireland, had gone
to Berlin and conferred with the Ger.
man imperial authorities, his inten-
ton, 1t was said, being to open nego.
tiations between the German govern.
ment and the anti-English party in
ireland. Assurances were said to have
been given to Sir Roger that should
the German troops land in Ireland, all
native institutions would be respected
by them. Sir Rogers followers in
Ireland were, according to the report,
to give every aid to the Germans. The
report of his activities in Germany
created sensation in England, and in
February, 1915, Sir Edward Grey an.
nounced In the House of Commons
that Sir Rogers pension as a former
member of the consular service had
been suspended, pending an investiga
ton of charges of disloyalty against
him. Sir Roger was created a knight
IN 1911. He is So years old.

This is story lacking concluding
chapter. Nevertheless it is not lack
ing moral. Early in March man
waiting for a train on an elevated
platform on the south side of the city,
was stricken with paralysis and hur-
ried Immediately to Mercy hospital,
where his condition was found to be
critical, says New World.
His identity was soon learned. He
proved to be Paul Miraglia, who had
taken to himself the title Of Bishop"
claiming conservation by the hands Of
J. R. Vilatte, schismatic self-styled
Catholic Archbishop" of America.
Miraglia himself, according to the title
given him by the still more recently
and similarly "consecrated" Frederic
Lloyd, American Catholic Bishop of
Illinois," was "Bishop of New York"
The patient at the hospital was at
one time notorious for his antagonism
towards the Catholic Church, though
he claims ordination as Catholic
priest in Italy when he was but %,
thirty-nine years ago. His "consecra-
tion," following wild years, took place
in 1896.
Repentent When at Deaths Door.
Miraglia soon realized his critical
condition and appreciated that he
was close to death, with very poor
chances of recovering. He called for
Catholic priest. The chaplain at the
hospital answered the call and found
a repentent hereto. Miraglia asked
only reinstatement in the Catholic
Church. The chaplain then prepared
brief statement in Latin, embodying
a profession of faith in the One Holy
Catholic and Apostolic Church and an
expression of repentance for error, to
which, on March 8. Miraglia affixed
a cross; his condition was such as to
prevent him signing his full name.
Both his mark and his willingness to
sign the document are attested to by
three witnesses, one the chaplain at
Mercy Hospital, another Catholic
bishop who happened to be present
and the third a nurse.
One week later, March 20, Miraglia
signed another, identical, statement
This time his condition was a little
improved and he was able to write
his Christian name, Paul. This state
ment was likewise witnessed by three
attendants.
A Third Statement.
Still a week later, March %, Mira
glia signed another statement, this
time written in English. He was able
to attach his full signature, which to-
gether with his willingness to sign it,
were attested to by four witnesses.
This document follows:

By Associated Press.
 BALTIMORE, July TO-. - Captain Paul -Kocnig of the Deutschland, en- tered his vessel with customs officials as a commerce carrier and delivered letters to the German embassy. The captain is ready to discharge million dollar cargo of dyestuffs and take on q load of metal and rubber for the re- turn trip.
 Whether he will have his cargo ready by time of departure depends on the vigilance of awaiting enemies. Kocnig announced that the Deutsch- land was the first of fleet being built by the Germans. He expects the com pletion of the Bremen in about eight weeks.
 After a thorough examination. by Federal inspectors, it was agreed that no armament was aboard the Dcutsch- land. The captain and crew then posed for photographs. The captain issued a statement asserting that the trip breaks the British control of the seas. He says he is certain of elud- ing enemy vessels.
 During the entire voyage the Deutschland travelled on the surface. It was submerged but ten hours in the British channel to escape de- stroycrs. The boat left Bremen. June l4th. From there it went to Helgo- land, remaining there nine days. It began its ocean trip June 23rd.
 A representative of the German embassy here presented the personal compliments of the ambassador to the captain and crew. Koenig was the honor guest at a luncheon. He then resumed his account of the voyage. He said that for several weeks the
