DISASTROUS STORM
WRECKS CHURCHES, COLLEGES
AND CHARITABLE INsTlTu-
TIoNs.

The terrific storm which visited
Mobile, Ala, on July 10, played havoc
with church, schools and charitable in
stitutions.
The Boys Orphan Asylum lost its
roof and the Girls Asylum and the
Infants Home and House of the Little
Sisters of the Poor suffered great
damage. The Visitation Convent and
Spring Hill College were badly dam
aged. The entire roof of the new
college building, Quinlan Hall, was
taken off. st. Francis Church, Toul-
minville; ST. John Church, Fish River,
and st. Agnes Church, St. Elmo, were
completely destroyed, together with
st. James, Pritchard. Other churches
were badly wrecked, but can be re-
stored. ....1ss

ST. VINCENT De PAUL SOCIETY

Hutchins, Secretary of the Relief So
ciety, the Hon. John w Willis, Presi-
dent of the Metropolitan Central
Council, Aloysius E. Smith, Secretary
OF st. Michaels parish conference, and
the Most Reverend Archbishop.
Mr.. Stillman maintained that the
city should do its duty towards the
transient by opening a lodging house
built by public funds and operated by
the public in conjunction with char
table organizations. Such an insti-
tuition should provide clean beds, plain
meals, baths and an opportunity for
the applicant to pay for his lodging
by doing some kind of work. He did
not favor the handling of transients
as police problem.
Mr.. Hutchins thought that a free
.lodging-house for vagrants was unde-
sirable unless it was accompanied by
a work test, that is, unless an op-
portunity were provided for those who
would patronize it to pay for meals
and lodging by doing some KIND OF
work.
The other speakers discussed the
problem of housing homeless men
from other points of view, some being
opposed to the municipal lodging
house idea, while others favored it.
The discussion proved very interest
ing and suggestive and was in line
with what the St Vincent de Paul
Society has been considering for some
time. The problem of helping the
down-and-outs without adding to their
number by misplaced charity is one
which the organization has been try
ing to solve and its officers are most
anxious to do something more along
this line during the coming winter
months when the demand upon the
resources of the society is greatest.

KNIGHTS AID SOL DIERS
SPECIAL SUPREME AGENT or
THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
SENT TO MEXICAN BORDER TO
LOOK AFTER THE WELFARE OF
THE SOLDIERS WHO ARE MEM.
BERs OF THE ORDER.

Last week William j. Moriarty, a
Special Supreme Agent of the knights
of Columbus, was authorized by
Supreme Knight Flaherty to proceed
at once to San Antonio, Texas, and
make visitation of all the camps
for United States troops along the
Mexican border and organize meas
ures of relief for the soldiers who
are members of the Knights of Colum-
bus.
The national officers learned that
several thousand members of the Ma
tional Guard from the different states
who are now on the Mexican border
hold membership in the knights Of
Columbus, and an effort will be made
to establish recreation centers in each
camp where the soldiers will be sup
piled with writing materials, books,
ETC., and be given an opportunity to
attend lectures and shows under the
auspices of the Order. Each center
will be in charge of responsible per-
son and placed at the disposal of the
Catholic Chaplain when there is one
in the camp and will be open not
only to Knights of Columbus among
the soldiers, but to any others who
care to patronize them. Several thou
sand dollars have already been taken
out of the special relief fund of the
Order and placed at the disposal of
Mr.. Moriarty to carry out the wishes
of the Supreme Officers.
This matter will be brought before
the National Board at its meeting in
Davenport, Iowa, next Sunday, prior
to the opening of the National Con-
vention in that city on August /,
and, no doubt, further provisions will
be made for the comfort and general
welfare of the troops along the Mex.
lean border.

OF KEARNEY
FOUR COUNTIES DETACHED
FROM OMAHA AND ADDED TO
iTs TERRITORIAL EXTENT
FOURTEEN PRIESTS IN THE
NEW DISTRICT.

BY a decree of Pope Benedict XIV
the counties of Wheeler, Greeley,
Howard, and that portion of Hall,
north OF the Platte river in Nebraska,
have been, detached from the Diocese
of Omaha and added to the territorial
limits of the Diocese Of Kearney over
which the Right Reverend Bishop
Duffy .presides. This change was
made in accordance with a recon-
mendation of the Bishops of the
Province of Dubuque made last Febru-
ary, and will give Bishop Duffy a bet
ter diocese than he formerly had.
The change was announced in a
letter from the Most Reverend Arch
bishop Keane of Dubuque to each OF
the fourteen priests in the territory
affected by the change. They were
summoned to meet at St Mary's
Church, Grand Island, on Tuesday OF
last week when the Arch bishop, acting
for the Apostolic Delegate. put the
decree into effect, and the priests took
the oath of allegiance to their new
Bishop
The district thus added to the Dio
cese of Kearney contains ten parishes
college in charge of the Third Order
Regulars of st. Francis and an acad
emy in charge Of the Dominican Sis
tiers, both at spalding. The Catholic
population affected by the change
amounts to about 5000.
The transfer adds considerably tc
the importance OF the Kearney dio
cess, which now has thirty-eighi
parishes and forty-seven diocesan
priests. There is college for boys
at spaldfng in charge Of a religious
order. two academies for young ladies
one at spafding and one at AIiiancl

Congress. The topics included the Di-
vorce Evil and the Liquor Problem.
Afterwards, perhaps the most note
worthy event, as far as the Indian
missions are concerned, took place.
Bishop Lawler invited all the Indian
missionaries present to a Conference
at which a most interesting series of
talks were given by the assembled
priests. BY unanimous vote, after
several talks, it was agreed upon that
the Indian missions are not in state
to commence to be self-supporting.
This resolution marks the beginning
of new epoch in Indian mission
work Perhaps it is the most note
worthy resolution ever adopted in
any of the various Sioux Congresses.
Much credit for this new view of
things is to be attributed to Bishop
Lawler, who has plunged heart and
soul into the work of redeeming the
Indian. His enthusiasm seems to be
contagious The Missionaries at this
most important meeting were of one
accord that a great step had been
taken. The attitude of the missiona-
ries, it must be remembered, relies
largely on the zeal of the Bishop and
in this instance all could not fail to
note the Apostolic ring in the warm
words of Bishop LAWYERS encourage
ment
Indian Missionaries Present.
The Congress continued Sunday and
Monday with long and serious meet
ings of the Indians and not until Tues
day morning did the Indians finally
bid farewell to Wakpala. Bishop Law
ler left Saturday evening to visit 9TH
er points on the Reservation and to
bless two churches.
Among those present at the Con-
gress were: Father Benedict, o. s..
B., Fort Peck Reservation, Mont;
Father Bernard, o. S. B., Standing
Rock Reservation, N. D.; Father
Slain, S. j., Pine Ridge Reservation,
S. D.; Father Henry, S. j., Rosebud
Reservation, S. D.; Father Francis, O..
S. B., Standing Rock Reservation, N.
D.; Father Vogel, Cheyenne River
Reservation, S. D.. Father Bergs and
Huffer, Lecturers of the Bureau of

with the Bureau; Father Negahnquet,
Sacred Heart Abbey, oklahoma; Faith
er Frei, Lennon, s. ID Father Kipp,
4sasei. ~ D.s Father fisaliOral., 4Iet-
finger, N. b.
Father Vincent, the energetic assist
ant to Father Bernard, had direct
charge of the Congress and to him the
Congress owes it's success. Father
Vincent is a Benedictine Father be-
longing to Conception Abbey, Mis-
souri,.
The Congress after keen competi-
tion voted for Lower Brule Reserya-
ton as the next meeting point. The
vote has not yet received the Rt. Rev.
| Bishops approval.
The Congress, through Bishop Law
Ter, sent cablegram to Pope Benedict
XIV expressing loyalty; and Cardinal
Gasparri, Papal Secretary of State
sent the following reply, in the name
of his August Master: ''The Holy
Father, pleased with the filial homage
of the numerous Indian delegates as
sembled in Congress, lovingly imparts
to them the Apostolic Benediction."
