NO POLITICAL PULL
IN ARMY SELECTIONS
Every Man Promoted Had Pre-
vious Military Experience.

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-Poiitics was
unable to exert any influence on the
appointment of laen to general rank
in the national guard and in the new
national army. It can be said also that
for possible field rank appointments
the army lists today contain the
names of only seyenty-one men out
side Of those in the armed service.
If the army officers have gained no
other victory over civilian influences
this one is enough to justify the serv-
ice in wearing pride's feather.
The sign reads, Politicians need
not apply" but politicians did apply
and had their rejected addresses for
their pains. In the list of the names
of seventy-one men outside of the
present service VINO may be consider
ed for field officer rank there are
some few political pets, but every one
Of the men whose names have been
set down have had previous military
experience, and, according to army
belief, are fitted temperamentally and
by experience for the jobs which they
seek.
1t does not follow at all that be-
cause there are seventy-one names
listed the seventy-one are to be given
preferment. If more than half a doz-
en- of them get commissions at the
outset there will be reason for sur
prise. The chances are that later,
when we must raise bigger armies,
that some hundreds of men somewhat
past the age limit fixed by the regu-
lations will be called upon to serve.
However, not one man who has not
had previous military experience will
be called to the colors. The scandals
of former days are not to be repeated.

AUSTRIAN LINE TREMBLING
Giving Way at Many Points-f0,Oe0
Prisoners Taken.

ROME, ITALY-The great battle on
the Isonzo front continues without in
terruption. The war Office says that
the Austrian line is beginning to bend
and give way at various points. More
than 10000 prisoners had been taken
by Italians in their new offensive. The
Italians, supported by floating and
fixed batteries and monitors, are
marching toward success, which, the
statement. says, is becoming define
ated in spite of undiminished enemy
resistance.

Worst Battle on Isonzo front.

LONDON, ENG-A dispatch from
Copenhagen says that according to re-
ports received from Austria the bat
tie now raging on the Isonzo front Of
the Austro-Itaiian theater is charact-
erized as the most violent ever fought
there. The reports add that it is be-
ieved by the Austrians and Germans
that the Italians are making an at.
tempt to break through to Trieste. A
colossal number of new guns has been
brought into the fight, for which the
Italians had been preparing for weeks.

ST. Cloud: Holy Week is being OBJ
served in the Cathedral, according to
time-honored custom. The Rt. Rev.
Bishop blessed and distributed the
palms on Palm Sunday, while the
Mass was said "c0ram episcopo."
On Maundy Thursday he oficiated,
while all the rubrics were observed
as far as circumstances would permit.
The services on Good Friday and Holy
Saturday were coram episcopo The
evening services on Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday consisted i'll the
singing of the tenebrae, with ser
mon, Holy Hour and Way of the Cross
on the three evenings, respectively.
On Easter Sunday the Ri. Rev. Jo-
seph f, Busch will celebrate Pom
tifical High Mass. His brother, the
Rev. William Busch Of St Paul Sem
mary, will preach the sermon.
A Chapter of the Red Cross Soci-
ETY. was established in St Cloud last
week. A committee on membership
is holding important meetings in
which the arising problems are being
discussed, and the quickest and most
effective means for relief are being
considered. The Ri. Rev. Joseph F.
Busch has been elected as chairman
of the committee.

admirably suited to the parts they
sustained The perfect enunciation
and clear incisive voice of the Mar
rator was beyond criticism. The true,
bell-like quality of the tenor that sang
the parts of Peter, PLATE, the Amelia
and other characters, was most salts
flying both in tone and technique.
But the full, round, mellow, majestic
bass of the Christus, was superb.
Every time it rolled out over the vast
congregation it was greeted with an
intensely reverent silence. Even the
persistent echoes that fingered after
the other voices seemed to hold their
peace in mute admiration. Those
who followed and understood the
words of the Christ could hardly re-
strain their tears at the sound of his
gentle but dignified reproaches.
Though contrary to long established
custom, it cannot be denied that the
position of the singers, namely, facing
the congregation, was a great inn
provement. The reverent, earnest
and dignified expression on their
countenances was sermon in itself
Of the chorus which sang the part
of the Turba it may be said that it
did full justice to the role, dis
eliminating with excellent taste and
judgment, both in tempo and volume,
between the shouts and imprecaticns
of the mob and the sentiments of
awe and wonder expressed at other
times. Throughout their work it was
easy to recognize the careful training
and artistic impress of their director,
Reverend II. NJ. Missia, choirmaster
of st. Paul's Seminary, to whom great
credit is due for the admirable re-
suits obtained.
