turn communicate to and discuss the
proceedings from time to time with
others, including the members of Par
lament. We most strenuously object
to any Order that would seek to muz-
zle the country and to prevent news
pares from chronicling outside polit-
ical happenings, or giving publicity to
the views Of individuals on the situa-
ton. Any extension of the Order in
this direction would produce suspicion
and evaporation among the public.
Let the delegates be muZzled; but 9TH
erwise silence must not be imposed
upon the country or the Press. Polit-
ical thought in the country will not
have vanished as soon as the Conven-
ton assemblies. Men will still con-
tinue to discuss Irish public affairs,
and newspapers will insist upon the
right to publish and comment upon
all ordinary political news. Any at
tempt to restrain outside discussion
and comment in the Press, not involv-
ing any disclosure Of the Convention
proceedings, would be justly resented
and resisted as unfair and highland
ed. The situation is too grave and
serious for any interference of that
kind.

Further Particulars and
Details Of Convention

Each day adds it's interesting batch
OF details of preparation for the gath
ering of the 25th. 1t is noteworthy that
these items emanate not from the
Irish newspapers, but from Govern
ment sources at London. The latest
changes and announcements are
noted:
The London Chronicle gives the
following as probable delegates to the
Convention" from Ireland. It will
be noted that the London Chronicle
agrees with the London Daily News,
whose forecast we gave last week,
that DR.. Kelly, Bishop of Ross, will
be delegate as representing the
Irish bishops. DR.. Kelly acted as Sec
rotary of the meeting of bishops in
Maynooth, which selected the dele
gates. The London correspondent of
the Manchester Guardian gave the
same list Of Irish Party delegates as
the London Chronicle:
Roman Charlottesville Bishop of
Down and Conner CDR. Macrory),
Bishop of Killaloe Dr. Fogarty), the
Bishop of Galway CDR. O'Dea), and
the Bishop of Ross CDR. Kelly.

of Armagh CDR. Crozier), Archbishop

WEST HOTEL CAFETERIA.

The new West Hotel Cafeteria, oc.
cupying nine thousand feet of floor
space under the re-modeled hotel
building has already acquired sur
prising degree of popularity with Min
neaDolitans. To the thousands of pat
rons who have already taken advant-
age of it's convenient location it has
proved delightful surprise, by reason
of the quality and quantity of food
at popular prices. The managers and
owners are the Heffernan brothers
Alfred P. and Thomas H.-who with
senior member of the firm, William,
have for more than ten years con-
Quoted two large and popular cafete-
,rias in Chicago.
In the new institution the benefit
of this valuable experience has been
reflected, and it is believed the top
notch has been achieved in point of
handling and service of edi-
bles. Wood has been tabooed in the
equipment, and replaced with steel,
glass and silver, and the cooking is
done by seven expert chefs. A smok.
ing apartment has been set off from
the main dining room for those who
desire the post prandial quiff. 1t is
the aim of the management to supply
freshly cooked and baked viands as
far as may be possible, and to this
end large patronage is the greatest
essential. The management realizes
that it is not the one-time customer,
but the one who comes back" that
is the most important factor in their
success.
The Heffernans enjoy an excellent
reputation in Chicago, William being
the manager of the Chicago Savings
Bank Vault Co. The brothers Alfred
P. and Thomas H., who will remain in
Minneapolis, are members of the
knights of Columbus and other fra
ternal societies.

Through the refusal of the Sim

Dublin and Cork Trades Councils to
send delegates to the Convention, the
membership of that body will be re.

Trades Council have not yet met to
consider the question of representa-

whether or not they will take the
same course as the Dublin and Cork
Councils. Some of the London papers

was favored by the Berlin pitcher. who
gave him three bases on balls.
The fielding feature for Berlin was
contributed by CULLEN, who made a
spectacular one hand catch Off of Emery
in the sixth inning. Berlin played a
strong defensive game. but their attack
on the battery work of Snow Hill lacked
the necessary punch when hits meant
runs. OF the five hits made by Berlin
three were credited TO CULLEN. and two
