in Alaska presents one of the in- tory's American career. When Alaska became the property of the United States in 1867 it was by the Holy See a part of the diocese of Vancouver Island (now Vic toria) and was several times visit ed by Bishop Seghers, then by his successor Bishop J. B. Beonwel
 Before 1878 Wrangell and Sit ka were visited occasionally by priests from Victoria. On Novem- Der 23. 1878. F. J. Althoif was ap- pointed first resident priest on May 3, 1879, he established himself in Wrangell. On July IT, 1882, he held services for the first time in Juneau, and in the late fall of 1886 he brought the Sisters of St. Ann thither and established the hospital and later on the school. The pioneer sisters of those heroic days is still amongst us.
 On July IS. 1886, Archbishop Seghers, F. P. Fosi. H. A. Robant, IS. J.,, left Victoria, and passing through Juneau went to establish the first Catholic mission on the Yukon
 On July 27, 1894. a decree of the Sovereign Pontiff separated Alaska and the Aleutian islands from the Jurisdiction of the Bish- op of Vancouver Island, and made
 that Territory a separate admin lstrative district to be governed by a priest invested with Episcopal Jurisdiction, and nominated a Pre- feet Apostilic.
 Father Pascal Tosi was the first incumbent. He was succeeded by Father J. B. Rene. March 16, 1897, The third incumbent, Father R. J Crimont. took mp the office on

of the Catholic Church's work Witt in her borders, and in view of its greater future, the Holy Father raised the Prefecture to the rank of Vicariate, henceforth to be gov erned by a bishop.
 In a consistory held in the Vati- can Palace on March 22, 1917, Pope Benedict XV proclaimed the Very Reverend R. J. Crimont, titu- lar bishop of Ammeldera and Vicar Apostolic of Alaska
 Bishop Crimont's Career.
 That the Bishop-elect is emi- nently well-fitted for the post, a brief sketch of his life will show.
 Born in 1859 in Picardy, France, he left home when about ten years old for the Jesuit College of Amiens. He entered the Society of Jesus in 1875 at St. Achcul, and there underwent the usual two years of spiritual training and two years review of literary stu dies. Then came three years of pIiiOoOpDy.
 This long stretch of study was broken by an ocean voyage; for the missionary spirit had touched the young student and he had vol unteered for the Indian missions of our now great Northwest. Ac- cordingly he came in 1886 to Woodstock, Maryland. After two years of theology he was there or dained d priest by Cardinal Gib- bons, and spent two more years in completing his course of divin- ity.
 Several years of missionary ac- tivity, particularly among the Crow Indians, served as train ing for more arduous work in Alaska, where we find him sta toned from 1895 until his call to the presidency of Gonzoga in Oc- tober, 1901.
 The historian of Gongoza re- lates that under the direction of Fr. Crimont the college made a marked advance, in scholarship as the classical programs of those days indicate.-in number of stu dents, and in official standing, for upon him, first of all the presi dents of Gonzaga, was conferred the title of Rector Even ma terially "Old Gonzaga" had just begun to expand, when in May 1904, the kindly rector was or dered to Alaska to succeed Fr. J. E. Rene, as Prefect Apostolic. Spokesman's Tribute. v The Spokane Spokesman Review paid the retiring president this me tribute at the time:
 Father Crimont has just re. celVed an appointment from Rome as Prefect Apostolic of Alaska ana plunges into the land of the midnight sun in obediance to tht orders of the great Roman heir. archy of which he is now mart This gentle Frenchman. now ir his 45th year, has received so lib eral an education and so fine 2

culture as to fit him admirably for the direction of Gonzaga. Un- der his scholarly touch it has grown until it aims at nothing less than to be the University of the Northwest. During his stay here for three years funds have been raised and work started on the quarter of million dollar addition which is to be another link in a magnificent chain of col lege structures"
 So all these thirteen years, Fr. Crimont has been working quietly for Eskimo and white "in the land of the midnight sum-
 Catholic Papers Comment.
 The Catholic Northwest Prog ress, of Seattle, contains the fol- lowing:
 ''The Prefect Apostolic of Alaska -now the Vicariate Apostolic comprises Alaska Territory and the Aleutian islands. The district is administered by twenty-two priests of the Society of Jesus. There are, moreover, ten lay Brothers of the Society and AZ Sisters of var ious orders who conduct six hos pitals, four boarding schools, five day schools and an orphanage. The number of children cared for in these institutions totals 428.
 Many believed the time ripe and it took little to convince them that the Holy Father had acted.
 Now the time is ripe indeed Stewards dream-fantastic as the Northern lights it seemed in '67, is realized So, as befits the present development of the land and it's great future-the Holy Father wills to confer on his rep resentative fuller powers and amp Ter dignity.
 The Catholics of the Northwest congratulate their brothers of Alaska-Indian, Eskimo and white on the honor done them in the person of their well-loved father" "
