SPANISH PREMIER ASSISTS AT

BISHOP.

Spain is indeed a country of con-
trasts. The Premier, Count Roman
ones, who the other day insulted the
Archbishop of Taragona in the Cortes,
has just been seen assisting at the con-
secration of Bishop This prelate
was the popular rector of the Church
of the Immaculate Conception, situated
in the fashionable part Of Madrid
known as Salamanca quarter. Padre
Eustacio Nieto has been raised to the
bishopric of Siguenza, an unusual oc-
currence in Spain, where it is seldom
that a simple parish priest rises direct
ly to the hierarchy. The ceremony of
conservation was performed by the
Archbishop of Valencia, assisted by the
Bishops of Almeira and Salamanca;
and the Count Romanones and his
wife, the former vested in his relig-
ious coat, stood sponsors to the new
prelate. There was large and dis
tinguished gathering at the Church fol
| the ceremony.

CINCINNATI GIRLS GIVE UP LUX
URIES TO DONATE $1,000 TO THE

Three years of self-denial on the
part of the $40 young women of the
Young Ladies' Sodality of st. Xaviers
parish were ended Friday when they
contributed $4,000 to the Good Samar
itan Hospital to endow a bed in that
institution The gift was made
through the Rev. Francis J. Finn, S. J.
Most of the girls in the Organization
indeed, 80 per cent of them-are work
girls, who gave the funds from
their own pockets.
The girls method of raising the
fund was to take advantage of the
Lenten season to place the money
they would otherwise have spent on
amusements into fund. 1t took three
Lenten seasons to complete the sum.
The Young Ladies Sodality will now
devote it's funds to mission work. Ar
rangements are being made for an ad-
dress by the Rev. Thomas Finn, mis-
sionary in British Honduras. The
speaker is not related to Rev. Francis
Finn of literary fame.

Mexican Emissary to Pope
TO SHOW ACTIVITY AGAINST
STABILITY OF REPUBLIC.

An emissary of the Carranza gov
ernment will be sent to Rome to
place before the Vatican evidence pur
porting to show activity against the
government on the part of high mem
bers of the clergy. This is another
adroit move on the part of the willy
chief to give countenance to his per-
secution. The emissary is expected
to arrange for the regulation of Church
matters in Mexico.
Foreign Minister Aguilar said this
week that General Carranza had re-
ceived note from the Pope asking for
the release of Archbishop Jiminez and
the Bishop of Zacatecas, who were
arrested recently at Zacatecas on the
charge of conspiracy against the gov
ernment. AS they already have been
expelled from Mexico, General Car
rama probably will reply to the Pope
with statement as to the measures
taken.
