A gentleman BY the name Of Nc
Nicholas is the new Roman Catholic
bishop Of Duluth, Minnesota. The
papaf press says he halls from Rome,
Italy. It isn't an Italian name 80
we take It he halls from Rome after
sojourning there long enough to be-
come thoroughly familiar with Just
what the pope expects Of him In Du-
luth. \ Why is II these priests al
ways come from q foreign cline.
Don't they dare trust the native
born with their dirty work?

Teach in English Only

Topeka, Dec. as. NJ. Brewster,
attorney general, In his biennial re-
port to the governor, issued today,
urged that all parochial and private
schools in Kansas be required to
teach all common school branches in
English. The public schools have
always been required to teach in
English and the attorney general
urges that the private and parochial
schools should be required to follow
the same rule.
The attorney general also asks
that where motor cars are found tc
have been used In hauling liquors in
the state that provision be made fol
the sale of the machines.-Kansds

Catholic religion and then look at

are doing to the public schools. IL

"The feast of the Rosary" had its
origin in warning times. The defeat
Of the Albigenses, who were not only
rebels against the doctrines Of the
church, but also q menace to the
state, has been attributed to the
spread Of devotion TO the rosary
through the preaching Of st. Dom
inic.--The Boston Pilot, Oct 10.

ALL HAD TRAGIC HISTORY
Carolina the Last Of Quartet Of Ships
That Seemed to Be Doomed
to Misfortune.

1.-THE sinking Of the Carolina by a
German U.boat removed the last Of
quartet Of ships that have had tragic
history" remarked Brooks Amiss OF
Baltimore, a former resident Of Wash.
ington, at the Willard, according to the
Washington Post. 1.-THE Carolina was
formerly the Grand Duchess, built for
the Plant line In 1896. She made her
first trip from Boston to Halifax and
two years later she was taken over by
the government to be used as trans
port in the Spanish-American war.
Her maiden voyage in the transport
service was from Charleston, S. c.,
carrying a regiment of Wisconsin
troops and high army officers to Porto
Rico.
General Miles a short time before
had been placed in command of the
American army and he left Washing.
ton with members of his staff early in
July. At Charleston General Miles
went on board the Yale, which had
been the City Of Paris Of the Amerl-
can line. He left Gen. Roy Stone of
his staff at Charleston to recruit q
gang Of laborers for the army In Porto
Rico. General Miles proceeded to
Cuba on the Yale and after staying
there few days went to Guanica on
the southern coast of Porto Rico. 1t
was while he was lying in the wonder
full little harbor of Guanica on board
the Cherokee, the Yale being too large
to enter the harbor, that he was Joined
by members Of his staff who had sailed
on the Grand Duchess. The Cherokee,
another Plant liner, took the staff to
Ponce, and among others on that YES
sci was the late Richard Harding Da-
Wis, who had sailed from Cuba on
dispatch boat. The Cherokee arrived
off Ponce the next morning to find that
the city had been taken the previous
day by an ensign Of the navy in a dis
patch yacht.
"A few days later the protocol end
Ing the war was declared and most Of
the members Of the Miles party sailed
back for the States on the OLDHAM,
transport that had been purchased
from the Holland-American line.
1.-THE curious part Of the thing Is
that the Yale was sunk in some man
ner; the OLDHAM ran ashore off the
coast of Cuba while In the transport
service; the Cherokee foundered some
where In the Atlantic and now the
Grand Duchess, rechristened the Caro-
lima, has been sent to the bottom by
q German U-boat." u So.
