A week ago two men traveling in an automobile drove up to Aunt Ann home and represented themselves to be U. 5. revenue officers. stating to her that they had been informed that she had ia her possession a dis tilling outfit which the govern ment had ordered them to confis- cate Aunt Ann, without any reluctance whatever, admitted that she owned the property, and proceeded to tell how she acquired same and insisted that she had never operated 1t nor was 1t her intention to ever do so. Further, she invited the men to drive to Huntsville and make inquiry as to her character and reputation as a law-abiding citizen. They promptly assured her that they

When it was mentioned in this paper
of the 9Th. instant that the contractor
had called for but not got the New York
mail by the Guiana on the evening of the
4th., it was not intended to throw fault
on anyone, and least of all on the ener-
getic and obliging postmaster at Fred
eriksted who nevertheless appears t be
understood as the one responsible for
the non-receipt of the Christiansted mail
Wednesday evening. The contractor told
the postmaster here that he had trieo to
bring the mail but that the steamer had
not landed it. 1t ought to be clear TO
everybody that the postmaster at Fred

in Rome for the beatifcation of Ven
cradle Oliver Plunket, will have in
terest for all Irish-Americans. His
Holiness spoke as follows:
Pope Henedict's Words.
1--WE do not marvel at the fact that
the Beatitication of the Venerable
Oliver Plunket has filled with joy the
clergy and people of Ireland, the ever
faithful; and we likewise very will
ingly accept the thanks expressed to
us by most worthy lips, for it has
been our privilege, by raising the il
lustriOus martyr to the honors of the
Blessed, to share in the joy of the
Irish on this occasion.
"Moreover, we attribute to AL
mighty God from whom all blessings
flow the grateful and loyal sentiments
which we see that the Irish harbor
towards us. Verify it was not without
a special decree of Divine Providence
that the BeatificatiOn of the Venerable
Oliver Plunket has been celebrated in
these days. For is not the present
moment one in which Ireland has
most need of help from on high that
she may realize her legitimate desires,
without, however, neglecting any part
of her duties? Most opportunely
therefore, does the Beatification of
the Venerable Oliver Plunket come at
the present moment, for it is to be
hoped that now that he is raised to
the glory of the Blessed he will be a
more powerful intercessor than ever
on behalf of his countrymen.
Most rightly, therefore, are the peo,

PROTESTANTS NOT READY
PROTESTANT SECTS ARE NOT
PREPARED TO INSTRUCT THE
SCHOOL CHILDREN IN NEW
YORK.

The proposal Of the New York
Board of Education that the public
schools of the city be closed at 2
o'clock every Wednesday afternoon,
beginning next September, in order
that the children may be given re-
ligiOus instruction in their respective
creeds, has found the Protestant sects
wholly unprepared, according to the
statements of prominent Protestant
ministers there.
DR.. Henry Sloane Coffin is authority
for the statement that the Protestant
churches are not able to cope with
the situation.
"The Roman Catholics have their
curates and their Sisters, and our Jew
ish friends have their rabbinical
schools said DR.. Coffin at a recent
meeting of the New York Presbytery
"but it will be difficult for us Protes
tants to get trained women to do this
instructing right off the bat"
Immediately upon the announce
ment of the proposal of the Board o.
Education, the Catholic churches o
New York and it's environs announced
their readiness and ability to put the
Wednesday afternoon instruction
classes into operation.

THE HOLY FATHERS ADDRESS

pie of Ireland filled with joy, and we
ourselves feel highly privileged, not
only because, in promulgating the Di-
vine Decree by which Ireland is so
specially honored, we were but an in
strument in the hands of God, but also
because we may now express the hope
that the heavenly patronage of the
Blessed Martyr towards his beloved
Ireland will make itself felt without
delay.
For no one can deny that the vir-
tue which scars along above other
virtues, of which indeed it is the queen,
is charity. But the charity of our
heavenly intercessors is of an orderly
nature. That being so, who does not
know that it is the natural order to
help first those who are nearest to us?
And to what people is the Blessed
Oliver Plunket nearer than to the
people from whom he was born and
for whom he gave up his life? And
that being so we are justified in de-
voutly hoping that the Beatifcation
of the Venerable Oliver Plunket is
the harbinger of happier days for Ire
land.
THAT this may come to pass, we
invoke with all our heart the blessing
of Almighty God, first of all on the
most illustrious Cardinal Archbishop,
Blessed Oliver Plunket's successor in
the See of Armagh, then on the num-
erous Bishops of Ireland accompany
ing the Cardinal, and on the other
Bishops and clerics who are here to-
day, finally on all and every one who
represent the Island, it's associations,
its Institutes and it's churches, in any
manner, and special blessing we in
woke on all our most dear people of
Ireland, with the hope that it will
strive to deserve the title of Most
Faithful Nation not only through the
fame and glory handed down by it's
ancestors, but in fact and in continu-
ance of virtue"

MASONIC MOVE FAILS
MASONs OPPOSE NEW VATICAN
RELATIONS.

The Free Masons had directed those
of their adherents who belong to the
General Councils Department Assem-
blies) to bring to a vote motions op-
posing the resumption of French rela-
tions with the Holy See. Seeing that
the personnel of these assemblies had
not, in it's entirety, undergone the
same change as the Parliament in the
recent elections, the Free Masons
looked forward to quite number OF
Protestations.
Their expectations have failed to
materialize. Out of 80 assemblies
only were found to vote the motions
opposing resumption of relations with
the Vatican. Several others turned
down their motions. Most of them
at last, simply refused to discuss the
proposed motion.
