ARCHBISHOP OF DUBLIN
AUXILIARY TO LATE HEAD OF DI.
ocEsE is APPoINTED-WAs ED.
UCATED IN ROME-NEW ARCH
BISHOP OF DUBLIN TAKEN
FROM cURATE BODY.

Right Rev. DR.. Byrne has been ap-
pointed successor to the late Archbish-
op Walsh of Dublin. The new Arch
bishop is only 40 years of age. He
has been raised from the Curacy to
the prelacy. Within living memory
only two other Curates have been
elected directly to the episcopate,
namely, the late Bishop O'Dwyer and
the late Bishop Mccormack.
Archbishop Byrne is a native of Dub
lin. He received his early education
at Belvedere College, Dublin, conduct
ed by the Jesuits. There he carried
off one of the few first class exhibit
tons awarded in those days by the In
termediate Board of Education. From
Belvedere he passed to Holy Cross
College, Clonliffe. There, also, he won
many prizes and distinctions. In 1891,
he graduated with honors in the for
mer Royal University. In 1892, he
went to the Irish College, Rome, where
he completed his theological studies.
After his ordination in 1895, he return
ed to Ireland and served successfully
as Citrate in four parishes in the Arch
diocese of Dublin. In 1901, he was ap-
pointed vice-Rector of the Irish Col
lege, Rome.
When the term of his appointment
came to an end he was, at his own re-
quest, brought back to Dublin. Arch
bishop Walsh then gave him a Curacy
in the Pro-Cathedral, where he minis
tered for sixteen years until his APP
pointment last year as Auxiliary to
Archbishop Walsh.

DISGRACE THE FLAG
kU klUx KHAN TRY TO MONOPO-
LIE STARS AND STRIPES
kLAN'S WARNING TO FATHER
kIRWlN.

A warning has been received by
Very Reverend J. M. Kirwin, V. G.,
Galveston, Texas, as a result of Fa-
Their klrwin's recent refusal to salute
an American flag which had been Civ
en- Houston organization by the Ku
klux Khan. This warning was to the
effect that on his next visit to Hous-
ton, Father Kirwin would be compelled
by the Khan to salute their flag, on the
corner of Main and Mckinney streets.
Houston, where the flag incident oc.
Cured, is fifty miles from Galveston.
According to the Galveston Tribune,
Father Kirwin stated that there
is ahead of the American flag
in his heart and mind the sym
Dol of his church, the cross; but that
he does not take off his hat to every
telegraph pole although the cross SYM
boil is in evidence, because the tele-
graph and telephone companies use the
cross-arm to carry through messages,
and so when bigotry and prejudice
make a fag-pole carry their message
of religious hatred he does not bare
his head. 81 will salute the flag upon
a Masonic Temple or a Methodist
church, or even when carried in the
open by bunch .of A. P. AS. I will
never salute it in the hands of mask
ed man."
Of Patriotic Stock.
The Galveston Tribune observes edi.
torially that cit were we'll that these
threatening individuals be informed as
to the patriotism of the gentlemen
about whom they are so much con.
cerned. Coming from stock who fought
under the flag in 81, Father Kirwin
inherited deeper love for his coun.
try than his attempted prosecutors
dare boast"
