1851, has purchased fourteen acre
tract in Overlook which is to be the

which will be $1,OOO,00O, will be
erected on the new site. in Overlook,
according to announcement made by
the Rev. Albert G. Brown, S. j., presi-
dent of the college. Father Brown
declared that the acquisition of the
new site was made necessary because
the present accommodations of the
college have been outgrown by it's en-.
rollment. 1t is expected that within
five years there will be 500 students
in the collegiate department and 1900
in the preparatory school, according to
the college officials.

There are ninety-three Polish re-

given in the "Posener Jageblatt.'
The Poles are we'll organized for
the conserving of Polish ideals and
for the organization of the Polish emf
grafton to the mother country. A Po-
lish central committee, which has the
care of school children, as well as of
widows and orphans, makes it prac-
tice to send the children to Poland
during the holidays. The aim of this
central committee is to prevent the
Germanization of the Polish children.
In sixteen places, Mass is said every
Sunday and in other places on diff
ferent Sundays at intervals of from
three to six weeks. A Catholic Polish
priest, Father Rolewski, has been sta
toned in Westphalia, and many Ger
man priests interest themselves in the
teaching of the Polish language.
Even before the war the German
bishops selected priests for the Polish
population and even made arrange
ments to send the children to Poland
for some time to learn the Polish lam
guage. Lessons in Polish before the
war were given secretly, but now they
are given in many of the smaller Po-
lish schools, and even in the German
schoolrooms There are about one
hundred Polish schools, with 10000
pupils. - "

1t is to the credit of the citizens
Of California that the measure for
he abolition of Catholic and private
schools, for which a petition had been
circulated, has failed to qualify for a
place on the November ballot because
of the lack of a sufficient number of
signatures This initiative petition
was put into circulation some two
months ago and aroused a sporadic in
serest among a certain class of pre-
JUDGED individuals and self-styled
patriotic organizations. A Public
chant for fighting windmills, is still
wasting energy in issuing pamphlets
and vainly endeavoring to persuade a
portion of the populace that the
dangers to the public schools are real
and imminent and that their salvation
lies in constitutional amendment for
compulsory attendance for all children
between the ages of seven and sixteen.
Tuesday, August 8, was the last
lay for the filing of petitions in the
State house, and on that day it was
announced from Sacramento that al
though thirty other initiative meas
ures had qualified for a place on the
BALLOT, and will be submitted to the
electorate in November, the school
petition had failed to find the neces-
sary $4,000 supporters to bring it sue

"Some of our posts have been split,

long friends will hardly speak. We

tend seminaries in the United States,
Canada and Europe. Among them are
the st. Paul Seminary, st. Paul, the
Kenrick Seminary St. Louis, the Mon
treal Seminary. A number will attend
the American College at Rome.
Applications are coming in large
numbers for entrance to St. Mary's
College the coming scholastic year. Ii
these applications continue as at pres
ent, the outlook is that the attendance
at st. Mary's will break all records.
Although one hundred private rooms
have been added to the College in the
new buildings, it now appears that the
capacity of the buildings will be taxed
to the utmost. In few weeks the
authorities of the College declare a
waiting list" will have to be adopted.

for a new church by the parish of the
Sacred Heart. The church was de-
