Rev. Dennis Monahan, M. s. to Work in Texas;
 Rev. F. P. Crane Coming

Rev. Dennis Monahan, M. S., a native of Ireland and former resi- dent of this city, master of novices and superior of the Bloomfield mo- vitiate of the Missionaries of Our Lady of LaSalette, will exchange places with Rev. Francis P. Crane, a native of Scranton, Pa, for seven years pastor and superior of the mission work of the order in the region about Nacogdoches, Texas.
 Father Monahan has been super for at the Bloomfield novitiate al- most as long as Father Crane has been in the missionary order and had 10 years experience with the order before that time.
 The region which Father Mona han will superintend extends over an area of 5000 square miles and contains nine mission churches To- cated in a region inhabited by 8 mixture of Mexican sharecroppers and other farmers, besides a few oil well workers.
 dU1lCI MOlldlld1l WILL pC bcSoC0 do the Sacred Heart church at Nacog- doches and will have the assistance of Rev. Bernard T. Dillon, formerly of Massachusetts and Rev. Eugene Lynch, formerly of Ireland, both of whom were trained at the Bloom field novitiate, Hartford college, and Auburn, N. Y, seminary of the La Salette order.
 The area served by the mission priests is near Galveston. Some of the churches will be reached only once a month by the missionary priests. Each of the priests will trav- el approximately 100 miles day visiting lapsed Mexican Catholics and making converts. A parochial school has recently been established by the order in the base town.
 Many of the families served by the priests are descendants of the original Texas settlers who came into the region led by Gil Y Barbo more than 100 years ago. Father Crane said that the hardest part of the work is to cure the Mexicans of the "manana" tendency of most putting off to tomorrow what could be done today.

St. Lucy's Committee. Pre- sents ''The Great Peter"
 WOIrd-FamOus Thriller

"The Man Who Hangs Himself For a Living" will be the cruious at- traction which will be presented at St. Mary's parish bazaar tonight and during the week on the church grounds on Branch street.
 It's none other than the Great Peters, born Aloysius Peters, for several seasons an outstanding "frightener" of the Ringing Bros. and Barnum 6 Bailey circus per- formance.
 Peter the Great has been per- forming his speciality, 'The Hang mans Noose," for about a quarter of a century, and the added years have given him added impetus and enthusiasm. The man who attempts to hang himself in order that he might live sounds like paradoxical sort of person, but that is what Peters has been doing to earn his livelihood.
 Nevertheless, Peters has more to talk about-that is, other things His rigging is 30 feet high. He starts off by offering a trapeze act, then "upside-down" loop walking, then the fatal" plunge with a rope around his neck.
 He spent two solid years demon- strating his work in Australia, and long periods in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, France, England, Ger many, Latvia, Poland, Spain, Hol- land, Belgium and New Zealand. He has also toured with leading Euro pean circuses including Gleich, Schumann, Busch, Jacoby, D'Hiver, Medrano, irth Bros. and others. In America, he has also appeared with Sells-Floto circus. His previous acts were called Gambling with Death on Chandelier" and "The Man With the Iron Neck"
