SKETCH OF THE INSTITUTION Tke Catholic University of America will be the scene of two events of unusual sig- nificance tomorrow. The first will be the meeting of the board of directors of the university for the purpose of selecting three names from which the pope will choose a successor to Bishop John J. Keane as rector. This meeting has been the sub- ject of so much speculation, and its result is so enveloped in doubt, that nothing can be said in relation to it that has npt al- Teady been hinted or rumored. The meet- ing will be held in the lecture chamber of McMahon Hall in the forenoon, and will be attended by the following directors: Car- dinal Gibbons, archbishop of Baltimore, who is also chancellor of the university; Most Rev. John Joseph Williams, arch- bishop of Boston; Most Rev. Michael Au- gustine Corrigan, archbishop of New York; Most Rey. Patrick John Ryan, archbishop of Philadelphia; Most Rev. John Ireland, archbishop of St. Paul; Most Rev. Placide Louis Chappelle, archbishop of Santa Fe; Right Rev. Camillus Paul Maes, bishop of Covington; Right Rev. John 8. Foley, © ear of Detroit; Right Rev. Ignatius F. lorstmann, bishop of Cleveland; Right Rev. John M. Farley, auxiliary bishop of New York; Rev. Thomas S. Lee, pastor of St. Matthew’s, Washington; Thomas E. Waggaman of Washington, Michael Jen- kins of Baltimore and Joseph Banigan of Providence, R. I. With these are associated ex officio all the archbishops of the United States, as en advisory board of government. There are two vacancies in the board, one being occasioned by the resigna- tion of Bishop Keane and the other by the aeath of Bishop Marty of St. Cloud. Bishop Spalding of Peoria, who ts a director, is in Europe, and therefore will not be pres- ent. All the active members of the board, lay- men as well as churchmen, will have a vote in the selection of the nominees for rector. Bishop Keane's name will not, as has been stated, be one of the three se- lected, as he has, so it is understood, made @ personal request of the directors to take no action of that character. Other than this, nothing whatever is known about the probable action of the directors, and it is also believed that no publicity will be given to their proceed- ings in relation to the rectorship until the announcement comes from Rome itself. Presentation of the Gaelic Chair. The other event will occur in the after- noon, and will be the presentation to the trustees of the Catholic University the sum of $50,000 subscribed by the Ancient Order of Hibernians for the endowment of a chair in the university for the perpetual teaching of Gaelic history and literature, and to be known as tRe Gaelic chair. The national officers of the order, who will ar- rive in this city tonight and be quartered at the Shoreham Hotel as the guests of the District members of the Ancient Order of Hiberaians, are: P. J.

The latter will take fitorium of McMahon Hall at 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and the public will be welcome so far as the limited space wiil permit. At that hour the vi ing delegation will be introduced by the acting rector, Very Rev. Dr. Philip J. Gar- r:gan,who will deliver a speech of welcome. President O'Connor will then present the gift on behalf of the Ancient Order of Hi- bernians, and addresses will be made by other officers of the order, to which Car- dinal Gibbons will respond. He will make a lengthy address. Entertainment of the Visitors. Tomorrow night the visitors will be given @ reception by the local divisions of the or- der at Carroll Hall, and the next day will be spent in visiting points of interest in and about Washington. Mr: Thomas E. Waggaman will invite them to visit his ex- tensive art galleries, and will probably give a reception in their honor. There is no Coubt the delegates will receive a hearty welcome from Washingtonians, being all men of more than local prominence in their particular communities and long connected with the establishment and growth of the organization they represent. The endowment of the chair is regarded as one of the most significant events in the history of advanced education, The fund subscribed for the purpose represents the subscriptions of 75,000 or 80,000 men, most- ly of humble station in life, and many of them untutored beyond the rudiments, and yet they have all contributed to the extent of their means to give this impetus to the progress of higher learning. No other in- stance of this sort has ever been recorded in the history of institutions similar to the Catholic University, and thus it may be properly regarded as remarkable.

The Catholic University entered on the eighth year of its academic life September 23'last. . From 1889 to 1896 its educational activities were confined to the School of Divinity, in which graduate courses in theology were offered to advanced eccles- astical students, and from which have al- ready issved alumni whose learning and acbievements attest the value of the train- ing there received. In 189 the schools of philosophy and the social science were cpened, in whose departments of philoso- y, mathematics, physics, chemistry, bi~ y, technology, sociology, economics, po- lence and law a good number of young men, who had finished their col- legiate courses, matriculated as candidates for the various higher degrees. The Catholic University of America may thus be said to have fairly commerced its work and to have taken the position of a great central college or university in which all arts and sciences will eventually be taught. The educational plan on which the work of the university has been modeled ts intended to afford the largest possible number of individuals the widest oppor- tunity for self-development. The only test for admission to its courses is the mental and moral fitness to undertake them, and it demands no other conditions for its degrees than the attainment of the high scholarship which those degrees imply, and subject to these tests men of all class- es, races and religion are accepted as its students. Schools and Departments. The work of the university is distributed among the three schools of divinity, phi- losephy and the social sciences and the institute of technology. The School of Di- vinity is divided into four departments— the departme: of Biblical sciences, the department of the dogmatic sciences, the department of the moral sciences and the department of the historical sclences. The School of Philosophy is divided into six departments—the department of philosophy proper, the department of letters, the de- partment of mathematics, the department of physics, the department of chemistry and the department of biological sciences. The School of the Social Sciences is di- vided into four departments—the depart- ment of sociology, the department of eco- nomics, the departmeut of political science and the department of law. The Institute of Technology is divided into four depart- ments—the department of applied mathe- matics, the department of civil engineering, the department of electrical engineering and the department of mechanical en- gineering. Each of these departments is under the charge of a professor with such assuciates and assistant professcrs, instructors, lec- turers, etc., as may be found necessary. The Caldwell hall of divinity has up to the present time furnished a residence for the faculty and students of the school of divinity, and for the immediate future will be able to do so, but for the students in the schools of philosophy and socal science # series of dormitories are contemplated, @e of which is in course of completion in the park fronting McMahon hall. s The kuildings contemplated by the uni versity will be eleven in number, not in- cluding dormitories, residences | or sub- ordinate strvctures. The Caldwell hall of d:vinity and the McMahon hall of philoso- phy are the only two so far completed, and their massive magnificence gives an excel- lent idea of what the remaining nine ‘build- ings will be.

Spectal Correspondence of The Evening Star. RICHMOND, Va., October 19, 1896. The strong feeling in the political canvass here 1s now running higher than ever, and many supporters of the two presidential candidates are resorting to personalities so pointed that disagreeable changes are being repeatedly made. A free silver paper recently made the open charge that fol- lowers of the republican and sound money democratic movements here maliciously set fire to a building at the exposition grounds last Thursday night in order to break up the free silver,democratic meeting which was being addressed by Senator Thomas F. Grady of New York: This has been openly denied, and the ‘papér making the charge has been brandéd a ‘malicious libeler” by the editor of another morning paper here. Charges have alse-been made to the effect that a well-known ‘minister of the Gospel in this city had been offered a sum of money to write over hi§ owh signature an article against the freé sllverites. It was stated that the sound thoney democrats had made this effort at bribery. They indignantly deny the charge. ~“These and similar charges give am idea how high political feeling is running daily in this district, and the feeling is rapidly increasing as the election draws near, Bach of the parties is trying hard to strengthen its side by the acquisition of prominent men jn the city. A large num- ber of the most influential citizens of Rich- mond have turned their backs on the Chi- cago platform, and have declared their pur- pese to vote for sound money, either by supporting McKinley or Palmer and Buck- ner. Not since the war has the republican party in Virginia gotten the support of so many prominent citizens. The bankers, real estate people and insurance men are largely for sound money, while a large pro- portion of the manufacturers and mer- chants and the majority of the railroad and transportation men are likewise op- posed to the Chicago platform. It is understood here that Judge James Keith, president of the supreme court of appeals of Virginia, has decided to support the cause-of sound money. It is stated that he will cast his vote for McKinley. Judge Keith was elected to his position as a member of the supreme court by the demo- cratic legislature of 1893-94. It is under- stood that he will say nothing for publica- tion on this subject on account of his posi- tion of judge; but it is understood that his personal views on the currency question are opposed to those adopted by the Chi- cago convention, Quite a sensation will be developed here in political circles this week, which will probably cast a shadow over the nomina- tion of Capt. Lamb for Congress from the third district. It is alleged that in the pri- mary meetings held for the purpose of sending delegates to the third congressional convention to nominate a free silver demo- cratic candidate a miscount was made in one or two prec.ncts, which has of late been straightened out by a recount, and the whole situation 1s consequently changed. The recount would, it is claimed, bring about such a situation as to defeat the election of Ben P. Owen as chairman of the convention, and on this hinges the en- tire result. Owen had the power of ap- pointing certain members on the commit- tee on credentials, who threw out the three or four cont@ting delegates from King William eounty. With H. M. Smith, jr., as chairman, this result would have been dif- ferent. Smith was a supporter of Tazewell Ellett for “renomination, and Mr. Ellett’s ncmination depended entirely upon the con- testing King William delegation, which was unseated by the committee on creden- tials. By the new count these precincts in question are cntitled to an Ellett supporter instead of a Lamb supporter, and this, it is claimed, would put in an Ellett man as chairman of the convention. He would have appointed a different committee on credentials, who would have allowed the King William contesting delegation to be seated. This would have nominated Col. Ellett on the first ballot by a vote of 96 to 91. So the nomination of Capt. Lamb is understcod to be based upon a miscount in one or two of the precincts. It is under- stood that some legal action may be taken in the matter. The whole affair will prob- ably be exposed here this week. At the University of Virginia a meeting of the sound money students was held last week in Jefferson Literary Hall, and a scund money league of nearly 300 members organized. The Jeague will poll a strong yote for Palmer And Buckner on November —————— Not Enough for Two. From Harper’s Rofnd ‘Table. Patrick was the captain of a brick schoon- er that plied betwoen New York and Haver- straw on the Hudson: One day his schoon- er was loaded, réady, to start for New York. But Patrick neyer gave the word to: the ‘Trew to cast off the Hawsers and get under way. Instead, ke sat lazily swinging his leg over the spdkes ‘Of the wheel, smoking his pipe. ab heess The owner ofi;theibrick yard, who was also the owner of the, schooner, seeing that the vessel had mot started and wishing to have the load landed*in New York as soon as possible, rushed down to the dock end irately demanded of Patrick why he did not get under way. “Shure, yer honor, there’s no wind.” “No wind! Why, what's the matter with you? There's Lawson’s schooner under sail, going down the river now.” “Yis, I've been-er watchin’ her, but it’s useless my. gettin’ under wgy. She’s got the wind now, and, faith, theré's not enough of it fer two.” —__—_+es____ A Note From Willie’s Life.

SHOULD BE OF HIGH CHURCH RANK Future Prosperity of the University |: Depends on the Selection. SATOLLI SHOULD NOT DECIDE In all of the speculation heard in town about the selection of a successor to Bishop Keane the note of good will is sounded to- ward the Catholic University. Protestants join with Catholics in this, and are very hearty in what they say. The desire is general that the institution may thrive. This was publicly expressed by men of emi- nence at the Carroll Institute meeting, and the sentiment is constantly echoed in pri- vate conversation among reprcsentative citizens of the District, regardless of creed er party. The university enters into the equipment of Washington as a growing center of education, and as such, with all other such institutions, hac a claim upon the friendly interest of the whole commun- ity. Should Be an American. Another wish quite as generally heard is that the new rector may be an American, in the large and ccmprehensive sense of that word. Not simply an American by birth, but an American by education, by in- stinct, by thorough acquaintance with and affection for the institutions of the coun- try. The Catholic University, it is hel, is, and should remain, an American insti- tution. The young men prepared for their life work there are to administer charges in this country, under the country’s laws, and with all of the opportunities the coun- try affords. Their parishioners will be American citizers. Their whole training, therefore, should be of a nature to bring both them and those who will look to them fcr guidance and instruction into close tyuch with their country and its progress. Bishop Keane's Americanism, it is pointed out, is one of the qualities contributing to one of the most highly respected characters in the Catholic Church on this side of the water. If his successor should not be his equal in that regard, it would necessarily, to a degree, it is thought, militate against both him and the university. High Rank in the Church. There are Catholics as well as Protes- tants who do not accept as altogether sound the reasons given for the report that the new rector is not to be a bishop. They hold rather that he should be a man of eminence both in the church and in the world, the equal in rank at least of the eminent man he fs to succeed. The office is one calling not only for learning in the scholastic sense, but for large executive ability and for experience in the manage- ment of large affairs. His name should stand for as much before the country as it does within the church. It will stand in a measure for the university itself. There are many priests of learning and excel- lence, but, as is suggested, if they have not come to eminence in office in the church work proper, why should the pick for this eee place be confined to their num- r? Any Bixhop Would Take It. It is said that no bishop would care to surrender a life office for one which, ac- cording to the announcement in Bishop Keane's case, may have a new incumbent every few Sears. It is doubted if any bishop would lose anything by giving up the o.e office for the other. Church pro- motions are regulated on lines not unlike those obtaining in political affairs. No man loses anything by obliging the Presi- dent. The late Judge Gresham gave up a life judgeship to go into Mr. Arthur's cab- inet, served there for less than two years, and then was appointed to another life office of higher grade than the one he had surrendered. He then, again, after eight years, gave that office up to go into Mr. Cleveland's cabinet, and had he lived he might have received another promotion. No prelate loses anything by obliging the Pope. The bishop who would at the pope's Tequest accept the rectorship of the Cath. olic University would serve with no anxiety as to his future. If he held the rectorship only two years, a better office would be certain to follow that. His prospects, in. stead of being blue, might be red. A cardi- nal’s hat might await him. The Decision Tomorrow. The opinion has been expressed that to- morrow’s action by the board at the uni- versity in the picking out of three names to be forwarded to Rome will be only a coon that Cardinal Satolli will really name the new rector. Many friends of th 5 versity hope that this may prove sabe erroneous. Cardinal Satolli, however suc- cessful in his mission over here, will not again be a resident of the United States. His future work will be in Europe, and will relate largely to the affairs on that side. But the prelates who will pass on this question tomorrow are citizens of the United States, whose work is here, and whose knowledge of the n2eds of their church in America must far exzeed that of any one in authority abroad. The de- cision properly is theirs, and it ought not te be rejected or tampered with, and it is felt that it cannot be so treated without the result acting adversely on the fortunes ef the university. ———.—__ Hotel Arrivals.

But Another Story Comes Concerning Mr. Bryan and the Stage. Vigorous denial has been made of the report that Candidate William Jennings Bryan, prior to his nomination at Chicago, applied for a position as press agent of a theatrical troupe. A dispatch from Xenia, Ohio, says: “William J. Bryan’s attention was calle to several newspaper reports. One that he had been upon the stage; another stating he had thought ebout going on the stage, and still another that he hed written a criticism of a play, and had applied for a Position as press agent. He said that there was no truth In the report, that he had never been upon the stage, had never writ- ten a criticism of any production, and never applied for any position in conne:- tion with any theatrical company, and had never had any thought of going on the stage, nar had he ever discussed the matter with any one. He said at the time he was repcrted as contemplating the stage he was writing editorials in favor of free silver and delivering lectures upon the subject throughout the country. He looked an the matter with considerable amusement.” A special dispatch from Cleveland tg the Philadelphia Times says: ‘Duncan B. Harrison, the theatrical man- ager, is here today, and in an interview said that William Jennings Bryan had trod the boards in 18%4-’85 with Ada Gray’s company, and had been an indifferent ac‘or at that.

More than that, his every move- ment was the same as that of the Francis Levison in ‘East Lynne’ I saw at Topeka.

The egg was evidently intended for me, but my hen house is under lock and key.” Walbridge himself adds: “As the democratic party is now in‘the throes of political bankruptcy, and as there appears an earnest attempt on the part of the old and discreet democratic leaders to save from the wreck some of its ancient planks. to wit, respect for the federal Supreme Court, sound money, federal authority over mob law, national and individual integrity. let me suggest that the wisest and most effective action would be for these gentle- Tren and their followers to vote for Mc Kinley and Hobart, who now stand for and represent the essential tenets of what they now claim is pure and unadulterated de The business of the consulate shape, and arrangements hav« to place Vice Consul Ge charge during the absencé Thee latter has net yet absence, but it is expect is been made of particular purpose the United States j the one which recei * is that it relates ¢ political situatic Virginia, with a view to his 5 ie nom- ination to Congress from the sixth « The news from that district, whose tral point is Lynchburg, where Ge was collector of internal revenue, is th there is a disposition for a coalition be the republicans and gold democrat which the republicans will wit give the gold democrat a f{ field against the silver man.

Two missionary bishops are to be chosen at the convention of the house of bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church this week. The general convention of the church last year created the missionary dioceses of Asheville, N. C., and Duluth. Rev. A. W. Ryen of St. Paul's Church, Du- Ivth, is the most prominent pastor, and has the largest church in that dioce is likely to be elected bishop. Re Pittenger of Raleigh, N.

Honoring Revolutionary Soldiers. Yesterday afternoon a monument was dedicated by the New Jersey Society of Sons of the American Revolution, on the “old burying ground” at Springfield, N.

There was in attendance representatives of all the patriotic societies in the state, as well as many from New York and other states. There were also present delega- tions from the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Society of Colonial Wars, and the New Jersey Historical Society.
