GROH. e Roman Catholic .Diocese of | Omaha, over which Archbishop Jere- miah J. Harty has just arrived to pre- | contains, according to the 1916 Official Catholic directory, 80,465 pco ple, 116 parishes, 158 churches, priests, twenty-one clerical students, thirty-cight chapels, four religious or- ders of men, nineteen religious or- ders of women, one university, one agricultrual college, seven academies for young ‘ladics, one orphan asylum, four hospitals, one home for young women, one industrial school, one home for the aged. The diocese comprises seventeen counties, with an area of 14,998 square miles. Last year in this diocese there were iages, 280 conversions, 3,028 baptisms and 957 deaths. There are three Catholic dioceses i Nebraska, those of Omaha, Lin- coln and Kearney. The total Catho- iic population of the state is 142,309, The Omaha diocese was erected October 2, 1885; that of Lincoln, Au- gust 2, 1887, and that of Kcarney, March 8, 1912, Province of ‘Dubuque. These dioceses are a part of the Province of Dubuque, which prov- ince comprises the states of Towa, Ncbraska and Wyoming, and is pre- sided over by Archbishop James J. Kecane of Debuque, Ja. In the United States there are six- teen archbishops and 100 Catholic bishops, besides three cardinals and the apostolic delegate. In the entire world there are four cardinal .bishops, forty-nine cardinals and eight cardinal deacons. Three of the cardinal bishops, seventeen of the cardinals and five of the cardinal deacons are Italians, While the new prelate of Omaha will preside over a bishopric (or dio. cgse) he has the title of archbishop, and this title he will retain. He is the fourth Catholic prelate to have official residence in Omaha. The administration of his three pre- deccessors extended over a period o fifty-cight years. Here Before the War. The first prelate to live here was the Rt. Rev. James O’Gorman, D. D., Vicar-Apostolic of Nebraska, and Titular Bishop of Raphanea. He was consecrated in St. Louis, May 8, 1858, and came here soon afterward, when there were but four priests in the whole state. He died suddenly, July 4, 1874. The Rt. Rev. James O’Connor, D, D., Vicar-Apostolic of Nebraska, and Titular Bishop of Dibona, was con- secrated August 20, 1876. He was the first to hold the title of Bishop of Omaha, which title he received when the Diocese of ®maha was erected, October 2, 1885. He died May 27, 1890. The Rt. Rev. Richard Scannell, D. D., was consecrated Bishop of Cone cordia, November 30, 1887. He was transferred to Omaha following the death of Bishop O’Connor, and was installed Bishop of Omaha, January 30, 1891, He administered the affairs of the Omaha diocese for a quarter of a century, dying January 8 1916, side Fifteen Horses Burned. Holdrege, Neb., Dec. 16.—(Special.) —Chidister’s livery barn was com- pletely destroyed by fire at 1:30 o’clock this morning, burning fifteen head of horses. \ 179 Business Men Find County Poor Farm | Is of Little Value hosoital, | | \ T'he present county county poorhouse, of Douglas county is no good—that is about the sum total of the findings of the city health | and hospitals committee of the Com- | mercial club. The language used by the commit- | tee “The present building | wholly unsuitable for the care of the | insane and those afflicted with tuber- culosis or for taking care of the county poor.” It is the committee’s opinion that | the sick and insane should be cared for in an institution separate and apart |from the work farm. At their last | meeting J. P. Palmer, who was a | member of the last legislature, met | with the committee to discuss the pro- visions of further legislation, which it is proposed to submit to the legis- lature this winter ana which will at least provide for a workhouse and workfarm. Tt is not expected that a ‘wpara(v v and county hospital can be obtained at this time. It is thought, however, that the county poor could be taken care of in a new workhouse and the upper floors of the present county hospital building with some changes used temporarily for hospital purposes. A special committee has been appointed to confer with Mr. Palmer relative to the provisions of the bill mentioned. Guy C. Kiddoo, |representing the city health and hospi- | tals committee; T. F. Sturgess, public | welfare committee, and John A. Rine, the municipal affairs committee, are | the special committee. They will meet with Mr. Palmer during the coming week and will probably be ready to submit their conclusions to the execu- tive committee within the next week !or ten days.
