The consti- tution was proposed at the last general conference and is being submitted to all annual conferences.

Summons Comes to One Who Labored to Aid the Suffering. ——. Bpecial Dispatch to The Call, BANTA BARBARA, Sept. 14,—Perhaps no more faithful follower of St. Francls ever walked the earth than the quiet, un- assuming Father Aloysius Wiever, who lies dead in the Old Mission to-night at the age of 63. During the years of his life in America, which date from 1858, when he came to this country with Father Hiltermann, he devoted his time almost wholly to the care of the sick and ailing. His first work in the new world was in Teutopolis, Ill., where he spent several years. Later he was transferred to St. louis, Then came the plague of yellow fever at Memphis in 1873, and he took up his abode in the city from which people were fleeing by thousands. He contracted the fever and was pronounced dead at one time, but recoyered. As soon as he was able to be about the streets he was again a famillar figure, administering to every one. He made more sick calls than any other priest in the whole city. In 1878, when the plague broke out again with increased fury, the father was in a Minnesota town, officiating as priest. A dispatch from his superior in Memphis brought him back to the pest-ridden city in August, the plague being at its height. This time twenty-two fellow priests dropped by his side, he being the only Franciscan surviving in the city. When a sick call was announced he was the first to respond. When a priest was stricken he was invariably called to ad- minister the last rites. The people of Memphis called him the ‘“hero of Mem- phis,” a title of esteem he would have worn to the end had he remained there. Never was he known to vaunt his deeds. He was the son of a wealthy German professor in_a royal gymnasium of Ger- many. Vreden was his birthplace. He came to Santa Barbara in 1834 and spent a year in San Francisco, taking treat- ment for his eyes. In 1897 he received a fall while superintending the construction of a wing to the Old Mission here for the use of the college. The injury was be. lieved to be fatal and he was anointed, but lingered on three years, totally help- less, but the most patient of sufferers. The funeral will take place at the mis- slon chapel at 7 o’clock on Monday morn- ing. The remains will be interred in the ancient inclosure in the mission court. - 3 CALL ATLASES WILL SOON BB READY FOR ALL Another carload of Call Premium Atlases left Chicago Thursday, September 12.

Brown, gen- eral manager of the Lake Shore and Michi- gan Southern Railroad, one of the oldest branches of the Vanderbilt system, who is returning East with his family, after an outing at Glenwoed Springs, denfed all knowledge of the reported organization in New York of a new company under one head to control all the Vanderbilt lines.
