' YOUNGlllAN HONCREL
'Father McGavick Appointed Auxili.
ary Bishop of Chicago.
Will Ansist Archbishop Feehan 1n
" Administering the Affairs of the
Archdiocese—Promotion Won
by Signal Success.
Rev. Father Alexander J. MeGavick,
pastor of St. John’s Roman Catholic
,church, Eigtheenth and Clark streets,
Chicago, has received his appointment
as auxiliary bishop to assist Arch-
bishop Feehan, of the diocese of Chi-
cago. The appointment, which does
’not carry the right of succession, was a
complete surprise to Father McGavick,
who had no thought of the honor when
summoned before the archbishop. The
rank of auxiliary‘bishop is something
of a novelty in the Catholic church, as
,there are but three others in this coun-
try—one each in New York, Boston
and Philadelphia.
The duties of the pastorate of St.
John’s church will still be performed
by Father MCGavick, who Will wear the
purple cassock, the insignia of his rank.
while officiatin g at his church. He will
:have considerable extra labor put. on
his shoulders by his new position, how-
ever, as Archbishop Feehan is advanc-
ing in years, and the diocese is a large
one, taking in the northern end of the
state as, far west as the Mississippi and
as far south as Kankakee.
The appointment came in the shape
‘of two documents. They were issued
{from the congregation, of the propa-
ganda at Rome, which has charge of
the affairs of the Roman Catholic
churchin the United States. They were
forwared to Mgr. Mart-inelli at Wash-
ington and then to Archbishop Feehan.
The first paper was an appointment as
bishop; of Marcopolis, which is now a
suppressed see and located in the arch-
bishopric of Odessa, Russia. The other
made him auxiliary bishop, assisting
Archbishop Feehan. It is necessary
for every bishop to have a see, and for
the auxiliaryclass suppressed secs are
used.
In the district which he will be called
on to help supervise are located 210

RT. REV. ALEXANDER M’GAVICK. ,
(Appointed Auxiliary Bishop of the Chi-
cago Archdiocese.) ,
The
priests number 430. _
The date of the consecration has not
been settled, but it probably will take
place after Easter. The ceremony,
which is most impressive, will take‘
place in the cathedral. While not di-
rectly in the line of succession to Arch-
bishop Feehan, Father McGavick prob-5
ably has the best chance for the place.
The coadjutor bishops alone have the
right of succession. _ '
Eighteen months ago Father Mc-
Gavick was appointed to the pastorate
of St. John’s church. , Before that time
he had been with All Saints’ church,
Wallace and Twenty-sixth streets. The
needs of St. John’s called. for a man of
more than ordinary ability, it- being.
one of the largest parishes in the city
and in a poor district. Since his ap-
pointment Father McGavick has paid
off the debt of $8,000, expended $6,000
in improvements on the building, for
which the parish owes not a cent, and
instituted a flourishing Italian Sunday
school. It was because of the singular
success he has attained that the propa-
ganada at. Rome decided on his ad—
vancement. He is a-young man, being
,only 35 years old, and one of the young-
est, if not the youngest, bishop ever ap-
pointed. He was born at Fox Lake, 11].,
and attended the district schools there
for a number of years, later entering
St. Viateur’s college at Kankakee,
where he was ordained. Eleven years
ago he was appointed assistant pastor
under Bishop Dunne, with whom he re-
mained for six years. Four years he.
worked under Father J. O. Gillan as as;
sistant pastor at All Saints’. He had
not long been at this 'church when he
was recognized as a man of ability. It
has been asserted that he is the best
pulpit. orator of the Roman Catholic
clergy of his diocese. While at- All
Saints’ a young men’s lyceum was built
through his efforts.

French Capital.
The Paris'of the pavement, gay,
bright and' exhilarating, is fairly fa-
miliar to us all, but underground Paris,
dark, solitary and damp, extending for
miles, is comparatively unknown. A
part of this area is devoted to cata-
' combs—the rest, a garden still more
vast, provides for the wants, or rather
‘ the luxuries of the living—it is devoted
to mushroom culture.
These subterranean gardens extend
for some 20 miles under the gay capital,
and are from 20 to 160 feet. beneath the,
surface. It is very difiicult to obtain
permission to visit them, and even when

permission is obtained it- requires- some
courage to avail one’s self of it, for the
only entrance is a circular openinglike
the mouth of a well, out of which a long
pole stands; through this pole, fastenedi
at the top only. at fairly long intervals,‘
sticks are thrust. -
An important item in mushroom cul—
ture is fresh air. Airholes are bored:
here and there, beneath which, in many
places, coke fires are lit, which consume
a certain amount of coke every 24
hours; this insures the necessary re-
newal of fresh air.
After the earth has arrived down the
shaft, the underground-gardenersform
it into beds 11/2'feet- wide and high.
To construct these beds evenly' an in-
teresting method is adopted; each
workman. sit-s astride his bed, as if on
horseback, fills his arms With earth and
presses it down between his legs, and
thus they move along the beds with the
jolting motion of a rider.
The most perfect cleanliness has to be .
observed near the beds, which, are
about the same in diameter; they are
covered over with silver sand and a.
whitish clay, and run in parallel lines,
with only a narrow path bet-ween.

Photographing Elévuteu Objects.
Oflicers of the Italian engine-er corps
are making effectual use of the tel—
escopic objective in taking photographs
of objects high above the ground.
Among other things they have been en-
‘abled to discover French batteries in
the Alps, which had not been known
to exist before that, and to make pho-
tographs of their external construction.
The application of the telescopic lenses
for such purposes was demonstrated
for the first time when the. scaffolding
was built on top of the dome of St.
Peter’s in Rome to repair the lightning
rod. Despite the great height, an ex-
cellent photograph was made of the
scaffolding, showing a man in clear de-
tail at the top. -
