A "Who" Among Catholic Publications
The tDa^nificat
An Illustrated Monthly Published by the
Sisters of Mercy, and Blessed by
His Holiness, Pope Pius X.
The complimentary notices of the press tell the reason of its rapid
growth in public favor. On the other side of the Atlantic the "Dean
of Iviterary Workers," Rev. Matthew Russell, S. J., tells the readers of
the September Irish Monthly:
An excellent magazine is The Magnificat, which is published at 435
Union Street, Manchester, New Hampshire, U. S. A. It is the neatest maga-
zine we are acquainted with, and only a dollar a year, though of quite stately
dimensions; and its contents are marked by great variety and high literary
merit. Its cheapness is a marvel to us, for we have always understood that
printing is more expensive in the States.
And at home, in the September issue also, the editor of the excellent
Christian Family is kind enough to say:
The Magnificat, published at Manchester, N. H., bids fair to outrank
all its fellows as an ideal Catholic magazine. The Editor seems to have the
rare faculty of gathering around her the sprightliest writers to be found.
There is never a dull page in the entire magazine, and the Book Notes are
real reviews, not a glance at the title and author, and a few general remarks
such as we have come to expect from the generality of reviews. The price is
ridiculously low for such a high-class periodical, being only $1.00 a year.

Dear Miss Curtis:
I am most pleased to learn that your new work, " The American Cath-
olic Who's Who," is soon to be published, and knowing as I do of the
great success your recent admirable work, "Roads to Rome," met with,
I feel sure that this, your latest effort, will be rewarded with the success
it deserves.
I take pleasure in recommending it as a work eminently useful and of
great interest not only to Catholics, but to the public at large.
Most faithfully yours in Xto.,
J. Card. Gibbons,
Archbishop of Baltimore.
EDITOE'S PREFACE.
When the Editor of the A. C. W. W. was a little girl, one of her fa-
vorite books, found in her grandfather's library, was Lodge's Peerage.
For its titles, degrees, dates she cared nothing, but what captivated the
child's imagination was its history; its account of what people had done.
When, in later years, that fascinating biography, the English Catholic
Who's Who, fell into her hands, it recalled the earlier and beloved book.
Therefore it did not seem strange that she should consent, when she was
asked by several ecclesiastics whose opinion she valued, to undertake the
compiling and editing of an American Catholic Who's Who. The only
hesitation on her part was for fear her physical and mental equipment
would not be equal to the task. Viewed in the aggregate it seemed on
too large a scale to be undertaken, but the Editor saw from the beginning
that like all great enterprises the work only needed to be classified and
systematized in order to sim^plify it. A plan was drawn up, carefully
considered, and adhered to step by step throughout a period of twenty-
one months, during which eight thousand Catholics received a notice ask-
ing for their record. Nearly all the sketches finally accepted for publication
were, therefore, obtained at first hand; about one-fourth being received
through Catholic agents in different parts of the country. These records
have been cast, in their essentials, in a certain form, while at the same
time some scope has been allowed for the narrative style, as in the valuable
English Catholic Who's Who; the Editor believing that by so doing the
book would be made more interesting than if it were a mere dry recital
of facts and dates.
Difficulties, obstacles, and disappointments were not lacking as the work
progressed. There were those who thought they saw in it pride, vanity,
and worldliness; others insisted it was to be a mere social register; still
others, who knew they ought not to be left out, refused to go in the book;
a fourth class were those who were utterly indifferent to the whole scheme.
Again and again, through the Catholic press of the country, whose Edi-
tors with only three exceptions lent to the book intelligent comprehen-
EDITOE'S PREFACE
sion and noble support, the Editor of the A. C. "W. W. has stated what
the work is, and what it is not ; that it is designed not to exploit the indi-
vidual as such, but to individualize him in order to show in the concrete —
to each other and to the non-Catholic world — what Catholics have done
and are doing to add to the prestige, dignity, and power of the Church.
In its completed form the book tells of noble effort, of men and women
who have frequently risen from humble beginnings to positions of honor
and influence, of those with a better start in life who have used their
position and talents for the highest purposes; it tells, also, of many an
ancient Catholic lineage on which to look back with gratitude and pride;
of those who have entered the Church, overcoming peril and obstacle. To
the Editor, through whose hands passed all these many records, the work
has been from the first Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam; and it is in this sense
that the work is now launched.
Because it is of the American people, the A. C. W. W. is cosmopolitan.
It embraces diverse types of Americans, and includes a few foreigners who
are our devoted friends. The one question asked, and as far as possible an-
swered throughout the work, has been : " Is this a person whom Catho-
lics, and we may say non-Catholics, will want to know about and ought to
know about ? '^
The Editor wishes first to record her grateful thanks and appreciation
to her friend, collaborator and adviser in this work, Mr. William Stetson
Merrill (A.B., Harvard), of the I^ewberry Library, Chicago, whose judg-
ment, prudence, and business ability went far toward making the work a
success. It was the Editor's desire to name him as co-Editor ; this he posi-
tively declined, on the ground that he had not done enough work and
planning to warrant it; nevertheless, without his staunch support, both
moral and material, the Editor knows it would have been impossible to
carry on her task. Her special thanks are also due to Mr. C. C. Copeland,
and Mr. Charles A. Mair of Chicago, whose generosity and material help
made it possible to carry on the financial part of the work.
There is a long list of those who should be publicly thanked, for encour-
agement and support, and for helping to get names and sketches of people
for the book. Among the Hierarchy and Reverend clergy are: His Emi-
nence Cardinal Gibbons; the Most Reverend Archbishops, Ireland of St.
Paul, Farley of ^NTew York, and Glennon of St. Louis ; the Right Reverend
Bishops Allen of Mobile, Gandgan of Sioux City, and Guertin of Man-

Hon. Joseph A. Chisholm, Mayor of Halifax, who rendered valuable aid

Among foreign contributors the Editor is indebted to Mr. Charles Fisk
Beach and Madame A. Morel, of Paris, to three others in England, Bel-
gium, and Italy, who prefer to remain unknown, and to Messrs. Burns and
Gates, of London.
Since this work was begun, some of the people who sent in their records
have died ; these sketches the Editor decided to publish, with the announce-
ment of the person's decease.
In compiling the clergy list, the Editor felt that the devotion and self
sacrifice of the priesthood entitled them all to mention in the Catholic
Who's Who, but as this was impossible because of their number, and as
they are all listed in the Catholic Directory, it was decided not to go
below the rank of Monsignor and Very Reverend, except where a priest
was an author, educator, scientist, musician, missionary, or had followed

lar parochial duty.
In conclusion the Editor asks that those who note any errors in the
book will correct them; and that all who are interested will send their
own records, or sketches of their friends, for a second edition. The first
edition, full as it is, contains many omissions; these it is hoped will be

supplied after the book is out, and its character and value as a reference
work become known.
All such communications can be sent direct to her or through the pub-
lishers.
To the Catholic public this work is now entrusted by the Editor. If it
meets with a kindly reception her labor will not have been in vain.

HIS HOLINESS POPE PIUS X
JOSEPH SAKTO.
Bishop of Eome; Vicar of Jesus Christ; two hundred and sixty-fourth
successor of St. Peter; Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church; Patri-
arch of the West; Primate of Italy; Archbishop and Metropolitan of the
Eoman Province ; Sovereign of the Temporal Dominions of the Holy Eoman
Church.
B. at Riese, near Venice, June 2, 1835; grandfather was a soldier in
the Papal Army under Pope Gregory XVI. Ed. at Treviso and Padua;
ordained priest September 18, 1858; Chancellor, 1875; Vicar Capitular,
1877; consecrated Bishop of Mantua, November 10, 1884; created Cardinal
and Patriarch of Venice, June 15, 1893 ; his appointment to the patriarchate
gave rise to a dispute with the Italian Government, which claimed the right,
as successor of the Republic of Venice, to nominate the Patriarch; this
claim was not allowed by the Holy See, and the personal qualities of Mon-
signor Sarto finally won over the Government. In the administration of
his important diocese he showed himself a strong and competent prelate,
reforming a number of abuses, and winning the love and veneration of all
his people, especially by his devotion to the poor, and the modesty and sim-
plicity of his life.
On August 4, 1903, he was elected Pope, and five days later was crowned
Supreme Father of the Universal Church. He entered upon his pontificate
with the reputation of being not only a deeply religious man and wise
administrator, but of a learned scholar and friend of the arts. Passion-
ately devoted to music. His Holiness has sought to raise Church music to
the highest plane; it was through him that Don Luigi Perosi, the priest
composer, was first brought to public attention.
Pius X is also Prefect of the Congregation of the Holy Eoman and
Universal Inquisition, or Holy Office of the Consistorial Congregation;
Pro-Eector of the Church and Chapter of S.S. Celsus and Julianus;
Pro-Eector of the whole Order of St. Benedict; of the Order of Friars
Minor; of the Archconfraternities of the Via Crucis; of the Lovers of
Christ and Mary; of the Sacred Stigmata of St. Francis; and of the Order
of Preachers. Eesidence : The Vatican, Eome.

hospital, N. Y. She dwelt in the slums

appalled the stoutest heart. On the
death of her husband, Mrs. Lathrop se-
cured a home on Cherry street. New

for afflicted souls. But so rapidly did
the field of work widen, so many poor
incurables daily turned out of the hos-

Hawthorne in Westchester County, was
secured, and a community under the
Rule of the Third Order of St. Dominic
was formed to aid her in her Christ-like
work. No one is received if he can
afford to pay. This charity is for those
who are pronounced incurable and
turned out of the hospitals, and is

AVERY, Mrs. Martha Gallison (Moore) :
Author, lecturer, educator. Socialist;
convert to the Church; b. April 6, 1851,
in Steuben, Me.; d. of A. K. P. Moore.
Her ancestors were among the pioneer
settlers of Massachusetts, the eastern
portion of which later became the State
of Maine. On her father's side she is
Irish, Scotch and Dutch; on her mother's
she is English. A four-fold stream of
Revolutionary blood flows in her veins,
Major John Moore of Bunker Hill fame
being one of her kinsmen. Prior to the
War of the Rebellion Greneral Samuel
Moore, her grandfather, was a dominant
factor in state politics for half a century.
Ed. at the public schools, she regards her
fifteen years of intellectual discipline
under a master in Cosmic Law as her
most valuable period of study, one that
later led her to the door of the Catholic
Church, which she entered on May 1,
1904, being baptized by Rev. Father
O'Sullivan, S.J., at the Church of the
Immaculate Conception, Boston, Mass.
Mrs. Avery entered public life as a char-
ter member of the First Nationalist Club
of Boston, which was made up of such
distinguished men and women as Rev.
Edward Everett Hale, Mrs. Mary A. Liv-
ermore, etc. Carrying the principles of
the " Nationalization of Industry and
thereby the Promotion of the Brother-
hood of Man " to their logical expression,
Mrs. Avery became a Socialist. For
seven years she was Director of the
Karl Marx class that taught the eco-
nomics of Socialism. Later the class be-
THE AMEKICAN CATHOLIC WHO'S WHO
came known as the Boston School of
Political Economy. Mrs. Moore-Avery
is acknowledged as an authority upon
the philosophy, the history, the economic
theory, and the tactics of International
Socialism, and as a master in the sci-
ence of Political Economy. In an edi-
torial in The Outlook, March 20, 1909,
ex-president Hoosevelt recommends a
book of which Mrs. Moore- Avery is the
author in collaboration with David Gold-
stein, a convert and one of her economic
students, " Socialism: The Nation of
Fatherless Children." During the twelve
years of her membership in the Socialist
parties, Mrs. Avery was constantly in
the lecture field, aiding the cause by
voice and pen, until (in 1903) she was
led to recognize that in the world of
practical matters Socialism is the anti-
Christ, as Modernism is the anti-Christ
in the world of theoretical conception.
One year later she became a member of
the Church. At present she is the head
of the Boston School of Political Econ-
omy, training a group of brilliant young
men to meet the erroneous arguments
and the sophistical statements of So-
cialist propaganda. As a lecturer she is
cited by the press of New York as
being " wonderfully eloquent," and by
that of Massachusetts as " one of the
greatest woman orators of the world."
She is a contributor to the National
Civic Federation Review, to Social Jus-
tice; writes special editorials for The
Boston Traveler; has very near com-
pletion a book entitled " Twenty-five So-
cialists Answered," besides the MS. of a
work on the Primal Principles of Po-
litical Economy. M. in 1880 to Millard

BEDDING, Thomas:
Editor; b. in London, England. Came
to the United States, and now resides
in New York City, where his business
interests lie in that new, interesting,
and (when rightly directed) instructive
entertainment, known as the moving pic-
ture show. Its growth in New York and
the rest of the country has been rapid.
In the great metropolis there are over
five hundred of these places already
(1910) established, and there is every
prospect that the number will be doubled
in the next decade. The business has its
organ, a weekly publication called The
Moving Picture World, of which Mr. Bed-
ding is the editor. It is said on most
reliable authority that the company or
companies financing these shows pay
Mr. Edison $10,000 every week for the
use of one of his inventions necessary to
the successful operation of the pictures.
As this is, of course, only one of the
items of expense, some idea may be
formed of the weekly and annual cost
of this kind of entertainment, which di-
rectly or indirectly afi'ects the manufac-
turers of " animated photographs," as
they are called in the trade, illustrated
songs, lantern lectures, and slide-makers.

the instructors in Catholic schools. From
the first the Archbishops and Bishops
of the United States approved and en-
couraged the work, and the Catholic
teachers were brought together in large
numbers from distant states and from
nearly all the Teaching Orders. She
had as assistants some of the ablest
Catholic teachers in the country — thirty-
two in all formed the faculty. In
places where the attendance warranted
and the Superiors desired, graded in-
stitutes were held. In all cases the in-
stitute was held under the auspices of
the Ordinary of the Diocese. Large in-
stitutes were held in New York City,
in nearly every state in the United
States, and later in Canada. She orig-
inated improved methods of teaching in
the Sunday Schools where the work was
done chiefly by lay teachers. The sub-
ject was taken up at the Catholic Sum-

Christian Doctrine Conferences have been
held nearly every season. Gave talks
and lectures at the Catholic Summer
School; Madison, Wis.; Detroit, Mich.;
and at the Catholic Winter School, New

continue the work because of ill health,
since which time she has only occasion-
ally addressed the institutes. In 1889

Catholic publishers, D. H. McBride &
Co. In January, 1900, appeared the first
number of The Sunday Companion, a

CAMARIILO, Juan E.:
B. April 10, 1870, San Buenaventura;
s. of Juan Camarillo, who emigrated to
California from Mexico in 1834, and be-
came a trader with the Indians between
San Francisco and San Diego, disposing
of their wares and receiving currency
therefor. The hospitable mission fathers
gave him a room in which to lodge, and
there the Indians came and transacted
their business. With the funds thus real-
ized, amounting to about $3,000, he
opened a store in Santa Barbara. He
married Senorita Martina Altagrazia
Herndudez in 1840, and in 1852 moved
to San Buenaventura. Juan Camarillo
was educated at St. Vincent's College,
Cal., and later devoted his attention to
agriculture and business; is one of the
large land owners of California, and
identified in an oflficial capacity with
nearly every banking institution in the
county; is a Director of the First Na-
tional Bank of Ventura, the Home Sav-
ings Bank, and also of the Ojai State
Bank at Nordhoff. Last summer he
deeded to Rt. Rev. Bishop Conaty, for
school purposes, the old Camarillo home-
stead in Buenaventura, and he is now
planning to build near his home at
Camarillo a chapel as a memorial to his
parents. This chapel will be for the
benefit of all Catholics living in that
part of the country. Mr. Camarillo is
a Knight of Columbus, and one of the
leaders of the Order in California; is Past
President of Cabrillo Parlor Native Sons
of the Golden West, a trustee of the Ben.
Prot. Order of Elks of Santa Barbara,
and President of American Latin Union
No. 1. Has made a number of trips to
Rome, and on each occasion was granted
an audience by the Pope. Upon his last
visit, the Holy Father removed from his
head the white silk cap (called the
solideum) which he was wearing, and
presented it to Mr. Camarillo as a
souvenir of his visit. The latter pre-
sented this cap to the Knights of Co-
lumbus, of Oxnard, upon his return
home. His house is much admired for
its beauty, and contains many paintings
and rare curios gathered from all parts
of the world, as well as a collection of
Indian relics, many of them the handi-
work of tribes now extinct. The Indian
Cap of Penance, used to designate an
Indian who had been guilty of crime, is
in this collection. It is made in the
shape of a fool's cap, and from the roots
of an herb, so finely woven into a net,
that it has the appearance of leather.

CAPEL, Right Rev. Mgr. Thomas John:
B. in 1836; ordained by Cardinal Wise-
man, 1858; co-founder of the Training
College for School Masters at Hammer-
smith, London; was its Vice Principal,
1856-60; at the end of the latter year
ill health prevented him from accepting
the proffered principalship. He retired
to Pau in the Pyrenees and here estab-
lished an English speaking mission, of
which he was Chaplain, 1860-68. His
lecture on Bishop Colenso's works, and
on Catholic doctrines attracted the Prot-
estant public; the conversion of Lady
and Miss Duncan, of Mrs. Wave, grand-
daughter of the Bishop of Exeter, of
Miss Wilmot Chetwode the authoress,
and of the Episcopalian clergyman. Rev.
Harrington Moore, made him still more
prominent. With restored health he re-
turned to England and was appointed
to missionary work by Cardinal Man-
ning. December 24, 1868, he received into
THE AMEKICAN CATHOLIC WHO'S WHO
81
the Church the Marquess of Bute in the
Chapel of the Sisters of Notre Dame,
Southwark, in the presence of the Bishop
of the diocese, Right Rev. T. Grant,
an event which gained for him a place
in the pages of Lothair as Mgr. Catesby,
and once by a slip of Disraeli's under
his own name. His sermons and doc-
trinal lectures delivered in London pul-
pits, especially in that of the old Pro-
Cathedral Kensington, and one series in
Rome during the Vatican Council, made
him one of the most widely popular
of preachers. He was named Domestic
Prelate to Pius IX, 1873, in which year
he founded the Catholic Public School,
Kensington. From 1874-78, he was Rec-
tor of the Catholic University College
just established by the Bishops of Eng-
land. As financial support for the latter
Institution could not be obtained, Mon-
signor Capel, having exhausted his own
resources, resigned his position, Car-
dinal Manning writing to him next day:
" I know and bear witness that you have
strained yourself even beyond your
strength." For a while the Catholic Pub-
lic School continued, but was closed at
a later period. In 1883 he came to the
United States, preached and lectured in
the chief cities and at length settled in
California, accepting the Tutorship of
Pio Valensin in the McCauly Valensin
family at Arno, where he makes his
home, but doing missionary work from
the Cathedral of Sacramento as a center.
In England he has published Reply to
Gladstone's Vaticanism, and Ought the
Queen of England to hold Diplomatic Re-
lations with the Pope (both published by
Longmans, Green & Co.) ; Catholic (eight
editions) ; The Pope, the Vicar of Christ

Sang in the Jesuit Church, New York,

in regard to church choirs, since which
time her soprano voice has been heard
in the concert halls of America, Berlin,
London, and the principal towns of Eng-
land, which she, with her sister, Grazia,
toured with Patti in 1907. An Eng-
lish newspaper said of them: The Sig-
nore Carbone make music primarily for
musicians. The quality of her voice was
pronounced pure lyric ecstasy, while her
sister's was spiritual, rich and deep.
Max Bruch, German composer, has as-
sociated the names of the sisters with
the music of religion, by composing for
their voices a duet entitled The Cross,
sung for the first time at Queen's Hall,
London, 1907.

CRAWFORD, Francis Marion:
Novelist; b. 1854, in Tuscany; s. of
Thomas Crawford the sculptor; ed. St.
Paul's School, Concord, I>J. H.; Trinity
College, Cambridge, and at the Roman
University. Spent four years in the East
as a journalist, and edited The Indian
Herald at Allahabad, 1879-80, during
which time he is said to have conceived
the plot for his famous novel, Mr. Isaacs,
first published in 1882. More than thirty
novels followed this first one, showing
Mr. Crawford as a wonderful student of
men and women (and their environment),
in different countries and of different
races. Whether in America, as in The
Three Fates; in England, as in The Tale
of a Lonely Parish; in Germany, as in
Greifenstein, or in his numerous Roman
sketches, Mr. Crawford was equally at
home. There was not a shade of the
Italian character, north or south, that
was not faithfully reproduced by him. In
Ave Roma Immortalis and Salve Venezia
we have a lasting picture, afmost a
THE AMERICAN CATHOLIC WHO'S WHO

classic, of historic Rome, and the Queen
City, Venice. Received into the Cath-
olic Church in 1894, Mr. Crawford
never failed to show by voice and pen,
his profound admiration for the late
Pontiff, Leo XIII. On being asked
shortly before his untimely death in
April, 1909, to write the story of his con-
version for Some Roads to Rome in
America, he, after some hesitation de-
clined, while expressing to the Editor his
deeply abiding conviction of the truth and
claims of the Catholic Church.

to Lincoln Coimty, New Mexico, where
he secured employment on a sheep ranch;
was next a post-trader at Fort Stanton
in Lincoln County, going from there to
Trinidad, Col., thence to Raton, return-
ing to Lincoln County in 1885, when he
entered the employment of James J. Do-
lan, wliolesale and retail merchant, and
became manager of the business; deputy

and Thornton. In April, 1898, at the

Riders, and shortly afterwards was pro-
moted to captain. Upon returning from

estate business at Tularosa, New Mexico,
and upon the creation of Otero County
in March, 1899, was appointed sheriff of

the American troops south of Manila;
stationed at Naic, Cavite upon return;
appointed provost marshal and provost
judge of that district; in June, 1900,

which command he continued until the
regiment was ordered home to be mus-
tered out in 1901; ordered back to the
Camarines, and served on staff of the

ince of Ambos Camarines; on June 30,
1901, was honorably mustered out of the
service as U. S. oflficer, and appointed as
governor of the same province by Gov-

of the city of Manila, where he organized
the first civil police force under the
American government; served in this
position until August, 1902, when he re-
signed to accept the management of

the Spring of 1904 returned to the Phil-
ippines and was appointed governor of
the Province of Isabella by Governor
General Wright, resigning in April, 1905,
to accept the appointment as Governor
of Samar, which was at that time the
most turbulent island in the Philippines,
and which was then causing the Amer-

accepting the governorship of the Island
of Samar, he was given a free hand by
the Governor General and received the
hearty co-operation of the military de-
partment in establishing law and order.

extent that at the expiration of two years
civil government was established and the
people allowed to elect their own officers.

DALY, Arnold (Peter Christopher Ar-

Actor; b. October 4, 1875, in Brooklyn,
N. Y.; s. of Joseph J. and Mary Daly,
natives of Ireland. The parents of George
Bernard Shaw, the Irish playwright, in
whose plays Mr. Daly achieved his most
noteworthy successes, were their intimate
friends. Mr. Daly was educated at the
Academy of the Sacred Heart and St.
Patrick's Academy, Brooklyn. His first
theatrical engagement was as call boy
at the old Lyceum Theater; his first
part that of a butler in a play in which
Fanny Rice was starring; played minor
parts until he came into prominence
through his impersonation of Chambers
in Frank Mayo's production of Pudd'n-
head Wilson. Prior to his taking up the
Shaw plays, Mr. Daly achieved successes
in Because She Loved Him So, The Bird
in the Cage, Barbara Frietche, in which
Julia Marlowe was the star; Self and
Lady, Are You a Mason ? When We Were
Twenty-One, Lady Margaret, Hearts
Aflame, Cynthia, The Girl from Dixie,
and Secret Service. On December 9, 1903,
he produced Shaw's Candida for a single
matinee at the Princess Theater. The
success of both play and actor was so
marked that Mr. Daly and Winchell
Smith formed a partnership to produce
the play at the Berkeley Lyceum. There
Candida ran for more than 150 nights.
Mr. Daly followed it with the Shaw plays,
The Man of Destiny, and How He Lied
to Her Husband, the latter a travesty
on Candida, written by Shaw expressly
for Mr. Daly. The next Shaw production
was You Never Can Tell, which had as
long a run. Then came John Bull's
Other Island. In the fall of 1907 Mr.
Daly founded the Theater of Ideas at the
Berkeley Lyceum, N. Y., playing three
one-act plays there each night. This he
abandoned, and in December, 1907, ap-
peared in a revival of Candida. M. July

DE ROO, Her. P.:
Member of the Archaeological Club of
the Land Van Waes and of the United
States Catholic Historical Society; Hon-
orary member of the American Catholic
Historical Society of Philadelphia.
Father De Roo is best known as the
author of a two-volume work on the
History of America Before Columbus, a
work which he was led to undertake
while engaged in other historical studies
in the Vatican Archives. In his search
for information concerning Pope Alex-
ander VI, he occasionally met with un-
published records having to do with the
religious history of America before the
Spanish discovery, and was induced, in
consequence, to begin the long series of
labors which resulted in the publication
of his history. Father De Roo began his
missionary labors in Oregon nearly forty
years ago, and, in the pursuit of his
priestly duties, traveled much of the
Northwest before the advent of railroads
or any other roads worthy of mention.
In September, 1908, he resigned the pas-
torate of St. Joseph's Church, Portland,
owing to ill-health and advancing years,
and is now retired from active pastoral
work. He has accumulated a large
amount of historical material which has
not yet been prepared for publication.

that there is no white slavery question
in Boston so far as the immigrant Irish
girl is concerned, no matter what her
creed. It is not an exclusive Catholic
society, in fact at the outset no Catholic
was eligible to hold office, but its his-
tory and years and records of work

Director in organizing several important
business enterprises, and Chambers of
Commerce. Prominent in politics almost
from boyhood, he was invited, when only
nineteen years of age, to canvass several
of the northern states in behalf of Gen-
eral Grant, and although he declined this
invitation on account of his youth, and
official duties as private Secretary to the
Governor, he made several speeches in
his own state. He has always been ac-
tive in promoting the extension of pop-
ular education, and the protection of
individual rights against corporate ag-
gression. During his term of office as
a Justice of the Supreme Court, he was
compelled to study the principles of law
and of public policy, but aside from his
Judicial Opinions, perhaps his most im-
portant public utterances were his ad-
dress on Trade Combinations and Strikes
delivered at Catholic Columbian Congress
at Chicago Exposition in 1893, and his
short address against granting alimony
in divorces a vinculo delivered before
the ' Universal Congress of Jurists and
Lawyers at the St. Louis Exposition

DRURY, Rev. Edwin:
Priest, missionary, author; b. June
16, 1845, near Knottsville, Ky. His an-
cestors were among the Catholic settlers
of Maryland in the Seventeenth Cen-
tury. Some of them may have reached
Maryland on the Ark. and the Dove.
His father, Hilary Drury, was bom in
Maryland, 1799, and came to Kentucky
in 1808. His mother, Teresa Coomes,
was born in Kentucky, 1807. His ma-
ternal grandfather, Francis Coomes, after
leaving Maryland, tarried several years
in Virginia and North Carolina, and
came to Kentucky with all his family
about 1795. It is interesting to note
how fruitful the grace of religious voca-
tions has been in this family. Rev. John
Wathen, Rev. Charles I. Coomes, and
Rev. A. A. Aud, were grandsons of Fran-
cis Coomes, and Archbishop Montgomery
of San Francisco was but one degree
farther removed in direct line of descent.
The family is still represented among
the priests of Kentucky by Rev. Edwin
Drury, Rev. Louis H. Spalding, Rev.
Celestine Brey and Rev. Lucien Clements.

GAYNOR, Hon. William J.:
Jurist; Mayor of New York; b. 1851,
at Whitestone, N. Y.; received his early
education at the Assumption Academy,
Utica, N. Y., and through the influence
of Brother Justin, Superior of the acad-
emy, was induced to enter the order of
the Christian Brothers; went to Boston,
taught for one year, then left the Order;
returned home and entered the White-
stone Seminary. After a course of study
there he entered the office of Judge Ward
Hunt, at Utica, N. Y., to study law;
admitted to the bar (1875) ; elected Jus-
tice, Supreme Court of New York, 1893;
re-elected, 1907; fought corruption in
high and low places, and although al-
ways a Democrat, declared himself a bit-
ter foe of the ring power in that party;
secured the conviction for election frauds,
of McKane, a notorious and powerful
boss; Mayor of New York, January,
1910. In August, 1910, an unsuccessful
attempt on the life of Mayor Gaynor
called forth from men of all classes, ir-
respective of party, a magnificent tribute
to his stainless integrity, honor, and
freedom from political corruption. Wil-
liam Travers Jerome, always a scathing
critic, says that he had opposed the elec-
tion of Mr. Gaynor, but he now thought
him one of the best mayors, if not the
best, the city has ever had. The Phila-
delphia Record (Democratic) says that
he has been teaching mayors all over the
country what can be done to break rings,
to oust rascals, and to secure efficiency
and some degree of economy in the pub-
lic service. Some of the reforms of the
Gaynor administration, accomplished in
less than a year, have been: Removal
of the aqueduct board and order to the
new board to wind up the business, sav-
ing in commissioners' and engineers' sal-
aries annually $200,000. One hundred
and twenty engineers, foremen, and la-
borers dismissed from the water depart-
ment, saving annually $185,000. Twenty
heads of bureaus and laborers dismissed

Manhattan, saving annually $80,000.

Park department, saving annually $110,-

with no fixed duty, dismissed from fire

sons dismissed from the department of
buildings aaid offices, saving annually
$20,000. In the highway department
494 men were laid off for the winter
months, saving $100,000. By the reor-
ganization of the bureau of street open-
ings and the abolishment of an anti-
quated system the city will save an-
nually an amount it is impossible to
estimate, but which the Mayor says is
millions. Address: 20 Eighth Ave.,

GERRER, Rev. R. Gregory, O.S.B.:
Artist; b. July 23, 1867, in Lauten-
bach, Elsass, Germany; came to America
four years later with his parents, who
settled first near St. Joseph, Mo., and
then at Bedford, Iowa. Entered the
Benedictine Monastery of the Sacred
Heart, Oklahoma, in 1890; ordained to
the priesthood in St. Mary's Abbey,
Buckfast, England. Gifted with a talent
for painting, his art was cultivated, first
in America, and later his superiors sent
him abroad. He studied mostly in Rome,
under Professor Guiseppe Gonnella, Ciro
Galliazzi, and S. Nobili of the Vatican,
making a special study of the Old Mas-
ters and sketching from nature; leaving
Italy, he traveled through France, Ger-
many, Austria, Switzerland, Greece,
Syria, Palestine, and Egypt. After
completing his studies, and before re-
turning to the United States, he was
accorded the rare privilege of painting
His Holiness Pope Pius X. The por-
trait was received with much favor at
the Vatican and by the art critics at
Rome, and the Holy Father was pleased
to greet Father Gerrer as his priest
artist. A duplicate of this painting was
made for the Vatican (until that time
the only one that had been accepted).
In 1908, Father Gerrer made a nine
months' trip through the West Indies,
Bahama Islands, and Florida, where he
sketched the scenery and fruits of the
tropics. It is his ambition to paint re-
ligious subjects, though up to the pres-
ent time he has confined himself to por-
traits. Some of his paintings that may
be seen in Chicago are portraits of Br.
J. B. Murphy, Dr. Edwards, and S. C.
Scotten; also Judge Clinton Irwin at
Elgin, 111. Address: Sacred Heart Mis-

his presentation of the subject in 1906
and 1907, by public addresses and writ-

it up, resulting in the enactment of the

rying on local work among the colored
people and to maintain Industrial

Contributed to Catholic press for past
30 years on matter particularly relating
to young men's societies and the lay
apostolate. Mr. Harson believes that
as the most potent constructive in-
fluences in the past were, ( 1 ) the princi-
ple of obedience, and (2) the found-
ing of religious communities; so, in
the future, the potent constructive in-
fluences will be, (1) the principle of
co-operation, more especially between
priest and people, and (2) an intelligent
development of social life in connection
with all Church interests. Address:

HOEGAN", Stephen Henry:
Editor, inventor, author, photographer;
b. February 2, 1854, at Norfolk, Va.;
his father was a native of Cork, Ire-
land, and his mother was born in Sligo,
Ireland, though her ancestors came from
the North of England; m. Mary Cath-
erine Cecelia O'Connor, daughter of a
convert. Ed. at the primary schools in
Cork; grammar school in Nyack-on-the-
Hudson; St. Francis Xavier's College,
New York. In 1874 he won in a com-
petition for an expert photographer on
the New York Daily Graphic ; here he
remained until 1884, invented the process
of photo-lithography which was used
there from 1877 until the paper stopped;
also invented, while on the Graphic, a
method of half-tone illustrating which
was used first on March 4, 1881, the
first half-tone in the world to be used
in a newspaper; resigned from the
Graphic to introduce illustrations into
the plate service of the American Press
Association, where it is said he sup-
plied 32,000 illustrations to 10,000 dif-
ferent papers, thus setting the style for
newspaper illustration and also popu-
larizing it; first art editor of the Re-
corder; art editor of the New York
Herald, introducing half-tone engraving
and color illustrating to that paper;
after installing illustrations as a fea-
ture of the Herald he was dismissed by
THE AMEEICAN CATHOLIC WHO'S WHO
295
Mr. Bennett. In 1881 he had invented a
method of applying photography to etch-
ing and steel engraving; many etchings
by Hubert Herkomer, F. S. Church, Rob-
ert Blum, and others, were made by his
process, which he applied in his busi-
ness; resumed newspaper illustrating on
the New York Morning Journal; when
John R. McLean of the Cincinnati En-
quirer bought that paper he taught him
the use of illustrations. About this
time he invented a method of newspaper
illustrating by the three-color process.
In 1896 he went on the New York
Tribune and there invented and patented
a method of using half-tone cuts on
the newspaper which forced other papers
into it until that system of illustrating
has gone around the world; is known
as the Father of half-tone illustrating
on the newspapers. In 1906 he started
a paper in Newark, The Monitor, of
which he was, for a time, managing edi-
tor. Mr. Horgan was granted five pat-
ents for his inventions connected with
the printing press; one invention of his
on which he did not seek a patent, is
used in every illustrated paper in the
world. Since 1895 he has been the edi-
tor of the department of Process En-
graving for the Inland Printer of Chi-
cago. He is an enthusiast on the power
of the press, and has laid plans for a
Catholic daily newspaper in New York.
