COLLEGEVILLE.

The sisters’ dwelling has at last been completed, and they are now living in their new and commodious home. The basketball league is fast forming, and sbon the heated race for the pennant will be engaging: all attention. The rooms on the first floor of the main building, that were formerly occupied by the sisters, have been arranged into class rooms, thus giving anttple space for recitations. Brother who for some time had been bothered with a serious trouble of the throat, has again fully recovered, and as usual is now busy with his manifold duties. Several of the students have not yet returned from their Christmas vacation. Various reasons, and also lack of reasons are given. Some will not return, but the vacancies have been filled by anxious new-comers. The arrival of the storm-glass for the large chapel windows caused no little excitement. It had been long expected and longer delayed. Now there are again some signs of activity about the building, and there are some apparent chances that it will yet be completed. On Sunday last the Athletic Association elected their officials for the second term as follows: G. Hasser, president; A. Berghoff, secretary; R. Carmody, treasurer. The association is in a very prosperous condition both financially and in the possession of superior talent at its disposal for the various teams and contests. Rev. Justjn Henkel, C. PP. S., who for years was the music director at the college, has been transferred from the chaplaincy of St. Elizabeth’s hospital, Chicago, to the pastorate of St. Francis church, Cranberry Prairie, Ohio. t)h his way to his new field of activity he stopped for a short visit with old friends here.
