The following article, contributed
by a prominent Alllnnoe man, In or
much interest:
Word was received here Sunday
noon that Rev. .lame A. Duffy, pas
tor of the Cathedral at Cheyenne,
Wyoming, had been appointed an the
bishop of the new dlonete of Kear
ney, Nebraska, ft. Duffy ban been
at Cheyenne since IHOB, going there
from le Seuer. Minn., where he had
been pastor for several years, prev
ious to which time he was asa4sts.nl
pastor of a church at Minneapolis.
Ft. Duffy is the youngest bishop in
the United States, being only .18
years old. He Is most highly spoken
of by all who know him and the
choice Is most favorably commented
on In religious circles. The new
diocese comprises practically those in
the Sixth Congressional district. As
soon as the news began to be learn
ed of the new appointment a move
ment was started by clrlrens, Irre
spective of religious belief, to en
deavor to persuade Ft. Duffy to
transfer his residence to Alliance.
A this city has the only Catholic
academy and the only Catholic hos
pital in the new diocese, and bedf
has the largistr and best equipped
church in the See, as well as a corn
modioli residence and other church
properly, It was believed that upon
proper presentation of these facts to
Fr. Duffy and examination by him
of the conditions, this might.be ac
complished. The following telegrams
were sent congratulating the rever
end gentlemnn upon hie appointment:
"Alliance, Nebr., Jan 27, 1913.

Join in the request to the u w
bishop and expressed himself .is
favoring very strongly the idea of
Setting him to live in Alliance and
seemed to think there was an e 1
ltnt (haute of prevailing upon him
o do so. The comnilttee expPCtl to
leave here Saturday noon. If aWtts
factory arrangements can be made.
Herewith In shown a drawing of
the plans which are approved by the
Alliance school board fur the new
Central School building It will be
noted that the building a prooned
will be of very beautiful deslan and
one that will be a credit to the city.
The outside of the building, a cord
ing to the plans, will be fa-ed with
Kdm uiont shale brick
It Is planned to have twelve
cIrhb MOM on the find nnd second
floors of the building, in addition to
which will be the principal's office
and library. One of the rooms will
be very large and used for an as
sembly IkiII on the second floor. In
the basement will be located the
bo.VH' and girls' toilets, domestic sci
ence and manual training class
rooms, manual training supply room
for tools and lumber, storage room
for books, and Janitor's quartets. The
boiler and fuel room will be entirely
separate from the main hulling ami
separated by a brick wall, tuerefore
grfatly leFf-fnlng the danger of fire
from that source
In planning the building (he future
has been thought of and It is planned
to care for the pupils for a number
of years to come, on account of the
fact that after the ecming election
has been held and the proposed bond
Issue voted it will be Impossible to
vote h.mds again for a number of
year. The future of Alliance school
children should be eared for by erect
ing a building of this nature, which
will amply house fion pupils com
fortably. It In fanned to make the building
as nearly fireproof as possible. The
approximate cost of a building of this
1 kind will be $.15,000.
