Brother Frank. OF BuhaIO, Imprisoned
for crime OF which ne Was limo
cent.
BUFFALO, n. Y, September l0.-A sensa-
tionaI development occurred tonight in the
case Of Brother Frank, formerly President
Of St. JoSeph's College, who is now
serving a five years term in state
prison for criminal assault on
little girl named Hattie Carr.
TIE evidence at the trial seemed conclu-
sive, and some Of the details were ye:iied
by the priest when testifying in his own
behalf. So much indignation prevailed
that had he not been convicted be would
never have left the court room alive. The
new turn consists OF attidayits made by
Hattie Carr and her mother. Mrs.
Car says that her daughter
was assaulted by another man,
and that the child was compelled by threats
to identify Brother Frank. Hattie testi6es
that an assault was committed upon her,
and that Brother Frank was innocent. She
describes the culprit but does not know
the name. The case will be laid before
Governor Cleveland, who will be asked ID
pardon the priestly convict

PERCHA Pass, New MEX, September TO-
Ny last letter closed with rather an unfay-
oIable view of our Territory. Although
pleaeed in the mouths OF others, there are
some people who come here and are disap-
pointed. The nuggets of gold aud silver
are not lying on top of the ground ready
for their grasp. Cattle are not found reSdy
fattened for the market, except BY the
rustIer, nor sheep shorn and wool ready
for shipment. Here labor OH.nia vincit holds
as true as anywhere else. Labor conquers
all things.
/; is also true that many come here and
labor and obtain but poor reward. 1t
is so in every other country. 1t is so here.
To any one who has been raised among
the green hills OF the Ohio River Valley
coming here the contrast is very great.
The plains and mountains, mesas aud
valleys are always gray and sun Drowned !;
and II there is any home blood in a man
it begins to rebel as he looks over the face
of the country. Not familiar object
meets Lis eye. The country looks barren,
the people attend to their own business aud
seem unsociable.

other day, in an inquiring way: II reckon

there are single rInchmen in this territory
who have made enough money at postur-

without any disparagement to that
State. A newcomer May be in the

friend did, that cattle would stsrVe il left
