In the midst of hard, matter of-fact
buildings on the corner of Third ave-
nue. and Third street, are three build
ings whose mission in that region is for
the spiritual edifcation of the people
yes, and for all of the people. The
edifice of the Church of Immaculate
Conception stands close up to the cor
ner of the two thoroughfares, the
three entrances opening onto Third
avenue. This building was erect
ed in 1878, some four years
after the church was established, for
the organization took place twenty
were years of struggle and the house of
worship was most primitive building.
Father James McGolrick has from the
first been the director in every step of
progress the church has made. The
structure is magnificent one of light
cOlOred limestone, truly Catholic in
every detail. The main auditorium is
of imm ense size, and, though it has no
gallery, is capable of seating about
fifteen hundred people. The walls are
handsomely frescoed with figures rep
resenting Bible legends, and between
the handsome stained glass win
vows naDg une scenes IN Ine
passion and death of Jesus" The
most beautiful of the windows is the
one back of the altar, which is beauti-
fully decorated with natural flowers.
heavy laces and tapers. On either side
of the main altar are smaller ones.
This portion of the church is separated
by railing from the main auditorium,
and within this are very finely. executed
pieces of sculpture. Besides these
large affairs are many smaller ones,
cared for by the different societies.
The substantial brick building stand
ing next to the church structure is
the Association hall, which was
erected in 1887. 1t contains a large
assembly hall and the library of the st.
Vincent de Paul society, and is the
meeting place for the parish societies.
The paroehial school is also held in this
building. This school has about 300
scholars, taught by sisters from Holy
Angels academy. There are bath rooms
and gymnasia in the hall. The other
building is the large residence of the
priests, brick structure with lattice
front and general appearance of COM

SHORT OF FUEL.
Admiral Porter Thinks Our Mem
o1-War Were Out OF Coal.


WASHINGTON, March 31.-The ina
bility of the American vessels to get
out of Apia harbor, and thus avoid
being forced on shore by the
hurricane, was theme of specu-
lation with the naval officers to-day.
Admiral Porter said this evening:
"Fewer lives were lost by the enguIf-
ing of the United States and German
vessels at Samoa than if battle had
been fought for the ownership of the
island. Besides, l regard it as prac-
tically settling the question which
has caused so much dispute regarding
this coral reef, and both govern-
ments have been taught salutary les
son. The hurricane, or whatever it was.
came upon the ships so suddenly, as is
frequently the case in that part of the
world, that neither officers nor men
were able to take any precautions
for safety or escape. Reference has been
made to the effect that the English
man-of-war had steam up, and was
thereby enabled to get out of the way of
the disturbing element. My experience
has been that neither steam nor sail
would avail much IN such storm, and
the probabilities are that the Calliope
was some distance from Apia, headed
for Sydney. There are no explicit rules
laid down by the navy department re-
garding the question of keeping
up steam or the supply of fuel on
board vessel, that being a mat
ter to be decided by its commander, and
the rule might be changed every month,
or every week, according to circum-
stances. There seems, however, to have
been shortage in the supply of coal,
and the recent shipment of that neces-
sary article from Philadelphia will
probably require three months for de-
livery at its destination, for it will have
to go around Cape Horn, and in a sail
ing vessel, too"

SHARE AND SHARE ALIKE.
That Is the Kind of a Division
Davies Wants.

CHICAGO, March 31.-To-night "Par-
son" Davies said that if by any means he
could prevent it there would be no second
meeting between Weir and Murphy.
After the return of the fighters to Chi
cago to-day, it was ascertained that one
of Murphy's left ribs was broken.
Weir, in addition to his injured hands,
has fracture of the jaw, though not
bad one. The ''ParsOn" says that
under the circumstances another fight
beastial. He is willing to divide the
the $1,000 purse equal Y between the
men, declaring they have earned it. In
this case, all bets would virtually be
declared off. Should some such ar
rangement not be made, Davies init
mates that, if forced, he will call on
the police to Jail the, fighters and their
hackers. Murphy and his hackers have
asked that special mention be made
of the fair play accorded them in
every detail. They make the re-
quest in view of the gossip among East
ern sports previous to the match that
be given mighty little show in Chicago.
If the purse of 81 500 is divided equally,
it would mean that each of the fighters
would obtain one-half of the gate re-
ceipts. The purse and the gate receipts
are one and the same thing. The agree
ment was that Manager Dawes should
guarantee prize of $1,000, he to bear
all expenses and to recoup himself hy
the sale of tickets of admission. The
affair was, therefore, practically
contest for the gate receipts, and one
explanation of the listlessness of the
fighters during the last two-thirds of the
contest is that by that time they were
tacitly agreed it would be most agreea-
BILE to make division, share and share
alike, and not injure their future bust
ness by spelling either mans reputa-
ton with a Knockout. The hgh-rollers
who paid the fancy price of S25 to see
finish fight have not been heard from,
and it is not unlikely that some of them
may criticise Referee Myers, who re-

A MAGNIFICENT CHOIR.
1t Is Composed OF Twenty ighA
Male and Female Voices.


Male and Female Voices.
A very able choir composed of twenty.
eight voices, under perfect direction
/ and excellent discipline, furnish the
music for the Church of the Immacu.
| late Conception. The music Is of high
order, the selections being from the
masters, and the words, as is the case
in all the churches of the creed, being
pronounced in Latin. The music that
floats out over the great congregations
| that gather in the auditorium from the
choir gallery and great organ at it's rear.
! is of character peculiar to the Catho-
| lie churches. Their forms of worship,'
| the chants and singing of psalms and
the musical parts of the mass furnishi
| an excellent opportunity for the choraH
| singing, and also for the finer rendition
in solos. Prof. M. S. Baker organized
the choir some eight years ago, andi
under his direction and leadership 1t
has come to its present perfection.
There are few new members in tho
choir, as most of them have suDg to-
gether for years. This. with their COLI
slant practice, has enabled them exc,
cute more difficult music than such
bodies generally undertake. Father,
McGolrick has from the first encouraged
and aided the choir, and they in return
have done all in their power to crafty
his desire for good music in the church.
On special occasions, as Easter and
Christmas, Danz' full orchestra aid in
the music of the church, and the music
from Handel, Mozart and Beethoven ill
the church.
M. Baker came to Minneapolis In,
February, 1880, educated and prepared
to take Congregational church, but as
there was no opening where he could
earn livelihood he took up the trade
of his early life as a machinist, and
coming in contact with Catholic people
adopted their religion as that
for which he had been seeking.
He was made leader of the sachoir
of the Immaculate Conception church
shortly after this and has since held the
position. His wife who is a finished
musician has for over two years acted
as organist Miss Louise Wall is the
leading soprano of the choir having sang
with the choir for the past three years.
Her voice is clear and sweet and vet
so strong as to fill the great room. Miss
Heating, the leading contralto has for
eight years sang in the choir. The old
church walls have grown so used to her
clear bell-like notes that any one else in
her place would seem quite out of
place. Thomas Heating the basso and
Thomas O'Donald the tenor have also
sang for some eight years in the choir.
They, with every other member of the
choir, are first class vocalists and have
grown so used to their places that it
would be impossible to educate others
to fill them in years.

on the Chicago & Atlantic road. The
referee, after the eightieth round. was
obliged to declare the fight off for the
day, u2nd to announce that it would
have to be finished some time before
Tuesday. 1t is extremely doubtful,
however, if the men come together
again, certainly not within that time,
and another draw will have to go on
record. The fight this morning was
most peculiar one. For eighteen rounds
it was as scientific and hard-fougbt
battle as has ever been seen in the prize
ring, but the other sixty-two rounds,
save the siXty-seventh and sixty eighth,
amounted to absolutely nothing. In
not more than ten of them was a blow
struck, and most of the time the men
did not even put their hands up. The
explanation for this act is the fact that
after ten or twelve rounds the Spiders
hands went back on him and he could
do nothing with them. Murphy, who
proved himself a most plucky fighter
and most
wRETcHED GENERAL,
failed to get any advantage out of
Weir'S predlcament, who kept dancing
just out of the English lads reach.
Another thing was that Murphy was in
the better condition. and the great
welts left from each blow showed that
he had not been rubbed" enough, as
Billy Myers put it. The Spider proved
himself much the cleyerer of the two,
and the way in which he sailed into
Murphy during the first few rounds,
smashing him first on one eye than on
the other, then on the nose, and twice
knocking him down with resounding
crack on the neck, convinced many that
:, Hn GerI% Il Ii,
hands held out. There were others,
however. who were loud in their as
SertIOnS that Murphy showed himself
the better man of the two. He certainly
proved himself to be one of the gamest
men that ever entered the ring, and,
with his two eyes almost closed, and in
spite Of having been sent to grass twice,
he rushed his long-limbed antagonist
all over the ring. This was in the early
part of the fight, however. During the
rest of it neither seemed inclined to do
much of anything, and the two men
alternately chaffed and blackguarded
each other, the spectators occasionally
varying the monotony of the proceed
ings by taking hand in the
TALKING MATCH
and urging the fighters to give them
their moneys worth. After round after
round had been fought without blow,
Weir made splendid rally. The sixty
seventh and siXty-eighth were as lively
rs the most bloodthirsty could desire,
and Weir almost had the little fellow
knocked out. The squirt was short
one, however, and the old tactics were
again resumed, under the instruction
of the hackers. When the spectators
saw that nothing could be expected
they soon tired of the show, and the
postponement was really made at the
crowds demand. Weir's hacker acted
very square, and before the rally
repeatedly urged the Spider to go in
and fight even if he got licked.
ParsOn Dawes management of the
affair was excellent, and his arrange
ments were all carried out like clock
work. A special train guarded with
Pinkerton men took the party down and
back. and the crowd was most orderly

Ingram, president of the Empire Lum-

was at the head. The ice gave way
and he disappeared into the water. The
ice began cracking all around the
aperture through which MIR. Carson
had sunk, but the other two men
threw themselves on their faces, and
when Mr.. CarsOn's curly iron hair ap-
peared above the surface they seized it
and pulled him out. Mir. Carson is over
seventy, but after drying his garments
at camp near by, was none the worse
for the shock.

BROTHERHOOD OF HUMANITY
The Principle on Which the Ma

NEW YORK, March 31.-The New
York Nationalist club was organized to-
night. Jonathan Sturgis was elected
chairman and W. c. Semple secretary.
A declaration of principles, similar to
those of the parent society in Boston,
was unanimously adopted. They begin
thus: 1.-THE principle of the brother
hood Of humanity is one of the several
truths that governs the worlds progress
on lines which distinguish human ma
ture from brute nature. The principle
of competition is simply the application
of tue brute law, the survival of the
strongest and most cunning. There
fore, so long as competition continues
to be the ruling faction in our industrial
system. the highest development of the
individual cannot be reached, the loft
lest aims of humanity cannOt be real

the naturalization of industry and
thereby the promotion of the brother
hood of humanity.

Terrible Tragedy Enacted by an
Insane TenneSSeean.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, April l.
James c. Calhoun, prominent in bust
ness, attempted to kill his family and
then himself to-day. He procured a
bottle of muriatic acid and zine. He
attacked his wife by grabbing her by
the throat and striking her three blows
about the head and shoulders with a
'hatchet. He then took his daughter.
Cutting off her ear, he started for his
little boy, who escaped. Taking knife
he cut his throat and swallowed an
ounce and half Of the muriatic acid and
zinc. Calhoun and his wife will prob
ably die. The daughter will recover.
1t is. supposed that he had suddenly

WASHINGTON, March 31.-Secretary
Tracy went to Brooklyn yesterday.
Commodore Walker, chief of the bureau
of navigation, who is acting head of the
department during the secretary's
absence, was not at home this evening.
but it was said at his residence that no
additional information had been re-
ceived in regard to the vessels wrecked
at Samoa. The immediate relatives of
those who lost their lives in the wreck
will be entitled to pensions under the
general law. The pension is Sc. per
month for seaman's widow and SO per
month for each child under sixteen
years of age. In the case of widows of
officers it is proportionately larger.
Parents of the dead persons will have
to prove that they were dependent upon
their sons for support to entitle them to
pensions. Congress will probably also
pass special act making reimburse
ment for the effects and baggage of
officers aud men lost in the wreck. This
was done in the case of the HUI on,
which went down On the Hatteras coast
about fifteen years ago.
