A GOOD BOYS WORK.

He Remains Away From School to do
Charitable Work.
Little Tommy Dunn, the bright 9-year-
old son Of Alderman Dunn, has not at
tended school for the past two days. He
went to church Sunday and in his address
to the congregation Rev. Father Palladino
told the congregation that about eighty
young Indians, all boys, ranging in age
from to II years, had been turned over to
the sisters at st. Peters mission, near Cas-
cade, to be cared for during the winter and
to attend school. The helpless young red
skins we're ill-clad when received at the
mission and many of them were barefooted
and naked. The sisters made an appeal to
those chatitably inclined to forward what
ever cast-o off or secondhand clothing could
be gathered, that it would be very accept
able and would keep the Indian boys warm.
This touched Tommy Dunn's sympathet
ic chord, and early Monday morning he
took his fathers horse and buggy and made
tour of several streets. He stated his mis-
sion and took whatever clothing he could
get and piled it i'll his buggy. He started
out again yesterday and the result of his
days work was the collection of five loads
of secondhand clothing which will be sent
to the needy young Indians at st. Peters
rniasinn
