The FEAST OF ST. DOMINIC.
Continued From First Page.)

Spirit had been aiorning and fortifying
his soul. To replace severity with
beni9nitY, to substitute the weapons of
warfare with the preaching of the Cos
pei and to make the hymn of praise
take the place Of the clash of arms may
seem easy in theory but in practice
when mems hearts are steeled in enmity
and their passions are inf1amed now to
lust, now to revenge, it is work posi-
BILE to God alone aud to those angelic
messengers He sends in His name. The
people had been taught to look upon
God as cruel spirit OF evil and there
fore once more they had to be taught to
lcok up to heaven aud say Our Father.
They had been taught that indulgence
10 vice was a service of God, so once
more they had to learn to initiate the
spotless Virgin and to say with pure
love the Hail Mary. The happy inspi-
ration TO insist on these ancient pray
era, to unite with them meditation
on the great mysteries of ChrisJ's life
and death and to have all the people
reclte them in unison came to St.
Dominic in a beautiful vision in which
he seemed to see Mary the Mother Of
God and to receive from her hands the
first rosary. Fire whether kindled from
earth or from heaven is contagious.
Zeal enkindled zeal. A new order
sprang as if by magic into existence
with Dominic at their head, with the
rosary Of Mary in their hands and with
charity burning in their souls they
softened the obdurate hearts OF the way
ward, united Che contending forces and
reclaimed 100000 souls to Christ.
Heaven ratified their work. The Roma Il
Breviary is authority for the statement
that Dominic recalled three persons to
life and performed many other
prodigies by which the order which he
had instituted for one place was propa-
gated in many and became from then
till now g. great force for spreading light

The Liehtning's victims.

ANACONDA, July 19.-The funeral OF
Mr.. and Mrs. f. p. Thomas, who were
killed by lightning Friday night, took
place today, and was probably the largest
and most remarkable ever seen in Deer
Lodge valley. The procession was fully
n and one-half miles long. 1t included
165 carriages, besides men on horseback
and on foot. All the ranchers, with their
families, for any miles around, were
present and almost cvcry conceivable
vehicle was represented. When the pro
cession was about to move from the
house the l~3-year-old daughter tainted,
and everything was delayed for half an
hour, when she recovered. The two
bodies were buried in one grave in the
Anaconda cemetery, the local lodge OF
the A. O. U. w. conducting the service.
The scene was very pathetic and many
of the spectators wept.

ROUGH TREATMENT.


i Preachers House Bombarded with
Bouiders and Bricks.
FINDLAy, o.. July l1.-Last night a
mob in sympathy with the saloons visited
Rev. Reidinger's residence at North
Ridgeville after he and his wife had re
tired and bombarded the house with
boulders and bricks, breaking in the
windows of the lower portion of the
house and otherwise defacing the prop
erty. Several of the bouldcrs landed on
the bed where the reverend gentleman
and wife were accustomed to sleep, but
on this particular night. very fortunate
ly. as it proved. they had retired in an
upstairs room. Had they been down
stairs the results might have been seri-
Gus. Reidinger had been preaching very
strongly in favor of temperance which is
presumably the cause of the brutal out
break. Sobcr-minded citizens of the
town have organized for the protection
of the minister and stormy times are cx-
pected in the village.

THE UPPER MISSOURI.
First Report of Captain Powell on the
Work Done From Great Falls to
Sioux CITY

SlOuN S1ty
WASHINGTON, July II. - Captain
Powell, in charge of the improvement of
the upper Missouri river from Great
Falls, Mont. to Sioux City, Iowa. sub
mits his first report. The work was
formerly under the direction of the Mis-
souri, river commission. but was taken
out Of its hands by the last harbor and
river bill. when 100000 was appropri-
ated through the united efforts of the
delegations from the Dakotas and Mon
tana. During the past year about $780,
600 has been expended. the balance re-
manning available. Upon the extreme
upper portion of the river Captain
Powell appears to have devoted his time
to ~triangulation and surveying, ascer-
tanning levees and making charts. He
hopes by the last of the year to carry
this work to some point below Bismarck,
n. ID. Part of the money has been ex-
pended in building new and repairing
old dredge and snag boats. These boats
are to work principally between Sioux
City and Berthold, $50 miles. The
steamboat landings al Yankton and
Pierre have been badly damaged by the
shifting of the channel. and the object IS
to reclaim them.

New YORK. July 11.-R (. &. Dun Il
Co.'S weekly review of trade says: Bust
ness clearing grows somewhat more ac-
tive though midsummer d~ullness is still
the rule. At eastern cities there is no.
ticed more demand for manufactured
goods with larger sales for materials. At
the west trade is enlivcncd by a large
yield of winter wheat already harvested
and by a very bright outlook for other
crops. At the south, however, though
crop advices are also favorable. no i'm
provemcnt appears in business which is
duller than usual even for the season
and at some points it is pronounced quite
unsatisfactory.
General confidence is strengthened by
financial adyices from Europe which in
dictate that a disturbance of the money
markets from that quarter need not now
be feared. and by a change in the for
eign trade of this country which points
to a material reduction of balances pay
able abroad in specie. Imports at New
York have sharply declined. since July l
amounting TO about St.30S.O0u. or Is per
cent less than for the same week last
year. On the other hand. exports of do
nestle products at this point show an in
crease thus far in this month Of 53,}24.-
600, or nearly A3 per cent in comparison
with the same week last year.
There is a remarkable increase in the
production of pig iron, almost to the UNI
precedented figures of last year. The
sudden increase in production is not in
all respects a favorable symtom. No
corresponding improvement i'll the de
mand for manufactured products is yet
seen and stocks unsold at only part Of
the furnaces are now recorded as amount
ing to about 10000 tons. showing a large
increase. particularly in coke iron. Tn
less the demand rapidly improves the
market must soon weaken SO far as to
test severely the ability Of some con
Germs to continue their production. AL
ready there is a ~pcrceptiblc weakness in
the market at Philadelphia and some
concessions in the price are noticed for
pig iron and for plates. while the market
for structural iron is extremely dull. As
usual of late the demand for rails is
scanty. the market for railroad bonds
being still dull and disappointing. Re
ports from other cities are generally

way recently that he could hardly work.
For hours at a time he has been com
PEELED to rest. He has found it impossi-
bic to get any help, for there was not a
Chinaman in the city who would work
10 minutes for him. Sometimes he
would find a strange Chinaman from

would work for him, but he would leave
as soon as he found what was the matter
with his employer. The case was re-
