too much-more than their services

Villa Maria Convent Opened Under Pleas
ant Auspices.

About Is years ago there was estab'
lished in Lake City, five miles below
Frontenac, convent Of Ursuline sisters
Ever since the start this convent has
been exceptionally prosperous and as a
great portion Of the people OF Lake
City and vicinity are OF the Catholic
faith the school at this convent has been
we'll patronjzed, necessitating a number
Ct times inccease in accommodation.
In 1855, Gen. Israel Gairard, at one time
sole proprietor. and all times the soul OF
Froutenao, perceiving the disadvantages
under which the Ursuline sisters in Lake
CITY labored, offered to donate for the
erection Of convent thereon 10 acres
Of the choicest Land abutting on Lake
Pepin. The offer was as thankfully re-
ceived as Aagnanimously made. Work
On drawing plans and preliminary ar
rangements were Immediately begun.
In 1888 the foundation was laid, since
which time the work has been vigorous
ly prosecuted and today the building
stands ready for occupancy. Villa Ma
ria ia Que OF the largest educational
structures in the northwest and is said
to be without exception the largest
wooden building in Minnesota, 1t is
built in crucei form shape and is 3O1
feet in length with a width of 80 feet.
It stands four stories high and is sur
mounted on the north end by a tower
which looms up in the air $50 feet. The
basement, which stands under the en-
tire structure, contains q large hot wa
ter plant which heats the entire bull d.
ING. The main hall is reached by the
entrance on the northwest corner. 1t is
20 by 60 feet, we'll lighted by stained
glass windows and it reaches the third
floor where 1t is crowned by beautiful
dome. At the top Of the lower staircase
Que enters an elegant room furnished
and table on which are found tele-
scopes and field glasses. Here one Is
confronted with landscape which no
artists brush could do Justice. The
silyery waters of the treacherous yet
beautiful lake with the high bluffs as a
background. The romantic peak, Maid
en- Rock, the little village of the same
name Nesting in ravine, the church
spires of distant Lake City, and rolling
fields intervening all SO harmonious, all
yet diversified alternately lull and stir
the spirit of the beholder. The con-
struction has been under the superln-
tendency of f. T. Evans, assisted by
O. D. Prescott, and great credit is due
these gentleman. F.S. Martin of Min
neapolis has put in the hot water plant
and P. v. Dwyer Of st. Paul, has done
the plumbing Two ideas have prevail
ed throughout the building OF the struc-
ture AS good sanitary arrangements az
possible, and easy escape from any part
of the buildingin case Of fire.

Tuesday to witness the dedicatory cere-
monies, many Of the number coming
from abroad.
Archbishop ireland was met at the
railway station by Father Healey OF st.
Mary's church, Lake City, and, together
with delegations of priests from st.
Paul and other localities, they journeyed
by carriage to the convent, at the main
approach to which was an arch contain
ing the inscription, 'Welcome to Villa
Maria.''
AT 10 a. m. procession OF altar boys
and priests, with Bishop Cotter of Win
ona and Archbishop Ireland bringing
up the rear, passed around in the fine
chapel of the convent, invoking bless
ing all that pertained to it. This
ceremony was private. Then followed
solemn high mass, with Father 'Trobic
of ST. Paul as celebrant, Father Sohnee
of the same city as deacon, and Father
Fitzgerald Of Belle Greek as subdeacon.
Fathers Gaughan "f St. Paul and
Healey of Lake City acted as masters of
ceremonies. Archbishop ireland and
Bishop Cotter occupied seats in the
chancel. In addition to the priests
above named, there were present Fathers
Raleigh of St. Paul, Fitzgerald Of Hast
ings, Wurst of Wabasha, Limberg OF
Belvidere, and Dryer of Red Wing.
The chapel was filled to its utmost Ca
pacity by an earnestly attentive audi.
ence, a large mum ber having to remain
outside. After mass Archbishop Ire
land delivered an eloquent address,
which he commenced by the statement
that the convent occupied the historical
place where mass was first celebrated in
this northern valley of the Mississippi
river, in chapel connected with Fort
Beauharnais, established in September
1727. This chapel, as was the origina,
one in the same location, had been dedi-
| Gated to and placed under the protection
of st. Michael the archangel.
! The archbishop rendered for himself
as an officer of the church and the Ursu
line sisters, at their request, the most
heartfelt thanks for the liberal donation
to them of the large domain on which
the convent had been erected. He ex
pressed the opinion that it was one OF
the loveliest spots in the northwest, and
doubted if there was any other site fol
school or convent in the country that
was more beautiful, invigorating and
inspiring. He gave a fine word picture
of the locality and it's surroundings.

with three gray wolf skins and three

cents for coyotes. aud the Stockmen's

in were from wolves which he roped
while riding the ranges. A. a wolf

much more thrilling While riding "A

chasing a bunch Of horses. in the
rear of which were an old mare and
colt, the object of the chase being
fresh colt meat. Stiff got behind

by. he put spurs 20 his broncho, and
singing out the biggest wolf in the
pack, made the chase.
As the cowboys horse was fresh and
the wolf already tired, il was not long
until the moose was dropped over the
head of the big gray. The animals

ever, and the rope tightened around
his body in such a way that he was
able to make a strong pull Finding
himself at the end of the rope, the

sharp teeth, made a dash for liberty in

the rope about the broncho's hind legs
and tail, and the natural result was

Between the bucking horse and the
wolf Stiff had his attention pretty well
taken up He held TO the bucking
strap and finally got straight, with the
wolf at the end Of the rope and square
