the cares of the episcopal state and
zealously fulfilling the most minute
duties in it's interest.
Prominent Participants.
The celebration is in keeping with the
noble character of the venerable prelate.
From the far northern State of Oregon
to the everglades Of florida, and from
distant Maine to remote Mexico, and
even from the Vatican at Rome, princes
of the church, prelate and priest have
come to honor the aged archbishop on
the evening Of his successful and glori-
Gus career. The list of clerical partici-
pants in the jubilee services embraces
cardinal, twelve archbishops, sixty-6ve
bishops, five mitred abbots, nearly three
hundred priests and many dignitaries
of the different religious orders of the
faith.
The solemn pontifical high mass in
honor of the occasion was celebrated in
the old cathedral OH Walnut street. The
interior of the church was handsomely
decorated. Above the cardinals throne
was suspended his coat of arms, consist
ing of two horizontal stripes, yellow and
white, bearing a medallion, with the
crossed keys and triple crown. Over
the archbishops throne was his coat of
arms.
Procession to the Cathedral.
EARLY in the morning Archbishop
Kenrick said mass privately in the
chapel of his residence on Lindall
avenue, and at $3.50 o'clock he entered
carriage drawn by iron gray horses, COW
cred with purple trappings and led by
footmen. His eminence, Cardinal Glib
bons. had similar equippage, drawn by
black horses covered with red drapery.
Both carriages and their distinguished
occupants were escorted by a mounted
platoon of Catholic gentlemen wearing
appropriate sashes and badges. The
procession moved slowly in the clear
and crisp morning air, from the resi-
donoo to tho ccboo1 bo,co o1ioipiro +bo
cathedral, and reached the end of the
journey shortly before 8 o'clock. The
most reverend and right revered prel-
ates and the officers of the mass donned
their vestments in the sacristies and
few minutes after O'Clock the process
sion from the school house to the main
entrance to the church began. The pro-
cession passed into the church and down
the main aisle and entered the sanctuary.
High pontiflcal mass was then proceeded
with, Cardinal Gibbons being the cele-
brant.

Chance.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April Is
1891. Hon. W. H, Clagett,, Wash
ington, D. G. Sir:-On my return
from the Bermuda's l was shown a
published interview with you in
the Washington Daily Post of
March 23rd. PREDATORY to your
interview the Post correspondent
says: "A. M. Mcdonald in a te!e-
gram received by Mr.. Dubois,
asserted that he would swear that
King and Emory. two members of
the Idaho legislature, were offered
$4,000 in his presence to vote for
Claggett for senator.
You say, "a special from Wash
ington to the Chicago News of
March 18th, shows that Mr.. Dubois
caused it (the story about King
and Emory to be put in circula-
ton. I do not wonder that he
went to Cuba Immediately after
doing So"
From the above premises you
are interviewed, and assuming that
your premises are correct, that you
insinuate that my conduct, polit.
ically, will not admit of in vestiga-
ton.
1.-THE fact u.s." you say in your
interview, that I think all this
kind Of warfare is unseen ly, unjust
and cowardly."
My Dear Mr.. Claggett, I desire
to state to you in writing, that I
never received telegram, letter or
communication of any kind from
Mr.. Mcdonald on any subject,
since the meeting of the Legislature
in December last. I did not know
that this story was published in
the Chicago News or any other
Eastern paper. l never spoke to
the News correspondent or any
other correspondent about it, nor
was I, in any manner, direc tly or
indirectly responsible for its publ
cation.

Tribune, day or two before I left.

Idaho paper.

wish tn add further, so that
there may be no misunderstanding
about my position or actions, that
l have never paid the slightest
attention to the method, means or

cerned. l was either legally elected

business, when Mr.. Ryan handed

delayed my departure until this
evening train in order to answer it.
So long as the falsehood about
King and Emory rested upon the
statement of Mcdonald, I paid no
attention to it. He is known in
Idaho and his word is worthless
wherever he is known. l only
referred to it when I became salts
fled that you had been instrumental
in CIRCULATING it in the eastern
press. then felt that it was due
to myself as we'll as to two friends,
known of all to be men of the high
est integrity, that l should protect
their good names HERE, at home
they needed no protection. Had
you been in the city I would have
requested an explanation from you.
You had, however, gone to Cuba
before l saw the telegram which
DIRECTLY connected you with the
statement of Mcdonald. It was
impossible to reach you, and l
could not allow my friends or N.Y.
self to rest an indefinite length of
time under such an aspersion.
Until yesterday l have not doubted
that you were directly responsible
for the circulation HERE of the
falsehood of Mcdonald. On yes.
terday I received a letter from a
resident of Post Falls, to the effect
that the writer did not believe that
you were so responsible. Your let
ter of yesterday also assures me
that such is the fact. Lam glad
therefore to comply with your
request that l shall either acknowl-
edge myself mistaken or give some
authority for my statement.
The first public information re.
ceived by me through the eastern
press, was in the Star Of this city
of March 18th, where an interview
with myself was prefaced with the
statement that '.just before Mr.. Du-
bois left tho city IT IS STATED he re-
ceived a dispatch from Editor Nc
Donald, ETC." A few days after
this l saw the same statement in
the Baltimore American of March
14th. 1 was at loss to know how
the press correspondent could know
that You had received a private
telegram from Mcdonald or know
its contents unless you had given
them the information; but in the
absence of a distinct statement to
that effect, l remained silent, pre-
fering to treat the matter as an
irresponsible rumor, although CAL
culated to produce the same effect
upon the public mind as a distinct
charge. About March Goth l ga W |

unexpected, required the investigation OF

There were signs of congestion IN all the

failure, which was the immediate cause OF
death. But the stomach, lungs and brain
were all in good condition. In the stomach

AT Oil City the wayhouse of the Eclipse
Oil Refinery caught on fire early yesterday

fire would ensue, but it was confined to the
building where it originated. The only loss
is some stock and the flooding of the way

PROSPEROUS LUTHERAN MISSIONS.
Read at the General Synod in Session
at Lebanon, Pa.

Reports Read at the General Synod in Session
at Lebanon, Pa.
LEBANON, PA, May 22.-At to-day s ses-
sion of the General Synod of the Evangeli-
cal Lutheran Church, the General Secretary
of the Board of Home Missions, A. A. Hart
man, presented his report, in which it was
shown that the receipts increased 1898
over those of the preceding two years. The
number of separate missions that received
aid within the past two years was 135, an in
crease of 21 over the preceding two years.
The number of missionaries who have
labored in the home field was 151, an in
crease of q over the preceding two years.
The number of accessions to the mission
churches was $685., being 1,031 greater than
in the preceding two years.
On the subject of home missions the re-
port Of that board showed that the receipts
since the last convention were S75,97
With this money the board was able to aid
135 mission churches, and thereby swell the
total receipts from those churches by the
sum of 1865, ,275, which represented work
that would have been lost to the church at
large without the timely aid rendered by
this board. The board asked for an appro-
priation of $4,000 for each of the two years,
with April, 1892. The afternoon
was spent in discussing the resolutions ap-
pended to the report, which developed
great interest among the delegates in the
marvellous home mission opportunities for
the Lutheran Church in California and in
other States west of the Missouri river.

taken up in the reading of reports, the
principal of which was that OF the Board
of Home and Foreign Missions. The re-
port showed that the board had raised in the
past S645, $50 for missions, and that 20 mis-
sionaries are now engaged in foreign fields.
A warm discussion elsued over the re-
port, many of the members holding the idea
that too much attention was being given
the work i'll the cities, and that the work OF
tho country districts was to be allowed to
languish. Many Presbyteries were reported
as not cooperating with the board on this
account
To placate this feeling resolution to re-
fund to each Presbytery one-third of the
money contributed by it to home missions
was introduced 1t is understood this resO-
luton will be adopted, land it lis believed will
act as oil on the troubled waters. The Com
mittee on Overtures reported adversely
upon the resolution to allow all women to
become elders, and the report was adopted.
A fight was looked for on this resolution.
There will no session tomorrow, as the del
egates go on an excursion to Evansville.

THE COLONEL WAS IN LUCK.
He Captured Wonderful Snake and Has
the Bungs as Proof.

He Captured Wonderful Snake and Has
the Bungs as Proof.
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.1
Colonel j. B. Jones was fishing on the
banks of Redfoot creek, Tennessee, having
left his boat to escape the hot sun, and had
hardly thrown his line out into the water,
when he saw dark object rapidly ap-
preaching the surface. At first the genial
Colonel thought it an alligator of unusual
size, but on closer observation discovered it
to be an enormous creeping serpent.
When this huge monster was within few
yards of him Colonel Jones gathered some
stones about the size of goose eggs and
struck it several times in succession, and,
strange to say, the blows did not appear to
worry his snakeship to any great degree, as
it never once left the surface of the water,
but continued unconcernedly. at slow pace
up stream.
Colonel Jones Immediately seized his rod
and line and scampered hastily to his boat.
1t was only question of few minutes be-
fore he was in midwater and in hot pursuit
of the object, which was soon overtaken.
When within close proximity he noticed
the huge reptile seemed to be blind and
apparently harmless.
Fearing an attack, however, Colonel Jones
seized his rifle and taking aim at his head
fred The bullet lodged in the collar-bone
and broke its neck. There was a slight move
ment of the tail, little splashing of water,
and all was over, the monster floating down
stream.
Curious to learn the species of this pecu-
liar reptile, Colonel Jones made lasso
from stout rope which he had in the boat
and threw it around its body, thus enabling
him to tow it ashore.
A critical examination developed the fact
that he had captured monster snake never
before seen in this part of the country. 1t
had a head resembling long, funnel-shaped
horn, the body being similar to small kegs
Joined together. What made it more queer
each keg seemed to have bunghole or out
let, some of the queer knots being on the
tail on the bank, which was by no means an
easy task, he opened one of the knots with
a jack-knife, and found it to be full of clear,
purified oil.
At this juncture Major Sam Hall, an old
sportsman, who has hunted all over the
world, came up, and frantically gesticulat-
ing, he exclaimed:
.'Good God, John, your fortune is madel'
Further, he said it was a porpoise snake;
and q rare specimen to be found thus far
North. The oil in the kegs has since been
found to be pure, unadulterated porpoise
oil Twelve 40-gallon barrels were filled.
The oil has been shipped to Pittsburg, Pa,
and will realize handsome fund for
Colonel Jones.
By way Of explanation, it should be said
to the incredulous that this is species
of the snake family which obtains oil by
plungiing its sharp head into the side of a
porpoise and draining every drop of oil
from its body.
Jones has the kegs and bungs in his pos
session.
