LIFE OF THE APOSTLE.
Father Junipero was born in the village
Of Petra, Island Of MajoTca, on November
a, 1913 His parents belonged to the farm
ing class, and were noted for their indus
try, piety and uprightness. Following the
custom of the country, the babe was christ
ened on the day OF his birth, when he re-
ceiyed the name of Michael Joseph, and
eighteen months later received the sacra-
ment Of confirmation. As he grew, his par
ents instructed him in the rudiments of the
Catholic faith, and when he entered the
school Of the Franciscan fathers at San
Bernardino he evinced such religious dis

give him all the advantages in their power,

railroad grading and clearing in

was completed McTighe & Co.
claimed that they were not liable

the various courts. McTighe & Co.
then had Albright arrested in Mem

he lay in Jail for thirty days. He
was acquitted of this charge and

International Bimetalism.

The latest ruse of the goldbugs is
that all Europe is now coming around
in favor of universal international
bimetalism. That the sentiment is
rapidly growing and is likely to pre-
vail in European cabinets, if the
powers can be convinced that the
United States do not intend to
plunge into free coinage of its own
motion. THAT is just where the
United States is going to plunge
The effect of the Argentine collapse
is said to have brought Europe to
consider this matter. The insult
ticency of gold currency to meet the
demand, and the fact that England
had to borrow largely of France, a
bi-metal country to tide over. This
is wonderful admission in favor of
free coinage for monometalsts to
make, and it seems to be the last ex-
tremity or hope of postponing free
coinage in the United States. The
fnnny part of this story is that Har-
rison and Secretary Foster are work
ing up this sentiment in Europe,
that they have several gentlemen OF
standing In private life engaged in
sounding Europe on this question,
without expense to the government,
says the New York uerald'S Wash
ineton special.
Harrison is afraid Of the free coin
age question and wants to mount the
universal bi-metal horse When this
country adopts free coinage Europe
will be forced into bi-metalism, and
not before that is clear.
