NEW CATHOLIC BISHOP.
E. j. Dunno Installed in the Diocese of
DalIas-Address on Religion.

DALLAS, Tex, Jan. 17-E. j. Dunno.
Catholic Bishop of the Diocese of Dallas,
was installed here to-day. In his address
he said: while intellectual development
must not be neglected under any circum-
stances, the spiritual faculties must be
educated. There is no escape for society
from destruction when the power of religion
becomes lost in the world, and the sooner
consciousness of that truth comes to all
people, whether they be Catholics or Prot
estants: the sooner they recognize that there
is an all-pervading, all-wise. all-virtuous,
all-seeing power ruling over them, the soon-
er will the blessings of God come upon
them. Catholics should not be alone In the
struggle for the preservation of religion
and education. All who look to the safety
of the State should be interested in relig-
ion, for those who are faithful to God are
faithful to their State.
Bishop Dunno was accompanied to Dali
las by a party of Chicago priests, and
local committee met them at Fort Worth
Father Martinlere, vicar general, delivered
the formal address of welcome. The au-
dience at the installation was composed of
Catholics and Protestants, including many
business men. After the exercises, a re-
ceution and banquet was rendered the bish-
on by the pariShionerS.

THE SENATORS TICKLED.
Mr.. Turpie Asks for an Increase of

Special TO the IndianapOlis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Jan. lin the Senate,
to-day, Senator Turpie presented a batch of
papers in an Indiana pension case which ex-
cited the risibles of those who saw or read
them. Ordinarily there would have been no
attention attracted by the presentation. The
papers consisted of two or three afIidavits,
proving the increased disabilities of Harmon
Riddle Of Greenfield who asked for the
adoption of bill granting him an increase
of pension. The papers were properly drawn
and had about them no outward element of
curiosity, but the subject-matter Is what
ticlkled the risibles. Harmon Riddle served
in Company -, Fifty-first Indiana Cavalry,
for over three years. At the time of his in

Several Fiendish Attempts to De-
strOy Life and Property.
Farmers House and Tenement Partly
Wrecked-ExplOsiOn of an Internal
Machine OH a Vessel.

PITTSBURG, Jan. 1.-THE bomb and
dynan ite fiend is making as much trouble
now IS the crank did few months ago.
A disp itch from Greensburg, Pa, says that
unknown persons placed two sticks of
dynamite, with a fuse attached, near the
front door of William Heintsman'S resi-
dence on the McCance farm, Idlewild, last
night and lighted the fuse. The explosion
which followed badly wrecked the house
and seriously injured Mrs. Heintsman, who
is confined to her bed. The rest of the
family escaped with slight bruises.
Lancaster, Pa, reports that an attempt
was made last night to blow up big four
story brick building belonging to John w.
Holman and situated next the police
station. A fuse seen projecting from
the foundation, when an investigation dis

dynamite. A nitro glycerine cap connected
it with a piece of fuse four feet long, which
had been ignited but had gone out. The
building, which was vacant for some time,
had just been leased by the Lowell Harness
and Collar Company.
A dispatch from Salem, o., says: When

city yesterday morning he found a bomb
lying against the Office door. a piece of

WASHINGTON AS A LABORATORY.

Dispatches from Washington tell OF a pro-
posed combination OF the University OF Chi
cago and Columbian University. 1t is stated
that Baptists in the East want their section of
country represented in n great educational
institution, and that they are looking toward
Washington because it is already the home OF
three great university movements emanating
from Catholics, Methodists, and Episcopal
ians.
But a reason stronger than this is easily dis
covered in DR.. Harper's well-known and
much talked of ambition to found school Of
Jurisprudence and politics which shall have
a laboratory close at hand. Here is Wash
ingtons great advantage. 1t is the only city
In the country which constitutes such labo-
ratory, possessing as it does the supreme
executive. administrative. law-making, and
judiciary powers OF the nation. This fact
has been dwelt on time and time again in
connection with the founding Of our present
universities, but it becomes more prominent
in view of DIR. Harpers idea to found school
only accessible to graduates of institutions Of
high standing, and with a curriculum OF ad-
Souisco III bhut dVW
study-the science of government.
The scope of the Columbian University is
broad, as it is at present constituted. and its
heads are men Of national reputation in their
respective specalties. but it is easy to see how
much greater would be its local and national
bearing were it brought into connection with
the greatest seat Of learning in the West. 1t
would gain thereby the marvellous organiz-
ing energy of DR.. Harper and the magnificent
financial backing of that prince of givers,
John d. Rockefeller.
The University Of Chicago has its great
Ryerson physical laboratory, its Cobb chemi-
cal laboratory, its Yerkes observatory. its un-
exampled opportunities pardon. Chicago for
the stunning" OF students in sociology;
now let it join issues with Columbian Univer-
sity and gain thereby laboratory for the
study Of government such as is afforded by the
House and Senate galleries, the lobby, the de-
partments, the White House, and an occa-
sional trip across the river to the grand old
state that gave us our early leaders; for the
development of the national veneration feel
ing is a legitimate function OF the science of
government.

CHEAPER GAS.

Whatever legislation Congress may enact
respecting the supply of gas to the citizens OF
the District, a cheaper price is an essential
condition. This is the opinion of the Com
missioners. and it will be cordially concurred
in by every citizen.
Washington pays entirely too much for its
gas The majority of cities of like size in
this country get this Illuminating agent at
much lower rate than that ruling in the Dis
trict. There is no valid reason why such
Should be the case The raw material can b Q

as it is furnished elsewhere, and the expense
Of operating the plant is no greater here than

ors are as large, il not larger. than those OF
persons engaged in similar enterprises at
other points. These are facts which have
been established by ample testimony before
committees of Congress that have investi-
gated this subject.
While, however. It is important that cheaper
gas should be given the people of the Dis
trict il is no less essential that its illuminat-
ing power should be improved. bill is now

AS THE CROWDS COME OUT.

Washington tbeater-goers are fortunate in
having snch an admirable company in this
city as that now playing at the New National.
This week they present Robertson's comedy
drama school" sweet little English play in
four acts. The plot is simple unfolding of
the oft-used story of an heiress and poor
lover, lord and charity pupil all happily
mated. The members of the company are all
well fitted for their respective parts. and give
a finished production. The work Of Joseph
Wheelock, ir., is exceptionally good. He has
undertaken new part, that of a sneaking
tutor, a mixture of Dickens Bradley Head
stone, the schoolmaster. and the sleek Uriah
Heep, and he makes most acceptable william.
The company has been strengthened for the
week by the addition OF five young ladies from
the Three Dukes" opera company. who fll
the minor parts with great credit. In the end
the marriage bells go ringing.
This weeks presentation of high class vau-
deville at Albaugh's is up TO the standard OF
amusements provided by that house. and au-
gurs well for good week. First-nighters en-
loved sparkling entertainment last night,
full of music, dance and laughter. The pro-
gramme is almost entirely changed and all
the features presented are new.
There are many gymnasts on the variety
stage. but none give u more exciting eIhibi-
ton than the Zamora family, Mexican aero
bats.
The Dixon brothers increased their popu-
larity by an absurd musical farce and their
artistic manipulation of varions musical in
struments.
The Misses Leach are refined singers of
quaint old negro melodies. They accom-
panied themselves on banjos, and were en-
cored repeatedly.
Mons. Pitrot. the mimic and impersonator.
