THE STORY OF THE JEsUITs.
A Chicago Priest Pays Eloquent
Tribute to Their MissiOnarfes.

Father Bowling spoke the other night
In Chicago of Some Typical Jesuit Mis-
sionaries." He began with O fascinat-
Ing account Of the life Of Ignatius 10y
ola, founder OF the great order, from his
young manhood. passed amid the perils
and pleasures of the courts and camps
OF Europe. to the close OF his life OF suf-
fering and self-abnegation as teacher
and minister to all mankind. He drew
an effective contrast and lesson from
the brave deeds OF Loyola, the nobleman
and hero of Pampeluna," and his latsr
career, marked by suffering and bene-
factions. that earned for him the title OF
Saint of Rome"
The father then spoke al length OF the
labors OF st. Francis Xavier, who in the
seventeenth century carried the word
into India, and of those Jesuit mission
aries who. wise as serpents and harm
less as doves" were able by their zeal,
coupled with tact and discretion TO
break down the conservatism and pre- u-
dice of the Chinese. and TO plant the
banner of the cross under the walls OF
the Emperors palace, without the she'd
ding OF blood. He spoke of the difficult
ties they encountered In having to learn
the strange monosyllabic language of
the Chinese and in dispelling the ancient
prejudices OF the people In. short
tliIlc tHty WIOtt anu spoke tne language
and translated the Bible and many
hymns OF the church into the native
tongue, and baptized thousands. Their
learning acquired in the monasteries
stood them in good stead, for they were
thus able to assist the Chinese scholars
in their Investigations, particularly as
tronomy, In which they had attained
great knowledge. As a result OF the
gentleness, piety and learning, they
were we'll received by the Emperor, who
granted them many privileges and nm
munities, which they never took per
sonal advantage of, So much influence
did they exercise over him that they
were able to correct many of the errors
OF his life and his time by their wise
counsels and rebukes. Other fathers in
the south OF India, by a like policy. had
planted by 1856 churches in every town
and won many Brahmins 10 the true
faith.
In speaking of the work OF the Jesuts
In North America. Father Bowling said
that always violence and bloodshed had
marked the Sriumphs OF the Church
there. Scourglngs, burnings and the
most horrible tortures had been the fire.

JEWElLER OUCKLER IN JAIL.
Sued for $1,000 by a Firm Of
Diamond Dealers.
They Say He Transferred Property
to Defraud Them.

Adolph Duckler, formerly a manu-
featuring jeweller. at 233 Delaney
street, was arrested late yesterday af-
ternoon by Deputy Sheriff Wagering,
and In default of 81. 800 bail was lodged
in Ludlow Street Jail.
He is sued by Norden Co., diamond
cutters and dealers. at IS Maiden lane.
to recover $500 the value OF diamonds
obtained by him from the firm.
Norden & Co. aliege that on Sept. ..
1892, Duckler called at their store and
purchased the gems on credit.
The firm had previously done business
on credit with Duckler. but the amounts
involved were smaller.
They allege that on this occasion,
when questioned as to his financial
status, Duckler assured them that he
was entirely solvent and that in addi-
ton to his business he owned a house
and lot at 81 Willet street.
The Arm finally let Duckler have 81, 600
worth of diamonds, and he agreed TO
pay for them by giving Norden n Co.
eight interest-bearing promissory notes
OF 500 each. When the first note be-
came due, four months later, and was
not paid, Norden 4 Co. obtained judy
ment against Duckler and began pro-
ceedngs to collect their money.
They allege that they then learned
that Duckler. in the latter part of Au-
gust. or. just before he bought the dia-
mOnds, had given his wife bill of sale
for his business. and had also trans
ferred 10 her the house at 80 Willet
street

drew all his money from the Union
Square Bank and redeposited 1t under he
name Of "Adolph Duckler, attorney"
- a ~ - Ia 90 - al kF
as manager for his WIFE, who. he said,
owned the business.
Norden Il Co, allege that Duckler re-
ceived no consideration from his wife
for his property, and that the transfer
was made 10 defraud his creditors.

amounts 10 81, 69S. % for which amount
they have brought suit.

Granite Bracket Makes a Crash
in the Custom-House.
Weighed Halt a Ton and Dropped In
Front Of the Cashiers Office.

Is Endangered.

Capt. Cashow. the veteran door-keeper
at the Custom-lIouse. was tartlsed a,

that reverberated through the emptycor.
ridors OF the building like thunder.
With half u dozen porters, who were
in the building, Capt. Cashow rushed up
to the second floor, where the report
seemed to have come from, and found
wreck in front of the door Of the
cashiers office.
One Of the great granite brackets sup
porting the stone galleries of the third
floor had broken off close to the wall
and fallen on the stone tagging of the
second floor.
These brackets are Of solid gray gran
lite. about six feet long, and weigh near
ly half q ton each. This great weight
fell about fifteen feet and smashed the
tagging on which 1t fell into smither-

In all directions and breaking glass in

AS soon as the men realized what had
happened they looked to the stone floor
ing OF third gallery and saw that where
its support had been taken away by the
falling Of the bracket 1t had begun to
sag.
Had the bracket fallen any time be-
tween 10 o'clock In the morning and 8
in the afternoon, there would surely
have been many persons Kill or In

Acting Custodian of the Building Law
lor soon had force of men at work
cleaning up the debris and putting props
under the galleries.
The affair has made all the employees
feel nervous, as all of the corridors in
the Custom House are supported by
these granite brackets, which just cut
off the walls every ten or twelve feet.
During Collector Erhardts adminis-
tration big bracket fell one afternoon
at 4 o'clock, right In front Of the door
of the Collectors office. grazing the
shoulder Of q man who was passing.
Many OF the brackets are cracked
and parts of the heavy stone galleries
have sagged so that the mortar in the
Joints has all dropped out. Some of
the clerks are afraid to walk under
some Of these sections, and fairly run
along the galleries. expecting any time
to hear the great stones come crashing
down behind them.
For years It was the custom to wash
down the walls and floors every day with
a largeh ose. and experts say that the
building was kept so wet that the granite
is slowly decaying. They say the in
terror of the building is dangerous
