ABSOLUTELY PURE

as measured by that Of other schools in
populous states, it has always been suffi-
clent to make the academy the most
prominent young ladies school of the
southwest, and, by the work of its pupils,
to attract recognition, commentator,
aud testimonials wherever it's work has
competed for favor. A notable instance
was at the Worlds Columbian exposition
at Chicago in 1898, where the academy
was awarded medal and diploma for
class work in English and Spanish. 1t
might go without saying that the Sisters
in charge are exceptionally well qualified
teachers. They are usually from ten to
twelve in number. Besides the usual
branches of an academic education, pn-
pills qa take lessons and practice on the
piano. the orepn, the harp, the guitar.
other instruments in popular use, in vo-
cal music, in the languages, drawing in
pencil or crayon. painting in water col
ors, oil painting, hair work, artificial or
wax flowers, needle work, etc, etc. The
annual session begins on the first of Sep
tember and closes the last week in June.
Difference of creeds is no obstacle to the
admission of pupils; yet, for the mainte-
nance of order, all are required to con
form to the external discipline of the in
stitute. Nom Catholics are not, however,
obliged to assist at the religious instruc-
tions given to the Catholic pupils.
This academy is not conducted for the
purpose of making a profit over and
above the annual cost of maintaining the
school as tirst-class institution. 1t is
for this reason that the board and tut
tion are placed at the low price of $500
per session of ten months.
Parents or guardians may gain further
information by corresponding with
Mother Francisco Lamy, superior. In
conclusion, we may add that in the four
teen years Mother Francisco has had
charge of the Academy of Our Lady
of Light she has done noble work for
education in New Mexico, and has en-.
deared herself to the people of this city
and territory in manner not to be for
gotten IN this or the rising generation.

IT. Michael's College.
CONDUCTED BY CHRISTIAN BROTHERS.

CONDUCTED BY CHRISTIAN BROTHERS..
A special trade edition of this paper
would be manifestly incomp plete without
appropriate mention of the facilities here
offered for acquiring commercial edu-
cation. Happily, Santa Fs is in this, and
as in many other things, most fortunate.
St. Michael's college. which was estab-
lished in 1859, and incorporated in 1874
with full college privileges, is u CONNER
cial school of which Sauta Fe is Justly
proud. A commercial school, above all else,
should be conducted upon the practical
lines pupil will have to follow In life
OF business. II tisgratifying to note that st.
Michael's callege possesses this advantage
in pre-eminent degree. Indeed, it il
not alone y coinmercisl college in the
common acceptation OF the term, but
affords technical aud practical instruc-
tion a. we'll in civil engineering, drawing,
assaying, chemistry, music, the English,
French, spanish and German languages
telegraphy, type-writing and printing. In
fact, there 10 reason to doubt whether
there is on the continent commercial
college where the curriculum covers a
wider range Of the practical and useful

Academy Of Our Lady of Light.

CONDUCTED BY THE SISTERS OF LoRETTo.
Santa Fe is the educational center of
New Mexico, and is justly proud of her
institutions of learning for both sexes.
In the subject of this sketch we have
school for the education of girls and
young la9ies unsurpassed in many re-
spects by any school in the southwest
The Academy of Our Lady of Light
was founded in 1852, and is conducted by
tne Sisters of Loretto, an order whose
members consecrate their lives to the
service of God and the education of youth,
in like manner to that other noble order,
the Brothers of the Christian Schools.
The beneficent Order Of the Sisters of
Loretto was founded IN 1912 at Loretto,
Marion county, Kentucky. We are una
BILE to state the present membership of
the order, but something of the magni-
tude of the work 1t has already accom-
plished in the field of education may be
had from the fact that the Sisters of Lo-
retto now have schools in the states of
Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Alabama,
Texas, Kansas, Colorado and the terri
tory of New Mexico. 1t Is significant
fact, too, that the Loretto Academy of
Denver, Colo, now one of the most cele-
brated of the number, was founded by
sisters who went from New Mexico for
that purpose.
The fine ACADEMY at SantsFe was COM
pleted in 1881, the same year that Mother
Francisco Lamy, the present mother su.
perior, took charge of the institution
The academy building is an imposing
structure, and is furnished Throughout
with modern conveniences, including
steam heat, hot and cold water, gas, baths
ETC., etc. The building was erected at q
cost of $4,000. The location is all that
could be desired, and is on agentle ele
walton within the city yet having ample
grounds for out Of door recreation. II
this connection it is we'll, for the benef
of those readers living at distance, te
state that the climate of Santa Fe is un
surpassed for general healthfulness, ant
that many pupils coming to this and tt
other schools Of tho city regain thu
health which climatic influences Of les!
favored sections have impaired.

WASHINGTON LETTER.


Has Joe Blackburn made deal with the
administration A gentleman who is usu.
ally well informed upon inside Democratic
happenings assured me that he had. The
deal, according to this gentleman, provides
that Blackburn shall not talk free silver
during the remainder of the Kentucky cam
paign, and in return for his assistance in
keeping the silver question in the back
ground the administration promises that it
will present no candidate for the Senate,
against Black burn, if the Democrats retain
control of the Legislature While not pre-.
tending to vouch for the accuracy of this
story, will say that many tips received
from the same source have proved to be
straight There are also corroborative cir
cumstances, as the lawyers say First,
Blackburn's coming to Washington in the
midst of the campaign; second, his refusal
to talk; third, the talk of administration
Democrats about Blackburn being reelected
to the Senate, If the Democrats carry the
Legislature, because of his personal popu-
larity, regardless of the silver question. To
take in the full significance of the last it
must be remembered that few weeks ago
these same administration Democrats were
anybody to beat Blackburn
They do not love Blackburn now any
more than they did then, but they fear Re |

A Single Tag Plea.

EDITOR CHRONICLE The campaign Of
education which the single takers propose
to carry on in Delaware will be watched with
! the keenest interest by thousands Ct people
all over the country.
While the single tax agitation has been
going on for the past fifteen years, notably in
England, Australia and New Zealand. where
it has already become burning question,
this will be the first step toward its practical
application in this country with the excep-
ton of the Hvattsville, Md, experiment
some three or four years ago, which, as you
will remember, was declared unconstitu-
tional But in Delaware there are no CON
stitutional barriers, aRd the war, as you re-
marked in a recent issue, will be vigorously
waged
That bitter opposition will be encountered
there can be no question, for the benefciar
les of monopoly and special privileges will
not disgorge without a struggle. But depend
upon it, its only opponents will be the ienor-
ant or those whose minds are closed 10 all
seuse ofjustice.
In operation, the single tax will work inius-
tiee TO no one. It simply means that the
owners ofIaud shall pay into the public treas
ury the annual rental value of the bare lands
apart from any improvement in or upon it,
this constituting the only source of public
revenues all other taxes being abolished
Now in itself this is certainly very simple
proposition, but its application will produce
tremendous changes, particularly in the in
dustrial world, by clearing away all artificial
distractions that now hamper production
and exchange by opening up unlimited op-
portunities for the employment of labor and
capital; by securing to every worker, both
mental and manual the full product Of his
labor in place of the bare Subsistence which
is the case to-day. In other words the sin
gle tax would make men free by substituting
the natural for an unnatural system Of taxa
tiou. Upon the application of correct prin-
eiples OF taxation depends the Industrial and
commercial prosperity of civilized nations
more than anything else.
People Of Delaware, do you want prosper.
GUS times and high wages ? Ifyou do, now
is your chance. Study the single tax and
you cannot fail to be convinced of its Justice;
then vote for it,and you will be the first to
lead the world in an era of unprecedented
prosperity. Z. B. SwINNEY,
Orange, n. T.

Bayard Loyal to Great Britain.


A London dispatch says; Omitted
States Ambassador Bayard, refer
ring to the reported seizure of the
Island of Trinidad by Great Britain
and the agitation in Brazil on that
subject, said to day that the incident
was a trifing one, The island, he
added was very small, only ocou-
pied by few goats, and the British
ships merely stopped there to lay a
cable. Great Britain, he continued,
did not claim the Island of Trinidad {;
in fact, it is not worth claiming.
Like most South American govern
ments, said Mr.. Bayard, Brazil is in
tensely excited over nothing. Mr..
Bayard has received no Instructions
from Washington regarding the
Island of Trinidad,
