Seattle, Wash, Jan. 13.-There are

day. The call for the gathering was is
sued by Governor McGraW, in response
to a recommendation of the lmmigra

that beneficial results could not fail to

YELLOWST ONE PARK CLEANED OUT
POac hers Badly Frightened nv the Ar
rests Made Recently.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE campaign
of government authorities to suppress
the poaching operations against the
few remaining buffalo in the Yellow
stone National Park is reported by
Acting superintendent Anderson in a
communication to Secretary Smith
Captain Anderson says he employed a
detective during the winter among the
poachers, working from Idaho. Then
two expeditions were dispatched to
that region. They came upon a party
Of poachers and pursued them out Of
the park, firing upon them and killing
one of their horses.
James Courtney, Of Henry's lake, was
captured while delivering plumber to
w. F. Witch, a Butte taXidermist. At
the subsequent trial he was acquitted
on a claim that the spoils were OBJ
tanned in Idaho, outside the park.
Captain Anderson, however, believes
the capture has resulted in thoroughly
stampeding and demoralizing the
poachers.
The interior department officials say
that unlike Montana, poaching is not
made a felony throughout the year in
Wyoming and Idaho.

BISHOP PERRY NoTA GOOD AMERICAN
Storm of Righteous criticism Has Been
Provoked by Ills Actions.

New York. Jan. 1.-THE storm of
criticism that has been provoked among
the members of the Protestant Eplsco-
pal denomination throughout the coun-
try by the un-American sermon deliv-
cred in Dubuque, Iowa, a couple OF
weeks since by Rt. Rev. w. S. Perry,
the bishop of that diocese, and which
was also notable for it's malignant and
bigoted references to the adherents of
the Roman Catholic faith, has devel-
oped the fact that this is not the first
time that the prelate in question has
fallen afoul Of the country Of his birth
and it's institutions, and has manifest
ed his predictions for the rotten and
lettering monarchies Of Europe.
The story is told by a prominent res
ident of this city that a couple of years
since, while on a steamship en- route to
a Mediterranean port, he seized the Oc-
casion offered by a patriotic celebra-
ton Of Washingtons birthday which
had been organized by his fellow pas
sengers, to deliver a heated address i'll
antagonism to the spirit OF the occa-
sion, and in which he compared the
monarchiSm of Great Britain and the
imperialism of Germany with the re-
publicanism of the United States to the
decided disadvantage of the latter. SO
pointed were his remarks of derogation
Of his own country that ex-Minister to
Belgium Lambert Tree. who was one of
the passengers felt 1t incumbent upon
him to come to the defense of his cOun-
try and his flag, in a speech which was
regared as cutting rebuke to the Iowa
prelate The latter had little in COM
mon with the rest of his passengers,
and several Of whom were Americans

eminent Chicago publisher, since de
ceased-fOr the few days that remained
Of the voyage.
Bishop Perry seems to have an un-
fortunate faculty for putting his foot
into it." Only a couple of months since,
while acting as chairman of the press
committee of the house of bishops at the
triennial convention of the Episcopal
church at Minneapolis, he was publicly
pilloried for Withholding from the rep
! resentativ of the local and outside
| press important proceedings of that
| body in order that he might have eXclu-
sve use of such matter for report of
the proceedings that he had been hired

If any one finds a stray church organ

Ia probably the property Of the congre-
CATION of the Pleasant Valley Church,
Barton County, Kan. That is believed
to be the only church in the United
States to-day that has lost It's organ by
theft. The crime Is somewhat unusual.
as ordinarily church organs would be
regarded as too bulky to be successfully
concealed by robbers. II is particularly
heinous In this Instance, as the instru-
ment represents the results Of numer-
Gus soc!als and church festivals. There
Is no suspicion that the music emitted
by the organ has had anything to do
with Its abrupt taking off or that the
singing inspired by the organ has arous-
ed any latent predatory instincts In any
OF the congrega ton. The sole theory
entertained Is thar some aggregation of
persons simply stole the organ either
because they wanted an organ or need
ed the money 1t would sell for, and that
Is the kind OF person chiefs of police

Demand for Mother OF Pearl.

Considering the vast values In gem
pearls obtained from the eastern fish
cries, 1t is surprising to find that the
plain, unromantic mother of pearl SCI
cured is of even greater worth. Pre-,
viou5 to the discovery of the extensive
Australian fishing grounds In 1866, the
supply of mother of pearl was dimin-
ishing, while the demand was increas-
ing. The large shelled species already
mentioned are there found in fine quail
ity. The shells are the size of large
soup plates, weigh a pound each, and
are worth about 81 pair. An expert
diver, in diving dress, will collect 300
or 400 pairs in day. About 100 gem
pearls are found in every ton of these
shells.
Beautiful art work In carved and in.
laid mother of pearl has long been pro.
duced in China and Japan. Some idea
Of the extent of it's European use in the
arts and manufactures may be had
from the fact that 100000 people are
engaged in working mother Of pearl In
AuSti id, anu hdii tudl uumDcT III
France, while the value of the annual
import into England IS nearly $780,.
600. In the Philippine Islands windows
are made of mother Of pearl, and James
Anthony Froude, in his volume Of voy-
aging In Oceana, describes frightful
Maori idols with slips Of mother of
peari glittering in their eye sockets;
while in Cashmere 1t Is the custom to
inlay the inscriptions in tombstones
with the same exquisite substance. To
cap the climax Of curious uses Of the
lustrous nacre, it is said that large
quantities Of seed pearls are imported
into China to be calcined into medicines
