CONFIRMATION AT
 ST. J0SEPH'S CHURCH
FIVE HUNDRED CHILDREN RE-
 CEIVE THE SACRAMENT.
Eloquent Address by Archbishop Riordan-First Communion Ad-
 ministered in the Morning.

After months of assduous application and careful direction in the fundamental principles of the Catholic religion, the sacrament of confirmation was solemnly administered to a class of over 800 boys and girls yesterday afternoon at St. Jo- seph's Church by Archbishop Riordan. The ceremony began promptly at o'clock and was both impressive and inspiring. It was an interesting and solemn specta- cle to view the procession of girls, robed in immaculate white costumes, with the white veils indicative of purity hiding their countenances, followed by the young men and boys, wearing the confirmation badge. The procession slowly wended it's way from the assembly hall of the mon astery on Howard street down Tenth to the entrance to the church.
 The main aisles of the church were de- voted to those about to be confirmed. The surrounding aisles. and in fact, every available space in the entire edifice, was crowded with people from all sections of the city and by the parents and friends of the children confirmed.
 Immediately after the administration of the sacrament the total abstinence pledge, conditional upon membership in the League of the Cross, was taken by all the boys, with but few exceptions. The prayers were read from the altar and the various conditions under which the pledge was taken were first read by the Archbishop and afterward repeated by those willing to abstain from the evils of drinking until the age of q years.
 The following is a complete list of those confrmed

The Emperor Discusses the Eventual ity of a Serious Anglo-French
 Conflict

BERLIN, Dec. n.-Emperor William to- day received the recently elected Presi- dents of the Reichstag. In the course of a general conversation he said that, all though Germany was on a peaceful and friendly footing with all the powers, the international situation required great at- tention, 'as, indeed, every layman can see for himself"
 Therefore, his Majesty urged. it was necessary to carry out the proposed com pletion and perfecting of the army. What l propose" he remarked, lis cer- tainly not much, but consideration for the tax-paying capacity of the country would not permit more to be proposed"
 LONDON, Dec. 12.-The Berlin core spondent of the Daily News says: T have not been able to procure an authen- tic record of Emperor Williams conyer- sation with the Reichstag officials. but I have reason to believe that 1t covered a large field in foreign poiitics.

TO DAWSON WITH A
 HORSE IN WINTER
Two Alaskan Prospectors Start With a Pony to Haul Their
 Outfits,


 PORT TOWNSEND, Dec. 1.-The steamer Farralon arrived from Skag- uay, Alaska, tonight, with the follow ing news:
 The first attempt to reach Dawson in winter with horse was made on De- cember 4 from Skaguay by Joseph Reilly and Joseph Achenbach, old min CTS and prospectors. Their pony weighs 600 pounds and their outfit consists of two sleighs and 1070 pounds of provi- sions and clothing. They expect to reach Dawson in thirty days.
 The United States Court is in session at Juneau and the docket shows the largest number of criminal cases since the organization of that district of Alaska. The Grand Jury is still turn ing out indictments, principally cases of selling liquor to Indians. The court has taken up the matter of Suppressing witchcraft practiced among the In- dians, who are very superstitious. When one of the tribe becomes sick with some disease which the shaman or doc tor is unable to cure he pronounces the patient bewitched. Then the relatives of the sick Indian will accuse one of the tribe of witchcraft. This accusa- tion is equivalent to death sentence. as the accused is immediately tortured to death.
 United States District Judge John son in his charge to the Grand Jury asked for patient inquiry into the of lenses growing out of the superstition.
 The steamer Utopia, which escaped destruction by fire on November F, in Alaskan waters, and was afterward seriously battered by an Alaskan bliz- gard, has been partially repaired at Juneau and is now on her way down.
 The first United States mail for Tan mana River left Dyea, December 5, in charge of Alfred I. Smith. He has two dog teams of seven dogs each. The weight of the mail exceeds 1000 pounds.

LONDON, Dec. u.-Lieutenant Wark of the Royal Artillery. who on Thursday last was sentenced to death on the charge of having murdered Miss Jane Yates of Liv- erpool, girl of good family, by conspir- ing with her to procure an illegal opera ton, which resulted in her death, has been reprieved.

The charge that the police who are veri-
flying the registry lists are conducting
their work in a partisan manner, has
stirred the Indignation of several gentle-
men who are at the head of the nepart-
ment. One and all connected with the
work say, of course, that the Democrats
are being treated just as fairly as the
Republicans. Leader Davis had this to
say on the subject today:-'If Inspector
Lange, or any other man, says that the
verification of the registry lists is being
conducted inpartially, / will tell him 70
his face that he lies: ! know what is
