Trouble Due to Attempt Of Brit
ish to Install Christian Official.
CANDIDA, Island of Crete, Sept g.
The Mussulmans are in a state Of an
archy. A collision between the Mus
sulmans, who were demonstrating
against European control, and the
British authorities, who have been in
stalling Christians as officers, termi-
mated today in fighting between the
Mussulmans and British troops The
riots took place in various parts of
the city, and many have been killed.
When the fighting was f1ercest a war
ship stationed in the harbor began
firing shells, with the result that
portion Of the city is in flames. The
greatest confusion and uproar pre-
walls, and it is feared the night will
not pass without further pillage and
destruction.
The trouble began with the attempt
Of the British authorities to install
Christian officials. They had appointed
a council Of international control to adj
minister the revenues, and a detach
ment of soldiers was stationed outside
the office as a precaution. A crowd
of unarmed Mussulmans who had been
ueIIloIlSlI bllAS against IHe CnIlSlldlS
attempted to force an entrance into
the Office. The British soldiers fired
and wounded several The Mussul-
mans ran for their arms and, return
ing, attacked the soldiers. Other Mus
sulmans spread rapidly through the
Christian quarter, shooting into win
dows and setting many houses and
shops on fire. 1t is reported the Brit
ish consul has been killed.
CANEA, Sept. 6, via Paris.-Four
warships have started for Gambia,
where 1t Is reported three English per-
sons have been killed and four wound
ed, and six Mussulmans killed. Special
precautions, are being taken here and
at Retimo, troops being held in readi-
ness.
The fighting has ceased at Gambia,
but the trouble continues.

KINDERGARTENS.
Another One Established by
Bishop McCloskey-The
Ladies in Charge.

The Rt. Rev. Bishop has opened an
other new kindergarten in this city, max
ing three in all under his care and look
ing to him for support. The last was
opened Monday morning week ago on
Brook street, adjoining St. Michael's
school. 1t is entirely separated from st.
Michael's parochial school, and is under
the protection of St. Joseph Calasanctius.
The old dilapidated hall adjoining the
school has been treated to a new floor,
new painting and a general renovation
and is now a handsome room. A hydrant
and sink have been placed in the rear of
the room, and everything done for the
convenience and happiness of the chill
dren. The Bishop deserves the gratitude
of the community at large for the inter
est and care he has shown in the found
ing of these schools and the comforts lie
has placed in them for the little children
and tiny waits of the city. Nothing has
been left undone. The second kinder
garten is at Thirteenth and Wilson streets,
the First being on Bullitt, between Main
and Water. 1t was established year
ago, and has met with great success. 1t
is to be hoped that the two new schools
may be patronized and aided by those
who are able to assist the good work
that souls may be saved by being taken
in their infancy that otherwise might
have never known protection.
Mrs. Rooney and Mrs. Annie N. Cum
ningham have charge of the school, and
will do all in their power to carry on the
work of entrusted to them. Both these
ladies have spent their lives among young
children, instructing and educating
them, and the community may look for
good results.

ran riotous with the heavy rainfalls that
the adjacent watersheds furnished. There
we're a number of casualties during the
march-some men falling, killed; more
wounded. In the course of this march
the left of the regiment, finding itself
projected beyond the colors, began to
mark time.
"Why do you halt, boys2" called out
Thomas Francis Meagher, the acting
Lieutenant Colonel, who was riding in
the rear of the marching column.
"To dress the line, sir" was the quick
response.
That's right, boys. Forward" an
swered back the future General.
The mark time" was at once changed
into the jaunty step, and the regiment
went forward, still under a heavy fire,
maintaining an alignment that would
have won applause on dress parade.
Meagher was delighted with this ex-
hibition of GOODNESS and courage, and
cried out; "Boys, will never ask you to
do what l don't do myself 7" and he at
once placed himself between the march
ing column and the fire which was direct
ed upon 1t. A solid shot knocked over his
horse, and Meagher, for the time, was
hors de combat.
The regiment was soon sent against a
fort and was halted just as it crossed a
sunken road and had entered upon the
field in which the fort was located. Sup
ports could not be found; the demoraliza
ton and disorganization of the troops had
become general. The Sixty-ninth wa:
ordered to retire. This retreat was effec
lively covered by part or the extreme left
company, who, luckily for their com
rades, had not heard the bugle call, and
these forced back iuto the fort by theil

practically over. II formed a square
later to receive and repel threatened at

Sixty-ninth was soon afterward marched
from the field, leaving no national soldier
behind, and unmolested by any pursuing
Confederate. The march was continued
