TIE FEAST OF CORPUS CHRISTI.
Observed with Impressive Services
in the Catholic Churches.

The feast of Corpus Christi. or the
feast of the blessed sacrament, was cele
brated yesterday in all the Catholic
churches of the city with special services
Corpus Christi is the Latin term for body
of Christ. The festival is celebrated in the
Roman Catholic churches ON the Thursday
after the octave of Whitsunday.
1t is called by the French Fete Dieu, or
the feast of God, being derived from the
article of the Catholic faith which teaches
that the humanity OF the Saviour is really
and substantially present in the host con-
secrated at mass and preserved in the tab
ernacie upon the altar. The institution
OF the sacrament was always celebrated
with solemn thanksgiving on Maundy
| Thursday in Holy Week. But that time
being mostly taken up with the commem-
Grafton of the SORROWS and sufferings OF
the passion, a solemn festival was estab-
lished by the zeal of pious persons to cele-
brate this mystery.
1t was first ordered to be celebrated in
synod held at Liege, in 1916. Pope Ur-
ban in 1864 commanded it to be observed
by the whole Church with a solemnity equal
to the four great festivals of the year.
The bull of the Pope was confirmed by
many of his successors, especially by Pope
Clement ". in the general council of vi
enua, in France. in the year 1911.
In the olden times this feast was COM
memorated by a grand military pageant,
attended by the King and Queen in court
robes and their bodyguards and couriers
in full court dress. Some places in this
country still celebrate the feast with such
parades.
Corpus Christi is also the special fes-
tival day of the Society of the Perpetual
Alteration. and was observed at st. Pat
rick's Church. where the Rev. Dr. Stafford
preached an eloquent sermon at both serv-
ices, held at 7:30 a. m, and 4:30 p. m.
At the morning services Father Gloyd was
celebrant, Father Dolan deacon, and
Father Stafford sub deacon. The church
was handsomely decorated. and the follow
| ing musical programme was rendered at
the evening service:
'Save Regina" by Kuehen. a contraIto solo
| with violin obigato; Mrs. NJ. n. Martin, sooist
Miss Bertha Lucas, violin; ''Veni Creator tenor

YELLOW BULL SLAIN.
The Last of His Family. All Having Been
Murdered.

Sioux Falls, S. D., July 13.-
Word has reached here from Rose
bud Indian Agency of the murder
of Yellow Bull, Brule Sioux by
another Indian. Whisky obtained
in some of the small neghboring
towns near the border of the Rose
bud reservation, was probably the
cause of the crime. The family of
Yellow Bull have been the victims
of a strange series of fatalities. On
December 13, 1894, Yellow Bulls
wife and little boy were beaten to
death by two Sioux Indians named
John Owlring and Thunder Hawk.
The latter committed suicide while
in Jail at Hot Springs shortly after
being arrested. The former was
tried in the United States court at
Deadwood, convicted of man
slaughter, and sentenced to a term
in the Sioux Falls penitentiary in
June, 1896. He died in prison.
Now Yellow Bull himself has been
killed, lie being the last of his fam
lily, all the members of which have
been murdered by members OF their
tribe.

MAY SETTLE THE WAR.
Otis Claims Thirty Thousand Men WIN
Bring Filipino War TO a Close,

Manila, July 13-General Otis
still believes thirty thousand troops
are sufficient to put down the in
surrection in the Philippines.
The majority believe more troops
are necessary and troops will be
sent so as to be ready for work
when the wet season is over. All
admit that no extended work of
campaigning can be done during
the rainy season. However, the
belief is general that when the
weather is such that work can be
done the war will be crowded to a
successful close in a comparatively
short time.
General Otis has hopes of the
successful outcome of the negoti-
ations now going on with the
Filipinos in Cavite provence. Sue
cess here will be a sad blow to
Aguinaldo.
The Spanish commissioners who
have returned from Tarlac say it
was evident there was consider
able strife among the Filipinos.

AN AWFUL CRIME.
An Indian Woman CHARGED with Killing
Her Step-Dsuahter.

A special from Cameron, says:
Mrs. Rosa Gibson, who lives about
eight miles north of Cameron. was
arrested this morning by Deputy
Marshal Norvell and brought here
and placed in Jail. Mrs. Gibson
whipped her little 9-year-old step
daughter so severely that she died
30 minutes afterward. An exami-
nation by the neighbors showed
that the body of the little girl was
black with bruises and lacerations.
On Friday and Saturday previous
to this the child was whipped un-
mercifully at the hands of this
woman and on Sunday morning
while going about half mile to
visit the family of Will Jones the
lash was again applied to the child
because in her weak condition she
could not walk the distance. Mrs.
Jones hearing her cries ran to in
terfere, but before she reached the
scene the child was unconscious
and never revived except to gasp
the words. "Aliza, she has beat me
to death" She died before medical
aid could be procured. She was a
bright child of her age, but very
delicate. Mrs. Gibson is about 80
years of age and half breed Choc-
taw, and wife of George Gibson,
who is now in Jail at South Meal
ester awaiting the action of the
grand jury on charge of stealing
cattle. Mrs. Gibson will have a
preliminary hearing before John R.
