The season opened with renewal OF
hostlities between Lord Dunraven and
,he New York Yacht Club. The former
wrote 70 ask il his challenge Of the pre-
yious season had not been considered as
merely postponed, and wanted TO know
II he were still regarded as a challenger.
The club took q dignlfed stand, and re-
piled that IL would be pleased TO waive
tho ten months limit again, but that
he must issue q new challenge IN the
name OF a recognized yacht club with
supplemental statement TO the effect that
the club neither could, nor would, de-
part from the position taken by 1t last
year" Lord Dunravens reply was that
the Royal Yacht Squadron, in the event
OF becoming a winner, could not pledge
itself 10 sail all future contests under
the terms OF the Objectionable deed OF
gift Thus ended the Nalkyrie farce.
The death Of MIR George J.. Schuyler the
last donor of the cup, makes the ne"
deed Of gift irreyocable. There

hlilt By Colonel North, in England, one
by a syndicate Of yachtsmen IN France,
and another in Australia, TO challenge

HIS THREE

Rev. Edward P. O'Toole, a bright
young priest Of Mondoi, Wis, was in the
city within the past week, the guest of
Father Toilet. The reverend gentleman
is paying his first visit to Montana, hav-
ing come west on a visit to his brother,
who is a resident Of Great Falls. He also
has friends in Anaconda and came here
to visit them. being the guest of the pas
tor of St. Pauls church. He was agree
ably surprised to see the large number
and devotion Of the people who
attend mass all over Montana and par
ticularly in Anaconda. At s o'clock mass
he spoke on the faith of the Hibernians,
1t that mass the members of the A. o. H.
having received communion in a body.
At the high mass he spoke again, taking
for his subject The Sign Of the Cross
which he explained very beautifully and
explicitly. At vespers in the evening he
spoke on the Devotion to the Blessed
Virgin" which was also explained so mi
nutely and reveredly that non-Catholics
present admit that he gave them light
on a subject they did not understand be-
fore. Father Toilet spoke briefly after
Father O'Toole had concluded, and gave
a short instruction from one of the May
Blossoms used at the May devotions.
