will follow some of the lectures and courses
in the Catholic University, particularly
those who want to specialize in any branch
OF study All specialists in the institution
will study for the doctorate In theology Of
the Catholic University. Most of the stu
dents will prepare themselves for future
work in the various educational institu-
tions conducted by the Congregation OF the
Holy Cross in both the New and the Old
World, or they will prepare themselves for
missionary and cognate work.
In connection with the college. Very
Rev. John A. Zahm, C. S. p. the provin-
cial, proposes organizing at Notre Dame
University special school for candidates
for the priesthood who have not the means
of educating themselves. Many young
men who are eager to devote themselves
to the service of the church of God are
often unable to do so because their par
ents cannot meet the heavy expenses incl
dent to the long and arduous courses of
study through which the students must
pass before they can be raised to the dig
nifty and station of the priesthood and "a
helping hand will be extended these ambi-
tious and deserving youths.
The Holy Cross congregation was the
third religious order to establish a house
of studies in connection with the Catholic
University, opening in 1895 in rented quar-
ters in Broekland in the immediate vi
cinity of the university. The size of their
house, which accommodated fifteen stu
dents, became entirely inadequate to meet
the increasing demands fully year ago
Fifteen students have already arrived for
this years work from Notre Dame Uni
versity, Ind, and ten others are expected
from Canada in few days. An increase
in the faculty of the college will shortly
be made

narrow escape from death yesterday.
Mounted on spirited bay she was rid

the beach. her hose SHE'D and threw her
violently from the saddle.
She retained her grasp on the reins and
succeeded in throwing the horse, but be-
fore she could gain full control Ct it the
animal jumped to his feet and plunged vio-
lently down the hill. The folds of Mrs
Beach's riding habit had become entan-
gled in the pommel of the saddle, and she
was dragged along the ground at the side
of the runaway horse. Half way down the
hill the fastenings of the skirt gave way
and Mrs. Beach was thrown to the side of
the road. She was unconscious, and lay in
the road for some, time before anyone dis
covered her. sSheg was taken to her cot

WHISKY COMBINE INTERESTS
Prospects of Failure in organizing
sgfiS1t II Trnst

LOUISVILLE. KY, Oct. 12.-Whisky
men are today discussing story from an
authentic source that reached this city, to
the effect that the distilIing company of
America known as the New York whisky
combine had not yet been fully consum-
mated.
This is what has been known as the big
whisky trust to distinguish it from the
Spirits Trust the buorbon combine, and
two more lesser lights in the spirits
world, which have been formed into one
vast combine, capitalized at S125, ZOO, coo.
1t was generally understood that the big
trust had been put through according to
programme, but it is now stated that the
Whitney interests of New York are con-
Quoting rigid investigation into the va
rious properties involved, which may re-
suit In an overthrow of the big combine.
Up to date all the smaller companies have
done business regardless of the bigger con-
Germs. which lends color to the report that
there is a hitch in the proceedings.

AFTER A HERMIT's MONEY.
Searchers Tear His Cabin to Pieces
Looking for Wealth.

VINELAND. N. j.. Oct 12.-This place
is stirred up over the search Of fortune
hunters for the supposed wealth of James
Albert Grimes. the hermit, who was
known as "Old Grimes" Before Grimes
died he exhibited to two neighbors a large
roll of money but when his cabin, on the
outskirts Of Vineland, was searched aft
er his body was found, not a dollar was
discovered.
Enquiry was made of his relatives to
ascertain if he had any money Rev. F.
B. Grimes, of Keene, N. H., shed some
light On the subject when he told of the
strange disappearance of his brother years
ago. 1t was the old story of disappointed
love. Grimes was Tilted and, taking his
wealth, which was considerable, he went
to the woods of South Jersey and lived
alone.
This letter has set the neighborhood
wild and hunters after his supposed
wealth have literally torn his cabin to
pieces and dug the surrounding earth full
OF holes. Nothing has been found, but the
search continues.

ILLITERACY IN LUZoN.
Said to BE Less Per Capita Than in
Massachusetts

NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct 1a-Arch-
bishop P. L. Chapelle, Apostolic Delegate
to the Philippines, last night announced
that he was using every effort to leave
here via San Francisco for Manila within
the next month.
L shall attempt" he said. Ito accom-
plish the paciication of the islands. I
have discussed the situation with Presi-
dent Mckinley, and there is a thorough
understanding between us. 1 shall ap-
point a number Of bishops for the ecc,e-
siastical management of the islands"
The attention of the archbishop was
called to recent Washington special in
which it was announced that President
Mckinley would appoint him Government
trustee Of the interests acquired by this
Government in the church property by
cession OF the Queens possessions to this
country.
That is erroneous" said his grace.
The church property in the Philippines
belongs exclusively to the church The
queen and Government of Spain had not
one cent OF interest in that property, and
the united States therefore acquired moth
ing. The priests have been in Luzon for
300 years. Naturally, they have aeouir-
cd mcch property, as well as influence.
and In that time they have civilized the
people"
Here his grace made surprising state
ment:
The per capita illiteracy of the island
OF Luzon is less than that of the State of
Massachusetts,
Continuing, be said:
Instead of being Government trus-
tee OF acquired interests in church prop
erty. my work viii be rather to prove IT,
ties to Droperty"
