a revolver and threatening them if his

The question OF how. much the owner
OF property will have TO pay to redeem
same from the forfeited tax sale held
last spring under the law Of 1899 will
soon be decided. The matter was
argued before the Supreme court last
Monday by Attorney General Douglas
on behalf OF the state and Sylvester
Kepp, OF Ramsey county. in his own be-
half. The question at issue was whether
the party redeeming the land should
pay the amount it was bid ia for or the
full amount of the Judgment with in
terest. The State contends that the
owner should pay the full amount of
the Judgment and Mr.. Kepp holds that
the owner should be allowed to redeem
for the amount the property was sold
for. The Court took the matter under
advisement and will probably render a
decision soon. The District Court OF
Ramsey county decided against the
state.

extirpation of heresy. It is only fair to
say that in the intention of Dominic him
self the extirpation of heresy did not
mean the extirpation of heretics. The
Albigensians had almost triumphed in
Provence in the year 1901, when Dominic,
a CastiIian canon of the order of st. Au-
gustfne, arrived from Spain in the COM
pany of a bishop charged with a politi-
cal mission The Jealous Spaniard at
once. perceived that the heresy which ne
detested with all his heart could not
be successfully comhateds by a clergy
whose lives bore nol witness to the oil

motion he set to work to assist lin the

which have ever since been the insignia
of the Dominicans
Obeying a command of the Blessed
Virgin Mary, made to him in a vision,
Dominic ordained that his spiritual sub
jects should wear within their converts
a white wooden tunic reaching to the
heels, girded with a cord, and gar
ment of the same color and material
covering the shoulders and falling to the
feet before and behind, but open at the
sides, called a scapular. For preaching,
and whenever they go out. their rule is
to wear the ample black cloak and hood
which procured for them in medieval
England the name of Black Friars.
At the time when the Order of Preach
ers formed its nucleus at Lyons, wide
divergence in ritual was recognized IN dlfE
,ferent countries within the Catholk
church The Sarun rite, mueh moro
elaboate than that now practiced in Ro
man Catholic churches, was observed
through the southern half of England.
York and Paris had each its own strons-
ly marked ceremonial pecuhalities. The

Dominican order followed the usage OF
Lyons When after the Protestant Ret-

order. Hence to this day the attendants

lives. Tie latter was the code of the
Augustinian Order. of which Dominic
had been a member, which rule has been
modified in the succeeding six hundred
years only to adapt it to the needs
of men whose first DUTY is to preach
to the people, in contrast with the more
commemorative life of the monks. As to
diet and regimen, the Dominican rule
was made extremely severe, the Use
of flesh meat being forbidden except
on Sundays, feast days and during the
season between Easter and Whitsun-
day. At the same time the friar preach
ers were obliged to the performance of
the divine office, both by day and by
night This combined with diet OF
fish and vegetables and the obligations
of constant preaching, made the life of
a dominican convent-not monastery-an
exceedingly hard one.
ORIGIN OF THE BLACK FRIARS.
With Dominic, and Francis also, began
the new institution of religious mend1-
cancy in the church. The monasteries
had until then been property holding
corporations, the revenue of their lands
supplying their members with food and
clothing The Dominican vow of poverty
precluded such financial arrangements.
They could own nothing, and were cblig-
ed by their constitution to support their
converts by asking aims of those 10
whom they spiritually miniStered. An
other variation from the original Angus
tinian rule was made in the lifetime OF
the founder, when the flowing black robe
was abandoned for the White and black

in the physical unfitness of natives of
balmy Provence for this climate, but
also in the special conditions of the
Dominican rule. 1t is well known that
cold climate demands a meat diet, and
this is just what is forbidden to Domin-

life of their order.

language monk and "friar' are UNI

their time in church services, study and

monial worship is the most important of

CHILD LABOR IN ALABAMA.

The Legislature of That state DO
Not Believe in Protecting Children.
The child labor bill in Alabama was
defeated in the committee room.
Never having reached the house, it
can only be conjectured what its fate
would have been before the entire
body. Judging by the attitude of the
committee that had the bill under
consideration, it would be safe to as
sumo that it would have been defeated
by an Overwhelming vote.
The condition of the textile OPP
eratives in Alabama is equally as bad
If not worse-than in the noted Car
olinas. In fact, the writer, in con-
versation with an operative who was
a native of the Carolinas, and had re-
Gently moved into Alabama, was as
sured that the conditions were far
worse than ever existed in his native
state, and his statement was verified
by that of his wife.
In one town that I visited found
little children, not yet eight years
old, that had ben at work in the mills
for over a year, whose income was 20
cents a day. This was not an excep-
tional case, for I had visited six fam
lies and found the same thing true in
three of the six families visited. In
one instance I found a widow that had
five children. Two of them she had
been forced to give away to other
people, who would care for and clothe
them, she being unable to do so,
with her meagre income of IS cents
per day The oldest, girl of twelve,
was working in the same mill with her
mother, and was paid between 30 and
40 cents per day. The mother, in or
der to do her work, was obliged to
take with her into the mill two other
little ones, who, as I passed them in
the mill, was playing around the ma
chinery, each moment in danger OF
its clothing being caught and it's un-
fortunate little body crushed to death.
AS looked upon this mother at work
in the mill, with her babies around
]ter, and afterwards hearing the pitt
full story, told with tears in her eyes,
of her little ones given away, could
not help but contrast this scene with
those of slavery days, when the child
was sold from it's mothers breast,
and the present day, when the mother
must, with her own hands, give away
her offspring. ! could not help but
think that the auction block would
be preferable to this mother, for she
could at leasttrealize something under
that system, and thereby be enabled!

THE NEW TOMBSTONE
The Progress of the Work of Its
 Rehabilitation.

AIr. l.. B. Gage. who has charge of the reopeninS of the mines which made Tombstone famous and which first called wide attention to Ari- zona as a region of great mineral resources, arrived in the city yester- day morning from the south. Speak ing last night of the progress of the work. he said it was going on in the most satisfactory manner. He first se- cured for the Tombstone Con solidated Mines company the most valuable claims and four months and a half ago began the sinking of shaft on the Flora Morrison, which lies in the best part of -That was known as the Contention group and finme- diately south of the Grand Central, of which everybody has heard.
 Day before yesterday the water level was reached at q depth of 570 feet and work was accomplished which at the beginning was predicted would occupy q year. Besides this about 900 feet of old levels were cleaned out. It was found impracticable to make use of the nearest shaft to this point. A fire which had destroyed the upper works had burned out the timberinS in the shaft and extensive caVe-ins mad occurred. The work of sinking was undertaken as near to this smart as was consistent with safety.
 The new shaft is 10x26 feet and within the timbers is Sx23. The tiTnberins has all been done. It will be q four-com- partment shaft. Two will be occupied by the pumping plant and two for working. The pumping machinery will be in place by March 1. According tD the contract the machinery should be on the ground by February 1, but it is quite probable that it will be delayed.
 Fifty men have been employed in the work that has been going on. When the pumps are in and operations arI fully begun at least 300 men will bJ employed in the work now begun. OtheI shafts will be sunk on other portions of the group as soon as possible.
 Mr. Gage says that Tombstone is all ready taking on new life. In the bark est days of the camp and when th4-new camp al Pearce was started up many of the frame buildings were removed there. The want of them is now being felt and Tombstone is further enlivenei by the sound of the saw and the ham mer. Cowboys come into town as they used to do and add to it's livelipess. MT. Gage feels a sentimental as twell as business interest in the rehahilita- ton of Tombstone. He lived there as early as 1878 and all through it's palmy days. He remembers when it had d population of 5000, more than ; any other town in Arizona has now.i ac- cordinS to the census, and when every house and every room was filled and it was by far the liveliest town in the territory. It is not beyond the easy reach of probabilities that those times will come again.
