organizing a stock company for the
purpose of putting in a gas lighting

from the observations of those who
have looked into the matter 1T would
seem that there u.s. or would be, ample

The splendid weather of the past few
days has made a great change in the
appearance of the building enterprises
in the city. The government building
is reaching a point where its proper
tions are becoming attractive to the
beholder and the site presents a fairly
good outline of the finished structure
to the spectator. The Masonic temple
is being pushed right along and will
be enclosed in short time if the
weather continues good. The Wilkins
Holderness block is already past the
first story. In few days there will
be several more brick buildings in pro-
cess of construction, among them the
new engine house and the Holcomb
building and also the new Gibson
block on Pine street.

Potato digging is now going on. Here
tofore the weather has been so damp
and the ground so soft and muddy that
digging was almost impossible. This
crop is disappointing to many. The
growth of the potatoes this season was
exceptional, the tubers being numerous
in the hill, large, smooth and fine look
ing. Up to about August first the crop
was never finer; but the long continued
rains caused the potatoes to rot in the
ground more especially the late planted
ones of certain varieties. The crop sui
fered most on low. level land, having
clay sub-soil. In some localities the loss
is almost complete, and farmers will
have to buy potatoes to supply their ta-
bles. On sandy soil and land we'll
drained the early planted crop is still
in good condition. and there is a fair
supply on the market at about IS cents
per bushel.

Fort Dodge. Oct. 13.-The Corpus
Christi Academy, began by the late
Bishop Lenihan of Cheyenne. Wyo,
when he was pastor Of the Corpus
Christi church of this city, was for
mally dedicated by Bishop Garrigan, of
Sioux City, at 10 o'clock Sunday morn
ing. The dedicatory ceremonies, which
were simple and according to the ritual
of the Catholic church, were attended
by a large gathering, including school
children and many non-Catholics.
Following the ceremonies high mass
was celebrated at Corpus Christi church
at which Bishop Garrigan addressed q
large audience composed of many de-
nominations besides Catholic. In his
address the bishop expressed his appre-
citation of the zeal shown by the Catho-
lies of the city in building the school
and also dwelt for some time in an
earnest appeal to Catholics to remain
firm to their church lat this time when
all are surrounded by an atmosphere
that is anything but Catholic. The
latter part of his address, and the part
to which he gave the most time, was his
own version of the difference between
Catholic schools and the "so-calleo
public schools" What does a man de-
rive said the speaker, III he gains the
whole world and loses his own soul
The Catholic school is founded on the
same principles as the Catholic faith.
While admit that the so-called public
schools are intellectually advanced over
the parochial schools, I believe the lat-
ter accomplished the greater end. The.
church aims to fit its children for life.
The Catholic school is in harmony with
the teachings of the church and there
fore prepares it's pupils for the walks
of life both spiritually and materially.

dams of Chicago chanpioned the saloon
in public address today. She would

that civilization had gone wrong by en-
forcing too much repression of the in
dividual, the head of Hull House con-
tinued:
Neither the saloons nor the theaters.
with all their attendant evils, do as
much harm, to my mind as the deaden-
ing monotony of unrelieved toll" and
the audience signified its approval by
burst of applause
1T seems to me that people have been
confused in their discussion of the sa-
loon question. The sale of liquor should
be limited, not abolished. for the only
social relaxation that some workers OBJ
tain is in the saloon Darlor. It is to
them what dinner. parties are to DIFF
ferent class. Some one might just as
well say to these diners: I think that
you drink too much at your dinners, 50
they must stop Fancy what an out
cry would be raised about social and
individual rights and all the rest of it.
s 1T is much the same with the police
man. He is tied down by such a strict
code of discipline that any slight devia
ton from it is an offense- The more ar
rests he makes-at least this is so in
Chicago-the better he is paid
