this question he will find the true
causes for the opposition against the
four great orders. There are Pom

shafts at the strongest bulwarks. The

For years, in fact, ever since Mother
Mary Catherine forsooll society to be-
come a black-robed Sister and then
founded the Order of the"Blessed Sac
rament." she has interested herself in
the education. both religious and other
wise, of the Indians.
Her latest project is to establish a
mission school for the members of the
Navajo tribe, in Arizona. Already she
has her plan and more than 100000
will be spent upon the main building
of the institution alone.
The undertaking is most difficult.
But nothing seems to daunt Mother
Catherine, and within comparatively
short time, due to her efforts, the saw
ages will learn the principles of the
Christian religion.
What to the social world undoubted-
ly will make the announcement Of

aided in every possible way by her
niece. Miss Josephine Drexel. who is
most prominent socially, both i'll New

caused renewal of the reports that
Miss Josephine is to emulate the eX-

These islands had become too great n

Franciscan friar, presented himself to
the King, and on his knees pleaded for
the recalling Of the decree. He pleaded
so eloquently in behalf of the poor
Filipinos, who would lose the faith if
Spain abandoned the islands, that the
King relented and, placing his hand on
the shoulder of the llneeling friar, said:
"Go, Father Moraga; God bless you.
For the faith will retain the islands,

JUEN AND DEACON
TESLA IN A SCRAP

Deacon Tesla and Harry Juen met
yesterday forenoon on Merchant street.
The beginning of the meeting was only
incidental to the settlement of finan-
cial matter connected with the Deacon's
paper. Afterwards they branched off
onto politics and soon the atmosphere
became heated. Juen declared that
Tesla was a Home Ruler and the
Deacon denied that he was anything
but Democrat, Juen iterated his
statement and declared further that
Tesla had no right to participate in
the councils of the Democrats. Ac-
cording to the Deacon Juen asked
whether he had made a certain state
ment regarding himself on the side
walk below the Waverley Hall after
the Monday night meeting of the Demo-
Gratis Tesla declared that Juen had
heard Alright. The lie was passed and
