Catholics Not Dtscrfmtnated Against
and PrOseiyting = Forbidden
Father McENiEuon's Educa-
tiUHui Proposition.

The bureau Of in>ular affairs of the
war department has made public the
report OF Frank il. Bowen, acting gen
eral superintendent of public instruc-
tion for the Philippine islands, upon
the charges made in the United States
against the school system Of the isl
9nds alleging that ii was used as a
proselyting agency against Catholics
and generally used 10 the prejudice Of
Catholicism.
These charges were forwarded to
Manila and the reply was made to Act
ing Gov Wright
The report Of superintendent Bowen
is a general and specific denial of he
charges. He says that Of 20 persons
who have been division superintend-
ents only one has ever been a clergy
man. Three division superintendents
were appointed from a list submitted
by leaders of the Roman Catholic
church in the United States.
In this connection the report says:
''The question of the religious belief
Of applicants and appointees was never
considered until late in 1901 At that
time a special lot of applications,
gathered by the authorities of the
Roman Catholic church in the United
States. was sent TO the civil governor
of these islands and transmitted to
the general superintendentS. From
these special lists three division super
intendents and % teachers were APP
pointed. in reporting these appoint
ments TO the civil governor the gen
eral superintendent stated: I have
had much Giiiculty in finding people
in this lot Of applications who are pos
sessed of the educational prepare ton
and teaching experience which is re-
Guirea of other appointees in this de-
Yar;ment. Those who have not been
selected seem to be wholly insult
able"
The only departure from strict nom
sectarianism in the conduct of the
schools was a provision Of the Philip
pine commission, which made it law
mi for a priest OF minister of any es-
tabli>hed church in the pueblo where
a public school is situated to teach re-

BULL FOUGHT WE'LL.

AlligatOrs.
Third SauFIan Tries to Make on With
Calf, Bat IS Defeated by Jim
Carew-A Fight Worth
Seeing.

Jim CaTew, who lives ten miles above
Fort Bassinger, Fla, on the river, has
some fin. cattle, and the best Of the lot
he pastures in an inciosed pen near the
river. There were four COWS, bull
and two calves in the lot the other
morning when, hearing a terrible din,
he trotJed out with his gun to see what
allied his pets. Three gators had man
aged to get into the inclosnre from
the river side, and while one was stalk
ing a calf that he had managed to get
to the waters edge, the other rwo were
lighting the enraged cattle.
Gator No. l, the biggest of the lot
and an ugly customer, was fighting the
bull while No. was trying to keep
out of the way of the frequent and
furious rushes of the cows. No. 3 had
the calf in charge. 1t was bleating
loudly and this served TO infuriate the
cattle
The fight between the bull and his
antagonist was a furious and bloody
one The bull charged up to the sau-
rian, when the latter nimbly darted
aside and gave the bovine a terrible
blow with its tail that staggered him.
With a loud below of rage the bull
turned quickly and with good luck
hooked the gator on the side, half
turning him over. The saurian ragged
and beloved and finally managed to
get loose. He then struck the bull
again a sounding whack, half knock
ing him down. Following this he dart
ed up and caught the bull with his
jaws on the nose The bull beloved
with pain and stamped on the gators
head For a few minutes they plunged
around and then the bull got loose.
With more caution he plunged at the
gator and managed to gore him badly,
partly ripping his side open. The
gator had enough now and tried to
crawl away, but the bull kept on push
ing and gorlng till the gator was near

ligion for one-haIf hour three times a
week in the school building TO pupils
whose parents have expressed a wish
for such construction.
Concerning proselyting, the report
says:
Not only is no proselyting allowed
or attempted in any Of the public
schools. but inquiry of the leaders of
the four principal Protestant denomi-
nations here brings out the fact that
so far as is known by these leaders
there is not a native Protestant Sun
day school teacher in the entire arch
iPelago."
The statement that not one-third of
the Protestant teachers ever taught
a day before going 10 the Philippines
and that the Catholic teachers are sent
on TO the distant provinces is emphat-
ically denied.
Father McKinnon, a priest officially
connected with the public school sys-
TEN in Manila, who went to that place
as chaplain Of the First California
regiment at the outbreak Of the Span
ish-American war, has urged the au-
thorities of the Philippines church to
send 400 of the younger native priests
to America for a couple OF years train
ing in seminaries in the United States.
Father NcKinnon says he discussed
this plan with the late President Nc
Kinley, who approved it. as it was be-
lieved that in this way Filipino clergy
men would become imbued with the
broad spirit of American priesthood.
1t is believed possible that money for
carrying out this project could be
raised in America. It is estimated that
the seminary expense Of each priest
would be about $50 a year. The ma
tiyes are favorable to the plan. The
fact that the native priests speak a
different language from those in
America would be no hindrance, be-
cause all Catholic clergymen have
common knowledge of Latin. and be-
sides number of priests in the United
States speak Spanish.

A plate of hash proved more dead
ly to Alfred Hobgood than four
years experience as a soldier during
the war of the rebellion. He was
