HOLY ORDERS FOR CoLoRED MAN
Rev. J. Harry Dorsey to Be Made
Roman Catholic Priest.

Baltimore, May 31.-The June ordi-
nations at the cathedral, which will
take place June q. will have an added
interest from the fact that the second
colored man ever ordained to the Ro'
man Catholic priesthood in this coun-
try will receive holy orders on that
day at the hands of Cardinal Gibbons.
The colored candidate is Rev. J. Harry
Dorsey, student at St. Joseph's Sem.
mary. He was raised to the diacon-
ate last fall by Bishop Alfred A. Curtis.
The first colored man ordained in
this country was Rev. c. r. Uncles in
the cathedral December 13, 1891.
Father Uncles, who is a member OF
the Josephite order. is now stationed
in Delaware. Another cOlored priest,
Father lotion, who died few years
ago in Chicago from the effects of the
heat, was ordained abroad.
J. Harry Dorsey was born in this
city twenty-eight years ago, and was
educated at St. Paul Minn., under
Archbishop John Ireland. Father
Dorsey will labor among his own
people.

THOUGHT he COULD HIT A BANDIT

But His Target in This Case Was Too
James Preston, whose magazine
illustrations are we'll known, will
| leave Philadelphia next week on a
southern tour, which will include a
prospecting trip into one Of the wild
est sections Of Mexico. Pack mules
will be used to carry the supplies and
the point to be reached is twelve
days journey from the City OF Mexico,
! where the expedition will be fitted out.
Mr.. Preston was outlining his plans
to several friends the other day, when
one OF them suggested bandits and
asked the artist if he was a good shot.
"Well, I'll give you an Illustration
Of my prowess with the revolver" "
drawled Mr.. Preston. Several years
ago I was gathering material out in
Arizona and one day encountered a
rabbit. We came face to face at dis
tance Of about six feet, and the rabbit
set up on it's hind legs, seemingly pet
rified with fright. l pulled my re-
volver, aimed steadily and fired six
times in rapid succession. The rabbit
never budged. 1t was too much scared
to run away.
IT reloaded my trusty weapon and
crept closer. Then l blazed away
again until I had once more emptied
all the chambers. There sat the rab-
bit, unharmed by my fusillade. Just
then an Indian came along with a
crowbar and the rabbit darted down
hole. The Indian began humping
the earth and after awhile he reached
his arm down the hole and pulled the
rabbit out by the ears. With a quick
motion he twisted its neck and grave
ly handed it to me-
"But still that was a rabbit" con-
cluded Mr.. Preston, according to the
Philadelphia Press. "A bandit is big
