A GREAT INSTITUTION.
Interesting Facts In Connection With The
Catholic University.

Catholic University.
a United States senator from the |
West paid visit to the Catholic uni
versity ut Washington last week, and
as he walked about the grounds and |
through the various institutions that |
make up the marvellous cluster of
buildings he remarked. well, you
Catholics must be very sure of the
future. You have laid the foundation
of one of the most remarkable centers
of religious activity in the world" 1t
is this very impression that is made
on any stranger. A discerning OBJ
server sees in the gathering of all the
eminent religious communities about
the central Divinity Building just the
elements that make for the greatest
progress. There is no very great ac-
tivity without competition, and there
is no keenness of thought without fric-
ton of minds. The diocesan activities
are set over against the religious abili-
ties and the Sulpicians and the Fran
ciscans and Dominicans and the Paul
lists and the Holy Cross and the Mar
lists have the best opportunities to
sharpen their swords and cross their
lances in their intellectual bouts. In
the grouping of buildings there are
eleven institutions and they represent
with endowments and investment
very nearly $5,O0O,00O. and there is
no place in this country, and indeed
in many other countries. where there
is such a concentration of intellectual
and spiritual energies. The present
administration seems to be determined
to make the university life of practi-
cal avail to all the Catholics in the
country. The average Catholic is apt
to look on the existence of such a re-
ligious center as thing apart for
which he is not responsible and from
which he is to derive no benefit. A
policy in which the advantages of the
university will be brought home to
every Catholic in the country will be
affirmed, and while the highest stand
ards are sought, vet the benefits of
the learning and scholarship will be
extended throughout the entire Cath
Ole body. The appointment of three
American priests to the chairs of Nor
al Theology Archaeology and of
Church History is step in this d.
rectiOn. Another manifestation of
this same spirit is the desire expressed
to the knights of Columbus that when
they make the presentation of their
fund of $4,000 for the establishment
of the chair of Secular History they
make it as publicly and as ceremoni-
orsly as possible. He suggested that
there be a great gathering of the rep
lrsentative knights from all over the
country at the university ideals. The
latest addition to the university clus-
ter. the apostolic mission house, for
which Father Doyle is gathering the
funds. is pre-eminently in accord with
this policy. The missionaries who got
their training ut this center are to go
right back among the people and bring
the Catholic and non-Catholic alike
the saving truths of Salvation. The
observation Of the United States SEN
ntOr that the Church is building more
wisely than she knows, is not far

CHAPTER XVI.
YORKTOWN

1t was gray dawn when She rode
no stir about the premises. and she
found the stablc-door open, as she
had left it. While she was putting
up her horse and Slipping back to her
room the British We're returning from
their fruitlesS attack. That afternoon,
when Bessemer rode out from among
the trenches and redoubts of York
the fortified town, he little suspected
that it was this girl who had COM
passed his defeat.
The Ellerys found Edward quite as
i'll as Bessemer's letter had led them
to suppose, and for the next few
weeks their hands were full with
nursing him. When they arrived the
town wore an air of careless ease.
Young officers in gay uniforms swag
gered through it's street, their talk
loud boasts of what would DE done
when reinforccments from Sir Henry
Clinton arrived or when the British
fleet came; but gradually all this
changed. One day hope ran high; the
British fleet had been sighted; it
was coming; the next. there was the
bottomlcss pit of despair. The fleet
was DE Grasses.
Next came information Of Wash
ington's arrival; then news that the
French and American forces were
marching forward from Williams
burg. On the twenty-eighth the town
was thrown into a panic. The front
column of the approaching armies
had been sighted. Orderlies dashed
hither and thither; the lines of SOL
diery We're put in motion; the man
ming of the works was strengthened.
The besiegers came: the British aban-
doned their outer works and huddled
within the intrenchments; the siege
had begun.
During all the worry and excite
ment of these troublous times Besse-
mer did not neglect Jane nor fail
to look after her comfort as we'll as
he could. 1t was no secret among
those high enough up to know that,
had CORVALLIS followed the advice of
his colonel of dragons, he would
have made bold dash out of York
town ere the allied forces had q
chance to pen him up. Even now Bes-
semer begged his commander to make
the attempt, and so far prevailed as
to win from him permission to make
the first essay.
Returning from the conference with
| his chief he stoned to see Jane and
took her into his confidence sufh.
GENTLY to tell her something of the
enterprise he had on foot.
eff we succeed, sweetheart he

tain them. The horses head was
not turned homeward; her mission
was accomplished, and the reaction
had set in. What would Edward, what
would Bessemer, say if they knew
what she had done? They would look
upon her as traitor.
Yet, did she regret what she had
done: From her aunt's standpoint,
from the standpoint of any of her
llinspeople but Edward, had she not
the right to rejoice if she had indeed
saved the American army? She re-
called Col. Jocelyn's words, that there
was no calculating the service she had
rendered her country in saving the
army from such an attack. Her coun-
try? Yes, it was her country.
Off in the distance panther had
set up an insidious, persistent cry.
For awhile it was the only sound
which broke through the pouring
rain and sobbing wind: but presently
there came another sound, a heavy
sound that shook the ground. The
British were approaching. She drew

ing, laid her hand upon Beetles bri-
die. The sound came closer. The
front ranks were up to her now.
There was clanking of spurs: the

came. on and on and on: until at
length the rear-g'ard had gone by,

Then she mounted again her clumsy

A Tax Computation.

A little taxation problem is about
to be presented in Lyon county, that
will undoubtedly end in the courts be-
ing called upon to decide a brani
new point Of law
In Dayton there is on record a deed
for some $4,000 worth of property.
The deed upon it's face is absolute,
with no conditions or ornaments; nut
it has come to the knowledge of the
Commissioners, that interest is being
paid upon the deed, which makes it
practically a mortgage; so it is pro
posed to assess it as a mortgage. II
is proposed to show that the deed is
not actually genuine, but is given tc
evade double taxation.
