THE FRiAR ORDERS
Said to BE Gaining Much Strength in
Cuba.

Havana, April 24.-There lis consider
able public criticism of the Catholic
church authorities OH the grounds of
alleged extravaganza and that tho
friar orders are being strongly re-es-
tablished in Cuba. The church officials
deny the charge of extravaganza and
instance the case of Archbishop
Chapelle the apostolic delegate for
Cuba, who has no emolument or COM
pensation for his expenses except his
salary as archbishop of New Orleans.
They say they deplore the tendency To
intidenlity among the Cubans and add
that they are endeavoricg to check it
by wedding out any improper or in
competent membership OF the priest
hood.
Some CT the orders which We're dis
organized during the revolutionary
period have now been assigned homes
in church buildings here. The titles to
these properties, however, continue 10

hope that more ard more of our people
who dwell far OFF will appreciate its
really marvellous character. Incident
ally. / should like to point out that
sometime people will awake to the fact
that the park has special beauties to be
seen in winter, and any person who
can go through it in that season on
skis, will enjoy himself as he scarcely
could elsewhere. ! wish especially to
congratulate the people of NJ ontana,
Wyoming and Idaho. and notably you
of Gardner. and Cinnabar and the inn
mediate outskirts of the park. for the
way in which you heartily co-operated
with the superintendent to prevent acts
of vandalism and destruction.
The preservation of the forests is, of
course, the matter OF prime Importance
in every preserve of this character. In
this region of the Rocky mountains and
the great plains THE problem of the wa
ter supply is the most important part of
the home-ipaker's office. Congress- has
not in recent years done anything more
important than passing the irrigation bill
and nothing more essential to the preser
Vation OF the water supply than they
make In the preservation of the forests
Montana has in its water supply a sourc4
touched This water power will be seri-
ousy impaired IL ample protection is not
given the forests.
Therefore, this park. like the forest
reserves generally is. of the utmost ad-
vantage to the country around from the
merely utilita1'ian point of view. But of
course this park also, because of its pecu-
liar features. is to be reserved as a beauti-
full playground
Il have been literally astounded at the
enormous quantities of elk and at the
number of deer antelope and mountain
sheep, which have seen on their winter
ing ground, ana the deer and sheep in par
ticuiar are quite as tame as range stock.
Buffalo are being preserved. I wish very
much that the government could provide
somewhere for an experimental breeding
station of eross-bre eds between buffalo
and the common cutie. If these cross
breeds could be successfully perpetuated
We could have amin ais which would pro
duce a robe quite az good as the old buff
falo robe with while Il 20 years ago every
