BOARD OF, PARDONS
WILL MEET TODAY
Heavy Calendar of Cases Will Be Con-
sidered at Quarterly Meeting

The state board of pardons at the
state capitol today will consider at it's
quarterly meeting one of the heaviest
calendars of cases in its experience
The board, which consists of Gov. S. r.
Van SAINT, Chief Justice G. M. Start
and Attorney General w. J. Donahow-
er, has a calendar of twenty-five cases,
a number of them involving the future
of criminals who have sinned heavily
against the law and whom the courts
have sentenced to long terms in the
state prison at Saltwater
The case of William Chounard, the
Cass Lake murderer, who asks a COM
mutation from hanging to life impris-
onment, Will be considered Tuesday,
and among the other cases are those Of
the four Great Northern train robbers,
Link Thayer, Homer Minot, Charles
Hoffman and James Hall, who have
served five years of nineteen-year SEN
fences; James G. Nugent, convicted in
Wright county of murder in 1894 and
sent up for life, and Fred Whitaker,
sentenced in 1896 to seventeen years
for highway robbery committed in st.
Paul.
The session of the board of pardons
promises to be one of the busiest since
the substitution of the pardoning board
for the executive in exercising Glenn
ency in the cases of men convicted Of
crimes against the commonwealth.

The female bear, called Teddie first
Climbed the tree, and was followed by
Archie. The latter took unkindly to the
idea that Teddie was attracting so
much attention, and exercising his
greater strength hurled her from the
tree by a powerful blow. Teddie land

and dragged herself to corner of the
cage. She escaped without broken
bones.
Not satisfied with this performance
Archie gfowled loudly and struck the
roof of the cage several blows. AS the
roof showed no signs of giving way he
desisted. Climbing down the tree he
attacked the bars. These proved too
strong for him, however, but he spent
some time in otherwise demonstrating
the fact that he was in bad humor.
The frequent rains of late have made
the island the most popular early

NEWS OF THE. CITY

are Embellishments them IRISH with
a sprinkling of Germans. Altogether
there are los, 600 Catholics in New Zea-
land. They have four dioceses, four
bishops and an archbishop%
Although there is a secular system
of schools maintained by the state. the
Catholics conduct excellent schools
without state aid. And l am happy to
say that in the cities of New Zealand
you can count on your fingers the
Catholic children that attend the state
schools.
State inspects Catholic Schools
but we have obtained one thing
from the government,-.an it may be,
as hope, the keen edge of the wedge.
The state has undertaken to inspect
our schools officially. We find such in
spection a benefit; it stimulates our
teachers and keeps UP the standard of
our schools. The government inspect
ors respect~our schools and even SYM
pathize with the ability and self-sacri-
fee of@our teachers. These are all re-
1igious-the brothers or sisters of vari-
Gus orders. Some of our schools have
received the highest marks = higher
than those of any government school.
by, thus providing schools and
teachers at our own expense, we save
the government about 6 SO. 00G-$300,
06p-eyery year. We hope that we shall
ultimately get back a part Of this; one
half of it would satisfy us. With gov
eminent aid to the extent of one-halt
our expenses, our schools would in
crease and prosper wonderfully. We
think it manifestly unjust to fine us
10000 a year because We teach one
subject more than the state teaches, and
that the most important subject of all
I mean religion.
Public sentiment is turning in our
favor upon this point. A wave Of dis
content at the attitude of the govern
| ment is slowly spreading. People are
contrasting the qualities of the state
school pupils with the superior refine
ment, the greater moral culture, of our
pupils.
I'VE shall never divorce religion from
secular education and we are gaining
the sympathy and admiration of our
educational rivals.
Our Catholic population, as whole,
is practical Only among the younger
generation do we notice any indiffer-
ence to their religious obligations. Most
of our people attend church with rea-
sonable regularity. and very, very few
fail to observe their Easter duties. Our
church is fiourishing.s 1t is growing
faster than. are. the other churches
about u.s.
"All4this, II am sure, will please you,
because there is nothing that so graft
fies a true Catholic as the welfare OF
his holy faith. So 1 trust that you will
kindly say prayer for the church of
New Zealand. In this hope, pray, that
all blessings may come to you and your
beautiful city

AFTER SCHOOL SITE
First and Second Warders Pick
Locations

Although the bonds for the erection
of the new high school in the eastern
part Of the city have not yet been
voted, it is evident that there will be
some difficulty in choosing a location.
The Second ward will come forward
with a claim that the best location for
the school is, somewhere in the Vicin-
1ty of Arcade and Minnehaha streets,
while many of the First wafders be-
lieve the proper location is somewhere
near Minnehaha and Burr streets.
The choice of the location lies with
Mayor Smith and President Holman,
of the board of school inspectors, and
it is altogether likely that the choice
will be made in favor Of one of the two
locations mentioned.
The question as to the issue Of the
bonds will not come in the regular
course until July, when the assembly
holds its next regular session. and it is
not likely that the board of aldermen
will act until the first Tuesday in Au-
gust. The resolution authorizing the
issuance of the bonds is so worded that
the school inspectors will be compell-
ed to pay for the site out of it's own
funds, there being no provision that
the entire amount be expended for
school buildings.

Brown to his home, in the hope that
