only In Christ and that all persons must
look unto him for true enlightenment and
progress In conclusion he made the fol-

life. We have been moved to this by no
spirit of partisan narrowness, but by love
of Him and of them. love of country and
of humanity. May God be praised for
what has been done. May His blessing ever
rest upon this academy, on its teachers
and pupils, generation after generation.
And may they be in the life of our country

Christian Enlightenment.
Bishop Keane of Dubuque preached on
Christian Enlightenment" He spoke of
the deep interest to the people of St. Pat
rick's and to the Catholics of the country
of the dedication and anniversary celebra-
ton in progress at the church. saying it
was especially significant showing the
progress of religion in this country.
Now it is a commonplace thought" said
the speaker, that enlightenment is the
fundamental need of humanity. All agree
that it is necessary for the developing and
storing of the intellect for the forming of
character, for the guidance of progress for
the shaping of civilization. Enlightenment
is the absolutely necessary condition and in
Strumentalty for all the utilities of human
life. But let us determine clearly what is
meant by enlightenment. 1t means the
shining of the light of truth into the mind

MOTHER GETS MONEY
FOR THE DEATH OF HER SON..
FATHER ALLOWED BUT $500
BY THE COURT.

Probate Judge NJ. L. Aungst Thurs
day decided how the money paid for
the death of William p. Stevenson by
a traction, company at NorwallS should
be divided. The amount was $3,700.
The mother had raised the boy and
was divorced from the father, who
was claimed to be dissipated. The
conditions were shown up in a hearing
a few days ago.
Judge Aungst decided that the father
should have $500 and the mother
S3,400. Out of this later amount the
costs, funeral expenses, attorney fees,
ETC., will have to be paid, and it is
thought Mrs. Stevenson will have
about $500.
d. H. Stevenson, the father, was in
town yesterday and was stranded,
borrowing money from certain individ-
uals.

INVESTIGATING THE
GLEN ISLAND FIRE
WITNESSES PROGRESSED IGNoR-
ANcE OF THEncAusE.
Fire Pals Empty-Many Life Pre-.
servers Removed-Mate Had
No License.

New York, Dec. 22.-Six hours were
spent in examining the captain, pilot,
quartermaster, engineer and mate of
the ill-starred Starin line steamship
Glen Island today in an attempt to
discover the cause of the fire which,
a few minutes after midnight Dscem-
Der II, caused the destruction of the
side wheeler and the loss of two pas
sengers and eight of the crew. The
hearing took place in the White Hall
building before Steamboat Inspectors
Seeley and Mercer5au.
Although the witnesses professed
dense ignorance as to the cause of the
disaster, some interesting information
was brought out concerning the fire
appliances of the burned boat. Several
officers admitted that whereas G5 fire
pals were provided only four had
watsr in when the fire broke out. The
rest were empty because they were
hung in exposed positions and tn
water, had there been any in them,
would have frozen.
The chief engineer testified that the
Glen Island usually carried 2,023 life
preservers but that 500 had been re
moved at the opening of the winter
season. The mate who had full charge
of loading and unloading the steam.
ship, admitted that he had no mates
or any other kind of license. He was
hazy when asked to enumerata the
different kinds of cargo prohibited
on a passenger steamboat.
The stories of the witnesses threw
no new light upon the origin of the
fire or the events that followed the
destruction of the steamer.

MANY USES OF SALT.

Besides being such an essential part
of culinary art salt has many other
uses perhaps not generally known.
A pinch of salt on the tongue. fol-
lowed ten minutes after by a drink of
cold water, often cures sick head
ache.
Salt hardens the gums, makes the
teeth white and sweetens the breath
Salt added to the water in which cut
flowers stand keeps them fresh.
Salt used dry in the same manner as
snuff will do much to relieve colds,
hay fever, etc.
Salt in warm water If used for bath
ing tired eyes will be found very re-
freshing.
Salt and water will stop hemorrhage

SEARCHING FOR
BALTIC FLEET
TWO JAPANESE CRUISERS PUT IN
AT SINGAPORE.
Formidable Squadron on Its Way to
Give Battle to Admiral Ro-
jestvensEy.

Chicago, Dec. ga special cable
dispatch to the Daily News from it's
staff correspondent at Singapore says:
1.-TWO japanese converted cruisers, the
Nippon Maru and the Hong Kong
Maru, entered the Singapore strait
this morning and anchored in the
roadstead seven miles from Sinapora
city at noon. Chartering a launch
steamed out and was courteously re.
by the captain. He informed me that
the two cruisers were sea scouts OF
the Japanese battle fleet, which is com.
posed of two first class battleships,
two first class armored cruisers, two
second class cruisers and a fiotilla OF
y torpedo craft. These vessels are
now on their way to a certain place
where they intend to give battle to
part of the Baltic fleet.
According to the Japanese captain
the naval situation at Port Arthur be-
ing now settled and the Russian fleet
entirely disabled Admiral Togo has
turned his attention to the outcoming
feet. He declined to give any further
information but admitted that he
would go west and south and had
called here to communicate with the
Japanese consul. When informed that
| hoped to BE- permitted to meet and
accompany the Russian fleet, the cap
tain said: "Tell them we are waiting
for them. If you find them we will
| entertain you at dinner"
1t is thought herr that the Japanese

islands and will attempt to seize col
/ liers and boats carrying contraband
to the Russian fleet in these waters.
The Japanese cruisers left today at

formation and for the past ten days or
so. when two or three of the intoxi-
catants are landed the present Decem-
Der ratio per day is reached. Upon the
docket for the years wors there now
appear 1,76S names. Thirty-two more
arrests are needed to make the desir-
ed 1900 Nine days more are left to
reach this mark. or three and frac-
ton arrests a day. The number of ar
rests already reached surpasses by
about twenty last years total and last
years total was the largest ever made
in the history of the department.

TITLE CLEARED
TIC LARGE TRACT OF LAND ONCE
OWNED BY THE LATE JAY
GOULD.

White Plains, N. Y. Dec 22.-The
cancellation of lis pendens against
the executors of the estate of the late
Jay Gould was filed in County Clerk
Sutherland's Office today.
The order, which was signed by
Judge Patterson, in the supreme court
chambers in New York city, cancels
the lis pendes against a large tract
Of land owned by Mr.. Gould, includ-
ing Lyndenhurst, at Tarrytown, re-
Gently purchased by Miss Helen Gould.
In 1895 the Soldiers Orphans Home,
in st. Louis, brought proceedings
against Russell Sage and George How
ard and Helen Gould. to recover SILL
GOO of stock created by trust on the
security of bondholders of consolidat-
ed mortgages Of the Kansas Pacific
railroad. 1t was alleged by the Sol
diers Orphans Home that Gould had
no right to use the securities as they
were in trust. The court subsequently
ordered a discontinuance of the suit,
but the lis pendens was not cancelled
and cloud was thus left on the title
to the property which consists of
about $50 acres of land.
