LEADvILLE, COLO.
Events Of the Week in the Great
Colorado Camp.
Especial correspondence

| Leadville, Colo, Oct. 4.-Since our
last letter from Leadville was not
thrown in the waste basket, we have
been constrained to gather up few
more items, good, bad or Indifferent.
just as we meet them.
Well, to begin, the county Democratic
convention was held at the Knights of
Columbus hall The delegates from all
the precincts of the city were prompt
~ on hand. The famous old war horse
of the mountain tops, the Honorable
Peter Jennings. who for the past quar-
ter Of century has led the hosts to
victory and defeat, was there as usual.
with the reins well in hand, and the
slate made up as a sure guarantee of
victory, SO Peter said. Many of the
cool and conservative do not agree with
Peters political conclusion.
1t is claimed that three of the nom
lnees are socialists, that some more of
them are ward politicians, always look
ing for Office; indeed, that the whole
ticket, to put it mildly, was not chosen
with any desire to better the condi-
tons of Lake county or put the honest
man and sterling toiler into office. 1t
is moated about that the same old
gangster controlled the nominations as
of yore, and that the taxpayer must
again bend his neck to that element
that stands about on street corners and
looks wise. Be this as it may, nothing
good can be expected from officeholders
who constantly desire to live from the
public crib

Religious Notes and Personal.

Bishop Mstz stopped here on his wav
to Aspen last week. On last Sunday
morning he administered the sacrament
OF confirmation TO a large class and
also at Glenwood on Sunday evening.

On last Wednesday morning Miss
Mary Waters WAS buried with a high
mass from the Church of the Annun-
citation. Miss Waters had been ailing
for some time and finally underwent
a dangerous surgical operation, which
terminated fatally. Miss Waters was
q child Of st. Mary's school here. hav-
ing made her first holy communion
with band of boys and girls that
nave long since gave to other states.
The funeral was largely attended and
Father Gibbons paid beautiful trib-
ute TO the many virtues of this young
woman.
Last Sunday the Ladies' Altar and
Rosary society received Holy COM
munion at the o'clock mass in a body.
There was a large attendance-the
manifest fruit of the successful mis-
sion. The membership of the Young
Ladies Sodality has increased very
much since the mission-a good sign
that our young ladies are truly re-
ligious.
On last Sunday there was a solemn
nigh mass in our church. Father Gal
Tiger, celebrant; Father Gibbons. dea-
con, and Father Wolahan, sub deacon.
The sermon was preached by Father
Wolahan. and certainly the young
priest deserves much credit for his ef-
fort.

Speaking of the bishop-elect, Rev.
Father Victor F. Day, administrators of
the diocese of Helena since the death
of Bishop Brondel, said that Bishop
Carroll is a man of stately appearance,
a man of profound learning and an inn
pressive speaker. For ten years he has
been president of st. Joseph's college
in Dubuque and professor of mental
philosophy, Greek and German. He is
also one of the diocesan consultors of
the archdiocese of Dubuque.

consultors at Spokane soon after the
death of Bishop Brondel, prominent
priests outside of the body of consult
ccd he
would present Father CAROLS name

exalted position. =
Father Day said that he knew moth
ing as to the probable date of the new
bishops arrival in Helena.

When Verestchagin, the great Rus

of Pleyna upon canvas, one portion
showed the general headquarters tent,
before which the ground was strewn
with empty bottles. So you see the
Port Arthur story is not improbable.
But Yankee naval officers would new
er have been caught ncpping like
that.
Il will say that the Russian soldiers
are great fighters, they have shown
that at Plevna and at other places,
but IL remains TO be seen what they
can do thousands of miles from home
and backed by an inadequate and I'M
organized commissariat system. That
is a matter for conjecture.
las for foreign intervention. that
also is a matter of conjecture. No
one can tell how events may shape
themselves. The Japanese are a
piucky lot, wonderfully intelligent and
intuitive to a fine degree. They have
shown themselves splendid strate-

will win.
II probably shall not follow the
