Diplomatic Silence.

story of Benjamin Franklin that is
probably new to most American read.
ers. 1t was first related by Mons.
Gabriel Hanotaux, formerly Minister
of Foreign Affairs of France. at q
Fourth Of July banquet held by the
American Chamber of Commerce at
Paris.
When Franklin arrived in France
he was somewhat astonished at the
luxury, noise and hustle of the court
of Versailles The courtiers, who
are by nature effervescent and vola-
tile, made much ado over him. He
was himself inclined to be taciturn.
The Society OF Friends, to which he
belonged, had, as you know, estab-
lished a rule of silence. Vergennes,
the French Minister of Foreign Az
fairs, also was of a reserved, circum-
spect, uncommunicative nature.
The introducer, having presented
Franklin, withdrew. The two states
men. left alone, bowed to each other.
Vergennes, with a gesture, invited
Franklin to be seated, and then
waited. Franklin, however, said not
a word. Probably he wished to put
his companions gravity to the test
the French had always been pictured
to him as so loquacious.
The French minister felt that he
was on the verge of overstepping the
rules of courtesy and hospitality.
He therefore took out his snuff-box
and invited Franklin to take a pinch
of snuff.
Franklin complied, reflected an
instant, and took his snuff in silence.
Vergennes, on his part, did the same,
and then the compliment was re-
turned. After brief flash of silence
Franklin rose; so did Vergennes,
whereupon, after farewell obei-
sance, they parted. This was the en-
tire sum and substance of their first
interview, which, happily. was to be
followed by others of Aore fruitful
character.

According to the statement of
Maxson, his train stopped an hour at
Lancho. While there rumors were
received that the Yaquis were upon
the warpath and that the few peo-
pie In the neighborhood of the rail-
road were in danger. The station

A Pottawatomic Who Spoke in the
Tongue OF His Fathers in Rome.

A Pottawatomie Who Spoke in the
Tongue Of His Fathers in Rome.
To be the first full blood Indian to
become Roman Catholic priest is
the unusual distinction of the Rev.
Father Albert Negahnquet OF Kan
sas, now conducting religious lapors
among his fellow racemen In OkIp-
homa and Indian Territory. SO far
as now known Father Nehagnquet is
the only living Roman Catholic priest
who is full blood Indian.
Father Negahnquet was born on
the Pottawatomie Reservation near
St. Mary's, this State, in 1877. Soon
afterward he was brought to Topeka
by his parents, and in the Church of
the Assumption here he was baptized.
He was the youngest of family of
ten children.
His parents and members of the
family removed to Pottawatomie
County, Oklahoma, where there are
now many members OF that tribe.
In the southern part of that county
the Catholics in an early day estab-
lished great community-a menas-
terry schools and the like. The mis-
sionaries of that church naturally
came and worked among the Indians
near by. Father Negahnquet, as a
boy, was sent to the school. He was
an interesting child, readily tracta-
BILE, and he applied himself to his
studies. Mother Katherine Drexel.
daughter of the millionaire Drexel. of
Philadelphia, on the occasion of one
of her periodical visits, took notice
OF this particular little Indian boy.
She never forgot him, and when he
became old enough she sent him to
the large Indian school at Carlisle,
Pa. Later he was transferred TO the
Catholic College at Washington, d.
c., with the purpose in view OF edu-
eating him for the priesthood.
He was the honor man at Wash
ington, and from there he went ia
Rome. He studied philosophy and
theology there in the Propaganda
College, being one year in the Col
lege of the Pope. Before the dspar-
ture from Rome of priests of this
class it is customary for each in his
mother tongue to give an address.
1t must have been strange when the
young American Indian priest came
forward and in the tongue of his
fathers, the warlike Pottawatomies,
spoke
Then Father Negahnquet sailed
away to Oklahoma Territory, and for
a few weeks was the guest of his
parents in their rude home. Soon
afterward he sang the first mass Civ
en- by full blood Indian priest on
American soil, in the big Catholic
Church at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
His conservation was by Bishop The
ophile Meerschaert, of Guthrie, Okla
homa. The Bishop spoke proudly of
the honor of consecrating the first
Indian priest and of having him in
that diocese.
Since coming back to America,
three years ago, Father Negahnquet
has labored faithfully among his peo-
pie, and those efforts have been well
rewarded. Topeka Capital.
