DOWN COMES FATHER CURRY
TO SAY THAT SETTLEMENT
WORKERS ARE FREAKS.

Their Calling Is New Way OF Making q
IAving without Capital or Brains
They Shake Down Golden Apples for
Self and Tear the Hearts OF the Poor.
The Rev, Father James B. Curry, pastor
OF st. Jamess Roman Catholic Church,
on James street, comes back at the settle
ment workers with some pretty hard
knocks in a pamphlet which made its
appearance yesterday. The pamphlet is
entitled What the Settlement Clubs
Stand For
The writer says that settlement work
il a new way OF earning living that
requires no capital or brains, but little
energy, and returns a large and certain
financial profit.
THE settlement idea is a tree OF many
golden apples" the little book says.
Every shake Of its overladen branches
brings down a shower OF ripe golden
fruit. Some little OF the downpour falls
outside the walls, but the shower is
thickest within, where this new humani-
tartan priesthood and its vestals gather
in rich harvests.'
The writer saws that what he objects
to most in settlement work is the attempts
to wean Catholic children from their
faith. The attempts are seductive, he
saws, and wean the heart Of the child
away from old traditions, make him dis.
satisfied with his home and ashamed OF
his parents, his ancestry and his faith.
= before long the child OF simple faith
and contented mind becomes the apostate
and anarchist, a traitor to his faith and
to his country. The foul work OF prose-
lytization' and soul stealing is going on.
The entire influence - surrounding r,i 1n,II. the
.The regular early roundup Of the
children for school reveals the summers
misdoings Of these workers. As for the
summer vacation itself, there Is nothing
to surpass il In advantages TO be derived
by the workers and by the, club itself.
The real paupers, namely tho workers,
get a fine long summers free vacation
by this scheme. No one imagines that
these workers are giving their services
gratuitously when they gather the
Catholic and Jewish children from Prot
estant settlements and clubs in order to
conduct them to the country.
Poor, dear old, New YORK Is most
some day to the frauds that are being
praotised upon her in the sweet name
Of charity that awakening wilrbe dread
ful one.
"a little Italian girl OF this parish was
stolen less than year ago by the settle
ment workers. For a week the daily
papers had stories Of her disappearance,
suggesting kidnapping, blackhahders and
other terrible things, while the parents
were heartbroken.. One day the little
one was discovered on one Of the docks.
One OF the female workers had taken
her into the country for two weeks
vacation without consulting the parents.
These workers are freaks with fads.
Father Curry severely criticises Jacob
A. Riis, who Is Interested in settlement
club within the clergyman's parish.

ALAsKA-yUKoN EXPOSITION.
IT WIN Open June as Adyerused-North.
west Prepared to Surprise the World.

west Prepared to Surprise the World.
The city OF Seattle Is making great prep
arations 10 entertain visitors next June
when the Alaska-Yukon Exposition will
be opened. Up in the Northwest they
are looking forward to the opening OF
the show to convince people OF othei
climes that this newest corner OF the
country is by far and away the best to
be in. New York has appropriated
S75, 900 for the show. and according TO
Oscar p. Oliver, special publicity com.
missioner, now here. Is going to contrib.
ute more to the success OF the show thar
any other State except Washington.
The exposition will be unique in many
particulars; it will expose for the first
time on q broad scale the resources OF
the Yukon territory and Alaska. a ter
rtory in which only 100 900 persons live
and yet which is as large as New York
land States combined, with something
to spare. This territory. the Seattle
people think, has been sadly neglected
by the United States and much misun-
derstood all over the world. One of the
prime purposes Of the exposition Is to
dissipate this ignorance.
The Yukon territory that is the portion
have produced s125 COO 600 in gold, $780,
600 900 in furs and SOC, 900 600 in fish since
the territory was bought from Russia.
1t is now believed to be certain that on
this 500 900 square miles of territory
can be raised live stock Of nearly all varie-
ties, hemp and nearly all kinds OF grain.
Some idea OF the interest Seattle feels
from the fact that the people Of that city
raised SOS ,Oo0 In q single day: The $500 :
600 capital stock was ovorsubscribcd the
first day il was offered. 1t has been
Increased since to $500 900. all of which
has been sold. When 1t was suggested
that perhaps owing TO financial condi-
tions the opening had better be post,
poned until 1910 a great hue and
Northwest, who felt that this would be
a reflection on their ability to finance
the enterprise successfully. Now it is
promised that the show will open promptly
on June next.
The exposition is to cover leo acres.
A committee OF former New Workers is
coming here to interest commercial or
ganizations in the show and 10 endeavor
to get the Legislature to increase New
Yorkie appropriation. They would like
II to be s75o, 600 instead OF 5000.
While il will be impossible to obtain
any intoxicating liquors either on the
grounds or within two miles of them,
The gates Of the exposition win be open
on Sundays. According to Commissioners
Oliver, when Congress was sked to appro-
pirate $3.50 600 and aoquiesced, the con-
dition was inserted in the bill that the
fair should remain closed on Sundays,
But when the bill got to conference some
body managed to let the Sunday closing
clause fall into the waste paper basket
and il was ten days after the bill had be-
come law that the discovery was made.

MR.. ANDREWS STUDIES WHALES.
Pacific Monsters Measured and Phote>
graphed for Museum Of Natural History.


VICTORIA. B. c.. Aug. 2S.-R. G. An
drews Of New York. representing the
American Museum Of Natural History,
has left for home after a stay Of three
months on the west coast Of Vancouver
Island. where he engaged in the study
Of whale life. making many trips to tho
feeding grounds and the whaling sta-'
tions at Sechart and Kyuquot. Il
Mr.. Andrews obtained an interesting
collection Of photographs showing the
whale feeding, sleeping. romping and
being taken by the harpoon. One pic,
ture shows the harpoon in air and about
to enter the body Of whale. HIS mis-
sion was TO add to the store OF scientific
knowledge concerning the whale and 70
ascertain II there exists any marked dif-
ference between the whales OF the At
lantic and Pacific waters. Up to the
present there has been little available
information as to the whale life OF the
Pacific. The whales Of the Atlantic had
been the subject Of careful research. IS
The opening OF the whaling stations
on Vancouver Island afford the necessary
scope for comprehensive study OF the
Pacific whales. Mr.. Andrews has made
careful measurements of many specimens
and will make companions with fecorce
measurements OF specimens on the At
lantic side. At present II In not apparent
that any material difference exists.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 5.-The United
States Consul at Tabriz. Persia, William
F. Doty, reports that the discharge OF
his official duties is attended with the

received to-day by acting Secretary
Ade the Consul says that he and the

dodging bullets and shells.

whether the bullet that cut away his
colors came from the Government troops
or the revolutionary party.
The letter was written nearly month

the Consul stood in the midst Of shower
OF bullets. "A shell that burst above
the Turkish consular edifice. a piece
OF which nearly killed a servant in the
