work of the society and for increas-
ing its membership.
1t was the sense of the society that
the offer of the chief of police to pay
boys for catching dogs was a mis-
take, because it furnished the tempta-
ton of reward for boys to steal
dogs.

of his habits is the secret of his abil-
ity to accomplish so much and his
good health. While he is not robust,
he is wiry and has an immense ca
pacity for labor.
His voice is not sonorous, but 1t is
sweet and penetrating, and easily
fills the cathedral He is fond of
music and encourages congregational
singing.
AS preacher he is always learned
AID interesting and often eloquent.
His sermons he writes cut in ad-
vance, but he is also good extern
pore orator. Having been so long
accustomed to figuring in public af-
fairs and conducting the great func-
tions of the church, he is never fur
ried or nervous, but when he rises to
make an address is composed and
fluent. The marvel is that his SER
mons should be as good as they are,
since he is subjected to so many in
terruptons and can scarcely call an
hour his own.
Cardinal Gibbons is one of the
most democratic of men-plain, un-
ostentatious and distinguished for
good sense in everything he does.
Although wise and shrewd, he is free
from the smallest shadow of dissim-
ulation. He hates double-dealing in
all its forms. He is extremely char
table, and his income does not meet
the demands upon it. BY no manner
of means is he a rich man, and the
public would be surprised to know
how much he is obliged to spend in
charity. Many are the things he
pays for out of his own pocket as
the expression Is, because he can not
refuse. and of which few know but
himself.

A NERVY ROPE FEAT.
Aerial Gordon, Successor to Blondin,
to Cross Grand River Blind
folded.

By those whose memories run
back over several decades, the feat
of Blondin, who walked a tight wire
stretched across the great Niagara
falls, is still well remembered. Blon-
din is no more, but he has found
successor in Aerial Gordon, well
known circus performer, whose ner-
Wy feats performed under the can
vas of one of the great show troups
of this country have set thousands
of people to gasping at his daring.
In engaging Gordon to perform
some Of his stupendous feats at Chen
wood Springs on Road Race day, C.
Nj. Keck, who is managing the race,
has given western slope people an
opportunity to see the performance of
one of the most-talked-of men in this
line.
Blondin walked Niagara with his
eyes open. To cross the Grand river
at Glenwood Springs on tight wire
is in itself almost as daring a feat.
While the distance is not quite as
great, still death lies in a fall into
the shallow river with its nasty,
choppy rapids.
But that doesn't bother Gordon.
He won't see the river, FOR HE IS
GOING TO WALK ACROSS THAT
WIRE BLINDFOLDED.
To see the man, one would say he
was just an ordinary fellow. and to
hear him talk about his performance
one would think it is just matter of
dollars and cents. That's all it ap-
pears to be to Gordon, for he put a
pretty high price on his performance
Yet the price was accepted cheerfully,
for it's worth all he asks.
And on Road Race day the public
will be given an opportunity to see
Gordon do his stunt without charge
to the spectators. On top of this
great feat, Gordon will be assisted
by three expert trapeze performers.
Other features of the program ir-
clude band concerts, for which the
Grand Junction, Palisade and Grand
Valley bands have been engaged.
and rattling good ball game be-
tween Glenwood and Aspen.

Everybody was highly pleased. At
the close, the pastor read a set of
resolutions drawn up by committee
of the Sunday school expressing the
sorrow of his co-laborers in the de-
parture of j. w. Swire for Grand
Junction. Mr.. Swire's departure was
so sudden that the church of which
he was long and faithful member
had TO opportunity to say farewell
in fitting manner, and this was very
much regretted.

Especial to The sentinel0

Baltimore, July 23.-Cardinal
Gibbons, the grand old man" of the
Roman Catholic church in America,
is IA years of age today. Friends,
colleagues and admirers of the pri-
mate of the American hierarchy all
over the world sent messages of con-
graduation.
The cardinal was born in Lou siana
July 23, 1884. In his infancy he was
taken to Ireland, where he received
his early education. Returning to
America, he graduated from st.
Charles College, and On June so,
1861, was ordained a priest. He made
rapid advancement and in 1868 was
consecrated bishop and vicar apos-
tolic of North Carolina. In 1877 he
succeeded to the see of Baltimore. In
1886 he received the crowning honor
\of his life, and tribute was paid to the
American church, by his elevation to
the college of cardinals.
With all his learning and attain
ments, Cardinal Gibbons is one of
the most modest of men and is dearly
beloved by the priests under his
charge and thoroughly admired and
esteemed by citizens of every creed.
The personal habits of the cardinal
are of the simplest character. His
daily life is one of incessant activity
and viewing his age and slight frame,
the wonder is how he can accomplish
so much. He is an early riser, get
ting up about $3.50 in the summer
and not later than 6 in the winter.
He usually says the Z O'Clock mass,
celebrating almost every day. even
when he is at the seaside in warm
weather. After his mass he spends
a short time in thanksgiving and then
goes to breakfast. Afterward he
reads his newspapers, and he never
neglects the baseball column, and
then he attends to his correspondence.
When this is finished he gives an
hour or two to his literary work.
Notwithstanding his frequent inter-
ruptions, the cardinal manages to
accomplish a great deal.
Visitors begin dropping in soon af-
ter O'Clock. The ecclesiastical bus
iness of the archdeacon is something
enormous. There are priests to see
about their affairs, some belonging
to the city, others to the country.
Secular callers come also in great
numbers, and on some mornings ev-
