NAVAL OFFICERS SISTER
TELLS OF THE NAVY

Mrs. Charles w. DeKay, at the story
hour of the Carnegie library, yesterday
afternoon, greatly entertained a large
number of children with a realistic de-
scription of life at the Annapolis Ma
val academy. Mrs. DeKay showed
many sides of the life of the students,
including their manner of living,
amusements, the strict discipline
which they are under, the long sea
cruises they are sent upon n the
special occasions which enliven the
dull routine of study and training. The
talk was illustrated by a large number
of Illustrations in the shape of photos
and books. The manner in which en-
trance into the academy is gained and
the absolute necessity OF a boy being
perfect, morally and physically, if he
wishes to serve Uncle Sam as a naval
officer. was also dwelt upon by the
speaker. The musical program con-
sisted of a pretty violin solo by little
Wintfred Taylor, excellent piano solos
by Mary Jones and Alice Hartman and
an exceptionally well executed piano
duet by Edith Stirling and Alice Hard
man.

SPLENDID ADDITION
TO CARNEGIE LIBRARY.

The board of trustees of the Carne-
gle library appreciates very highly the
generous offer of the local lodge of the
knights of Columbus to donate to the
library the new Catholic Encyclope-
dia," for the use of its patrons. The
generous suppart given to the library
by Father Cummisky and the knights
OF Columbus is peculiarly gratifying
to he trustees as %evidencing the i'm
partial and non-sectarian manner in
which the Carnegie library was in
augurated and in which broad lines it
has been conducted. The encyclopedia

costing nearly 500, and is being issued
in fifteen large volumes, of which three
are already completed. In speaking of
the work, the New York Sun praises it
as of the greatest value to Roman
catholics, and adds that in many ways
it must appeal to those outside of the
church as well. The religious side is
by no means preponderant in the en-
cyclopedia. 1t includes everything in
which Catholics have engaged, and as
all C"hristendom was Catholic before
the Reformation, the whole story of
civilization for fifteen centuries comes
within its province.

LONGEST IN ~PASTORATE


Mrs. Kleemann and Miss Agnes
Kleemann last night entertained a
party of friends at dinner at their
home on Fourth street in honor of
Father Hugh Cummiskey, pastor of
st. Lawrence O'Toole Catholic church,
who is this week celebrating the
twenty-ninth anniversary of his pas
torate here, a longer period, perhaps,
than that of any other minister in the
state of Wyoming. Father Cummiskey
came to Laramie when a young man
having been pastor of a small parish
a few months before coming to this
city, and has been here ever since,
receiving many honors from the
church and the diocese. During the
bishopric of Bishop Lenihan of sainted

eral. He is also a prince of the house

VERDICT OF COURT IN STOESSEL
CASE RECEIVED WITH DIS
SATISFACTION AT THE
RUSSIAN CAPITAL.
Trial Has Done Practically Nothing to
Fix Real Responsibility for HumiI-
iation Of Russia in Surrender of
Marine Stronghold, and Newspa-
pers Demand That kuropatkin and
Viceroy Alexieff Be Also Tried.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 21.-The pass
ing of the sentence of death yesterday
upon General Stoessel is received with
little satisfaction in the Russian cap
ital, where it is felt that the trials of
Generals Stoessel, Fock, Reiss and
Smyrnof had done practically nothing
towards establishing the real respon-
sibility for the fall of Port Arthur.
Neglected Some Things.
The court indeed fixed the extent of
the guilt of Stoessel and the others,
but neglected to judge the situation
of which they were the product.
Testimony Ruled Out.
1t declined to admit testimony re-
garding the preparedness of the fort
at the beginning of the war, the
role of the navy in defense of the ma
rine stronghold and other underlying
factors in the humiliation If Russia.
The newspapers today express sympa
thy for Stoessel and declare that the
sentence should undoubtedly be com
muted.
Some Men Higher Up.
They demand also that General XII
ropatkin, Viceroy Alexieff and other Of
icers still more responsible for the
loss of the war be placed on trial.

e~eiving the Commentator of the
Citizens on the Start He Has Made

Interest in the Project.

The assertion of NJ. ]. Barry that an

mended by business men quite freely

Barry to whatever extent will insure
success.
Hotel in Combination.
Connected with the proposed build

ness can be decided upon than a well
built and well managed hotel in OIL

ing listened to an address by Secretary
Frank Eggleston. in which he referred
to the need of a hotel here, says that
