Bishop Hare for nearly forty years bore
the title of THE Missionary to the Sioux"
In that time he had gathered about him
band of converts numbering nearly ten
thousand, including warriors who fought
with Sitting Bull in the bloody battle in
which Custer lost his life. The change
from the marauding savage to the peace
ful industrious red citizen Of South Da-
kota, the result OF Bishop Hare's life work,
is strikingly shown in the great convoca-
ton held by Sioux churchmen every fall.
From all parts OF the reservation delega-
tions from the Ogallalas, the Sissetons, the
Blackfeet, the Santees, the Wahpetons and
the other Sioux tribes journey to the meet
ing place. South Dakota is by far the
largest Indian mission of the Protestant
Episcopal Church. II reaches thirteen
tribes, and out OF a population OF $500
Indians over 5000 have been baptized and
nearly 5000 confirmed.
Into the unconventional customs Of the
West Bishop Hare carried the churchman's
keen sense Of the dignity OF his office
Where another might have adjusted him.
self TO the ideas Of the community in which
he worked, Bishop Hare gradually brought
the members of that community 10 see
things in his own light and live according
ly. He carried his rigid ideas inculcated
by Eastern training into the Western wilds
and made the West respect them. Iet he
was not in the least afraid to enter the
secular lists. 1t was he who, when South
Dakota had become byword for its lax
divorce laws. aroused public sentiment.

Legislature to lobby for the repeal Of the
obnoxious laws.

by trouble with his eyes. but he was able
later to carry on his theological studies
so as to be ordained deacon by Bishop Bow
man in Philadelphia, in 1859. He then became
assistant minister at St. Luke's. in Phila-
delphia. and remained there until 1861. when
he took charge of ST. Paurs Church. Chest
nut Hill. Penn. He was made a priest by
Bishop Alonzo Potter. in 1862. and the fol-
lowing year took the rectorship of St.

he became rector of the Church Of lie As
censiOn, in Philadelphia, where he remained
till he was appointed secretary and general
agent Of the foreign committee OF the board
Of missions.
In 1871 the House OF Bishops elected him
missionary bishop to Cape Palmas. in
Africa, but the House OF Deputies OBJ
jected strongly to the establishment of the
see and the election was recOnsidered- In
1872, however. the House Of Bishops met
again in special session in New York,
and he was made missionary bishop of
Niobrara. as the Indian missionary juris-
diction west OF Minnesota was then called
The boundaries of this jurisdiction were
altered in 1888, and its name was changed so
that Bishop Hare became bishop of South
Dakota. A few years ago he was sent by
the House of Bishops as an Episcopal
visitor to the Church in Japan Through
out his career he was known as moder-
ate high churchman Of conservative views.
Two years ago Bishop Hare was found
TO be suffering from a cancer in his right
eye and was obliged to have the eye re-

FRITZ kREIsLER's RECITAL.

The appearance of Fritz Kreisler is al
ways an affair OF Importance in New
YOrk's musical life, and the large audience
that gathered at his first recital OF the
season in Carnegie Hall yesterday after
noon seemed amply aware OF the fact 1t
welcomed the distinguished violinist back
to America by continued bursts of applause
after each number on the programme and
forced him TO bow his Acknowledgements
again and again.
Mr.. Kreisler played no selections which a
New York audience has not heard him play
before, the chief numbers being Handers
D major sonata and Y. B. Viottrs con-
certo in A minor. Suffice it TO say that he
is the Fritz Kreisler of old, his technique
as sure, his tone as full OF color and his
reading Of the music as convincing as ever.
Mr.. Kreisler was ably seconded by his
accompanist. Haddon Squire.

MISSION OF THIS NEWSPAPER.

MISSION OF THIS NEWSPAPER.
To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: They who study the subject say
ti only one in every one hundred born
into the world lives TO see sixty-ive years
1t is about that number of years since
read the first issue of The Daily Tribune
and have been constant reader OF IL
ever since.
Your notice OF reduction in price and the
reasons for doing it indicate a purpose
of extending the circulation and the use
fulness of the paper
The Tribune has always maintained its
character for purity and has ever been IN
advocate of truth in both public an pri-
vate affairs; and In days when prices for
daily papers were generally maintained
the paper established by Horace Greeley
had a most extensive field for it's useful
ness and was among the foremost in power
to create and give right direction to opin-
ion
During those dark and trying days when
the life of the nation was threatened by
arrogant despotism and human wrong.
and again, now, in these days when an
ever more dark and dismal wave OF Nam
mon is sweeping over the land, The Trib-
une has stood manfuIly up to show that
honor, honesty and truth are not only right,
but even more profitable than wrong.
Among the things needful to make the
superior wisdom of truth, purity and hon
esty more generally known among the
masses of the people is the issue of an at
tractive, trusted and well equipped daily
newspaper at a price low enough to COM
pete with others. The higher price may
not be above the intrinsic value Of the
paper but, working above the heads of the
people, 1t acts in a limited sphere and falls
far below, in extent, its proper field Of
usefulness.
The office of such paper as The Tribune
is to work among the common people and,
by disseminating right ideas, lift up hu-
manity. The elevation of the bottom of
the social structure carries with 1t in its
upward march all its parts.
BY vastly increasing the circulation of
your paper, as I hope. you will find en-
lsrged relations with your patrons and
while doing the public increased service
greatly enlarge your paying patronage.
The Tribune has been source of reliable
instruction and entertainment through
many years to me- I hope it may continue
in improved quality and enlarged useful
ner- to the generations to come.

THE Evening News has been so long in

CHANGE GALL TO THE GOOD"

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Permit me to congratulate you on
the change you have made. I have read
your very valuable paper for the last
eighteen years; in fact II was the first
paper 1 bought when I landed at New
York, and since I have not found any
necessity TO change It.
In going over the last two issues have
found to my great establishment that the
paper I bought when I landed in New
change is all to the good. The re-
duction in price will certainly increase the
number of your readers and you will be
able TO reach the masses and educate them
10 the high principles you represent
wish you heartily the best of success.

Sir: AS a reader of The Tribune for the

greatest satisfaction in your new policy of

SOME MORE GOOD WISHES.
INCREASED POWER.

From The Geneva IN. " News
That the outcome will be increased power
for one OF the leaders in the ranks OF re-
sDectable journalism is practically assured.
Our only regret is that conditions demand
the selling of a necessity, a daily news
paper at the ridiculous price OF one cent;
The price is absurd when the time and
money necessary for the production Of a
newspaper are considered, But The Tr,b-
une has bowed TO the demand OF the times
and takes its place among the penny
