PROMINENT MEN AMONG
THOSE AT FUNCTION
The Rev. Francis M. Reilly One
of the Speakers-List of
Those Present.

The fourth annual banquet Of ST
Patrick's Cathedral school Alumni last
night in the Continental Hotel proved
one of the most entertaining and enjoy
able events that the organization has
ever held. The attendance was much
larger than heretofore, and very
sociable.
Former AssemblYman Philip c
Walsh, jr,, was the POSTMASTER, and he
filled the bill admirably.
Men prominent in all walks of life
came. despite the Indictment weather,
to testify their allegiance to their alma
mater.
Text Of Fntber Wbelan's Remarks.
The Rev. l. p. Whelan, the pastor OF
the cathedral. responded to the toast
THE Christian Brother as an Edu-
Gator" He said in part:
"Tne underlying principle of the sue
cess of the brothers as an educator is
due to he fact that they arc men OF
remuneration. This character is
brought into their work, and uncon-
s%ciously the boys under their care par
take of it. There can be no virtue
without restraint"
Abiding to n passing notice in a New
York paper he said that the brothers
boy is remarked for his reverence, his
self-restraint and quickness Of parts
The Rev. Francis NJ. Reilly, in a
comprehensive review on Religion as
a Part of Education said tina the
moral and social disorder that exists
today was due to a lack Of mora.
teaching. Religion is a vital part in
mans nature and there can be no mo
rality without religion. he said. The
brothers. he stated, not only teach the
three RS" but the four RS" read
ing. 'riting. 'rithmetic and religion.
]. Hansbury Callahan spoke for the
alumni. He observed that man is a
racial being and much of his character
is moulded by intercourse with his fell
low man. These associations are pro-
ductive of good, he said, for they re-
veal and bring out any feelings of oui
younger days. If they produce nc
other fruit than that of recalling the
days when the boy is a boy they are
not without merit.
Peter j. O'Toole made some face
tious remarks In responding to the
toast of "Reminiscences His refer

his listeners in good humor.

TONOPAH MAN MAKES INTER
ESTING FIND NEAR LUCKY
BOY DISTRICT

George r. Duncan, John Mesner
and Pat Merriman, all of this city,
while prospecting north and east of
the Luckyboy district several days
ago, came across an old series of
workings in the Pamlico district,
where work was conducted about
25 years ago. The men were out
looking for good ground for w. S.
Johnson, G.. w. Summerfeld, Will
liam Pierce and John Mesner, the
last of whom was in the party. In
the search they came across a tun-
mel that had been deserted for the
past decade. The party explored
the tunnel for a distance of 200 feet,
where a south drift led 80 feet fur
ther. Near the face of the drift was
found two old newspapers, a Police
Gazette of the date of 1888 and a
San Francisco Chronicle bearing the
date of March 5, 1888. The papers
were in an excellent state of pres
ervation and in no way had been
molested by desert rats or other an
imals common to desert life.
A body of ore 25 feet in width
was also found in the tunnel from
which a number of samples were
taken.
Mr.. Duncan who returned yester-
day from the district, thoroughly
sampled the claim, and brought
with him his selections, which are
on exhibition in the window OF this
office. The different formations are
shown and the specimens are inter
esting.
with development the future
outlook of the district appears ex-
cellent,'' said Mr. Duncan yesterday
'The mineral zone extends about ~
miles in length with a width OF
about five miles, with the mineral
lying mostly in the porphyry ano
lime contacts A short distance to
the south is what is known as the
old Pamlico mine, on which two
men are leasing. Last month these
men, working alone, took out five
coal oil cans of ore that netted ovel
$4,000. The leasers now have l.
men working. In the old days this
mine produced many millions of dol
lars and it is possible that mucf
larger amount will be extracted II
