proceed on their triumphal and exalted march.
 On the other side, American civ ilization is rather loaded, super6- cial and without ideals, lacking therefore moral strength. The aI- most exclusive love of the Almighty dollar, has caused such a decay in the United States, that it dis astrous consequences are being felt more intensely every day. The re. suit is, therefore, a marked reaction toward the Spanish idiom, of which tendency the Americans themselves. are not yet we'll aware.
 The original English language has been greatly adullerated. The The Spanish lanuage on the con- rrary, is being more diffused every day. Many of our words nave heen introduced and adopted as English phrases by the Americans. President Roosevelt himself has suggested the reform of the English orlhography, in order to simplify and sysemathize that language. approaching thereby the pronuncia- lion to the spelling, as is the case with the Caslilian language.
 Irving, Prescott and other notable English authors, have devoted themselves with considerable enth- usiasm to writing down the history and praising the wonderful deeds of the Spanish heroes during the American conquest.
 Ticknor has written a real mon umental history of our literature, which has been translated into many other languages.
 In New York and other Ameri- can cities are constantly printed millions of copies of splendid Spanish work. and in the same language are being published in numerable newspapers and illus traled magazines.
 But the most characteristic sign of such evolution towards the Spanish idiom in the United States is due to he extraordinary prop agation of Catholicism during the last few years. According to recent statistics, there exist now IA. 235,4 ,45l Catholics in that country and hy adding hose living in the Amerl. can possessions that numher must go mp hy two and enc half millions Should the population of the United States be classified hy re. liginuS denominations very likely the Catholics if not he most con spicuous. should he the next best

Washington.-Orville Wright on
Friday evening attained the zenith of
hard-earned success. In ten-mile
cross-country flight in the famous
aeroplane built by himself and his
elder brother, Wilbur, and accom-
panied by Lieutenant Benjamin d.
Foulers, of the Army Signal corps, he
not only surpassed the speed require
ments of his contract with the gov
eminent, but accomplished the most

ned for a heavier-than-ai flying ma
chine.
Incidentally, he broke all speed rec
ords over a measured course. His
speed was more than forty-two miles
an hour. He made the ten-mile fight
in IA minutes and AZ seconds. He
went up nearly 500 feet in his cross

his average altitude was about 200
feet.
President Taft arrived upon the pa

COMMITTEE SCORES THOMAS.
Superintendent Of Utah State In
dustriaI School Found to be
Incompetent.

Salt Lake City.-The special COM
mittee appointed to investigate condi-
lions at the state industrial school re.
ported to the governor on Thursday.
The committee in its report briefly
reviews the charges and in a general
way the evidence tending to sustain
them. The committee declares that
Mr.. Thomas was not Intentionally
cruel to the inmates, but that his
treatment was severe and extreme. 1t
recommends that an educator pecu-
liarly fitted for the correction of the
young be placed at the head of the
institution. 1t suggests that careful
preparation is necessary in order to
fill properly such a position. Then It
commends Mr.. Thomas for some of
his work and suggests that it is prob
able that he had done as well as any
one not having the proper training
could do under the circumstances.
With reference to the charge of in
competency the committee finds that
Mr.. Thomas failed to carry out the in.
structions of the board of trustees in
numerous instances and makes the
statement that If the instructions had
been carefully followed the investiga,
ton would have been unnecessary.
