OCuOOl LII savannah, ga.
Yesterday afternoon the new school
on Thirty-sixth and Harden streets
was solemnly dedicated by Right Rev.

school paraded on Thirty sixth street,
carrying American flags. At p. m.

chapel vested in his pontiflcal robes
and assisted by seven priests and sew
eral acolytes

ton in the Catholic ritual. After a
Few prayers in the chapel the bishops
and the clergy walked in solemn pro-
cess1On into the street in order TO

Afterwards the bishop blessed the
little chapel in the building and four
beautiful crosses which will decorate
the walls OF the class rooms. The

education Of the colored children.
He insisted in special manner on
the benefit which tho community is
getting from the various Catholics
schools fog colored children, on ac-

are receiving from the priests and
teachers; those mOTa2 and Christian
principles which are being taught
day after day cannot fail to make

hundreds Of colored children who at
tend those schools. Many white
friends visited the new schools and
they witnessed the dedication ser

Heart Church; Rev j. zimmerman or

POOR CROPS. SAYS GARDEN.
Central Branch Official Explains Poor
Freight Service.


Atchison, Kan, Sept. 27.-Referring
to the remonstrance of the business
men at Osborne, Kan, against tr1-
weekly freight service on the Stockton
extension of the Central Branch, Su-
perintendent R. G. Garden gave full
review of crop conditions in northern
Kansas.
Light traffic freight is the reason
triweekly freight service recently took
the place of daily service on the
stockton extension" said Mr.. Garden.
''This falling off in freight business IS
due to the crop conditions in northern
Kansas. I toured the Central Brancn
recentlv and learned that between
Downs and Logan the corn crop this
year won't supply the local demand,
and as there is very little live stock in
that territory, there will be no great
inbound movement of feed to that ter
ritorv this fall or winter.
"On the Lenora, extension of the
Central Branch there is only small
amount of wheat, and that will be
handled by local mills. Between
Jamestown and Concordia a fair corn
crop will be gathered this fall, and on
the Prosser branch the corn crop
probably equals 65 per cent Of full
crop The outlook indicates that
freight traffic Will remain dull IN
northern Kansas until next spring.
The business men of Osborne viii

utilities commission and to Governor
Stubbs.

SUE FOR DEATH OF HORSE.
valuable Stallion Killed by Eating
Russian Thistle. Is Allegation.

Goodland, Sept. 27=There was re-
joicing among the farmers in western
Kansas counties a few weeks ago over
the report that cattle and horses would
eat the Russian thistle and that this
formerly obnoxious weed could be de-
pended upon to take the place of other
roughness of which there was quite q
shortage in some of the western coun-
ties.
A horse owned by Henry T. Bandy
and a half dozen other farmers, joint
Iy, died. H. E. Pettibone, who lived
near Kanorado, had been employed to
care for and manage the animal for
one year at a salary of $3.50. The
Russian thistle was the principal ra-
ton for the animals in the Pettibone
barn and the horse in question died on
September 8, causing q loss of $4,000
to the owners. The owners claim that
the Russian thistle was the cause of
the horses death, hence the suit
A number of farmers throughout
western Kansas have been feeding the
thistle this fall, and many of them
have put up a large amount of the
weed for the winter It is claimed
that Pettibone had fed the weed to
otker animals without bad effect

Leavenworth, Kan, Sept. 27.-One of
the features of the new regime under

In honor of Mr.. LaDOw, of the parole
