GOLDEN JUBILEE OF
CATHOLIC BISHOP,
(National News Association

OGDENSBURG, N. Y, Sept 14.-In
the presence of the largest and most
notable gathering of dignitaries of the
Roman Catholic church that ever as
sembled in this city, the celebration of
the sacredotal jubilee of the Rt. Rev.
Henry Gabriels, bishop of Ogdens-
burg, began today with a pontifical
high mass of thanksgiving. Among
the eminent prelates in attendance
were Most Rev. Diomede Falconio,
apostle delegate to the United States;
Archbishop Farley of New York; Arch
bishop Gauthier of Ottawa, and sew
eral bishops.
Bishop Gabriels is a native of Bel
GUM and received his education in
that country. Soon after his ordina-
tion to the priesthood in 1861 he came
to the United States. For nearly
thirty years he was attached to St.
Joseph's Seminary at Troy, and for
twenty years he was president of the
institution. In 1892 he severed his
connection with the seminary upon his
appointment as bishop of Ogdensburg.

Paul D. Rainy, New York millionaire.
is making in Africa, have reached the
Smithsonian institution.
This is only the first shipment OF
trophies of the hunt that MIR. Rainey
will send to the National Museum.
Eleven big zinc lined crates were used
to bring the three hundred large skins
and four hundred small skins Of birds
and the seven hundred skins of birds
of all colors and sizes. The most pre-
cious of the skins are those of two
dozen lions and of zebra that were
killed in British East Africa.
"Mr. Rainey is conducting the most
extraordinary hunt for big game that
any living man ever undertook" Gerritt
S. Miller, curator of animals of the Ma
tional Museum, said, in telling OF the
Rainey trophies that have reached
him. HE is fond of photography and
has with his a complete moving pic
ture apparatus and skilled photo
grapher. All the lions, as well as the
zebra, which by the way can put up a
stiff fight, were run down by dogs and
photographed in their desperate fight
for life before being killed. The pic
lures will be unique and valuable
"Mr. Rainey has pack of selected
bearhounds, the best in Mississippi

GUARDIAN WANTED

WASHINGTON. d. c., Sept. IA
Uncle Sam is figuring on what he
shall do with the lone survivor OF the
Yana tribe of Indians, who was cap
tured near Orville. CAL, recently. A
report was received today from Chas.
IL. Davis. one OF the agents OF the bur-
ieau. in which he recommends that
the lone Yana be cared for by some
member of an allied tribe. This, 1t
was stated. probably would be the

after a year or two." said Mr..
Davis, "he doubtless would be able to
look after himself, become member
lof the band and live as they do"
MIR. Davis reported that the Indian
was being well treated by the Uni
versity OF California authorities. who
NOW have him in charge.
4 The lone Yana, Mr.. Davis believes,
is the last of a group Of four or five
indians who for years past have lived
lin the practically inaccessible haunts
sof canyons along the Feather river.
Several years ago a party of sur
veyors, the report adds, evidently
drove them from this seclusion, and
lin the attempt to find another hiding
lplace all of them perished except the
hold man taken few days ago. He is

which open outward rather than those
which are blind alleys.

In all trades the girls have to start
at the bottom OF the ladder; In many
trades they stay there, doing over and
over again some one mechanical pro-
cess which is not only exhausting but
Ideadening as WELL The Lucy l..
Fowler high school aims to fit its girls
rather for those occupations which
give the personality some chance to
develop.
There is demand for intelligent
craftsmen in photography, for exam
pie. This is one of the crafts which
will be taught at the school. Type
setting is another. OF course, milli-
merry and dressmaking will be taught,
as well as salesmanship. Then there
cialized machinery, such as that used
in making patterns for embroidery.
There are problems in. plenty ahead
of the new school. AS Mrs. Young
said in her report to the board OF ed
ucatiOn this week, the conditions gov
erning woman's Invasion of industry
are peculiar. If it is hard to train
boys for specific occupations, it is
twice as hard to train girls. The
conditions are rigid and in many cases
onerous. And the training must be
done with one eye on the girls future
home. If all such institutions have
had their ups and downs we may at
least find encouragement in the fact
that the new school in Chicago
seems to have no illusions about it's
task. no excessive simplicity in its
conception of what lies before it. And
| it seems certain to have, besides,
steady and cheerful public support.
