Rockland, Me-, March 26.-The Unit
brought here in tow early today the
British schooner Tay, bound from st.
John, y. b., for Boston, with a cargo
of lumber which the cutter rescued
yesterday from the lodges on Isle Au
Haute, at the lower entrance of Penob-
scot bay. The schooner, wracked by

Yesterday was badly damaged. Her
rudder and steering gear are gone, she
is leaking badly and her decks are
awash. The craft was so badly bat

vessel to remain aboard and they made

logged as she was, made heavy towing
and that during the run from Isle Au
Haute to Rockland, the cutter was un-
able to make better speed than three
knots an hour.
1t was only after three attempts that
the revenue cutter succeeded in float

bent said he first sighted the schooner
aground on Isle Au Faute island at

half an hour before. The Androscog-
gin sent hawser to the schooner i'm

and the schooner was floated. only to
run aground on another part of the

HUMBLE PIE

Pekin March 2G.-China is not pre-

and as a result of prolonged conferences,
the Chinese foreign office today, as
sured the Russian minister, NJ. Koros-
tovetz, that China Will acquiescc Gnre-
scrvedly on Monday to the demands
made in the Russian ultimatum con-
corning the provisions of the treaty Of
1881. Russia insisted upon an answer
brfcre Tuesday.
1t is generally considered that there
vas no alternative course, in view of

entirely aloof, although more powerful
than ever at Pellin.
While the issues between China and
Russia have been almost obliteiated
by the recent series of ultimatGms and
theoretically insufficient cause for oc-
cupation exists, Russia apparently fears
that she could obtain only Paper prom
Uses, which the Chinese would not OH
serve unless inundated. Russians here

Lare Shock.

Late Shock Is coming in these

following editorial mention:

Mills, Braxton county. the member
of the recent legislature who took
Il roll of bills from an unknowa
man on the premise TO vote for GER
tain senatorial candidates and then
gave the money up to two
strangers" Is the hero in little
sketch printed in the Morgantowa
P6st-Chronicle, the paper owned by
ProfiHenry s. Green, late professor
in the West Virginia University.
Since the finance committees OF the
legislature refused to stand for the
salary of Prof. Green, the Post
Chronicle has been devoting most of
its space to discussing his bouncing.
Speaking of the Hon. Mr.. Shock,
the Post-Chronicle says:
w. d. SAOCk' OF itallS NILS, Is Gne
Democrat who had the nerve to call
the attention Of the lawmakers to
the methods by which a corrupt
combine was seeking to buy pair
Of seats in the United States Senate.
The evidence of attempted bribery
which Mr.. Shock furnished should
have resulted in an investigation of
the means employed to corral ma
iority in the Democratic caucus.
The House resolution in favor OF
such an investigation was smothered
in the Senate by some crooked
means, but the honor Of having
made IN honest attempt to bring
corrupt scoundrels to justice is none
the less due to Mr.. Shock"

an extract, was written to The Cath

to remedy the financial worries and
pitiful living conditions of mission

sIDELIGHTs ON MISSION LIFE IN
TEXAS.

A priest visiting the offices Of The
Catholic Church Extension Society
commented on the frequent appeals
made for missions in Texas, and won
dered whether too much aid was not
being given one quarter. mo. In
Gods name give all you can, because
it will only be a drop in the bucket
compared to the great need" said
priest who overheard the remark,
and who had spent three years on the
plains of Texas. He had been loaned
to a southern diocese for missionary
work, in the hope that life in that eli
mate would build up his shattered
health. Then, fired by the thought OF
the experiences he had had, and the
scenes he had witnessed in the Lone
Star State" he painted a few word
pictures for the doubling one.
Some time ago, when few cow
boys were looking for lost cattle,
he said, they came upon human
skeleton, an ordinary sight on the
plains of Texas. But this find was to
them of special interest on account
of the odd-looking vessel found near
the remains. The sight of gold at
tracts even the cowboy and when they
picked up what proved to be gold
washed chalice, there was no doubt
of the identity of the skeleton as the
remains of Catholic priest. In wan
other in search of Catholics, that
priest lost his way and starved to
death.
"He was not the only priest who
had starved on the Texas missions.
Suffering and privation are the lot
of all missionaries in that land OF
magnificent distances.
and the poverty can scarcely be
realized except by an eye witness.
Think of vestments of calico patterns,
vaguely resembling in outline the gar
ments prescribed by the rubrics. On
one occasion, when we wished to give
Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament,
an ordinary pyx being used for osten-
sorium, we discovered at the last mo-
ment that there was no censor. A
quick-witted priest secured an old
tomato can, and the beautiful cere'
mony proceeded.
But with the choir of large city

There is a great future for Catholic

tiers are now pouring, but the Cath
olics must be held from the first by
