Aged 1873, Helped to Build First
Missions.

After 120 years amid scenes of strife
and warfare, peace and progress, Jose
Castro, the San Gabriel Indian, known

lay.
This mission was completed in 1900
Jose, then but boF, was taken from
his father when the monks entered
the then wild cou1try and made a
protege of the mission. He aided
about the place and became devout.
Little is known of the old mans
life. He was always reticent and
! when the subject of his past came UP
would gravely shake his head and NUT
ter that he lived when the Indian was
supreme and when the white man
had not robbed him of his lands.
Jose was the son IL an Indian whom
the monks named Salustiano Catros
and made their herdsman. His
mother was called Benjamina. She
died at the age q lis years. His
fathers age is not known. When the

sion. who have talen a kindly inter

UNIVERSITY CATHOLIC
ASSOCIATION
Closes a Profitable Year, at the Uni
versity of Minnesota-Many Men,
bers have Attained Distinction in
Their Officers Elected for
the Coming Scholastic Year.

The final meeting of the Univer-
sity Catholic Association for the pres
ent school year was held last Sunday
afternoon at the University of Mime
sofa. The Rev. e. J. Wilbee, Spirit
ual Director of the Association, de-
livered the closing address. The last
social function of the year will take
place Saturday, May 25, when the big
annual picnic will be held at Como
Park. This is always the grand eli
max of the years social activities of
the Association. The members attend
in large numbers and pleasant time
is enjoyed by all. The indications are
that this years picnic will be no ex-
ception to the rule. Plans are being
made for the entertainment of a
large number.
The past year has been a satisfac-
tory one for the U. G. A. The mem
bership reached little more than two
hundred, most of whom took an ac-
tive interest in the work The meet
ings which were held every Sunday
afternoon were, on the average, well
attended. Some of the most promi-
nent speakers among the Catholic
clergy and laity of the two cities were
heard. At the meetings musical
selections also were given. Not only
was the talent of the Association en-
ployed, but soloists were secured
from the various church choirs. The
Catholic students have by this means
been brought frequently together.
They have learned to know one an
other. Their common interests have
resulted in mutual friendship and
helpfulness. The U. G. A. is today one
of the best known organizations on
the University campus. It's member
ship is closely united and loyal to
the organization.
Each year the names of some of
the members of the u. C. A are to be
found on the list of students who re-
ceive scholastic honors. This year

polla, high priest of the Basilica, re-
garding the ornamentation of ST.

Augusta, Ga, Sept. 30.-Further con-
ferences of representatives of the
striking street railway employees and
street railway company in this city

a basis for arbitration of the questions

was reported.
Three of the local companies Of mi

certain conditions, one of which was
that certain strikers whom the COM
pany regards as trouble makers be
employed no more. The company in

SENATOR STOKES MAKES
APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE

Before leaving last night for Talla-

the special session of the legislature
Senator John P Stokes gave out the
Following in reference to the success
sor TO JAS. McHugh on the legisla-
tive ticket in Escambta county;
Mr. MoHush's Successor.
To ths Public:
EgeIy one win recall the fight made
at the last session OF the Florida
legislature to secure an enactment of
a cAi which will authorize the city
OF Eazi yacola to regulate the charges
aud service of public service corpora
tons. doing business in this city.
You will also recall how our efforts
We're defeated by the influence of the
Special Interests affected.
Having In mind our experience at
the last session Of the legislature in
this connection, the citizens interested
in this important matter determined
that there should not, in 1913, be a
recurrence OF the experience Of 1911,
and nominated James McIugh and
Henry O. C1opton as representatives
from this county, both of whom had
indicated their purpose to support the
measure referred to, and with this
understanding were overwhe helmtngly
nominated in the first primary.
The unexpected withdrawal Of Mr..
McHugh from the contest, and his re-
linuuishment of the Democratic nomi-
nation for this Office, makes 1t neces-
saIy, In view of the short time to
elapse between now and the general
election, that the county Democratic
executive committee nominate a can
didate to succeed Mr.. McHugh.
I trust that the members Of this
committee, and the citizens generally
OF this county, win bear In mind the
experience of 1911 and see that the
man who is nominated to succeed Mr..
McHugh, and to be one of your rep
resentatives In the legislature of 1913,
will be pledged to the enactment of
the measure defeated at the last ses-
sion. 1t is incumbent upon all citi-
zens interested to make some effort
to bring to bear their influence for
the nomination of the proper man at
this time
It is absolutely unavailing to COM
plain when the injury is done. If
you sit idly by and permit the Special
Interests TO have one of their hench-

who testified that the correct method
of telling whether an egg was decom-
posed was to count the bacteria in
the egg substance.
The Keith company contended con-
gress had not decided what it meant
by "decomposed'' and so the courts
must go back to the common law for
a definition. Under the common law.
1t continued, a decomposed egg was a
rotten egg and so congress must have
meant TO legislate against a rotten
egg, or eggs 'unwholesomely decom-
posed"
The egg company attacks the gov
ernment acknowledging that every
thing in this world is more or less de-
composed, and that 1t had to adopt an
arbitrary standard of decomposition
in order to make the law enforcible.

Syracuse, N. Y. Sept 3o.-In the face
of gossip today that Governor John A.
Dix would be eliminated as candi-

ocratic state convention which will
meet here tomorrow, the governor sent
this message to his supporters:
'I have no intention of withdrawing
either for my enemies or for my
friends. NY name will be presented
to the convention and that is all care
to say"
There were many signs that the
leaders were seeking solution OF the
situation that would not impair party
harmony. Charles F. Murphy, the
Tammany chieftain, made remark
today which was taken to mean that
the convention would be open" and
that the delegates might work out the
nomination by succession of ballots
as was done by the Republicans at
Saratoga.

SCORES WILSON IN HIS
SPEECH IN CHATTANOOGA

Chattanooga, Tenn.,s Sept. 30-Gov-
ernor Marshall, of Indiana, was char
acterized as a representative Of the
Taggart machine" here today by Col.
Roosevelt, who criticized Governor
Wilson for assuming a lofty position
of morality in connection with the
Democratic gubernatorial nomination
in New York, when he had not object
ed to the nomination Of Governor Mar
shall as his running mate. Col. Roose-
welt also assailed Governor Hooper
and Senator Sanders, Of Tennessee.
Col. Roosevelt reached Chattanooga
early today from Atlanta and spent
several hours here before leaving for
Knoxville. He spoke to crowd which
filed the Auditorium and then ad-
dressed a large overflow meeting on
the street.
Having covered 1900 miles in his
swing about the country, Col. Roose-
welt began the last part of his trip
today. He will be in North Carolina
tomorrow and is due in New York at
2:30 p. m. Wednesday.

necessary to interfere about the COVER
norship of New York, he did not also
interfere about the e-president. His
man on the ticket, his colleague, is a

chine of Indiana. It is not one whit
better than the Tammany machine in
New York.

sumo lofty position of morality in
the New York fight and at the same
time to have as his running mate a
