They turned to leave the place to-
gether presently.
Come, Bianco," said Manuel and
his ownership was undisputed by any
of the three.
Northcott looked at the young Mex
lean as they walked silently side by
side. His tread was regal, his mien
gentle, and his beauty shone forth
through the dust of conflict and
through his servile garb.
When they parted little later, he
proved that he could give royalty the
royal gift of love. At the corral he
held out his hand.
"Senor Northcott," he said, "as l
told you this morning, l have long
wanted your friendship. Could you
like me for friend, do you Think"
"Oh, for brother!" cried North
colt. For dear brother!"
Then laughed the boy, ride with
me this evening to my own house-a
place up the valley called "The Fig
Tree Chiquita will be glad, think,
to see us come in together"
"Chiquita?" All the love, and long
ing, and uncertainty that the day had
held welled in that name "Chiquita,
do you say?'
Il am, said the other, slowly, MAN
uel Placide Jose Rosas, more hon
ored in being the brother of Chiquita
than in anything else."
"Rosas," said Northcott, compre-
bending but slowly, Manuel Rosas.
So you are the owner of this ranch
of the whole valley, in fact?"
NO." answered Manuel, "the heir
only, the owner to be in case my good
and old uncle wills it so. | am now,
at his wish, learning the business
from the-what do you say?-from
the dust up. Will you ride with me-
then, tonight up to my house?"
"Rosas!" cried Northcott impulsive
ly. Il am so placed that l can sue
for Chiquita's favor, which is my life
through you-and you alone. l will
sue for that favor, humbly confessing
my unworthiness today and your gen
crosby. Take me to her at once"

men were brothers, but something in
that sunset scene confirmed his faith

befell Father Dolly, of Lipuka, Gen.
trail Oceanica, involves the school
question.
Our school house." he writes,
which served at the same time as
class room and dormitory, has been
destroyed by cyclone. 1t was an
old wooden building, it is true, re-
paired and enlarged many times, but
we hoped it would serve three or four
years longer, while we were gather
ing funds for better lodging.
Alas! the wind made an end of
the school house and of our hopes at
the same time. Shortly after the
tempest we heard that the govern
ment was about to place the country
under the neutral school law. If this
is true, we shall soon be involved in
school law.
Our children need solidly re-
ligious education, or later on they
will become apostates or practically
pagans. 1t is our duty, then, to keep
them constantly. under our super
proper accommodations. If the little
ones find themselves too badly lodged
and fed, they will drift away, natur-
ally to better quarters.
Under these circumstances, there.
fore, we cannot afford to be long with
out school building, or we shall
find ourselves with no pupils"

THE SCHOOL TEACHERS SALARY
is EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR.

In the course of a letter FIR. Joseph
Cheilletz, of Hingi-Shein, China, states
that Catholic schools are carried on
more successfully in country districts
than in large cities. The much-cov-
eted diploma" always a valuable
possession in the Celestial Empire,
is given only by the government
schools, and where these higher insti-
buttons of learning exist young people
naturally like to attend them.
FIR. Cheilletz is located in small
town and has no difficulty in this re-
spect. His needs are along f1nan-
cial line, as he must feed and clothe
most of his pupils. The girls school
is particularly successful, and he
sees in it the foundation of many flu
ture Christian households.
He would like couple of Sisters
for this department, but gets along
fairly we'll with the services of a ma
tive virgin" as school mistress.
There is a Chinese proverb to the
effect that when one can not get
thrushes one must eat blackbirds.
Following this, the Father accepts
most thankfully the humble substi-
tute. Her salary is eight dollars a
year, and the support of pupil costs
six dollars a year.
These figures will seem very mod
est to American readers, but they
look very large to the poor mission
airy who has to foot the bills. He has
already 80 children and expects II
more in the near future. Wouldn't
some of the friends of the Propaga
ton of the Faith like to pay for the
support of one of these children OF
even for the school teacher?

THE SCHOOL QUESTION IN

Oceanica is terribly ravaged by cy-

seeing the result of hard labor and
much petitioning swept away in an
instant before his very eyes, when he
must begin again to seek the difficult
dollars needed for another foundation.

A PRACTICAL BISHOP IN
HAWAII.

Molakai attracts so much attention
as a leper settlement that the fact
that other missionary work is going
on in the Hawaiian territory is apt
to be overlooked.
One of the most valuable charitable
institutions is the orphanage situated
in the Kalihi Valley of Honolulu.
The Right Rev. Libert Boeynaems,
Vicar Apostolic of the Islands,
founded the institution and indeed,
built the greater part of it literally
with his own hands.
The Honolulu Advertiser, in the
course of lengthy article, speaks OF
the enterprise in the following man
ner: "The Kalih1 orphanage started
with two children three years ago,
September 29. Since then it has
doubled it's usefulness just twenty
times. Then it had raw red patch
cut off the slope of the hill to sit on,
now it has spacious, continental look
ing gardens, filed full of coffee,
grapes, luxuriant cabbages and other
things. Then it had the remains of a
dirty little native shack. Now it has
still the shack, renovated, of course,
splendid electrically equipped
steam laundry, machine shop, water
wheels, dynamos, outbuildings, dairy
and big square set, weather-boarded
roomy, comfortable and clean three
stored building full of orphans-and
more coming
The bishop practically supports the
entire institution. The orphans rep
resent his family, and there are
forty of them.
There is a touch of the continent
tai in the place. The four sisters OF
the Sacred Hearts, who preside over
the orphanage, represent four contin'
entail nationalities and the patois OF
several provinces is heard about the
rooms. The grapes grow as they do
where grapes are part of the fam
lily. The big water wheel that Bishop
Libert built with his own hands, runs
with big burly motion as though i'm
PEELED by an alpine stream.
Even the sentiment which caused
Bishop Libert to exclaim about a
year ago, 'Ach, the little ones will
overturn a lamp and set the house on
fire, so we will have electricity was
more continental than it was Ameri
can. The installation of this was not
heralded by a subscription list. The
only audible evidence that charity
had again experienced such travail
was the steady, happy pounding Of
Bishop Libert's hammer, as with his
cassock hung over convenient chair
he nailed down the dynamos and the
motors and nailed up the insultatorE
and the wires
Now the limit of the building, big
as it is, has been reached, There ha:
been a steady flow of orphans from
all quarters of the Islands and the!
are still coming. The home is going
to take 'em, for that's it's nature, bu
where it is going to stow them unit
Bishop Libert hangs up his cassocl
on the back Of another chair ant
pounds together an annex is some
thing that is bothering four busy, bu
very kind hearts that beat beneath
the bodices with the Sacred Heart
so brightly embroidered on them"

cafe in Prague. The proprietor had
refused to raise their wages. As they
had declared that they would not do q

was much gratifled to see them all ar
rive the very morning after their ul-
timatum. There was a change In his
feelings when they all sat down at the
little table for guests and facetiously
called for drinks. Neither persuasion
nor threats could induce them to 20.
and at last the proprietor had to call

were not In the least daunted, and an
nounced that they would come back

OF five hundred. The struggle is not
