IOWA PRIEST WINS HonoRs.
Gains Degrees in Catholic University
ia Switzerland.

Dubuque, Jan. 26.--John McCafrey,
s. T. l.. OF Holy Cross. Iowa, is the
first graduate Of ST. Joseph's college,
Dubuque, TO enter the academic arena
OF the famous Catholic university Of
Switzerland and 10 return a victor with
honors OF the licentiate in sacred the
ology. To appreciate this distinction
it must be recalled that the young
priest has been just little over three
years at the university. having been
graduated from st. Joseph's college in
1908.
This degree at the University Of Fri
bough usually requires a much longer
time. Nevertheless, this typically ener-
getic and brainy American not only
accomplished this, but in addition, COW
cred the whole field of positive theol-
ogy and practical 7-crk in preparation
for his ordination last year. Father
McCahrey is the first and only gradu-
ate of ST. Joseph's college to be en-
rolled for the speculative course in
Thonistic theology. which alone leads
to the academic degrees at this uni
versity. On his arrival in F'ribourg he
became easily the leader Of the English
speaking students, the most represen-
tative and influential of the Ameri-
cans.
Father McCaffrey is now en- route

MAD RUSH FOR GOLD.
Men, Women and Children Hurry to
Canadian Northwest.


Winnipeg, Man, Jan. 2s.-Men.
women, and even children are focking
to Minitonas, a little town on the
Canadian Northern railway, 26s miles
west Of here. Gold has been discov-
cred there, and If even only small
percentage Of the fabulous stories be-
ing told are true it is the richest find
in the history Of western Canada and
rivals the Yukon fields.
For Christmas George Elliott, a
farmer, took into Minitonas several
turkeys. When dressed particles of
gold were found in their crops. One
had several small nuggets.
The discovery was kept as quiet as
possible. while several persons went
prospecting, but without success. Then
others heard of it and traced the tur-
keys to Elliott's and there began pros
pecting.
Last week several small nuggets
were found and claims staked, but it
was not until this week that the finds
were taken seriously.
Two days ago several drills were put
to work. Yesterday gold ifl paying
quantities was struck. Today five
drills are at work around the town and
each has struck gold in seams only two
feet below the surface. George Holroyd,
Yukon miner, began work this morn
ing with a pick and shovel.
At noon he found a nugget weighing
more than seven ounces. At the next
shovelful he dug cut four and three
and a half ounce nugget.
Alexander Mackenzie found two mug
gets, each weighing five ounces. and
many other finds have been reported
in all directions from town. until it be-
comes evident that Minitonas is built
upon a bed of gold bearing black sand
similar to that found in the Yukon.
Three feet of snow covers the ground
and makes prospecting extremely dinl-
cult, but the thousands who have
rushed to the gold fields from all parts
of western Canada do not mind and
madly shovel it away to get at the pay
dirt underneath
Every one in the town is gold mad.
Business has been suspended entirely,
for every man and woman and many
children are digging and scratching
for the yellow metal.
Women in overalls are at work with
men of all nationalities. Train crews
nave deserted to join in the hunt for
gold and people are driving in from all
directions. Two trains arrived al
Minitoras yesterday and each coach
was packed to the doors.
A special train left Winnipeg yester-
day afternoon for Mnitonas carrying
nearly 500 men. The Canadian North
ern ran another special out late last
night.
Special police are being sent to
maintain order, for claim jumping is
frequent. and there have been several
serious fights.
The recorder insisted upon a $500
bond being given before he would give
a claim deed. The Hon. Robert Rogers.
minister of the interior, was appealed
to and the bond guarantee was not en-
forced.
