Discovered Yellowstone Park.-Rev.
Francis X. Kuppens, S. j., Is years
old, is the last survivor of the re-

and appreciate his marvellous contrlbu-
ton to the Church in the West and
to the country at large-for it was
this priest who discovered the Yellow

ing it a national park. He has driven

powerful hands, in order to give the
sacramento of the Church to all.
