st. Mary's Will Celebrate Gold
en- Jubilee June 14-17.
Many Catholic Church Digni-
taries Will Attend.

st. Marys, Kan, June 11.-Golden
jubilee exercises to commemorate the
granting of it's charter in 1869 will be
held by St. Mary's college, st. Marys,
Kan, during commencement week,
June IL.
St. Mary's college grew out of a
school established originally for the
Indians by Jesuit missionary priests in
1889 near what is now Centerville,
Kan This school was transferred in
1S4S to its present site, then called St.
Mary's mission. In 1851 the first
cathedral of Kansas was built here,
and St. Marys has been a Catholic
center ever since. In the early sixties
a few white students began to attend
the school, and in 1869 the charter
was granted and the school began the
work of higher education.
In it's career as a college, St. Mary's
has drawn students chiefly from Kan
sas, but in large numbers from all the
middle states. 1t is expected that the
golden jubilee celebration will see a
reunion of many alumni of every
decade of the fifty years and from
many states. A number of dignitaries
of the church have been invited
among them Archbishop .Glennon OF
st. Louis; Bishop Byrne. of Galveston

Mary's in 1885. and Bishop Lillis, OF

James Marshall replied with several OBJ

Mayor Harrison spoke. in favor of a

his family entertained fear for his life
when he was first stricken.
Sixteen years a United States sena-
tor from Wisconsin, each one of which
in the words of President Roosevelt
was "a direct financial loss which he
could i'll afford" John Colt Spooner
relinquished the position with which
the legislators of his state had thrice
honored him and retired in 1907. two
years before his completed term, to re
enter the private practice of law and
acquire a competence for his family
and himself in his declining years.
A Most Able Lawyer.
Regarded as one of the ablest con-
stitutional lawyers, a brilliant debater
and one of the greatest authorities on

few of his famous colleagues-notably
Roscoe Conkling, John G. Carlisle,
Thomas Bracket Reed and George F.
Hoar-left public office a poor man.
During the twelve years of his final
law practice in New York he was
counsel in much important litigation,
izcluding the federal government suits
against the Transatlantic shipping
Iaol. the Naval Stores and Oregon

fession so long as he was in congress,
friends said. but he habitually de-
clined to use a railroad pass or a tele-
graph frank and betrayed from his
own pocket many expenses he was en-
titled to charge to the government
Upon his retirement in 1907 the
New York Tribune said of him: HE
goes now, at the age of "a, having de-
voted sixteen years of his life to the
service of his country, to resume the
practice of his profession, without a
contract or client and with no reli-
ance for the future save his well
earned reputation. while all who have
enjoyed the privilege of associating
with him in his public career witness
his departure with sorrow"
Elihu Root, then secretary of state,
said of him: The resignation of Sem
ator Spooner is a public misfortune.
The nation owes a debt to the state of
Wisconsin for contributing him to the
work of the national government. He
will be sadly missed when congress re-
convenes and his old associates feel
the loss of his wisdom, and strength,
his courage and magnanimity."
Senator Spooner was one of the most
interesting figures to the gallery
crowds when on the floor of the SEN
ate. He was rarely absent and always
alert when legislation was in progress.
He was a good listener. Suddenly the
visitor would see him toss his massive
head back. half close his eyes and
turn his hand to his ear to catch every
word A few moments more and he
was on his feet to challenge some mis-
! statement or pierce some fallacious
reasoning.
