ABYSSlNIA MAY CLOSE
BREACH WITH VATICAN
Mussolini's Penetration Policy Aids
Healing of Coptic Church of
Ethiopia Schism.


By the Associated Press
Adds ABABA. Ahyssinia. April 10.
-Mussolini's policy Of political pene-
tration in Abyssinia is indirectly
achieving what the Vatican and scores
of Christian martyrs have been unable
to do over a period OF 13 centuries.
The increase in Italian political and
commercial activity during 1926 in the
African kingdom. whose ruler, Queen
Waizeru Zaudltu. claims descent from
King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba.
is paving the way. according to the
missionaries. toward healing the
schism between Rome and the Coptic
Church Of Ethiopia.
Christianity was founded in Ethf-
opia In 341 by st. Frumentius, but I'm
the seventh century broke away from
Rome and allied itself with the Coptic
Church of Egypt. Since then. with the
exception of eight years time during
the seventeenth century, Ethiopian
Christians have obtained their supreme
spiritual head by the strange custom
Of buying" their bishops for large
sums of money from the Coptic patri-
arch at Cairo.
Countless numbers of Roman Cath
olic missionaries have given their lives
in fruitless attempts to bring back
the Philippians to the Roman fold. the
most notable recent martyr being Mi
chael Ghebre. who died in the middle
nineteenttr~century and was elevated
at altar honors by Pope Plus XI.

with sharp blades, designed to resist any

completed the means of defense.

and plated with sheet iron, to resist fire,
Of the fort, and over this main entrance
was a square watch tower from the top
of the belfry surmOunting which rose a
tall Flagstaff. This watch tower consisted
of a single room, with windows on all
sides and had a spy glass unite on a
pivot. A sentry was stationed here Coz
tinuOusly. The room provided a chair and
a bed for his convenience. If anything
unusual were noticed, he sounded an alarm
and the proper precautions were taken. A
huge bell in the watch tower Ounde the
hours for meals. Perhaps the only feature
of the place which might come under the
head Of luxury was a combination bar and
billiard room which was housed in a sec
Ond story room above the walls at the
back.
The various warehouses, stores and liv-
ing rooms were ranged around the walls of
the fort and opened into the courtyard
within. Whenever Indians were permitted
within the walls for trade purposes, the
~cannOns were loaded and s~entries patrOlled
the walls ready for action on an instant's
notice. The cOrrals were outside the struc-
ture and we're constructed sOlidly of wood,
with cactus plants on the top Of the walls
to prevent any maurauders from "gOing

Difficulties of Building
The difficulties of building Bent's Fort
were many. 1t was determined by the
brick in order to make it ireprOOf, so that
it could not be burned by the Indians.
Adobe construction was, moreover, more
durable and more comfortable than wooden
logs. Mexican labor was imported, as
many as 100 men being employed at a
time.
A short time after the first laborers had
arrived, smallpox broke out among them
and it was necessary to send away those
not attacked by the disease. Kit Carson
was at the post at the time, and he, with
the Bent brothers, was a victim Of the
epidemic, but none of the white men died

0NE hundred and twenty-four
years ago, when the United
~ States government purchased
from Napoleon that vast domain
known as Louisiana Territory, TINS
ACQUISITION was not valued very high
" for anything other than a stra-
tegic possessiOn. BY even the most
shrewd statesmen in those days, II
was for commercial purposes a value
less asset. Even after Captains Lewis
and Clark had found their sought-for
route to the Pacific the face value OF
the land west of the Mississippi did
not increase save for it's possibilities
through trade in furs. However, a
century ago, fur was gold in those
sections then known as the frontier;
and the news that fur bearing ami
mails existed in abundance in the
Rocky mountain region lured many
an intrepid spirit into the wilderness.
New companies were organized and
their emissaries were sent up the
Missouri and into the heart of the
great plains country to establish forts
and solicit trade with the savages.
The Free Trappers
Lewis and Clark had, through the sue
cess which had attended their daring enter
prise, taken down the bars of horror which
had attended the mention of the western
region, and thereby opened up a new neld
for adventure. In addition to the great
new companies, there went into the
Far West q peculiarly individual class Of
adventures to hunt and trap and explore
trappers and of all the motley thrOng
which sailed forth to defy the ever pres
ent dangers Of the wild new land, they
were the NEST romantic and, indeed, the
vnnCf n nnrfonf uvhnn tho ACKNOWLEDGEMENT C
that have attended the making of history
in the Old West are considered. q
These men accounted to no boss" They
were what might be termed the free
lances'' of the fur era. Each of them went
forth into the wilderness to fight his own
fight and to survive or perish as the
fruits of his endeavOrs might devise. Trav-
cling alone, or in small bands, they proved
themselves to be men picked by nature for
great enterprises and great needs.
Lured by Adventure
Theirs was not a mission aimed at gain
for it's own sake. To the free trappers, a
pack Of beaver constituted but a mere
gamblers stake to be riOtOusly sQuandered
after the fashion Of a drunken sailor
Their ambitions, their cOnqueStS and theil
accomplishments emerged from an impeH'
