OF MATRONS To Instruct Indian Women in Affairs of a Domestic Nature. & BRO, The Good Work Already Accomplish- ed by the Few in Service—In- dians as Housekeepers. Commissioner of Indian Affairs Browning is a believer in the appointment of field ma- trons for the instruction of Indian women in the arts of domesiic life. Artisans are employed to instruct bucks in the arts of Peace, but the Indian woman is left to work out as best she can the problem of exchanging a tepee or a wigwam for a j home of civilized standard. Naturally, this | has resulted in the introduction of out-door life into the single-room log houses. Ir- regular meals prevail. The dishes are sel- dom washed, dogs are permitted to roam at will, and the corners of the room are made the receptacle for household goods of all kinds. It is common for these people to sleep on the floor. The science of sanita- tion is unknown to them. Ventilation is not understood. The vitiated atmosphere is rendered still more deadly by the box stove. Chairs and tables are disregarded. Disease follows as a natural consequence of these uncleanly conditions. The Indians do not like this species of civilization, and the Indian students, when they return from school, recoil from their home. The Indian | Woman is obedient to the custom of her sex. | She will sacrifice herself for the welfare of her children. She is industrious, and will You ought to be with us. If you knew as much as we did you would come every ‘one of these days for the values we are throwing out to you. We were counted amongst the heaviest buyers from the “Hard-up Manufacturers." They let us buy their “‘stuffs""—not at cost, but at any price we offered. We dictated terms to them. And what is the result? You are in a position to buy NEEDABLES— COMMODITIES—at prices you never heard of. Ir Is Your Gam. Ir Is Ovr Gam. YOU BECOME THE POSSESSOR OF GOODS AT LESS THAN THEIR VALUE AND WE HAVE OUR STORES CROWD- ED ALL THE TIME. NOT ALONE MAKING USE OF OUR OWN FORCE, BUT ADDING, THUS GIVING EMPLOY- MENT TO MANY OTHERS.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT TO FIND most approved white fashion, if she can HERE THIS WEEK: but learn how. But tribal custom, poverty and ignorance prevent her. The Indian girls, graduated from boarding schools, can have no appreciable effect on the current of domestic life, unless the number so graduated shall become much greater than at present. OF CARTER'S GENUINE BLACK INK, Je. Pers Borns. Matrons Needed. One girl, unaided, cannot be expected to have spent but three or six years of their Mfe in civilized surroundings, and then when she returns to her home she finds | that the conditions are so widely different that it is exceedingly difficult to apply the rules and methods which she may have learned at school. The need of outside help has been long recognized by missionary societies, and the labors of these people | have resulted in the lifting up of numbers of Indian homes. In 1868, one matron was provided for the Sioux; in 186, one was pro- vided for the Chippewa, and in 1891 an act was passed to enable the commissioner of 4o. Pr Borris. 140 Pun e.

At present there are the Yakamas, Cheyennes, Arapahoes, Mission Indians, Nebraska ' Poncas, Mexican Kickapoos, Sioux, Nava- hoes, and Moquis. The duties of these ma- trons are to sew, care for children, nurse he sick, organize societies for mental and social improvement, and do all things con- nected with domestic work.

The letter which Bishop Coxe of western New York has written to Archbishop Sa- tolli, the papal ablegate in this city, and printed in full in yesterday’s Star, has given rise to a good deal of talk among the Catholics here, who say they can see no reason or excuse for Bishop Coxe’s attack upon the Catholic Church and the repre- sentative of the pope. He has come in for @ good deal of rather harsh criticism from Catholics for the manner in which, as they say, he has rushed into the fray when there was no fray, and for what they consider his bad taste in giving the letter such com- plete publicity as he did before the time that it could possibly reach the man to whom it was addressed. The Letter Not Yet Received. A Star reporter, who called at the Catholic University yesterday afternoon, learned that the letter had not yet arrived, but that the officials at the uniyersity were acquainted with its contents through the newspapers. It was stated on good authority that when would pay not the slightest attention to it and had not the slightest intention of re- plying to it in any way. The general im- common parlance, that Bishop Coxe was attending to things that were none of his business and that it would be beneath the dignity” of the pope's representative to bother about him at all. What Bishop Keane Thinks. In the course of a conversation later about this matter, Bishop Keane, rector of the university, said to The Star reporter, “Bishop Coxe has long been known as an ecclesiastical crank, and in this present in- stance he has shown himself to be a busy- body as well. Of course, no reply will be made to this unusual break on his part. If he likes this sort of thing I suppose there is no reason why he should not indulge his curious tastes, and I am sure that no at- tention will be paid to him here. Monsig- nor Satolli would not think of dignifying such an attack by replying to it.” Dr. O’Gorman’s Remark. Dr. O'Gorman, dean of the Catholic Uni- versity, to whom a printed copy of the let- ter was shown, read it carefully and said, smilingly: “I presume that this gentleman an entire right to his opinion, but I ave nothing more to say than that.” Dr, O'Gorman handed the letter to Mgr. Satolli, but the latter declined to comment on it. —_ JUDGE COLE’S LECTURE. Talks Strongly in Sentencing a Man to the Penitentiary. In sentencing Charles Burch to two years in the penitentiary, upon a convic- jon of assault with intent to kill, Judge |Cole read the man a severe temperance |lesson, saying: “Burch, it pains me to see | you, an old soldier, a pensioner, in such a Position. It is clearly apparent that li- |quor and not you is responsible. You say that you have a wife and two small \children dependent upon you, and it was |testifled that your wife is addicted, like yourself, to drink. That makes your case still sadder. The law, most properly and humanely, provides that where a pensioner is serving a sentence like that which you |are about to undergo, his pension shall, |during the term of imprisonment, go to the pensioner’s wife. and if he have no wife to |the pensioner’s children. Now, I do not |believe under the circumstances that your wife should be allowed to receive your |pension, for I belieye that the children | would receive little, if any, of it. There- fore, I shall endeavor to see that your your term of imprisonment you will resolve to leave liquor alone hereafter. You have been in trouble before, and it was due, a: in this case, to strong drink. You are nearly sixty years of age, but not too old to begin better man, a good husband and father, and never let me see you here again.” ——_—_ NATIONAL BASE BALL LEAGUE. Annual Meeting to Be Held at New York Tomorrow. The National Baseball League is meeting at New York today, but little of gen- eral interest will be transacted. No rules will be changed, all amendments being re- ferred for report at the spring meeting. In consequence of the rule requiring a three- fourths affirmative vote of the members of that organization on a proposition to trans- fer a franchise to any city not a member of the league, the deal between Detroit and Cleveland has not yet taken definite shape. President Robinson will submit a request to the league meeting in New York that the sources it is learned that this will be re- fused, because it is not believed that De- troit can support a national league club. As was announced in The Star about two months azo, a number of Washingtonians interested in base ball have been trying to agree on terms with the Wagne> brothers for the purchase of the Washington Club franchise. The Wagners repeatedly said that they would not sell, but finally inti- mated that they were willing to consider the matter Mr. Walte> Hewett, who owned the old National League club here after his father’s death, and whose career as a base ball magnate ended in 189 with the collapse of the Atlantic League club here, is the leader in the syndicate that proposes to buy the club. He will see the owners in New York, but it is hardly likely that te-ms will be agreed upon before next spring. A gen- tleman, who is well posted on base ball matters, is authority for the statement that the ball club will be in local hands next season. There are some who believe that this will effect a marked improvement in the playing of the team. BRAZILIAN CRUISER. A NEW The Benjamin Constant About Ready to Sail for Toulon. The new Brazilian cruiser Benjamin Con- stant, which is about to sail from Toulon, is said to carry the heaviest rapid-fire gun battery afloat. | The Benjamin Constant is a new cruiser. |She was launched less than one year ogo Jat Toulon. Her principal features are: Length, 236.2 feet; beam, 446 feet; depth, 26.9 feet; mean draught, 18 feet, and dis- placement, 2,750 tons. The battery consists of four 6-Inch rayid- fire guns, mounted in barbette turret: |on the forecastle and two on the ponj There are eight 47-inch ‘reesh-ioading rapid-fire guns, mounted in broadside cn the |main deck, and in addition eight light rapid- | fire guns and four torpedo tubes. A protective deck covers the vitals of the vessel. The engines can develop 2,300 indicated horse power, and are designed to give a speed of 14 knots an hour. ‘here is mo cruiser in the Brazilian navy that can be deemed a match for the Benjamin Conrtant. At the southwest corner of sth and D streets southwest there is a family, whose condition appeals to the charitable. The family consists of man, wife and two chil- dren, named Jenkins. Their deplorable cir- cumstances are due to the fact that the father a few weeks ago, while employed by the District government, broke his arm, which was subsequently amputated. Since then he has broken the other arm and be- come perfectly helpless. In addition, he is now having hemorrhages. The young wife can do nothing toward the support of the family, and the wolf is at their door. ———____ Death of Mrs. Lester A. Barr.

Their pockets were filled with cigars, tobacco and numerous articles such as are found in any ordinary grocery store, and off to the police station they went. There the prisoners confessed that they had entered and robbed the store of Jesse E. Giladmon, corner of New Jersey avenue and Pierce street. They had pried open the Goor with a jimmy and had removed more than $100 worth of groceries to a vacant lot near- by, from where they had expected to take them later in the morning. The patrol wagon was sent to the lot and the goods were taken to the police station. Yesterday morning the prisoners were measured and photographed for the rogues’ gallery.
