BALTIMORE, Jyne 19.—The pope's let- ter on the American school (Fmsthm, now in the handsof Cardinal Gibbons, endorses and urhhlds the position taken by Mgr. Sato[li, Cardinal Gibbons and Archbishop Ineland. The pope instructs the American hierarchy that the de- crees of the third plenary council held in Baltimore in 1544 uhu(l be enforced in a general way, These decrees com- mand Cathol1d pafents to procure atruly Christian and Cgtholic education for their children and’ to shield and secure them throughout childhood and youth from the dangers of a merely worldly education by sending them to parochial or other truly Catholic schools. The pn&m does not condemn or treat with in- difference the public school, but desires rather that by the joint action of civil and ecclesiastical * authorities, there shall be public schools in every state ac- cording as the circumstances of the peo- ple require for the cultivation of the useful arts and natural science The pope, in his favorable decision in the special case of Archbishop Ireland regarding the Faribault and Stillwater schools, iterated, as he reiterates now, that wherever the exigencies of the case may require, such as the temporal condition of the people, bishops are per- mitted to enter into such agreement and arrangement with the local civil authorities as are best calculated to pre- serve the morals of the children. ‘Lhe letter will be given out this week. 4 for an all around roast .

Wyman moved that 875 be transferred from the occupation fund to pay D. A. Pierce and Henry Ditzen for extra work performed in making out the assessment rolls. Carried. Councilman Wyman introduced a resolu- tion to the effect that the city attorney be instructed to draw up an ordinance ordering water mains laid from Twenty-second and Q streets ssouth to 'T'wenty-second and S. thence east to Twenticth, thence to Bellvue avenue, south to Madison and east one block, fourteen plugs in ali. The cost, he said, would be in the neighborhood of 800 a year. This he considered a small item in comparison to the demand of water n case of fire. The people over in Brown park d Albright needed firt protection badly. at section had been damaged heavily in the past by fire, all because there was no water. Bulla and Conley said the proposi- tion should go over for one week, as there were other sections needed fire plugs, and they could all be ordered at once. The reso- lution w: lopted. The 1% Telegraph company came in by several members for not filling up large and dangerous holes where they héive removed the poles and failed to plank them over. Wyman had his improvement clothes on last night and introduced a resolution that the city attorney be instructed to draft an ordinance requiring the laying of a sidewalk of stone or some other good materinl on beth sides of U street from Twenty-fourth to Twénty-seventh, He said that the pres- ent walks would bea disgrace toa small village and that in passing over them in places one would imagine they were passing u\'urnxollluon bridge. The resolution was adopted. Bruce moved that the council sitasa board of equalization on June 20, July 2 and 3 for the purpose of discussing the special tax on sloping banks, sidewalks and grading. He did not get a second and the matter will go over for one week. bal- Baker's Lamb, “That man Frickie,” said an old resident toa BEE reporter yesterday, ‘as a thrifty old farmer and I am surprised that he would be foolish enough to let any one fleece him out of his money. He is rich today and has made it all farming in this neighborhood. 1 remember the day he bought the first 160 acres of land he ever owned. After the price_was agreed upon in Omana Frickio said he would have to go out to the farm to started and in a few hours he came back with the full amount, something like 82,500, all in shin plaster, not a piece of which was greater than 50 cents. 1t made a wad as big as a bale of hay. The old fellow i d saved this out of money receiv r butter, eggs, chickens and garden truck raised on rented ground. They had the money planted somewhere on the place,not a cent of it being in the bank.” rom n Buggy. City Clerk Ditzen and Charley Splitt were thrown from a buggy at 30th and Q streets last evening and both were painfully in- jured. Mr. Ditzen was unable to attend the council meeting last night, but escaped with- out any boues being broken. Mr. Splitt sus- tained several broken ribs. He is a large, heavy man and is suffering much pain. At the time of the accident the men were en- deavoring to evade a runaway horse, when their buggy was upset and both men were dashed out. John Reoan, a man_employed at the pack- ing house, claims that he was held up by footpads on Sunday night _and relieved of £ in cash and his pocketknife. The men stuck a gun in his face and told him to de- liver over what money he had and he did so. Thrown Lost in the Fire. Mrs. Pierce, o lady who has furnished rooms on the third floor of the Lister block, sustained more damage by the recent fire than was at first reported, and as the lady had no insurance the loss will fall heavily upon her. She had just fitted up the rooms on that floor and the carpets and furniture in all of them were more or less damaged by water and falling plaster. The fire orig- inated on this floor, and had it not been for the prompt and thoughtful getion of this lady the whole building woulda have burned, The work she did with a few buckets of water before the firemen arrived prevented a firlon\z conflagration. Her loss is about #2050, and as the woman works hard for her living she feels the effects very much, Jack’s Hurd Luck, “Jack Leonard, better known as ‘“Wiener- urst Jack,” is in hard luck. Two weeks agbiop the night of the heavy rain storm, Jack climbed onto the roof of his shack at the foot of N street to stop a leak, when he fell to the ground in such & manner as to break his jaw. He had not recovered from the effects of this injury when he was ar- rested on complaint of John Snively for not purchasing tags for his dogs. Saturday he was placed n the station house, but was 5o sick over Sunday that he wats yesterday taken to St. Joseph's hospital His condition is very critical and 1t is doubt- ful if old Jack's familiar voice will ever be heard again_on the corners he has haunted with his weinerwurst basket for years, Maglo City Gossip.
