The Archbishop spoke of the unself- ish sacrifices made by those of the parish and all those Catholics who as- sisted and gave their energies to the establishment of the parochial schools. Such sacrifices, he said, they ought not to be asked to make, but under the cir- cumstances it was a duty they owed to God. Archbishop Montgomery spoke of the patriotism to the land which was re- vealed in their establishment of such schools as that one which they had come to dedicate. While it meant to them a sacrifice, in that very sacrifice was the deepest patriotism. They made the sacrifice for the glory of God and for good citizenship. There has already been a full descrip- tion of the school in The Call. The ex- cellence of the construction impressed those who inspected the building yes- terday.

This con- sisted mainly of personal property, in- cluding a large and valuable collection of shells, fossils, minerals, antiquities and rare books, three volumes of the latter alone being valued at $10,000.

Archbishop Montgomery In congratu- | 1ating the Christiang Brothers and the parishioners for their efforts in erecting so complete and fine a school directed the attention of his hearers to the ne- cessity of placing in the hands of chil- dren those works which would do good and could not be hurtful. If the schools of the parishes, he said, could give-.to | the young a taste for resding and dis- crimination as to the works that should be read it would be the means of ac- | complishing a great good. He said that Catholics did not seem to be a reading people, and he spoke of the necessity for an establishment which he considered should be loaded with literature of the church. ADVICE TO PARENTS. He considered there was something radically wrong when a book store wherein their literature was to be had had also to depend upon the sale of paintings and other articles for its maintenance. He also wished to im- press upon the minds of parents the necessity of a Catholic paper being 4aken in the homes. The young should be brought into contact with and have the opportunity of reaching the literature which would assist them in their future life. Sacrifice was the next topic treated and capacious, and every modern con- trivance for the comfort of the pupils has been adopted. THE CLERGY PRESENT.

SAN JOSE, Jan. 10.—The skeleton | found in the Pacheco hills has been identified as that of T. F. Porter, the Fresno printer, who disappeared in De- cember, 1897. Edward Porter, the father, and his i sister, Mrs, Carr of Santa Cruz, came | here this afternoon to investigate the matter. Porter identified the keys found ias those belonging to his son’s trunk | and valise and the revolver as one he himself had owned. The elder Porter | had brought the revolver across the | plains with him, and when a young boy | the deceased had shot himself in the | hand with it. | A. C. Banta, a local bicycle dealer, ! identified the bicycle found as that be- | longing to Porter, whom hé' knew in | Fresno. { This determines the identity of the | | dead man, but whether it was a case of murder or suicide is still a mystery. Porter believes his son was murdered. At the time of his disappearance the | hunters around Los Banos had been disturbed by detectives, and it is de- clared they had threatened death to any officer captured. Porter believes his son was mistaken for a detective and shot. T. E. Jones, a detective sent to Los Banos to investigate Porter's disappearance, the father states, had his life also threatened by the hunters. The father believes that his son after being killed was carried into the Pa- checo hills. An inquest will be held here to-morrow. —_—— Facts are stubborn things, but they meet their match when they run up against thq confirmed optimist.— Puck. ) | PRONPT ACTION ON THE TREATY Republican Leaders in the Sen- ate Plan the Early Disposi- tion of All Panama Questions S ST TN WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.—At the be- ginning of to-morrow's session the Sen- ate will resume consideration of the Penrose and Carmack resolutions for an investigation of irregularities in the Postoffice Department. ‘The nomination of Buchanan to be Minister to Panama remains unacted upon, and discussion of it will be re- sumed at the executive session of the Senate. Senator Lodge of the Commit- tee on Foreign Affairs has given notice of his intention to move to lay on the table Senator Morgan's motion to re- consider the vote by which Buchanan’s nomination was confirmed, but will not make the motion until it is evident dis- cussion is exhausted. The motion when made will be undebatable, and, if it prevails, will bring discusssion to an end.

Its report will be submitted to the City Council to-morrow evening and if that body concurs in the recom- mendations of the special committee the Chicago theaters, with the possible exception of three, probably will open their doors within a week or ten days. The three theaters may not be per- mitted to open because their stages and auditoriums are more than fifteen feet above the street level. 2 The theaters that agree to conform to the new regulations will bé permit- ted to open under certain restrictions and with the understanding that they comply with every provision of the new law regulations before October 1. In the meantime the galleries that have inadequate exit facilities will be closed | and two to four firemen detailed on the stage.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10.—A large automobile took a leap off Raymond | Hill bridge at Pasadena at 11 o'clock this morning and sent two of its oec- cupants crashing on a railroad track thirty feet below. The third man grabbed hold of the bridge and hung there, fanning the air with his legs until he had to let go from exhaustion and dropped to the ground. The mir- aculous part of the affair is that no- body was hurt beyond a few bruises. John Pearson, a professional chauf- feur of Los Angeles; Tom Pillow, a colored chauffer of Pasadena, and W. | E. Holcomb, a friend of Pearson, were in the accident. Pearson was treating | his frieads to a trial of a new four- | seater that weighed about two tons. He drove it to Pasadena. The bridge on which the accident happened spans the Santa Fe and Salt Lake Railroad tracks. It also spans a cut for the abandoned California cycleway. Between this cut and the | Santa Fe tracks is a wall of earth fif- teen feet thick that reaches up to within seven or eight feet of the bridge. When the auto car dashed through the frail side of the bridge, | tearing away the railing, its front wheels, dropping suddenly downward, lodged firmly in this little embank- ‘ment, leaving the rear wheels clinging to the rim of the bridge. It was this sudden stop that hurled the occupants of the car with such force and also had the effect of keeping the automo- bile from landing on top of its passen- gers. | | r——————— Mechanical Minded Birds.
