Bishop O'Reilly Offi

Ceremony.
FATHER P. J. O'REILLY SPEAXS
Dallvera Brilliant Addraae on
Cnrlatian Education
Taxt of Document En
closed In Corner
Stona Box.
Before a large assemblage of
Catholics and non-Catholics,
with fervent oratory and the im
pressive ritual of the Church the
corner stone of the St Thomas
Aquinas Academy, now in process
of construction, was laid Sunday
afternoon, the Right Rev. C. J.
O'Reillcy, of Baker City, biBhop
for the Eastern Oregon diocese,
Father P. J. O'Reilly, recently
from.California, and Rev. Thomas
Cantwell, pastor of the local
church, taking part in the sol
emn excerciscs.
Father O'Reilley delivered a
brilliant address on "Christian
Education" which was listened
to with intense attention by the
large gathering. The speaker is
a member of ihe Order of Jesuits
and is engaged in missionry work,
lie possesses a resonant voice
and has a pleasing delivery. He
said that to the stranger coming
a decade ago nothing but a vast
wilderness would have greeted
his eyes but how different today.
The traveler finds himself in a
town with promises fair, with
jytizena proud of their local ins
Vtftutions. He paid a fitting trib
ute to the citizens who had made
it possible for the school to be
started in this community. He
said he was grateful to be pres
ent at the ceremonies which
mark one of the brilliant epochs
in the history of the institution.
He said in Dart: "We Catholics
believe in an education that cul-i
tivates the heart as well as the
mind and trains the child to obey
their parents and the precepts of
religion. Education is the pro
cess of drawing out, not cram
ming into a child. It has a
two fold purpose -the training
of the mind in profane know
ledge and the training of the
heart to respond to those virtues
that make strong Christian
men and women." He spoke
eloquently of the Dominican Sis
ters of New York under whose
auspices the school will be con
ducted. "Peculiarly well fitted
are these noble women," said
the clergyman," and I might say
appropriately without offending
anyone, better fitted than any
other class of teachers to bring
this work of education to
splendid consummation. They
have given up home, and all so
cial preferments and have con
secrated their lives to the noblest
of all callings teaching." The
speaker said that religion and
learning can not be divorced and
virtue and learning go hand in
hand. He called attention to the
importance of the school from a
commercial point of view and
Domted with pride to the exam
ple of Gonzaga College in Spo
kane which has grown tremend
uously in the past few years.
The corner stone bearing the
, inscription, "St. Thomas Aquinas
JM3)SAcademy 1908 A. D." was put
in place by. Bishop O'Reilly and
was dedicated according to the
Catholic ritual. The noted pre
late made a few remarks and

JOHN DAY IRRIGATION
PROJECT ABANDONED
Aotlon of Reclamation Sarvlca
Said to Ba Only Temporary
Will Mean Mnch to
Town of Arlington.
The John Day irrigation pro
ject has been temporarily aban
doned because of the out
lay required. For some weeks
past it had been rumored that
the government would immedia
tely install a large electric pump
ing station on the Columbia
river between Arlington and
Umatilla for use on the John Day
irrigation project and ultimately
for auxiliiary use in filling the
reservoirs.
It has been learned through an
U. S. Irrigation expert that the
project has been abandoned. It
is not definitely known just ex
actly what amount the state of
Oregon will receive as its share
of appropriation from the recla
mation fund. It is estimated
that the John Day project will
cost $6,000,000.
U. S. Senator Ankcny.of Walla
Walla is quoted by an exchange
as saying: "Yes, the John Day
project has been thoroughly
investigated at Washington. No
doubt it will be the next large
project the reclamation service
will take in hand."
The construction of this pro
ject will mean much to Arlington.

was ouite acceptable for it was
replete with fun and laughter.
The little girl that did the sing

young a child. The program
consisted of farces, songs, dan

lamp back of the wings. The
actor was in the midst of an act
when the lamp fell and started a
conflagration of considerable
magnitude. The Thespian rushed
to the scene of the fire,
speaking his lines all the while
and maintainng rare presence of

Kerosene lamps were resorted to
because the electric circuit
which connects with the opera
house was put out of commission,

mer chaplain of Gonzaga College
in Spokane. Wash., opened an
eight day's mission in the Cath
olic church last Sunday at 10 a,m
The church is too small to ac

ment;" on Saturday night the
the theme will be "The Real
Presence. ' ' Sunday evening the
