\ CATHOLIC PRIEST ARIES
TFDbN 4 SERIOCS
CHARGE.

Rev. j. j. Boyle assistant pastor of
the Catholic Church of the Sacred Heart
: in Raleigh was arrested and lodged in
jail charged with the most heniOus Of
Tense in the whole catalogue of crimes,
last Saturday evening. The victim of
his assault was IL Miss Geneva Whita-
ker. aged II years, Organist of the
church. whom he enticed into his room
by some means. Whathappened there,
according to the unfortunate girls
statement. was horrible. the utmost
brutality having been shown. She
screamed. whereupon he put pistol to
her head. she claims Two other per-
sons were IN the building at the time
and Miss Whitaker's female companion
was out OH the lawn. but no one heard
the screams. After the girl was allow
ed to 90. she went into an adjoining
room, washed her face and combed her
hair, it is stated. and made her way to
her home some distance away and there
told her pititul story. Upon this her
father had a warrant issued for BOyle's
arrest. When the officer went to serve
the warrant he found the priest asleep
in his room. The most intense excite
ment prevails over this horrible affair
and indignation. justly runs high. but
the people of Raleigh will deport them
selves with becoming respect. for the
majesty and justice of the law. Being
taken before the Mayor for prelimina-
~ hearing. Boyle waved an examination
and was lodged jail to await trial by
the higher court.
This is indeed shocking and sad
affair. 1t is greatly to be deplOred on
account Of the unfortunate girl. to whom
death would have been far better, the
wretched prisoner himself. the church
he presumed to represent and the good
of society. 1t is bad enough when the
debased and depraved fall still lower.
and more so when high handed crime
is perpetrated by one who by virtue of
his position should stand out as lead
er and teacher. an exemplar among
men.

the wearer all the advantages of knit
goods. while retaining the superior COM

seam, which contains no rubber, retains its
sprlnginess. and wears longer than the

drawers conform to the position of the
wearer, and avoids any strain, 10 matter

These drawers conform strictly To the
outline of the figure when standing at rest
ard give ease and comfort, and are with,
out that tightnesS of feeling necessarily
produced by other garments.
One OF the peculiarities of these drawers
Is that the seams only being elastic. they
allow remarkably easy action in walk
ing, as all the friction caused by motion is
at once transferred to the seams while the
main fabric of the drawers is allowed to
retain Its shape and position.
1t Will also be found that these Patent
Elastic Seam Drawers are equally we'll
adapted to all athletic positions. and allow
the greatest freedom and ease of motion.
In the position assumed in the above cut
not the least tension is produced on the
main portion of the goods, while the elias
tic seams allow the Transformation of the
inquire as seen in the position, which would
be impossible in others without producing
great strain on the goods and friction upon

Mr.. James H. Smith was the last
