Mr.. Evelyn Smiths defense of his interest

theory he set up was that the husband

Resolutions Thanking "Tho Evening
WOrld.o
To ns Editor If 1hs Eren,ng World:
At the meeting of the Union Labor Club,
held at Clarendon Hall Sept. 8, the following
resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That the thanks Of all workingmen
are due to The EVENING. World for its honest
and fearless exposure of the rascality and dis
honesty of the Judges and officers Of our courts,
in the cases OF, Flack and Jarvis, and the efforts
now made to shield Hamilton and yet punish or
prosecute his associates.
Resolved. That the owners Of THE WORLD are
hereby requested or entreated to keep up it's
noble work Of practical charity, called the Free
Doctor Fund, with ., 900 children dying yearly
for want OF care, proper attention and nourish-
ment. The want of such a corps of doctors to
aid and assist poor mothers IL as. greatin Winter
as in Summer, and will result in the saving Of
lives of thousands of helpless innocents every
year, and may also result in such exposure of
crime and remedial legislation as win render
impossible in a civilized community such cases
Of baby sale and slaughter as the Hamilton case
OF baby farming

A Laughing Plant.

Palgrave, in his work on Central and

whose seeds produce effects analogous
to those of laughing gas. The plant
is a ma i've of Arabia. A dwarf variety
is found at kasum, aud another va
rioty at Oman, which attains a height
of from three to four feet, with woody
stems, wide-spreading branches and
lght-green foliage. Tho flowers are
produced in clusters and are yellow in
color The seed pods contain two or
three black seeds OF the size and shape
of French beans. Their flavor is a
little like that of opium; the taste is
sweet, and the odor from them pro-
duces a sickeuing sensation and is
slightly offensive. These seeds. when

Address.
The dedication of the Catholic University
of America, at Washington, like the lay
ing of the cornerstone of the building,
took place in pouring rain
The ceremonies be an at 1880 o'clock
with a short address hr Cardinal Gibbons.
This was fol owed by the chanting of the
"Veni Creator Spiritu' by $50 students of
St. Mary's seminary and st. Charles
coll eye, of Baltimore. The building was
then blessed Iy Cardinal Gibbons, while
the choir chanted "Mserere. At II
o'clock ponti cal mass of the Holy Ghost
was celebrated in the university chapel bv
Most Rev. Mgr Satolli, archbishop The
music Of the mass was sung by picked
choir Of male voices. Right Rev. r.
Gilmore, bishop of Cleveland, preached
the sermon.
The President, Vice President and all
the members of the Cabinet, except Secre-
tary Wanamaker, attended the dedication
exercises. The President was received
with great applause on entering. Mr.
Blaine who responded to the toast. "Our
Country and Her President" said he %
sponded as a representative of the United
Sta'es, not in political sense and much
less a partisan one lie did not come as
the representative of any sect, but to speak
for the principles of religic ls freedom
granted to all by the government
of the United States He had spoken
of this in Protestant assemblies and
was proud to do so now in a
Catholic assembly. Without speaking
euloglstically he ccuil say that his chief.
the President, stood as the embodiment of
the rights and liberties of all classes of
people. He was glad to hear of the en-
dowment Of every college, no matter OF
what denomination, for colleges mean cul-
ture for the people. 1t is not long since
we heard the criticism of an Englishman
on America that while it had the most
intelligent people IN the world they were
the least highly cultured. With the estab-
lishment of more colleges these criticisms
will cease, and the people of the United
States will attain as great excellence in
this direction as they have in sustaining
the government under which all people are
equal and all churches and denominations
assured of their rights
The dedicatory ceremonies closed with an
address by Bishop OFarrell and Latin
Grafton by Mgr. Schroeder.
A reception was given at night to visit
ing clergymen and laymen.
