DIVIDE THE LAND.
THE POPE WANTS A LARGER
NUMBER OF LAND OWNERS.
If by Act of Legislature a Greater Number
of Persons Could Own Land, the
Pope Would Approve.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, Nov. 15.-Right Rev.
Manager O'Bryan arrived here yesterday.
He was interviewed last night in regard to
the encyclical of the pope and the contro-
versy as. to the possession of private
rights in property and the reply of Henry
George, which has worked so much discus
sion. Manager O'Bryan is the papal
chamberlain, and as he left Rome two
months since special authority is attached
to his utterauces. He said III effect that
while the pope spoke upon faith aud morals
his utterances were always eN cathedro,
even in a letter, while the encyclical letter
was not
VIII not the letter strike blow to the
Catholics holding socialistic tendenciesl
own opinions and to discuss them.
My idea is that the Socialists believe
that some individuals own too much prop
erty and that redistribution should be
effected. 1t seems hardly right that OF
5000, 900 of people, only ten thousand should
own lands. 1t is impossible that all men
should give up their rights. but if the land
was re-distributed the pope would agree
to the new order of affairs. If by act Of
the legislature greater number of persons
could own land it would be very good.
Except in the matter of certain recommen-
dations the Catholic world was not inter-
ested in this. He regarded the letter of
Archbishop Carrigan of New York, as the
best authority. Manager O'Bryan contin-
ued: IN his letter the pope did nothing ut
enforce the principles contained in
the commandment, thou shalt not
steal. Private property in land had existed
in all time. To deny that the pope had no
right to enforce that principle, would be to
deny the actual fact of its existence.
Did the pope speak ex-cathedro on this
matter?
The pope speaks ex-cathedro on subjects
of faith and morals. He is the ultimate
referee on earth He speaks with author
ity because he guards the right of indi-
viduals,

VERNON'S SENSATION.
Sentiment About Equally Divided as to
the Guilt or Innocence of
Ben Rich.

Special to the Gazette.
VERNON, WILBARGER COUNTY, TEX, Nov.
15.-Vernon is in the midst of q sensation.
About the middle of September young
Hebrew by the name of Ben Rich took Miss
Lula Porter out for Sunday drive. The
young lady was brought home in an uncon-
scious condition, fingered few hours and
died withot ginning consciousness. Rich
reported that while the young lady was
driving carelessly along she accidentally
dropped the lines, and as he jumped to the
ground the team became frightened,
ran off and threw the lady out,
fracturing her skull. Rich appeared to be
almost FRUSTRATED with grief and remained
by the lady's bedside until death. After
the funeral Rich Immediately left for his
home in Dallas. where he has since resided.
There We're whispers of foul play at the
time.
Miss Porter was engaged to Tennessee
man named Moore, who arrived here
shortly after the accident and Immediately
an investigation began. The grass was
burned along the road where the accident
occurred, and piece of iron wrapped in
strip of carpet was found. The carpet
corresponds exactly with a piece taken
from the carpet in the room occupied by
Rich at the hotel. The carpet was tied
with strip of necktie that also cor
responds with his tie. 1t has been discov-
cred also that Rich told friend that the
young lady would never marry Mr.. Moore.
This is claimed as motive for the murder
Of it is murder), 1t was upon this evil
dence that warrant was sworn out for his
arrest, and he was brought in from Dallas
last night by Deputy Sheriff Pat Henry.
Sentiment as to his guilt or innocence is
about equally divided, and our people are
greatly excited over the affair. Rich is
now in Jail awaiting examination. Miss
Porter was the daughter of J. w. Porter,
proprietor of the Central hotel. These are
the facts as near as we can get them from
responsible parties.

500 spectators who had assembled there TO

which, however, did not interfere with the
play. The ground was quite soft and made
the absorption of dust easier than fine runs.

at II 80 a. IN. the Dallas club was met by a
delegation of the Fort Worth players, who
escorted them up Rusk street to the
Mansion hotel, where the entire party sat
down to dine. Covers were laid for fifty
and the dinner was heartily enjoyed by all.

rendered to the clubs by Mr.. H. w. Tallant
were soon filed up and theaentire party
proceeded to the Heights.

ladies about five hundred spectators were
present, and after some preliminary prac-
tice both teams lined up at 3 O'Clock sharp,
Dallas facing the east and Fort Worth the
west goal. The home team Wore crimson
jerseys and their visitors black jerseys
with white combinations. The two teams
were not ureyenly matched, with the eX-
ception that Dallas averaged heavier,
Mr.. G. c. Ri vers of the Fort Worth and

pire was selected. both teams agreeing that
ali disputed points should be decided by
their respective captains, which arrange
