THEAIM OfTnE CATHOLIC CHURCH.

OsE II the most significant signs Of
the times Is the gradual fc.uscltatlon Of
the power Of the Roman Catholic
Church. II Is In fair way to absorb
the Protestant sects, which appear 10
be- hopclcssly affected with religious
consumption. The mother church is
accommodating strength aud, stmDgc NJ
Il may seem, her power has better aud
larger scope under democracy than
monarchy, because by the operation Of
her vast clerical machinery she can, by
commanding votes, dictate terms.
Political power aud the sustaining
sentiment OF tho masses circumscrlbo
all other earthly influence. To tho
accumulation Of these forces the
Roman Church has sst her energies In
operation. We have In tho past directed
attention to the fact that she was aim
lug to again become mistress Of the
world. and We observe that such q
view IL gaining ground. The Sydney

las, Laid 10 Rest.
Odd Fellows Hall Filled With DELEGATIONS
From the Beneficiary societies-An I'm
pressive Ceremonial.

The funeral of Nestell c. Bovee, only son
OF w. Ii. Bovee of the real estate firm of
Bovee, Toy & Co.. this city, took place from
Odd Fellows Hall yesterday, and attracted
large gathering of sympathizers, friends
and brethren of the order to which the de-
ceased belonged.
When the news of the Adjutants death
was made known by circular issued by
Colonel j. c. Lohmeyer, commanding the
First Regiment, Uniformed Rank. Knights
OF Fythias, the usual orders were given to
parade the various divisions at the funeral,
and the response yesterday was quite fiatter-
ing. Over 100 knights turned out, and even
Colonel Lohmeyer himself, though suffering
from dangerous and painful malady. con-
trived TO be present, though unable to wear
his uniform or take active part in the cere-
monies His place was taken by Lieu
tenant Colonel Hurlburt, and Colonel An

1t had been expected that little friction
might arisel in the struggle for precedence
among the societies to which MIR. Bovee he
longed, but the matter was easily smoothed
out by having the services in Odd Fellows

AFTER MANY YEARS.

Parting After Quarrel to Meet in the
Poorhouse Sixty Years After.
A few days ago a gray-haired, wrinklad
old woman passed through this city in the
cars. More than sixty years ago this wO-
man married George Irving, an industrious
young mechanic. They lived together in
one of the towns in the northern part OF the
State a few years. happy and contented.
Then trouble came and in a moment of
anger they separated. No divorce was
sought. They simply agreed to live apart.
They have kept their vow. During more
than half century they have never seen
each other. though at times they have lived
only few miles apart. Each married again.
The husbands second wife died year ago,
while Mrs. Irving's second husband, one
Benson, has been under the sod for twelve
years. When he died Louisa became public
charge, and for the past dozen years she has
been in the po0rhouse at Enfield. Since
Irving's wife died he has been an inmate of
the Hopknton aimshouse. A little while
ago the Enfield authorities learned the story
of the woman's life. After some corre-
spondence it was decided that Mrs Irving
Benson was still Irving's wife, as she had
never been divorced, and that she legally

FROM SALTON LAKE.
What Howard ii. Cone, the South.
ern Pacific Agent, Says.
The Water Has Come to Stay and Will Be-
come Permanent Body of Water, Filling
the Basin Level With the Gulf.

Says the Pasadena Star of August 18th:
Howard j. Cone, who for the past year has
been the agent of the Southern Pacific Rail-
way Company at Salton, is at homein South
Pasadena on leave Of absence for few
weeks, and yesterday business called him
into the Star Office, which afforded the OPP
portunity for a talk with lin about the
Salton sea, or lake. that has caused so much
interest throughout the country. Mr.. Cones
family hGnored him with their presence
last winter for several months. but The
summer season is not of character TO
tempt people 10 enjoy its charms, and they
have wisely remained at South Pasadena Of
late. Mr.. Cone says temperature of 1850
and 1907 in the shade is quite a regular and
common thing at Salton. but that the few
White people about the station and salt
works manage to stand it pretty well.
They perspre pr0fusely and drink enor-
mousIy, all the water used at the station be-
ing brought from up the road by rail. They
find that mixing oatmeal with the water is
nourishing and that it prevents Illness. De-
spite the great heat sectiOnmen work out
IN the hot sun regularly, but, with the ex-
ception of the boss, they are MexIcans.
Mr.. Cone brought up some excellent pho
tographs of the lake, the station and the
submerged salt works from different points
of VIEW He says the inflow and the evap-
Grafton Of the water about counterbalance
each other, and that therefore the level Of
the lake remains about the same, although
the wind sometimes carries floating debris
back and forth in way to lead to the be-
lief that the water is rising or falling. He
believes it likely that the basin will con-
tinue to ill up from the Colorado River to
a level with the gulf, and that it will be a
perma ent body Of water, with the Colo
RADIO flowing through it to the gulf
The salt deposits are entirely under
water and that industry is ruined. The
warehouse and small portion of the
Southern Pacifc's track running beyond to
the salt beds are still above the level of the
lake, but the main track is still thousand
feet or more from its banks.

ORGANIZED LABOR.
Employers Plan to Break the
M0lders' Strike.
Union Shops Passing Under the Control of the
Bosses Comb:ne-Trouble Expected on
the Water Front To-Day.

The Iron FoundrIes' and Engineers Asso-
citation have hill upon plan by which they
hope to break the back of the molders'
strike. The plan has been put into opera
ton and has already brought forth fruit
that gladdens its projectors eyes.
When the molders' strike was iuaugurated
on March 8. 1899. the Employers Associa-
ton. whose shops were deserted, was COM
posed of the proprietors of fourteen foun-
dries, the most important In the city, in
Guiding the Union Iron Works, the
National, the Fulton, the Mines, the Archi-
tectural. the City. the Risdon and the Occi-
dental Works. There were sixteen shops
that were not represented in the association
and were not controlled by it. They EN-
ployed members of the union, and the jour
neymen who worked for them were assessed
% per week for the support of the strikers.
Not only were these men assessed, but all
the members OF the union who after the
strike left the city we're taxed TO prolong the
hight There are fourteen members of the
union at work in the Sandwich Islands, and
they have paid their quota without o muir
muir.
The employers did all in their power to
break the strike. Carload after carload OF
non-union men were imported from the
East TO take the strikers places, and it Is
whispered that the law prohibiting the I'M
portation of foreign labor under contract
was broken, yet the union triumphed. The
imported men were bought off or driven off
with the help of the money subscribed by
the mOlders employed in the union shops
and he funds contributed by sympathetic
organizations.
Then the employers learned that there
was an organization of molders hostile to the
union OF " hch the strikers were members,
and 1t was induced TO send on some Of its
adherentS TO work in The struck foundries.
But here, as with the nOn-uniOn men, the
strikers triumphed, and the ''red-card'
crowd went back to their homes.
1t was then thought that the employers
were at the end Of their resources, but such,
1t appears, was not the case. They gave up
importing men and turned their attention
to the sixteen union shops from which the
strikers received most of their revenue. 1t
is said that they first began to underbid
these men until their business was no longer
lucrative. Now they are inducing them 10
oppose the union. Two out of the sixteen
have already got rid of their union work
men. another has reduced wages. another is
said to be on the eve of Joining the employ
ers' combine, and times are dull in the shops

its crisis, aud few weeks Will determine

NET A HORRIBLE DEATH.

A Vicious Horse Attacks Man and Lit
orally Tears Him to Pieces.
George Ross met horrible death yester-
day. His employer sent him out to drive
stray horse from the yard adjoining the
residence. When Ross approached the
horse it rushed at him and bit him in the
forehead and cheek. Ross started to run
across the field and the horse pursued him
knocking him down, and attempted to
trample on him. Ross succeeded again in
getting out of the way, and, jumping to his
feet, tried to escape. The horse, however,
pursued him, and biting at his shoulder, tore
a large piece of flesh from il. The man
screamed In agony, and the attention of
negro who was passing along was attracted
by it. He instantly jumped the fence and
picking up piece of rail, started toward
the man and beast on run. Before he
could reach them the horse had knocked
Ross to the ground and this time struck
him on the head with his hoof instantly kill
ing the unfortunate man. just at this
juncture the negro arrived on the spot but
tripped over the rail and fell to the ground,
striking his head on stone, and was rem
dered unconscious. The horse paid no atten-
ton TO the negro, who. after the infurate
beast had been shot, was brought TO unn-
jured. Ross body was shOckingly bruised,
his whole right cheek torn out, his shoulder
gone, his head crushed in like an egg shell,
and the brains scattered about the ground.

UNIFORMED KNIGHTS AT PYTH1AN CASTLE

1000 members of the beneficiary societies
with which the deceased was corrected

At 30 o'clock the Uniformed Knights

A DYNAMITE BOMB.
Attempt to Blow Up the Schooner
Annie Larsen.
A Stringer Blown to splinters-P Pieces of Fuse
Left to Tell the Tale-A Fright
ened Chinese Cook.

A daring attempt was made to blow up
the schooner Annie Larsen, lying at Pacific
street Wharf, last evening.
The people In the vicinity of the wharf at
half-past o'clock were startled by bright
flash, accompanied by terrific report which
fairly shook the ground and seemed to come
from Paciic-street Wharf.
In few moments large crowd gathered
on the spot where the explosion had taken
place, but the only person in sight was the
Chinese cook of the Larsen, and he was
nearly scared out of his wits. In fact, he
was too much frightened to answer any of
the numerous questions showered at him
from all sides, and it was not until several
minutes had passed and he had time to re-
alize that he was still in the land of the
living that he could give an account of
what had taken place. The cook was the
only one on board the vessel at the time,
the rest of the crew having gone ashore to
spend Sunday. lie had finished his work
in the galley and gone TO his room for his
pipe, but before he had time to get on deck
again a terrific explosion, that made the
schooner culver from stem to stern, took
place. The cook rushed on deck, but could
see no one on the wharf. a faint cloud OF
smoke, with a strong smell of powder,
showed where the bomb mad been placed.
1t was nearly high water at the time. and
the vessels rail was considerably higher
than the wharf. From the fact that the
Waterman saw no one on the wharf for
some time previous to the explosion, the
bomb was probably placed ON the stringer
from boat under the wharf, as man
could reach the strngcr from ii boat, but
could hardly reach the vessels rail.
Pieces of fuse lying on the stringer
showed the manner of firing, but no trace of
the bomb could be found.
The explosion tore large hole in the
stringer and filled the scho0ner's deck with
spinters, but beyond a few marks on the
vessels side, where the flying Splinters had
struck, she escaped injury.
The Annie Larsen is lying at the head Of
the dock, and astern of her lies the big
collier San Pedro. The schooner is q recent
arrival from Caleta Buena and is laden
with nitrate. consigned to j. w. Grace &
Co.
The attempt to destroy the vessel caused
great excitement along the front, aud up to
late hour knots of men were standing near,
discussing tho affair.
What the object could be. or what was to
be gained by destroying the vessel, is known
only to those who failed in the attempt.
