STOLEN CANDLESTICkS.
An Ex-Priest, a Slave to the
Morphine Habit, Guilty.


From the Cluctnu all enquirer.
Tx Priest Henry Koehler was
yesterday placed behind the bars for.
stealing candlestlcks from the
different churches Of the city.
81 ask no sympathy" be said.
II am simply slave, and have at
last fallen to the lowest, against
which, God knows have struggled
with my whole faculties, but they
have been benumbed and played me
false. l have stolen. l know not
WY nor where, and yet, when l
look back along the pages of my
life's history, l cannot help seeing
the fatal turning point, and while l
do not blame, yet my life should be
an example.
81 came from Germany young
and full of promise. | studied for
the priesthood, passing my classes
with high honor, and was finally
ordained as priest by Bishop
Wood in Philadelphia thirty years
ago. | was at first given position
az teacher in the Brothers school,
and my life was full of promise.
Gone day while going down the
library stairs fell and broke my
arm. The doctor gave me morphine
while he set it. The drug seemed
to fascinate me and | had an uncon.
trollable desire to try it again, even
going to the extreme that l was
willing to have my arm broken once
more. 1 did use the drug again,
and soon, before l knew it, its bane.
full influence had crept about me
like a serpent and had me like a
slave.
81 married, and then according
to the rules of the CHURCH l could
no longer officiate as priest and was
cast off.
~ went to Scranton, Pa, and
started a school, earnestly trying to
become myself and be man. 1
now have five boys, all grown up,
and the majority, thank God, have
good positions. l came here first
seven or eight years ago. For some
time was in the Presbyterian hos
pital, but l got drunk there and
they could not keep me, so 1 was
again turned adrift. Then Rev.
Mr.. Robertson placed me at the
Bethel, where l have been staying
for few months.
81 know l have stolen the can
dlesticks. l have been possessed
with all unaccou2table desire to be
| in Catholic lurches, and have
wandered about them. l know not
why. l have always worn this las,
reminder of the PRIESTHOOD" and
Mr.. Koehler pointed to his black
vest and white collar.
"What do you want with thu
candlesticks? was asked.
81 don't know, l just felt al
though / couldn't keep from steal
J ing them. Oh, how wish l coule
tell where l got them; but my mine
is cloudtd. am not a man. Some
thing is drawing ma downward tt
an awful abyss. Treat me as l de
. serve, but with justice, for l know
. not where | stole them. l an
nothjno Init a NOR slave"

agencies. There is only one way
for any advertising agency to make
money and retain its standing, and
that is to make money for the GUS
toners it handles. If al adyertis-
er is not successful, it is only a
question Of time when he will cease
advertising or go to some other
agency. When any advertiser is
continually changing from one
agency to anotherit is pretty good
evidence that he is not making
money. This may be his own fault
for persisting i'll advertising when
it is not in the nature Of things that
his good will Justify being advertis-
cd; in which case, it is manifestly
the duty of the agent to plainly i'll
form him so Advertising should
not cannot, be trihed with; neither
should advertisers.

FASHION DRIFT,

Sumac.red is rich purplish red
that is lightning to show, being
imported both in mems over
coats and girls gowns. 1t is not
vivid color, but a very warm
and itch tint.
Towels, sheets and pillow cases
are now frequently given for wed.
ding presents. They are hem,
stitched, marked with the initial
or monogram, and laid in q box
with a pretty linen sachet filled
with lavender.
1t seems almost incredible that
cOlOTed wOOlens can be woven in.
to such airy and smooth faced
fabrics. They look as thin as or
candle lawns. These are made
up into morning dresses and
breakfast Jackets for the first mild
spring weather.
A violet girl was seen at a ball
the other evening. Her white
silk gown had sleeves of violet
velvet, with the upper part of the
cOrsage composed entirely of vel
vet viOlets so cunningly scented
with veritable violet OdOr that the
Illusion was very effective.
Flannel wrappers are Ofthe am.

with band OF wide gallOOn, or Of

A beautiful hair ornament is in
the form of a dandeliOn down with

LIGHT ALL AROUND.

The TRUTH that the only thing
that justifies or excuses advertising
is actual returns, the same is from
any other investment, is finding
daily confirmation. If advertisers
were positive regarding the thing
they wish to advertise as to its adj
vertising possibility before expend-
ing money, there would be far few
er advertisers in the world then
there are to-day. If agents would
conscientiously advise advertisers
not to spend money in many cases,
instead OF urging them or "work
ing them to spend as much as pos
slble, there would be fewer adver-
Using failures and less occasion for
the cry which is often raised against

sons. Such appliance dc es away,
particularly elderly and short per.
of course, with the ne cessity for
fOot.stoOls, and thus gives more
room.
Among the new dishes for
special use in porcelain are small
covered jars for jam, marmalade
or preserves. They come with
and without a small plate for a
standard, and are in shape much
lie biscuit jars, only smaller.
These jars are designed for the
lunch table, or for breakfast, when
sweets are used at that meal.
Covered dishes much like those
used for sardiQes are now sold
for honey.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

An appropriate cover for the
dining table when not in use is
made of denim, and oTnamented
with a border of fruits and leaves
in embroidery and plush applique
\ border of oak leaves would be
also effective.
High basket chairs are some,
times used in dining rooms in
place of those of wood. They
are certainly much easier to
occupy through a long dinner. a

rest the foot is another contribu.

writing iOE Sunday NeESpspeTS. "

"What are you doing for a liv.
ing these days2' inquired a news,
paper man of an acquaintance he
chanced,tO meet on the street.
"Oh, I'm writing for Sunday
newspapers just now," was the
Tejoinder.
Turning to a friend who was
with him, the questioner remark
ed, as they passed on:
"I'll bet that fellow has been
fred from the--Office."
"Why do | think So! That re-
ply of his explains it. Working
for Sunday newspapers is a
euphemism common among news
paper men. In New York, when
ever a reporter loses his position
he is said to be writing for Sun
day newspapers which means
that he is out OfwOrk and is hust-
ling for another engagement. The
Sunday newspapers are the prin.
cipal users of articles, and an un.
attached reporter may perhaps
try to exc out living by dispos.
ing of odd matter through this
medium. The chances are, how
ever, that he does not. If all
men encountered on Newspaper
Row, claiming to write specials
for Sunday papers, actually did
so, each paper would be so volu-
minOus that a hand cart would be
needed for the transportation of Il
single copy. But, as | said, the
phrase is merely euphemism
which cOnceals a painful truth.
1t is a custom borrowed from an
ti9ulty. For instance, when a
prominent Turkish gentleman in
Cured the Sultan's displeaSure,
and was sent across the bay at
Constantinople TO be bOwstrung,
he was said to have taken sail
op the Bosphorous.' Poor Eng,
fish noblemen, during the reign OF
the Merry Monarch, Charles II,
when compelled to fast for want
of cash or invitation to lunch,
were said to have din ed with the
Duke of Buckingham which
meant that they had been cooling
their heels in Westminster Abbey,
at the Dukes tomb, then a favor.
tie resort for money lenders. At
this day, when an English mem.
Der of Parliment is compelled to
resign, he is said to have accept.
ed the office of the Chiffon Hun
dreds.' No such Office exists
the member has been fred You
can therefore understand why no
reporter is ever discharged from
the staff of newspaper. He re
signs in order to devote more
time to "writing for Sunday news,

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE atmosphere
about the weather bureau has cleared off
very perosptibly since the recent investiRa-
tion and affairs are running along very
smoothly with very Mtsle probability of any
further changes being made in the near
future. Secretary Morton said to-day he
wished TO make the bureau popular. In
short, he will insist upon useful forecast
ing, so the farmer, miner, shipper and COM
mef cial man can derive from IL the greatest
possible good. In addition to cutting off .
number Of what lie calls useless scientists''
Secretary Morten proposes to save money
in the matter of telegraph tolls. He has
also decided to discontinue the river and
flood room work and at an early date will
place the river forecast in the charge OF
observers locAted on the principal rivers.
As resuls, Carl Barns, 4. II. Bgelow

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The advance
guard of the returning Bering sea eommis.
sion has arrived. in the persons of Major T..
w. Halford and ]. Stanley Brown. Major
Hslfotd will spend . few days in Washing
ton and then visit his homo in indianapolis.
II is probable he will bs assigned to duty
under Gen. Brooks. at the headquarters OF
the department OF the Platte. in Omaha.
Major Halford believes the arbitration will
be concluded in shorter time than the three
months allowed by the treaty under which
the proceedings are being conducted. The
impression in Paris is that the arbitration
will result in decision reeogn izing the
property rights of the United States In
seals to more or less limited degree. and
recommending some international agree
ment tor the protection of seal life.
