Policeman McCabe, on duty on Austin
street, arrested a Mexican named Lopez,
about daylight this morning, as a suspic-
iouS character. He noticed the fellow
coming down Austin street with a fine
turkey gobbler and hen slung over his
shoulder. Thinking from the mans ac-

the nights plumber on his shoulder, Nc
Cabe arrested him and marched him to
the Sunset Fire company's hall, where
the officer sat him in chair, while he
telephoned for the patrol wagon. AS the
officer was at the telephone the Mexican
bolted, leaving his turkeys. The officer
chased him down Grand avenue to River
avenue and out toward the City Brewery,
firing two shots at him The Mexican
plunged into the river and escaped. When
the patrol wagon arrived at the Sunset
Fire hall, all there was to carry to the
police station was the two turkeys. They
were put in the centre of the pit under
the tower at the City hall and gave the
"gObbIe duet" from opera Mascot" very
nicely during the session of Recorders

JOY Killed Her


New York Press.
1t is a proverb that good news
never killed anybody. There is a
case in Harlem that must be
classed as an exception to the
rule. Sixteen-year-old Lena SUIT
ter, who was buried in the Luther
an cemetery, literally died Of
happiness. Good news killed her.
She had been a cash girl in a
large Harlem dry goods store and
had risen to the position of sales
woman, when the hard times
came. She received Sc per week.
On Saturday last when she
was handed the envelope contain
ing her weeks salary she was told
that she had been promoted-that
she was on the pay roll at $3.50 in
stead of So per week.

Edward AcGlynns in an interview here,
insists chat he has not retracted one word
of his opinions on parochial schools,
which led to the ecclesiastical censure
being placed on him.
Now lie goes his old ideas one better
and declares that it is not the province
Of priests. monks and other ecclesiastics
to teach anything but religion. The pub
lie schools, when properly conducted,
were all that could be desired
Parochial schools were improper for
the reason that the children who attended
them were isolated in all manners. Reli-
gion should be taught only IN church
and Sunday school and at the mothers
