specialist. 1.-THE familiar saying, Bet.
ter out of life than out of fashion, is
in some sort freely acted upon. Life is
knowingly risked at the bidding OF
the modern goddess whose despotic
sway no god of antiquity ever equal.

evils Is tight lacing which has become
very prevalent among American wo-
men. Nature has packed the space in.

Midnight Tears.
BY Valentine.

10 the silent hours of darkness
When the tears like rain drops fali,
What comfort It's to whisper
God my Father knows 1t all.
Tears they are, and yet blessing
Thus to give the soul relief,
When the heart seems almost bursting
With the pressure Of its grief.
Are the tears for weak backslidings
Known TO only God and thee?
Jesus knows our every weakness,
Try again more earnestly.
Are the tears for disappointment,
Have thy hopes been long deferred?
Even this may prove blessing,
Turn for comfort to His word.
Ar6 the tears for sad bereavements,
Has thy soul been stricken sore!
Christ has promised In heaven meeting
With the loved ones gone before.
Does thy soul cry out in anguish
when will mine ahction cease
Christ has said my peace leave you'
Unto you give my peace"
Rest in him o stricken mourner.
he in all thy sorrows shares,
And himself at last will take thee
Where he says "There are no tears"

wards Christianity has come from Arch
Bishop Ireland. His speeches on the negro
problem have dispelled all racial prejudice
from St. Paul, and have made him the idol
of the Afro-American throughout the land.
The Archbishop demands such equality,
civil, political and social, for the colored
man as his intelligence and behavior war
rant. Even though Archbishop Ireland's ut
terances may offend the senSibilitieS of a
few Southerners, his speeches have given
the public an opportunity of honoring the
position of the Catholic Church on the vast
ly humanitarian question Of the equality OF
races. He reasons out his position with re-
gard to the negro from the platforms of the
Christian religion and of American citizen
ship. He himself grants all that he asks
from others. Let me quote his own words:
.For my part, 1 should deem myself un-
worthy of my American citizenship and un-
worthy of my Christian Inheritance did 1
consider a man in any manner inferior to
ne because of color, and were / not pre-
pared to extend to him. as 1 now do, despite
the clamorings of prejudice and Ignorance,

BUSINESS TRANSACTED IN THE
DISTRICT COURT YESTERDAY.
1t Is Feared Tint She Building in
Which the Court Room Is situ-
ated Is Unsafe.

Provo, March S1.-Judge Smith has
been busily engaged today with deei-
sions and motions and much minor
business was transacted.
In the case of James Mason VS.. A. E.
Linkiiter $71.S0, costs were retaXed to
plaintiff.
Jennie Steward was granted divorce
from her husband, Claude Steward, on
the grounds of failure to provide.
The demurrer to the complaint in the
case of Samuel Curtis VS.. the Rio

was overruled and defendant was
given ten days in which to answer.
In the matter of William Lewis VS..
J. R. Mooney ct al. certiorari proceed
ings from the Justices court Of Span

William H. Patten VS.. Thomas Top
han, demurrer to plaintiffs complaint
was sustained and plaintiff given five
| days to answer.
In the case of ]. C. McCord IS. Wal
| ter Moore, plaintiffs motion for judg-
ment on the pleadings was denied.
The case of the People VS.. J. j.
Booth was dismissed on motion of the
district attorney and ordered submit
ted to the next grand jury,
This morning when the court con-
vened, attention was called to the con-
dition of the building which from gen.
eral appearances seemed to be very
unsafe. Court has been held in the
| Reed-Smoot block since last summer
and the apartments were fixed up es-
pecially for court quarters One part
of the building joins onto the Eldridge
block on the north side and the latter
/ building forms the north wall of the
Smoot block. 1t begins now to look
as though the Smoot building was
! springing away from the Eldrid ge
block, with every indication of a crash.
1t is thought that this is due TO the
vast throng that daily crowded the
hallway, and the court room during
the Van Patten homicide case. Judge
Smith today thought it best not to
occupy the court room until the build
ing was inspected, so today he has held
forth in his chambers in the Eldridge
block. 1t is expected that an inspec-
tor will be down tomorrow from Salt
Lake. Mr.. Smoot thinks the building
is all safe and that there is no dan
ger.

After the assembled teachers had

Mr.. Walter. President Kingsbnry, of
the university was introduced and de-
livered an interesting lecture on
Water" The following is a synopsis
of the lecture:
Water is made up of two elementary
substances, hydrogen and oxygen, both
in ordinary state are gases. Oxygen
supports combustion, hydrogen is in
tensely inflammable. Both united form
water. Water is decomposed by cleo
tricity. also by heat which will cause
the elements to unite or recompose.
Oxygen is one of the constituents of
the air. AS a proof that il is a sup
porter of combustion, a lighted stick
was placed in a bottle containing oxy-
gen, and Immediately burst into a
flame A heated watch spring was
also placed in the bottle, and burned
