NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-Dr. Parkhurst
today preached sermon which was
plea for fallen women. Parkhurst said
society has way of calling sins for
which no warrant can be found In the
scriptures. There seems to be-" he
said, tone character of crime that ii
ono sex practices 1t, it is all right;
while If the other practices 1t ostra-
clsm Invariably follows. Men can do
as they choose on this score for women
for whom they have no respect, but
with women il Is different. Society
saws there are several unIardonable
sins. They say it is n crime for
woman to iransgrass the seventh com
maudment, but it Is not SO for men.
One of the great troubles when a
woman wishes to lead different life is
she does not receive the help of her
sisters. There are great many Mag
dalenes in New York. Probably thou
sands of them Will go to heaven. They
are children OF God, just rs good in his
sight as you are, and you should do all
YOU can to help them. Some of you
gather your skirts about you to ESCAPE
from yonr fallen sisters, while they are
lust as precious to God as you are"

mated for senator from Owyhee and
Cassla counties by members of the

candidate. The court holds that the
names OF men nominated by petition

Phillips Will not appear on tue populist

nominee for judge of the second dis.
trict, aud iuthe case of ID. Nelson,
democratic nominee for JOINT senator
of Kootenai aud Latah.

turnable. a mum Der of points were

Enemies of tho Public schools.
DENVER, Colo, Oct. 2l.-Father Ma
me, editor of the Colorado Catholic,
lectured today at Tabor Grand opera
house. A largo audience was In atten.
dance. Before commencing his lee
ture Father Malone received the fol-
lowing note from someone in the audi
enoe "Dare you, as Catholic priest,
publicly In your lecture cay the Roman
Catholics do not owe fealty to a foreign
potentate? Also, dare you say the
Catholic church Is not opposed 10 pub
lie schools" In reply Father Malone
said: --..-
"Let lis see now what foundation
there Is for this charge that we are dis
loyal to the civil institutions of the
country. The charge that we are enc
mics TO the public school system Is
delusion and snare. The charge that
we owe supreme allegiance to foreign
potenlate is equally false. These
charges serve an unholy purpose and
give to the fanatic an imaginary justi-
fication for violating the constitution
in regard to portion Of the citzens.
ITO those who make the charge this

but we hold. Notwithstanding per-
sistent opinions of isolated individuals,
that the public school system must
and shall he maintained. Not alone
that, but should tho day ever come
when the school system Of America
would be attacked, the Catholics Will be
the first to the rescue. To the charge
so current nowadays that we owe al
legiance to foreign power this is my
answer: In spiritual matters and
matters of faith and morals, we give
allegiance to our church, but in
civil affairs we neither owe nor do we
give Allegiance 10 anything outside the
constitution of the United States, nor
to any one not duly elected officer Of
this government. Should a con itlon
arise-which is an absurd assumption
when the pope OF Rome should Issue
an edict in conflict with the constltu-
ton of The United States, we would re-
fuse to obey the pope and we would
uphold the constitution, In the words
of Conneil. we take our religion from
Rome, but our politics from ourselves. "

SALT LAKE, Utah, Oct. 21.-The
Jury in the Thiede murder case, which
has been on trial for 10 days, this morn
Ing returned verdict of murder in the
first degree, without recommendation.
The penalty Is shooting or hang
ing, as the murderer prefers. The
crime OF which Thiede is con-
vicled was one of the most
atrocious ever committed in Utah. On
the night of the 18th Of April his wife
knocked at the door of his saloon,
when he seized bread knife, ran out
and cut her throat from ear to ear. The
evidence was purely circumstantlal
and he stoutly protests his Innocence,
his claim being that his wife was MUIR
dered by q member of the industrial
army which was encim0ed near by.
