lowed with patriotic address. Notable
among the remarks were these:
"Above all things the Constitution and
laws within It's spirit must be enforced. Ev-
cry citizen shall be protected In life, liberty
and property at whatever cost. Mob vio-
lence, which has It's home In the breasts OF

severely punished. Such action IL an open
declaration Of the want OF confidence in the

Gus injury TO the welfare Of the state. The

THE OLD ROMAN DEAD.
Hon. Allen @. Thurman Passes Away After
Long Illness.

The long and useful career Of Judge Allen
G. Thurman came to a close Thursday after
noon at 115 o'clock, at his residence, corner
Of Rich street and Washington avenue,
Columbus Ohio. The end was peaceful In
the extreme and without q sign Of physical
distress. For some hours before Judge
Thurman had been lying In an unconscious
condition. He passed merely from sleep
temporal to sleep eternal, and the change
was hardly noticeable even TO the loved ones
who surrounded his bedside.
In the midst Of the volumes Of knowledge
he prizes 80 dearly and amid the scenes
where he has spent so many pleasant hours
OF his happy old age, the vital spark took
wings. Judge Thurman died In his beloved
library Shortly after his fall several weeks
ago Judge Thurman's bed was moved from
the adjoining bedroom to his library, and he
remained there. Judge Thurman has lived
with his son, Allen W. Thurman, since the
death OF his wife several years ago, and being
unable to leave the house he occupied ap-
partments In the second story OF the resi-
dence, where he spent the last days Of his
life in remarkably pleasant and agreeable
manner.
Judge Thurman was born at Lynchburg
Va, November Is, 1918. During his life he
has served In congress, on the supreme bench
OF Ohio, and later as q United States senator
where he served two full terms from 1869 tc
| 1918. He was also candidate for vice-presi
dent with Grover Cleveland In 1884.

WORK OF A TARDY BLAST.
Four workmen Killed By An Explosion Of
Dynamite and Powder.

By premature explosion of powder and
dynamite Thursday afternoon, four men
were killed at La Toilette, Campbell county
Tenn. Four other men are missing and their
bodies are being searched for In the mass of
earth and rock that was dislodged by the ex-
plosion.
The names of the dead are Andrew Bales,
Neal Dabney, John Webb, and a Mr.. Price.
The explosion occurred In the works OF
the Le Toilette Railroad, near La Toilette,
where a new railroad is being projected from
La Toilette to Jellico. A large force OF men
were at work blasting for cut.
Three kegs of powder had been plnced In
16-foot hole and four sticks of>dynamite
were also added to the deadly charge. A
fuse was attached to the powder and the the
men ran from the place to safe distance to
await the result. They waited IA minutes
and the charge failed to go off, The men
were then ordered by the foreman to break
into the hole to readjust the fuse. They
obeyed the order, all being apparently salts
fed that the llfe had become extinct.
just as they re-entered the hole the explo-
sion occurred, and the earth and stone for
many yards around were dislodged and
thrown into a conglomerated mass with the
remains of the unfortunate victims.

enemies OF England are secured. Each ap-
plicant must be OF the Catholic faitn. Each
member Is sworn to uphold the Irish cause.
Money for the support Of the military IL fur
