Deputy ConstabIes Dismissed

Constable Harry Johnston is revising his
list of deputies, and after today at least
two men who have been wearing the badge
of office will be relegated to private life.
One of these is Gerson, the man who caused
such commotion out at the corner of
Main and Sixteenth streets Sunday, week
ago, in trying to arrest man who got into
a row with his brother-in-law without a
warrant. In this case the police were
called on for assistance, but as the legal
requirement. had not been fulfilled, noth-
ing could be done. The other man who

Price few days ago. There is no doubt
but what Price had been drinking, but it is

Eorcible, in truth, are the words which
the great St. Paul uses in the epistle today.
Strongly indeed does he impress upon us
the absolute necessity of charity: that vir-
tue by which we love God above all things,
visible or invisible; that virtue by which
the soul is sublimated and rendered worthy
to commune with its Maker; that virtue,
in fine, by which we love God for his own
sake, and our neigllbor as ourselves for the
sake of God. Faith itself. says st. Angus

CHINESE LOTTERIES
A Crusade Against Them Inaugurated by Con-
stable Harry Johnston

A Crusade Against Them Inaugurated by Con-
stable Harry Johnston
For some time past the lottery games in
Chinatown have been running without any
interruption, and lately it has been whis
pered around that some of the constables
or their deputies were making good thing
out of it. As soon as these rumors
reached Constable Harry Johnston, he de-
termined to take the matter into court
and ascertain, if possible, who the guilty
parties were, if any one was getting Doodle
out of it. He accordingly commenced a
quiet crusade against the Chinese lottery
venders, with view to getting them into
court. where they could tell their stories
under oath. Queng Jung was caught "dead
to rights and a warrant was sworn to for
his arrest. He was taken in, but his
friends promptly put up 500 bail, and,
after having his case set good way ahead,
be was released from custody.
Johnston did not, however, stop with this
one offender. Complaints were sworn to
against dozen or more of the pig-tailed
gamesters, and Friday night was the time
set for pulling the game. In some myste-
rious manner, however. the Cinnamon
were warned, and when Johnston and his
men went after them every game. with two
exceptions, was closed as tight as wax.
The two found running were placed under
arrest, but nothing could be done in the
other cases. Johnston says that he pro-
poses to keep the complaints alive, and as
soon as the games start up he will pull
them. He says that he is determined to
find outfit any peace officers are protiting
by shutting their eyes to the fact that the
lottery games are running, and he wants
the whole matter thoroughly ventileted in
court, under oath, if this can be brought
about. He says that since the arrest of the
first Chinaman he has been approached to
see if the matter could not be squared
and the prosecution dropped. He wou Id
not say who the man was, but it was inti-
mated that he was a deputy constable.
There are lively times ahead il the war
on the lottery shops is continued.

sigh for perfect peace and perfect happi-
ness.
The speaker showed how all men in old
times craved to obtain this perfect peace
in riches, in pleasures, but in vain. 1t is
found alone in charity-the love of God.
He proved the deep obligation we are
under to exercise this holy virtue and he
presented sad picture of those who
close their hearts to its promptings. He
exhorted his hearers to cultivate charity, to
love God and their neighbors a1d ended
his discourse by quoting the eloquent re-
marks of St. Paul to the Romans: 'Who
shall separate us from the love OF God?
Shall tribulations or distress or famine or
nakedness or hunger, or persecution or the
sword. In all these things we overcome
because of him who hath loved us. For /
am sure that neither death, nor life, nor
angels. nor principalties. nor powers,
nor things present, nor things to come,
nor might, nor height nor depth, nor any
other creature shall he able to separate us
from charity-the love of God which is in
Christ, Jesus our Lord"

DR., q, r. MO,1n


The Theosophists had full house at Odd
Fellows hall last night. DR.. G. F. Mohn
gave a lecture on "The Sevenfold Consti.
tuition of Man." and said in part:
."All systems of philosophy divide man
into either three, five or seven principles.
Man is mainly composed of a two-fold
nature; his animal nature, represented by
the body, physical and astral; the life,
and desire principle. coupled with the in
tellect; and spiritual nature the human
soul, the spirit and it's vehicle through which
it manifests to the soul or real man.
Man is largely swayed By his lower ma
ture, the passions and emotions, his self
ishness and ignorance. On the path of
evolution mans battle in life lies between
his higher and his lower nature. 1t is tile
mission of the soul to raise mans animal
nature to it's own plane of spirituality, to
sublimate matter into spirit.
This is the acme and zenith of evolution
and when this is accomplished man shall
know all, because he has conquered all
and has become one with the father.

Prof. Bowman

At the church of the New Era yesterday
Prof. Bowman discussed the subject of
LibertyIts Nature and Laws. He said
the main object of the lecture was to show
how the American people have been de-
luded with the belief that they are free.
while in fact they are enslaved.
No word is moro upon our tongues than
Liberty, and yet no subject is more vaguely
and imperfectIy understood. Defined
nominally, it means condition of free
dom from restraint or control. Simple as
this seems, no subject is more complex
than human liberty when we come to ana.
lyze it in its relations to human environ.
ment and the laws of human action. No
word has been more abused, and no word
in the mouth of American citizens-es-
pecially of our denizen population-is used
to cover SO many errors, cr,idties and
wrongs.
"Iiberty' is the battle cry of every
party and faction, from the irrational an.
archist to the plutocratic despot. The ma
ton is well nigh wrecked through mistaken
views OF liberty. Two kinds of error about
liberty are working ruin. The first is an
error in theory, conceiving of liberty rs
something absolute, unlimited, unre gu
lated-eutirely absolved from law. Such

The foregoing statement may be ac-

one exception. The horses are owned

The stations when not in use arc
kept at the harss. But each year about
one hundred and fifty are sent to the

which are used as many more which

is merely nominal Without govern
ment inspection and license no private
owner is permitted to use his own
stations for public service.
A similar system OF state aid prevails
ia several other countries Belgium
maintains q government stud at Ter
vuren. The general policy of public
aid is followed by the governments OF
Germany, Austria, Russia and Italy,
and, 1 believe, also by Great Britain to
improve the breed in India where
horses rapidly deteriorate on account
of the adverse conditions of climate.
Recently the Russian and German
governments have contributed to the
same object with q liberal hand, and
the latter maintains extensive breed
ing farms to aid in supplying its army.
The oldest in Europe is the imperial
stud of Lippiza. Austria, which was
founded in 1880, and it is said that the
breed, which is mixture of Arab and
Andslusian blood, has been kept pure
ever since. Having been allowed for
generations to roam over the Karster
mountains unshod, their hoofs and
feet have become so hard that they
do not require shoeing even on the
streets of Vienna, to which 40 are sent
each year, to be used exclusively in the
imperial stables At present the Aus
trian government has nine American
bred stations in service, and the max
imum fee is only two dollars OF all
the great nations, ours is the only one
which, in this respect, depends wholly
on private enterprise.
