Grounds.
TWO PROPOSITIONS
Have Been Made to the City to
Sell Desirable Plots for the
Purpose. Now is the
Time to Procure the
Grounds.
TWO PROPOSITIONS

A few days two propositions
were made to our city council
proposing to sell land enough well
located upon which to make q
city park. The council wisely
appointed committee to inspect
both locations and report, which
has not been done yet but we are
informed will be made at the next
regular meeting of the council.
One of these sites is located on the
north and south banks of Lime
Creek and is known as the Dar-
nell. Hill & Cutter places; parts
of blocks a, 33, 81 and 35 and
all of blocks % and 20. Consist
ing of about 8 acres, with Penn
sylyanla Ave. running through
about the center north and south
which can be had for 100000 in
city scrip.
The other is located on South
Hill northeast of the cemetery,
contains about 10 acres "a block
and can be purchased for $780,
90 in the city scrip.
As will be seen of these propos-
ed Parks is one Lime Greek
where there many shade trees and
whereby daming the creek, build
ing bridges, planting other shrub
cry and cultivating a lawn, we
could have a park that we would
all be prond of in years to come.
The other as stated above, is
high and dry overlooking the city
and would be a magnificent place
for park.
We should have both, and then
we would be ahead of any other
town in the B. |. 7.

We bowled down over the Mis-
souri, Pacific on Sunday on mag

passengers. We skirt the old

was picking 'em so fast that the
day light at the other caught him
kissing an African lady of Amer

the capital. The Jesuit college at Or
drup has 100 boys. We believe that
the only burdens of which Danish
Catholics can complain as laid on them
by law are those of having to contrib
ute to the support of the state religion
and of the state schools.
The Catholics of Denmark devote con-
siderable attention to propagating the
faith by the help Of the press. Among
the works they have recently published
| is q Danish version of the New Tesla
ment and learned work on Darwin
ism by Jesuit Father.
When allowed without let or him
drance to practice and to spread their

dinayia may hope that the new spring
has begun in their beautiful lands.
Thrice daily from many Lutheran

The tradition is kept up Of ringing

May we not hope that the day is not
so far off when the sound of these bells
may be answered by the Angelus, re-
cited by the sons of those over whom
three sanity kings ruled, ST. Olave

The missions of. Scandinavia are far
apart, and communication between

Hence the need of so many priests
proportionately to the number of the

For more than fifty years have the

sequently Catholicity is more ad-
yanced there than further north.
Fifty years ago the Danish Catholics
numbered four hundred, they are now

the Catholics increase at treble that

BEvERIDGE ON THE PHILIPPINES.
Makes an Exposition of the Philippines Ques
tiOn Before Congress.

The speech delivered in the Senate
by Mr.. Beveridge of Indiana is the
clearest exposition of the Philippine
question that has yet been made. 1t
is a complete statement of the Amerl-
can position. Mr.. Beveridge's con-
clusiOns have not been reached by
q DriOri methods. He speaks from
personal knowledge. He Judges

they appear through the magnifying
glasses of the Anti-Imperialist League.

there are one thousand men in all the
archipelago capable of fself-government
in the Anglo-Saxon sense" but he
doubts if there are a hundred The
natives must be governed as children,
simply, strongly, and firmly. He
shows them as they are, utterly diff
ferent from the doctrinaire notion of
them.
Besides demonstrating the incapac-
ity of the FilipinOs to govern them
selves, Mr.. Beveridge set forth the
great resources and commercial i'm :
portance of the islands, and discussed
the constitutional power of governing
them as circumstances may demand, and
the form of government and methods
of administration required. Every
line of his speech was informing and
convincing.
When Mr.. Breveridge had finished
Mr.. Hoar began to dilate upon the
beauties of the Filipino of his imagi-
nation. The Indiana Senator had said
some very uncomfortable things. For
j example:
II have seen our mangled boys in
the hospital and field; | have stood on
the firing line and beheld our dead
soldiers, their faces turned to the pitt
less southern sky, and, in sorrow
rather than anger, L say to those whose
voices in America have cheered those
misguided natives on to shoot our sol
diers down, that the blood of those
dead and wounded boys of ours is on
their hands; and the flood of all the
years can never wash that stain away.

ber. Mr.. Hoar was seen to lool

than old Thrifty as it is more foolish to
work your own body under starvation
conditions, than your horses. But every
farmer has plenty to eat. Yes, but it
isn't what is eaten, it is what nourish-
ment is obtained from food that decides
the question of starvation. 1t wouldn't
do the farmer any good to run a stack of
wheat through a thrashing machine
which was so out of gear that it didn't
get the grain out of one head of wheat in
fifty. That's just the way with the dis
ordered stomach. 1t doesn't get the
good out of the food that is eaten.
