James GreeInan's eloquent
Cribute II Pope Eco KIT.

James Creeman the wel-known war correspon-
dent addressed very large audience in Boston
lately in aid of the building found of the Church of
the Sacred Heart. Mr.. Creelman once interviewed
the pope The subject of his address was "The
White Shepherd of Christendom." Mr.. Creelman,
who is protestant, sald
81 pay my tribute of honor and reverence to Leo
XIII, because he is the only man l have found in
the whole world who has risen as a friend of the
human race above all ties of nationality and kim
dred.
'"Think of man wasted by age and so frail that
the light seems to shine through his flesh one who
has never known the joys Of married life or heard
the laughter Of his own children man shut up in
one house for nearly quarter of century, doomed
never to walk in the streets of the city that sur
rounds him. where for thousand years his prede-
cessors have regned, weighed down by the religious
affairs of the whole world, civilized and unclvlzed,
and remember that, in the service of the church he
has so conquered his heart that he could remain in
the vatcan-held there by his sense of duty-while
his own brother lay dying in Rome, not more than
two miles away.
'Think of the spirit of predatory greed that the
spirit of human invention has brought into the
world-the individual, the national, the mterna-
tonal struggle for commercial supremacy, fierce,
pitess, unceasng Think of the headlong damna-
ton of the age of money and conquest, inftdelity

one man, an old, old man; a man who swoons under
the burdens OF the awful task laid upon him by his
majestic office; man whose voice is heard in all
lands, calling men back to Christianity the only
means of moral and social mption-seeking day
after day and year after year. in his old age to bring
spiritual influence to bear in this practically pagan
age.

it's self discipline, filled with love and pity
for mankind that it addressed tender appeal to the

BUT THE CONSUMER WON'T BE IN IT.

BUT THE CONSUMER WON'T BE IN 1T.
The announcement that the war revenue tax will
be discontinued on July 1st with the exception of
longer to enable those with large stocks to close
them out will bring gladness to the people who are
in immediate contact with the tax The great mass
OF the people, who really pay the tax in the end,
will never know the difference. Bankers, brokers,
grain dealers, pawnbrokers, custom-house brokers,
theaters, museums, circuses billiard rooms, play
ing card manufacturers and dealers in liquor and
tobacco will no longer pay the special tax imposed
upon them July 1st, $685.
The people who patronze the above mentioned
institutions and consume the taxed articles have
paid the tax unconsciously, except in the case Of
the tax on express companies, which could not be
concealed, and they have never complained They
accepted without murmuring slight raise in price
or a slight depreciation in quality Few of them
noticed the difference. The people who have been
paying the tax over to the government can con-
tinue business the as they have under the tax
and annex most of the revenue of SIT 100000 year
to themselves. From this experience we derive
further proof that this is country of splendid
sources, and that the people possess plenty of
wealth. AS long the levy of special taxation
does not reach extravagant bounds; as long the
country needs the money for purposes which have
general approval, the people submit willing y. 1t
is those who directly taxed and who able to
compensate themselves out of their business who do
all the complaining.

A NEW WAY TO PLAY ROULETTE

A NEW WAY TO PLAY ROULETTE
A deft fingered man from Indian
apolis and the proprietor of a roul-
cite wheel nearly caused tragedy in
a gambling house at French Lick
Springs, Ind, recently. 1t is said
the Indianapolis man came to the
springs to beat the game, and it is
supposed that he tinkered with the
wheel. He is said to have substitute
ed lead for steel in the wheel and re-
adjusted the gear so that the ball
would fall in certain of the SO num-
bers. In this way money wagered
on black was certain to win, while
money on the red was as certain to
lose. The indianapolis man had a
wonderful run in his winnings. He
placed large sums on the black and
to avoid suspicion occasionally drop
ped small amount on the losing
color. Proprietor Turner does not
believe in luck, and the good for
tune of the indianapolis man caused
him to look over the wheel. Then
he drew his pistol. No fatalities.
The indianapolis man isn't playing
there now.

New Use for Limburger.

A letter carrier in an Ohio post
office was engaged to q young lady
whose aspirations ran in the direc-
tion Of a government office. The
letter carrier had an aged mother to
support and it was his intention to
save sufficient,sum of money to en-
able him to marry and to keep those
del endent upon him in comfort as
we'll. Yielding TO the persuasi0ns
of his lady love he went to tie post
master and recommended the young
lady for clerkship. In due course
of time the girl passed the civil ser
vice examination and was appointed
to place at the general delivery
window. She wasn't in the place
long before she conceived an exag-
gerated idea of her own Importance,
aud when the carrier through whose
| instrumentality she had been ap-
pointed came to the window for a
chat he was coldly received. Things
went from bad to worse, and after a
month or so she gave the mitten to
the carrier. He took his dismissal
with very bad grace, and vowed to
get even.
A month elapsed. One day the
girl appeared in the office of the
| postmaster.
81 can't work in that Office" she
said tearfully Its dreadful. There
is such a terriftic-er-smell some
where"
The postmaster, impressed by the
manner of the fair clerk, accompan-
led her to the box in the general de-
livery office.
"W-h-e-w!" he said, with a long
drawn breath. "How long has this
been around here"
cts been getting worse for the
last week." responded the clerk.
II didn't want to say anything about
it at first, but I'll have to go home if
it isn't taken away"
Something must be dead under
the floor" said the postmaster, after
due declaration, and he ordered the
boards removed and the space be-
meath searched. 1t was done and
nothing found.
Then the chief decided that an army
of rats must have fought a decisive
action behind the partition walls
and he ordered the carpenters to re-
move the wainscoting and hunt for
| the victims. But the search reveal
ed no signs of fray among the
rodents, and all the time the smell
grew worse. In despair the post
master sent for a plumber, who pro-
bounced the sanitary condition of
the pipes and drains to be excellent.

To prevent their frail daughter
