gan at Turner opera house on Mon
day evening. Bishop Messmer CT
Green Bay delivered in an able man
ner an address On 1.-The Duties of the
Catholic American Citizen" Mayor
John j. Brusenbach introduced the
speaker.
1.-The duty of the Catholic American
citizen was to be loyal to the the
church of God and loyal and true 10
his country. We are born as citizens
of the state to do what we can for 1t
and those who do not are not worthy
of the name. This law was laid down
by Pope Leo III. Every catholic citi-
zen is bound by it to his God and hu-
man society to bring to bear his relig-
ious faith upon our conduct. You
should exercise your duties to the state
as your religious convictions place
them before you. Two great factors
are public morality and public order,
as it concerns the whole people. True
morality is the stability of the nation
and state"

Empire State Express In Football.

Empire State Express In Football.
The New York Central's Empire
State Express is recognized as the
swiftest and surest train operated by
Americas greatest railroad, and con-
sidered the very best means to cover
the ground in the time required. It is
for this reason that the Harvest Uni
versity football team named their best
and surest play of the season of 1902
the Empire State Express, for they
believed it to be the most reliable play
in their programme. 1t was successful
throughout the season until it met
Yale's "20th Century Limited" play,
which was just as swift, safe and sure,
but had longer endurance and was
s'limited" only by the size OF the field.
The names of the rival teams very cor
rectly described the difference in the
famous trains, the empire State
running only from New York to Buf-
falo. while the "20th Century Limited
makes $50 miles between New York
and Chicago in twenty hours every
day of the year. Great is the
New York Central and great are the
trains it operates-swift, safe and reli-
able From the Brooklyn Standard
Union.
