FOOD PROTECTION.
The Circuit Court of the United States Decides in Favor of the
 In-er-seal Packape

In-er-seal Package.
 A decision far reaching in its effect and of interest to all lovers of pure food, has just been handed down by Judge Adams in the Circuit Court of the United States.
 The suit in question was brought against The Union Biscuit Company for infringe ment on the In-er-seal package, controll- ed exclusively by The National Biscuit Company, for the protection of biscuit and crackers against dust, moisture. odor and germs.
 In deciding against The Union Biscuit Company Judge Adams says:
 The proof abundantly shows that prior to the invention of the patent, the old paper cartons or boxes, were inadequate to the demands of the service required of them; that their contents deteriorated rapidly in substance and flavor; that they were subjected to the baneful effects of the air, moisture and dust Since the introduction of the box of the patent a radical change has taken place. This box has been found equal to the climatic and other local conditions in all parts of the country, from New Orleans to New York, from Florida to Minnesota. and from California to Massachusetts. The uniform testimony from all these re- gions Is to the effect that the contents of the box are preserved in their origi- nal freshness and flavor.
 "The whole testimony in my opinion clearly shows that the box of the patent materially facilitates the distribution of inexpensive food products to the consumer and at the same time lessens the cost and enhances the intrinsic value of such prod ucts"
 Judge Adams full decision against the infringement not only shows the great im- 4l,. T,.c l., so broad and conclusive as to prevent any further infringement or use in viola tion of the rights of he National Biscuit Company. adv.

FATHER BRANNAN's LECTURE
Catholic Priest Entertains Audience
 at Court House.

SatnoAlc frlest EnterCa1nS Audience
 at Court House.
 Wherefore, as by one man sin came into the world, and death by sin, so all men shall die, for all men have sim ned" said Father Grammar, the Catholic evangelist of Weatherford, Texas, at the court house last evening in a discourse In defense of the great church he repre- sents and the doctrine of that church regarding the universality of sin and the necessity of baptism for all, even to the helpless and seemingly unoffending in- fant, which he. qyoting the Bible. declar- ed was "shapen in sin and conceived in iniquity''
 Death said Father Brannan Ifs only the punishment decreed for sin. If chill dren are inherently innocent then why in the name of the living God should they die? It was by sin they came into the world; they are sinners begotten of sin ners, and baptism is essential to remove the spiritual stigma from their souls"
 Father Brannan is a most earnest and convincing speaker. He holds an audi ence as by a spell from the moment he opens until he finishes, rlvets and clinches a powerful argument for the cause he champions He is exceedingly dramatic, and makes abundant use of all the tricks of speech and all the arts of the actor sometimes seemingly in a hippant sense, in a manner of mockery and scorn as he unmercifully fays an alleged traducer- but always to convince. to drive home what he regards as an essential truth. His spech fairly bristles with sarcastic and ironlcal allusions to the doctrines held by others. and those of his hearers who were inclined to doubt the sound- ness of the ground on which he stood were at least entertained
 Baptism and the confession were the subjects upon which Father Grammar dwelt. and at every step he took in round- ing out and completing his argument he fortified himself with quotations from the Scriptures. The Bible was his basis.
 Father Brannan's career has been a notable one Born in Georgia, he served four years in the Confederate army with Lee. and at the close of the Civil War he practiced law tor fifteen years in the South. He left the bar to enter the Catholic priesthood. As a public speaker and defender of the church he represents he is known in most of the Southern States. and wherever he appears he draws an audience.
 He Is delivering this week series o. addresses at the court house. to which all. non Catholics especially. are invited The lectures open at D. m.

ELLA WHEELER WILCOX
IN NEW ORLEANS

Ella Wheeler Wilcox, the poetess best known. perhaps, as author of Poems of Passion is spending this week in New Orleans.
 Mrs. Wilcox is the guest of Miss Helen PitRin who has issued invita- tions for reception on Wednesday, March 4, from to 6 o'clock, in honor of the celebrated poetess Mrs. de Cottes of The Adver- tiser left Sunday evening for New Or leans, and will receive with Miss Pitkin and Mrs. Wilcox on that ocasion.
 The Woman's Club has also issued in- vitat tions to a reception in honor of Mrs. Wilcox at the St. Charles Hotel, in the Palm Garden for Thursday evening. March 5, from S:30 to 10:30 o'clock. In fact, the New Orleans people, who, though accustomed to the presence of celebrities, and many of them every year, and more than hospitable in their enter tainment of all strangers, have evinced
 more than a usual degree of interest in
 this visit of the poetess.
 Miss Pitkin herself in the Sunday issue of The Tim ss- Demo 2, at. says of Mrs. Will
 cox and her visit:
 Owing to the too-early exploitation of
 Mrs. Ella Wheeler Wilcox's movements,
 that distinguished woman, poet metaphy-
 sician, philosopher, has been believed to be in the city during the past week,
 when, in truth, she left New York only last evening" and may be expected here not before tomorrow, Friends of Mrs. Wilcox have been kept busy answering questions in person and through the tele- phone, receiving letters for her and strengthening out matters pertaining to her itinerary. Mrs. Wilcox desires to rest upon her arrival, at least for several hours, so her admirers will understand 1 this and respect her few hours of seclu- sicn. She looks forward to meeting new 1 friends who have long known her through the medium of her books and newspaper ! articles, and is prepared to like New Or leans, where she anticipates blazing | skies" which she loves. The weather is | the only source of doubt regarding the welco me she will receive"
