An address on socialism by the Rev.
w. S. Kress occupied the greater part
of the morning session of the current
missionary conference at the Catholic
University today
Father Kress is distinguished in Cath
olic circles for his efforts against the
growth of socialism, and his address was
based on his own personal observation
of the evils il is continually working. In
the course of the discussion on the pa

mission fathers at Brookland. said the

CUSTODY OF CHILD

HEARING IN CASE TODAY
Curious History of Defendants Sister
Recalled by LitigatiOn-Weddlng
That Didn't Come Of.

Hearing on the petition Of Herman
Bocorselski to recover possession Of his
six-year-old daughter Edna, now in the
custody and care of his wife, Barbara
BocorseIski. was resumed today before
Chief Justice Ciabaugh. The father OF
the child alleged in his petition that his
wife is not a proper person TO have the
care and custody Of it,
An interesting story is recalled by the
present litigation.
Annie b. Stopper, Mrs. BOcorselshi's
sister, about eighteen months or two
years ago. procured a marriage license
for herself and Arthur \. LithGow. The
Rev. Thomas Chalmers EastOn was call
ed upon to perform the marriage cere-
mony. When asked by the minister If
he were willing 10 marry Miss stopper
LitEgow unhesutating answered. Not
by "A - sight"
This settled the incident so far as the
Rev DR.. E2stOn was concerned
On Hand With Pistol.
Mrs. Bocorselski. it is said, at that
appeared on the scene with a
pistol in her hand and threatened to Kill
young Lithgow if ne persisted in de-
Ginning TO marry her sister. The mar
rage. however, did not take place. 1t
was afterward discovered that the pis-
tol which Mrs. Bocorselski held in her
hand was not loaded.
A few days after this occurrence Miss
Stopper attempted to end her life by
taking arsenic. She was removed to a
hospital and recovered. She, however,
declined 10 say why she had attempted
TO take her life.
Misc Stopper was witness at the in
VestigatiOn today and said her sister is
d proper person 10 have charge OF her
child.

The beautiful grounds of Belmont,

Some Uses of SklmmiIk.

That skimmilll Is useful feed for
all kinds of farm animals is an estab-
lished fact. 1t pays better, however,
to feed it to the young animals than
to old ones, though the latter use it
to fairly good advantage. The young
ones have stomachs so we'll adapted
to using skimmilll that they can get
more out of it with less expenditure
of digestive energy than any others,
good many experiments have
been made with it from time to time,
by the way of using it as food for
mature farm animals. Here and there
are men that have fed it to their
mich cows, and in the absence of
other animals to consume it this is a
good use to make of it. The value in
such case depends on the market
price that can be obtained for it. In
the case of using it for COW feed it
will be found necessary to keep it
sweet till so used.
Colts and even mature horses have
been fed on skimmilk. One man
claims that his horses came to like
milk and that less grain was con-
sumed after the milk began to be fed.
We can easily believe this. The milk
contains a good amount of protein
and this of course goes to build up
the muscles and make protein from
grain less necessary.
On ell of our farms the use of skim
milk for chicken feeding is now recog.
nized, and little urging is necessary
TO induce the careful poultry raiser
to feed the fowls all the milk they
will consume. When they cannot
use enough Of it on account Of its
watery nature, it is very easy to make
cottage cheese for them out of the
milk.
