Federation of Catholic Societies Holds
important Meeting.
Detroit, Aug. 5.-The American
Federation OF Catholic Societies dur
ing the day held the most important
business meeting of their three days
convention. A set of resolutions was
adopted and officers were elected, in
addition to number of changes being
made in the constitution of the fedora
tion. The most important of these
changes is one permitting Catholic
parishes and institutions to become
members of the federation as well as
Catholic societies.
The resolutions open with a renewal
OF the federation's declaration of al
legiance to the pope; express salts
faction with the progress made in the
past year by Catholic societies in Ger
many toward the removal of restric-
tions Onerous to Catholics; express
Indignation at the tyranny" of the
French government in it's recent sup
preston of religious orders in France
and in impeding free and immediate
communication between the pope and
the French bishops and falsely accus-
ing him of breaking the concordat.' .
On the school question the resolutions
say:
1--WE propose this solution of the
educational problem SO far as we are
concerned: Let no public moneys be
paid out for religious instruction in
any schools; let the educational per
capita tax be disbursed for results in
purely secular studies only in our
Catholic schools, our teachers receiv-
ing their salaries as other teachers re-
ceive theirs; to ascertain the results
let our schools be submitted to state
or city examinations. Thus will the

NUMBER OF SMALL TOWNS CUT OFF

Kalispell, Mont, Aug. 5.-Fourteen
distinct forest fires are raging la this
vicinity and property valued at thou
sands Of dollars is being eaten up by
the flames, which have spread to sew
eral small towns along the Great
Northern railroad.
White Fish and Columbia Falls,
two villages west of hcie, are entirely
cut off from telephone communication
and the wagon road to White Fish has
been made impossible by the flames
which are raging on both sides of it.
Another large fire is raging near
Dayton creek, heavily timbered sec
ton, and the pine forests of that sec
ton will be almost destroyed.
The whole country is covered with a
dense smoke, which makes sunlight
almost a novelty. In some places along
the road the smoke has totally OBJ
scured the suns rays for several weeks
past.
Forest Supervisor Maimes and a
large force Of men are fighting the
flames as best they can, but owing to
the extent of the burning district they
can do little until helped by a good
downpour of rain or the force is in
creased.
The entire side of a large mountain
west Of here is one mass of flames.

resumed during the afternoon. For
the first time since the last joint con-
ference ended abruptly by the pack
ers' refusal to accept the ultimatum of
the allied trades representatives of
the employers and the butcher work
men were in consultation The ut
most secrecy was maintained by both
sides as to the conference.
Chicago, Aug. 5.-According to the
leaders of the packinghouse strike
certain powerful influences have been
brought to bear on the packers and
peace negotiations will probably be
renewed between the strikers and
their former employers.
The announcement was made by
Labor and ]. j. Keppler, business
agent of the Machinists' union
Neither Mr.. Schardt nor Mr.. Keppler
would reveal the identity of the peace
makers, but said that the men who
are about to intercede were not identi-
fed with any of the other peace eff
forts.
Mr. Keppler said that President
Donnelly would return to the city at
once and that the matter would be
laid before him.
Il believe the parties who are try
ing to bring about another conference

men will meet them more than half

immigrants as Strike Breakers.
The packers during the day intro
duced a distinct novelty in strike
breal1ing-a trainload of immigrants
said to be direct from Ellis island.
The immigrants were unloaded at OBJ
scure points about the yards and were
smuggled in groups of ten or twelve to
the various departments, where the
newcomers were put to work. This
took place while representatives of
the packers were reiterating the dec
laration that scores of applicants for
work are being turned away because
only skilled men are being offered en-
ployment.
There was no mistaking the immi-
grants who compose the latest acquisi-
tion to the packers force besieged in
the stock yards. The recruits were
loaded down with boxes, bags and

On most Of the luggage the passed
tag of the customshouse Office still
adhered.
Numbers of strike breakers en-
ployed in the packing plants are re-
ported as deserting in punches of fifty
or more when paid off. 1t is claimed
by the union leaders that fully so per
cent of the strike breakers are men
who, having been idle for time, SIM
ply wanted chance to make little
ready money, and, having accom-
plished the purpose, are quitting at
the first opportunity.

WHEAT ADVANCES THREE CENTS.
Afarmist Reports From the Northwest
the Cause


Chicago, Aug. 5.-Amid much ex-
citement on the board Of trade wheat
for September delivery made a clear
gain of 3 cents over the opening fig
ure, selling UP to 96k. The sharp
uptlrn resulted from active covering
by shorts, who had become alarmed
at extremely pessimistic advices re-
garding the condition of new wheat
in the Dakotas and Minnesota. Ac-
cording to reports the area affected
by rust will. be much larger than at
first supposed and the total yield of
wheat in those states will be greatly
reduced.
Other grains were affected by the
strength Of wheat. but the advances
were not so pronounced.
New York, Aug. 5.-A stampede Of
shorts at midday carried wheat in the
New York market we'll above the dol
lar mark, 1t was the elimination of a
long bull campaign, based on European
shortage and damage to domestic
crops. Some of the Northwest news,
which really started the bear panic,
denoted widespread damage from rust.
Bulls now predict $1.25 before the sea-
son ends, anticipating a big European
demand.

At the close OF holly contested game
the official roster read IL to in favor
of the visitors. The game was fast
throughout. Hard hitting coupled
with snappy fielding conspired to
make the game I: live one. Errors by
the locals at critical stages, together
with timely hitting by the visitors
caused the locals to lose the game.
Preston's pitching, the batting of Nc

dubon were features of the game.
This victory may have tendency to
rekindle the love of the great Ameri-
can game in our midst.

Death OF Mrs. Ewing.

Mrs. John Ewing died very suddenly
at her home in this city Saturday.
She had been sick recently, but had
so far recovered as to be about the
house. She was engaged in her house
hold duties Saturday when she threw
up her hands and fell over. Her
daughter, Mrs. Conklin, who had been
with her the past few weeks, hurried
to her, but found her dead. Heart
failure was the cause.
Sioux Ann Butler was born in
Pennsylvania April s, ls4l, and was
63 years old at the time of her death.
When young girl she came with her
parents to Linn county, this state.
There she grew to womanhood and
there she married John Ewing who
proceed her in death nearly four years
ago. Two children were born to them
one OF whom died when a child. The
other, Mrs. Eta Conklin, was here at
her mothers death. Mrs. Ewing took
her sisters child, Ora Ewing Fisher,
when the latter was an infant, and
was in every sense of the word a
mother to her. Deceased leaves a
brother, Thomas j. Butler, of Bed
ford.
Mrs. Ewing was faithful and con-
sistent member OF the M. f. church
and did her full share in alternating
the sufferings OF others. The funeral
was Monday from the M. Il. church
and was conducted by her pastor,
Rev. A. A. Walburn, assisted by
Revs. Wendell and Bates. Burial
was In Arlington Heights.

Commencement Exercises.

The commencement exercises of the
class of 'O4 occurred last Friday night
in the Presbyterian church. The
main auditorium was we'll filled with
those interested in Audubon's educa-
tional system and with the friends of
the eight young men and women in
honor of whose graduation the exer-
cises were held.
DIR. Cessna, of the chair of history
at /. s. C. who made the address to
the class, was introduced by Prof.
Hooker. The Professor remarked
that last year they had the Governor
and this year they had intended to
induce Pres. Roosevelt to make the
address, but on account of the political
situation, the national convention
having just adjourned, that was inn
possible and DR.. Cessna had kindly
consented to fill the place. DR.. Cess
ma pleased the audience by his genial
manner and by his witty Introduction.
The principal part of his address was
a lecture on problems which confront
us at the beginning of the twentieth
century. He spoke of this as trans
ition period in the world history and
showed the shifting to new order of
things in religion, industry, social
relations and politics. Dwelling on
the impending changes in world poll
tics he discussed the different phases
of the eastern question and spoke of
the causes and probable effects of the
Russo-Japapese war. His address
was able and interesting to the student
of eastern affairs.
Excellent music was furnished by
the mandolin club, and Mrs. Smith
and Woods Soar sang solos which
were well received by the audience.
The graduating class is composed
of eight young people, four boys and
four girls. Though little smaller
than the classes for several years
preceding, it is said to make up its
lack in numerical value by an increas-
ed mental development, and, as Solo
men once remarked, wisdom is the
principal thing. Lewis Watson, presi-
dent of the class, will work at home
for some time, but expects to take
college course with special emphasis
on theology as soon as he is able.
Jason lines intends to work for year
and then take an engineering course
at Ames. Grace Cameron expects to
teach next year, and James Cameron
goes to work upon his fathers farm.
Cora Sampson and Myrtle Ross ex-
pect to take college work in the near
future. John Krick plans to leave
soon for Dakota where he will find
work. Ruby Currier may teach. In
whatever work the members of the class
decide to put their energy and talents
their alma mater will have no cause
to be ashamed of them. Two of the
class, John Krick and Jason lines,
finished the four years course in three
years. The teachers have only words
of praise for the work of the class.
We shy an old shoe after them and
wish them good luck.

up little. They feared awhile that
