NO JOBS FOR DRINKERS.
Social Ostracism Also One of the Pro-
posed Penalties.

Chicago, Aug. 10.-No employment for
those who drink added to social ostra-
cism in the strictest sense of the word
and a universal organization of total
abstainers, is the plan of the Catholic
Daughters of America as outlined by
Mrs. W. c. H. Keough, the organizer of
the movement, who was chosen as pres
ident at the inaugural meeting. The
meeting was held in the offices of the
newly elected president, 1873 La Sale
street, and the first steps were taken in
framing bylaws and a constitution.
Other officers who werez elected were
Miss Katherine Quigley vice president,
Mrs. J. c. Tolman and Miss Ellen
O'Mara secretaries, and Miss Alice
Hichey treasurer.
A board of directors was also chosen,
and a committee appointed to report to
the archbishop the progress made by
the association.
Object Briefly Outlined.
When the meeting was called to or
der, Mrs. Keough, in a brief address,
outlined the scope of the new move
ment In her address Mrs. Keough de-
be of national Importance. and that
within a very short period of time any
one not wearing the little blue button
with white cross would find it difficult
ito obtain employment.
1--WE are going farther than to mere

in their homes or touch the glass to
their lips" she declared. 1--WE are go
ing to make it hard for any one to
obtain employment in any capacity
whatsoever unless he wears our little
badge. We are going to start in the
big stores and tell the managers that
unless they ostracize those that drink,
Catholic girls cannot work in the store.
Already one of the biggest department
stores in the city has given me assur-
ance of support"
The next meeting of the association
will be held two weeks from last night
at the offices of the president of the
Y. M c. A. building, when the COM
1nittee which was appointed to wait
upon the archbishop will report and a
constitution will be adopted.
The association is to be self-support-
ing and no dues are to be asked from
it's members. Concerts and other So
cial entertainments are to be given to
raise funds for the support of the as

was talking to his son John at the barn
behind the Borman residence. Asked
where he had been and why he had left
he replied with perfect composure: 1--WE
had domestic difficulties and I thought
that the best thing for me to do would
be to go away. So just took my team
and drove to Fort Smith. There stay

me. He is foot loose The younger
Bennett volunteered nothing to his
fathers proposition.
You have been away a long while!'''
Yes, about 10 years"
You must be glad to see the people
again?''
He made no reply to this question but
looked away, his eyes filing with tears.
After that he would make no answer 10
any questions concerning his family.
When the matter of his fruit farm was
reverted to again he said that he had
made money. Fruit farming is the
only paying business there" was his
comment.
Mr.. Bennett is so years of age, of me

pounds His hair and beard are white
as snow. He was plainly and neatly
dressed and very polite.

THERE ARE OTHERS.
Chicago University Professor Says
Tainted Money Built Faneuil Hall.

Chicago, Aug. 10.-Tainted money has
received a final vindication from the
University of Chicago, and all because
it nourished the germs of American
freedom and sheltered the patriots who
thought out the Declaration of indie
pendence. It built Old Faneuil Hall OF
Boston town. according to PROFESSOR
lecture to the Midway students at chap
Ell exercises yesterday.
Peter Faneuil, who donated the Cradle
of Liberty to Boston, the professor said,
paid for it with polluted gold. made by
cheating the government out of its IL
Quor revenues. In other words, Peter
would be called a whisky smuggler
nowadays.
The explanation made by Professor
Peter Faneuil had been unmasked at
last after posing as the benefactor OF
his country for longer than century.
But, in accordance with the propr1et1es,
since so-called tainted money paid Tor
the reference books which gave the in
formation to the students through the
professor, no stigma was placed on the
old Bostonian's reputation, even in the
light OF the discovery.
Temperance to the Fore.
The temperance question involved
in the disclosure caused more pertur-
the mere fact that the money was
tainted They declared they were
not in sympathy with the agitation
against such money itself, but they
were sorry the country was built on
the bulwarks of a whisky smuggler's
fortune.
Historical investigations by the stu
dents who heard the defense of faint
ed money disclosed that even in the
wear 174O, when Peter FaneuiI turned
over the hall to the Boston populace
for market place, there was much
hesitancy about accepting it. A
striking similarity between this gift
and the donations of John D. Rookie
Teller to the university also was found.
Just as President Harper announces
the oil kings gifts at the convocation
exercises of the university, SO it is
chronicled in the record of Boston
that peter Faneuil hath been gen.
erously pleased to offer, at his own
cost and charge, to erect and bulk a
noble and complete structure or edi-
flee to be improved for market Tor
the sole use, benefit and advantage OF
the town, provided that the town of
purpose"
Gift Near Rejection.
The old record is quite different
from the university bulletins when it
states that the gift was nearly. rejected
as 1857 votes were cast in favor of ac-
cepting the gift and $50 against its ac-
ceptance." History only recorded that
the opposing party thought Boston
already had enough market places.
Furthermore, the building was
named for it's donor. just as John D:
Rockefeller specifies that the name of
the university shall always be followed
by the clause: Founded by John d.
Rockefeller
Professor Shepardson did not men
ton that the old Faneuil Hall was
burned in 1851 and that the revolu-
tionary meetings were held within the
walls of the new hall of the same
name which was built over the re-
mains of the original. 1t was explain
ed, however, that the later structure
was merely a resurrection of the one
which was built with Peter FaneuiPs
tainted money.

FIGHT FOR HIS NICKEL
Judge Curran VIII Take Santa Fe Suit
to Supreme Court.

Pekin, ILL.,, Aug. 1o.-Not because
Judge William r. Curran Of this city
needs the money. but because he is
thoroughly angry at the Santa Fe Rail-
road company and is determined to
spend considerable hard cash to protect
the public from what he deems high
handed methods, the judge will carry
to the supreme court, if need be- the
suit for cents the railroad company
has begun against him. Judge Curran
reported today his statement, made
when the company filed suit against
him several days ago for cents de-
murrage charges on a safe door. that
the company would never get the nickel
from him unless the case were decided
aginst him in the highest tribunal of
the state.
Puts Blame on Road.
II ordered a safe door from Chicago .
he said, land contrary to my expecta-
ton, it was sent c. o. D. 1 made re-
peated inquiries at the railroad office.
No bill of lading had been received by
me, and l waited several days. Finally
the bill of lading came and 1 immedi-
ately paid the draft which accompanied
it and took the bill to the Santa Fe
Office. The agents told me that 1 would
have to pay cents storage charges.
I have been demanding my goods
every day. I said, and you have re-
fused even to let me see them. Now
you WdIlJ me 10 pay you 1OI k0epIIiS
my goods away from me-
1.-THE agent replied that the rules of
the company made it impossible for
me to get the door without paying
the demurrage. 1 went to a justice
of the peace and replevined the door.
The railroad company has filed suit
| against me and the case will be tried
next week.
Prepares for Long Fight.
"The amount in issue is small, but
I mean to make test case of it and
I have engaged an attorney to repre-
sent me. He is prepared to carry the
case to the supreme court if neces-
sary.
ga great many people submit to
unjust charges made by railroads and
other public service corporations be-
cause it is easier to pay small
amount than to go to the expense OF
prolonged litigation. But [ propose
to see justice done in this case. II
would have a salutary effect on the
attitude of railroad officials if more
shippers would be willing to incon-
venience themselves enough to resist
such impositions.
eff a railroad company has the
right by an unreasonable or unjust
charge to take from the consignee q
small amount, then it follows that by
| the same rule it may confiscate his
goods

WARNER TALKS IN SLEEP.
Missouri Senator on Car Turns Down
Imaginary Omceseeker.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 1O.-'T tell you
there is no vacancy" said United
States Senator William Warner of Mis-
souri,, clad in his pajamas, in the small
hours of the morning, as he stood in
the aisle of a Pullman car, sound asleep.
and shook his finger at the conductor.
There is no vacancy" he repeated. Il
am sorry"
Just then the train lurched and threw
the senator against a berth. and he
woke up. He rubbed his eyes. looked
about him and said, What was say
ing? I beg your pardon, but I have
walked and talked in my sleep for
years."
The conductor told him what he had
said. 'I have always held that the ap-
phcants for Office haven't worried me, -
Major Warner said. but I think they
have begun to work on my brain, as
have taken to talking of them in my
sleep"
Major Warner was on his way home
from Washington.

Liquor House Blown Up by Dynamite
in Indiana.

Petersburg. Ind, Aug. 1O.-Opposition
to the sale of liquor in Pike county cul-
minated early in the dynamiting of the
wholesale liquor house of Curtis & Agee
at Hosmer.
For several months the people of the
surrounding community have been en-
gagged in a war of determination against
the saloons, but liquor has been sold in
spite of the efforts to suppress it.
Early this morning the villagers were
awakened by loud explosion and found
the wholesale house badly damaged by
a dynamite explosion.
The liquor was running from numer-
Gus barrels and kegs which had been
burst by the explosion. The building
was almost a complete wreck.
