Hotel--Has Borne Good Reputation

The sensational hold-up which was
alleged to have occurred on Church
street late Saturday night has turned
out to have been a holdup at poker in
the Monroe hotel at Grinnell Friday
night, according to the confession OF
e. J.. Dawson, the victim, to Chief of
Police Nicholson this morning.
Dawson, who is a travelling salesman
and collector for the Sinclair Tea and
Coffee Company, had about completed
his weeks collections at Grinnell and
into the clutches of professional card
sharpers. For several years While in
the employ of the tea company and
prior to that when, for short time,
solicitor for the Times Republican, he
had borne an excellent reputation, but
the sharpers tempted him and he fell.
The story of the hold-up came to
the police late Saturday night, when
Dawson reported to them that he had
been held up and robbed of $3.50 while
on his way from the station. The po-
lice went to work on the case but this
morning Dawson weakened and owned
up that he had lost the money and in a
panic had invented the story of the
hold-up to tide him over until he could
pay back his employers money.
Today Dawson made complete set

tain his job because of his past good
character and record of honest dealing

Farewell Sermon to Glass Preached by

Farewell Sermon to Class Preached by
Bishop Lenihan Sunday Night.
Right Rev. M. G. Lenihan, D. D.,
bishop of Great Falls, Mont, de-
livered the baccalaureate address to
the class of 'o5 of st. Mary's institute
at st. Mary's church Sunday night pc
fore a large audience. Bishop LEM
hans address was Christian Educa-
ton" and was continuation of his
talk to the class at the commencement
exercises. Bishop Lehman took occas-
sion, during his address, to explain
the mission of the parochial school,
and to present the Catholic viewpoint
of the public schools. He said in part:
my dear young graduates of ST.
Mary's institute: ] wish again to con-
graduate you on the high honors you
received from your alma mater last
Thursday evening. 1t was, for you,
most memorable occasion of joy and
triumph, and a remembrance of 1T will
comfort and encourage you in all your
trials thru life. You have assembled
this evening for the last time as a
class, to hear a final admonition from
one who has been advising you all
thru your school years, and from one
who takes the deepest interest in your
future welfare.
"There is no topic that is so much
discussed at the present time as edu-
cation, and it is well, therefore, that
you have a correct understanding in
regard to this subject. Catholics are
accused Of being enemies to the pub
lie schools This is false accusa-
ton. Should / be. suspected of enmity
to the state public school because 1
object to some defects that ask to be
remedied, so that all children and all
the taxpayers be treated justly?
''The public school tends to elimin-
ate, religious principles from the hearts
and minds Of the children of the
country, and this is my grievance
Twelve millions of Catholics are taxed
to build and support schools to which
their conscience forbids access. Eng
land, Prussia and now Canada have
solved this difficult problem of educa-
ton, and I am sure in due time fair
minded American statesmen will set
tie this same preplexing question. I'm
til that time arrives the Catholics in
America will continue to educate over
1,uuV,oVU VI cll1ldIeH III paTOcnlal
schools, and at the same time pay for
supporting the public schools.
Il invoke the old spirit of American
fair play to remember the motto for
which they fought and died, no taxa
ton without representation"
In concluding Bishop Lehman APP
pealed to the members of the class to
study the lives and follow the good ex-
amples of good men and women, and
to remember to put in practice, thru
out their lives, their class motto, up
ward and Onward"
