YELLOW PRESS DENOUNCED.
Catholic Priest of Omaha Says It is
"UnquaIifedIy Bad"

Rev. Father Ryan devoted part of
his sermon at the o'clock mass at st.
Johns Collegiate church in Omaha re-
Gently to denouncing yellow Journal
ism. He pronounced yellow newspa-
pers, as the term is commonly UNDER
stood, as "unqualifedly bad" He de-
clared they should never be taken into
the home and that parents who per-
mitted their children to read them,
most particularly the Sunday issues,
were guilty OF fault little short of q
crime.
"a person does not need to go to the
yellow journals for any information
that is worth having" said Father Ry-
an. There are plenty Of other news
papers of restraint and decency that
contain all the real news and opinion
Of the day. The ideas of murder, ar
son and adultery so constantly and
vigorously explointcd by the yellow
press cannot fail to have bad effect
on the readers. am at q loss to un-
derstand why people subscribe to them
at all. What does it matter to you or
me If, we do not hear of some detest-
able crime or perversion of morals
happening in some far off corner of
the earth?
'"The mind of the child is peculiarly
susceptible to the kind Of matter made
the most Of in the yellow press. If
you yourself must read this kind of a
newspaper, for PHYS sake arrange so
that your children cannot do So"
The sermon concerned dangers to
faith and morals through improper
reading.

A RIVAL OF THE TROLLEY cAF
Gasoline Motor Cars Are Steadily Com
ing Into Use.

Gasoline Motor Cars Are Steadily Com.
ing Into Use.
1t took nearly fifteen years for the
trolley to expel the horse, task not
wholly completed even vet in back
ward city like New York. 1t may
prove that much less period Is re-
quired to expel the trolley by the gaso-
line or steam motor car.
England is at this point in advance
Of this country. Railroads there have
promptly seized the advantages Of
fered by the motor car, both on the
track and omnibuses. The auto motor
car proves on the railroad line to be
cheaper, more efficient, and more cas-
lily managed than the train made up
of locomotives and cars for light pas
senger service. On the Northwestern
Railway, in England, the increase in
passengers on its motor cars in q wear
was 100000 against 100000 on the
trains.
The Union Pacific has begun the use
of these cars for its suburban service
outside for Omaha. A number of Eng
l1sh railroads have adopted the same
system, finding that on those trains,
familiar on every road, which have to
be run for public convenience, but on
which travel is small, an auto car car
rying passengers and a little baggage
is just as convenient for the passenger
and far more economical for the rail-
road than train. The Taft Valley
line, for instance, reports that a train
costs 80 cents train mile and steam
motor cars II cents.
This, however is only beginning
The Northwestern Railway, in Eng
land has procured legislation permit
ting 1t to run gasoline auto motor ON
nibuses from it's stations in the neigh
borhood of Newcastle and other CEN
ters of population. These run in con-
nection with suburban trains intend
ed to meet the needs Of the commuters
They bring passengers in in the
morning. They take them out at night
They add to the region which can be
reached by man returning to TIL,
city every day for his work n wide
area which these auto cars can cover
without the cost of track and will
no special charter.
The rural trolley will not las, l.. !,
under this competition il it comes
here. The gasoline engine only costs
for power while it is in operation
The capital on the track is all saved
Questions of right of way are avoided
Sparse travel can be gathered profit
ably and economically by this method
In London the omnibus compane
are substituting the auto car on street,
where it was expected to introduce tn
trolley. The advantage of the auto ca
is obvious. 1t can drop its passenger
on the sidewalk 1t calls for no tract,
1t requires no power plant. Above all
instead OF requiring a constant strean
, of electricity, fuel is consumed onl
when it is actually used.-The Phila
delphia Press.

THE CORK TREE.
Growth, Stripping and Preparation
of It's Bark.

Growth, Stripping and Preparation
OF It's Bark.
The methods in vogue in barking and
harvesting the cork in Spain and Por-
tugal are pretty much the same. The
barking operation Is affected when the
tree has acquired sufficient strength to
withstand the rough handling it re-
ceives during this operation, which
takes place when it has attained the
fifteenth year of it's growth. After the
first stripping the tree is left in this
juvenescent state to regenerate, sub
seGuent strippings being effected at In
tervaIs Of not less than three years,
and under this process the tree will
continue to thrive and bear for upward
Of $50 years. If the bark is not re-
moved artifcially, it will on maturity
split and dismantle itself. This Is
caused by the fresh growth of bark
forming underneath.
The cork of the first barking Is
termed corcho bornio-bornizo, or vir-
gin cork The cork Of the second strip
ping is called pelas, or secondary cork.
the tree is performed in summer by
men, who are paid at the rate of
Is. Sd. a day. The instruments used
for the work are an ak, q lever and a
handsaw for the cutting of transyersal
missions. The first process through
which the bark passes after stripping
Is that of boiling This Is sometimes
done in the woods, but more frequent
ly in the cork factory, in large, special
" constructed caldrons, in which the
bark is left to boil for upward Of an
hour. This seething process increases
the thickness and elasticity of the cork
and at the same time the tannin and
other feculent substances generally ex-
listing in the bark are desiccated.-Lon-
don Queen

An Accented Speech.

1t was in 1S47, when the Free Soil
state convention was held at Herki-
mer. There was great gathering of
Free Soil Democrats and abolitionists.
In the ballroom Of the hoteHit was
called a tavern in those days-before
the opening Of the convention were
gathered the leaders, who were con-
structing the new party platform, Stat
ing the officers and committees and
doing other preliminary work. In a
chair tilted against the wall was
Prince John Van Buren,, running over
the manuscript of the great speech he
was to deliver Occasionally he arrest
ed the work of his associates with an
invitation to listen to a paragraph
which he considered especially good.
His readings each time produced laugh
ter and applause. Finally he read a
passage which excited shouts Of laugh
ter and applause. When this had died
away somebody said, John, you ought
to have that part printed in italics"
Prince John affected surprise at the
suggestion. Gentlemen" he said, 81
want you to understand that this
speech is all italics"

Deeds That Live.

In 1901 the Archduke Charles was
called to take command Of the army Of
Austria, which at the battle Of Hob
enlinden had been defeated by the
French and Bavarians. Near the scene
Of action he met a number Of wound
ed soldiers who had been abandoned
on the road by their commander for
want Of horses to draw their carriages
in the retreat. -.-
The archduke, who on many occa-
sions had shown his humanity, i'm
mediately ordered the horses to be
taken from several pieces Of cannon
that were being hauled to the rear
'The life Of one brave man is better
worth preserving than fifty pieces of
ordnance" he said
The abandoned guns fell into the
hands Of the French commander, who
when he heard Of the motive that had
prompted the sacrifice, Immediately or
dered the whole to be sent back to the
gallant archduke with his compliments,
observing that he should be unworthy
Of being the opponent Of his imperial
highness if he took advantage Of so
noble an act Of humanity.

What the
Worm Turned
By Honore Willsie

By Honore Willsie

Bob lay on his cot and looked out the
door of the adobe hut toward the
cooks shack, from the chimney Of
which came wisp of smoke.
Five O'clock" he thought. "Don't
have to get up for an hour yet. It's
going to be a rooster today" And he
threw off the blanket which the cold of
the Mexican night demanded, then lay
with barred chest and hands locked be-
hind his head. Through the door his
gaze could travel for miles across the
desert, and with eyes that saw but did
not heed he stared far out where plain
and sky met.
"Gads! What wouldn't give to see
the little old town." he said aloud.
''The willows on the river are just
smoky fuzz about now. The maple
leaves are just little reddish scraps, and
the hypaticas are out, and the wild
flowers are thick in Holman's woods.
The air is just like-oh, look at those
cactus plants! I wonder what grudge
nature had against the earth when she
made them. And the sky by noon will
be nothing but an inverted redhot
kettle, with us spluttering and frying
down beneath it. Homesick! tell
you, Pm crazy with it! I'm
''Say, Bob, dry up your muttering
and murmuring, will you, and give a
man chance to sleepw And a sleep
flushed face turned toward him from
the cot across the room.
'Too late to sleep now, anyhow, Wal
lace" answered Bob. wake up and
talk to a fellow, can't you?"
Wallace heaved a great sigh, tossed
off his blanket and, like his friend, lay
with bare chest and arms behind his
head.
"Say, Wallace, let's pass this up and
go back to Gods country. These des-
erts are just wearing the heart out Of
me. Let's go back, finish up that last
year In college and settle down and act
white again. Uncle John was right.
We never were cut out for mining ex-
perts. Gads! Six months Of this has
been enough for me. The sun and the
half breeds and, by Jove, most Of all the
blamed bugs have got on my nerves.
I may be as bad as a girl, but admit
that I would like to go back where I
could sleep without wondering if CEN
tipped or half a dozen Of those long
legged spiders were going to snuggle
up to me before morning. Let's go
home Wally." -
Wallace's gray eyes stared steadily
out the door. Bob" he said slowly,
you don't know anything about home
sickness compared with what I could
tell YOU But I tell YOU right here.
