ASH WEDNESDAY STARTS
FORTY DAYS FASTING
LARGE CONGREGATIONS ATTEND
CHURCH SERVICES
Bishop conaty at st. vibiana's Tells
Meaning of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
of Lenten Inaugural Is General
Among the Faithful

Remember, man, for dust thou art,
and unto dust shalt thou return" to-
gether with the sacred symbol of
death, yesterday marked the opening
of the forty days of the Lenten sea-
son. Until the Easter morn will the
faithful abstain from worldly pleasures
and devote themselves to works of
charity, aims giving, fasting and
prayer.
Throughout the city large congrega-
tions attended the Ash Wednesday SER
vices yesterday. At the Catholic
churches the ashes, made by burning
the palms used on Palm Sunday, were
placed on the foreheads of the devout
kneeling before the affairs. In the Epis-
copal churches early celebration of
communion marked the day.
Rt Rev. Bishop Conaty preached the
sermon last evening at the Cathedral
of st. Vibiana. With all the eloquence
for which he is famed, the bishop told
of the plan and meaning of salvation.
He said in part:
Remember, man, for dust thou art,
and unto dust thou shalt return are
the words with which the church be-
gins the holy season of Lent. The
placing of ashes on the forehead Is
no idle ceremony. 1t has a meaning
which the church would have sink into
our very souls These are words ring
ing in the ears of men since God in
the early days of man sounded them
for the first time to tell him that upon
life there is a burden and task. 1t is
the universal law-there is no excep-
ton, for all men shall die and the
body shall turn to dust.
what is the meaning and what les
son has it for us? We are gathered to-
gether today at the mass in every
corner of the civilized earth, around
an altar like this and the world has
heard the great warning. What does
it mean? All, it means to summon us
from our busy affairs of life. 1t means
to call us from our social amusements,
to retire within ourselves, and in the
secret of our own souls to mediate on
life.
In the world where pleasure, money
and sin count, the soul has no value.
Because these maxims are dinged into
our ears we need to have a solemn
voice raised in warning, summoning us
from the hurly-burly of human cares
to retire within ourselves and listen to
the small still voice of conscience.
THE world is looking at us-the ir-
religious and the inf1del, who wonder
whether we believe what we say. We
hear it said we see Catholics, Christ
ians, no better That is a reproach. !
We know the trust and we shall be
by it."
The ceremony of blessing the ashes
was held at the cathedral at 9 o'clock,
Rt. Rev. Mgr. Harnett, V. c., being
celebrant of the mass. Special music
was rendered under the direction of
Rev. T. F. Fahey.
Mass was celebrated at 9 O'clock at

NEIL KNOCKS OUT TENNY
Bantam Champion of America Wins
Every Round and Puts Opponent
Out in Fourteenth Round
BY Associated Prass.

by Associated FseSa.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2S.-Frankie
Neil, the American bantamweight
champion, successfully defended his
title by knocking out Harry Tenny in
the fourteenth round tonight at Me-
chanics pavilion. At no time was Neil
in danger of losing. He out-fought
his man from start to finish.
Neil played havoc with Tenny's face
early in the contest and in the fourth
round almost closed Tenny's right eye
with terrific left hook
Neil's main reliance was his left,
which he placed with wonderful ac-
curacy and seldom failed to connect
with either Tenny's jaw or body when
he cut loose. He seldom used his right.
AS early as the fourth round Neil
had his man groggy. He played for
Tenny's face and body and when the
bell rang Tenny went unsteadily to
his corner.
1t was the same story all through
the fight. Neil continued to batter
Tenny about at will, his body blows
being especially powerful
Only cnce did Tenny appear to have
chance. This was in the seventh
round, when after a furious rally in
which he was being badly worsted,
Tenny caught Neil on the jaw with g
right swing that sent him almost to
the ropes. He took the count, but on
regaining his feet his head cleared
and he succeeded in evening up mat
tiers.
The eleventh round saw the beginning
of the end. Neil kept constantly after
his man, planting his left to the body
and jaw with merciless precision.
The fourteenth and last round Tenny
was given such punishment as has
seldom been administered to a pugilst
in the local ring.
Neil started the round with, terrific
left body smash that sent Tenny reel
ing against the ropes.
Another blow, similarly applied, sent
Tenny to the floor for the count of
nine He got up very groggy, with
Neil raining blow after blow upon his
helpless antagonist. Finally Tenny
went to the floor from a succession or
left body and face blows. where he
remained until Referee Billy Roche
counted him out.
Tenny was in very bad shape and
presented pitiable appearance as he
was carried to his corner, where his
handlers worked on him for several
minutes to round him into shape.
Neil left the ring without a mark.
He announced that he would at once
challenge Jem Bowker, the English
champion who received a decision over
him in London a year ago.
Neil was favorite in the betting, at
odds of 10 to 8. The lads fought at. 120
pounds, ringside.

SECURES NEW DEPUTIES
Civil Service Commission Reinforced
In Anticipation of Annual
Appraisinq Job

The names of sixteen new deputies
were sent to City Assessor Lewis yes

and these men, with the force regularly
employed in the assessors office, will
begin the first of next week to appraise

income for the next year of $1,8S5,000
to pay municipal expenses. This is an
increase over last year of $31, S37 SS9,
and an increase in the city's income of
$31S,37S.
The work of assessing must be COM
pleted by July /, when the fiscal year
begins and when the finance committee

unpleasant experience during the
campaign of 1904 must have made
him feel most keenly. In two
formal messages he advocated the
passage of a bill was introduced
and passed by the senate, but the
house, supposed until last winter
to be the branch most quickly
respon sive to the popular demand,
allowed the bill to be sidetracked
and then put to death by sutfoca-
ton. The President did not see
fit to urge action by the house,
which could have been secured by
the briefest kind of II special mes
sage while nothing, of course, was
expected of Speaker Cannon ard
the stand pat house oligarchy who
have found "fat frying" campaigns
SO profitable, and were evidently
disposed to bid for one more big
fund from corporations, to be used
in carrying the next house.
Had this bill been allowed to
emerge from committees no voice
or vote would have been recorded
against it. No man would have
dared to oppose measure which
can be objected to only on the
ground hat Doodle has become an
indispensable factor in our elec-
tions, Nobody believes that the
swollen campaign funds of the
past ten years were either neces.
sary or legitimate, and everybody
knows that as long as corporations
are permitted to supply the sinews
of political war, our politics will
be neither free nor honorable. Most
of those contributions simply a
contract beginning "for value to
be received, and are to all lntents
and purposes merely the price of
goods for future delivery,
The only way to beat such "a
bill to have 1t "lost in the shuttle, "
and this was done by Speaker
Cannon and his satellites and
without calling forth protest or
rebuke from the White House. No
purpose could have been more
plainly advertised and no pious
fraud more clearly disclosed.

Creamer Will Stay.

Columbus, o., July There is
Il probability that the law will stay
the removing hand of Governor
Harris for State Fire Marshal d.
S. Creamer and that the latter will
b. allowed the unbridled control
of his big department unless he
shall give the Governor greater
cause for removal than the firing
of Republicans and the placing of
Democrats in their stead.
1t is limited that the Attorney
General from the start has consid-
cred that it would be bad politics
for the Governor to remove any of
the appointees of his dead pre-
decessor; and therefore, it is be,
lieved no effort will be made to
twist the law into an authoriza-
tion of executive control over the
subordinates of the Fire Marshal.
The retention OF Creamer will
turn into a farce the scramble that
has been going on between II. II.
Hollenbeck and lily ID. Davis for
the appointment as Fire Marshal

Spit Not.
MURRAY City NewsA

Logan has just past an ordinan.
ce fixing a fine of five dola g on
any person who willfully expec-
tu"ates upon the side walk.
We speak of this that our fell
ows from ward will be on their
guard when they visit the county
seat. If you wish to spit boys
when in Logan, kindly and eau
tiously step to the edge of the side
walk raise your fingers to your
mouth and squirt just as far into
the street as possible. Before
drawing your head back however
see to it that you rake your hand
down oyer your chin to make sure
the chin whiskers do not retain a
drop of the juice which might drop
upon the side walk.
After all, the ordinance is
good one and would be useful in
our own town. There is nothing
so filthy, so vulgar in appearance,
as to see a sidewalk bespattered
with tobacco spit. 1t dosen't t
speak well for the property ad.
joining and it speaks less for the
man who puts it there.

Tell Them to a Policeman.
tAthens Messenger

Mayor Day and Marshal Finster-
wald would indeed be the father
and elder brother of the city's
wronged if they undertook to run
down and settle all the complaints
that come to their ears. One day
it is this, another day that, and of
all the stories and tales of woe and
trouble that are poured into the
ears of these two city officials
there is no end. Some of the ta les
are pitiful some laughable and
some entirely ludicrous.
jim Nero was the latest hero to
report to Mayor Day. His story
was sad one to hear for it told,
of son, named after his father
who swore at his breakfast, dinner
and supper, and as we'll called his
father and mother vile names and
would not do IL stroke of work.
Mayor Day listened to the tale and
while he made the old father no
promises there is feeling that
James Nero, Jr., had better keep
out of trouble and go to work or
he will go where generous supply
of "work" is always on tap.
Marshal Fins got hold of the
next complainant who proved to
be Gal Lucas from Big Run. Cal
wanted fellow by the name of
Frank Norman arrested at once
for taking nine bottles of whiskey
from him and while it would hard
ly do to say that Cal had been
drinking itrather looked as though
he bought whiskey by the dozen
bottles il he had nine stolen. The
Marshel sympathized with Mr..
Lucas over the loss of his whiskey
and promised to help him find il
sometime-and Cal started home
satisfied.

"a printers devil who was going
thru his first experience on "mak-

late and the boy got the galleys
mixed. The pecunious citizen,
had been dumped in the forms and
the next handful of type came off
galley describing recent fire.
1t read like this: "The pallbear-
ers lowered the body to the grave
and as it was consigned to the
flames there were few if any re-
grets for the old wreck had been
an eyesore to the town for years.
OF course there was individual loss
but that was fully covered by in
surance. The widow thinks the
editor wrote the obituary that way
because the latter partner of her
joys and sorrows owed him five
years subscription.

return from abroad to give prac-
tical illustration of the feasibility
of applying the publicity prlnci-
pie to the collection of campaign
contributions. In letter to
William Hoge, president of the
Commercial Travellers Antitrust
league, which was received yester-
day, Mr.. Bryan approved the
plans for the reception so far as
they had been laid before him, and
cautioned the managers to avoid
all factional disputes, that all fac
tions might have an equal chance,
and $50 that it will not be our
fault if everything is not harmon
ious."
Mr.. Bryan spoke of the question
of raising money to defray the
cost of the reception, and made
the suggestion that a popular sub
scripticn involving the principle
of publicity be employed.
"a popular subscription, with
the publication of the names of all
persons giving s5 or more" he
wrote, Hwould be a practical illus
tration of our belief in the public
ity of campaign contributions, and
would not only show that it was
not paid for with trust money bat
would set good example for the
campaign.
