PractIced What He Preached.

Rev. Denis p. O'Flynn. OF New York
city, used to say that priests ought to
die poor and he practiced what he
preached. Aside from valuable IL
brary given to the Paulist fathers he
has left no discoverable estate-no
money in bank, no money liz the rec
tory. HE died as poor as the proverb-
ial church mouse" says his assistant,
Father Corrigan. What little insur-
ance he carried will barely cover the
funeral expenses. He never saved q
ponny for himself After keeping the
house on his meager salary he gave
away all he had

Laundry work at home would be

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order 10 get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness. which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely cTercome by using De
fiance Starch. as II can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
er strength than other makes.

Ii Feeling Leads to a Fistic
Encounter Between Two
Young Men

Two young men on their way home
from work last evening about $3.50 o'clock
engaged In fistic encounter that resulted
in one OF them receiving a black eye and
several other UTVrUTUrOcS or inc OCCasIOn.
II was said that the trouble was the re-
suit of bad feelings that have existed for
some time between the young men and the
encounter was TO settle matters definitely.
Quite a crowd collected about the com
batants, but the affair ended by friends
stepping in before any arrests were made.
The king pin on a large two-horsc cart
belonging to John Campbell, teamer,
loaded with building stone. broke off on
Water street, near Liberty street, and the
wagon was dumped backwards, throwing
the heap OF stone over the highway and
blocking the road until another pin re-
placed the broken one and the cart was
righted and started on It's way No other
damage resulted.

are members OF Bristol aerie No. 95S, are

OF making Cuba an American state. Their
reason is based on the purely selfish and
material consideration OF wages. To them
an American Is the symbol OF money.
They know that from the moment the
United States terminated the rule OF Spain
their wages were raised. They know that
