Hibernian Celebration Brings
Out Record Breaking
Crowd.

The annual celebration of the
Ancient Order of Hiberians was at
tended by the largest and happiest
gathering of people witnessed at
Fontaine Ferry this season, and the
results are most gratifying to the
members of the different committees
who had the affair in charge and the
members of the order at large. From
early in the afternoon till late in the
evening people poured into the park,
and it is estimated that there were at
least 10000 admissions. For several
years the Hiberians had the record
breaking crowds, and they continue
to hold the lead. The great crowd was
a jolly one and nothing occurred to
mar the happiness of the occasion.
Pleasing features were the showing
made by the Uniform Rank of Catho-
lie Knights and the splendid service
rendered by the Louisville Railway
Company, under the direction of In
spector Antony Connolly. It is the
universal wish that the Hiberians have
another day before the season ends.

What are the things in life that are
broadening and satisfying. and what
things tend to the pest interests Of
the happy home-life Of humanity?
These are questions which every wom-
an should ask herself and try to an
swer, for it is only by asking ourselves
such questions honestly and answering
them fearlessly that we shall get at
the truth of simple living, and as con-
sequence. happiness. Shall we run
after every new fad at the expense Of
health and happiness and peace Of
mind? Shall we regulate our lives by
what people say, and shall we try to
be something we are not capable Of
being, do something we are not fitted
to do, or live as we are not able to
live? Or shall we determine to stamp
our own simple individuality upon our
lives, and make them simple and hon.

SHOCKING FATALITY
Richard Corcoran Sic led BY
Cramps and Drowned
Wednesday,.

Richard Corcoran, the seventeen
year-old son of Matt Corcoran and a
boy of great promise, met shockingly
sudden death Wednesday afternoon,
Being an athlete and fond of outdoor
sports, he and two young friends, Dan
Whallen and Lee Monahan, started
out for pleasure, and reaching the
canal at Eleventh street they decided
to take a swim. They enjoyed them
selves for time and then the unfor-
tunate lad tried TO swim over to the
old quarry. When about half way
across Corcoran was seen to throw
up his hands, and though his COM
panions made every effort to reach
him he sank and was drowned. Later
the life savers recovered Corcoran's
body, which was removed to the resi-
dence of his parents at 1921 West
Broadway. The father, mother and
three brothers and four sisters were
prostrated when the sad news was i'm
parted to them, and from all sections
of the city came expressions of
sympathy. Richard was a pupil of
the Manual Training High School and
would have graduated next year. The
funeral took place yesterday morning
from the Sacred Heart church, Rev.
Patrick Walsh celebrating the solemn
mass of requiem.

MEANS NOTHING
AbsuPdIfy or the Old Saw
That Blood Will
Tell.

Among other "old saws" that sound
well but mean nothing is the one,
"blood will tell"-indicating that your
man of good birth, family, culture,
etc., can be depended on to carry him
self through life as a gentleman and
if he sins, sin "as gentleman should"
There's nothing in it! Much of the
bluest blood in every land has reached
it's unnatural hue through generations
OF debauchery; scions of the oldest
the consequences of their crimes by
virtue of the influence exerted in
their behalf and prodigal expenditure
of money. Take the Thaw-White
murder case, just now engaging the at
tention of two continents. The MUIR
derer, Thaw, comes of an old family
with millions of money at is COM
mand. He had every benefit of edu-
cation, travel, association with the
high and mighty-nothing was lack
ing to enable him to be decent and
become a leader among men; what
part did blue blood play in his career?
He led life of dissipation, married
chorus girl of doubtful reputation, and
in cold blood murdered rival for his
wife's affections. White, the murdered
man, as has come out since the shoot
ing. was libertine. beside whose de-
baucheries the antics of Sultan Of
Sulu are as a Sunday school picnic.
And yet White was also a descendant
of one of the fine old American fami-
lies, had everything that life could
offer in way of gold and pleasure, and
incentive to be right. What did blue
blood do for this beastly Turk, who
should have been shot a hundred
times? Fie upon blue" blood! God
and nature has decreed that blood
should be red; and the farther away
in color the life-fuid gets from its or
dained hue, the surer do we find
mental and physical decay. May
heaven have mercy upon a country
that looks to its blue-blooded Harry X.

lection against the red-biooded foreign
ers who threatens to usurp the landl

MORALITY IN IRELAND.

Morality is now playing very Inn
portant part in war. No government
now wants drinking men in her army
or navy. We are just learning that
morality is a very prominent factor in
political economy. Marriage and the
birth rate are now quotable in the
great commercial exchanges. John
w. Taylor, professor of gynaecology in
the Birmingham, England, university,
and the foremost statistician of Great
Britain, in an article contributed to
the Nineteenth Century Magazine on
the decline of births in England, says
of the morality of the Irish people,
that Irelands birth rate is the highest
in Europe. DR.. Taylor explains the
morality of Ireland by remarking:
"The fertility of Ireland seems to show
the power of religious faith and prac-
tice in stemming the tide of luxurious
selfiishness and social suicide. Ireland
is chiefly a Roman Catholic country,
and its birth rate In the main repre-
sents the true fertility of the country"
With glorious tribute to Ireland's
morality, published in the pages Of an
English magazine, and written by one
of England's greatest professors of
medicine, is the honest. true. unpreju-
diced verdict Of DIR. Taylor. Ireland
with birth rate the highest In Europe
and with people whose morality wins
the admiration Of all who honor purity
of life, adds another jewel to her
crown of glory.
Her religion, her loyal Catholicity,
keeps Erin from the social sin which
is sweeping over England, cursing
France and gnawing into the life OF
this country. France" says DR.. Tay-
lor, in his article, has anticipated the
rest of the world and has thus come
near the consummation of its social
felo de se." DR.. Taylor charges the
lowering of the birth rate of the world
not to 'the greater stress Of modern
life, but as consequence Of the great
er desire for luxury"

vile. purchasing Frank Leverone's
place on Green street, just below
Fourth. During this short space Of
time they have made a legion of
friends, and now their cafe is one Of
the most popular in the central part of
the city. With this article we pre-
sent the picture of James, the senior
member of the firm, who belongs to
the Elks and several fraternal So
cieties. For years they were active
in all Irish and Catholic affairs in
Bowling Green, and it will not be
long until they are heard of in the
same way here in Louisville. Two
weeks ago the Currans suffered a
small loss from fire that started in
Kirby's store, but they at once went
to work and are having their house
made newer and better than before.

REPUBLICAN SPLIT ELY

August 1 is the date for a notable
State convention in Iowa, which may
split the Republican party. Governor
Cummins of the progressive" ele-
ment, has upon the face of things
enough delegates to secure a re-nomi-
nation. But the State Central Com
mittee is anti-Cummins, and may, in
making up the credentials, throw out
enough Cummins delegates to give
the nomination to some one else.
There are strong interests in the Re-
publican party that want "the Iowa
idea" crushed. 1t is disrespectful to
the sacred tariff.

MACKIN COUNCIL.
Reading or Washin5fon'S Ad.
dress Feature OF Last
Meeting.

An unusually large meeting of mem
bers of Mackin Council was held Tues
day night and the volume of business
caused a rather late adjournment.
The feature of the evening was fur
nished by Will Daily who read Wash
ington's address to the Catholics and
made a short but patriotic talk that
aroused great enthusiasm.
Ben Sand had for his subject the
Seven Corporal Works of Mercy"
and Carl Bartsch told why Catholics
genuflect and raise their hats when
entering and passing the church.
Both were instructive and interesting,
and proved the wisdom of the educa-
tional policy that is now being pur-
sued. President Raidy announced that
the questions to be answered next
Tuesday night would be the Fourth
commandment and What are the four
cardinal virtues? The speakers named
for the following meeting were Messrs.
Thomas ID. Clines, Sr., and Samuel
Robertson, who are two of the rising
orators of the council.
One application was presented and
the transfer card of Leo Dawson was
received from st. GATHERINGS Council.
c. Hartlage was taken from the sick
list and William Pfanmiller was re-
ported on the way to speedy recovery.
Secretary Lanaham read a congratula-
tory letter from Rev. John ]. Higgins,
and Secretary Boland presented the
report of the Executive Committee,
which complimented the officers for
the efficient manner in which the
hooks were kept and the business Of
the organization transacted. After ap-
pointing Messrs. John Lynn, Charles
Klehammer aid James Mullarkey as
an investigating committee for three
months, the Chairman introduced
Herman Holkamp, who closed the
meeting with short but spirited ad-
dress.

NEGRO WHIPPED in DELAWARE
Crowds Eager to See Brutal Punish
ment of a Brute at VIII
mington.

WILMINGTON. Del. Sept 22-Before
the eager gaze OF nearly 500 persons,
Charles Conley, the negro who was a few
days ago sentenced to fifty years imprison-
ment and to receive thirty lashes for COM
hitting an atrocious assault and battery
upon Mrs. Beatrice FSsnkish and her
daughter, Miss Gussie Leitch, two weeks
ago, was publicly whipped today in the
yard of the Newcastle county workhouse.
While there have been many whippings In
the Jail In the past, none attracted the
interest as that OF Conley. More than
1000 persons clamored Tor admission to
the workhouse yard, which was too small
to accommodate all Of them.
Although the lashes were well laid . on,
they were carefully distributed. SO that no
blood was drawn. The mans back, how
ever. when the castigation was completed.
was a mass of dark welts and ridges al
most from shoulders to waist. Conley
staggered slightly when he was released,
but was able to walk without assistance TO
his cell, where he entered upon his sem
tence of Imprisonment for half a CEN

The reputation given to country consta-

chequer by passing a few forged checks
on the local merchants, so 1t is reported.
He is said to have passed a worthless check
for SIPS on the jewelry firm of Brodegaard
& Co., lis South Sixteenth street and the
police believe he passed a check for a small
amount on a secondhand dealer near
Nineteenth and Davenport streets.
Jorgenson skipped town, hut was located
Friday at Extra, where, It is said, his
father is prominent merchant. Chiof
Donahue wired the officers at Extra to he
certain to detain him, as he had a war
rant for his arrest When Detective Ferris
arrived at Extra Saturday morning 1t WAS
found that Jorgenson had been turned over
to the prosecuting attorney of the county
for safe keeping. who had in turn released
him, and Jorgenson Immediately departed.
