CONSUL MARQUES ON
SAILORS AND CHURCH

Editor Advertiser: Sir, I wish,
through your courtesy to be allowed
to say a few words, in reference to
some misapprehension contained in an
article published in yesterdays issue
of your valuable paper, concerning the
war and the Catholic Mission here. 1t
is true that, for some years past, off
GERS of the French navy passing here,
have ceased to call OFFICIALLY on
the clergy of the Catholic Mission,
while this formality was regularly OBJ
served in former times. But the rea-
son of this change is not at all con
nected with any of the present un-
fortunate disagreements between the
French government and the Pope of
Rome and his clergy. The Catholic
Mission here was founded by French
priests, backed when necessary by
French influence; the first Bishop here
was a Frenchman, and his church was
for many years Familiarity called the
French Mission-the next door Con
vent being still called the French
Sisters. Bishops in France being gov
ernment officials, having regular
standing, assimilated officially in rank
to some grades in the naval or civil
services, it was therefore only natural
that the officers of French war ships
calling here should go and pay their
respects officially on the Catholic
French Bishop here, as any French of
fetal anywhere would call on other of
ficials of the same nation. But, of
late, the Catholic clergy here have
gradually ceased to be French, not one
out of ten at present being French
citizens; they are now Belgians, or
Dutch, or Germans, and while it might
be at present the proper thing for
the officers of German or Belgian ships
to call on them OFFICIALLY, there
is no longer any reason for this to
be done by French ofiicerss not any
more than there would be official rea-
SON for them to call on the American
Bishop, or on Spanish Bishops in South
ern America. AT any rate, though there
may be differences between the French
government and the Catholic clergy
ON matters of administration, or on
the manner of liberating the church in
France of the incubus of being under
government authority and salaries by
government money, yet there is no at
tempt on the part of the French Re
public to interfere with the religious
beliefs of its citizens, nor to dictate
to them whether to go to church OF
not.
Yours truly,

Trinity Takes First
OF District Amateur
Championship Series
Small Attendance at Opening of Post-SeaSon Due
to Threatening Weather-Treasury's Poor
Showing Result of Patched Lineup

Trinity captured the drst OF the Dis
riot amateur championship series yes
terday at American League Park by
to 1.
Owing To the weather. which threat
ened rain al the afternoon, it was gen
orally supposed that the game would be
POSTPONED. q fact which resulted in
small attendance in spite OF the interest
which District followers Of amateur
baseball are displaying in the series.
The newspaper office phones were kept
busy throughout the afternoon with
queries as TO whether the game would
be pulled OF. and many expressed their
disappointment this morning at mad
vertently missing the initial contest.
Jimmy Kerr, Of Georgetown fame,
was in no small degree responsible for
Trinity's victory. His benders were
Chinese puzzles to the disconnected
money counters. and they connected
with his delivery but twice in the nine
innings OF play. He was in perfect
form. and seldom has mis- phenomenal
speed been displayed to such excel
lent advantage. Neither OF the two
hits which his opponents tailed figured
in rungetting. In addition to his pitch
ing. he delded his position perfectly
and tapped out two bingles.
Donaldson, on the slab for the Treas
ury. deserves almost as much credit.
especially in view OF the miserable sup

runs scored BY the Georgetown lads
