THE FAIREST OF THE FAIR.

The boss. you see, requested me
To write some fair time poetry.
So do not hunt me with stone:
The blame for this is his alone
My harp is badly out Of tune.
And fleecy clouds obscure the moon.
So how in thunder can poet
Compel his fiery steed TO go It?
our fair, I've guessed. will be the best
That ever was or ever can.
And all next week the folks will speak
Of how those speedy horses ran.
And oh. what joy for every boy
II is 10 see those brpncos buck
He thinks. 20 my" | wish that
Could BE- a bronco buster. too.
Just then the cayuse gives IA pitch;
OFF goes the rider in the ditch.
And softly murmurs. Damn the luck q"
The boy thinks. why IL 1 should try
Perhaps Ia get the same as you.
And that would never. never do.

And of the finest fruits that grow,

The citizens of those towns in Arr
IONA where clearing house certificates
and cashiers checks are filling the
vacancy created by the departure OF
the dollar of our dads regard the in
novation without alarm or distrust but
even with familiar affection, referring
to the new temporary currency as
'.wampum" or "boleta." 1t has been
discovered that this new tender though
not entirely legal performs all the du-
ties required of it. 1t will buy any
thing in the way Of needs and even
luxuries that money will buy and
so for all practical and immediate
purposes is as good as money. 1t is
in itself a sign of solvency and so ere
ates confidence which after all like a
good name. is to be esteemed rather
this make-shift is regarded as fore
taste of an asset currency, or at any
rate of a more elastic currency than
we now have and which would have
for its main advantage over clearing
house certificates a greater freedom of
circulation than the certificates which
are intended only TO meet the tempa-
rary needs Of the immediate neighbor-
hood in which they are issued. Any
form Of asset currency that might be
adopted would not necessarily carry
with it a greater degree or security
than these certificates issued by strong
banks such as those of this territory
are They have back OF them not
merely a single bank but all the finan-
cial strength of all the banks Of the
neighbOrhood.
Though for many purposes it has
been found in Bisbee. Tucson and other
towns where these certificates are
used that they are not as convenient
as the ordinary form of currency. they
are convenient enough to prevent EN-
barrassment which but for this wan
pun" might have degenerated into a

PASTOR ADVOCATES LICENSE
Maine Experience Prompted Him to
Oppose Prohibition

The Rev. Earl c. Davis, the working
pastor of the Unity Church of Pitts
field. created a sensation in the No
License League land Berkshire Minis
ters' Club by announcing that he is in
favor of high license.

a moral standpoint" said he to a

accrue to a city the size of Pittsfield
from the liquor element. but l do be
lieve that dry city would be greatly

ION. What | saw in Maine prompts
me TO my action now, and that is the
reason | have taken this stand.
From what | observed in Maine |
believe that no license in Pittsfield
would mean the establishment of in
Vulnerable kitchen dives that would
be followed OF run in connection with
houses of illrepute. and morally the
effect would be infinitely worse than
with the open saloon under supervis-
ion Of authorities.
Auburn and Lewiston in Maine are
about the size of Pittsfield. In Aub-
urn alone there are $50 kitchen bar
rooms and as many more in Lewiston
under a socalled prohibition regime.
Some Of the Pittsfield ministers
asked me TO join the Anti Saloon
League. but its views and mine do not
coincide. and l refused TO become a
member. 1 may have something fur
Their to say about this later"
As Pittsfield went license by only
forty nine votes last year. an aggrcs-
sive campaign has already been start

the supervision of the other Pittsfield
ministers.

The Rev. Earl c. Davis is the most pic
turesque. Last January he created d
stir ia his church by setting forth this
opinion in regard to church suppers:
Church suppers for revenue as they

tickets for such suppers to those who

MAY ERADICATE CONSUMPTION.
Physician Believes Familiarity with II
Decreases Its Virulence.

Dr. Woods Hutchinson. Of New York
celebrates in the columns OF the New
York Medical Journal the theory that
man may in time become practically
immune to the ravages Of tuberculosis
through long familiarity with it. He
makes no absolute statement To this
effect. says the Detroit Free Press in
discussing his article. bue he leads us
to believe that he is at least a tenta-
tive convert To the theory. The doctor
asserts that modern disease Of child
hood" such as measles. chickenpoX
and whoopinc cough. were originally
virUlenJ adult maladies. He says also
taht abundant evidence Of tuberculosis
which attacks members Of the white
race.
1t is quit possible that in it, earliest
form tuberculosis was a rank. acute
and septic infection involving the
glands. bones. joints. ana all the Wis
ezra alike. as is the bubonic plague

adds that while it may be nothing
more than a coincidence. the fact re-
mains that among the Indians the dis
ease is inclined To rever To- this viru-
lent. generalized infections form. Res
ervation doctors cite cases of braves
who have died within three weeks Of
the first attack.
Dr. Hutchinson does not fatty assert
whether the comparative immunity Of
the whites is acquired or Inherited.
He believes that both influence have
played their parts. In support Of his
theory that Familiarity breeds immun-
itv. he asserts that whereas the men

no more susceptible t. diseases with
which they have J ng been familiar

WANTS ENDOWMENT OF

Cardinal Gibbons Appeals to Clergy to
Raise Big Fund for Catholic
University.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 25.-Cardinal Glib
bons has sent a circular letter to the
bishops and archbishops of the American
Hierarchy in which he urges the creation
of a 81, 000. 900 endowment fund for the
Catholic University In Washington, of
which he is chancellor.
las at present we have only about $780,
900, it follows that the remaining 81, 49,
900 should soon be raised" the cardinal
writes. w have in prospect on a reason
able expectation. $450,0 900, thus leaving a
million dollars. which ! sincerely trust will
be obtained by earnest efforts in the near
future. The proposed endowment of 81
900, 900 would mean an annual income of
$4,000.
'Our action in building up the university
would also be a fitting response to the
words burning with zeal of our Holy
Father, who in his recent encyclieal APP
peals so earnestly to all bishops to with
stand, by the teaching of sound science. the
pernicious encroachments of error. Moth
ing, I am sure, would afford him greater
comfort nor prove our devotion and united
endeavor In behalf of the Catholic Uni
versity.
For these reasons, then, l venture to
urge that the great movement for higher
Catholic education be carried forward with
ever-increasing energy for the glory of
God, the defense Of religion, the consola-
ton of our sorely tried pontif and the
honor of the church in America"

a car step and missed his footing. Above
the roar Of the pulling engine and the
bowling Wild the cries Of the injured
man was heard by a member Of the train
crew and the train brought TO a stop.
The conductor was found squirming
about on the ~trestle, the severed parts of
his legs under a car. An ambulance was
summoned and the man removed to ST.
Francis Hospital. His condition is said
to be critical.

LIFE. STAKE
AT CARD
GAME
Love for Old-cOuntry Sweet
heart Leads to Shooting
in New York.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Love for the
daughter of a wealthy wine manufac-
turer named Deguibo, Of Palermo. Sic
lily, is believed by the police to have
led to the murder of Sebaticello Deiuca,
of 174 Mulberry street, who was in
stantly killed by a shot from a revolver
fired by Angelo Mananhiat in the little
cafe in the basement OF 179 Mulberry
street today.
The shooting took place within 100
feet of the Mulberry street police sta
ton, and Captain Hayes and Detec-
tive Hammer were in the place two
minutes after the Shot was fired. They
saw the body of the dead man stretched
on the floor beside a little table. In a
corner backing against the wall a
man who held a revolver in his right
hand was Lorenzo Laneso, proprietor
of the cafe. They took Laneso and also
another inmate of the place, Nikola
Targagilia, of 322 East 1881 street. DR..
Baldwin, of ST. Vincent's Hospital, who
was summoned to attend to the man
who was shot, said that the bullet had
pierced his heart and hat he had died
instantly.
From the stories told by Tartagilia
and Laneso the police are of the opinion
that Deluca and Mananhiat played a
game of a series of games of cards,
the stake being the life of the loser.
This theory is due to the fact that when
the card game-trisette it ~was-ended,
there were some heated words and De-
luca sat with his hands folded. When
the pistol of his enemy was pulled he
made no movement. but sat still while
the muzzle was placed almost against
his chest and the trigger pulled. De-
lucas was armed, and knowing h des-
perate character of Mananhait. and the
fact that they were rivals for the af-
fections of the same girl, would, I'M
less there were some kind of an IN
derstanding, the police say, lead him
to try to protect himself.

is now before Congress, and has been
favorably reported in the Senate,
There are S0.0o0, 900 acres of swamp land
in the whole country distributed over
States, the reclamation OF
which, according to drainage experts,
would not only add to the wealth of the
nation about 1000 600 annually, but would
greatly improve sanitary conditions as
well. This latter problem has drawn the
attention of the anti-mosquito forces to
the congress and papers showing the
relation Of drainage to mosquito 'extermi-
nation and the mosquito as a sanitary
problem will be offered by leaders in the
mosquito eX elimination movement. Pro-
fessor John B. Smith, New Jerseys ento-
molOgfst, read a paper on the subject.
