tBy Associated Press.)

Rene, Dec. 16.-Pope Plus X to-
day held secret consistory in the
vatican in which he created four new
cardinals and preconized several
bishops.
The new cardinals are Monsignor
Pietro Gasparri, secretary of the con-
gregation of extraordinary ecclesias-
teal affairs; Mohsignor De Lai, sec
rotary of the congregation of the
council; Monsignor Ludovio Henry
Lucon of Rheims. and Monsignor
Paul Pierre Andrieuv, archbishop of
Marseilles.
The pope delivered an elocution in
which he made reference to the per-
secution of the Redeemer and said
his church had been attacked from
all sides in warfare open or dissum-
ulated. The rights and laws of tho
church had been trampled upon even
by those who should safeguard them,
and an impious and vulgar press had
fought her even to the extent OF dis
turbing the public quiet. The pom
tin cited the recent disorders III It
ally.
ITO this must be added" he con-
tinued, "the disastrous propaganda
in the bosom of Catholicism itself,
which is being carried on by mod
ernlsts who disdain pontifical author
ity and desire themselves authorita-
lively to sanction a new faith and a
new conscience"
Fulfilling his apostolic duty. the
pope said he had adopted against the
modernists such measures as were
considered necessary.

WOMAN
SHOPLIFTINC
THREE LOCAL STORES
Suffered From the Petty
Thieving of Mrs. Bessie
Mccarthy Arrested Today
She Confessed

Detected In the act of stealing a
number of articles from the Faahloa
dry goods store, Mrs Bessie McCaE-
ty, whose home Is in the Plateau
valley, was arrested this afternoon
and arraigned In the court of Jus
tiee Sweeney. charged with shopllft-
Ing.
The woman had stolen n number
of cheap combs and belt. and other
trinkets, aggregating in value about
SS.25. For some time she denied
her guilt, but finally confessed and
stated that she was willing to givo
tho stolen property back.
Justice Sweeney assessed a fine of
So and costs against the woman.
amounting in all to s15.95.
However, during the trial. a $nall
suit case carried by the woman was
searched and a humber of dolls, ba-
by clothes and trinkets of various
kinds were discovered. 1t was sus-
pected that her petty thieving had
not been confined to the Fashion
store. On further investigation it
was found that the woman had Wis
ited the Fair store ard the Five and
Ten Cent store. and had stolen quite
suantlty of articles at each place
The proprietors of these stores tden-
tifea many of the articles that she
had ~ the suit case, some of the ar
tleles having the name of the Fair
and the Five and Ten Cent store on
them.
The woman, while admitting the
theft n the Fashion. abaoImciy ne
from the Fair or the Five and Ton
Cent store. She declared that the
goods as identified as being from tho
two latter stores she found at Glen
wood Springs. However, there was
no question of her guilt and the stol-
on goods were returned to their right
rul owners. As one complaint had
already been filed against the woman
and as she had not stolen goods of
great value, the Fair store and the
Five and Ten Cent store did not flle
criminal charges against the woman.
The woman did not have the mon
ey to pay the IS and costs. but be-
lieved she could raise it; and. as

years. She was accompanied by
pretty young girl. said to be the
daughter of John Patton, the pla-
teau valley rauchman. who killed his
son-in-law on December "a last year
The girl was not implicated in tho
thefts.
It Is. indeed, a deplorable thing for
a woman well along in years to be-
gnlIty OF such deeds.
