killed in this city by one of his race,
named Day The slayer was, after
the usual delays End preliminaries,
brought to trial and promptly found
guilty of murder in the first degree
without recommendation and SEN
fenced to death The usual appeal
followed, which was dismissed, and
the invariable petition TO the pardon
board followed, this also resulting in
failure. Then began the preparations
for execution, coincidently with the
work of the sentimentalsts, who are

were low as compared with those OF
1870 Present prices follow a long
series of prosperous years.
The story is an apt illustration OF
the fact that in discussing and COM
pairing prices people often cover short
periods of time for comparison. The
price of yesterday is compared with
that of today instead of general
average being taken to cover a rea-
sonable amount of time. The gov
ernment's method of estimating
crops with reference to a five or ten
year average might we'll be followed
in studying price movements.-Inland

A sanity form of angelic light,

Until mine eyes are filled with tears,

POPE WILL MAKE
MARRIAGE CHANGE
1t Will Be the Most Sweeping
In This Line Made in
Centuries.
CEREMONY NOT. NEEDED
WEDDING BY CONSENT WILL BE
LEGAL-ACTION OF INTEREST
TO CATHOLICS IN THE UNITED
STATES.

A dispatch from Rome announces
that within few days an extraordina-
rily sensational law interesting all
Catholic clergymen and laymen in the
United States and affecting directly all
Catholics in America will be promul-
gated by the Vatican authorities. I'm
til now the church law has been that
American Catholics can contract mar
riage validly by going before justice
or even before a Protestant minister,
when duly licensed by civil authorities,
but under the new law all these mar
riages will be regarded as null and void
among Catholics.
Such marriages have been merely
recognized as binding, but have been
disapproved and the principals punish
ed by communication.
The new law, which is contained in
decree of the congregation of the coun-
Gil. drafted by the special request of his
holiness Pope Plus X, ordains that
from next Easter no marriage among
Catholics shall be valid unless they are
contracted before a duly authorized
priest III the presence Oh Two WllueSStS-
There will be only two exceptions to
this law, which is to be universal for
all countries of the globe. The first is
that when there is imminent danger of
death and no duly authorized priest is
obtainable then any obtainable priest
can perform the ceremony in the pres
ence of two witnesses. The second is
decidedly revolutionary.
1t is that when there is no priest OBJ
tainable in a district man and woman
may contract a marriage that will be
valid merely by announcing their con-
sent or intentions in the presence of
two witnesses.
This latter is the most important
change made in the marriage laws of
the church during the past three centu-
ries. 1t introduces a radical overturn-
ing of legislation in every country of
the world and is regarded as the very
first indication of several sweeping
changes that are to be introduced in
the new code of Plus X, which has en-
gagged the labors of the most learned
body of ecclesiastical authorities in the
Catholic church for the last four years,
and which eventually will cover the
entire field of church legislation.
