REV. FATHER JOHN K. LARKIN,
Pastor of st. Bridgid's Church, is Ap-
pointed U. s. Chaplain at the Union
Soldiers Home at Johnson City.

The many friends of Father John X
Larkin, pastor of st. Bridgid'S church,
were surprised to learn from an au-
nouncement in Wednesdays morning
paper that he had been appointed
through the instrumentality of Rt
Rev. Bishop Byrne, United States
Chaplain at the Union Soldiers Home
at Johnson City, the extreme east end
of the state. The duties are not ardu.
GUS and the chaplain has time for sudy-
ing any particular line of learning for
which he may have fancy or talent.
Father Larkin was born in Comfy
Limerick, Ireland, on January /, 1858
He was educated in Maynooth, Ooun,
ty of Kildare, and came to America in
1887 as professor of theology at EN-,
mettsburg, Md. In 1889 he came to
Memphis and was associated with Fa.
Veale as assistant pastor of st. Pat
rick's Church, coming here from Col
umbus, Ohio.
Ia 1894 he was appointed pastor Of
st. Bridgid's Church. During his
term as pastor he has given sbecial at
tention to his parish school. He has
the satisfaction in surrendering his
connection with the school to know
that ST. Bridgid's parish school has the
reputation amongst educators Of this
city as one of the best graded schools
in the city, training its pupils in a
manner which fits them to stand an
examination in their grades before any

MAKING THIMRLES.

Thimbles are such a common ar
ticle that scarcely anyone stops to
think of their construction.
They are ordinarily made of iron,
steel, silver or gold; the metal
pressed into dies of all sizes, then
punched, tempered and polished aft
erward Some are made of brass and
washed with a white metal, but their
lasting quality is of but short dura-
ton.
The very best thimbles are said to
be made in Paris and it is said that
nowhere else is the same variety con-
structed To give the proper
shape, a disk of sheet iron is
punched into the desired form, then
the hollows for the needle are made.
The thimble is entirely finished and
then by very peculiar process is
converted into fnely-tempered steel.
1t is covered with gold-leaf, lined,
and will last for years, and when
worn the gold can be renewed.

cases have been reported to the
health office. In July, 1905, there
were nine deaths.
Tuberculosis, however, has
reaped a harvest of 81 deaths to
date, or one more than twice as
many as in the same month in
1906. The health physicians do
not believe that there has been
more than a normal number of
cases but those who were in the
advanced stages could not with
stand the weather vicissituoes,
their strength failed rapidly and

Asylum Scandal,

Columbus, o., July 27,-Gov-
ernor Harris will make a thorough
investigation of the scandal that
has cropped out at the Athens
State Hospital, in which it is
claimed that a female inmate is
about to become a mother.
''The first / was told of it"
said the Governor to-day, "was
about a month ago. At that time

inquiries when l was at the insti-
tuition some days ago. DR.. Han
sen, the Superintendent, says that
it is true, that the woman in en-
ciente, but cannot determine the

ported to her family as soon as

formal complaint only what / have
heard. DR.. Hansen is of the opin-
ion that an inmate is responsible
for the paternity"
The Governor claims that the
case of the woman is of peculiar
nature, that she is an epileptic,
and is otherwise deficient in her
senses. Because of the mild ma
ture of her case she has been a
trusty, and had the freedom of
much of the institution.
1t is known that Governor Har-
lis knew of the case at his visit

worried over a solution of the
matter.

WARM ARCTIC REGIONS.

The interesting fact that it may
be warmer in the arctic regions than
in Britain was illustrated by tele-
gram received recently from from
so, more than 200 miles within the
arctic circle. 1t was therein stated
that the temperature was 20 degrees
in the shade In London about the
same time it was Sc degrees. And
in the earlier part of the year, there
we're occasions when the tempera-
ture of Iceland was higher than that
of Britain. A still more remark
able state of affairs occurs when
that strange warm wind known as
the fahn blows down from the ice
and snow in Greenland. Then in
midwintetr, during the long arctic
night, extensive thaws may occur,
and for several consecutive days it
may be warmer in Northern Green
land than in southern France.

Dow Tax Makes 400 Less
Saloons this Year.

Figures just given out by State
Auditor Guilbert show that the
year of 1907 has brought 400
less applications for licenses to
sell intoxicants under the Dow tax
than in 1906. This means that
on the total year the state will
lose $409, 1000, even if all con-
tinued during the four quarters
in which payments are due, but
since the highest tax was inaugra-
ted there has been a falling off
with every payment.
Hamilton county shows a loss of
238 saloons; Franklin, 80; Cuya-
hoga county gained 81 and Lucus
Al. There was no change In

INDIAN TYPES OF BEAUTY
In Mexico the Aborlalne Is Seen al
His 5est-Far Superior to His
Northern Brother.

The beauty of Indian women is
one of the charms of Mexico.
In the capital, where the Indian
has degenerated by contact with the
whites, by extreme poverty and
menial service, it is less to be re-
marked than in the smaller towns
and in the country.
But the beautiful faces one takes
in memory away from Mexico are
those of Indian women. Fine eyes
are universal and, what one hardly
expects, fine features, according to
Caucasian standards; broad brows,
straight noses, we'll formed mouths
and chins full but not gross or
heavy. The expression is very gen
orally intelligent and often one is
struck, both in Indian men and wom-
en-, with the nobility and refinement
Of the countenance.
One frequently sees types among
the poems that seem to belong to
some highly civilized ancient caste,
an Egyptian priest of royal blood, a
Roman centurion, an Aztec einpe-
ror. The women are gently lovely
where they are beautiful, and the
men at their best in carriage, in
manners and in countenance are
strikingly like the very advanced
product of civilization.
In the north the ''noble red man"
has chiefly been found in our poetry
and romance. At their highest they
possessed only the savage virtues.
Here in mid-Mexico, even after four
centuries of subjection, the Indian
is plainly of better make, of higher
ethnic development, of infinitely
greater possibilities. 1t is a far cry
from the Apache to the Aztec.
