WIFE A FROST

Ellensburg, Wash, Dee. SD.
H. Westcott, the divorce king" OF
Kittitas county, has again come out
first best in his matrimonial bouts.
Judge Ralph Kaufman in the supe-
rior court dismissed a suit for main
tenance brought by Westcott's fourth
wife, a bride of two weeks. In doing
so Judge Kaufman took occasion to
pay his respects to people who en-
gage in uncertain matrimonial ven-
lures which have their origin in
newspaper advertisements.
Westcott is a pioneer of Kittitas
county whose business career has
been as varied as his matrimonial
career. For years he conducted a
grocery store here, until it is said
one of his brides got the best Of his
cash register, and he sued for di-
vorce, which he secured. He branch
ed out into other lines of business.

near the city, but in the anticipation
of another turn at welded bliss he
traded his ranch for house in this

Bert Kennedy, Accused of Stabbing
Greenwald, Held Pending Re-
suit of Victims Injuries.

Pending some change in the condi-
tion Of Matt Greenwald, who is still
in Gilchrist's hospital suffering from
stab wounds in his abdomen, Bert
Kennedy is held in the county Jail.
His trial was first set for Monday,
then adjourned to Wednesday, and
is now postponed until the extent Of
Greenwald's injuries are ascertain-
ed.
Kennedy is very reticent about the
whole affair, as also is Greenwald.
Other workmen on the bridge have
very little to say of the affair." 1t
is claimed by some that in the event
of his recovery Greenwald will not
testify against Kennedy.
The police, working with the pros
ecuting attorney and the sherief's
Office, are making thorough inves-
tigation of the affair, and all the
circumstances will be brought ont
at the hearing, when it finally comes
off.

To those of YOU who have
aided me in the pursuit of elu-
siVe news, l say Thank You "
We've had good times TO-
gether, and l shall miss the
pleasant associations of the
past few months.
Some people in Wenatchee
may not have appreciated This
papers method of handling
the news in the past. The cri1-
icism has been raised that the
Daily World printed too
much" the smallpox, the bad
meat, the bad water, the ave-
nue. Improvement, the Colam-
bia street disgrace, etc.-we
have been variously told
should not be mentioned.
We answer all this by say
ing that a newspapers func-
ton is to print the news-if
: you don't want your mama in
print-be good.
The Wenatchee public is pc
culiar.
1t is composed Of people
from everywhere-and what
one likes in a paper another
weeps over
That's why, after all, it's up
to the judgment of the man
with the pencil.
When news is suppressed, a
paper is short-changing its
subscribers in not giving them
what they pay for.
What stings you is a "swell
dish" to the other fellow, and
what you chuckle over may
make another vince.
That's human nature; that's
newspaper work-telling all
the world about the other fei-
low.
Since my advent on the
World my one effort has been
to give Wenatchee ALL the
news, and in conclusion, wish
again TO thank those citizens,
public officials, policemen. and
loafers who have helped ii

might have been a serious runaway
occurred in the upper part of the
city. Charles Cgilvie had taken an

POPE AGAINST MODERNISM
ENCYCLICAL DECLARES THAT 1T
LEADS TO ATHEISM.
and Faithful of Church Not to
Be Allowed to Read Publications
of Cult.

Rome, Sept. 1.-THE Observatory
Romano, organ of the Vatican, issueo
an important encyclical of Pope Plus
X on Modernism which really is a
completion of his recent syllabus. II
is regarded as a crushing discourage
ment to advanced thought in the Cath
Ole church.
The document sets forth that mod
ernism is a serious danger to the
church, refers in detail to the various
features Of modernism, condemns it as
dangerous in philosophy, faith. theol-
ogy, history, criticism and reforms,
and arrives at the conclusion that
modernism is a synthesis of all heresy,
and must logically lead to atheism.
The ~encyc'ical makes the following
provisions:
First-The teaching of philosophy,
positive theology, &C, is to be carried
on in the church, schools, and univer-
stiles but in a catholic spirit.
Second-Modernists are to be re
moved from professorships and the di-
rec ion Of educational institutions.
Third-The clergy and faithful are
not to be allowed to read modernist
publications.
Fourth-A committee OF censorship
is to- be established ia every diocese
to pass upon the publications which
the c'ergy and faithful shall be per,
mitted to read.
Fifth-The. encyclical of the late
Pope Leo XIII, prohibiting the clergy
from assuming the direction of publ,
cations without their bishops permits
sion, and providing for supervision of
the work of ecclesiastical writer's, IS
confirmed.
Sixth-Eccle .astical congresses, ex-
cept on rare occasions, are prohibited.
Seventh-A council is to be consti-
tuted in every diocese to combat mod
ern errors,

BLOCK SIGNAL CONTROL.
Interstate Commerce Board Making
Careful Inspection of Devices.

Washington, d. c., Sept. 13.-One of
the most important branches of the In
terestate Commerce commission is the
Black Signal and Train Control board,
which is operating under a joint reso-
luton adopted by the last congress.
An appropriation of $4,000 was made
by congress to carry into effect the
purposes Of the resolution. The indi-
cations are that an additional appro-
priation will be necessary in order to
fully mees the requirements of con
gress for inform, ton on the ubject of
train control.
Hundreds of safety devices already
have been submitted to the board by
inventors throughout the world and
additional ones are being received al
most daily. The board has found itself
compelled to reject 175 of these inven.
tons because they do not come within
the scope of the law. OF the others
submitted, lis now are under techli
cal examination with a view to deter.
mining whether or not they are worthy
of physical tests. Two hundred other
devices are being made the subjects
of correspondence, but the models
have not been presented to the board
Thus far, no device has been passed
upon favorably by the board and none
viii be passed until it has been sub
iected to a severe practical test.
