Inter- Mountain Catholic. The REFORM

They denied that marriage was indis-
soluble. and took away it's sacramento
character. The evil consequences, as
time went on. became greater. and to-
day we witness the sad results. and
perhaps nowhere more than in our
own country Divested of its sanctity
and reduced TO a mere civil contra at,
which may be annulled at any time,
marriage has come down to the same
low place that it was in pagan times.
The sad consequences resulting from
this state of affairs may be seen in
the reports of the daily press of the
numberless divorces in every state in
the union, the rema carriages of divorced
persons, the Discrimination Of the young

fathers and mothers as ordained by
God. But why this dissemination to
marry and aversion to family? Many
causes may be assigned for both. but
the great cause is that Christian prin-
ciples and religious sentiments are dy-
ing out in the hearts of the masses OF
the people. Why do so many mar
riases prove a failure? Because they

SO the grown up child must actually

many cases intimately associate with

1t is a strange phenomena of hui
man life. If the boy could only &C.
cept and act upon the words of the
father. what an advantage he would
have. How much time would be
saved and how much would the years
of usefulness be heightened, but ac-
tually human life is something like
/ TINS. Three years of gurgling. ten
years of childhood. ten years of fool
lshness. and ten years Of vanity, and
then perhaps few years left to work
in And this is the history of the
best individuals. \ great many never
pass the grade of foolishness If we
could but accept the experience of
others. these periods of foolishness
and vanity might be dispensed with
and thus a. considerable portion of life
made available for usefulness. The
difference between the successful man
and others is to be found largely in
his superior ability to be governed bv
the experience of others. He is the
man who does not have to fail in
order to learn that failure is not on
the road to success. He is the man
who in early life concludes that the
habits and associations which have
caused the destruction Of others are
sure to cause his own. This ability
to be governed by the advice and ex-
perience of others is the greatest ele-
ment in the struggle for success that
one can possess. Experience is a great
teacher but the teacher could be dis
pensed with II We would only make
use OF the experience of others.

"REBELLY" BELFAST.

Belfast seems in fair way to be
regaining its old reputation. 4 little
more than a hundred years ago it was
called "rebelly" Belfast although its
population then is now was largely
Protestant. At that time there was a
strong national feeling in what is now
the commercial city of Ireland. The
Nationalist feeling was as strong
among Presbyterians as among the
Catholics. Belfast fought in those
days against English rule Before the
last century was half over new
feeling came over the city and it &C
quired the reputation of being a 10y
alist stronghold II became the head
quarters of Orangeism and Ulster
ism. 1t was the one city in all Ire
land which refused to give O'Connell
hearing. This change of feeling was
largely due to the fact that Belfast
prospered under alien rule. while the
rest of Ireland was in poverty.
1t seems now that the very indus
tries which made the city prosperous
have drawn the very class OF people
who are not Loyalist at all. Belfast
does not send to Parliament an un-
broken line Of Tories as it used to,
but now and again elects NATIONAL
list. This revival of national feeling
extends to Professionals as we'll as
Catholics. and the city is in fair
way to become once more the leader
in the fight for nationality.
Being an Industrial center. a large
portion of the population is made up
of working men. A short while ago a
strike was inaugurated which had for
its demand shorter hours and higher
wages. In Ireland the police are taken
from that class which England has
always found safe and relied upon.
At first the police in Belfast did their
work in the strike now in progress.
but they soon became infected with
w" SAi'ne Sp1iil anu demanded IOr
themselves shorter hours and higher
wages. The government was COM
PEELED to call in troops and for the first
time in a generation blood flowed i'm
Belfast.
One feature about the situation that
differs from former troubles in that
city is that large portion of the
Protestant population are working
hand in hand with their Catholic
neighbors in fighting against agents
of castle government. The present
strike promises to do a great deal to-
ward wiping out the last vestige of
religious intolerance that exists in a
city where it was formerly so bitter.
If it does result in causing Presby-
terians and Methodists to join with
Catholics in electing Nationalist men,
bers of Parliament and takes it's place
with Dublin Cork and Limerick in
demanding self-government for Ire
land one obstacle to home rule will
be removed. English governments
have always fallen back upon the ar
gunlent that it was not safe to grant
home rule to Ireland for the reason
that the Protestant minority would
he at the mercy of the Catholic ma
jority. If Belfast and the rest of the
North of Ireland is now ready to Join
with the Nationalists, it will be much
easier for England home-rulers to
grant Irish demands,

One Of the most hopeful signs of the
times in the north of Ireland is the
disintegration of the Orangemen. says
the Inter Mountain Catholic. The
demonstrations in Belfast and other
towns in the north this year were
smaller than ever before, and espe-
cially significant was the strength
shown by the inde pendent Orange or
ders. This organization. which is an
off, shoot from the parent order. is as
aggressively Protestant as it's parent.
but it is as aggressively Irish as the
old order is English. The independent
order on July II passed resolutions
declaring that castle government was
an anachronism and was expensive and
useless to Ireland The independents

themselves Home Rulers, but they are

The wheat harvest commenced
in the Devils Lake region Friday
and Saturday of last week, in
some of the early fields, and is
now in progress. The blight re-
ferred to in Saturdays Inter-
Ocean is quite insignificant in
the very earliest pieces. 1t is
more prevalent in the fields that
will be ready for the sickle the
latter part of this week and the
first of next. The late-sown
grain is reported in good condi-
ton and if the weather is COM
paritively dry for the next ten
days the crop will be first class.
1t is the general belief that the
crop Will average twenty to
twenty-five bushels per acre.
Some fields will yield thirty to
thirty-two bushels, if there are
no unfavorable conditions. There
is reason to believe that t h e
price for the new wheat will not
be below 70 cents.

hero of the. hour out. -
Drayman Wallace was pre-
eminently a star at third. Like
a 2-year-old he fielded his. posi-
ton, and had many long fouls to
his credit.
For the Leans, two knights of
the grip formed the battery dur
ing the early stages of the game.
Bodkins, who travels for aGrand
Forks candy house made a sweet
looking pitcher and handled the
sphere and delivered spit balls
to the utter confusion of the
Fats. Later Felix Reuter- oc-
cupied the position of slab art
list. His delivery was indeed as
mystefying as his predecessors,
and it is currently whispered
about that he has since received
several communications from
Mugsy McGraw wishing to sign
him with the Giants for next
season. 1t is believed on good
authority, however, that Felix
will not accept the proposition,
as he states that ball playing is
too strenuous a life.
Page, a grocery house drum
mer, sat behind the chest pro-
tector and the big NIT. His
catching was of the gilt edged
ariety, he being credited with
only fifteen passed balls.
Dean Jacobson was the hard
est working man on the team.
His advice to the other players
was gratuitous, timely and fore
ible. and had his words of knowl-
edge been needed and absorbed
the final score would have been
vastly different, which way we
know not.
Steele played first base during
the first inning, but he retired
out among the weeds in far left
field subsequently, as Captain
Reuter- was convinced that he
could fill the latter position with
much more honor and glory to
himself. At first Steele had no
trouble stopping the high ones,
but experienced much difficulty
in gathering in the low balls
and most of them were low. AT
one time, while running bases
and near the third sack, he fell
into a veritable Rip Van Wrinkle
sleep, and Umpire Dawson had
to call him out three times be-
fore he woke up.

the center field garden and kept
moving the weeds and grass at
a great rate. At bat he moved

The preceding afternoon had
been most humid and the tired
and enervated population had
retired with the idea that they
would try to snatch a few mo-
ments slumber if possible. At
ter the storm had passed the at
mosphere cooled off perceptably
and a good nights rest was en-
joyed.
However, the next day, Fri

Another travelling man named
Venerable demonstrated his line
of goods by jumping into the
harness and playing a game Of
exceeding brilliancy. He chang
ed positions with Steele after the
first inning and held down the
first sack in a way which would
have reflected great credit on
Doc Sweetland or Dan Bren-
nan.

and conquering the small inno-
cent looking sphere and driving
it out over the distant tree tops.
Dependon Cowley took up a
claim on third base. However,
owing to a severe attack of sun
stroke, Cowley failed to prove
up and his claim was contested
by Peterson who puts up sar-~
dimes for Mann & Son and plays,
the licorice in the Eagle band. q
The game was umpired by
Luther Dawson, the ice man..
Luther had an eagle eye, only it
was a little off focus owing to
the great difference in architec-
ture between Bell and Steele. Of
all the participants who had de-
veloped Charlie-horse in diff
ferent parts of their anatomy
the subsequent morning, Luther
was in the worst shape, for, the
way he tore around the field
from base to base, calling an out
every time with unerring &C.
curacy, was a caution.
The Eagle band was present
in full ensemble and diccoursed
delightful martial music, much
to the inspiration Of the players.

Doll-Bower.

Following is clipping from the
Riverside Press, CAL, Aug. %,
which will probably interest many
of our Lancaster and Fennimore
readers:
At 8 o'clock in the evening of
aug. %, there was solemnized at the
home of the brides mother the
nuptlals of Miss Isabelle K. Bower
and Wilbur Doll. White and green
were effectively used in the decora-
ton of the Bower residence at 456
Sixth street. Magnolia blossoms.
white roses, oleanders and pepper
boughs furnished decorative mater
liza. Portlers separating the parlors
were composed of graceful pepper
boughs and white oleanders, and
the bride and groom stood in a
bower Of peppers and magnolia
blossoms while the marriage service
was read by Rev. E. J. Inwood,
pastor of the First Methodist church.
The wedding march was played by
Mrs. Inwood.
The bride was attended by her sis
ter, Miss Cora M. Bower, and her
brother, III. w. Bower, officiated as
best man. The bride was charming
~ gowned in white silk and carried
q bouquet of white roses. The maid
of honor wore a frock of clear
white orgapdie.
Refreshments were served after
congratulations had been given, and
during the evening Mrs. Loud of
Los Angeles, rendered some delight
full piano solos.
The bride is well and favorably
known here, and the groom is a
popular commercial traveller. Mr..
and Mrs. Doll, after a few days
stay at the South ern California
beach resorts will leave for New
York, where they will make their
future home.

The Dangerous KY.

Attention is called to the mis-
chievous activity of the house fly as
a spreader of disease.
He collects the germs of typhoid
fever and consumption and spreads
them upon food and drink. When
small pox last visited Milwaukee a
number of cases of the disease were
attributed to the misch1evous activi-
ty of the flies.
Screens which keep flies out OF
houses contribute therefore not only
to comfort but also to health. 1t is
possible that d1phtheria and scarlet
fever and cerebro- spinal meningitis
and various forms of blood poison
ing are conveyed by the house fly.
The federation of the little pest
which was practiced by klnd-hearted
Uncle Toby is not to be commended.
Modern knowledge recognizes him
as not only a nuisance, but a source
of danger. He is to be kept out of
the house and killed by sticky pa
per or by any other contr1vance
which can be devised to get the
better of him. No quarter to the
fly!
