OPPOSES MIXED MARRIAGES
Utica Priest Will Not Perform Them
in the Future.
DIR. Lynch Says Archbishop Has Ah-
sOIuteIy Forbidden Such Unions
I'm Canada-Praises His Course.

Utica, n. y, Dec. 2.-The Right Rev.
Mon. J. S. NJ. Lynch. pastor vf St.
Johns Roman Catholic Church IN this
city, prompted by the recent rapid growth
in Utica OF marriages between Catholics
and Protestants. Is out with a statement
in which he paints Woeful picture of
the results Of so-called mixed mar
riages." AS a result of the pastors state
ments ii is understood a number of such
marriages arranged in st. Johns parish
after the holidays VIII not take place.
Rev. DR.. Lynch says:
THE first cause of mixed marriages Is
the decay Of faith among Catholics. There
are three great evils in this country. The
first is race suicide, the second is divorce.
and the third mixed marriages, and they
all spring from decay of faith. In the
United States there are 2,0O0OOO homes
without children. Just think of it.
If Catholics had the right and lively
faith they would know that marriage was
instituted by God Almighty for having
children. That is the primary object of
marriage. II they enter that relation and
refuse TO have children they are living in
sin.
Now take the figures from St. John
parish. In the last twenty-five years
there have been in this parish sn9
marriages, and Of these, Us of them were
mixed marriages. OF these 17S marriages
suppose there should be two children
from each.
i don't know why there should not
be ten or fifteen, because that is what
marriages are for, but suppose there
were only two children from each. thar
would be 3J6, and, measured by stats
tics, it shows 225 children lost TO the
faith in st. Johns Church, Utica. and the
probability is that there were MANY
more
THE archbishop has absolutely forbid
den all mixed marriages in Canada. II
is 70 be hoped that the bishops of the
United States will take action to prevent
any In this country. During the past
quarter Of century 1 have never per-
formed a mixed marriage, and l never in
tend to."
Dr. Lynch's statement has created vide
comment in this city among all religious

Dehornins /. Rhinocero..

A rhinoceros which lived in the Lon.
don zoo was troubled by its horn, which
grew down In front of its mouth, SO
that only with difficulty could 1t eat OF
drink. To save Its life the keeper de
cided on amputation. The horn Of a
rhinoceros is not horn at all, but an
accumulation of hair and skin which
has hardened and become cemented to-
gether by some gummy substance The
owner of this one had very touchy
temper and was not easily approached.
Its keeper, however, decided to try
what he could do. For some days 1t
required all his skill to persuade the
beast to come to the front of the cage
and put Its horn through. Then for
some days he stroked the horn, much
to the animals disgust at first al
though later 1t seemed to like 1t. When
It found he meant no harm it let him
take the horn in his left hand and then
with the right initiate the motion of
saw across 1t. When this had been
done some time and the rhinoceros no
longer minded it, piece of wood was
held in the right hand, and at last,
when even this no longer worried the
animal, real saw was brought In and
the horn cut off without the slightest
remonstrance from the owner of it.

HIS TAcTFUL WAY.

What reason did he give for moi
putting it where you said?" he asked
her.

There was something about Its being

she met her husband with a beaming
face. Hes fixed everything as we
wanted it, Lewis" she announced. HE
took my orders like lamb. Whatever
did you say to him? 1t worked like

him; said l knew from his voice that
he understood his business, and all
that. Then l told him confdenttally
that the other fellow they sent out
