Special Correspondence to The Press
CHICAGO, June 2.-Do you
think that at 100 years you will be
able to see without spectacles, hum
merry roundelay, enjoy a funny
yarn and laugh as loudly as the
end man at a minstrel show?
Canon J. C. Moynihan of the Ro-
man Catholic church, 1913 39th st .
does all of these. He is vigorous
and active, he sleeps we'll and his
appetite is good. His laugh is like
the first welcome peal of summer
thunder.
He is rugged and deep chested,
with face both strong and kindly.
His temples are fringed with gray
hair, but the top of his head is as
bald and shiny as billiard ball.
His brows are grizzed and beetling
over eyes that twinkle and twinkle
again in the effervescence of con-
stantly bubbling good humor.
His actions are those of man of
20. He says he feels 20. He looks
it. He has the genuine Irish wit,
and a remarkably keen perception.
He fires his merry quip at you and
settles back in keen enjoyment to
watch it's effect. When you grasp
the point you look to see him chuck
ling at you with his shaggy brows
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1908-06-02

masking the keenest of laughing
eyes.
But it's his big, round, mans size
laughs that wins you. It's like the
popular drama, it works up to the
climax by degrees, each enjoyable.
First, he settles back to give it
full play. A chuckle deep in his
wrinkled throat changes into a CUR
gle that is followed by wheeze.
The mouth opens wide that no par
ticle of mirth shall be restrained,
and the comes the explosion. His
half closed eyes are thin, scintillat-
ing Sits, his body shakes like jel-
ly, his head wags from side to side,
and his can thumps the floor
1t is the laugh of a century in
veriest truth.
Canon Moynihan was born in
Kanturk. County Cork, Ireland,
May 3, 1903. He came to America
70 years ago and for many years
after his admission to the priest
hood was stationed in New Orleans.
Later he was rector of a parish In
Bradford. Ill. At one time he was
spoken of as a possible bishop of
New Orleans. His age, however.

the family of Mrs. Rosina O'Neil,
whom he has known since 1848.

SOCIALISTS INTENDED
NO INSULT

OROFINO, Idaho, June 2.-Red
decorations which the socialists
had used for their county cOnven-
ton today in Odd Fellows hall
caused some excitement last night.
Members of the order served notice
that the red streamers were taken
as an insult to the national colors
and would not be permitted in the
hall. A report that the socialists
had torn down the flag started the
agitation, but this was found to be
untrue. and the socialists readily
agreed, in the interests of peace, to
dispense with any feature that
might be considered Jisagreeable.
There are about 200 delegates in
the convention.

Seattle and the Indians meet at

this year no team has the sign on
