A SOCIAL CRISIS.
Archbishop Glennon Denounces
 Organized Charities.

Chicago. April 23.-Organized charity was denounced as a mere bid for notoriety, and the average philanthropist was described as a modern pharisee last night by Most Rev John J. Glennon, archbishop or St Louis. The prelate's arraign- ment was made in lecture under tho auspices of the House of the Good Shepherd and before an audience or 2,500 persons.
 "It is a recognized fact that we fast are reaching a social crisis, said Archbishop Glennon, with our millionaires on one hand and the pauper on the other. When that day comes the philanthropist sitting in his upholstered chair will not arise to the occasion. He will be told that it is not lecture that is wanted but that it is bread.
 "There are to-day philanthropists so-called-who believe that by giving the people libraries that they might study out present day philoso- phy, they are accomplishing great good. And there are others who SD6uu Illlt III oOtidl oCbtiCihNiit work or lecturing on the child prob lem.
 Constantly they seek notoriety Let them go on giving away their libraries and establishing their so- eial settlements, but l want you to understand that philanthropy di- vorced from Christ is not charity.
 And I say my friends that the philosophy taught in your schools and universities to-day is just as brutal as it is repugnant. This phil osophy of evolution emanating from the brain of Darwin and Spencer, makes for brutality ard retards progress. Whatsis the use of strug- gling if there is nothing to be at tained? Where is there an appear ance of charity in this system by which the strong succeeded and the weak perish?"

M'MANUS BIG JOB
Work Rushing on ihe Walervllle
 Road Project

Edward McManus is pushing his contract on Waterville and Homer streets. A visit to the place will con- vince anybody that he has not let grass grow under his feet since he took hold of that job. He has about snyenty-five men yielding pick and shoyels and dozen or more teams hauling dirt and stone from one place to another. "We have them here, black and white," remarked the con- tractor by way of introduction to few friends who called upon him late yesterday afterHeon, pointing to the army of workers. Mir McManus says when for the first few days after starting the contract he was pestered with fellows who wanted to try what they could do, but it is different now and he expects to be able to do better by men who mean business. He told Superintendent Morris of the depart ment of charities to send him all the able bodied men he is caring for and he will give them an opportunity to earn enough to maintain themselves and their families. MT McManus has a big project on his hands, but he is full of courage and feels confident that he will come out of it all right. It is the biggest job of street making ever undertaken in Waterbury, but af- ter it is finished, the old death trap under the railroad is closed and the new one opened everybody will breathe easier, especially residents of Watervills, who has been looking for ward to this improvement for many years.

 7S South Main st. Telephone 1884

l Baylor always accompanying her, but not as her husband, until finally she bought a house on Walnut street, which, she said, Baylor want ed her to place in his name.
 While she was away touring in 1904 Baylor collected the rents and raised them, spent portion and with | the remainder paid some bills. He also, she said, did away with many of her household effects, such as a sewing machine and her baby car riages.
 She said she made more money at her stage work than she did in teach ing music and doing washing. Her salary on the stage ran from $50 to $350 a week. She toured the west in 1907 and when she got home to Walnut street Baylor was cooking meat The look she cast at the enough to cook a side of beef. She explained that an object she had in going west was to squelCh her for mer manager, Abby, and ! woman whom he was touring under her name. She said Abby robbed her and when she threatened the law this was his revenge. Baylor wanted to go with her on this western trip and she objected, because he would spoil her plans. Baylor was never her manager, she said. When she got home she had "a big talk" with him and he left the house. Yet while she was away in 1904 she wrote him every week and sent money and things, but bis letters were always disagreeable, complain ing of the adopted children, and she generally tore them up without read ing them. She said she wished she had all the money she sent him. She tried to keep on the right side of him so that he would be kind to the children, but he was not. When she got home she had to pay SAP inter- est which he should have paid on the house.
 Her attorney asked her the na- ture of her act on the stage and she replied that God gave her a power to do good and she tried to do good, but many black eye she got from Baylor, and many a black eye he gave Louise, one of the children. Louise went to the Gilbert home with black eye. She said the mother of the alleged twins was Maggie Hill, that her own name be- fore going through the ceremony with Baylor was Emery, and her name was Dixey Jarrett. Baylor borrowed s6 from her to buy the wedding ring and the date Of the cer- emony was engraved on it.
 Counsel tried to show that she had lost that ring in boarding house in Hartford, but she said the ring she lost was one she got from the Czar of Russia while touring Europe. She was only twelve years of age she said, when she was first married. Her first husband was killed In 1887 she thought. She never considered herself anything to Baylor, and often" she said, ''I told him so."
 Decision was reserved.

GOT TOOLS IN MERIDEN.
Burglars Broke Into Beaver Lake
 Ice Company's Houses.

Meriden, April Burglars who blew open a safe in Forestville early Wednesday morning used tools that were taken from the Beaver Lake Ice company's houses in the north ern section of Meriden. The theft from the two ice houses was re- ported to the local police Tuesday.
 The New Britain Herald's Plain vile correspondent said:
 Constable Brennan of Forestville was in town this morning. looking for the two cracksmen who blew up the safe at the Burns Bros sa. loon, in that town early this morn ing.
 ''The burglars are thought to be professionals as the job was done to perfection. They gained entrance to the place about 3 o'clock this morning through a window which they pried open. Then they drilled a hole in the safe door, filled cracks with soap and with the aid of nitro glycerine blew on the door. Richard Burns, the proprietor. and his bar tender. who sleep up stairs, were awakened by the explosion. They threw open the window just in time to see the two cracksmen running away. Mir Burns fired several shots from revolver at the escaping bur glars but did not succeed in drop ping either of them.
 An examination of the safe showed that the burglars only got a bunch of papers, which were worthless to them. and the empty cash drawer for their trouble"

Pindall Loses In Custer Suit.

Judge F. W Winfield of the second divisOn of the Circuit Court Thursday rendered his opinion in the State Board of Charitable Institutions custer suit, deciding that the governor of Ar. kansas, though he has the power to ap- point. has not the right To remove from office members of the board. The suit was brought by the four new ap- pointees to the board who were ap- pointed by Governor riHdaH to succeed four members of the board who had not served their full terms. and was for the purpose of having the old mem. bers removed from their seats, which they declined to vacate The new ap- pointees are Walter Bruce, Aylmer Flenniken. \ L. Hayes and l.. C. Par sons. The old members and the ones whom Judge Winfield has decided are the rightful members of the board are E. C. Matlock, ]. l.. Davis. (. E. Cruce and T j. Williamson.
 James Stevenson, attorney for the aspiring members of the board, was present in the court room when Judge Winfield announced his decision and immediately filed his petition for an appeal 10 the Supreme Court, which was granted.
 The case was tried before Judge Winfield two weeks ago with Judge Robert Lea and Chancellor ] NJ, Mar tineau on the bench, at Judge Win fields invitation. as associate judges. The whole question al issue is as to the right of the governor to remove members of the board from their office without q just and reasonable cause. His power to appoint the new mem bers was not questioned The attor- ney for the old members was Charles Jacobson.

The true blue Democrats compromised by allowing the C | r. to name two election judges out of every three in each ward and precinct. and demanding of them a fair count. The (. l.

Water Supply Giving Out.

The box spring, one mile northeast of Siloam Springs. and which sup plies the city with water. is said to be changing it's course, consequently, the water supply is decreasing. Many years ago when the officers of the city first conceived the idea of appro- priating the water for city purposes, a large stone wall was built around the place where the water bubbles out. leaving only one vent. A pipe line was connected with this and the water is delivered in the city by the natural fall of the ground. Now it seems the water has made itself an other outlet and steps will be taken To repair the break. as the water sup ply is inadequate for the demand
