THROWN FIFTY'FEET
AND KILLED BY CAR
stageers on Track, and Motorman,
Though Immediately Reversing
His Power, Is Unable to
Avert Tragedy

While attempting to cross in front of
rapidly moving car on East First
street, between Lorena and Indiana
streets. shortly after 6 o'clock last
night, Mrs Maria Miranda, 40 years old,
wife of Frank Miranda, laborer liv-
ing at Hodge and Princeton streets,
was struck by outbound car No. 263 Of
the First street line and thrown fifty
feet, sustaining fatal injuries.
The car was In charge of Conductor
J. Sanstrom and Motorman T. f. Price.
The place where the woman was struck
Is at the foot of q grade. The car was
running at good rate of speed and
had just passed the bottom of the
grade when the woman staggered on the
track about two car lengths ahead.
The motorman reversed the power, but
the car failed to respond.
Patrolman Robert A. Gardner arrived
shortly after the accident and placed
the injured woman on am inbound car,
which was met by the police ambulance.
She was taken to the receiving hospi-
tai, where the surgeons found she had
sustained a basal fracture of the skull
and was badly bruised about the body.
She was unconscious and bleeding from
her wounds. She did not recover con-
sciousness and died at $3.50 o'clock.
Patrolman Stelzriede, who investi-
gated the accident, says the story of
the motorman is to the effect that Mrs.
Miranda was carrying two bottles of
beer and some tobacco, and staggered
on the track in front of the car; that
she acted in an irresponsible manner,
and evidently was unaware of the APP
proach of the car
There were ten passengers on the car
when the accident happened.
The body was taken to the under
taking establishment of Bresee Bros,
where AN inquest will be held.

ALLEGES TRANSFER
INDUCED BY FRAUD
Says She Decided Real Estate in Ex-

$500

Alleging George Cunningham, by

the Hermosa Mining company and q
promise to pay $500 more, Miss Agnes
ID. Terry of The Palms, represented by
Attorneys j. w. Kemp and b. A. Stur-
geon, began a suit against Cunning
ham in the superior court yesterday,
Miss Terry said Cunningham was in
troduced in 1904 to her mother, herself
and other members of the family as a
wealthy man, and, relying on his sup
posed business judgment, they followed
his suggestions in several matters
November Is, she says, the family
needed money. In return for the deed
to the San Diego property Cunningham
gave the mining stock and $500 cash.
The stock, said Miss Terry, was repre-
sented to be worth 81 a share, and Cum
bingham, she says, advised her to hold
it for ninety days. By that time he
said she would receive dividends and
would eventually become wealthy, Miss
Terry affirms.
Miss Terry's brother said Cunning
ham exhibited a number or gold mug
gets and a watch fob made of gold
which, he said, were taken from the

more loyal American. Religion adds
moral sanction to patriotism.
patriotism stirs the honorable pride
of every true man. 1t is duty spring.
ing from our obligations as members
of society and religion proscribes 1t as
a precept binding us in conscience. Man
resents imputation against his loyalty
to country as against his very man
hood Religious prejudice is the most
frequent cause of aspersions against
ones patriotism. Prejudice ignores all
reason and is as much the result OF
ignorance as of mistaken zeal"
Bishop Conaty proceeded to state the
teaching of the Catholic church with
regard to duty to civil government, and
said that allegiance is due to the
church in things spiritual. but to ones
country in things temporal.
1.-The laws of the church, its COM
mandments and prohibitions are con-
cerned about and confined to things
appertaining directly or indirectly to
the spiritual order. The church does
not interfere with our political duties,
except as 1t teaches us conscientious
fidelity to all that concerns the welfare
of our fellowmen. Tt forbids what al
ready is forbidden by the law of God,
and it exacts that which is already
demanded"
