For the first time in the history of
st. Mary's Roman Catholic church
just across the Kansas-M Missouri line,
WON unattended service Sunday morn
ing without that part of a woman's
apparel most criticised by other wo-

More than twenty women went
through their devotions with barred

injunction issued a week ago by the
aged priest, Father Anton Kuhis, who
declared that Merry Widow" hats.
had no place in the church of God,
and that they did not go we'll with
the crucifix.
He asked that any woman who wore
a hat measuring more than two feet
in diameter to leave it with the sex
ton before entering church.
Following these instructions, about
half cord of merry Widows" were
stacked up in the anteroom of the
church, while their owners listened
with barred heads to the reading of
the Litany. No word of complaint
was heard as the women filed silent

ANOTHER VISITING
FLEET ORGANIZING

WASHINGTON, D. c., April IT.
Especial Another fleet is being or
ganized to visit European nations
whose invitations for the original bat
tleships fleet to visit them had to be
declined. A third fleet is also in
prospect, to be kept in Atlantic wa
ters in reserve.
The new visiting squadron has
as its nucleus the battleships Maine
and Alabama, which will be detached
from the Pacific Fleet Immediately af-
ter the review in San Francisco next
month. These two vessels will
start homeward by way of the Suez
Canal in advance of the sailing of
the fleet, their places being taken by
the new battleships Wisconsin and
Nebraskan
The plan now is to have the Maine
and Alabama meet in Mediterranean
waters by the new battleships Missis-
sippi, Idaho, and New Hampshire, with
the scout Salem, Chester, and Biz
mingham, and possibly the armored
cruisers North Carolina and Montana
Calls then will be made at Italian,
French, Spanish and British ports
In home waters the Iowa an d In
diana and the cruiser Brooklyn will
be in readiness. The Columbia. Min
neapolis, Des Moines, Dubuque, Pad
ucah, Marietta, Dolphin, and May

MUNICE, IND, April 17-(Spe-
ciaD years ago Henry Barton
treasurer of this city, went out of Of
fee short in his accounts for large
sum. His bondsmen paid part of the
shortage and he removed to Los
Angeles, Cal. where he has since liv-
ed with his family.
Yesterday the last dollar owned
by Barton to the city was paid by
his daughter, Marguerite, who is
stenographer in Los Angeles. She
has been making payments of $25 at
a time on the Indebtedness for years,
and the receipt sent her today is in
full and clears her father.
Munice officials were inclined long
ago to cancel the debt, but the young
woman refused to consider the offer,
saying she wanted to pay the obliga-
ton in full and thus free her father
from the stain of embezzlement.
