who returned this morning from Mobile.
Ala. Mr.. Haltigan was a delegate from
Washington to the national council OF the
order held In the Alabama city
The delegates with great unanimity
pledged themselves to that end Mr..
Haltigan said. THE convention was a
most harmonious one. The election Of
officers was by unanimous vote in each
instance. 1t vas pleasing to the Wash
ington delegation to note the manner in
which the election of D. ]. Callahan as
national treasurer was accomplished. In
deed. the convention thought SO we'll of it's
selection that it promptly raised the
salary of the national treasurer $500.
Other officers also had their stipends In
creased.
The representations of State Deputy
Thomas J. Donovan and myself as to the
availability of Washington as the con-
vention city. for 1911 were heartily re-
ceived by the delegates. You may be sure
that the Knights of Columbus will do
everything In their power to make the
dedication of the Columbus statue a noted
event in the National Capital
october l. 1911. will see the beginning
OF a grand pilgrimage OF knights from
all parts of the country to the seat Of the
nation here to participate in splendid
tribute to christopher Columbus, the in
spiration Of this order. The state deputy
and past state deputy of a jurisdiction,
the highest officers outside of the ma
n tl,,Ac L>l~
tfonal conventions. The entire national
council will therefore get busy imme-
diately on plans to come to Washington
on the occasion named. There will be a
dual interest in this visit, for at the same
time the knights will doubtless be pre-
pared TO present a check for half mil
Hon dollars to the Catholic University OF

Indications Are for Fine Hunting
in the Fall.

The bird hunting season along the lower
Potomac in Maryland and Virginia is
now but month off and the indications
are that game will be quite plentiful until
it is scared by the hunters and seeks new
pastures. Reports coming from King
George and Westmoreland counties. Va,
state that patridges are numerous and
that rabbits can be seen in numbers Both
the birds and animals seem to know it is
closed season and hunting is pot allowed,
for they are tame enough to come In the
open spots by the side Of the roads and to
remain there until almost driven over
The coming season promises to be a
great one for wild turkeys. as signs of
the birds can be seen all about the heavily
wooded country. 1t Is stated that the in
crease in the quantity of game in the
Virginia counties along the river IS large
ly due to the new game laws. that limit
the quantity of each kind of game that
can be killed. and which is being en-
forced by the game wardens.

wealth was capital and whose passion
was races. He said the world at heart
had grown toward perfection in spirit
and truth.Ntllat the genii of knowledge
now awaits the worlds wish and that
race prejudice was held In check by rea-

After swallowing the liniment the girl
told her mother what she had done.

Hospital reached the house he removed
as much of the l!niment from her stom-
ach as he could, relieving her pain and
decreasing the danger. Ida offered no
explanation of her conduct declining to
discuss her reason for taking the poison.
Adolph Jouvenal father of the girl,
reached home shortly after the poison
had been taken. and went to the hospital
to see her. 1t was told the physicians at
the hospital that Ida had had love at
fair. and that was probably why she
swallowed the poisonous dose.
