CATHOLIC SOCIETY WOMEN DIS
AGREE,

Litigation between Miss Margaret c.
Lavelle, sister of Mgr LaVelle, and the
/ supreme board of regents of the Daugh-
ters of, Isabella was begun in the SUI
preme court recently to determine
whether Miss Lavelle shall continue
to hold her position as state regent of
the society or be removed on the charge
/ of dominating the organization.
| The Daughters of Isabella is COM
posed of upward of 100000 women. scat
tered throughout the United States,
$500 of whom are in New York state.
The president is Miss Mary L. McKer-
nan of Utica. where the headquarters
of the society are located.
Two actions were begun before Judge
Vernon NJ. Davis. The first was an APP
plication on the part of the supreme
regent for an order against Miss La
yele to show cause Why she should not
be expelled from the organization. Miss
Lavelle's suit was for a permanent in
junction restraining the Daughters of
Isabella from taking any such action.
1t seems from the affidavits that last
December Miss LaVelle was tried by the
supreme board of regents for exceeding
her authority, found guilty and fined
$780, the alleged cost of the trial This
verdict carried with il recommends
punished by losing hermembership in
the order. Alleged interference with the
work of a district court" was the spe-
office complaint, but Miss Lavelles
friends assert that certain ambitious
women in the society arc jealous of her
successful administration.
Henry W. Herbert, counsel for Miss
Lavelle contended that his client was
well within her rights in settling dis
putes. Counsel, for the Daughters of
Isabella took the opposite view and
Judge Davis reserved decision. He is
sued a temporary injunction pending
the final disposition of the case, which
protected Miss Lavelle.
The result is that Judge Bowling, in
the supreme court, has granted a per-
manent injunction restraining the ma
tional order of the Daughters of Isa-
bella from interfering with Margaret
G.. Lavelle, sister of Mgr. Lavelle, in
the performance Of her duties as state
regent of the organization and as a
member of the supreme board of di-
rectors.
Judge Bowling decided that Miss La
velle was within her rights in every
thing she had done as state regent.

CWritten for Rose Leaves.)
Hail, the May-of months the Queen:
Earth is decked in fairest sheen,
Trees put on their tend'rest green,
For the Month of Mary.
Ho! the promise of the Spring:
Give us audience while we sing:
Music hath a sweeter ring
When it sounds for Mary.
Hearts are solaced while we raise
Voices in Our Lady's praise,
Softest cadence, sweetest lays,
Fit the praise of Mary.
With Her colours gaily digit,
Blue of Heaven. pure and bright:
Vowed are we to walk Alright
In the steps of Mary.
Doth our future hold in store
Earthly bliss or sorrows sore,
With US, for us eVermore
Beats the Heart of Mary
DolourS seven have pierced Her heart,
Sin alone has left no smart,
In Her sorrows have part
All those named of Mary

Don't rip and tear,
And dance and swear.
And fill the air with jangle

FELL FAR BUT ALIGHTED EASY.
lola Water Boy Tumbled Thirty Five
Feet and saved His Life.

lola, Kan, Aug. 27.-Had the concrete
base under wall of the Lumbermen's
Portland Cement plant at Carlyle been
level instead of sloping. Myron Jones,
a 17-year-old boy who lives mile east
of Carlyle, would in all probability be
cold in death and not lying in st.
Johns hospital seriously injured but
with good chances of recovery.
Young Jones is water boy for the
construction crew on the cement plant.
He was carrying water On a platform,
35 feet above the ground when in some
manner he lost his balance and fell off,
alighting on a concrete base. Workmen
rushed to the PROSTATE boy expecting
to find him dead. He was unconscious
but still alive. A cot was secured, the
boy placed on 1t and brought to the
hospital.
An examination showed that his
right leg was broken just above the
knee, his left arm broken at the wrist
and his head bruised, resulting in
slight conclusion. The attending physi-
clan states that had the concrete base
been fat, instead of inclined, thus
checking the force of fall death would
have been almost instantaneous. AS it
is. Jones is in a serious conditions but
will likely recover.

Laborers Quit Work After Ghost Has
Failed to Walk.

| Bonner Springs, Kan, Aug 21.-The
| big cement plant that is the life of this
| town is shut down and 200 men are
out of employment because they decid-
ed not to work longer without pay. The
employees say it has been two months
since the ghost walked with real mon
ey. When payday came time checks
were issued. Finally the stores declined
to cash these or accept them In pay
ment for merchandise.
The last time money was promised
was Monday morning 1t didn't come.
At IL O'Clock Tuesday morning John
Gremer, chief engineer. pulled lever
that controlled the power of every part
of the plant and which furnished the
power to run the street car line of the
town. A moment later wheels had
ceased revolving and the 200 men had
quit work
The plant was working night and day.
There appeared to be a market for
every bit of the cement that could be
derstand. July 20 came with another
payday, but with no pay. August ar
rived, no money The men. all of whom
work II hours a day decided that it was
about time for some money to come
1t was promised from the main offices
of the company in the Long building,
in Kansas City, but that was all. Two
more weeks went by, but again only
the pay checks without the money were
issued. Then the promises were made
again. but no money came. The book
keeper went to Kansas City to get
money to pay the men and returned
without it. Then the men decided to
quit work
The company is now about $4,000 be-
hind on its payrolls and the reason is
not to be learned from the men for
they do not know. Every bit of the
cement that has been made found
market One of the idle ones said:
'.They worked us night and day. And
that's one of the bad parts OF this
business 1t wouldn't pc so bad if we
hadn't worked so hard for our money,
but labor in a cement plant isn't any
cinch."

Erie, Kan. Aug. 27.-After check
ing up for two days the Katy travel
ing auditor and the representative of
the American Express Company found
that the amount of money taken by
Sears, when he decamped, was
$454.50 in cash and two money or
ders and a skeleton ticket, making
the whole amount something near
$500.
Sears. since his disappearance. has
never been heard of as he left no
trace whatever The skeleton ticket
which he had with him is proba bly,
the cause of this, as he could fill it
out for any destination he wanted to,
routing it over any road or system
of roads he desired
1t is now thought that Sears has
been operating in much the same
manner all over this section of the
United States He would enter a rail-
road office as relief agent collect all
outstanding debts to the company and
then disappear with the cash. The
detectives of various roads are on his
trail.
