MASONIC ADDRESS
One of the Best Lectures Ever De.
livered in Monroe City.

Several weeks ago Monroe Lodge
No. Ga invited Rev. B. D. Weeks to
deliver a lecture on Masonry. Be-
fore consulting either Hicks or
DeVoe as to the kind of weather
that would be on tap on Washing
tons birthday, February %, was
selected as the date for the lecture
In spite of the storm a large crowd
of Masons and invited guests we're
present to hear the lecture and all
were well paid for their coming.
The Mission of Masonry was the
subject and it was ably, carefully,
thOughtfully, scholarly handled.
And while there may have been no
seismic disturbances as prophesied
by Hicks, this lecture will have an
influence for good as long as the
Grand Architect of the Universe
presideS in the East. Masonry has
to answer for no human blood. Her
mission is to do good to all. The
lecture by Rev. Weeks was good in
every respect.
Then the banquet at the Maddox
Hotel was enjoyed by about 100
people, as many who were at the
lecture went to their homes after
the lecture All in all it was 6
good evening"

There is kind of corn grown in
South America, the kernels OF
which are from two to four times
the size of the kernels of our native
corn. There is almost an absence
of oil, however. which makes the
grain very starchy. 1t is said that
the ears are from six to eight-rOwed

HOLY ROSARY

The Holy Rosary church is rapid
ly becoming not only a thing of

delicate and exquisite altarS, and
now the fourteen pictures. Jesus

tom, you know. the bitterness an the cruelty of life, an it's to you Christ wants to show the beauty an glory an the light When you an me Who'Ve fallen rise again, we're bigger men an women than if we'd never sinned at all.
 Don't you think know? Don't you think I've borne it all myself? Oh, listen! Sometimes we find our sin-our terrible sin-is what. we love most in the world. It seems as if we couldn't tear it off-it's flesh of our flesh an soul of our soul. But, ohi when we've killed it with our own two hands, when we've conquered in that awful fight, when we've nailed our bleedin' heart to the cross itself-why, it seems as if all the millions who have fought and conquered since time began stretch out their arms to us in pity Those men and women down the river of the ages-they l1now-they under stand. Because, like you an me- palces an found the sunlight stream in there.
 Oh! any of you that's listening here to-night-that perhaps I'll never meet again till at the judgment bar O God remember it's love that saves the world. They say it's strong as death know-oh! I know it's strong as life. Praying) Oh, Christ, who some think can never feel the secrets in a woman's soul-help all of US that need you noW-change our wickedness with yer own hearts blood-keep us pure an clean an strong-forever an ever -O Lamb of God, who takest away the sins of the world.

CHICKEN THIEF
 CONFESSES CRIME
Man Who Took Jackman's Fowl Was Partial Also to Onions and Beehives.

Jacob ,Sheirer, who is employed at the American Graphophone Cos factory living near the Acid Works in Fair field, who was arersted yesterday by the Bridgeport police for stealing chickens from John M. Jackman of Stratfleld avenue early Sunday morn ing has admitted his guilt to Captain Arnold. Other articles stolen from sev- eral people were found in the house by the detectives. He was taken to Fairfield today with Albert Rush meyer, 35S Bostwick avenue, who Sheirer alleged, was with him at the stealing. They will be tried before Jus tice Bacon Wakeman. AS was told in last nights Farmer Captain G. H. Arnold and Detective George Fox, ac- companied by MT. Jackman in his automobile, went to the Sheirer home.
 Fearing that Captain Arnold would be recognized he remained in the car while Detective Fox went into the house. He represented himself as a possible purchaser of the property and asked to be shown the rooms. Mrs. Sheirer objected, but finally yielded when Detective Fox said that he had the permission of the owner of the property.
 In an upstairs room he found the carpenters tools owned by and stolen from Charles Richards, carpenter of 572 Dewey street. MT. Richards iden- tified them at police headquarters to- day. They were stolen September A.
 Mrs. Sheirer denied that her husband was working. She said he was on the East Side. Detective Fox, however. located him in the American Grapho- phone Co.,,
 By this time Captain Arnold had gone to the back yard. Upon seeing him the woman exclaimed, 70, I know you,'' and became very much alarmed.
 Besides the tools, B chickens were found and four crates of onions belong ing to a MT. Wilson who lives in Fair field He identified his vegetables

 WITH METAL DISKS
DISKS

After several weeks detective work James Burnham, an agent for the Coleman Hardware Co.,, If Chicago, dealers in penny-in-the-slot peanut machines, caused the arrest of two small boys yesterday, for putting pieces of metal the size of a penny into the machines instead of using coin of the realm. From four machines over 200 of the metal pieces have been taken. The boys. with their parents. were taken before Superintendent Birming- ham, last night, and were warned that a repetition of the offence would be severely dealt with. The boys said they. bought the metal pieces from Harris Ruderman, junNsRdealer, who forfeited a bond in the Criminal su- perior court upon @ charge of theft and fled to New Jersey.
