Final Judgment.
Special Correspondence OF Thc star.

Special C~rrcsp-ndence OF The Star.
ROCKVILLE. Md. September Il 1910
Rev. Philip b. Mcclure. pastor % 81.
Marys Catholic Church here. Is very
much of the opinion that the ministers
OF Rockville should he more careful for
whom and under what circumstances they
perform marriage ceremonies. In dis
GUESSING the matter. Father Mcguire de-
clared that tho principal cause OF 80 many
rash marriages Is the too great readiness
OF the minister TO perform the ceremony
He said:
From my observation. the one great
cause Ia Maryland Of rash marriages Is
the 100 great readiness OF the minister TO
perform the ceremony Being the chief
cause. his is the chief blame for unvtse
and thoushtless matrimonial unions.
Minister'S Judgment Final
The minister OF religion in the state
of Maryland is the only official who can
perform the marriage ceremony. His Is
the final Judgment as 10 the fitness or
unfitness of couples for the married state
On whether he will act or not act depends
whether the young people coming 10 him
shall or shall not assume the responsl-
hilities of married life. The position he
occupies in relation to this all important
turn in the life of man or woman Is
paramount TO what this new life means
to them, to society and 10 those most
closely affected by the union
Consequently. the minister who does
not exercise the authority confided IN
him. according To the gravity which the
Importance of the marriage state entails.
sins against not only his once as q
churchman. which should compel him. IN
dependently of any other motive, tn seek
only what is for the hest interests Of
each and all OF Gods people. but he sins
against the trust which the state has
given him.
This community particularly has been
frequently shocked by impr-udent and
reckless exercise of this authority by its
ministers. and forced 10 blush because OF
the odium IL reflects
Suggests a Remedy.
LAS remedy against future repetitions
of such evils. I would suggest that TIE
congregations make their pastors respon-
sible to them for their judgment in spe-
cific cases. which honest pubiic-sentiment
would class as at least Inconsistent with
right thinking.
Ministers having no congregations
should be deprived Of their right TO per-
form marriage. either by the state or by
their church through tire unfrockiEg pro-
cess.
IF non-Cathonc denominations would
compel their ministers 70 exact references
from responsible persons. knowing the
persons desiring to contract marriage. a.
does the Catholic Church compel its
priests I'm all instances. much Of the
scandal revealed by the divorce court
would not obtain, children would not 90

served odium would be removed from the

CONFESSION FAILS
TO WIN PARDON
FOR CONVICT
Utah Prisoner viii Serve Out
Term Notwithstanding Claim
of Another That He Com
mitted the Crime,

IBy Morning journal Special Leased Wirel
Salt Lake, Utah, Dec, So.---it seems
likely that George b. Smith of ogden
will serve out his eight-year sentence
to the Utah penitentiary for emhez-
lement Notwithstanding the confess
sion of Edward Hoovcn In Chicago
yesterday that he committed the crime
of which Smith was convicted.
Hooven was released from the utah
penltentiary last May. He had served
a term for horse stealing. A part OF
me time he was III the hospitas re,
ceiylng treatment for his eyes anu
smith was one of the nurses attend
ing him. When he was paroled smith
loaned him $53 to return to ChicaBo.
Although he insists that ne was
held up and robbed OF the $40, ne
was accused of embezzlement whiie
clerk OF a hotel Smith says that ne
does not think he ever saw HooVen
until he attended him In the prison
hospital. Hooven was known to the
prison officers as user OF drugs,
Smiths record In the penitentiary is
not praiseworthy He has been III
special confinement at least ten times
for violations of prison rules.
