TOWN REVISES
BOOK OF "THIRSTS''
BarkeeperS and Cops COllabO-
rate With Editors on
Whl'S Who in
BOOzdOm

UNIONTOWN, Pa, Aug. 2--"The
Book OF Thirsts." the Who's Who Of
Boozeology in Uniontown, will appear
in a revised and unabridged edition.
II is said the book will be much larg-
er and contain the names Of several
leading lights Of the town whose
drinks have been shut of in the pub
lie places by the Thirst Committee.
The bar policemen of the nine no.
tells are collaborating with the drink
ers and putting the ban on the old
"soaks."
The book is supposed to be revised
each year, but the men whose duty
Il is TO keep the book up to date
have been negligent, 1t is alleged, and
on good authority it is said the re-
vising was last done twelve years
ago.
In going over the list the censors
found the names of many who have
taken their last drink i'm this land,
the names of some who when they
found their drinks shut OFF babe fare
well 20 the wicked stun and are now
treading paths OF rectitude. There
were, however, many old familiar
names.
Il has leaked out that over half Of
the old names on the book have been
stricken OF and will not appear in
the new book. But the additions to
the list will more than make up for
the names left of. .......
Until the new book is issued (only
to members Of the Hotel-keepers' AS
sociation), there is an air OF uncer-
tainty, and many a young hopeful
will blush when his order for "a lit
tie rye" is unheeded by the man with
the white apron.
The bar patrolmen are employed at
each of the nine hotels. They are
paid by the hotel-keepers, but are
under the jurisdiction of the Chief OF
Police of Uniontown.

desirable Citizen.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-The special
board Of inquiry, which hears depor-
tation cases on Ellis Island, post
poned until tomorrow the hearing for
Bishop Paolo Miralgia, Of the Cath
Ole Independent Church of Rome, -
who came here 10 months ago and
was arrested In Springfield, Mass, as
an undesirable alien.
The bishop, who is a strapping big
man above six feet, speaking fluent
English, declared today that a jour
nalist enemy, who is editor Of an Ital-
ian newspaper in this city, has stirred
up the prosecution against him, and
that a Brooklyn priest had helped II
along by writing to the immigration
authorities that the bishop had been
communicated because he forged
the names of professors in the Uni
versity of Paris to fake degrees he
had sold to students.
The case against him, he declared,
rested on his conviction in Italy for
libel and Islander when he was editor
of a newspaper in Piancenza. He had
been sentenced TO a months impris-
onment and fined a few hundred dol
lars. But that was 10 years ago, and
after 10 years the italian law alb
solves one from all faint Of crimi-
nality.

address, that certain councils have
opened grill rooms in connection with
their halls. We had hoped that there
we're not enough of these reports to
call for the action of the board. but
when an archbishop and bishop beg
us to take action against such sales.
! IL is time for us to warn councils to
show them how inconsistent this is
with the spirit and even letter Of the
! orders law.
How justify the sale of liquor in a
council hall in the face of our rule
refusing liquor dealers as members
Think. too, Of the danger TO young
Catholic men II they get their first
glass---the so-called friendly glass-in
one of our halls.
