The Man Behind the Pillow.

Bards have praised in song and lay men
whose office is to slay,
Men who go unfiinching where their foe
men Turk:
But the man behind the plow is here. too.
7 trow.
He's the man who keeps them while they
do the work
oh, the man behind the pillow, with the
sun-tan on his brow.
His soul honor Is the labor he has done;
But to shoot their brethren down Is the
glory and the crown
OF million men who stand behind the
gun.
1t is very brave no doubt. with the
enemy in rOut,
To follow war-hags leading on before.
But the man who stays at home tilling
the reluctant loan.
Is the man who keeps the man who goes
to, war.
1t Is valorous to go where the warlike
trumpetS blow
And the deadly shrapnel on its course Is
sped.
But it seems to me this man follows out
a nobler plan
Than the man who knocks his brother in
the head!
Then. remember. when you hear drums
and trumpets' martial cheer,
That upon some little farm the work is
done
N simple humdrum way day succeed
ing toilsome day
That supports the man that marches with
the gun.
Yes. apply it further still, all the sharp
ers of world-wi1l,
All the Kings and Princes who exact a
bow,
III the fanfare Of estate on which seryiIe
legions wait,
Ill depend upon the man behind the
plow!

CHRIST DESIRED ONE FOLD
Bishop Scannsll Pleads for Unity in
Service Of God.
JESUS CAME TO FREE MEN
Emphssises Great Fight of Catholic
Church Through the AEes 90
Preserve the Integrity of
Its Doctrines.

Bishop scanneI preached sunday morning
at St. Cecelas procathedral He took Tor
his text the following words from the
gospel Of st. John: And other sheep l
have, which are not of this fold; them
also l must bring, and they shall hear
my voice. and there shall be one fold and
one shepherd"
las we read the new testament" said the
bishop, I'VE cannot help but see the one
thing most desired by God was unity
among His followers. Christ spoke of
desire for one church and not two or three,
or four or five. This wish is clearly eX-
pressed in words which 1 have just quoted
to you from st. John.
The word must does not mean that
God will be compelled by any exterior
force. but rather conveys the idea that He
wishes that there be one fold and one
shepherd. God wished for moral unity
among His followers, which can be found
when the objects OF the intellect and the
will are in agreement among those who
profess the Christian religion.
Christ came to earth to free mankind
from slavery; from moral and intellectual
slavery. Mans intellect is not free If he
believes in error, and his will is not free
IL he desires evil.
In order that all mankind be united, it
is necessary for man to know the truth. II
all men knew the truth. they would all be
united. Disagreement and division is
sign that truth is not present.
The unity in the Catholic church is re-
markable and all societies envy it. 1t
comes through prayer and Gods will and
those outside OF the church, who desire
such union and are unable to get it in
their own societies, say that there must be
something wrong about it. They seek to
point out some violence or evil, but in this
they fail. Look back for 1900 years and
you will see that the Catholic church has
ever been struggling to preserve its unity
Even some Of the church's own children
have tried to destroy the unity which exists
in the society and thought that they could
improve upon the truths handed down by
Christ, but it was necessary for the church
to exclude these wilful members to preserve
its truth Most troubles are caused by sin
rebellion and pride, as was the case with
the fallen angels who said, l will not
obey?
In our relations with those outside Of
the church we should remember that they
have not the gift OF faith. The truth of
the Catholic church is not plain to them,
and we should always be kind, charitable
and patient with them. but we must not
concede a single iota of doctrine, for truth
is indivisible. Be charitable and patient
and assist God in bringing all Of the sheep
into one fold, where they will serve one
master"

DEADWOOD, s. D., April 1.-(SpeciaI)-
1t was in the Black Hills, within ten miles,

wards the Indians stampeded the ponies OF
the. party. few months later Walsh came
to Deadwood and then went to the Two
Bit district. near here, where he started as
a mine carpenter and made his home. He
was then a poor man and worked at his
trade by the day Walsh became associated
with the late Jimmie O'Connell in some
prospects and together they developed, as
their small means would allow, the Anchor
Hill mine In that section. Two years later
Walsh sold out his interest In the property,
receiving a few thousand dollars, and re-
turned to Colorado, where he invested in
mines that gave him his great wealth.
The old cabin that Walsh used for home
while in Galena is still standing and only
year or so ago the kit of carpenters tools
that he used at his work here was for
warded by friends to him in Colorado He
always expressed great love for the Black
Hills apd had for many years been in
