LETS BUILD 4 PARK

OlIlCe bIlc improvements nave been made on the spring at the upper end of Front street by May or Williamson, making that a very popular place, as well as thing of usefulness for all, 1t has been sug- gested that 1t would be a good thing to make a small park there.
 The Journal thinks the idea a good one, and we giveit our hearty indorsement. A small strip of land along the hillside could possibly be leased from J. I. Sturdivant, and no doubt the railroad company would gladly lease a portion of their right-of-way to be used for this purpose, as 1t has been the policy of the railroad company to assist in any projects to build parks or beautify plots of land along their property at many towns in the state where the people would show that they were interested in the matter.
 After the removal of the seed house and stockpen opposite the spring, and the clearing away of
 
 the small growth of timber west of the spring, a small park could be made there that would be a beauty spot, by a little eleveling and grading, the planting of the prop CT shrubbery and flowers and building a small amount of walk ways.
 Some may say this is a very un- favorable spot to build a park, but listen: Confederate Park, one of the most beautiful in the city of Memphis, is built upon a spot that was once a bog and a dump ing ground and a yeritable eyesore. A little work in filling, grading and planting shrubbery has made it a beauty spot, and it is now the admiration of all who see 1t.
 The location near the spring Is one that every passerby would see, and if properly beautifed, aside from the pleasure it would afford our own people, 1t would be an advertisement for Newark that would bear fruit every day in the year. Strangers passing on the trains could not help being favor ably impressed, and in this way 1t would result in good for the town.
 In many towns the ladies take the lead in matters of this kind and The Journal is going to sug- gest that the ladies of Newark hold meeting and organize a Civ ic Improvement League for the purpose of pushing this matter. Then let's ask the city council to select a park commissioner who shall act in conjunction with the mayor, and then let's go to work and build park.
 When the movement is properly organized and set on foot The Journal will contribute five dollars toward a fund to build the park. Who will be next? Lets hear from you.

Honor Dead Priest.

Nearly the entire 10000 population
of New Rochelle, representing almost
every creed, lined the streets on JAN
10 as the body Of Rev. Joseph Maxcy,
assistant rector of the Church of the
Blessed Sacrament, was taken from
the church to the railroad station. The
body was escorted by detail of SOL
diers of the regular army at Fort
Slocum, with the full army band Of
the post, and delegations from New
Rochelle council, knights of Columbus,
New Rochelle; Rochelle lodge, Benevo-
lent and Protective Order of Elks, and
the Holy Name society. The inter-
ment was in Calvary cemetery. Thou
sands viewed the body, which lay in
state in the church. The Slocum
requiem mass was attended by more
than one hundred priests. The mass
was sung by Father McNulty, Rev.
James Flood was sub-deacon. The
three were classmates of Father
Maxcy in st. Joseph's seminary.

SCIENCE AND SEX.

For some time speculation has cen
tered around the question OF what &C.
ton the French Academy of Science
would take in the matter Of admitting
Madam Marie Curie, the great Catho.
lie scientist, to membership in that Sc.
lect group. The prevailing opinion
was that Madam Curie would be the
first woman scientist to whom the
honor Of membership in the French
Academy of Science would fall. But
the academmy has rejected her, not
because of her lack of achievement in
scientific research work; for millions
know of Madam Curie's discovery who
do not know the name of single
member of the French academy; not
because there was sufficient number
Of other scientists who ranked even
equally with her-not for any scientific
or even sane reason but because the
Creator made her a woman.
The French academy is an organiza,
ton which presumably aims at foster.
ing scientific investigation. What
justification it has for establishing a
relationship between sex and the ad'
vancement of science only a member
Of the French academy can say. If
genius is not to receive the same rec.
ognition when clothed in the flesh of
q woman as when it is displayed by a
man, it is hard to understand on what
grounds the act of discriminating is
TO be justified.
Madam Curie has unquestionably
done more for the advancement OF
science than any other person in he1
generation. She has revolutionized
scientific concepts of matter and re
vealed wonders in fields of investiga
ton where no one before her ever pen
etrated. She has stimulated scientific
research in a department that will
undoubtedly yield still greater won
ders in the future. Her name will be
associated in years to come with those
Of the greatest scientists of history.
The fact that the French academy
has not honored Madam Curie by con
ferring membership on her will not
detract from her renoun. Her fame
as scientist does not need bolsterine
up by associating with recognized
school. She possessed merits which
were more than sufficient to Justify
the academy in admitting her. Of hel
it might truly be said that rank in
stead of giving her consequence would
be adorned by her.

GODS OWN WAY.
A Story Which illustrates How the
Bad Often Prosper While the Good

Suffer.
l am led to these desultory thoughts
as little drama OF real life was un-
folded to my gaze today. These are
the unadorned facts. Two brothers
reared in the faith now stand apart in
the world as the world goes. One
tempered with his faith until practic-
ally he has lost it. He prospered and
is prospecting, stands high in his com.
munity as a citizen, liberal, shrewd
and popular, says writer in the Cath
Ole Columbian Record. The other
brother chung to his faith and yet his
life has been sad series Of sorrow,
disappointment and reverses; but
though the burden was heavy, it has
little circle of intimate friends he is
admired and liked. His family-the
few God has left him, love him and he
said recently:
"Of all the blows and storms God
has seen fit to send me the keenest
and hardest to bear came a few days
; ago. l have often tried to induce my
brother to become reconciled to the
church of his boyhood, of his ances-
! tors, but without avail have never
asked him for favor, though he is
noted as being always ready to help
his fellow-man. needed just bit
OF lift the other day and confidently
went to him, only to be rebuked
! with the words: You had all the
chances 1 had to make good but you
did not and paid more attention to
your church than you did to business,
now let that church help YOU"
This is dark page from an actual
reality in life, but with Christian
heroism the good man added: But
I will NOT cease to pray for him. -
The tide of human affairs may turn
some day and places be changed and
he who now thinks the success of life
depended upon cutting loose from the
anchor of faith, may drift on the shoals
and rocks of adversely and be glad
to grasp the lifeline as it is thrown
out from Peters bark-for
"Her crew is faithful as it was
Two thousand years ago."

which in the future may be the cause
for int oo1ohrotiNn in

which in the future may be the cause
for an international celebration in
which the nations of the entire uni
verse may have share, says a writer
in the Catholic Union and Times. The
subject of universal peace looms large
ly before the public mind and notable
utterances of notable men on tie sub
ject are being everywhere chronicled.
Readers throughout the continent have
just noted the views of President Taft
on the subject, and amongst the speak
ers on this side of the line on the same
topic is his Lordship Bishop IHallon Of
London, who in his own public-spirited
manner lately gave out through the
Canadian club of London, whom he
addressed, some we'll prepared inform
alton and practical ideas on the sub
ject in hand.
Bishop Fallon seems to have built
up his address before the Canadian
club largely on his knowledge of hui
man nature, and the cure for discord
he finds in the upbuilding Of the
majesty of the law of the land, and of
the law Of God, as given in the SER
mon on the Mount and from the top
of Mount Sinai. "You and l go to our
homes" said his lordship, and we
feel secure. We go to bed and dream
of the blessings of peace, and we do
SO because we know that the majesty
of the law, clothed in blue serge and
brass buttons land carry a club, is
marching under our windows. That
makes for peace" And the pith of the
| address seems to be in the following,
men must be taught the love of JUS
tice, the difference between thine and
mine, not to be so ready to take what
belongs to him as to give the other
man his own; to be fair, to be just,
to be honest, to respect authority, and
to be noble. Teach your individual to
keep the law. Educate him to be law
abiding in his personal life-obeying
the laws of God and the nation, and
international peace will come. Teach
him to reverence and respect every
man, woman and child he comes in
contact with Teach him to reverence
and respect the rights of men of diff
ferent nations, and then 1 say we will
enter into an era of peace human
which is but part of the divine"

His memory is tenacious. He recalled
interesting events OF many different
periods in his life, and not only events,
but persons also. He exhibits man.
ner that is worthy of his more health

have been edited by his sentiment, re-
joicing in the advancement of religion

ENGLISH MARYS
Will Contribute Toward a Present for
Queen Mary's Coronation.

Will Contribute toward a present tor
Queen Mary's Coronation.
That is a pretty plan conceived by
the Warehouses of Butte that all the
Marys throughout the British empire
should contribute to a coronation gift
for Queen Mary. Every Mary Of the
British empire, be she old or young,
lowly or exalted, is invited to sub
scribe to a coronation gift to Queen
Mary, which is to be presented on the
occasion of the greatest moment of
her life, says the Catholic Columbian
The gift may be as small as a penny
and in no case must it exceed SIS. A list
Ct all the contributors will be kept,
but not the amount given by each.
Contributions must be made before
May /. 1t will then be decided
whether the gift shall take the form
of a personal ornament to be worn
by the queen or that of a sum of
money, to be placed at her majesty's
disposal to allocate to whatever pur-
pose she may determine.
Nobody knows how many Marys
there are in the empire-except that
it is safe to say that the bearers of
no other name exceed them in num-
Der. In lone Butte and Cumbrae,
where Lady Butte sent out circu-
lar to her own people, instant replies
were received from 1900 Marys.
Mary is a favorite name in Eng
land, which itself was once called
"Marys Dowry," and it is especially
fitting that Queen Mary, who is a
truly fine example of womanhood,
should be so honored in her own land
Ivy the namesakes of the Queen of
Heaven to whom the fair domain
was once dedicated.

A DESIRABLE MEASURE.

A bill which should be beneficial to
wonen and children wage-earners, il it
becomes law in its present form, was
introduced into the Minnesota legisla-
ture this week. The st. Paul Trades
Assembly has Endorsed it and the
Trades Assembly Of this city is expect
ed to approve it at the next meeting.
The bill in question is the result of
seeks for the betterment of conditions
surrounding women and children toll
ers. It's purpose is Ito establish in
dustrial boards for the protection Of
wage-earning women and minors" BY
it the state board of arbitration would
be authorized to create industrial
boards which would have for their
members representatives of employers
and employees. These boards would act
on any matter referred to them by tho
governor, the legislature or the state
board of arbitration, and in addition
they would keep in touch with the con-
Gitions of women and minors in their
respective trades. They would, fur
thermore, be authorized to safeguard
the health and morals of the workers
and to fix such q minimum wage as the
eXigencies of the work warranted.
A clause of the bill allows employ
ers two months in which to register
objections to rulings of the board con.
corning the matter of minimum
wage. The differences must be adjust
ed within four months from the time
the board has announced its ruling
when the state board of arbitration
will issue an order requiring compll-
ance on the part Of those concerned.
Failure of an employer to recognize
an order is punishable by a fine OF
imprisonment or both. Under this
provision any worker to whom an act
applied could bring complaint to tho
board to have it investigate into the
conditions and secure for him his
rights.
Rev. John A. Ryan of ST. Paul semin-
airy, whose work in the field of
economics has brought him distinction,
is interested in the bill. He has ap-
peared before the st. Paul assembly
to explain it and urge Its support.
It is now up to the people to take
an interest in this needed measure

The dill of Tara,

The famous Hill of Tara, once de-
scribed by James Bryce, British Am
bassador in Washington, as "the most
interesting and authentic monument
of early civilization in northwestern
Europe" is about to be sold, says a
report from Dublin.
Today Tara Hill looks much like
any other hill, but on it once stood
the royal palace of the Ard Righs, or
High Kings, Of Ireland for many CEN
turtles. 1t was there while a great
national assembly was being held that
st. Patrick converted the Ard RICH
Leary to Christianity, an event which
is celebrated in many old Gaelic
poems.
The glories of the place came to an
end in a curious way. The Ard Righ,
grandson or great grandson Of Leary,
sent his representative out through
the provinces to collect the usual an
nual tribute. This particular repre-
sentative of the High King was lit
tie bit injudicious, for when he ar
rived at the palace Of King Guare of
Connaught he insisted on entering it
with his spea: across his body under
his arms.
The spear was too long, or the door
was too narrow, to admit Of entrance
in this way. So in the name Of the
Ard Righ he ordered the door to be
pulled down so that he could enter in
the way he desired. King Gua.e re-
fused Hence the feud that Ultimately
laid Tara low.
The clerics clampioned the cause of
King Guare, and in due tune deputa-
ton of them went to Tara, and one
of them solemnly cursed the hill, with
the result that it became gradually de-
serted, that the immense palace fell
into ruins and that it ceased to be the
seat of the High Kings Of Ireland.
