BISHOP HESLIN
Laid Low by the Hand of
Relentless Spectre
Death.

The Right Rev. Thomas Heslin,
fifth Bishop of Natchez. Miss, died
in that city on Wednesday night. He
had been in failing health for some
time and his death was not unex-
pected. II is believed that hard
work and self-imposed tasks led TO
the prelate's death.
Bishop Heslin was born In the
parish of Kiloe, County Longford,
Ireland, in 1847. His parents were
Patrick Heslin and Catherine
Hughes. His primary education be-
gan when he was five years old.
and when he was seven he was con-
firmed. He began his classical
studies at Granard and Moyne.
After several years of preparation
in Ireland the young student came
to the United States and entered the
Catholic seminary at Bouligny, La.
When he had completed his course in
theology and philosophy he was too
young to be ordained, and from 1867
to 1859 he was one of the professors
at jefferson College, Louisiana.
Father Heslin was ordained in the
New Orleans Cathedral in September,
1869. For short time after his
ordination he was one of the as
sistant priests at the New Orleans
Cathedral. Later he served as pas
tor Of st. Michael's church, New
Orleans, and held that office until
he was consecrated Bishop of
Natchez on June Is, 1889.
Since he became Bishop his life
has been arduous in the extreme.
Among the Catholic population of
his diocese are the Choctaw Indians,
and In their behalf Bishop Heslin
made the most Jealous efforts, Sc
curing for them several chapels and
for their education securing the serv-
ices of the Sisters of Mercy.

CHARITY BAZAAR
At Armory Attracts Happy
Crowds Both Day and
Might.

The big bazaar for the benefit of
SITS. sfary and Elizabeth Hospital in
progress at the Armory since
Wednesday will be brought to a
close tonight, and there Is every
reason to believe that quite a hand
some sum will be realized for this
worthy charity. Mayor w. o. Head
was present at the opening and since
then has aided the movement in
every way possible. Col. John II.
Whallen, the chief promoter, and
Judge Herman Cooke, Chairman of
the general committee that had the
bazar in charge, have been untiring
in their work. OF course there are
scores, or rather hundreds, of other
workers. One Is glad to note that
many of the hardest workers are
non-Catholic men and women.

wares in attractive booths. Among
those displays were those of William
Walker, the florist; s. NJ. Ratio &
Company, John G. Lewis. the gro
Gerry department of the Stewart Dry

& Wellendorf. Hirsch Brothers.
krieger Drug Company, Kis-Me Gum
Company and r. Geher & Son. Be
sides there were many tastefully ar
ranged booths for the display of
dolls, novelties and useful and orna-
mental articles. The meals, both
at noon and evening, were substan-
tial, delicious and bountiful. The
special dishes provided for today are
roast shoat. sauer kraut and sweet
potatoes. OF course these will be
backed up with all the necessary
side dishes and deserts.
One of the best money-makers is
the moot court held each evening.
Col. John H. wballen. Col. Jake
-GribbIe and othef good fellows took
turns as presiding Judge. Every
body was arrested and fined. Ii
one pleaded guilty he was let off
with a minimum fine of 81. II he
protested and asked for a Jury he
got It, and incidentally got a fine
Of 50 for delaying the game.
Col. James p. Whallen was seen
buying candy for a three-year-old
child. He was arrested on the
charge of kidnapping and fined a
dollar. DR.. John T. Chawk, the
veterinarian, was fined dollar on
the charge of cruelty to. animals
DR.. John Buschemeyer was fined for
practicing medicine. Sheriff Emler
was soaked 50 for impersonating an
officer. Each night mad its own
court and the offenders were fOyced
to disgorge. This most worthy un-
dertaking reflects the charitable dis
position of the people of Louisville,
and all indications point to a
greater success than the good Sis
ters of Charity and their friends
anticipated.

BASE BALL IN NORTH ADAMS
Deal on to Sell Club to New
Organization.

Organization.
Manager J. II. Flaherty of the
North Adams base ball team stated
Thursday that he was almost sure a
deal would be soon put through
whereby the club would be sold to a
new group of business men who have
about decided TO take over the associ-
atoms five years lease of the park
and conduct the team for the comisg
season. Mr. Flaherty again announ-
ces emphatically that he will not be
connected with the club, to put at
rest all stories to the contrary
on the recent trip to Springfield
Mr.. Flaherty discussed Class ID. Cir
cult in this section with Manager Eel
lar Of the Springfield team and the
latter strongly advised that this step
be taken The Springfield manager
declared that he would use his intiu-
ence with Secretary Farrell to get
protection for the Four City league
clubs and he was of the opinion that
the cost would not be more than $25
apiece.
In pointing out the advantages of a
Glass ID league under the national
protection Manager Cellar stated that,
in addition to making away with the
chance of players jumping, which
proved so disastrous to the Finds last
year, other league clubs would pay
the sum of $500 for new players draft
ed, while II permanent sale result
ed, the clubs in this section would Sc
cure a larger amount. He seemed to
think that this league would prove a
/ farming ground for the Connecticut
circuit and that all sorts of players
could be signed with a smaller pay
roll than was the case last year. OF
course, II the Four City league was
under protection, the teams could not
use players who were on the outs
with other league clubs such as was
the case with Eastman, Robarge and
several others In the circuit last
year.
There is some talk this year OF
forming a league TO embrace several
clubs in Northern Vermont state in
addition 10 the old members of the
\ Four City circuit. Manager Flaherty

sHEEHAN AGAIN FAILS
Attempt to Bring in a New Candidate
Is Reported.

Albany, Feb. AFTER a day of lull
in the con test for Chauncey NJ. De

ate and certainty that on the two
remaining days of this week there
will be a quorum in neither House.
and consequently not in the joint AS
sembly, there is an impression at the
Capitol tonight that next week will
see the last Of the long fight.
From day to day William F. Shee-
han, Charles F. Murphy's candidate
for Senator honors, has STAYED off
the request that must come some day
for him to pull out of the race by
holding out the promise that on the
morrow he would have gained enough
votes to impress the Democratic in
surgents with the futility Of continu-

These promises have failed as regular
ly as they have been made, and In
the balloting today, with thirty-eight
members of the Legislature absent
Mr.. Sheehan still fell short of the re-
quired majority of those present and

VICE PRESIDE NJ
HAD TO BREAK
SENATE TIE
Twice In Order To Pass Ship
Subsidy Bill.
AN UNPRECEDENTED CASE
Thirteen Republican Senators Voted
With the Democrats Against
the Bill.

Washington, Feb. 2.-After two rol
calls, both of which resulted in a tie,
the Senate late this afternoon passed
the Ship Subsidy bill by the deciding
vote of Vice President Sherman. The
first vote came in the Committee Of
the Whole, and the Vice Presidents
vote sent the measure to the open
Senate. The second vote came with
out either side being able to muster
an extra supporter, and the Vice
President again saved the day for the
advocates of the Gallinger measure.
The bill will not pass the House at
this session.
A third deciding vote cast by the
Vice President today forced an ad-
iournment of the Senate on a vote
having direct bearing on the resolu-
ton looking to the election of Sena-
tors by direct vote Of the people.
The vote on the passage of the Sub
sidy bill was 80 to 80, and came after
large number of amendments pro
posed by members Of both parties
had been defeated. The bill actually
passed, was, however, substitute
measure brought in by Senator Gal
linger, including the Pacific lines in
its provisions, as well as those to the
Atlantic ports Of South America
This change won the vote of Mr.
Jones of Washington.
The Democrats voted solidly
against the measure, after vainly try
ing to amend 1t, and they were sup
ported by thirteen Republicans-the
largest number of insurgents and
near-insurgents that has mustered in
a long time against an organization
measure.

WARRANTS ISSUED
FOR ARREST OF
EIGHT MEN
Charged With Causing Explosion
of Dynamite.
MORE DEAD BODIES FOUND
No License Was Granted for Carry.
Ing the Explosive Through Jer-
sey City Streets.

New York, Feb 3.-Five separate
official bodies investigated yesterday
the disastrous dynamite explosion at
Cummunipaw, Jersey City, on We'd
nesday, which killed from "a to 30
and injured at least $50 more and did
almost $1,00O,O0O damage on bottle
sides of the river.
AS a result of the investigations,
warrants charging manslaughter and
criminal negligence were issued just
before midnight last night for the ar
rest of four officials and employees Of
the Central Railroad of New Jersey,
three officials of the e. |. Du Point De
Neumours Powder Company OF 80
West Street to whom the powder was
consigned from the company's mills
and James Healing, owner of the
lighter Katherine W., into which the
dynamite is believed to have been
loaded at the time of the explosion.
In each case two warrants were is.
sued, one charging manslaughter in
yolving criminal negligences, the sec
ond charging violation of a city ordi-
nonce in that no permit had been OBJ
tanned to store or transport explosive
as provided by New Jersey and Jer-
sey City law and ordinance.
The one new fact brought out by
the investigators last night seemed to
be that both the railroad company
and the owners of the lighters on
which the dynamite was being loaded
may have laid themselves liable to
the sole penalty provided by the New
Jersey lava fine of 1925 for failure
to procure a permit from the local In
spector of Combustibles for keeping
so large a quantity of dynamite in
the city. However, owing to the fact
that the dangerous cargo was being
shipped as interstate commerce, a
possible conflict of jurisdiction may
further complcate the matter as far
as the railroad and the powder com
pany are concerned.

DIED IN SURF TO
HIDE HIS THEFT
OF $4,000
Body Of Edward st. John Found
at Long Island.
SHORTAGE THEN DISCOVERED
Was Assistant Treasurer Of the
Westinghouse Company For over
Ten Years.

New York, Feb. Edward st.
John, Assistant Treasurer Of the
Westinghouse Electric and Manufac-
turing Company was found dead in the
surf of East Side Park, Coney Island.
late yesterday afternoon. The police
Of the Coney Island Police Station
pronounced the case one of suicide.
Letters and cards establishing the
dead mans identity were found In his
pockets, and the Westinghouse Com
pany was notified. An examination
of his books showed a shortage which
the officials say will not exceed $780,
600. They attributed his shortage to
speculation in Wall street.
st. John, who was 60 years old and
married, lived at 500 East Nineteenth
Street, Flatbush, Brooklyn. He left
home on Wednesday morning and had
not been seen after his departure.
The body appeared to have been in
the water about twenty-four hours.
Vice President Charles A. Terry Of
the Westinghouse Company said last
night:
"he shortage In Mr.. st. Johns ac-
counts was not discovered until ar
ter the report of his suicide today.
st. John had been In the employ OF
the Westinghouse Company for more
than ten years and for the latter half
of that time had been Assistant
Treasurer He had charge of collec-
tons and disbursements and his ap-
preparation of negotiable securities
which he handled is surprise to all
his associates who regarded him as a
most trust worthy man.
I'VE believe that this must have
been his first weakness and his first
fall. We have not estimated definite
ly the extent Of his shortage, but I do
not believe 1t is over $4,000. He was
bonded only to the extent Of $4,000.
for the cash amounts he handled gem
orally were not large"
