administered Baptism lie the foundations of an ancient church, St. Sylvester's, which contained the ashes of Pope Gel estine, who commissioned St. Patrick to preach the gospel to the people of Ire land
 For over a quarter of a century the idea of building a church dedicated under the name of St. Patrick has actively pos sessed the mind and the desire of the Irish Catholics all over the world The work, which was initiated 23 years ago and carried on for time, was on &C., count of several causes suspended.

KNOX TO ExPL.
$4,000 PAYMENT
Probers Want to Know Why
Money Was Paid to Hale.
MISSING VOUCHER FOUND

Paper Drawn In Payment For Por-
trait Found on Floor In State De-
partment.
Washington, June IA subpoena
for Secretary of State Knox to appear
and explain the payment to Frederick
Hale, son of former Senator Eugene
Hale, OF $4,000 from the Canadian
boundary fund of the state depart
ment, was issued by the committee on
expenditures in the state depar tment.
The money is said to have been
paid on the sole authority OF Mr..
KnoX's approval on piece of paper
attached to an unsigned voucher.
The disclosure as to the Hale pay
ment was only one of series OF sur
prises before the committee. Thomas
Morrison, disbursing clerk of the state
department., declared that the missing
voucher for $2450 drawn in payment
of a portrait of former Secretary Day,
and of which the artist, Albert Rosen-
thai, of Philadelphia, received only
$3.50, had been found by a messenger
on the floor of his Office
How it got there he had no knowl-
edge, but it was his impression that
some one interested in the matter was
responsible.
The voucher, as found on the floor,
appeared complete, Mr.. Morrison de-
clared, and contained the former chief
clerk, Michaels, explanation Of how

Folks Past Fifty
Must Use 'Casl9 9ets'
What glasses are to weak eyes, Cas-
carets are to weak bowels. Old
people need them and the need
is only natural.

You old people-Cascarets are
particularly for you. You who don t
exercise as much as you need to.
You who like the easy chair. You
whose steps are slow, and whose
muscles are less elastic. You must
realize that your bowels have also
become less active.
Don't regard Cascarets as physic.
They stimulate the bowels just as
some foods will do; just as exer-
else would do, if you took enough
of it. They are not harsh, like
salts and cathartics. The help
which they give to weak bowels is
just as natural and gentle as the
spur of youth.
When eyes lgrow dim. you help
them. Do the same with the bowels
when age makes them less active.
There is nothing more important.
Costive bowels mean the decayins
food is clogging there. And the
ducts of the bowels suck its poisons
into the blood. You can't feel well
until this is corrected. But do it
gently-not with a bowel irritant.
And do it regularly-one Cascaret
a day. Coax the weak bowels
don't drive them. Just try 10
cent box of Cascarets.

no such explanation upon it. The

has been contended that the $1,000 was
spent in secret service work.

NO BOXING RULES IN EFFECT
New York Law Now Makes Physical
Fitness Imperative.

New York, Aug. 29.-The regula-
tions drawn up by the newly or
ganized State Boxing Commission to
govern boxing contests in New York
State went into effect today. The
rules are of the most stringent char
acter and are calculated to place the
sport on a higher plane than it has
ever been before. Physical fitness
of the participants in boxing bouts
is to be insisted upon, betting is to
be discouraged, liquors must. not be
sold in places where contests are in
progress, and care is to be exercised
in the selection of club officials. Sun
day exhibitions cannot be held un-
der the new rules, and no person
under eighteen years of age is to be
allowed to participate in any boxing
contest. No decisions are to be rem
dered except in amateur tourna-
ments held under the rules of the
Amateur Athletic Union.
