Four 1O0-year leases on property on
Third avenue south between Washing
ton and Third street. valued at $1,000
a foot, have been sold to I. Segal by
the Interstate Metal and Manufacture
ing company. The buildings on part
of the property occupy practically a
half block. They were sold with the
leases. All property included in the
deal will be improved as soon as Third
avenue is widened. The property be-
longs to the Hester A. Noble estate,
and had been leased for 100 years by
the Interstate Metal and Manufacture
ing company, operators of a factory
at Third street and Third avenue
south. I. Segal bought the leases from
the Interstate company, intending to
improve the entire quarter block at
future date. Each lot involved in the
transaction has frontage on Third
avenue of % feet and a depth to an
alley Of $50 feet, or a total frontage of
SO feet. The tract starts at the corner
of Third avenue and an alley in the

G. Miller company is tenant at No. $50.
A vacant lot with a 22-foot frontage

AT THE UNIVERSITY
Catholic Activities at the State lnsti
tuition,

Rev. j. M. Cleary of the parish of
the Incarnation spoke before a general
assembly of the students of the Uni
versity Wednesday,. Father Cleary
spoke Of the need of religion among
all people and among educated people
in particular who were destined to ex-
ert a greater influence in the world
than those who had not the advantage
Of university training. He urged his
hearers to cultivate the habit of look
ing for the good things in the world
about them, to be constructive, not
destructive. Religion and science, he
said, cannot conflict because truth
cannot conflict and religion is only
truth about God while science is truth
about nature of which God is the au-
thor.
Father Clearys address is the first
that has been given at the University
by q Catholic clergyman for some
time. The address was short and we'll
received by the students.
Very Rev. DR.. Moynihan Of the Col
lege of st. Thomas. delivered an inter-
esting lecture on the basis Of NOR
atty before the members of the Uni
versity Catholic Association last Sun
day afternoon. Father Moynihan
showed that without the recognition of
God there could be no such thing as
morality in the world. He advanced
the principal arguments used by those
who hold that morality is due to
unitarian process and showed that
those who claim to be moral and at
the same time not believe in God are
moral because of the fact that they
are living in a Christian atmosphere.
Father Moynihan has delivered three
lectures before the Association, all of
which have been on topics of the deep
est interest to the Catholic students.
At well attended meeting of the
University Catholic Association on
Sunday, the final plans for the girls
spread were made and the spread was
held Monday night in Shevlin Hall.
Over one hundred girls We're in at

sic and dancing was among the amuse-
ments offered. The wives of several
members of the faculty were the
guests Of honor.
The Men Of the Association will have
a smoker this evening. The purpose
of those in charge is to enable the
Catholic men at the University tc
meet and become acquainted with one
another. This is new departure ir

pected that the affair will be well at.

THE efforts OF the government and
the various states TO provide pure
food for the people Of the country
has brought about a higher quality OF
foodstuffs, but IL has not deferred the
inventive genius OF the country from
trying TO work out schemes for sub
stitutes and adulterations.
State food and drug inspectors re-
ceive scores of letters and circulars
from alleged chemists and get-rich-
quick men who would make grocers
and butchers their tools.
