CLEAN LITERATURE
Movement to Suppress Immoral Pub
locations Progressing in Ireland.

The Irish Catholic Directory for the
current year contains a review of the
ecclesiastical events of 1911 in which
the following reference is made to the
clean literature movement:
1T is most gratifying to note that
the crusade against publications of an
immoral character is being conducted !
with increasing vigor. Outside the
various Dublin churches today posters
were exhibited appealing to the pub
lie not to support Sunday papers of
evil reputation which are being inn
ported in large numbers. This was q
most practical act on the part of the
Vigilance Committee, as it brought
prominently under the notice of many
matter of vital Importance. In con-
sequence of the agitation many news |
agents refrained from displaying plac-
ards relating to these publications. At
a meeting of the city's confraternities
in st. Joseph's Church, Berkeley
street, on Sunday afternoon, v. Rev.
Canon Downing, p. p, delivered a.
stirring address in favor of the new
crusade. The Limerick Vigilance Com
mittee has issued circular, which has
been sent to all the papers, asking
their support. Acknowledging receipt

tied in this country, she mentions Pat
rick Murray from Donegal, but she
AYERS that he came originally from
Scotland. She is as competent to
write concerning this name as she is
to compile a Welsh dictionary. Both
the Irish and Scotch families of this
name are of Gaelic origin, the major
ity are Irish, and even the Scotch
name was originally derived from Ire
land. In the latter country. there were

were dispossessed of their lands in the
18th century by the Barretts and
Lynches. To this latter clan belonged
two famous twelfth century bishops,
Annadh O'Murray, bishop of Ardagh,
and Conner O'Murray, bishop of KEEL
macduagh. A tribe of this name lived
in Kerry, while still another, to which
belonged Murray, the sculptor of the
famous Monasterboice Celtic crosses,
was located in Co. Meath. 1t is also
interesting to note that while the Gill
murray clan of Co. Down are now gen.
orally known as Gilmores, not a few
of them rendered their name into Eng
lish as Murray.
The Pioneer Press writer tells us
that the name Pierce is of English
origin. From the Irish records, it is
easy to prove that in the 18th century
the Pierce or MacPierce family was
an offshoot of the great house of But
Ter. The Irish Pierces, who are very
numerous, are descendants of the fol-
lowers of Walter, son of Pierce But
Ter, who, to distinguish him from 9TH
ers of the same name, was called Wall
ter MacPierce (Walter, son of Pierce).
Another family which she claims as
English Is that of Curley or Gurley.
/ The family comes from the old Ulster
clan of MacOirealla or MacCurley
Neither can all those who bear the
name Of Howe be claimed as English
The old Irish name was O'Heochadha,
| variously Anglicized Houghey and
Howe. OF the Cary family she writes:
1.-THE name Cary is probably Il name
of Saxon origin taken originally from
some place in England. There is a
river called Carybrook near the ham,
let of of st. Giles in Heath, England
which very likely gave the name tc
way, there were early Carys in this
neighborhood. One-Kari, it is spelled

and there is another old record Of
someone of the name in the parish o

VIM REPLIES
To WOODWARD
Mayor Says Candidates State.
ment Gives Misleading In
formation on Finances.

Replying to James G. Woodward's an
nouncement statement as a candidate for
mayor, Mayor CORTLAND S. Vim gave an
interview today in which he said Mr.
Woodward's statement gave some mis-
leading information about the city's fnan-
cial condition.
Mr.. Woodward said that the present
administration had pledged $500, 900 of the
city's future revenue, while the charter
specifically provides that one administra-
tion can not spend any of the revenue Of
any future year.
Mayor Vim said that Mr. Woodward
included in his statement s95. 900 of street,
school and sewer serial bonds. which ma
ture January L. s25, 900 OF Auditorium
bonds and the entire $4,000 which the
new crematory and electric power plant
is to cost
Mayor VIM said that the mayor and
council had simply given the city's moral
obligation for the following amounts,
which is simply a recommendation to
next years council that the appropria-
lions be made:
$4,000 payment on a 1915 900 crema-
tory s1l,250 as payment on the Eng
fish Commercial Girls High school lot; a
$4,000 payment on a new site for a stock
ade; 300 for the regarding of FORSYTH
street. and $1,000 as a payment to Carl
Witt for damages to his property caused
by the widening of Peachtree street. The
total is sos $50
The council contemplates giving its
moral obligation for $50 900 for the IVY
street Improvement and for several other
Improvements, but final action has not
yet been taken, said the mayor.

All Of this was placed before Govern

facts in the case.
The governor promptly agreed that
Jones had won the undisputed right to
executive clemency. SO Jones will be
paroled and viii soon he free.
Jones Is overjoyed. of course. But
he seems to feel that he only per-
formed a duty. He says he would do
it all over again, and without any
thought Of eventual reward.
The governor thinks there may be
worse men in the world and at large,
than is Ben Jones, convicted of murder
% Years ago.
The governor also determined today
to pardon Willie Jones negro Of
seventeen, sent up q few months ago
from Baker for simple larceny.
This young negro, too, has a record
for gallantry, and upon it the governor
based much of his determination to
clemency. He bravely stopped a run
away horse as it dashed through his
camp in Baker county recently, and
thereby prevented serious injury to-
and maybe saved the life Of, white
woman living in that vicinity.

There are $50 soda stands in At

grocery founts viii be far below. But
they fix $40 as Saturdays average
one concern which operates FIVE
