First Marriage Under the New Rule An
nounced for Chicago Cathedral.

Chicago, April S.--The first wedding
to be performed at the cathedral of st.
Peter and St. Paul under the new regu-
lation which requires the production of
medical certificates with the marriage
license will be solemnized next Wednes-
day, when A. w Bode of 60l2 South
Sargamon street and Miss Ruth Palmer
will be married.
The third and last banns announcing
the ceremony were read at the cathedral
yesterday. Both bride and bridegroom
elect have presented certificates of health
from most reputable physician ac-
cording to the statement of Dean Sum-
ner.
Dean Sumner said Saturday.
ut is most gratifying to see that the
majority of people have noted the philos-
ophy of our action and have seen the
desirability of placing some safeguard
about marriage.
"Those who approached the matter,
specifically. however, have seen only
some of the difficulties which stand in the
way and have failed to catch the real
meaning of the movement, while many
have stated that they believed such a
movement most desirable and necessary.
They have urged that the state and not
the church should lead in such action.

OF which time he returned to Ludlow
for another period of six years.
Maine next made claim upon his min.
istrations, and at the end of his Ludlow
pastorate Mr.. Reardon became leader of
the church in Oakland. 1t was after
he had been a successful pastor in the
Oakland church for four years that he
received call from the Universalist
church in Springfield, Vermont. He took
up work in his second Vermont parish
in July, 1907. The Springfield parish
offered a peculiar opportunity for a
minister of Mr.. Reardon's adaptiveness,
and his ministry there was one of un-
usual success.
Two months ago he was asked to be-
come pastor of the Barre church, the
action following his appearance in the
local pulpit. The request for him to
consider the call was the result of unani
nous action on the part of the governing
board. Later Mr.. Reardon announced
his acceptance and preached his last ser
mon in the Springfield church March 81.
Within the next few days, Mr.. Rear
don will move his family into the Uni
versalist parsonage on Church street.
Mrs. Reardon and son, Gordon, will ar
rive in Barre the latter part Of the
week. The eldest daughter, Miss Gratia,

THIS NEGRO SENTENCED
SIX TIMES TO DEATH
Seven Trials of Burrell Oates for Muir
der in the First De-
gree.

Austin, Tex, April Sin the jail OF
Dallas county is a negro named Bur
rell Oates, who has been tried for MUIR
der seven times and sentenced six times
to be hanged. An appeal from the YER
dict in the seventh trial Of the case was
submitted to the state court Of Grim
inal appeals at Austin few days ago.
II is one of tho most remarkable cases
in the history of Texas criminal juris-
prudence.
The negro is alleged to have murdered
Sol. Aronotl, a merchant Of Dallas. The
crime was committed on the night of
November 30, 1904 Aronoh, store
keeper, was held up by white man
and negro. His wife entered the store
while her husband was being robbed
and fired ut the negro with a pistol.
The white man fired several shots, one
OF which killed her husband. On the
confession of a white man, Oates and
Holly Bann, his white companion, were
held The negro was identified by Mrs.
Aronof.
The first trial Of Oates resulted in
his conviction and sentence to death. An
appeal was taken to the court OF Grim
iral appeals and the case was remanded
for a new trial on April II, 1905, on
account of IN irregularity in drawing
the names of jurors.
The second appeal from the death pen
atty reached the court of criminal APP
peals and rev trial was granted on
May 3, 1906. The teehnicality that
caused this decision was that the jury
should have been instructed that IL the
wife shot her husband by mistake the
prisoner was not guilty of murder.
Oates was again tried and convicted,
bur on May 10, 1907. the case was re-
versed by the court of criminal appeals
on the ground that the trial Judge did
not properly define murder in his charge
to the jury.
On June %, 1909, the case again came
before the court of criminal appeals and
a question as to the legality Of the
Of the trial Judge was the
ground for setting aside the verdict and
again remanding the case for a new
trial.
The fifth trial of the case resulted in
no verdict as to penalty, one juror stand
ing out for life imprisonment and the
other eleven demanding the death pen
atty.
The sixth trial of Oates resulted in
the granting Of new trial because the
verdict did rot pronounce him guilty
OF murder in the sfrst degree" 1t is
the sixth conviction and seventh trial
that is now before the court of criminal
ANNALS for rpVipw If will he several
weeks before decision is rendered.
1t was nearly seven years ago that
Oates was arrested for the crime and
he has been in Jail ever since. He is
80 years old.

coMMANDERY AT CHURCH.
st. Aldemar Attended Service at Presby.
terian Church.

st. Aldemar commanderY, No IL,
Knights Templar, attended the morning
services at the First Presbyterian church
in body yesterday. Rev. Duncan Sal
mond, pastor of the church. chose for his
discourse the subject, what Christ Is
Doing in the World To-day" In this
materialistic age, the profession Of reli-
gion is the highest exempliiication of
than anyone on this earth, no matter
how close the bonds may be that bind
them. All that diligently seek him are
rewarded,
The Masonic orders we're founded in
I'LL, but many date the founding back
to general assembly held at York, Eng
land. in the year 926. To-day this or
ganization is the oldest and most wide
w distributed on the face of the earth,
the enrolment reaching upwards of two
millions of people.
The complication of the Masonic or
ders' profession of Christianity is based
on its rituals which show that this or
qanization was founded on belief in God.
That this has asserted itself can be
found in the character Of its members,
who are forever practicing virtue and
seeking truth and justice.
That Jesus Christ is still in this world,
although unbelievers and skeptics deny
It, is made manifest by the following
quotation from the scriptures; 10, /
am with you always, even unto the
contamination of the ages" By faith
we know that the Lord is still in the
world and as God is the most perfect
of men through all ages and this high
est ideal Of man we are always striving
to initiate.
The following was the order of the mu-
steal program at the morning service:
Anthem, Victory" Shelley; solo, Fear
Not We, o Israel" by Mrs. r. w. Gauid;
anthem, Break Forth Into JOY" Sim
per. At the evening services the pastor
preached on the sermon. ''What Reasons
Have We for Believing That Man Will
Rise Again."

Some Hot Fights in the Pri-
maries Held Saturday
ROOSEVELT WINS IN HILLS
Senator Bradley, Who Had Charge of
Taft Campaign, Expressed Confidence
That Taft Men Had Won
Out by Good Margin.

Louisville, April s.--With practically
every county heard from Saturday, re-
turns from the mass conventions held
Saturday to choose delegates for the dis
trct and state republican conventions
show that President Taft has swept
the state and will control the state con-
vention in Louisville next Wednesday.
Contesting delegations from many eoun-
ties will be sent to the district con-
ventions to be held on Monday. but in
nearly every instance the Taft delegates
hold the credentials and probably will

The hottest fights waged were in
Louisville, Frankfort, Lexington and
Shclbyville, where conventions split up
and separate delegations were selected.
President Taft carried six wards In
Louisville and Jefferson county and Col.
Roosevelt carried six wards As Jeffer-
son county and Louisville make up the
entire fifth district, SO votes viii be
cast for the president in the state con.
yention.
Charges Of fraud in various counties
were made The Roosevelt forces were
the strongest m the mountain counties
III the tenth and eleventh congressional
districts. but The Taft delegates in .hose
two districts hold the credentials and
two delegations probably will be sent
to the state convention. At Lexington
the Taft and Roosevelt delegates held
separate sessions in the same hall. one
instructing for Roosevelt and the other
for President Taft In this instance, the
Roosevelt delegates hold the credentials,
but strong fight will be made to UNI
seat them in the district convention.
United States Senator William @,
Bradley, who has charge of the Taft
campaign in Kentucky said that he was
confident that the battle was over and
that Kentucky would undoubtedly be
instructed for President Taft The elev-
enth district, remote from telegraphic
communications, is the only district
which is giving the Taft forces any I'M
easiness. Reports from there give Col

TAFT WINS IN WEST VIRGINIA.
Two County Conventions Deal Heavy
Blow to Roosevelt

Wheeling, w. Va. April s.--President
Taft carried Wood and Berkeley coun.
ties at Saturdays Republican conven-
tions in Parkersburg and Martinsburg
In Wood county he received twenty-nine
OF the thirty-one delegates, while in
Berkeley, Roosevelt received eleven Of
the eighteen delegates. The conventions
proved a great blow to the Roosevelt
boom in West Virginia, as il was
thought by the Roosevelt leaders that
the former president would carry Wood
county with ease.
Last week Col. Roosevelt delivered adj
dresses in both of these counties and
since that time Gov. Glasscock, Major
General Charles d. Elliott and other
Roosevelt leaders have been conducting
meetings in these sections, while the
Taft followers have made no effort to
stump the state West Virginia is now
conceded to the Taft column.
Wood county is the home of ex-Gov.
ULite, who had charge of the Roosevelt
forces there.

PREACHED LAST SERMON
AS PASTOR IN BARRE
Rev. z. o. Thayer Is to Leave Soon for
California, After Successful Minis
try in Vermont Conference.

The exercises at the Hedding Meth
odist church were especially notable from
the fact that they marked the severance
of pastoral relations between Rev. Ed
ward 0. Thayer and the church, as he
is about to leave the Vermont con-
ference to 90 to Long Beach, California,
after five years of successful ministry
in Barre. At all the services of the day
the pastor was greeted by large audi
ences, and his closing words were fol-
lowed with close attention.
At the forenoon service the church
auditorium was filed with people. The
front Of the auditorium was simply, yet
effectively decorated, there being large
cross suspended from the ceiling over
the pulpit and the words "The Lord Is
Risen," being placed in large letters just
below.
Dr. Thayer preached on the subject,
"The Easter Gospel" delivering force
full sermon, which emphasized the point
that Jesus Christ is present. The speak
er asserted that He was not present In
the sense of being merely an inspira-
ton. as one would say in the case of
George Washington, Abraham Lincoln,

was present in the sense of knowing
our thoughts, being acquainted with our
feelings and being interested in our do
ings. You believe that, asserted the
preacher, but In some way you have
associated the idea Of the material thing
with something which you can place your
hand upon to touch, so that you have
finally come to look upon Jesus Christ's
presence as far removed. But Jesus
Christ is with you, declared the speak
or; and II is the main point which /
wish you to take home with you.
The service was made impressive by
the special Easter music of the chorus
choir, and DR. Thayer took occasion to
publicly express his appreciation Of the
work of that organization. saying that
it had been an inspiration to him. Last
evening the annual Easter concert was
given in splendid manner, being appre-
ciated by large audience
Rev, and Mrs Thayer were busily en-
gagged to-day making their preparations

sent out several trains to spread the
gospel of better road building, is prepar-

Logan w. Page, director of the bu-
resu, declared Saturday that most ex-
celient results had followed from the

year. To this he attributed in large
part the fact that Sl4,000000 of the

Reports are being received, he said, of

POLITICAL ADVERTISING
Roosevelt Wins in Vermont

Why does not the Taft machine
publish in this and every other news
paper in the state returns from the
caucuses held Saturday, March 80,
by towns and counties, as has been
done in every previous election for
thirty years. Actual figures count;
claims do not. Isn't it true that the
Taft machine does not dare to tell the
people of Vermont h e cold hard
facts about what happened TO the
Taft organization on Saturday, March
30th-by towns and counties?
To the balanced mind, the frenzied
editorials appearing in the machine
papers, pictures the machine at BAY
and facing certain defeat. These ed
itorlal attacks are the last appeals to
the passions and prejudices of the
delegates; they do not anywhere ap-
peal to their good judgment. The
attempt to connect the Roosevelt
movement with any trust is absurdity
reduced to the ridiculous.
The same claim was put up to the farmers of
North Dakota In exactly the same LANGUAGE
and they answered the SANDER upon their in,
tclligence by giving Mr.. Taft vote of 1897
out of total vote of SO, 900, or giving Mr..
TAFT but one vote out Of every twenty-four.
