CITY LIFE-WHAT THEY
GET OUT OF IT

Talk about city boys having
fun" snorted the big man. Say,
they don't come anywhere near the
good times we had when | was boy
OF home on the farm.
We were five brothers and say
There wasn't much we wern't into.
We went to every party within thir-
~ miles. The way we used to rush
home to &c dressed for party! The
first one Their got the best clothes,
you know. Many's the time I've
gone out TO a party wearing more Of
brothers cloths than my own.
"Of course We played tricks on
each other But it was all taken IN
good sport For instance, more than
once I've got home late and found
all the Stats out of my bed But
| always got 'em back, you can bet.
Our one regret was that we had
no sisters. We didn't have any girl
company at home because we had no
sisters. We could go out all We
wanted to, but it wasn't the same
as having bunch of pretty girls
dropping in to see fellows sisters
And work. How we gellows did
work out thor on that farm. We used
every muscle we had. But il was
good for us. We had something for
it all. We had good health and good
spirits. and We grew into big, strong
men. with manly ideas.
but what do get out of this
here work in the city?
IL work all day for some money
that have wOt to hand right out
again. DO get anything for it? a
headache; that's all.
IL go home with my headache. I'D
like to find my wife at home ready
to coddn me up little and that
sort of thing. you know.
well. find that my wife's beell
thru the mill just the same as have.
and there is not a cOddle. She's
been figuring how to make both ends
, meet and keep up appearances as
good rs the neighbOrs. She wants
the house and the children to be a
credit to me and THAT takes money.
She knows that If she looks shabby
the neighbors will begin to gossip
that I'm not doing so we'll, and /.
might hurt my business.
she's got to keep up with tho
church which costs money. She
tries tokeep up with the times by
belonging 10 club or so-and it
costs money She has got to pay
three times as much for everything
rs We did when We were first mar
fied. while our income hasn't KEN
up in proportion. to say nothing of
the children growing up and needing
more money.
We'll. what's the result? Ny
wife gets a headache too.
So. when | get home, We botn
have headaches. And that seems 10
be all we get out of life the wav
most of us are living now.
Il tell You. something isn't RICH,
somewhere. But what is an ordi-
nary man going 10 do about it,
Eek.

the addresses we're cut short Bishop
0'Donsghue, speaking of the dio-
cese, commended the work of his
priests and expressed the hope that
all would carry away pleasant rec
objections. He was also glad to be
able to entertain them with the
great parade they witnessed. THE
Power of the Catholic Press" was
responded to by John Paul Chew, of
st. Louis. He addressed himself to
the clergy and appealed for a more
liberal support of Catholic weekly
papers, causing ripples of laughter
at frequent intervals.
"The Parish Priest and Parish So
cieties" was the toast Of the Very
Rev. James p. Cronin, Vicar Gen
eral OF the diocese and pastor OF
st. Patrick's church. Father Cronin
made only a few remarks, in which
he pointed to the cooperation of
priest and people which made the
parade of Sunday such a success He
had words of praise for those who
had given their time and made pos
sible the great pageant.
Judge Matt O'Doherty was the
last speaker and responding to "The
Church and Social Order" delivered
the principal address of the evening.
He was given close attention and
ELECTED frequent applause. Judge
0'Doherty asserted with emphasis
that "the Catholic church realizes
today, as when she subdued the
pagan Roman and the fierce bar
barian from the North, that the real
battle of civilization must be waged
and won in the hearts of men and
that there can be no real civilization
without morality. The great truths
the church teaches that have freed
mankind are that society itself is of
divine origin; that men may make
the kinds of government they wish,
be It monarchy or republic, but that
God is the supreme power in the
universe and demands obedience to
his law. The Catholic church stands
for rightful authority on one hand
and liberty on the other. All good
citizens are agreed that any man or
class of men, who Will seek to adj
vance any cause, no matter how
right they may think It to be, by
fraud or deceit or violence are
criminals and anarchists. We must
seek in the church the only institu-
tion which can instill into mems
hearts the dread of such action"

FINE TRIP.
Trinity Council Excursion
to Famous Mammoth III
Cave.

Trinity Council, Y. NJ. l., will give
an excursion to Mammoth Cave on
Sunday, September 1, the round
trip fare being only $3.50. This will
include meals at hotel, guide fees
etc. The train will leave Tenth
street station, arriving at Mammoth
Cave for dinner, and returning VIII
arrive home at seasonable hour.
For the benefit of those who have
never viewed this worlds wonder
we reproduce the following:
In the year 1909 a hunter named
Hutchins, pursuing bear, entered
a marvellous cavern in Kentucky,
which has been shown by investiga-
tion through the years to be the
most remarkable cave on the Ameri-
can continent. 1t is located in Ed
monson county and within the limits
of this county are several thousand
sink holes and about 500 open cav
erns. Mammoth Cave itself covers
more than ten miles. The main
cave extends like a deserted river
bed through a succession of arches
and domes for over six miles,
where it is closed by a pile of
fallen rocks. In tho "rotunda" of
this cave are found relics of old
salt-petre works. New objects of
interest meet one at every turn and
wonderful effects are produced by
the stalactites and stalagmites. The
former are like great icicles, hang
ing from the roof. They have been
produced by water percolating
through and partly dissolving the
limestone. Each additional drop Of
water, hardening on the end of the
stalacite, increases it's length. A
stalagmite is the same kind OF
formation. though II is built up
from the floor by the drops that
fall upon II from the ceiling. Some
times these extend upward and
downward until they meet, forming
beautiful columns. The Bottom
less Pit" is on a terrifying scale,
and extending as 1t does entirely
across the avenue, was long an ef-
fectual bar TO the progress of tour
lists. Finally a bridge was thrown
across 1t. Though a substantial one,
for the sake of perfect safety, this
is renewed frequently. Leaning over
the hand-rails a tourist can safely
admire blazing rolls of paper as
they are whirled to and fro by the
guide, and then slowly sink one hun
dred and seventy-five feet. lighting
up the wrinkles and burrows made
by the torrents flow during untold
ages.

HOME FOR CANCER VICTIMS.

After 'laboring twelve years,
Mother M. Alphonsa Lathrop, a

Rose and friends, has completed a
new five story building for st. Roses
Free Home for Incurable Cancer. at
II Jackson street, New York. This
structure, which is between Corlears
place and East River, is having the
finishing touches put upon its inter
ior, and Mother Alphonsa is arrang-
ing with Cardinal Farley to have
him bless the building at a public
ceremony before the patients take
possession early in October. When
this home is opened the original
cancer cottage of Mother Alphonsa,
at 426 Cherry street, will be aban-
doned, and the seventeen patients
and four sisters will be moved 10 the
new building, I'm which there will be
room for 100 victims of the disease.

which were in line with their re-
spective societies and parishes.

BOOMERANG.
Throwing Loses
SuffraRettes Irish
Party Support

The conduct of the suffragists
in connection with the Prime Min
ister's visit to Dublin has lost them
the support of John Redmond and
his followers. Hitherto the Irish
party has been uncompromising
supporters Of the women's move
ment, and although they we're aware
that many of its leaders in Ireland
were hostile to home, rule, they sup
ported their demands in this matter.
Mrs. Redmond and her daughters
gave their adherence to the move
ment, but their experience during
the Premier's visit has completely
changed their views. The Red
mondites are also realizing that the
hatchet-throwers are animated more
by a desire to kill home rule, by
discrediting the present Government,
than they are to secure votes for
women. At any rate, quite a revo-
lutionary change has come over the
feelings and attitude of Irish mem
bers of Parliament in the course Of
few days. All who stood by the
remnants of the Ladies' Land
League" founded by Anna Parnell,
the sister of the famous Irish leader,
were stanch supporters of the suf-
fragist demand, but this influential
support, too, is now withdrawn, and
all that is left is a small section of
women in Dublin and Belfast who
have never had any sympathy with
the national aspirations of their
native land. In fact, the deeper the
Investigations are pressed into the
hatchet-throwing the more Orange
Toryism is revealed behind the
violent suffragettism. 1t is no won
der, under these circumstances, that
the friends of the constitutional
movement for women's rights de-
spair of success for their cause. The
hatchet thrown in Dublin at Mr..
Asquith is indeed proving a boom
erang in effect.
