YEP, TIE ARREST OCCURRED
ALL RIGHT.

A1A1 AS1GAaT.
Sir: The Washington Post pub
fishes today that you will be served
with a warrant of arrest tomorrow
morning (Monday), in which you
will be charged with sending obscene
matter through the mails in am ar
ticle in Watson's Magazine, reflect
ing upon Papal religion
AS recall it, you quoted the mat
ter from Papal official sources Now,
l am led to ask that if it is obscene
to Uncle Sam and his hardened
sleuths, what must it be to virtuous
wives, mothers and daughters upon
whom it is forced by Papal priests?
II have read history right, ut seems
to me that it was such condition as
you describe that was a factor i'm the
Reformation, and went to cut out
auricular confession in Protestant
practices. No wonder the Papists
are in arms against their exposition
now, when they boast they have the
United States in fair way to Papal
conversion!
Woe unto the United States in
Papal priesthood clutches! Awake,
oh, PrOtestants, to your peril, before
lOTUGQ
to the Papal confessional! AS your
Protestant ancestors nebelled against
1T, arose and threw it off, SO should
you, in lsuudable pattern, prevent it
before it is too late. The United
States under Rome means the death
knen Of Liberty and free institu-
tions. With the destruction of the
United States and her free institu-
lions viii follow the death of free
institutions the world over. Is it
strange, then, that Rome reaches out
to convert the United States?
AS | wrote you some time ago that
| feared that that Latin in Watson's
Magazine, May number, would draw
Papal fire, so it has come to pass. 1T
will cause you trouble and expense
but will rebound to your credit and
act as a bareback against the
Papists. Carry it up to the Supreme
Court and let Chief Justice Jesuit
enter decision. If he says it is not
obscene, SO we'll and good. If he
says it is obscene, then the most au-
gust tribunal of the world will have
pronounced against Papal official
propaganda. Let the light be
turned on, and Rome howl!
You are between two fires-the
Papists and your political party enc
mics in collision. I fear it is as
much political trickery and pestifer-
BUSINESS as it is Papal treachery and
persecution. If it be true that your
political enemies are in collision
with your Papal enemies to destroy
you, the people of the land of ,Ogle-
thorpe should arise, smite and de-
stroy them political tricl1sters and
Papal emissaries alike. Standing as
you do, for free institutions; stand
ing as you do, their most sturdy and
steadfast prop, all lovers of liberty
should cast aside minor differences,
and stand by you, and each one and
all contribute to your defense
against the onslaughts of the Jesuits
and political tricksters in collision.
send you SIS to help you fight the
fanatical bigots, and feel that you
will win.

This game is much liked by young
players, and even college girls enjoy it
as a change The players form i'll two
solid lines facing each other and sit
ting on the floor about four feet apart.
Two players. the captains, stand at op-
posite ends of the path formed by the
lines. A basketball is rolled by one of
them on the Goor between the lines,
and the players sitting on the floor try
to kick the ball over the heads Of the
opposite line. They must keep their
hands OH the floor and use their feet
only.
When the bail is kicked over a point
is counted for the team making the
kick. The other captain then fakes
the ball and rolls it from lis end. The
game continues until one team makes
the number of points previously agreed
on.

A Meeting

Toward the end of i!oe last century
a couple named MCMILLAN came over
from Ireland to settle in America
They had Il son and q daughter, the
former being thirteen and the latter
ten. The sons name was Dennis and
the daughters Mary. Dennis was Il
fine boy tall for his n-e and strong,
With sandy hair and an honest eye in
his head
On the same ship was another FAM
lily of emigrants for America, the Kel
lys, in which there was a girl, Eileen,
the same age as Mary Monalan. The
children came to know each other, and
the two girls played together ON deck
constantly. Dennis preferred to spend
his time in the engine room, where
the engineer, seeing It he took an
interest in machinery, made him well
come. Dennis asked Il great many
questions as to what this and that
We're for, and before the voyage was
over the engineer would let him do
little things for him in connection with
the engines.
One day Dennis was on deck talking
to one of the sailors, who was doing
some polishing Of brass. His sister,
Mary. and Eileen Kelly were playing
hide and seek. Dennis saw Eileen il,

MT. L.. E.. Nunnold, the popular gen. tlemen's tailor of 193 Fairfield avenue, is showing over 600 fabrics in all wool suits for his discriminating trade, i'm cluding the nobbiest English weaves and the dandy American fabrics. In this lot of choice suitings there is a variance from the sober. sedate, plain materials to the sporty, plaids, mix lures and stripes which are imported as masterpieces from the European loom. From this assortment probab- ly the largest shown in this vicinity the plain man may seek satisfaction, and the man with genuine sporting blood in his veins, may find a choice which will intoxicate him with de- light. But, as many have found out to their sorrow, the material is not all-fabric and workmanship go hand and hand at the Nunnold tailory. Tail ors who know their business, under stand all the essentials of dressy men, make Nunnold's Suit reputable throughout this city. Combine good material to good tailoring and you have the history of the success of the Nunnold tailory in a nutshell. Com bine the good workmanship with the materials and note the low prices and you have the best clothing values in made-to-measure suits and coats to be found hereabouts. You are invited to look through the 600 samples at the store-you will find dandies.

CLARK OF FLORIDA, 52 TODAY,

Numerically the Clark family isn't as strong in the national house of Representatives as some other tribes but, when it comes to prominence and publicity the Clarks are strictly there. Besides the well-known Champ, the House has Frank Clark. representing the Second district of Florida, who is to-day celebrating his fifty-second native of Eufaula, Ala, where he was born March 28. 1860, was admit ted to the bar at Fairburn, Ga, short ly after attaining his majority, and has since practiced law in Florida
 MT. Clark began his Washington ca reer as a member of the Fifty-ninth Congress, and has been on the job ev- CT since. When he first took his sat in the House certain witty law makers, with the benevolent inten- tion of showing the new arrival his place in the Congressional scheme of things, engaged him in controversy. the formation of decision on the part of the new arrival to go away back and sit down. Iii the case of the gent from Florida, the would-b hazers speedily discovered that they had "bit off more than they could chaw,' and ever since Mr. Clark has been permit ted to speak his mind without inter- ruptiop or vocal eruption. AS a mas ter of repartee and catch -as-catch-can debate, MT. Clark admittedly hasn't an equal in the House.
 It goes without saying that Con- gressman Clark is a Democrat, since he halls from Florida, and he is also a very independent sort of Democrat. Party ties have never held. him from

speaking his piece when he smells a dead rat in the woodpile or "nigger" in Denmark to use figure of speech. Arising to a question of personal privilege, is a frequent practice of the Congressman from Florida, and not long ago he so arose and made a bit-. ter attack on the Governor of his State, Albert w Gilchrist, Democrat, whom he characterized mildly as a Representative and the Governor was the outgrowth of the Florida Ever glades investigation instituted by MT. Clark, who alleged that "conscience1ess land sharks had been selling worth less swamp land to northern and east ern people on the "ten-dolIars-down- -dollars-a-m month -for-life plan" MT. Clark said that Mr.. Gilchrist, be- fore his election as Governor, had been engaged in land exploitation, and MT. Gilchrist insinuated that Mir. Clark was working in the interests of western railroads.
 Mr. Clark is also president of the Bryan Tell Us How to Vote Club, House organization of Democrats who profess to believe that the alleged in- reference of the Nebra skan in legis- lative affairs is calculated to be harm full to the chances of Democratic suc- cess next November. '"The plan of the Tell Us How to Vote Club" ex- plained Mr. Clark, 'is to ask Mir. Bryan's advice on every possible oc- there isn't any occasion" This Machiavellian scheme is understood to have originated with MT. Clark.
