Mr.. Seguin would have lived a whole
century. The last time he was
mobbed at Dixie, Iowa, 1903, one
hundred Irish demons pounded him
three times in one nights time.
They broke his teeth, broke his right
arm, broke the drum of his right
ear, poked hat pins in his legs,
robbed him of $210 he had in his in
side vest pocket, and letter he had
from Cardinal Martinel1i, then dele
gate of his Apostate Church at
Washington, D. c., asking Mr.. Sc
gum to go back to his church in
Canada, and finally. after bruising
his face all over, compelled him out
of the town of Dixie by railroad.
Among the one hundred banditti that
did it there were seven Murphys and
the rest were of the same breed with
different names, with an o. at the
beginning Of names. This is what
that magnificent Christian humbug
of church has done for centuries
back and would do in America also.
unless Americans, Protestants, put
stop to their savagery. Mr.. Seguin
was married in 1880 to an ex-nun,
and both lived happily since then in
New York City, in Philadelphia, in
Chicago, in Minneapolis and now at
Stevens Point, Wis, keeping Home
of Rest to help unfortunate girls.
caring for orphans, which they did
since 1904, after passing through
that horrible ordeal of mob at
Dixie, Iowa.
The money coming from the sale
of his book is applied to the Home
which they now keep at Stevens
Point, Wis. In that Home, no cues
lions are asked to inmates about
their various beliefs. It is simply
"unsectarian.' The motto of the
Home is eco and sin no more"
This ought to be the motto of every
church member or no-church mem
Der. An appeal is made to every
body to come and help the poor,
struggling ex-priest.

by indifferently where they could
make the doughtiest fighters against
Papery.
Another matter: do not state that
there is less racial integrity and race
prejudice among the Latin peoples
than the Teutonic races. There is
not a Louisiana Creole, for instance,
who would dream of marrying into
a family tainted in the slightest with
negro blood. Such families, SO faint
ed. are tabooed generation after gen
Grafton; and if any whites marry
them, they are not OF the Latin race.
=. am much Of a traveller, and
to my amaZement I noticed that
among the Scandinavians, Slavs,
Danes, Germans (and less among
Anglo-Saxons), there was smaller
degree of race antipathy than among
the Latins. Think how the Span
iards held Off from the Moors even
in the height Of Moorish glory; re-
member how the Romans held Off
from the Cathaginians and Mature
tanians. It is true that the Span
iards have mixed with the Caribg in
lower America; but there was an
awful dearth of white women in
these vast and far-away wilder
neSSeS.

ana educated IN montreal, .CanaQa,
where he was ordained Priest in
1866 and acted as such for
fourteen consecutive years, with
out being kicked out of it, as
long as he was willing not to
think for himself, obey the man
dates of his Bishop and play the role
of hypocrite-being simply corpse
according to the favorite doctrine Of
Popery-''Perinde &C cadaver esset''.
Just as if he were a corpse. Had
it not been for his coming to the
United States, the last year he was
a priest, to become a Parish Priest
at Brainerd, Minnesota, he would be
today, If living, corpse yet. But
fortunately, on his way to Minnesota
from Montreal he met a deep Prot
estant thinker called Wilbur Drinks,
man Of business Of ST. Louis, Mo-,
who showed plainly that his church
had been teaching him doctrines of
devils and lies, forbidding to marry,
commanding people to abstain from
meats, etc, as mentioned by Paul to
Timothy-1st Epistle, Chapter 4th.
This was the first lesson that Mr..
Seguin received from that hereto or
Protestant called Wilbur Drinks Of
St. Louis, Mo. From that time to
his going to see Father Chiniquy,
who was keeping a Home for ex-
priests, at Kankalzee, Illinois, Mr..
Seguin began to become an alive
corpse, and this he has been since he
left the filthy cage of Romanism,
filled with unc1ean birds, as we read
Of it in Revelations, 1879. It is now
80 years that Mr.. Seguin came out
of that pit of degradation, and to-
day, although aged 70 years, he is
considered one of the best fighters
on the firing line that can be seen
in America. Any one that will read
his book, "Out of He'll and Purga-
tory can see at once that this
Chiniquy No. 2 is more an alive
corpse thanhe ever was since he left
confusion, corruptions, receptions
Of every grade as seen in every priest
that sticks yet to the old carcass OF
Popery. If Mr.. Seguin had not been
mutilated, pounded on his body as
he was so many times by Irish,
drunken Romish beasts, when on
the lecture field, it is believed that

@OPERY, that greatest of all
TIL dangers to our American lib
III critics, must be fought not
only by it's own foul methods
OF warfare but by broader, a more
tolerant and truthful type of bat
thing, so that a large number Of for

leaving only one-sixth who are un-

This large class which has been
SO successful in the propaganda
against Papery in France are de-
TERED from entering the fight
against priestcraft in America for
these reasons:
Too many Protestant papers are
forever harping on the Roman Cath
Diics worshipping idols, whilst each
eK-Catholic knows that neither he
Ror any OF his kin either Catholic or
ex-Catholic ever dreamed of such a
thing.
There rs too much prejudice
against Catholics in a social way in
American communities which is per-
sonal, intimate and vastly resented
by the Catholic in question and his
friends. On the other hand, there is
too little public action against the
great Roman Catholic Machine, the
greatest grating corporation ever
dnvented, whose shares could be
quoted at 100000 per cent above
par, the stock being closed except to
favored few.

decrease of 1877 per cent, while the

data distracted from the reports OF
the United States Bureau of the Cen

In this country. According to the
statement, the tuberculosis death rate
has declined steadily since 1904, when
it was 201.6. On the other hand, the
general death rate shows a fuctuation

steady as the tuberculosis rate. The

SCENES IN JERICHO

Declares Arabs, Riding on Their
Cames in Quiet OF Dawn, Passed
Like Phantoms - Visited
Grave of Lazarus.

Jerusalem-We had come down
from Jerusalem the previous morning
with q correspondent, carriage ride
of four hours, and had stopped for
luncheon at Jericho, or, more cor
rectly speaking, at Rilia, little to
the east of the site of the ancient
city. What memories of brilliant
events in Biblical history cling about
this spot! Jericho the city of palm
trees; the scene of Joshuas VIC
tories; the place where the last days
of Elijah were spent, and whence he
went forth with Elisha u cross the
waters Of the Jordan, to be taken up
to heaven in chariot of fire; the
spot where the two blind men were
healed the place where our Lord paid
a visit to the house of Yacheps. Here,
too, were the long celebrated and
beautiful groves and garderB given
to Cleopatra by Mark Antony. Jericho
now consists Of a large Russian
church, house for Russian pilgrims,
two hotels and the MUD huts or
Bedouin Arabs.
AS we descended the 700 feet below
Jerusalem the heat increaised until
we arrived in the tropical plain OF
Jericho under a blindiag sun. First,
we visited the pool of RlishS, the wa
tiers of which he had healed; then
tramped through the xuing Of the
Jericho of the Israelises, where we
saw Part of the city wall1 around
which Joshua and his erDag marched
seven times. After feS cGpitulation

city, which was fulfilled. Very re-

slowly, for the morning was misty.
The outlines of the hills were slowly
being defined by the rising sun with
a deep purple over their western
slopes. Then did I realize why art
lists so often paint them snrouded in
that color; and why the Psalmist
would utter the hope and the longing
of nations, II will lift up mine eyes
to the everlasting hills whence my
hope cometh."
Arabs, riding on their casmels along
the mountain roads in the all-prevad-
