The Sabbath Violated.

Sheriff Pagan accompanied by a dep
utv visited the cement plant, (which IS
located in Frederick county, near Union
Bridge.
He served notice upon the superin-
tendent and upon the foreman of the
quarries to have the men in Frederick
on Friday afternoon at O'Clock. In re-
sponse to the request of all of the
leading officials of the company to
know upon what charges they were
arrested for working on Sunday or blast
ing. Sheriff Pagan notified them that
they would have to answer both charges.
Some time ago the foreman of the
quarries was notified by the Frederick
county officials not to work on Sunday.
The foreman at the cement quar-
ries also claimed that he was a new
man, and that his attention had never
been called to an order prohibiting Sun
day work.
The fact that the cement company was
operating its quarries was called to the
attention Of Chief Judge Urner and he
in turn notified States Attorney Lewis
who instructed Sheriff Pagan 10 max,
the investigation above reported.

OLD SOLDIER DIES ON LEPER

Ira B Dutton Volunteered to
Serve Father Daimen in Per-

A special dispatch from New York.
/ dated January 22nd, says: Information
I has been received here of the death on
I the leper island OF Molokai of a former
captain in the late Civil War. Ira Barnes
I Dutton, who late in lite became a con-
! vert to the Catholic Church and offered
/ himself IN 1886 as a servant of the friend

ing to the black lepers of the Hawaii

Come in. good friend" the leper
/ priest said TO the grizzly veteran, III YOU
want to die in the harness of Christ.
| cannot promise YOU health, but the
spirit that guided you here will give you
strength when am gone"
| From that moment Captain Dutton
became known simply as Brother Joseph.
He took no vows aud made no pledges.
as he stated less than two months ago IN
a letter to a friend. Il felt that | might
make myself useful - he wrote. "by be-
ing servant of a famous servant of
God. When am gone please do not
write a memoir. but il you will, say that

wars of men. as was the case in the past,
but in the service of Christ"
The details of Brother Joseph's last
DAYS are not known, aud it may be many
weeks before the complete story of his
death is made public. 1t is thought that
he died about Christmas time. Army
veterans it was learned yesterday. have
asked the Government to get definite
information.
A message to the London Tablet"
a Catholic weekly. says that he con-
tracted leproSy about four years ago.
This. however, is not correct. although
ii may be true that he died of the dis
ease which carried away his master,
Father Damien. DR. A. p. Morrow, a
well known leprosy expert Of this city,
was good friend of his Neither DR..
Morrow nor any of those with whom
he correSponded from time to time had
any knowledge OF his being i'll with the dis
ease and correspondence was received
from him as late as last November.
About that time his letters ceased to
come. aud his friends suspected that he
was sick.
Brother Dutton was in his seventieth
year He was born in Vermont and
passed his boyhood days in Ianesville,
Wisconsin. AT the age of 8 he en-
listed in the Thirteenth Wisconsin In
tantry, and was mustered out with the
rank of captain. Several times the
government wished to pension him. but
he declined. The government. he
wrote, does not owe me anything" On
the contrary feel SO much indebted TO
my country that | would readily give up
my life for it in a just cause"
After the war he held office in the

VISIT YOUR SCHOOLS.

How MANY of our school children 5
parents ever visit the schools or even
know the teachers when they meet them
on the street? How many know what
their children are studying or how they
are progressing? Is there any OF YOU
who have building to make or a fence
to build;ss al dress TO make house TO
paint or whatever the job may be, that
say to the one that YOU have employed:
Here are the tools and materials, 90
ahead and do it to suit yourself and it
will suit me-" Is not that what many of
you are doing with your children? You
say by your actions: Here is my child
with its books, paper and pencil, have
furnished the materials and tools, now
educate him as you like.
Woman's true mission. said a well
known writer, is comfort to the sorrow
ing, plead for the erring, encourage the
faint of purpose, snCcor the distressed,
uplift the fallen, beiriend the friendless-
in word, offer the healing of her syp-
pathies, and home in her heart, for all
of the bruised and prosecuted children
of miSfostune that knock at her hosplt-
able door.
The pleasures we enjoy are lost by
coveting more.
May your peck Of troubles" for 1913
be OF very scanty measure.
\
A stubborn, obstinate man. is the
easiest one to handle. Just push hlm in
the opposite direction that you want him
to go.
1t is said to spoil COW, yell at her,
and pound her with the milking stool;
and the best way to spoil wife is to
frown and scowl at her and never let her
have cent of money.
Did you ever try helping out your
enemy when he is in tight place? Do a
kind favor some propltious time to your
nearest neighbor. Such things have
made very amiable people out OF grabbed
ones.
The power to be true helper of
others, binder up Of broken hearts, a
comforter of sorrow is the most divine OF
all endowments.
