Mrs. Prince, as Mrs Hooker, of

Being unable to change the laws OF
her native State. she paid a pro-
tracted visit TO an uncle and aunt In
Birmingham, where, after the re-

tanned the decree.
How the Plot Progressed.
Many things happened in Birnlng-
ham in the interim, however. Mrs
Hooker became a social favorite
among the friends who visited the
home of her uncle and aunt Several
of these friends became just niue
more persistent than some of the 9th
ers, and finally one of them, a young
construction engineer in the employ
of the city of Birmingham, succeeded
in gaining and holding the affection
Of the young woman.
Mrs. Hooker, obtaining her divorce
fastened back home to prepare for
the wedding, and then big obstacle

encountered. Finally, however, MI
Prince and Mrs. Hooker met in At

arriving on the Southern train at l 80
D. m. and the other at $50 in the
morning.
In Atlanta things were easier. Mr.

SIMPLY ABSURD.

Walter F. Wilcox, supposed sta
tistiean and sociologist, makes the
absurd statement that recent immi-
grafton is apparently killing off the
older American stock, that the large
families of less desirable parents
among the classes where surround
ings are not the best are placing a
check on the progress Of the country.
His wires are crossed, else he would
recognize the undeniable fact that
the older Americans he refers to are
not leading the same simple and re-
ligious life as their forbears, who
themselves were immigrants. The
element he admires is decreasing
because Of the laxity in observance
OF the laws of God and the growing
evil OF divorce. It is from the large
families of the immigrants that this
country has derived its strength and
advancement. 1t is not immigration
that hurts, but the taking after
eugenics and other crazes that would
decimate and destroy the strongest
nation. America is young yet and
should welcome all who will aid in
the development Of her wonderful
resources.

LACKING IN RESPECT.

Cardinal Gibbons, in sermon in
the Baltimore Cathedral the first of
the week, declared that it is time
that some of those calling themselves
Christians call halt on their lack of
respect for the season of Lent and
their utter disregard for the rules
and observances of the season. Re-
ferring to those who are breaking the
Lenten rules the Cardinal said;
'Those who go to the seaside, to
the mountains or to some other. re-
sort to spend the Lenten season when
they consider everything dead are
to be censured. They are not obey
ing the command of the church to
spend this holy season in repentance
for their sins. They imagine that by
going off to some restful place they
are observing the rules which forbid
social gayeties. They are as much
TO blame as those who dance and
enter into other forms of amuse-
ment. Dances. card parties, theaters
end every other form Of amusement
should be cast aside for the forty
days"

PAsToRLEss CHURCHES.

In the Baptist Western Recorder
Of this week we find the following
from Benz. Urton:
eve made little trip some time
ago and learned that there were sew
eral pastorless churches, and from
what we could learn about the causes
they were trivial. One church the
pastor was called befoer he married,
IL must be remembered that the
females are a very important part of
our Baptist churches. A young
preacher is very popular amongst the
sisters until he takes unto himself a
wife, after that his popularity has
decreased about IS per cent. I
know whereof speak because have
been over the ground. l can heartily
sympathize with any young pastor
that becomes married man, because
he can not please all his congrega-
ton, neither can he marry all the
gle1p9Aat~Yant to be a preachers
Wife Nor %nShe become son-in-
law to as many as would like to have
q preacher for a son-in-law; and
about two out of three members who
have marriaseable girls think their
daughter is the most suitable woman
in the community for a preachers
wife. Now, brethren, remember that
a preacher is just like you were
when you selected your wife, you had
to use your own judgment without
the advice of the community, and if
you had taken the advice of all your
neighbors you would have had more
wives than the law would have al
lowed you, or you would have landed
in the State prison, or would have
figured in the divorce courts, which
TO respectable Baptist will allow.
Now a little advice to young preach
ers, don't enter the pastorate until
you have selected a wife,"
Comment on the foregoing would
only be space wasted.

SPIRIT OF THE WORLD.

Right Rev. Benjamin ]. Kelley,
Bishop of Savannah, touches deep
note and one that strikes at the
greatest evil of our day, when he
discusses 1.-THE Spirit of the World"
that now pervades society to such an
extent as to crush out the thought
OF God and all that we owe to Him.
Bishop Kelley truly says that
worldlinesc is the prevailing sin of
the day and it's chief mark is relig-
ious indifference. He holds up with
the power of master hand the pic
ture of the church, that tells us that
We were made for God and must
serve Him all the days of our life,
IL we would be happy with Him in
the next, and the picture of the world
that would drag us from his most
sacred and solemn allegiance and our
eternal end.
Everywhere there is a breaking
away from old traditions, a tearing
down of Christian ideals. We find
this in home, the school room, the
university, the marts of trade.
Bishop Kelley calls upon the people
to recall the simple and sublime
teachings of the catechism and to
shun the world and worldliness, for
God has the right to our loyalty, our
love and our very lives.

FRATERNAL INSURANCE.

The troubles of several fraternal
insurance societies recently, over
rates, indicate the insecurity that the
are not established on sound bust
ness principles. Most of the non
Catholic fraternals are started with
one purpose in view-to furnish high
salaried positions for their organiz-
ers. They usually hold out the in
ducement of a very low rate of in
surance. It works we'll while they
are rapidly increasing in member
ship, but inevitably the time comes
when the death rate begins to make
heavy drains on their resources and
a raise in rates is the only alterna-
tive to prevent bankruptcy.
Meanwhile the members have been
paying their rates and the organizers
have been drawing comfortable sal
aries. The rate was an unsafe one
all along, and the officers knew it,
but they had their salaries and the
members thought they were being
protected. When the truth dawns
upon them, they are too old to seek
insurance elsewhere. The rates for
the old members must be raised in
order to drive as many as possible
out Of the organization or else ruin
must be faced. Then the real trouble
begins.
We have had several examples of
this, during the past year or so, in
non-Catholic fraternals. Some years
ago one or two Catholic fraternal
insurance societies faced the same
problem. The solution was not salts
factory to all concerned, but 1t was
probably the best that could be found
under the circumstances. Now all
our Catholic fraternals are on safe
basis. But the bait of cheap insur-
ance still leads many of our Catho-
lie men into the newer non-Catholic
fraternals. Some of them are now
learning the lesson that they should
have learned long ago. But they
would only learn by bitter experience.
But that experience should be a
warning to others to beware OF the
get-rich-quick (for the officers) low
rate fraternal organizations.
We omit the argument against
membership in such societies that
might be based on the score OF re-
ligion The Church looks upon all
them with disfavor; she absolutely
prohibits membership in some OF
them to Catholics. The business rea-
sons against them are sound and
plain enough to appeal to the or
binary man.-Omaha True Voice.

Mcguire Returns with Big
Fortune lie Made
Here.

When owen Mcguire left an Irish
cabin away in Connemara forty-five
years ago to seek a fortune in the
United States, no one realized that
he would one day become one of the
most flourishing merchants in his
native Galway. At any rate this is
the prospect that now presents itself
10 those who have lived to remember
the barefooted youngster who set out
on his career with passage ticket
to st. Louis, one suit of clothes
which he carried on his back-and
something like SO in his pocket,
which was subscribed by sympathetic
neighbors quite as poverty-stricken
as he was himself. Twelve months
ago he returned to ireland, and sur
veying the scene and calculating the
prospects, he decided to spend the
remainder of his days in the home
of his fathers. The land upon which
he had spent his youth had no longer
any attraction for him. The indus
trial activities of the United States
had almost caused him to forget that
he had ever seen a plow or dug
potatoes on the mountain side,
Industry, combined with well d.
rected speculation in mining, has
helped Mcguire to make his pile in
the United States, and with
S25O,0OO. which he says he has at
his command, he is going to set up
a huge store in Connemara, which
will have a capacity for supplying
the whole of that region.

Ca, was born in Ireland in 1910, and
came to Charleston, S. c., with his
parents in September, 1852. He be-

Whatever schooling young Walsh

do they menace their health, but they
