Another Priest In Trouble

Rock Island. III. April 7s.--The Rev.
n L Skuiik, n Polish Catholic priest
who r. alleged 20 have harvested thou
sands OF dollars In this locality the last
flew months on fraudulent advertising
Ischemes, was arrested here today on a
federal warrant charging misuse OF
1.-THE United States malls. He Will be
Aried in the federal court at Peoria
The Rev Mr.. skulik Is the publisher
lof two magazines OF asserted large cir
lcuiation. one having. as he represented,
$4,000 and the other $4,000. He exacted
large advertising rates, but II Is
ieharged that In several monthly Issues
he did not print over total OF 900
copies
Also. Il was alleged. he made Il a
lpraotice OF selling the choice pages In
q given issue 90 two different concerns;
for instance, that the back page OF one
issue was bought by an implement fac
tory and a brewery.
The Rev. Mr.. skulIk had not even OBJ
tained the mailing privilege for his
publications. His advertising clients
were scattered over the entire country.
You will note that this priest is to
be tried In the federal court at Peoria.
i'll, the same court that tried, convict.
ed and fined william LLOYD Clark, OF
Milan, Ill. $500 In 1911, for sending
through the mails a circular advertis-
ing bis book. Hell at Midnight In
Springfield"
The question that naturally arises
IN this case is this: II man can be
convicted and fined in this court for
advertising q book that is allowed
transmission through the mails, what
can be done with one who actually
inses the mails to defraudi
4 Or win the fact that Mr.. Clark was
y Protestant and this man a Roman
Catholic priest make q difference with
hhe Peoria court and jury?
& We win watch results and see.

A man certainly knows the truth
about the Catholic church after he
has been a priest for is years. Father
McGrady chose to retire from the
priesthood rather than conform 70 its
commands regarding the interests
and welfare OF the common people.
Before his death he wrote in the Arena
OF July, 1907, from which the following
Is an extract: Thru the ballot the

The amount Of money extorted from
the poor workers OF all countries and
put into Roman Catholic cathedrals
and other costly church buildings is
immense. After spending 100000
on the Cathedral OF the Sacred Heart,
in Paris, It is still unfinished: and now
under the anti-Catholic laws the church
was claimed by the city and the courts
have Just made a decision in favor OF
the city. II seems hat Catholicism is
dying out in those Catholic countriesl

Archbishop Ireland In 1889 said:

has the power to speak; she has an OF.

God Wills IT, ar > our hearts shall

Froude says: $50 much only can be
foretold with certainty. that II the
Catholic church anywhere recovers
her ascendency. she will again exhibit
the destestable features which have
invariably attended her supremacy"

In nearly every Romlsh paper can

According to those at the club the
shooting was entirely accidental and
Mr. Peoples is sorry beyond express
sion at the happening.
1t was pistol shot, the ball pierre
ing the brain Of the negro. The occur
renee was about 10 o'clock tonight.
Mr.. Peoples rested tonight at the
governors mansion, where he went
just after the shooting took place.
Governor Blease was out of the city.
being at his home in Newberry. He
made an effort according to friends
to come here late tonight but could
not reach the city. He is expected to
return early tomorrow.
The news Of the shooting spread
about the city, although every effort
was made to keep it quiet. Many
friends thought it best not to publish
anything about the affair, but as it
was an accidental killing according
10 those at the club tonight, others
deemed 1t best that the facts be known
The details will come out tomorrow
at the coroher's inquest.
Sheriff Mccain was on hand person
ally at the club soon after the shoot
ing and on the suggestion that Mr..
Peoples get good nights rest at the
Mansion he sent a deputy with him.
Sheriff Mccain was heard to express
the opinion that his was a matter
Of form, although the shooting was
explained as accidental
j. f. Weaver, attendant at the club,
is quoted as saying that Mr.. Peoples
was passing a gun over the counter to
him when it exploded the bullet
was instantly killed. The gun is said
to have been a 44-calibre. The ball
entered at centre Of right temple and
came out Of left temple. A. *
A brother Of the dead negro was
present at the shooting. He afterwards
stated that he had heard no words pass
between his brother and Mr.. Peoples,
>yAnd the first thing he knew was the
Yeport Of the pistol, which he was very
much surprised to hear. The brother is
an employee Of the club also. 1t has
been very difficult TO secure any cone
rent statement Of the affair tonight,
and will be until after the inquest at
noon tomorrow before all the details
will be obtainable; all those present
agree, however, that the shooting was
accidental
Mr.. Peoples was asked for a state

Farming Well Advanced.

B. F. C. Loughridge, one of the
most progressive of Carter county's
farmers, who was in the city Monday
from his home near Lone Grove, says
that the farm work in his section is
we'll advanced this spring, all things
considered Mr.. Loughridge stated
that oats have all been sown in his
neighborhood and that practically all
the corn crop for the season had
been planted. The gentleman furth-
er stated that he thought more than
an average cotton crop would be
cultivated this season. He also said
that while the rainfall this season
has not been as great as it was last
season, yet he is of the opinion
that there is an abundance of mois-
ture in the ground and he sees no
reason for any to fear that Carter
county will not harvest as bountiful
a crop this season as it did last.

PROVENCE.

Prov roe, Okla, March 2S.-The
high windy weather we have been
having the past ten days is very disa-
greeable. we feel that we have al
ready had lions share.
Today is cloudy witk indications
of rain. A good rain now would help
in the farming as the ground Is get
ting dry.
We hear of some that have planted
corn, while there are others who think
it most too early.
Most everyOn. has planted gardens
though some of the early plants were
killed by the last freeze.
Peach Trees are in full bloom, we
think the fruit is not hurt yet.
These warmer spring days make
us feel that we would like to get out
aud plant something and get closer to
nature Especially was this desire
manifested by the pupils and teach
ers of the Provence schools, in tie
way they observed Arbor Day
After breaking up the yard and
leveling it down they set out quite
a number of nice, young trees. Along
every border flower beds were made.
They completed the work by trans
planting several dozen rose bushes
1t is expected That when these trees
flowers and shrubbery mature that

Rev. :. Frank Norris, who Is con-
ducting the revival services at the
Broadway Baptist church, arrived yes
terday afternoon and preached his
first sermon to large audience last
night. Rev Norris read Cor D.,

work. Mr. Norris will gather around
him a nucleus of workers who will
stand by the campaign throughout.
He announced today that the work
in the meeting on the part of the
Christian people would be no child's
play-that no doubt a census of the
town would have to be taken, the non
church goers gone after, and the
church in general walked up.
The services will be held daily at

A great young peoples procession
