PRIEST SCORES
SUFFRACISTS
CALLS MARCH TO ALBANY SPEC.
TACLE THAT MIGHT WELL
CAUSE WORLD TO BLUSH
IIK EMS THEM TO
ANIAZONS.
FATHER WILLIAM j. COYLE, IN
SPEAKING ON RIGHTS, ASSAILS
OVER-INSISTESNCE OF
WOMEN.

New Haven Jan 6-Speaking in his
sermon on resolutions made for the
j., of Philadelphia, brother of Rev.
John D. CoyIe, of ST. Johns r. c.
church, took occasion yesterday to
make some pretty sharp remarks
about the suffragist movement and
specifically about the suffragist march
TO Albany, under General RosaIie
Jones.
We hear much in these times about
human rights Everyone has some
axe to grind in the way of rights It
IS the Dugbear of the age We hear
of the rights of the la:boring man, and
he has some rights which must be re-
spected
"And just now we have been hear
ing altogether 100 much about the
The air resounds eternally with it to
the disgust Of every sane man. Wo-
men want the right to vote, and to
demonstrate this right, the other day
New York sunragists trotted to Al
bany, and the world saw a spectacle
that it Wen might blush for.
These fhrazen and vulgar women
striding like so many Amazons
through the streets, Haunted their UNI
womanliness and lack of self-respect
before the eyes of soothing men and
women.
They marched to lay their petition
to vote before the new Governor
In all this talk of rights, we hear
nothing about the rights Of God, and
I assure YOU He has some rights,
which if we are to be happy even in
this life we must respect. Mark you
we'll, I have had much experience in
life and have met many people, and
I have never met any who, if they ad-
| n1tted the truth, were happy in pursuit
| OF worldly pleasures There is no
happiness even in this life which can
compare with a clear conscience.
1T behooves us at this season of the
year to take a Janus-Hke gaze into the
spect our failings of the past year,
and take the resolution to overcome
them. But merely taking the resolu-
| ton will work not a whit Of good.
The bare decision to do good avails
nothing, for human nature is too fraiI.
| In our New Years resolutions we
must be fortified by the sacram ents
and the grace of God"

An interesting question is raised by
writer on gardens in the Atlantic
Monthly. Why should so many Amer
lean gardens have that queer, 1rrele-
want, useless thing called ''pergola 2"
Generally it is built in a spot where
shade is called for, but the pergola,
having no roof, affords no shade. It is
really a trelIis and is borrowed from
countries where it is used to support
grapevines, but American grapevines
are kept pruned back to mere stumps,
and the pergoIa, as affected by our
suburbanites, is OF no use at all as a
grape trellts. What is its use we have
never been able to find out Perhaps
some one knows. AS one generally
sees it, the pergola is a sprawling, ex-
tremely naked object, suggesting a
shed which has had its roof blown off
by gale or henroost that has been
deserted by the hens because it is no
good Can it be that it is regarded by
some people as ornamental?

amusement One such occurrence,
which became a standing joke, Is re-
lated as follows:
One day. just as school was over,
there was a heavy downpour of rain,
and we looked out along the PKiester-
gasse for our Fritz. All the boys were
running like mad to their homes. At
last Httle Fritz also appeared, walking
slowly along, with his cap covering
his slate and his little handkerchief
spread over the whole. Mamma wav-
ed and called out Co him when he was
some way of, Run, child, Fun!' The
sheets Of rain prevented us from
catching his reply. When our mother
demonstrated with him for coming

rioJzsly: +But, mamma, In the rules of
the school It is written, ON leaving

run about in the street, but must walk
quietly and decorous4y to their
homes'" Fritz had obeyed this rule
under the most adverse circumstances.

A Fine Battery of Teeth.

The animal having the most teeth is
the great armadiIlo of south Central
and northern South America. 1t is a
fact well known to most people that
the normal or average number of teeth
in mammals is hirty-two-sixteen
above and the same number below.
The great armadilIo, however, is an ex-
ception, having from 90 to 100. He has
from twenty-four to twenty-six in each
side of the upper jaw and from twenty
two to twenty-four in each side Of the
lower jaw. Another popularity lies in
the fact that they are all molars or
grinders. They increase in size from
front to back, instead of from the root,
and are wholly destitute of enamel

INDANGER
OF LOSING NEW
BALL PARK

Joe McGinnity and his Tacoma
Tigers may not have much of a
ball park this year after all, If
john Il. ArkIey of the Tacoma
Land company carries out the
threat he made to the city coun-
Gil this morning.
The real estate man insists that
he has been Disseminated against
together with other property own
ers in the vicinity of the ball
grounds, in that he has had to
pay $4,000 assessments on his
land as a result of the city's in
stitntion of condemnation pro-
ceeSings for the opening of 18th
street, while the ball park own
ers' have paid nothing. This, he
says, is due to the fact that the
city commission allowed only part
of the street to be opened, In or
der that nothing would have to
be cut off the grounds.
Now he declares he wants the
same treatment meted to the base
ball men as other property own
ers receive, and threatens to sue
the city if they don't open the en-
tire street, which act would make
bandbox out of the local
grounds.
Mayor Seymour thought as
long as 1t was McGinnity's first
year and he had spent lots of
money, 1t was only right to give
the new man a chance.
The commission endeavored to
argue Arkiey out of it, but to
no avail. He insisted upon the
opening of the street. The coun-
Gil will take the matter up tomor-
row morning.

The stand where we sat was on

music of the multitude. But at
