10000 CATHOLICS MEET

Bishop McFaul Favors State Support
For Parochiai Schools.
Milwaukee, Wis, Aug. 12.-Three
sessions of the convention of the
American Federation of Catholic So
cieties are to be held, starting with a
business meeting in the auditorium.
While visiting Catholics number
some 10000, the business of the asso-
citation is in the hands of about 500
delegates.
The big convention was featured by
a parade of various societies in which
more than $4,000 persons took part,
and in the evening by a sacred con
cert.
Among the things to be discussed
during the. convention are religious
teaching in public schools and the
problem of taxing Catholic citizens to
maintain public schools. when they
are already maintaining parochial
schools. Bishop McFauls solution for
this is:
"First-Let Catholic schools remain
as they are.
"Second-Let no compensation be
made for religious instruction. Our
principle is, let the pastor take care
of ~ Ss.>k and live by the flock.
"rttrdz Let Catholic children be ex'
smined by a state or municipal board,
and If Catholic schools furnish the
regular education required, let the
xtAte put down the cash."

Early Sport on the Thames.

Sport on the Thames in London's
early days was more exciting than
boat racing. In the twelfth century.
for instance, the young "bloods'' en-
toyed kind of tilt the bucket" pas
time and delighted the spectators.
Thus William Fitz-Stephens, clerk to
Thomas a Beckett. on the rules of the
game: "In the Easter holidays. they
play at a game resembling a naval
engagement. target is fixed to a
tree trunk, which Is fixed in the middle
of the river and in the Prov of boat
driven along by oars young man
who is in it strikes the target with
his lance. If in hitting it he breaks
his lance and keeps his position un-
moved he gains his point and attains
his desire. but If his lance be not
shriven he is tumbled into the river"
1t is comforting to learn. however,
that the rules then allowed his friends
to pick him up.-London Spectator.

THE SITUATION Is IMPROVED
John Lind Arrives In Mexican Capital
and Starts Conferences With Charge
| D'AffaireS,

John Lind Arrives In Mexican Capitai
and Starts Conferences With Charge
D'Affaires.
Washington, Aug. II. - President
Wilson let it be known that he was
Inclined to believe there was an or
ganized desire - proceeding from
sources unknown to him-to bring on
war between the United States and
Mexico.
The president does not regard the
movement as extensive, but as very
troublesome, and referred to misrep-
resentations in some individual news.
papers He indicated that he shared
somewhat the views of Senator john
Sharp Williams. who declared in the
senate Oh Saturday that an organized
lobby existed to involve the United
States in war.
There is no occasion for alarm, in
the opinion of the president, who told
his callers that within the last forty
eight hours the Mexican situation had
improved materially. 1t was made clear
by the president that the instructions
to John Lind, his personal representa-
tive, who has arrived in Mexico City,
were chiefly to inform the American
government how things stood gener-
ally in Mexico and just what were the
opportunities for the good offices OF
the United States in the interests OF
peace.
Sooner or later, it was pointed out,
Lind will make certain suggestions to
the Huerta government through the
American embassy, but in just what
circumstances has not been determ1n-
ed upon Anything in the suggestions
that properly may be made public will
be revealed, according to administra-
ton officiels in Washington, and for
eign governments will be constantly
apprised of the various steps taken
by the United States This may not
take place for several days.
The president has had no direct
communication either with the Huerta
government or the Constitutionalists.
and he indicated to his callers that he
would welcome more information
about the purpose of the Constitutions
alists.
1t was learned also that the presf-
dent has not formally considered re-
cognition of the belligerency of the
Constitutionalists, but that, insofar as
territory alone is concerned, he re-
garded that held by the Constitutions
alists as strong enough in proportion
to that controlled by the Huerta goY.|
ernment to make recognition OF th9
Constitutionalists not wholly unjustf-
fable from a diplomatic standpoint.
With Lind safely in a suite at the
Fotel Lascurain, Mexico City, where
he is under the direct protection of
the American embassy. state depart
ment officials breathed easier, for they
considered that the most perilous
stage of Lind's mission has now been
passed.
It was feared that Huerta would
either bar Lind from landing at Vera
Cruz or would provide such slight pro-
lection that he might be assaulted
with impunity. Neither of these fears
proved to be justified and the only ac-
ton of Huerta now expected against
the United States that he might de-
port Mr.. Lind after he receives the
Iater's massage from President Wilson.

New York, Aug 12-Marfield Kemp,
"a civil engineer, of Lexington, Ind,
who returned on the steamship Abin-
gia from Hayti, said that he was the
only American who was present at the
funeral of President Tancred Auguste,
who was poisoned
The funeral was held in the big
cathedral at Port au Prince. A guard
of honor composed of twelve men was
ranged around the coffin. AS soon as
the services in the cathedral were con-
cluded, he said, the captain of the
guard gave an order and the entire
squad fired into the coffin.
This was taken as signal by all
the rest of the soldiers and the troops
opened fire. A panic started and rush
was made for the doors, many being
trampled upon. Auguste was very
much disliked.
Kemp said that the new president,
Michael Oreste, was very popular and
was trying to place the currency of
the country on a sound basis.
