Threshermen.

Exasperated because Of the attempts to
secure by ordinary channels correction
of the troubles which ii has experienced
in this county by the use of the improved
roads by traction engines. with cleats, the
Maryland Good Roads Commission in court
here on Tuesday morning. through Stoner
and Weinberg. attorneys Of Frederick, filed
bill asking for an injunction restraining
IL owners Of traction engines in Frederick
county. from operating such engines over
the improved highways Of the State. Judge
Hammond Uner did not grant the injunc-
ton as asked. but set September 10th as the
date on or before which the traction en-
CINE owners must answer, and he then set
September 18th as the date for full hear
ing in the case.
The Commission also recites that it has
had number Of arrests made and that a
grand jury in Frederick county failed to
find any bill against traction engine owners
who damaged the roads. There are now
10 or IL traction engine owners in Fred
erick county under bail for the September
grand jury here.
The Commission will probably resort to
injunction proceedings throughout the en-
tire State. Frederick Citizen.

In sad but loving remembrance of my
dear mother. Rachel Mulican, who entered
into rest one year ago, August 90. 1913.
My dear mother is sleeping so free from
pain,
Oh, wake her not. sweet spirit to suffer
again;
She slumbers so peacefully, oh, let her
sleep on,
Her sickness all ended, her trouble all gone.
Oh. think what she suffered. so racked with
pain.
Night after night we soothed her in vain,
Till God in His mercy sent message Of
love
And took her from all pain to Heaven
above.
BY her loving daughter,
MRS. M. NJ POWER.

We see her vacant place.

as Christianity A Failure? No,
Says The PropOunder or The

Few Christians In The World"

The following letter, written by fellow

To the Editor Of The Sun-Sir: "Educa-
ton, culture. refinement, Christianity. the
civilized world !" What meaningless words,
what empty phrases, Pigments of the i'm

cymbals" hypocrisy, deceit. intrigue. re-
venge, robbery. rapine. murder and desc

The world today protesting the first and
living the last. What commentary on
our Wanted Christian civilization; what
grusome joke TO the heather"
The church largely a failure through
teaching theoretical rather than practical
Christianity.
Is Christianity failure No a thousand
times no; but there are mighty few Chris
tians in the world the most of us are
hypocrites. How many among us would
turn the other cheek" or love thy neigh
Dor as thyself"?
Instead we allow selfshness, avarice and
hate to dominate our lives. Are these not
the foundation of all wars?
A dark picture is this year Of our Lord

but believe there are more good people
in the world today than ever before.

Della Chiesa Elected Pope.

Benedict XIV was crowned with the dig
nifty of the pontificate on Sunday last
The new Pope is an anti-modernist ant
Italian. and will be 90 years of age il
November.
The Giornal DItalia in its story on the
voting in the Papal conclave on Thursday
OF last week says that Cardinal Maf1i had
"a votes, Cardinal Ferreta IL, and Cardi-
nal Lualdi 8. The remainder. il declares
were spread among Cardinals Gaspari,
Ferrari and Pompili
When the Pope was asked to present
himself before the people for the first bene-
diction he turned to Cardinal Merry del Val.
Papal Secretary of State, and said
81 hope shall have strength to over
come my emotion"
Crowds outside clamored to see the new
Pontiff, and several of the Cardinals, in
Guiding Cardinals Gibbons, Farley and
OConnell, tried to calm the assemblage
and obtain silence.
The excitement reached climax when
the Pope finally emerged. He was alone,
and hush fell over the multitude All
knelt, and the Pontiff raised his hand, with
three fingers outstretched, and impaired
with melodous voice the apostolic blessing.
A great cheer rang out as he turned TO
withdraw
Even in the conclave, the election of the
new Pope caused much excitement. The
Cardinals surrounded him and addressed
to him their greetings and congratulations
in Latin. All wished to be first to kiss
his hand.
Cardinals Gibbons and OConnell, who
only reached Rome shortly before noon
Thursday, expressed their qualification at
being the first Cardinals not participating
in the conclave to render homage. The
Pontiff embraced them tenderly and said
he appreciated the efforts they had made
to come to Rome for the conclave at much
personal discomfort.
The choice falls on Cardinal of Italian
birth. as was expected from tradition and
also from the disturbed conditions In
Europe, which initiated against the Sc
lection of Pope outside of the Italian
hierarchy.
Giacomo della Chiesa was born at Pegi
in the diocese of Genes November 81, 1854,
and was ordained priest December q,
1878, at the age of "a. He soon attracted
the attention of Cardinal Rampola, later
Secretary of State for Pope Leo XIII. When
Cardinal Rampolla was made Nuncio to
Madrid he took Mgr. Della Chiesa with him
assecretary Of the Nuncature. On Cardinal
Rampolla's return to Rome to become
Secretary of State for the Vatican, Mgr.
Della Chiesa entered the Secretariat of
State as one of the "Minutamti" or minor
officials, until 1901. when he was appointed
substitute of the secretariat and also Sec
rotary of the CIPHER.
As secretary to the Secretary of State,
Cardinal della Chiesa was brought into
notable prominence throughout the Catho-
lie Hierarchy, but his position was not at
that time of Cardinalist rank. On the ac-
cessOn of Pope Plus X, Mgr. della Chiesa
continued in the secretariat until Deem
Der is, 1907, when Plus gave him
noted promotion to the position of Arch
bishop of the important See of Bologna

Judge f. C. Peter, of the Circuit Court
here. has filed an opinion in the case of
Jasper W. Long VS.. Carrie L, Lucas and Ed
ward d. Lucas. her husband.
Tbs was suit for the specific perform
ance of a written contract by which the
plaintiff agreed to purchase and the de-
PENDANTS to sell a parcel of land. situate
in Montgomery County, owned by the de-
PENDANT, Carrie L. Lucas
The Court made lengthy review of the
testimony taken in the case and concludes
its opinion as follow:
"A decree for specific performance will
be passed. 1t appears from a stipulation
filed herein that an electrically equipped
railroad extending from Bradley Lane
through the property involved in this liti-
after the first day of January. 1912, and
completed in the spring of the present
year, and that since it has been completed
it has been in operation. The plaintiff and
those claiming under him having taken
possession of the property for their pur-
poses in January. 1912. it is but equitable
that Mrs Lucas should have interest on the
amount due on the second day of January,
1912, from that date. In the absence of
evidence to the contrary, it will be assumed
Mrs. Lucas has paid nothing on the en-
Al.
stitution of this suit and the decree will
proceed on that assumption. II. however,
she has paid anything on this debt since
this suit was instituted and she will bring
the matter to the Courts attention. the
decree will be reformed so as to require the
plaintiff to refund the money so paid by
her."
