South Bend Ind. Feb. 17-Indica-
tions today are that from 200 to $50
persons will be arrested and charged
with contempt of court as result of
the rioting near st. Casimir's church
Sunday when Sheriff Edward Swanson
attempted to install Rev. Stanislaus
Grusa as pastor.
That further trouble is anticipated
Is shown by the threats emanating
from the west side to the effect that
attempts will be made on the lives OF
police in the squad around the church
Sunday. That many persons were not
killed yesterday was due to the fact
that the police were diplomatic enough
to withhold a display of firearms,
realizing that two-thirds of the mob
were armed, no attempt being made to
conceal guns.

ing out the order of Judge w. A.
Funk of the circuit court that the
Rev. Stanislaus Gruza be placed IN
charge of st. Casimir's Polish Roman
Catholic church.
The mob was composed of about
two thousand men and women and,
after fighting two hours, they sue
ceeded in blocking the efforts Of
Father Gruza to take possession CT
the church.
Father Gruza was transferred to the
parish a year ago, but the parishioners
refused to accept him. The members
of the 600 families in the parish took
charge of the church, barred the doors
and windows and petitioned the bishop
for the district to assign them an.
other priest. This was refused and
the matter taken into the circuit court,
where judge Funk ordered the sher-
iff to place Father Gruza in charge
of the church.
Early Sunday, the sheriff, deputy
and the priest drove to the church. but
were Immediately suounded and the
police were called upon for aid. TWEEN
ty-five officers were sent to the church
and the doors broken open. The angry
parishioners then charged the officers
and they fought in the street.
The fire department was called to
aid the police, but was unable to help,
as the members of the mob surrounded
the wagons and threatened to cut the
hose. Father Gruza watched the fight
fom house two blocks away.

ness" said Judge Stephen Nick Har-
ris, in an address in Denver.
THE man thought he was protect
ing a counterfeiter, but, as matter
of fact, he was proving that he had
once been a counterfeiter himself.
1T reminds me of the young lady
sociologist who went to see a white
slave play in New York. She was sep
arated from her companion, another
young lady sociologfst, by two rows,
and, thinking that the man next her
was alone, she decided to ask him to
change seats with her friend, so that
they would not be separated.
with sweet, demure smile, there
fore, she laid her little hand lightly
on the mans arm and said:
"T beg your pardon, but you are
alone, are you not?'

put his hand up to his mustache and
whispered out of the corner OF his
mouth:

attempted to pull him down on the

Prosperity communistIc.

A man cannot prosper in any honest
business without beneflting the com
munity as we'll as himself. For he
cannot induce men to deal with him
without offering them an advantage;
and, taking all the transactions of life
together, the advantages which men
offer to others must, on the whole, be
equal to those which they receive
themselves.
Doing business, therefore, is very
effectual and extended mode of doing
good; and the fortune which is &C.
quired in doing 1t is, in a very impor-
tant sense, the measure and index of
the good done.-Jacob Abbott.

ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

Roxbury, Ohio.-"When my little boy
was two weeks old he began breaking
out on his cheeks. The eczema began
just with pimples and they seemed to
itch so badly he would scratch his
face and cause a matter to run.
Wherever that matter would touch it
would cause another pimple until it
spread all over his body. 1t caused
Disagreement while it lasted. He had
fifteen places on ona arm and his
head had several. The deepest places
on his cheeks were as large as a sill
yer dollar on each side. He was so
restless at night we had to put nit
tens on him to keep him from scratch
ing them with his finger nails. If he
got a little too warm at night 1t
seemed to hurt badly.

SHORT NOTES OF THE
NATIONAL FOREST RESERVES

Nearly 1000 acres were reforested
in Montana and northern Idaho dur
ing 1913, at an average cost of $3.50
an acre.
The best forested area of China is
in Manchuria The principal tree
varieties are pine, cedar, lareh, mr.
yew, oak, ash, elm, walnut and birch
Two forest officers. in Washingtn
and Oregon, are writing popular de
seriptions of the trees on the Crate

In northern Arizona, Utah, Nevada,
southern Idaho and western Wyoming
the fires on national forests set by
campers have decreased in four years
from nearly a third to approximately
one fifth. Lightning fires have in
creased from less than one-fourth to
nearly onehalf. The relatively larger

AIRSHIPS WOULD
CROSS ATLANTIC

For several years past airmen have
hopefully looked to "next year" as
the one in which the Atlantic ocean
would be crossed in a vehicle of the
air. Each year has brought its dis
appointments; and while the feat will
undoubtedly be accomplished some
day, it seems unlikely that 1914 will
be able to credit that milestone to it's
records. In some respects the event
seems even farther of than three
years ago. While experienced expor-
ers are at this moment battling with
untried routes in the Aantarctic, none
of them has either a dirigible or areo-
plane in his outfit. They have air
propelled sledges, but no air craft.
To the layman the dirigible, though
slower in its movement than a plane
vehicle, seemed the more likely to
succeed; but the destruction Of the
vaniman and several Zeppelins in
mid air has made him skeptical At
present the only suitable gas for the
purposes is hyrogen, the explosive
dangers of which are well known. 1t
has even been questioned whether a
dirigible may not, under conditions Of
very cold, dry air, by it's own passage
generate something in the nature of
the plae blue flame sometimes seen in
cold weather on fast-moving belts. In
which case a very small spark and .
very minute gas leak would be az
efficiently deadly as thunderbolt. In
aeroplanes, construction is stronger
than three years ago, the power is
greater and much more dependable,
and long flight records have been
made. The Mediterranean has been
spanned in flight; mountains with
their great variety Of atmospheric
conditions have been crossed. How
ever, as yet no airman has made .
flight of 1,70O consecutive miles over
water. To the innocent bystander,
who is not supposed to know anything
about flying, it would seem sensible,
though commonplace, for some one to
fly his machine 100 miles over some
inland water, like Lake Erie, for ex-
ample, before casting off the dock
lines on trip across the big pond.
In the opinion of Sir Hiram Maxim,
the dirigible, in war at least, is q
failure. He says: eve have come
to the end of our tether in dirigible
balloons; they are useless and practi-
cally impossible. 1t is nothing less
than madness to sacrifice any more
lives and treasure in attempting what
is manifestly an impossibility.
Some day a vehicle will fly the
gap; it may even be perfected in time
to qualify for the $150,000 prize Of
fered by the San Francisco exposition
for an around-the-world flight. How
ever, the day, predicted by Kipling,
when air craft landing inland will
take New York as a port off the map
may be considered as sufficiently re-
mote to cause no immediate anxiety.

PRODUCTION OF PYRITE AND
SULPHURIC ACID IN 1918

The production of pyrite in the
United States in 1918, according to
w. C. Phalen, of the United States
Geological Survey, was 341 1888 long
tons, valued at /, ,2s6,0s4, decrease
of $3.50 long tons in quantity and of
$4s,l75 in value compared to the out
put in 1912. The production in the
leaing states-Vlrginia and New
diminished slightly; in Califor-
MIA there was an increased produc.
tion; and in Wisconsin the output also
continued to increase.
According to actual returns for the
year 1913 the production OF sulphnrie
acid in the United States was $685.
$50 short tons of so degrees acid, val
ued at $22, 2,366,432 This output does
not include a small amount OF fuming
acid, but does include by-produet
acid-that is, acid obtained in the
smelter industry. The acid produced
at copper and zine smelters in 1918
mounted to 790,296 short tons of 80
degrees acid, valued at $4,346,272,
compared with 764,237 short tons,
valude at $4,240,941 in 1912.

NATIONAL BANKS MAY NOW
LOAN on FARM SECURITY

Under the new banking act, Ma
tionai banks may loan money on
improved farm land security, accord
ing to the following communication
received yesterday by Cashier J.
Sheehan, of the First National bank
from the comptroller of the cur
rency:
You are advised that section "a of
the Federal Reserve act provides that
"Any national banking association
not situated in a central reserve city
may make loans secured by improved
and unincumbered farm land, situat-
ed within its Federal resereve district,
but no such loan shall be made for a
longer time than FIVE years, nor for
an amount exceeding fifty per centum
of the actual value of the property Of
fered as security. Any such bank may
make such loans in an aggregate sum
equal to twenty-five per centum of its
capital and surplus or to one-third of
its time deposits and such banks
may continue hereafter as heretofore
to receive time deposits and to pay
interest on the same"
National banks may, therefore, now
legally make lOdnS secured ny Ttdi
estate. provided they conform to the
requirements of the law, including
the following:
1. Real estate security must be
farm land;
2. 1t must be improved;
3. There must be no prior lien;
4. Property must be located in the
same Federal reserve district as the
bank making the loan;
5. The amount of the loan must
not exceed so per cent of the actual
value of the property upon which it is
secured;
g. The loan must not be for a
period longer than five years;
7. The total of such loans by any
bank must not exceed one-third of its
time deposits, and must in no case
exceed one-fourth of the capital and
surplus of the bank.
In order that the examiner may
readily classify real estate loans held
by bank at the date of his exami
nation, a statement signed by the
officers making the loan, and having
knowledge of the facts upon which il
is based, must be attached to eacf
note, certifying in detail, as of the
date of the loan. that the requirement.
! of law have been duly observed.

GFRLACH WOULD MAKE
HUMBOLDT "HOLD SACK

Evidently officials of Gerlach are of
opinion that Humboldt county is
'holding the SACK for all of the
tramps in the country, and that our
hospital is a sort of free boarding
house.
Yesterday a hobo climbed out of a
Western Pacific boxcar at Gerlach,
and in looking over the sights of the
town had occasion to cross plank
laid over hot spring. Losing his bal
ance, he stepped into the boiling wa
ter, badly sealding his feet and legs
up to the knees. Constable Scott
Butler is said to have bound up the
injured members and placed the man
back in the boxcar, with number of
other hobos.
Arriving at Winnemucca, the young
man was taken from the car and plac-
ed in the county hospital for treat
ment He gave the name of Charles
Policy, and says that he is a teamster
by occupation.
While the people of Humboldt eoun-
ty are humane and will not allow men
seeding medical attention to go un-
aided, they expect their neighbors to
do the same. A bill for hospital fees
will be presented to the commissioners
of Washoe county at their next meet
