Persistent Church Robbery.-It is
now two years since the systematic
robbery of churches, museums and
picture galleries commenced on a
large scale in Italy. Six of the larg-
est churches in Rome have been de-
spoiled at night of sacred vessels and
quantities of silver votive offerings
during the present year; and through
out the country sacrileges of similar
nature have been of rather frequent
occurrence. But nowhere have the
band gone so far in their depredations
as in Avellino, where the parish priest
lost his life in the endeavor to save
his church from robbery. In Rome
churches have been broken into by, it
is believed, the same well-organized
gang, the members of which always
escape without leaving any trace be-
hind.
Government Aids Jesuit.-The Gov
eminent of Madras, India, has appro-

OLD WORLD NEWS.

Relic of Irish observation-disclosures
Massereene has removed from the Ma
tional Museum, Dublin, the Speakers
mace and chair of the old Irish House
of Commons which he inherited from
an ancestor, John Foster, the last Irish
Speaker, and lent to the museum.
He has sent them to Antrim Castle,
his northern seat, pending the estab-
lishment of an Irish Parliament in
Dublin.
Legacy for Catholic SchooI.-Major
William Worsley Worswick, of Nor
manton Hall, Hinckley, Leicestershire,
late of the 9th Foot and of the Lei
cestershire Yeomanry, left 100000 to
his son, the Rev. Thomas William
Peter Worsley Worswick, o. S. B., of
Downside Abbey, Bath, with the re-
quest, but without creating any trust
in that respect, that he will apply the
same in or towards the erection of
school buildings at Downside, or in
the establishment or augmentation of
scholarships in connection with that
school.
Yearly Home Rule Fund.-Last
months subscriptions to the Home
Rule Fund brought the total for the
year up to $4,000. The National Fund
at the corresponding period in the
four preceding years stood at the fol.
lowing figures: 1912, $100,480; 1911
$5S,17O; 1910, $73,15O; 1909, $32,67O.

Socialists Abandon Confiscation
Plank.-Though the usual anti-religi-
Gus note is being prolonged by the
Socialist party in Italy, this body has
wiped off it's slate the proposal for an
other confiscation of religious prop
erty. Two reasons may be assigned
for this change of front, namely, the
extreme difficulty, if not impossibility,
of inducing the present government to
consent to such measure; and the
calculation that the total amount
which confiscation would produce,
would be so small that it would not
compensate for the trouble and odium
of putting such project into execu-
ton.
The Religion of Dante.-One of
Dante's townsmen, Florentine jour
nalist, has taken up the question of
the great poets religious views as
manifested in his writings. After
pointing out that among the most
beautiful hymns in Italian literature
are those composed by Dante in honor
of the Blessed Virgin, st. Francis of
Assist, St. Dominic, and st. Peter, the
Florentine calls attention to the dog
matte precision with which the poet
gave popular versions of the prayers
most in use among the people, viz,
the "Pater," "Ave," and "Credo." Not
the slightest error is discernible in
this exposition of the Greed or in his
20 CATH BULL til
Biblical references. He announces his
firm belief in the Real Presence and
in the doctrine of Purgatory.
Religions in CeyIon.-According to
the latest government census of Cey-
lon, India, it's population is 4,110,367,
of which the Catholics number only

UTILITY CITY is OVER
WHELMINGLY DEFEATED

Despite the pretty day and the busy
period of the ranehers throughout the
district, a surprisingly heavy vote
turned out Monday and the proposed
City of Utility was overwhelmingly
defeated, the vote standing 1853 against
and only 20 for the proposed new town.
large number of the AZ citizens sign
ing the petition to the county court
calling for the election failed to vote
for the City of Utility.
At mass meeting early in the year,
on motion put by A. |. Mason TO the
effect that it be the sense of the meet
ing that a municipal power plant be
favored, the campaign was instigated.
A committee was appointed and II was
proposed to form municipality out Of
the entire Lower Hood River valley,
excepting the city of Hood River.
While the power to construct the power
plant was the main end, the fact that
an intricate system of municipal gov
ernment would be saddled on the COM
munity at the same time caused a
strong sentiment to turn against the
project.
The question of the new municipality
has been thoroughly discussed in the
past few weeks in every distict affect
ed by the proposed new city and fol
the most part the conclusion was
reached that if the election carried, the
result would be disastrous. And Mon
day the voters swarmed in from al
directions. One of the voters says tha
if there had been OK teams in the val
ley they would have Travelled to th'
polls with them.

FROST PREVAILS
MONDAY NIGHT

With a clear sky and no wind, frost
prevailed in almost all parts of the
valley Monday night except along the
lowlards in the Columbia gorge. On
Tuesday conflicting reports of damage
were received at the Office of the Apple
Growers Association. Heavier frosts
have prevailed this late and later in
the season with no injury. However,
the early morning sun thawing the bit

commercial varieties of apples, the
blossoms not yet opened, were un-
touched. Only some of the earlier va
rieties suffering.
J. K. Nunamskre, who owns the
largest cherry orchard in the commun-
ity, stated that his frost injury would

earlier strawberry tracts, which were
in bloom, suffered more heavily than

COUNCIL LENGTHENS
IRRIGATION HOURS

Hereafter residents along both sides
of streets may use the city water both
morning and evening. With the install

night passed an ordinance providing
that all patrons of the system who
have received permits from the water
superintendent may use the water for
irrigation purposes between the hours

were permitted to use the water in the
evenings.

Madrid 100 years ago. affords an illus
tration Of the severity with which the
freedom Of the press was restrained

countries in <hose days. Ferdinand

stored to the Spanish throne as one
of the consequences OF the overthrow
of Napoleon. had become involved in
serious controversies with the cortes,

Era Of Submarines.

The day is approaching when sea
going submarines of high surface
speed will accompany the main fleet
on the high seas. Large vessels Of
this type, of 81 knots speed, have been
designed for the United States navy.
Great Britain is building, in the Maui

ence, which is intended to be as sea-
worthy while on the surface as the
latest type of destroyer. Its surface
speed will be not less than 81 knots,
and 1t will have a submerged speed OF
from Is to 16 knots; It will carry six

WESTERN CANADA'S
NATURAL RESOURCES
PETROLEUM, NATURAL GAS, COAL
AND FARM LANDS.

The developments that have taken
place recently In the oil and gas fields
of Western Canada have but added
another to the many previous evil
dences that have been produced,
showing the great wealth that has
been an unknown asset for so many
generations.
The latest reports from the oil
fields at Calgary show that there is a
production there that would appear
to equal the best paying fields on the
continent. Experts have been on the
ground for some time. 1t is said that
one of the wells is able to produce
1000 gallons an hour. If this is so
there are but about dozen wells In
the world of greater production. Dur
ing the past week discoveries of sur
face indications have been made which
show that oil exists over consider
able portion Of Alberta and Saskatche-
wan, while IL Manitoba there have al
SO been showings. At Battleford,
Saskatchewan, few days ago discov.
cries were made which led to the fl
ing for leases on twenty thousand
acres Of land, all having strong sur
face Indications. Companies were
formed to carry on immediate work.
and in a couple Of months, or probably
less, the story will be told whether oil
exists In paying quantities.
But there are also the coal deposits
and the natural gas deposits that are
helping to make Of Western Canada
one Of the wealthiest portions of the
continent.
With the grain fields covering these
hidden riches it is no wonder that a
continued range of optimism is to be
seen everywhere. Early reports OF
seeding of all grains being successful
ly completed all over the country are
followed by reports of excellent and
strong growth everywhere. During
the first week in June most of the
wheat had reached a growth of from
twelve to twenty inches, with the most
even appearance, almost universally,
that has been seen for years. Oats
appeared equally well. and covered the
ground in a way that brought the
broadcast kind of a grin to overspread
the farmers countenance.
Barley, favorite with the hog rails
ere, had taken good root, and wat
crowding oats for a first place. as to

grasses are getting great attention
