HITS RELIGIOUS ORDERS.
Decision DECLARING Vow of Poverty
Against Public Policy Before
Supreme Court.

Washington, March Upon decl-
sion of the Supreme Court in case 20
be considered this week may rest the
future of every brotherhood and Sis
terhood of the Catholic Church IN tne
United States.
The court will be called upon to de-
eide whether the vows Of poverty in
these orders are against public policy,
as recently deci5ed by the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals q
the Eighth District
TIE case in question arises out OF
the death of Father Wirth, member
of the. orler of st. Benedict. founded
about 525 A. d. At the time OF his
death in 1901, Father Wirth was il
charge of the German Catholic Church
at Springfield, MINI.
Nearly 80 years before he took the
vows of the Benedictine Society Of
Chastity, poverty and obedience. He
was then 23 years of age, The effec;
of the vow of poverty was that ali
light Of possessing property on his
part WIS transferred to the order and
hat the latter on its part became OBJ
iigated to eiucate. maintain and sup
port him for life.
Father Wirth became member OF
the St. Vincent Mission Of Westmore-
,and county, Pennsylvania, in 1916
Later he was made prior of mon2s-
sery in Kansas, and about 1897 ne
went to Minnesota. During his life
he hal become such an honored mem
her that his superior permitted him
to retain certain property being poss-
esscd at the time Of his death Of some
IS 900 in addition to royalties from
books he had written.
The probate court of Brown county,
Minnesota, recognized his heirs as
entitled to the property. After Sc
.ies Of contests with the or<er the
heirs succeeded in getting decision
frnr. the United States Circuit Court
10 the effect that the vow Of pov-
erty was against public policy and
therefore void The heirs were held
to the property.

Former Rebel Governor Of
Chihuahua Said to be
Among Victims,
AN AMERICAN KILLED.
Financial District of Mexico Aroused
by Attempt to Manipulate Money
Market.

Mexico City, March 3.-LetterS re-
ceived here say Felipe Gutierrez, the
rebel governor of chihuahua, during
the Orozco revolution against Presl-
dent Madero, has been capturei by
General Villa, and was probably
shot.
During the last few Gays Villa has
executed Alberto Viallareal, Pedro
Gaurjardo, and Bernardo Castro, ali
of whom were prs :l::e.t attorneys
of chihuahua and sympathizers with
the Hucrta government.
Ell Paso, Tex, March 3.-Josepn
II. Harmon, an American agent for
the Mines Company Of America, has
oecn murdered by VIC, ican federal.
according to information received
here.
Mexico City, March 3.-Rumors
that the Unite States would recoc-
nize the Huerta government within
forty-eight hours spread through the
capital today, and, finally, were trac-
ed to financial cause. Apparently
somebody as yet undiscovered, tried
to manipulate the Mexico City money
market.
Am extraordinary amount of the
American bank drafts in circulation
in Mexico City attracted attention.
and it was discovered that the flota-
ton was. in connection with the re
port that President Wilson ma, made
,ap. his mira TO recognize Euer;a.
The rumor was defiant and persistent.
The inexplicabe situation wholly up
set the capital monet market and
bankers were at their wits ends.
The foreign Office refused TO COM
ment on the situation and Nelson
O'Sh1ughnessy, American charge,
could not account for it.
A Carranzarista here today says
General Villa does not mean to AT
tack Torreon. He said Villas forces
ground Torreon we're mere bluffs to
fool the fedcrals and Graw thclr ire.
When Villa is ready. to strike. he sal.
ne viii attack the city of Guadalajara.
which is only a ten-hour journey from
Mexico City. The outpost captured.
Villa would Immediately move or the
capital.

Ian on Sunday she'll tore through

people can enjoy day spent here among us.
 A public rest room is almost cer- tain. For the past few days the W. .C. T. U. have been trying to find out to what extent the people of Springdale are in favor of rest room. Now. if every one would get back of this movement it would not be hard on any one, but it takes CO operation to make any line of public work success.
 Now, many have been very liberal with their donation toward this rest room fund, but not sufficient amount has been raised to make it d suc- cess Everyone will grant that place of this kind is very much needed where mothers and children can have rest and comfort while spending the day in town, but not ev- eryone is willing to help make this room possible. It would be almost i'm possible u see all who are willing to help in this in this worthy cause so We are going to ask that everyone who will give to heap=us get this room either by money. work or some piece Of furniture to furnish room, please notify Jhe rest room committee, Mrs H. e Hankihs= or Mrs. Hickman Phone 52zf27. Any thing you do to advance this work will be much appreciated not only by the N. C T. T. but by the peo- pie who will enjoy the comforts of public rest room.
