Many mistakes in the war are at

part because they feared the charge
that this course would be considered
unpatriotic.

San Francisco. Dec 3.-Indict-
ments, startling in their scope, will
be returned next week by the federal
grand jury in the alleged anti-ally
bomb conspiracies for which @. G.
Crowley, detective, and Louis j..
Smith are under arrest.
Such was the broad intimation to-
day in federal circles following three
hours of cross-examination OF Smith
before the grand jury. Crowley's
hearing. slated for today, went over
indefinitely.
Smith is reported to have made a
clean breast of his connection with
the alleged bomb plots. Everything
the authorities wanted to know, ex-
cept who was the higher up" be-
hind the scheme, and who destroyed
the Seattle munitions barge, Smith
is said to have revealed under a
three-hour grilling before the grand
jury.
The higher up" however, Is
known to the officials, they hinted to-
day. His prominence in diplomatic
circles is such that revelation OF his
name would create a sensation
While officials do not name this
party, they hint he was here in Sep.
tember under an assumed name, and
that since he has quit the country
fearful, perhaps, of consequences.
Crowley's alleged connection with
bomb conspiracies is said to be def
initely saddled upon him by Smith

 PLACER MINING

Another evidence of the poor trauspoI tauon facilities afforded Alaskans was brought to light to- day when Phil Abrahams received a letter from Fred FOnzo, former L. s. deputy marshal of this city, which was written at William Hen ry bay, on November 15, and was posted at Haines.
 William Henry bay is only a short distance from Comit City, near Beuers Bay, but there is no means ot communication with other points at this time of the year.
 Mir. Fonzo writes that he will remain all winter on his placer claim, and having already erected a cabin, will devote his time to the construction of a Hume and intake which will be about 300 feet long, and the necessary sluice boxes that are necessary to wash out the pay. Mir. Fonzo has his son with him.
 From this date on, the manager Of the Juneau Steamship company have signified their intention of having the Str. Georgia make monthly calls at William Henry bay, and this will be a great conYen- fence to the men located there.

No vo4sls In It.

Many places have curious names, but apparently there ts only one place which has a name without any vow els. That place Is the little hamlet Of Ws, near Paris. Ws being an unpro- nounceable name, the inhabitants Of the hamlet have transformed 1t into 'D'Us," but this change has not been sanctioned legally, and on all tho ofi" ciaI records the name Ws stu appears. The hamlet has only about a hundred inhabitants, and It's sole attractions are the Chateau dOsny, which has been for many years in the possession Of Edmond About's family, and the Cha teau de yigny, which is one of the very best specimens of the renaissance style of architecture.-LOndon Mail

NO PLACE FOR MILES.

It is announced that Lieutenant
General Nelson A. Miles, u. S. A.,
retired, will be invited to serve
as Grand Marshall of the parade
during the National G.. A. r. en-
campment to be. held in Washing
ton the latter part of this month
to commemorate the anniversary
OF, the grand review of 1865. st
Since his retirement from a ctive
service General Miles has affiliated
himself with the so-called Guar
dams Of Liberty, whose 4avowed
purpose it is to save America from
the alleged domination of Rome.
Whatever honor he gained as an
Indian fighter more than offset
by the contempt which all right
thinking Americans must have for
one who assumes the leadership OF
such an un-American aggrega-
ton. No one. would condemn the
Catholic veterans of the G. A. r.
if they refused to parade behind
General Miles at the coming en-
campment. His attitude towards
them and their fellow-C Catholic
citizens makes him unworthy of
the honor which such a position
implies.

LONGEVITY OF TEEToTALERs.

Figures gathered by the life insur-
ance companies all over the world in
dictate that the teetotaler lives about
twenty-eight per cent. longer than the
temperate but moderate drinker, an
addition of seven years, and has about
one-half the average sickness. This
does not, of course, mean that one
accustomed even to a moderate use of
alcohol dies from alcoholism, but is
more likely to become affected by and
ultimately die from many other de-
generative diseases of the blood, kid
neys, liver stomach, brain, nerves and
arteries. 1t is we'll known, for exam
pie, that an alcoholic, pneumonia pa
tient almost never RECEIVERS, and it IL
seldom that one who never touches
alcohol suffers from sunstroke.-E. A.

ALCOHOLIC THIRST.


Alcohol is good only to create a
thirst for itself, says the late Bishop
Cotton, of Buffalo. For thirteen years
attended Bellevue Hospital in New
York; I anointed every week from
twenty to twenty-five. OF these one
half were found in the alcoholic cells,
strapped down and dying from the
effects of drink. l am glad that it is
getting quite customary to exclude
liquors from banquets. After having
too long practised the drinking Gus
toms of Europe we are gradually get
ting back to our own individuality
and to distinctively American GUS
toms. AS our forefathers fought to
establish American freedom, so must
we through our self-denial make sac
rifices to preserve the precious heri-
tage of free institutions bequeathed to
us. .i-A p4AS y l'ls31s1 a .s4Il5f4. ta!9c

for the advantages which their
children may enjoy in the way of
securing a solid Catholic educa-

CEMETERY SUNDAY.


in keeping with ascustom estab-
lished in this diocese some years
ago the third Sunday of this
month, September 10, is to be OBJ
served as Cemetery Sunday.
Next Sunday in all the churches
announcement will be made of
Cemetery Sunday, and pastors
and people will, as heretofore,
make provision for the due OBJ
servance of the day by holding
services in the cemeteries for the
happy repose of the souls Of the
dead.
The principal feature of this
service is a sermon or instruction
on some point Of Christian doe
trines connected with the here
after, in. which the people are ex-
horted to be mindful Of the spir-
itual needs of their dead relatives
and friends, and of all who have
passed away in communion with
the Church.
This annual visit of the people
of parish to the local cemetery
is productive of great good not
only to the dead but to the living.
1t brings the thought Of death
with all it's possible circumstances
forcibly before the mind and i'm
presses upon the true Christian
the need of being always prepared
for the final summons. This as
seQbling of the faithful in a body
to pray for the dead is a practical
profession Of faith in a life be-
yond the tomb and in the Com
munion of Saints. 1t evokes spe-
cial prayers and good works
which are offered up for the faith
full departed, and it brings the
consolation of religion more forci-
| bly, home to those who mourn.
The observance Of Cemetery
Sunday has another excellent eff
feet. It teaches the people the
necessity of keeping the final
resting-places of their dead as
neat as possible. Since it was
inaugurated great change is OBJ
lservable in the manner in which
most of the cemeteries are kept.
Instead of being as they formerly
were in many eases, eyesores In
the community, they are now
made attractive by ornamental
fences, well-kept graves, grass
covered lots, neat monuments and
driveways and walks that give
evidence Of solicitous care.
Under favorable weather condi-
tions it is safe to say that the
number of the faithful who, on
next Sunday week, will pay a
visit to their respective Gene
teries, will be greater than on any
previous occasion.
