VIII Accept Any Ruler,
Says Speaker, in Order to
End Present Warfare.

Pittsburg, Pa. April Rev. Francis
c. Kelly, of Chicago, president OF the
Catholic Church Extension society, dis
cussed Mexico and the American
church Tuesday before an important
gathering of clergymen here. The Oc-
casfou was the dedication of the synod
hail and chaneery building Of the do
cese Of Pittsburg-
DR.. Kelly said that present day diff
culties in Mexico wwere largely because
OF these questions; The right Of con-
science, land and education.
Mexico, he said, had been without
anything like freedom OF conscience
for over 80 years Church property had
been confiscated to the state by Juarez
and had never been returned Religious
schools were closed and orders of teach
ers disbanded. No outward manifesto
ton Of religion was permitted. even dis
tinctive dress OF clergymen being pro-
hibited in the streets In the large
cities schools were supplied by the
state, but outside such communities
Mexico practically had no schools The
state has never been able to supply
them and the church was not allowed
to do so.
VIII Accept Any Ruler.
THE church has avoided incerfec-
ence in political affairs" said DR.. Kelly,
'-and churchmen are VIGOROUSLY timid
even about their own defence The
derO. She will accept whatever legiti-
mate ruler comes out Of the present
chaos.
The story Of the present revolution
in Mexico is far worse than the story
OF the first revolution in France. It
is horrible in the extreme Murder has
been one Of its minor faults, relatively
speaking. Though attempts we're made
to deny outrages against the sisters,
they are now admitted; but the worst
Of this story has never been told One

IF the United States is TO be the
friend and sister of Mexico to the ad-
vantage of both, our citizens must rid

RECRUIT UMPIRE is A GIANT
Dominick MuIlaney Is Feet, Inchee

tive of Kentucky.

American league players who have
thoughts of mixing things up with
Dominick ]. Mullaney, latest addition
to Ban Johnson's staff of umpires, will
think twice before doing so. He has
the build of a white hope, weighing
225 pounds and being six feet, three
inches tall. Mullaney is a native of
the Blue Grass state, having been born
in Louisville, November 9, 1877. Nine
teen years later he played his first
professional ball under John McClos-
key, present Red scout, at Dallas, in
the Texas league. After that Null
laney pastimed in the Virginia, South
Atlantic, Southern, Blue Grass and
Three-Eye leagues and American as
sociatlon, among the clubs he was
connected with being Rock Island,
Bloomington, Columbus, Savannah,
Montgomery and Jacksonville. He was
the leader of the Floridans for four
years, and they won the pennant under
his direction in 1908. Mullaney also
managed the Montgomery club of the
Southern league and the Savannah
team of the South Atlantic league.
Among the famous players Mullaney
has been in the same leagues with are
Christy Mathewson, Ty Cobb, Nap
Rucker, Joe Jackson, Jimmy Archer,
Mordecai Brown, Harry Sallee the late
Addie Joss and all the members of the
Delahanty tribe with the exception of
the lamented Ed When MulIaney was
an able athlete first base was his po-
sition. His highest batting average
was i'll 1901, when he hit 313 for the
Rock Island club of the Indiana-Iowa-
Illinois league. For Montgomery of
the Southern league, in 1908, he hit
300.

driver that he wanted him for the next

was recognized as one of the leading
department store buyers, and no one
thought anything about his presence
except that it was rather an early hour
to be doing business.

After due deliberation and in con-
sideration of the large order the flag
dealer decided to let him have his en-

Mr. FEEDER stayed in this wareroom
long enough to close up the deal and
then dashed to the cab waiting for
him and hurried to the next wholesale
flag dealer.

II am looking for some flags. If l take
all you have on hand what terms will
you let me have on them?"
"Well,' mused the dealer, seeing
it is you and seeing you want all ]
have, and seeing that your house pays
promptly and seeing that there isn't

them go at fifty and ten off the list"
