He enclosed a notice ad- dressed to Dear Brother and Sister Lithuanians of Waterbury" in which he said the men who had arranged the program for the meeting Were liars and had bad conscienceS, re- questing that this notice be published. In his letter to MT. Kovas. he ad- nitted that he had been invited to visit Waterbury on the 7th to lecture
 on behalf of the European war suf ferers, but added that he had sent word that he would not be there.

 suit of the publication most of the church people remained away from

 As far as can be learned. Father Iebris had no special enemies here and the residents who know him when he was located hero say he was a hard worker and made hundreds of friends. A church was erected under his direction seventeen years ago and he had the affairs of the parish in good shape to turn over to his suc- cessor when he was transferred to New Britain, fifteen years ago. He took the woman who was his house. keeper here. With him, and when it was learned today that sloe too, had been killed. there was general mourn- ing among her friends in the Brook lyn district.

 The murdered clergyman often took occasion to speak from his pulpAt regarding the nature of meet lngs held in the hall and asked his parlshloners frequently to do what they could towards eliminating number of the. many dances It is understood also that he once made a remark to the effect that the gambling in the hall must stop even if it was necessary to close up the building to effect the purpose.
 In conversation today, people fla niliar with the affairs of the church intimated that some of those Lithu- anians who frequent the hall on Park street resented the priests inter fcrences and became quite bitter towards him.

In every national campaign within
the recollection of this generation, the
burden of the argument of the Demo-
Gratis has been that under a protect
i've tariff system the American con-
sumer pays the tax. Although the
statement was denied by Republicans,
it was renewed and reiterated until
many people believed it. Now the
Democratic administration has dis
proved it. Protective duties were re-
duced or removed. Did the consumer
pay less for his food and clothing
According to. the records of this ad-
ministration he paid slightly more
even before prices were affected by
the war. The fact is, therefore, the
importer or the middleman pays the
tax, and, when the tariff was reduced
or removed, the foreign producer, the
importer or the middleman put the
difference in his own pocket. The
American consumer paid no less but
the American producer lost his job.

CHINESE EDIBLE DOGS.

They Are Fed Mainly Upon Daintily
Prepared Vegetable Food.
English bon vivants have tested the
merits of the Chinese edible dog. and
they pronounce it very good dog In.
deed.
The dog Is destined from the begin
ming for the table. Like the edible rat
OF the same country, It is fed mainly
upon vegetable food, which il often
delicately prepared and specially de-
vised. in order to give the dogs nesh
q peculiar flavor and aroma. The re.
suit is something quite different from
the flesh of the ordinary dog Of the
western world.
The genuine Chinese edible dog 10
known by It's blush black tongue.
which is peculiar mark Of its varie>y.
In infancy and early youth the dogs
tongue Is red, and upon reaching ma.
turity and the edible age It suddenly
becomes black. sometimes within two
weeks.
Another regularity Of this dog is its
lack Of the barking faculty. 1t is said
that the dog can bark. and on oc.
casions does so. but these occasions
are rare.
q Many experiments. most Of them un.
willing. were made with the flesh Of
dogs during the Paris siege. New.
foundlands and st. Bernards were pre-
ferred, under the mistaken impression
that they would prove more eatable
than other varieties. They proved to
be detestable in all cases.-Every

IT'S WELL TO KNOW THE LAW

It is we'll recognized maxim that
ignorance of the law is no defense,
but sometimes the guilt in violation
is only legal not moral because the
guilty person did not know he was
violating any law. A case in point
has come to the notice of The Tribune.
A farmer who had borrowed money
and had given a mortgage on his crop
as security, almost-without the
slightest intention to wrong anyone
got himself into serious trouble by
selling his wheat without permission
from the mortgage to do so. It was
so clear that his plan was to sell the
wheat and then repay his creditor that
explanations removed any doubt or
ill-feeling, but by this sale the man
had placed himself liable to charge
OF grand larceny.
It is possible that other wheat rails
ers who are not thoroughly informed
on the law might get themselves into
trouble in the same way; and there
is more likelihood of ignorance on the
subject as the change in the law MAX
ing the offense larceny was only made
at the legislative session last winter.
At that session section II of chap
ter Sc of the laws of the Thirteenth
assembly was amended so as to read
as follows:
"Section II. Any person who has
executed mortgage on personal pro-
perty, except locomotives, engines
rolling stock of a railroad, steamboat
machinery and vessels in actual use
lien or title created by such mortgage
who shall, during the existence of q
remove the same from the county
where said property was situated al
the time of the execution of the mort
gage, or in case of mortgage crop
from the the land on which the sam,
was grown, OR sell or remove sai<
property or crop, or any part thereof
without the consent in writing of th'
mortgage, first had and obtained
