 Very Respectfully.
 J. w. CRENSHAW
 The following is the statement to which Captain Crenshaw refers:
 Leo NJ Frank when brought before Judge Hill to be re-sentenced today made this statement:
 Again I stand before you Again I can but 1eiterGte that I am inno- cent of the murder of Mary Phagan. have absolutely no guilty know ledee of that tragic occurrence.
 'T am innocent of this charge and I assert that the record of the evil dence conclusivelv proves this No appellate tribunal has ever passed on this evidence. The only judge who has ever heard it. stated that he had the most serious doubts as to my guilt.
 My execution will not avenge Mary Phagan's death. A life will have been taken for a life. but the real culprit will not have paid the penalty I will suffer for another's crime.
 My trust is in God who knows that my protestations of innocence are true.
 At some future date the whole mortal world will realize it. It is the knowledge that God knows it now and that the world will know it some day that inspires me as stand before your honor and as I face the future.
 Anything else I might say at this time would be but an elaboration of my words to the court Yet I am fully alive to the fact that my posi- ton is most precarious. It is a situation which is so far removed

the greatest ease, the greatest comfort and the greatest economy.
 Every ounce of energy, every bit of intelligence, every flash of genius, every atom of efficiency in the whole Goodrich organization has been concentrated on this proposition of making tires which will surely give the greatest mileage at the least cost.
 The Goodrich tire user knoUs that right now, today, with all the stampede to meet Goodrich prices, Good rich quality IS not met and that his dollar buys more tire service in Goodrich tires.
 ''As good as Goodrich" is today the plea.
 Let us say to you, in all good faith and with every confidence in the fair-r11ind- ed judgment of the tire user, that no other tire made has in it and of it the experi- ence, the know-hosD and the know-Uhy which govern the selection and the cornbina- ton of the exact quality and quantity of rubber and fab- ric which constitute Good rich Tires.

 We knew that the tire user was buying mileage service-he was buying what the tires would do for him, rather than so much bulk rubber and fabric.
 We knew what our long years of rubber manufacture and tire-rnaking had taught us.
 We knew we were znak- ing tires which had exactly the right amount Of rubber and the right quantity of fabric to deliver exactly the right kind of service.
 We knew that too much rubber and too much fabric would be as detrimental to the service of the tires as too little.

In this he agrees with his opponent,

under the County Unit Law; and that
that prohibition thus obtained will be

they do not want to destroy the vast
distilling properties In the state that

for II they do, they well know that
other property, already heavily taxed,
will have to take up that burden in
addition to what they now carry, and
that without accomplishing anything
for real temperance.
With q state treasury already over
two million dollars In debt, the tax

THE SPIRIT OF EARLY AGES.

The Rev. R. ]. Campbell, Prot
estant preacher, in the course of a
sermon preached in the City Temple,
London, took occasion to make the
following friendly allusion to the
Catholic Church:
Il wish-oh, how earnestly | wish
all members of all churches and of
no church could come to think of
human society as Christians once
thought of the Church universal and
undivided. l never go into Catholic
church without catching something of
the spirit of that older day. In the
silence of the kneeling worshippers,
in the lamp that burns before the al
tar, in the pictures that adorn the
walls, showing the stages of the
cross on which the life of Christ was
sacrificed, that He might draw all
men unto Himself, l see symbols of
the vaster unity that is yet to be
achieved There is solemn stiffness,
a suggestion of heaven and unseen
helpers in that earthly temple made
with hands. 1t is impossible for any
man with reverence in his soul to
stand in that silence without feeling
that it is the speech of God"

even used picture postals, all of which

Here is his letter:

can be fitted up for little ones. l
would be exceedingly grateful to any
body who would send me any of the
following articles: old dresses of any
fabric, underwear, sweaters, shirts,

nants of flannels, calico, corduroy

no matter how small Ct use them as
reward for the girls. Also needles,
thread, tape, wood yarn, scissors,
thimbles, combs, towels. A few old
teddy bears, dolls and used-up toys,
if not too bulky, for the babies. /
can also use postal cards with writing
on them, tallies, glass beads (they are
very fond of them, especially of the
big ones), as rewards to the children.

odd pieces of flannel, and trinkets out
of use or fashion which would be a
great help to me-"

CYCLONE RUINS CHAPEL.

The terrible cyclone that swept
over Texas some time ago, caused
much sorrow to all kinds of peo-
pie, and perhaps none will suffer
more than the Catholics. Much
church property has been ruined. 1t
was hard enough to secure the small
est chapel in the entire state, and
many of them have been destroyed
The other day missionary who has
done great work in Texas, Rev. Gustav
Gollbach, 0. M. l., wrote the Catholic
Church Extension Society. The
church has been ruined Another
will have to be erected-if the people
are to have Mass regularly. Father
Gollbach's heart is nearly breaking.
The donation for this chapel was
secured from a generous priest, and
it will take $500 to insure the build
ing of another chapel. Perhaps there
is no better investment than to give
it to missionary. 1t comes back
SO many ways. The society is anx-
ious to tell Father Gollbach that he
can go ahead and erect another
church for his Mexicans. A gift of
$500 will enable the society to tell
him to build second church-sma
and stronger If necessary on account
of the terrific cyclones to which Texas
seems to be subject. OF course any
thing toward the erection of this
church will be gladly received. And,
too, if $500 we're sent in it would be
a great blessing to the missionary
And the donor would be doing great
things for Gods poor Donations may
be sent to the Offices of the Catholic
Church Extension Society, located in
the Mccormick Building, Chicago.

shown an inclination to come over and
pray God earnestly to hasten the day
of their baptism.
