MAYOR AND CITY OFFICIALS
DUST ABUSIVE "Ex-PRlEST."

l.. J. King, who says he is an ex-
priest and who had been making
speeches in Paterson, n. j., against
the Catholic Church, was driven from
town on February 10.
Mayor Robert II. Fordyce took per-
sonal charge of the police and saw to
it that King did not get into the Audi
torium and that no one else was per-
mitted to enter.
King charged twenty-five cents adj
mission for each of his talks. One
night his remarks so enraged scores OF
persons in the audience that they
hurled rotten eggs and other missiles
at him and he was compelled to leave
the building hurriedly.
A conference of municipal officials
was held in the City Hall at the sug
gestion of the Mayor. Robert A
Mitchell, owner of the Auditorium, was
sent for and told that inasmuch as
King had used profane language ir
the hall the police looked upon thu
place as disorderly house, the pro
prietor of which might be indicted
Mitchell agreed to give King his
$100 hall rent back if the Fire anC
Police Committee would guarantee
him immunity from prosecution, anc
when this was agreed Mitchell wen
to King and gave back the money.

THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES
Contemporary History.

Nero in A. D. 81 had with the con-
placed the rightful heir, Brittanicus,
son of Claudius, and had assumed the
imperial purple. With honest Burrhus
as captain of the Pretorian guard
the last check on the caprices of the
emperors-with Seneca directing the
studies Of the boy-monarch, and with
all under the ruthless but imperial
rule of Agrippina, the first five years
of Nero were years of some promise.
They were scarcely what Seneca
called them, golden quinquennium,
as they were blackened by the murder
of Brittanicus. But the capricious
nature Of Nero i'll bore long the yoke
of Agrippina and the menace of the
Guard. Both must be rendered pow
erless. Meantime a woman as am
bilious and vicious as Agrippina but
with no regard for rank or station,
Poppaea Sabina, obtained complete
control of Nero's affections, and all
had to yield to her power. Under her
influence his wife Octavia was ban
ished and then beheaded, and the
court was surrendered to orgies of
the greatest extravaganza and licen-
tiousness. AS said, one Of the forces
left to stem the downward rush was
Agrippina. But neither Nero nor
Poppaea would brook restraint, and in
A. d. SO he had her, his own mother
brutally dubbed to death. In A. d.
62 Burrhus died and Tigellinus, q
plant tool, was appointed captain in
his place. The license of the court
was now lmfettered. But somebody
must pay the bill. The dagger, there
fore, and poison were set to work.
Confscations of property were in
cessant. Worse STILL people came to
feel that Nero's taste for blood was
not sated but only whetted by the
victims, who thus far had fallen.
Seneca withdrew in mortal dread. The
fatal July 18th, A. d. Ga, when the
great fire was to take place, was at
hand. The air was electrical and
vibrant with mutterings of the coming
storm. Such was the time when Acts
was finished.

SLOVENIAN PRIEST DEAD

Twenty Joliet societies were in the

a member, sent a special uniformed
delegation to the services.

Date of Acts.

One of the dates with which we
can check up tho events of st. Paul's
life, is that of the appointment Of
the procurator Portius Festus. This
appointment was made by Nero about
the year A. D. 60. Scarcely had
the new prOcurator arrived in Judea,
than the case Of st. Paul was brought
before him to be adiudicated. Only
st. Paul'S appeal to Caesar prevented
Festus from liberating the Apostle
forthwith. The appeal, however, stood,
and st. Paul was ordered to proceed
under guard to Rome. Owing to many
delays, with shipwreck to boot, he
did not arrive in the capital city till
six months later, that is, some time in
the year A. D. 81, and he remained a
prisoner two whole years. Now it is
exactly with a statement of this fact
that Acts concludes: And he re-
NAMED two whole years in his own
hired lodging and he received all +. 3.
preaching . without prohibition.
Perhaps the last words are an allu-
sion to the legislation of A. d. a.
when there was such prohibition, or
they may give us to infer that the
written charges of the Jews perished
in the shipwreck. About the year A.
ID. G3, accordingly, is the earliest date
we can set down for the completion
of Acts. The book, for all we can say
to the contrary, may have been com
pleted later, but as there is no men
ton of st. Pauls second captivity
when again Luke was with st. Paul
G. Tim. ", ~, we cannot extend the
time more than short period. The
Acts of the Apostles, therefore, was
published in tho darkest and most
threatening period of the Roman En-
pire. Let us take a glance at it.

BELGIUM's PATRIOTIC QUEEN
PLEDGES HER JEWELS TO Sc
CURE A LOAN FOR HER
COUNTRY.

A loan for G5O.OOO (s25O,0O0) has.
been arranged by King George for the
Queen of the Belgians. The matter
was negotiated through the Kings
private bankers on the security of
Queen Elizabeth's jewels, most of
which were sent to Buckingham Pal
ace after the fall of Antwerp.
The jewels were valued by the Eng
ish Court jeweler at e500,000, but a
number of jewels. including two dia-
dems and a crown, were part of the
state Belgian jewels. Some difficulty
arose in ascertaining the exact jew
els that were the personal property
of The Queen of the Belgians, but it
was estimated that their value must
be at least G1O0,000.
Jewels to this value had been
lodged with the Kings bankers and
the 100000 remitted to Queen Eliza.

st. Paul, Supreme Physician of the
Order, also a witness on behalf of
the State.
Shortly after the work of empanel-
| ling jury had begun the attorneys
for the defendant asked for q con-
ference with the attorneys for the
State and as result agreed to plead
guilty to the charge of criminal libel.
The plea was entered and Judge
Orr imposed fine of $25.O0 on each
of the defendants or thirty days in
Jail. After the plea had been entered
Attorney Morris explained that since
the former trial every effort had been
made by them to obtain evidence in
support of their contention that Mr..
Lawless had taken the bogus X. OF c.
oath, but that they were unable to
secure a scintilla of proof in support
of their assertion.
There was no desire on the part oe
| the Knights Of Columbus TO prosecute
the case further They were satisfied
with the confession Of guilt made by
the defendants. This finally disposes Of
one of the most important cases tried

matter into the court because it was
