is making dangerous inroads upon

Members Of the Roman Catholic
church are forbidden to join GER
tain societies or orders and there
are many other secret societies COM
posed entirely Of members Of that
church. OF these latter it may be
truthfully said hat they are a part
Of the working machinery Of the
church, belonging to, and subject
to the authority Of, the church as
much as any member Of the church.
In view Of this il cannot be doubted,
then, that the action Of any Of these
societies is Of, BY and for church
authority.
The pspal press win deny that
this is O fact, but when We remem-
Der that at the recent annual con-
yention Of the American Fedora
ton Of Catholic Societies held in
Toledo, Ohio, the apostolic benedic-
ton was giventto the members Of
the Federation aud that cardinals,
archbishops, bishops and priests as
well ss the American pope, John
Bonanza, were present to give ap-
probation and encouragement to
the various activities Of the Feder-
alton, there can be no question Of
the truth OF the statement that the
Roman Catholic church Is in poll

noon and evening in having Sir

traction at The Playhouse. 1t is the
farewell appearance of the famous
actor in Wilmington. a fact which
will be regretted by every theatre
goer in the city.
On the stage the famous actor
stands distinctively alone. There is
something about him which Is differ
ent from others and it is this differ
ence which has made him the greatest
actor of his day. His is the temper
ament which enables him when pro
traying a character to live that char

him and it is real to the audience. He
feels it, he understands ii, he inter-

Fortunately Wilmington is one OF
the cities which has been included

has the honor of being the only city
of this size which has been chosen.
His appearance here will be a treat

that they will show their appreciation
by filling the house at every perform
ance.

HUMAN bones DUG
FROM KENT FARM
Finding Of Skeleton Leads
Residents to Hint at Muir
der Of Long Ago
SKULL SHOWS
THREE FRACTURES

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del. May 1.-the finding
of a skull and other portions of hui
man body while digging post holes
on the farm of J. Edward Gruwell,
about two miles each of Dover, yester-
day, has given rise to the suspicion
that crime was committed years ago
and the victim buried hastily.
This gruesome find was made by
Alfred Curry a colored farm hand on
the Orwell farm. He took the skull
to his home and intends keeping it
as souvenir.
Evidences of foul play are notice.
able on the skull in three places, a
separation of the bone on the top
one on the side and the other on the
side of the head, which would indi-
cate a fracture. Most of the teeth are
intact.
The skull, with the remaining part of
the body had been buried in a diagonal
position across lane leading back to
the farm and strip of woods. The exact
position OF the place where Curry dug
the hole is fully three hundred yards
from the house. Along side of the spot
there had already been a post and in
digging the new hole Curry found the
bones.
The Gruwels, who own the farm and
have lived on it for fifteen years, have
no recollection of any raised place in the
ground indicating that there had ever
been anyone buried in this particular
spot.
Indications also point to the fact that
the body was buried without being
! placed in casket or box.
Before the Gruwells purchased the
farm it was owned by member of the
Whitaker family. who also owned other
farm land adjoining. The tract originally
was owned by the well known Cowgirl
family Of Delaware. Inquiries among
Doyers oldest citizens failed to reveal
any sudden death or any incident in past
years which would throw any light ON
the finding of the skeleton on the farm.
The possibility OF the particular spot
where the body was found being used as
graveyard is dissipated by the aD-
sence of any similar graves or bodies
adjacent to it.
