Mexico, but the President also is
fully aware of them, the matter
having been brought to his per-
sonal attention in September OF
last year when he was visited by
delegation who furnished him
with sworn proof of the specific
instances in which nuns were mis-
treated.
Furthermore, the Washington
correspondent Of the Chicago
Tribune says that the archives of
the State Department, which the
Administration has made more
secret than the dossiers of the
Russian secret police, are
crammed with reports from
American diplomatic and consular
officers and confidential emissa-
ries depicting conditions in Mexico
shocking beyond belief. -, There
are hundreds Of reports of the
numbering and spoliation OF
Americans and the persecution OF
the Catholic clergy and nuns. >"
Does this look as if the State De-
| partment were not fully informed
in regard to the deplorable con-
ditions in Mexico, including the
facts about which Mr.. Tumulty
says there are no official records
on file?
It seems as if Mr.. Tumulty, in
coming to the defence Of the Adj
ministration in it's relations with
Mexico, has done more harm than
good. A man in his position
should know whereof he speaks
and, even if we grant, for the
sake of argument, that "the files
Of the State Department fail to
disclose any official report Of a
single proven case of outrages
upon nuns, f" it is by no means safe
to infer that such records do not
exist. Nor does the fact that they
may not be ION file" in the State
Department Justify the letter
written by Mr.. Tumulty, because
the Mexican situation has been
one Of the foremost questions with
which the Administration has had
to deal during the past two years,
and every intelligent man in the
country knows the story OF it's
watchful waiting" and is quite
familiar with the details of the
persecution Of Catholic priests.

A PATRIOTIC" PREACHER

At the request Of a number of
so-called patriotic orders, the Rev.
Walter Jones has announced his
candidacy for the Governorship of
New Jersey in 1916. As far as
we can learn the announcement
has not caused the Holy Father to
summon Catholics to the defence
of this nation over which, 1t Is
alleged, he is seeking sovereignty.
If a Catholic priest we're to put him
self forward as a candidate for
political office. how long would it
take anti Catholic calamity howl
ers to see in his action confirma-
ton of their belief that Rome is
seeking the political domination Of
this Republic. Thank God, bigots
are proyerbialIy short-sighted. II
given sufficient rope, they IN
variably hang themselves.

MENEETOWN PARISH.

st. Ignatius' Church, hall and pa
rochial residence in Momeneetown,
Ohio, were destroyed by fire on
Thanksgiving night. Some of the fur
niture in the house was saved from
destruction, but not much.
The fire was discovered about one
o'clock in the morning by the pastor,
Rev. John B. Merickel, who was
aroused by the barking of dog. The
fire was then burning in the parish
hall, which is close beside the church.
From the hall the flames spread to
the church and the parish house. 1t
is estimated that the loss is about
$4,000. The property was insured for
$4,000.

The trial of the notorious Tom
Watson of Georgia, whose anti

dictment by a Federal Grand Jury
on a charge of having sent OBJ
scene matter through the mails,
came to a close on Wednesday of
last week when the jury EN-

Watson, who is a member of the

JUDGE EXTOLS CONVENT LIFE

The application by Mrs. Maria Bucel-

the release of her twenty-year-old
daughter, Angelina, from the Convent

came novice several months ago,
came before Supreme Court Justice
Giegerich of New York on November
80. Mrs. Bucellato had applied for the
writ because she said her daughter
told her she wanted to leave the con

will.
The young woman appeared at the
hearing and told her mothers attor.
ney that she desired to remain in the
convent Jerome Licari, the attorney,
said he would recommend the with.
drawal of the writ for that reason.
Tell your client should think she

BIBLE-sTUDY CONTEST.

The Bible-study problem out
lined in the latest issues OF The
Catholic Bulletin offers an enter
tanning and profitable means OF
reviewing one s knowledge of the
Holy Scripture. While the pur-
pose Of the campaign is, primar-
lily, to add new names to the list
of subscribers, the interest which
it creates will serve to stimulate
Bible study. This will be profit
able to those who try to solve the
problem, even though they fail to
win one of the substantial cash
prizes offered. The problem may
appear difficult, but it can be
solved. 1t is safe to pre-
diet that it will be solved
by some of those who send in
answers to the questions. How
ever, if there are not enough cor
rect sets Of solutions on hand at
the time the five hundred replies
are received, the prizes will be
awarded to those offering the
nearest correct answers. In or
der that the five hundred replies
may be secured at the earliest pos
sible date, those who have sent in
their solutions should urge their
friends to do likewise: The fifty
dollars in cash offered for the first
correct solution is incentive
enough for any one to partici-
pate; while the six other prizes
will surely be welcomed by these
who are among the fortunate
ones at the close Of the campaign.

Returning to Honolulu after an alb

Of the Promotion Committee, sees
many changes in the city and brings
back many new ideas for greater

summary Of these ideas. This Is the
greater HAWAII and The greater Ho
noluIu," she declares; and, while
things historic must be preserved and
made attractive, the up-to-date assets
which Honolulu has to offer the tour
ist must be utilized not only for the
benefit of visitors but to maintain the
pride of Honolulu and the pride which
the residents of Honolulu take in their
city.
Mrs. Taylor is an enthusiastic mem.
Der Of the Outdoor Circle. Prior to
leaving for the mainland she was
head Of the Manoa section. Since re.
turning to Hawaii she has visited the
important points of interest about the
city and says she notes many improve
ments which add to the general attrac-
tiyeness of the city as a whole.
"6eautify Palace Grounds
Many Of her ideas for further beau
tifying Honolulu have been drawn
from the work which Donald McLa.
rem, the landscape gardener, has done
on the grounds of the Panama-Pacif
Exposition. Mrs. Taylor draws parti-
cular attention to the avenue of palms
which forms the Fillmore street en-
trance. The majority OF these palms
which, she says, are similar to the

brought from Oakland and transplant
ed in the fair grounds.

she believes the. Palace grounds are

urges that the best care be taken oi
the grounds and the trees, as the
palace is sure TO be rteeea for those
tourists who, as Mrs. TAYLOR puts 1t,
desire to visit the historic part of the
city first.

Mrs. Taylor's broadest ideas for a
greater City Beautiftd' have to do
with Kapiolani park which, as she
puts 1t, could and should be made into
q second Golden Gate park or, per
haps. in this instance. a Diamond
Head park.
While making no cri.icism as to the
present condition OF the park, Mrs.
Taylor believes there are great posi-.
bilities from tourist-entert
standpoint in clearing Makee island,
planting it with flowers and shrubbery
and building a rest house and also a
Japanese tea house She advocates
the cleaning and opening of the la
goons about the island. filling them
with water and putting boats and ca
noes in them to be rented to the pub
lie for a nominal sum-
Improve kapioiani Park"
II have read much about the plan
to do away with the stream which
empties into the waters at Waikiki be-
tween the Moana hotel and the Out
rigger Club" /" she said. Il believe that
the course Of the stream could be di-
yerted so that the water would fill
the lagoons about Makee island. The
water is fresh and salt water would
not be adaptable"
Mrs. Taylor believes that many of
the sections of Kapiolani park could
be improved along the line carried out
by Mr.. Damon at Moanalua. The es.
tablishment of Japanese tea houses.
she says, would bring toll which
would assist in paying for their con-
struction.
With all this work done, taking into
consideration its present good condi-
,tion and the recent establishment of
tennis courts and other mediums of re-
creation, Kapiolani park could be
made into place where both tourists
and townsfolk would spend large
part of their time.
Honolulu abounds In local color,
both modern and historic. / 1t should
be made an item of Commercial value.
We have flowers and plants and palm
trees. Let us use thein to a greater
advantage in beautifying the city and

AT any rate, official dispatches Satur-

of the tragedy on which the state de-

ing the departments instructions Fri

No statement is obtainable in official
quarters at Berlin regarding the sinking

however, seems TO be to consider the
question without excitement. The press
thus far has avoided comment.
