CRURCH's GOLDEN JUBILEE
ST. MARY's. PARISH, EVANSTON,
ILL, WAS FOUNDED FIFTY
YEARS AGo-AR c Il B S n o P
GLENNoN AND BISHOP o'REiLLY
PREACHED THE SERMONS.

The Most Reverend J. j. Glennon,
Archbishop of st. Louis, Mo-, preached
at the fftieth anniversary of the
founding of st. Mary's parish, Evans
ton, ILL.,, at the Solemn High Mass,
on Sunday, November II.
For more than four years after its
establishment, the parish was attend
ed from Gross Point and Rose Hill. In
1870 the Rev. Michael Donohue of
Waukegan, H., was appointed first
pastor About twenty-five years ago
the Reverend Hugh p Smyth, pres
ent pastor Of St Mary's, succeeded
Father Donohue. The parish buildings
besides the church consist of rectory,
school and convent. The present
church, an attractive white stone edi-
fee, was built in 1891, and opened in
May, 1892; it has seating capacity
of about seven hundred. The paro-
chial school is exceptionally large,
and well equipped; it is q red brick
building of five stories and basement,
and has ten class rooms and good
sized assembly hall. Four hundred
and sixty pupils are taught by the
Sisters of the Third Order of st. Domi-
mic.
An interesting fact connected with
the anniversary celebration was that
the celebrant of the Mass was the
Reverend d. 2. O'Leary, G. S. G., who
served as altar boy at the first Mass
fifty years ago.
The Right Reverend James O'Reilly,
D. d., OF Fargo, N. D., preached the
sermon at Solemn Vespers.

John Lind who once represent
ed President Wilson iii Mexico,
has very inconvenient habit OF
breaking his sphinx-like silence at
the wrong time. This has already
got him into trouble from which
he has been unable to eXtricate
himself creditably. The only safe
course for him to pursue is to help
the public forget his inglorious
career in Mexico. This, it seems,
lie cannot do. Last week III the
course of an address at the North
Methodist Episcopal Church in
Minneapolis, he said that Henry
Lane Wilson, former American
Ambassador to Mexico, knew of
the purpose to assassinate Presi-
dent Madero. According to a re-
port from Washington, Mr.. Will
son has decided to make Lind

he retracts them. Lind will prob

increased working capital was needed

for an increase of $4,000 in the

PREPARED FOR DEATH
Cut Grass on Burial Lot, Got Hair
Cut, Took Strychnine.

Great Bend. Kan, Aug. 2s.-Sur-
reptitiously preparing everything for
the event and evidently having plan
ned the act several days beforehand,
Allen Curry, one of the oldest resi-
dents of Barton county, took a dose
of strychnine and died within an hour.
He had been deaf for several years
and advanced age had taken all the
pleasure out of life for him and he
died as he had lived, apparently happy
and optimistic for the future.
A couple of days before the suicide
Curry went out to the cemetery and
moved the grass and put the family
burial plot in good shape. He went
to town and had his hair cut and -pent
most of the day following in writing
letters to his relatives and the county
officials. Then putting on the clothes
IN which he wished to be buried went
to bed and took the fatal dose.
Mr.. Curry was IS years old. He is
survived by two SOnS-Hiram. with
whom he lived prior to his death, and
Arthur Curry, who lives on a farm
near Great Bend.

MUCH BLAME IS ON WORKERS

Kansas City, Aug. 2S.-Low wages
are the basic cause of industrial I'M
rest in the United States today. This
dissatisfaction has grown until it
menaces the social good will and peace
of the nation. The workers are pri-
marily to blame for low wages, long
hours and bad factory conditions be-
cause they are blind to their collective
strength and have suffered invasion
Also the great mass of citizens not
involved in the labor and capital
struggle are to blame because they
fail to realize that their own prosper
ity is dependent upon the welfare of
all classes in the community and their
rights bound up with the rights of
every individual Employers have
merely followed the natural bent CT
competition.
Finding of Walsh.
That is the personal finding of
Chairman Frank P. Walsh of the In
dustrial Relations commission, to be
submitted to congress, and given out
here today. Commissioners John B.
Lennon, James O'Connell and Austin
B. GarretSon cCncurred in the find
ings.
Walsh reported dissatisfaction grow
ing against that arbitrary power that
enables the employers to control the
-workman's opportunity to work and
thus dictate the social, political and
moral environment of the Iaborer.
Citizens, regardless of political faith,
are called upon by the chairman to
employ every means possible to see
that the laborer secures his share of
the products of his labor.

London, Aug 28.-The Daily News
in an editorial today has advised the
suggestion that the submarine which.
sank the steamship Arabic has itself
been sunk since and that, therefore,
Germany's disavowal of the action of
the underwater boat commander be-
comes comparatively easy. The edit
Orial continues:
If it is true that Germany is pre-
pared to tighten or suspend her at
lacks, the United States has won a
considerable diplomatic victory.
There is not the slightest reason
to suppose that DR.. Won Bathmann
Hollweg, German imperial chancellor,
sanctioned the attack upon the Ara bic
or desired to aScerbate the relations
with America. The sinking of the
Arabic may be assumed with some de-
gree of certainty to have been the
trick of his opponents, the Tirpitz-
ties, designed quite as much to en-
barraSs him as to drive America to
action"
