LEGENDS OF THE CROSS.
Why Elder Tree is Immune From
lightning and Mistlstoe 10 a Vine.

Did you ever have a recently immi-
grated Scot advise you to take refuge
during a severe thunderstorm under
an elder bush-"because lightning
never strikes the elder?" Do you
know that there are not more than six
authentic Instances of the striking Of
an elder or any building in the near
vicinity of an elder, by lightning? The
scientists have a dry-as-dust explain
alton for this freak of nature; but the
Scotch know the real reason: Christ's
cross was made Of the elder tree. For
merry 1t was a stately. handsome dem
izen OF the forest, but after its cruel
use It received a blight, so that 1t
could no longer attain dignifed pro-
portions. 1t was doomed to remain d
shrub. but 1t was exempt from the
wrath Of Jove, who flung the thunder
bolts.
In various parts of the world, legend
explains the peculiarities OF other trees
by the statement that the cross or a
part of 1t was made from the wood OF
n OF their brethren. In Englanu inc
aspen, sometimes called the trembling
poplar. is said to have acquired the
nervous CULVER of its leaves when the
trunk of an aspen was used for the
shaft of the cross. In Wales, 1t is re-
lated that the mistletoe was Formerly
a great, handsome tree, but because II
furnished the arms of the cross 1t was
condemned to become a parasite on
the tree that refused to serve the per-
secutors. The most interesting OF all
these legends is that told Of the wake
robin, or marsh Gala lilly. Its berries
are red because 1t grew at the foot OF
the cross where 1t received the pre-
cious drops Of blood, and Its root Is
bitter with shame and sorrow.

The Peace At Any Prices.

At the arbitration conference at
Lake Mohonk many a bellicose note
was struck.
1.-THE day Of International arbitra-
ton has not yet come" said Professor
John Bassett Moore of Columbia at q
luncheon. What is happening over-
seas today shows us clearly that the
little girl was right in her scorn for
the peace-at-any-price party.
Suppose, my dear said this little
girls teacher, that a bad boy should
strike you. and the next day you
should give him an apple. Now that
would be one way Of returning good
for evil, wouldn't It? And what dc
you think the bad boy would do then?

the little girl. to get another apple

Copper Mining in Connecticut.

Engineering and Mining Journal)
The dumps of the old copper mine

are attracting the attention Of some
local men, who hope to get some cop
per out of them by modern methods.
This mine, which was first opened in
1886, is said to have a shaft over 400
feet deep. Connecticut does not rank
as a mining state, and it will be a
surprise to most people that there is
"a mining shaft 400 feet deep within
Its boundaries.

ATTACKS ON STEWART
SAID Be UNWARRANTED
NEW YORK BROKERAGE FIRM
REPLY TO RECENTLY PUB
LiSHED CHARGES.

A recent review of the stock market
by Rogers. Norton & Co, of New York
replies to the charge made recently by
George Graham Rice in his Mining Age
that the ore reserves of the Stewart
Will soon be exhausted. Mr.. Rogers
recently visited this district and what
his firm says is no doubt based on d.
rect information regarding the mine
received while here. He says:
irresponsible Attack.
1.-THE attacks made upon the Stewart
mine by certain irresponsible brokers
seem to have been actuated with ul-
terror motives. Much is being made of
the fact that the ore reserves in the
Stewart property are practically work
ed out. 1t has been we'll known since
the decision Of the apex suit with the
Ontario people, that the Stewart vein
would be lost to the Stewart Mining
company when it had been worked up
to the Ontario line. There is nothing
new about this. but when these people
who may be short of the stock declare
that the best posted men in the Occur
d'Alene district regard the Occur
d'Alene Development property of little
account, that statement Is absolutely
untrue, for we ourselves have V
ed personally with some of the best
posted men in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict and they all declare the property
to be of exceptionally good promise. In
the upper workings it has produced
more than 1000, 900 in value.
1.-THE Stewart Mining company is
driving to tap the vein at lower levels.
1t Is a well known fact that there has
never been a fissure vein bottomed in
the Occur d'Alene district.
Quotes Manager Bacon.
mfr. Bacon, the ngineer In charge of
the property, told a member of this
firm that in his opinion 1t would re-
quire about three months for the cross
cut to reach the vein in the Occur
d'A1ene Development property and that
the ore reserves left in the old Stew
art workings were sufficient for about
six months supply. Therefore, he had
idea that there would be any inter-
in the payment of the regular
dividend of 10 cents a share quarterly.
Again, If there was n probability
of a lack of funds for the development
of the Quatsino Copper property, be-
longing to the company, 1t is not rea-
sonable to presume that the board Of
directors, made up of reputable bust
ness men, would declare the regular
quarterly dividend as they did last
week and thus hazard the company's
I'VE believe in Stewart Mining, and
we caution the stockholders not to be
frightened out of their holdings bv
anyone who may be short Of the stock

1t is Of faith that the Pope has the
right Of depOsing heretical and rebe
kings. Monarchs so deposed by the
Pope are converted into notorious
tyrants and may be killed by the first
who can reach them. If the public
cause can not meet with it's defense
in the death of a tyrant, it is lawful
for the first who arrives to assassinate
him.
Think of it, The holy Catholic
Church of the Infallible Pope decree
ing the murder Of every one who is
so presumptuous as to reject that
church, They say they will deliver
us to the secular powers for execu-
ton and if these secular powers re-
fused to do their duty, any member
Of the Catholic Church is authorized
to do it, and is promised a full in
diligence and blessed reward if he
does it.
Bear in mind, friends, that this
decree of the Catholic Church has
been put into most awful and deadly
effect, whether that church has OBJ
tanned sufficient power to do it, The
bloody days Of the InQuisition bear
horrible testimony to that fact. Dur
ing those terrible days, those who re-
fused to become Catholics were
burned, hacked to pieces, drowned,
choked, suffocated and in every con-
ceivable way tortured and killed.
Thousands upon thousands of lives
lation decreased, instead Of gaining,
IN seventy years, from 100000 to
100000.
Thank God, not a country now Will
stand for such ecclesiastical butchery.
The InQuisition has been driven. to
the wall Of the Vatican But it is the
beast Of Rome that she never
changes. Upon the authority Of their
own laws, l say that if the Catholic
Church had the power today in the
United States she would set her men
in to eXterminate every last Protes-
tant Of us, just as she did in Crusad-
ing days and in the case of the Sara
Gems.

her position with regard to heretics,
Or Protestants. The Rambler" one
Of the most prominent Roman Cath
Ole papers in England, some years
ago, says: You ask if the Pope
were lord Of this Land and you were
in minority, what would he do to
you? That, we say, would depend
entirely on circumstances. If it would
benefit the cause of Catholicism, he
would tolerate you ;if expedient, he
would imprison, Danish you; proba-
bly, he might even hang you But be
assured of one thing, he would never
tolerate you for the sake of your
ngious liberty"
In the TheOlogia Morals, page
1877, we read, "a man who has been
accommodated by the Pope may be
killed anywhere, as Escobar and
Deaux teach, because the Pope has
an indirect jurisdiction over the
whole world, even IN temporal things,
as all Catholics maintain, and as
Suarez proves against the King Of
England" Does that look like the
Roman Church condemns murder?
La Croix says: ga man condemned
by the Pope may be killed wherever
he is found" (Vol. 1, page 294.)
No, the Roman church does not con
denim the man who murders a PrOtes-
tant or hereto. The Roman Church
does, however, encourage it's mem
bers to murder Protestants and
heretics. Pope Urb&n H., Decree.
1888, says: ''Those are not to be
accounted murdcrcrs or honlicides
who, wBren burning with love and
zeal for their Catholic mother against,
communicated Protestants. shall
happen to kill a few Of them"
But the Catholic Church does not
stop with encouraging the murder of
Protestants. 1t actually commands

The Council Of Lateran, A. D.
1915, decreed, and that decree is still
binding: eve excommunicate and
anathematize every heresy that ex>

orthodox and Catholic faith, con-
demning all heretics, by whatever
name they may be known. Secu-
lar powers of all ranks and degrees
are to be warned, induced and, if
necessary compelled by ecclesiastical
censure, to swear that they will exert
themselves to the utmost in defense
of the faith, and TO EXTRT PATE

a woman are married by Protestant
preacher. After a few years he gets
tired Of her. He falls in love with
another woman, who happens to be
a Catholic. The Catholic priest tells
him that the first marriage was no
marriage, anyhow. Get a divorce
from the civil law and come right
back to me and I will marry you to
the one you love and send you on
your way rejoicing. This has been
done hundreds Of times, thus putting
the stamp Of the Catholic Church
upon adultery in the eyes of God
and man.
Nor is that ALL The Catholic
Church winks at and condones adu1-
terry in another way, and that is in
the dispensations frequently granted
by the Pope, authorizing "a member Of
that church to put away his wife and
marry another.
The Catholic Church long has
boasted that it stood against divorces.
Yet this law of the church has been
violated time and again by the Pope
himself = usually, however, in the
case of kings or others, who are able
to remember the church with a fat
purse by way of gratitude.
Notice just few Of them to sus-
tain my contention:
The Pore desired to unite Spain
and England against his old enemy,
Louis XII, of France. So the Pope,
while Henry VIII. was still true
Catholic, granted him a dispensation
to marry his brothers wife, and
would have granted as many more di-
vorces as Henry desired, if his poll
tics had continued to suit the Pope.

Yet they boast of the "Holy Cath
Ollie Church. 1t is "HOlely," all
right. Just as full of them as a
seiVe.
7. That the Roman Catholic
Church, as system, not only does not
Is condemn, but condones, and in many
cases, actually commands the COM
mission of the most revolving crimes,
is shown by the position OF that
Church in regard to MURDER.
I expect to prove from Rome's own
laws and declarations, that murder,
especially OF Protestarts, is not con-
denRed, is permitted, encouraged and
actually commanded by~that church.
Molina, in his work, page 1925,
says: IAN adulterer may lawfully
kill the husband of the woman, if
the husband, having surprised him
with his wife, do assault him." On
page 1866, he further says "A thief
having entered into house to steal,
in conscience may kill him who would
punish him for his theft, if he can
not escape otherwise" Again, in
page 1853 Vol g. DisDut 16) he

not steal. Rome says you may.
In Crisis Theolog. Diss. %, cap.
2, Art. 1, page 474, Cardenas
says: Servants may secretly steal
from their masters as much as they
judge their labor is worth more than
the wages they received" In other
words, if you have a Catholic work
ing for you and you pay him $4,000
per month, and he feels like his
wages should be $4,000, the Cath
Ollie Church teaches he has the right
to steal that extra $4,000.
Gordonus says: "a woman may
take the property of her husband, to
supply her spiritual wants, and to
act like other women" Sympathy
for many women makes me almost to
agree with the Catholics here.
Francis Xavier Fegei says (Pars.
3, cap. 6, quest. II, page 1889:
after a son has secretly robbed his
father as compensation, the coz
fessor need not enforce restitution, if
he has taken no more than q just re-
ward for his labor
And even in cases where stealing
is stealing in the eyes of the Cath olic
Church, it has a sliding scale, which
fixes the amount Of the sin for the
stealing according to the amount of
the property stolen. If you steal
much, the s;n is great; if you steal a
little, the sin is small. Now, back
to one of their greatest interpreters:
Liguori says: There are many
opinions about the amount which
may be stolen to constitute a mortal
sin. Navar has said, too scrupulous-
ly, that to steal half piece of gold
is a mortal sim while others, too lax,
hold that to steal less than ten pieces
Of gold, can not be a serious sin.
But Tol, Mech, Less, etc, have more
wisely ruled that to steal two pieces
of gold constitutes a mortal sin. -.
If any one steals small sums at diff
ferent times either from the same or
different persons, not having any in
tention of stealing large sums, nor
causing great damage, his sin is not
mortal"
Rome evidently proceeds on the
theory of a little childhood jingle
used to hear:
faint a sin to steal the wind;
IT'S a sin to steal pin;
IT'S the greater to steal a later;
'Tis the bigger to steal a niger.
Z
1t certainly does not recognize the
principle that stealing is stealing, and
that there is no difference in the prin-
ciple before Almighty God in the
stealing Of a penny and the theft Of
million.
6. Our proposition is proven by
the position of the Roman Church
in regard to ADULTERY.
Despite the command of God, thou
shalt not commit adultery" the Cath
Ollie Church, in many ways, condones
and permits the commission of this
awful sin and crime.
LigHori, in his Question 2, asks the
question, May servant bring lad
der and help his master to go up and
commit adultery? BUss and others
think that he may do it, and / am of
the same opinion
Mr.. Gladstone, that grand old man
of England, in his "Romanism and
the RepwbEic," pages ga and 275,
shows how the crime of adultery has
the sanction of the church in this
wise: THE Catholic Chu, CHI deny
all civil and Christian marriages to
be true and lawful marriage when
not performed within the Roman
Catholic Church, and Pope Plus TX.
calls it "filthy concubinage. They
have divided between husband and

sition is proven by the posi-
ton of the Catholic Church
with regard to STEALING.
