Laying Corner Stone of New
Catholic School.
lrhe Poplar Bluff Republican.

tThe Poplar Bluff Republican
1t was fifteen minutes of three this
afternoon when the procession of
eleven priests, following the Military
band, which was preceded by George
Sauerwein, deacon, marched in SOL
emn procession from the parochial
residence of Father Frank J. Adrian
to the new school being erected by
the Sacred Heart Catholic church, to
take part in the formal ceremonies of
laying the corner stone.
! 1t was an impressive sight, these
distinguished appearing men Of the
church, as they kept step in perfect
unison, marching with stately stride
on Eighth to Oak, then west in Oak
to the foundation of the new building,
dedicated to the use of the Holy Cath
olic church in so auspicious manner
this afternoon.
There was drizzling rain, but the
members of the church were out, as
were quite large number of other
citizens Of Poplar Bluff, anxious to
show their interest in the new enter
prise which is costing the congrega-
tion small fortune to put over.
FATHER WERNERT A SPECTACULAR
FIGURE.
Father l.. @. Wernert was the spec
tacular figure of the impressive occa-
sion, walking unattended in the CEN
ter of the procession composed of
men of dignity, all standing near six
feet high, with priestly robes about
them.
At the northwest corner of the
school the stone was ready, and Faith
er Wernert read the SD Psalm, then
blessed the corner stone.
ARCHITECT CARRIED THE MEMENTos.
The Litany of the Saints and the
26th Psalm followed, then M. Hast
ings, the architect, of st. Louis. who
carried glass jar filled with a picture
OF the pope, with precious coins, and
other mementoes along with copies OF
the Poplar Bluff Republican and Citi
zen Democrat, handed them to Father
| Wernert, who placed them in the
aperture in the stone left for this pur.
pose.
A trowel, gilded, especially made
FOR this auspicious occasion, was usec
in the formal laying of the mortar
with which to cement the blocks ad.
joining the corner stone, this beins
accompanied by the usual impressive
exercises, by the venerable prelate
who came to Poplar Bluff when it wal
yet a mission in the days between
1876 and 1880.
THE CORNER sToNE SERMON.
Father John T. Adrian of Arcadia
preached the sermon right after the
laying of the stone, making a mos
remarkable address on the word FOR
; WARD, in acrostic form, as follows
Faith from which every vested
springs;
Opportunity improved;
Reverence on hallowed things;
, Work where hearts and handa are
moved;
Association pure as light,
Resolutions fixed and right, >,
Duty lifted with delight.
He made an eloquent play on the
word Forward, along the line tina
now that the church had started alonl
lines of progress that it would con
!. tinue to go forward year by year
growing stronger as it kept step will
the forward march of progress.
The sermon was listened to will

the inclemency.

some Of the signers of the petition
for the election are not qualified vo-
ters Although the "roadhouse law"
was declared unconstitutional by the
district court, the decision will have
no effect on saloons coming under
the act in Koochiching county. At
present the state supreme court is
acting on the matter and it's decision
will be final as to whether or not
the law was constitutionally enacted.
The law is still effective and several
saloons about the north end of
the county will soon feel the results
of it., as County Attorney Jevne holds
that the county commissioners have
no further power to grant liquor IL
censes. Two saloons at Ray will
go out of business on July 10 when
their licenses expire. Others will
follow on July "a and later dates.

THREE MORE MEMBERS OF
MEDICAL FACULTY QUIT

1t became known late yesterday in
Minneapolis that the designations of
three additional faculty members of
the department of medicine of the
University of Minnesota have been
filed. DR.. G. D. Head, assistant pro-
fessor of medicine, and DR.. P. A.
Hoff, instructor of medicine, confirm
ed the rumors that their designations
had been placed in the hands of the
board of regents. DR.. A. R.. Hall,
instructor in medicine, it is said, has
resigned, but he could not be reached
for confirmation of the report this
noon. A new element appears to
have caused the latest set of resig-
nations. While the acceptance by
the board of regents of the Mayo
foundation endowment of $4,000
900, was dominant in the causes as
signed for the four designations last
week, the doctors resigning yester-
day are opposed to the resolutions
passed by the regents silencing fur
ther discussion during the trial per-
iod of six years, in which the univer-
sity is to observe the workings of the
arrangement.

FOOdstufs Arrive.

Paris, June 26.-The arrival Of the
first consignment of foodstuffs from
Switzerland to BE supplied to Luxem-
berg until the harvest is reaped caus-
ed the greatest rejoicing today In the
Grand Duchy. The situation has been
desperate for some time. The Lux
emberg government sought relief
through the American committee for
relief in Belgium which was power
less to act, and lacked cooperation
in England and Germany.
England declined to permit pass
age via Holland of foodstuffs destined
for the Grand Duchy.
Fight to Wars End.
The bill appropriating billion,
one hundred and twenty million dol
lars to cover the government expenses
for three months beginning July l,
passed almost unanimously in the
chamber of deputies. The vote was
492 to 1. Alexander Ribot, minister
of finance, asserted the necessity of
France buying as little abroad for
requirements of the war as possible,
which is one of the most important
economies for the country.
Ribot said he could affirm again
the people of France would fight to
the end, no matter how long the war
might last, and that in the midst of
difficulties France had taken q view
which she should keep. The country,
re declared, would reject with indfg-
nifty any weakness for an instant.
The deputies listened in silence to
the statesman, and the proceedings
were in remarkable contrast to the
disordered session of yesterday.

BY CHARLES w. SCOVEL

Pittsburgh, Pa, June 26.-Busi-
ness conditions are undoubtedly far
better today that for a long time
OF course the current is not yet
strong, save in war order channels.
In many lines little improvement in
actual results has yet been mearsured.
But confidence is here. It is wide
spread now, and is expanding. Peo-
pie. feel that a general forward move
ment is already we'll under way.
Watchful waiting for whatever may
turn up is at an end. 1t has been re-
placed by active planning and the
starting of things. The only eye now
watchful is that seeking an empty
bandwagon seat in the prosperity
procession.
This is confirmed by what l learn
from life insurance men-from COM
pany heads down to the agent cir
culating upon an industrial route.
l consider it an extremely substantial
basis upon which to generalize. The
life insurance agents in their respec~
tive lines reach every class of peo-
pie, few can so soon sense return of
business assurance and pulse its
probable trend.
Certainly this is not a case of
"the wish being father to the
thought" for last years poor condi-
lions in the Pittsburgh district did
not prevent new policies for S5,0OO,-
600 being placed here.
That was substantial gain over
any previous year.
1t was not all "big" insurance.
The small industrial" policy and the
income, and endowment policies writ
ten in four, five or six figures were
represented, each of them, by in
creases.
The small endowment and income
policies probably showed the great
est increase above normal.
Herein it might be said, is to be
found strong evidence:
CD That the business depression
was, as certain we'll known leader
of our national thought and action
has said, largely psychological"
ca That thrift has been greatly
|
times within our own country and by
the smoke and ruin of war abroad.

times can even be successfully urged
to put his money into a policy that
will protect his family against his
death over a certain number of years

When the legislative excursionists

Today, R. H. Schumacher, president
of the Bemidji Commercial club, re-
ceived letter from Senator Fred D.
Vibert, one of the active workers
in bringing about the trip which re-
suited so successfully, in which he
says:

hearty appreciation for the pleasant
and efficient manner in which the
people of your city greeted us and
entertained us.

and long remembered by, us, and we
feel that Northern Minnesota will
be benefited by this tour
Mr.. Schumacher today acknowledged
receipt of the senator's letter and
Informed him that in order that the
legislators who made the trip might
have remembrance of the OCCASION
picture of the party, taken on the
beautiful site of the states sixth

In a letter received from Senator
L. H. Nord, he says: II felt conf,
dent that Bemidji would entertain

ception accorded them. I am proud
that Bemidji is in the district which
represent in the legislature"
