| Siadoux must have learned things
which would disgrace him in the wild
ow's eyes forever, SO he ambushed the
old man on the way home. Then he
fed to church, and. by the merest
accident, Father Chaubard was in that
church and heard his confession.
Having told all he knew, calmness
returned to the priest. but it was an
awful calmness, such as might come
to one who had resigned himself to
the executioner.
Il forgive you. my sons" he said,
gently. Pray for me when my time
comes" -
The brothers hastened at once to
Toulouse to lay their information be-
fore a magistrate, and when the mag.
istrate heard their story his face was
CHASTITY, and his eyes sick with terror.
Better for you had you never been
born," said he. The brothers were
sublimely ignorant of the awful conse-
quences Of their act. They soon
learned that the violation of the con.
fessional was the objectionable crime.
They had the satisfaction Of seeing
the murderer sentenced to death and
broken upon the wheel. but at the
time they were themselves under sen.
tence Of death.
The poor priest, who yielded under
threat Of a terrible death in a caldron
of oil. suffered much worse fate. He
was broken upon the wheel. and, while
still living. tied to stake and burned.
After the punishment Of the priest,
which stirred the people to fury, the
sentiment in favor Of the three Sia-
doux boys became so intense that the
parliament suspended the death sem

MR.. HUGHES ANsw ERs.
Those Who Clamored for His Views
Are Hearing Them

Those friends of Democracy who
clamored so loudly for Mr.. Hughes
opinions upon current issues while
he still held the high office of justice
of the supreme court are now fully
answered by the private citizen, who
surrendered his judicial position to
accede to the wishes of majority Of
the people as expressed through their
instructions to their delegates to the
Republican national convention.
Mr.. Hughes has not disappointed
those who have reposed confidence i'm
his character and Judgment. In his
speech of acceptance he has clearly
set forth the vital issues upon which
the Republican party proposes to
conduct the campaign this fall. On
the platform he is telling the nation
wherein the present administration
has been at fault and what is neces-
sary to be done to restore the United
States to the place of respect and
honor to which 1t is entitled in the
eyes of the world.

q story of enthusiasm.

"Wby, there were nineteen men-good
American soldiers, shot down at Vera
Cruz, and many Nexicans were killed
by our men. That was war. More
over, it was very ignoble war. 1
have heard three explanations of the
Vera Cruz move.
''First, it was explained that it was
made in order to compel somebody
to salute the ilag-somebody who had
insulted US. But the flag was not sa-
luted and has nor been to this day.
Then it was said that the salute was
not what we sought, but to prevent
the landing of a boatload of ammuni-
tion intended for Huerta. The ammu-
milton, landed. however, and it has
been shown that it reached Huerta
in due season without interference on
our part
''When that reason was shown to
be untenable, a third one-and possibly
the real one-fnally was advanced.
1t was said that our seizure of Vera
Cruz was a move to compel the retire
ment of Huerta. 1t seems possible
that this is true. although we had
promised the Mexicans that we would
not interfere in their affairs and told
them more than once that we wanted
them to handle their own affairs.
THAT is why the Mexicans could
not understand us and that is why
they show little faith in our promises"

Just as it is now obstinately shut
ting it's eyes to the need of indus
trial preparedness, for three years the
Wilson administration refused 10 see
the need of adequate military pre-
paredneSs. With war on our southern
border it was content to rely on
regular army that could only muster
10000 available men and refused to
continue the established policy of
building up our navy. When the time
came for action, the country had not
sufficient troops to police the border
and this force has been supplemented
by trifle more than one third the
war strength of the national guard. If
the national administration had had
the ability TO interpret the signs of
the time military preparedness would
have been we'll under way instead OF
barely begun.

the ruling of the A A. u. in regards

On the other hand Manager Johnny
Irving, of the Tenth street mixers, will
attempt to live up to all the obliga-

in this cross-country championship. The
call to arms was sounded at the Tenth

respond was answered by the two veteran
runners OF the yellow and white.
