DEED IS ALL THAT
 BARS LAND SALE
Stanley Memorial Church Controls
 Property Suitable for Mission Site

A special clause in the original deed to the property owned by the Stanley Memorial church on East street is the only thing that is hold ing up the purchase of the property at the corner of East street and New ington road for the possible erection of a Catholic church, the Herald was informed by reliable parties today.
 It is known that deal is pending for the transfer of property at the corner of East street and Newington road owned by M. H. Rhodes and the deal has progressed sufficiently far that MT. Rhodes has made arrange ments to give up the use of his barns on the property in question. It is said that a Catholic church will be erected on the corner and between that and the Stanley Memorial church a rectory will be built, in case the proposed deal goes through.
 When the trustees of the Stanley Memorial church, which is an off, spring of the South Congregational church, first purchased their prop ty a number of years ago they bought three lots. Two of these lots have DSS1l CSSu LOT IIlS CIluTcn ana the third is still held. Inserted in the property deed was a clause which gave the Stanley Memorial church the right to have a street cut through at the north end of the church con- meeting East street with Willard street. This provision was made so that the church property could al- ways be protected from undesirable neighbors by the width of a street at least However, the sole right of
 taking advantage of or releasing this clause lays within the power of the church trustees.
 The Stanley Memorial church trus- tees have been considering for some time the advisa bility or relinquishine ] this right for sufficient consideration and proper understanding of what l the property would be used for. While ] the matter has not been definitely settled, it is said that there is not
 much doubt but that the deal vii 1 go through as outlined as a settle
 ment favorable to all parties seems 1 imminent.

 After the capture of Antwerp, it was von Moltke's desire, according to the German papers to concentrate eff forts on the Verdun-Toul line, while the Emperor. pointing to the possi- bility of an enveloping movement by the allies or break through the wedge von Moltke proposed to ad- vance, favored the continuation of operations against the forces of the allies in Flanders. This was the situ- at1on which finally led to General von Moltke's retirement and the in stallation of General von Falkenhayn as Chief of the General Staff

Expert Crac<smen Blow Safe and Escape With $1 ,O91 in Stamps and Cash Under Nose of Police

Danbury, June 19-The Danbury post office was entered by burglars early this morning and the safe in which stamps and supplies are kept blown open. The post office is situated near the corner of Main street and Library Place, directly in the rear of the library building, in the heart of the business section. Policemen were patrolling beats only a few hundred feet away, yet so far as can be ascertained only one person heard the explosion. The burglars made a clean getaway and the evidence of their crime was not discovered until the clerks arrived at the post office about o'clock this morning.
 The burglars are believed to have concealed themselves in the lobby of the building when the office closed at o'clock last evening. They opened a door leading into the post office by means of jimmy and in a similar manner pried open the gen. eral delivery window, near which the safe stood. They were expert crafts men and did their work so cleanly that nothing except the safe was dis turbed Both doors of the safe were blown from their hinges. The booty secured by the burglars amounts to s1.O91.76. of which $250 was in cash and the remainder in postage stamps

COMMON LAW AND
 COMMON SENSE
Canadian Justice Speaks at Yale
 Law School Exercises

New Haven, June 19.-Class day exercises in the undergraduate de- partments, anniversary exercises at the Law school and meetings of the alumni advisory board and of the corporation of the university, were the chief events today in the annual commencement season at Yale.
 The seniors in the Sheffield Scien- tific school held their class day cere- monies in Vanderbilt Square during the forenoon, and later the seniors of the college held theirs in the old college yard.
 William R. Riddell, justice of the supreme court of Ontario, Canada, was the speaker at the law school. Speaking on Common Law and Com mon Sense,'' he said that Common Law "is the perfection of human req son--in a word common law is com mon senSe."
 What we call common sense," he said, lis not the old metaphysical common sense, nor is 1t the sentiment which might be conceived from the flow Of lofty and altruistic philosophy, but it consists in the application of the rules of justice and honesty to the things of this workaday world. The real law is always the state of the decisions for the time being, what ever may be the state of the rules supposed to be binding. judge Is necessarily a creature of his times. In our system the judge is not edu- cated as a judge but as lawyer, who handles matters of everyday life and is in close touch with the people. The common sense of the Judge IS not far away from the common sense of the mass of the people,
 Changes fin Common Sense.
 Justice Rtdde11 cited a number of instances to show the changes 9 in common sense with reference to court procedure At one time, he said. "as the common law, common sense taught that any one allowed to give evidence in his own behalf would perjure himself. Once this would sound common sense, everywhere the common law prevailed, but the com mon sense has changed almost every 1 where, and for more than half cen- | tury this theory has been effete.' 1 Tn closing he said: ''The motto Of 1 this university is service. l have 1 been told by one high in affairs of 1 state (not a graduate of this univer- ! sitv) that where some public service | Is to be performed, some office of l difficulty to be filled, 1t is the sons of Yale that are tinctively sought. A great glory and honor, great ex- ample, casting upon this and other recent and coming classes great re- sponsibility the task of keeping that reputation a thing of life, and not letting the old flag fall.
 You may not have the env1able privilege which is granted to my own boys of the University or Tor onto and Osgoode Hall Law school who bear arms in the defense o1 what they believe to be the cause o1 democracy and freedom, justice ano righteousness; but evil is protean anc | YOU, and such as you, have the env1' l able privilege of leading in the figh | against it in every fOrm.'
