MAYOR SPEAKS AT
LONGFELLOW SCHOOL

Despite the threatening weather.
more than 100 persons gathered at the
Longfellow school. to hear the mayors
talk on gardening the vacant lots In
Boise. While not yet in a position tt
say just what reduction in the cost Of
water would be, he was quite sure II
putting in all the ground suitable.
The mayor made lifelong friends Of
the boys and girls by evincinE an IN
terest In lawn tennis and baseball, pro-
missing to find a pitcher who could
teach them to pitch curves.
1t was an open meeting and several
questions were asked that had no
bearing on the garden problem.
The music by the Coffin sisters trio,
was up to their usual standard. Two
of them are now in high school and
one still a student at Longfellow, but
all Longfellow girls. The Rotations
by Lucille Gray were appropriate to
the times and the weather and brought
. forth laughter from all. The duet play
ed by Venice and Rowena Reese show
ed the effects Of a good teacher and
careful practice.
Miss Marian Kinney sang two charm
ing songs and was applauded over and
over. But to Master David Gray came
the honor to bring down the house. His
first song, THE Wee Little Bird in
the High Oak Tree" brought the usual
clapping of hands and he responded
with THE Shoemaker" and then ev-
eryone cheered. David is six years old.

New York, April 23.-It is the Braves
again who are proving the stickers in
the side of the Giants With five vic
tories last week and only one defeat,
they lead the New Workers, who won
four and lost two, but they are slightly
in the rear of John McGraW's elan on
the league standing.
The Cardinals nd Braves performed
the same stunts. each winning a quiR-
tet of games. In the case of the Car
dinals, 1t may be an exhibition Of
early-season pep" but with the Baves
1t is different. After surrounding 10
the Giants in the opening series they
came to New York and 81 far have
dumped the favorites for one fan out
of two starts. They are carded for
another crack at McGraw today.
Philadelphia turned up with the
poorest record of the week in the Ma
tional league, winning only one and
losing five. The champion Dodgers
won two and lost four.
Pitching fragility seems to have de-
sc ended on Philadelphia and Brooklyn.
Neither of these clubs, eacn given a
chance in the race, has started because

The relations of the ostensibly married
couple are not those of husband and wife,
but are practically the same as those of the
priest and his "house- keeper
Or, those of the priest and his favorite nun.
In the coarsest, vilest filthiest, most ma];g
nant terms, the popes have stigmatized all
Protestant marriages as illicit, illegal, con-
cubinous, sinful, ''legalized prostitution"
"flthy concubinage,' &c.
Such utterly insulting, insolent, lying
language, used by such detestable popes as
Plus TX, and Leo NH, merely repeat the
substance of the decree of Trent, published IN
1868.
With cynical cruelty and contemptuous dis
regard of the laws Of the land, thu popes
subjects, who are 0ath-bound aliens, have in
troduced that infamous foreign decree into
the United States and have enforced it, to
the disruption of legal marriages, the desc

According to Blackstone's Commentaries,
Bishop Kelley is guilty of treason, having in

Under the English law, he would have been

Not because he is Catholic: not because
he can Latinlze cup of wine into Gods blood,
and drink his Creator: not because he claims
that he can pray out of Purgatory the souls
of the first-born, slain that night in Egypt:
not because he is an ancient Pagan, smeared
over with the thin veneer of Christian nomen-
