WITH MILITARY MASS.

Military funeral services were
conducted at 9 o'clock Wednesday
morning at the Knights of Colum-
bus auditorium for Sister Mary
Jean, who died Monday night at
st. Joseph's Infirmary of influenza
she contracted while nursing sick
soldiers at Camp Zachary Taylor.
She was among the first to volun-
teer her services to the Government
when the epidemic developed. The
casket bearing her body was draped
in the American flag. Majors Phil
lips and Litig and Red Cross
nurses from the base hospital rep
resented the military at the services.
Chaplain Barrett was celebrant OF
the mass. Chaplain Dean was
deacon; Father Murray, of the
knights of Columbus, subdeacon;
Chaplain Donahue, master of cere-
monies, and Chaplain McDermott
and Father Vincent, of the Knights
of Columbus, served as acoiytes.
One hundred and twenty-five nuns
who nursed soldiers at the hospital
during the epidemic were present,
The singing was BY the choir of st.
Mary Magdalene church. Among the
priests who attended were Fathers
Driscoll, Therfeur. Daniels, AL
phonse and Mulally and Chaplaini
Walsh and Biendl. The body was
taken to Loretto for burial.

died brother at Newark, N. J., spent
the first of the week in Louisville
with another brother, First Lieut..
Frank Flaherty, who was trans
ferred to Camp Zachary Taylor
from Montana. While here the fair
visitors were dinner guests of Mrs.
Thomas d. Clines, Audubon Park,
and Misses Hattie and Margaret
Higgins, 1872 South Twenty-fourth

fullest their brief stay in Kentucky.

boats. And yet the local Republi-
can Committee wants the voters
who were gulled into voting for
Smith to again follow the G.. o. p.
fortunes.
Again local Republican adver-
tisement says Louisville must be
redeemed from the gang, not real=
lzing that the public is wise TO
the fact that they are not being
governed by a gang now, but by the
Searcy-Chilton machine, which is
exacting heavy toll. Chesley
Searcy, the real Mayor of Louisville,
who selects every city and county
Fund; his sister, Mrs. H. G. Sand
brother-in-law, H. G. Sanders, is
spokesman for Searcy in the Gen
eral Council, and was allowed to
secure the services of a jail prisoner
for $3.50 per week. Searcy's brother
Roscoe is doing lucrative business
In the Police Court as an attorney.
while negro crap shooters and gam
blers say that their games are pro-
tected by a Mr.. Chesley." So you
can see there is no gang controlling
louisville, it now being one-man
town with Searcy as the supreme
boss. Near Mayor Smith has as
much to do with selecting employees
and conducting the city affairs as
the Maharaja of India. So the Re-
publican advertising bugaboo about
! the gang is fooline no one this
time. as the voters who fell for
Smith are now wearing sackcloth
and ashes and suffering under the
rule of Mayor Searcy, whom they
did not elect.

hour gait. The Mems Federation
who guard and investigate oui
morals might debate this question
at their next meeting: Which Is the
most valuable, the pride of the
Reystoner or the lives of the cit
Izens who cross in front of a forty

Speaking of the Mems Federation

II. A. Davidson, Helm Bruce, Henry
Johnson, John M. Chandler, DR.. ]
S. Lockhart and all the other lead
ers going to do about the uncalled-
for arrest of the photographers who
were taking pictures of gambling
games, scenes of vice, dens oil
Iniquity, etc.? We all know the
Mems Federation spent lots OF
money to bring Chicago spies here
to catch immoral men and women
and they surely must be in sympa-
thy with the men who took pictures
Of such scenes Sunday. Last year
the reform element issued a book
telling of DR.. M. p. Hunts travels
in the red light district and Fedora
lions leaders told how they were
shocked at vice under Democratic
reign. What a howl would have
gone up from the Federation lead
ers if Police Captain like Buckley
mad arrested one of the reform
photographers and broken his
plates. We shudder to think of the
awful storm of indignation from the
good brothers. Anyway if they
don't do little protesting now
they will always be under indict-
ment of the charge of only being
reformers in behalf of the Republi-
can party.

and have to get around quite a
pit, different places each time. BUT
for the life of me can't get any
information in regard to streets Oh

SEARCHES FOR MOTHER.

Rev. P. ]. Philippi, Jesuit
priest, of New Orleans. who sailed
recently for France, had but one
object outside his war work. That
object was to locate his eighty
year-old mother in Belgium. Be-
fore being assigned by his Bishop
for overseas duty Father Philippl
was professor of science and mathe-
MATES at st. Charles College, Grand
Coteau, La. He had not heard
from his mother since the Germans
invaded his native land. He an
nounced before sailing that the first
thing he would do on arrival in
Belgium would be to search for his
aged parent.

way.
The confirmation service took place
Immediately following the sermon
preached by Bishop Gravatt, Of
Charles Town, w. Va, who came to the
city especially for this purpose. Bish-
op Gravatt said we could not enter
into the kingdom of Heaven unless we
are born again. He said there was
nothing OF mere form and ceremony in
connection with our real communion
with God; that the channels by which
offerings to God must ascend must be
real and full of a true spirit OF devo-
ton.
Bishop Gravatt spoke most earnestly
Of this day of needed service and Of
the need Of sympathy and encourage
ment On earth. He told OF Incidents
who brought one hundred pounds
worth Of myrrh and other offerings to
the grave Of Jesus, whom he would not
follow when alive for fear Of his PEG.

Jesus any good and Bishop GraVatt
said there were many Of US like that
today. He told a story Of q valued
man whose strength Of character and
loyalty was worth 50 much to those
all about. This man died and thou.
sands OF men came 10 see him and
brought flowers. After he was buried,
his employer. the president Of q large
company, came to his widow and said,
81 must tell you how we leaned on your
husband. He was a man whose influ-
ence was felt everywhere and we don't
know what we are going to do without
him" The widow spoke through her
tears: "Oh, II you had only said one
word OF that to my husband! have
known him to come home evening aft
er evening discouraged for fear that
his work did not reach the mark that
he aimed for"
Bishop Gravatt said so many OF us
were careless about not offering q
word Of sympathy or encouragement
to many a person struggling with temp
tatiOn. and difficulties Of many kinds
here on earth. That we went ahead
never expressing one word Of interest
until the end. Then we offered splen-
cid sympathy in the flowers We heaped
