A VALIANT CASEY
G { ENE ERAL PETAIN n 20 r S
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
HERO.

A year ago this time it was, the
midsummer moon flooded the muddy
fields Of France in brilliant light. Up
in the front line in the Fon du Lac
woods, near Pont-a- -Mousson, the
enemy was ripping big holes in the
SD Division positions, and the 325th
regiment was cut off from supplies.
In the clear moonlight it was sui
eide to rush supplies to the upper
trenches, and none tried it. Then to
the amazement of the Americans, a
Casey a tremendous big fellow he
was, climbed over the parapet, and
dragging a huge burlap bag after him,
crawled through the CRIME to bring
his boys smokes, chocolate and dough-
nuts. Within a few yards of the COM
municatiOn trench, the exploding
shells closed nearer and nearer to the
big fellow, and then he lay fiat and
still in the shadow of shell hole. A
terrific explosion, the enemy had
found the range, and they picked up
Casey" his leg blown to bits, but
smiling:
Il got few smokes for you kids"
That was the way it happened, and
last week Joseph Patrick Grove, the
fearless K. of c., received word in
his home in Binghamton, N. Y, that
General Petain, commander of the
French armies, has awarded him the
CroiX de Guerre with a gold star
The citation was issued May 5, and
he was then praised for his bravery
in the Argonne when he was wounded
again.

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE
A POLICY ECONOMICALLY UN-
SOUND.

You may have often heard it said
that no government could afford to
deprive itself of one of it's chief
sources of revenue by prohibiting or
even by notably restricting the liquor
traffic. This in fact has really been
one of the greatest deterrents to re-
form, one of the greatest obstacles to
the legal restriction of the drink
traffic, in modern times. Now, won't
discuss the question whether it is
wise craftsmanship for any govern
ment to make the decentralization Of
the people channel for raising rev.
enue, whether by doing so it will not
pay too dearly for it's revenue in the
long run, or whether such a practice
is morally defensible; the story of
England's connection with the opium
trade in China in our own day will
remind us that unfortunately govern
ments are not always Influenced by
ethical considerations in such matters.
| will not discuss those aspects of the
case. But looking at the matter from
the purely financial and economic
standpoint, l want you to grasp this
fact-and | wish the people of this
country generally would grasp it-that
the policy of using the drink traffic
primarily as a channel for collecting
revenue is an economically unsound
policy. And l am glad to be able to
say that progressive governments are
beginning at last to realize that it is an
&c
Because, although an excessive LIQUOR
traffic is an easy means of collecting
revenue, it is a terribly sure way of
impoverishing the people and increas-
ing the need for government expendi-
ture. 1t means that millions of the
easily collected revenue must be ex-
pended annually on jails and reforma-
tories, on warehouses; and asylums, on
police supervision, in word, upon the
very victims of that same drink traffic
millions that would not be needed at
all for the government of a temperate
people. If the people of a nation are
temperate the taxes will necessarily
be lower because the national expendi-
ture will be lower; the people will be
more prosperous and better able to pay
| these taxes; and they can be levied
| through other channels than the
ruinous channel of an excessive drink
| traffic.
| This elementary truth has been
we'll known to British statesmen for
! generations, though the British Par
lament has been too completely in the
power of the drink interest to dare to
act upon it.

All the great questions before
the public today have their
Catholic point of view, and it
would be well if our young men
could master them sufficiently so
as to take a decided stand. Ask
the average young Catholic what
is the Catholic point of view on
any one you may choose Of the
great social questions so much
discussed, and you will find that
he doesn't t know there is Catho-
lie point Of vieW-unless he hap
pens to be one Of the few who
read a Catholic paper. The point
may be SO broad, Of course, that
his conscience or his catechism
may supply the answer. But fire.
quently the point is not such; and
then he gives you his opinion
from some article he has chanced
to read in any paper. This shows
the Importance of having Catholic
periodicals in the family, to which
the young people may have access,

allegation. 1t shows, however,
that the old spirit is still alive,
and it matters little whether it be
famed into fame by Ulster or
Westminster: it quickly springs
into new life. Perhaps the move
ment of disintegration now going
on so rapidly in the Church of
England, movement which is
drawing the brightest lights into
the fold Of Catholicity, will in
time awaken the old Catholic
spirit that made England at one
time one Of the choicest spots in
the garden Of the Church.

Twenty-Five Flu Cases Tuesday and
Fifteen More Today

Fifteen cases of influenza reported
this morning at the office of the pub
lie health department and twenty-five
on Tuesday give riseSto the consider
alton that there may be a third epi-
demic of influenza brewing in the city.
According to the health authorities,

doing all they can to avoid contract
ing the disease.
Eight releases were also reported
this morning. The reports carry the
day up to 2:30 O'clock
Most of the cases reported Tues
day were on the West side. Six cases
were reported from one family in
North Topeka. According to DIR. II.

becoming lax in obeying the quaran-
tine regulations, both as to permitting
visitors to enter their homes and as
to making little forbidden pilgrimages

this sort of thing which might be en-
forced should definite cases be brought
to light of wilful violation of the ordi-
nances. say the authorities.

Dr. Benjamin Drummer of Wamego.
who won undying fame by being the
only member of the state senate OF

bone dry law but who fell on the water
wagon and voted for ratification of the
national prohibition amendment last
week. has put bill in the senate hop
per that may cause considerable stir
in Pottawatomie county before the
session is over. Doctor Brunner's bill
provides for holding the district court
twice a year in WameSo instead of in
Westmoreland, the county seat.
1t is claimed by those who want the
bill that since Westmoreland has be-
come an inland town following the
junking of the famous Kansas, South
ern & Gulf railroad it is impossible
for a large number of the residents of
the county to get to the county seat
during the winter months. Therefore,
it is proposed that only the Septem-

court be held at Westmoreland and
that the April and December terms be
held at Wamego.

Charges Wife With Improper Conduct
With Sergeant Meyers.

The hope entertained by city Off

Mrs. Shearer and two other women
had been called into the office of
Hugh Fisher, county attorney. a few

Shearer filed a petition in the office
of the district court asking, divorce
from his wife He charges that she
abandoned him about a month ago
and that he is unable to learn her
wherea bouts. He also charges her
with having improper relations with
Sergt. Cecil Meyers, a soldier from
Camp Funston.
About month ago the King Broth
ers, humane agents. began investiga
tons in connections with rumors to
the effect that Mrs. Shearer was neg
lecting her baby. One revelation
ultimately Mrs. Shearer, Christine
Faidley, her 15-year-old sister. and
Eula Earl were called into the office
of the county attorney to make affi
davits. They all confessed that they
had been having improper relations
with soldiers at various hotels in To-
peka and Sergeant Meyers was charged
with a sta tutory offense against the
Faidley girl, who was under age. His
prosecution was left to the army au-
thorities.
Shearer came to the city Jail to see
his wife and agreed to take her back
if she would conduct herself properly
and take care of their home and baby.
The apparent outcome of the case is
Shearer's petition for divorce. They
were married October 2, 1916. Mrs.
Shearer is said 10 be only 20 years old.

ALL BOW TO MY LORD TIGER
Natives Of the East Most Willingly
Accord Him Roya! Rank-ls
Sacred From Attack.

Of all the animals deified in the East
none is regarded with more awe than
my lord tiger. Especially throughout
Siam and IndO- China, the tiger is king.
Shrines are built and sacrifices made
to him. he is as sacred from the at
tack of the natives as is the white ele-
plant Of Siam.
If there are fewer tigers in this part
of the East today, it is due largely to
the efforts of western SpOrtSmen who
occasionally can persuade, bride, or
threaten a few natives to aid them in
q hunt. Any such lack of respect on
the part of the natives is, however
looked upon frOwningly by their neigh
bOrs who seem to fear that the tiger
will forget the exact individual who
attacked him and remember only the
community.
Native reverence goes so far as to
allow a tiger to prOwl undisturDed
about a village night after night, at
lacking and sometimes killing those
so unfortunate as to cross his path. In
the day the sacred beast retires to his
mountain domain, where he stays en-
tirely hidden until nightfall
1t is obvious that the royal tiger
rules entirely by fear. Awe-inspiring
he is himself, and his supremacy is
helped along by the attitude of the
natives. To the tiger are attributed
all manner of supernatural powers 1t
is held that he always knows and
tracks down those who offend him; he
can even turn himself into human
being, the better to seek out his ene-
mics.
