Pittsburgh was puzzled to- day by ar,
unsigned full page advertisement in

in all the newspapers urging the stfik-

the greater part Of the advertisements
was given over to quotations from

that the American Federation of Labor

a deaf ear to the request of lis own
superior officer and appointed pro
fessed syndicalist. William z. Foster,
to organize the steel workers in the
great Pittsburgh district"
The letter concludes. after asking
why Foster Is not arrested, and assert
ing that his teachings are worse than
those Of Berkman, Goldman or any OF
the Russian Reds:
AS for the men Of the Holy Cross
have every confidence in their intel
hgence and good Judgment and have
no fear that they will be inflamed by
the sophistrics Of the radicals. but as
matter OF precautlon have given
warning that if any should follow the
leadership of Foster IT would be
equivalent to Endorsing his doctrines,
and should regard them as apostates
from the Catholic faith, traitors to
their country and enemies to au-
thority.'

CHICKEN FANClERS
CAN DISCUSS THIS

The following dispatch from Mad
fson, Wis, can be discussed by local
chicken fanciers:
Prof. ]. G. Halpin of the poultry
department OF the University of
Wisconsin has spent several days at
La Crosse, Wis, as a guest of Gus
taVe Rhodes, owner OF the hen. Bid
dy, which has puzzled poultry ex-
perts by her record of laying an av-
erage of twenty-three eggs a week
for the past two months.
Professor Halpin is convinced tina
except for her egg laying propen-
sity. Biddy is a normal hen in ev-
cry way. He has examined her
carefully and has observed her ac-
tons. One day he saw her lay nine
eggs in forty-fiYe minutes and tho
next day seven in half an hour.
Professor Halpin is arranging to
exhibit Biddy at county fairs this
fall and will ask for university
appropriation to purchase the hen
for $4,000. He declares that it would
be possible to cross breed poultry
30 that hens would ordinarily lay
two or three eggs a day, just as the
milk yield Of cows has been increas-
ID through regulated cross breeding.
