DOUBLE KILLING
AT BEARWALL0W
Sam Hill and Constable VIM. Lear
Both Die As Result Of Shoot
ing ARRAY Sunday.

Two men are dead as result of
a shooting affray in the Bearwal-
low section of Madison county
Sunday. The dead men are Sam
Hill, a well known farmer of that
community and Constable VIM.
Lear. The former was instantly
killed by bullets from the officers s
revolver, while Mr.. Lear died at
the Robinson Hospital, Berea,
from the effects of two bullets in
his bowels, fired by Hill.
According to the best informa-
ton obtainable, and until the cor
oner's inquest or other investiga-
ton is had, Hill met a young man
named Lunsford, who resided
near him and told him that his
(Lunsford's) hogs were in Hills
corn and that he would kill him il
they were not gotten out in five
minutes. The Lunsford boy i
said to have started to get his
hogs out when the constable came
up and told him to wait a minute,
1t is alleged that Hill irnmedi-
atey opened fire with a pistol on
the constable and the latter pulled
his gun and fired in return. One
report that reached town was that
Lear fired first at Hill. Both men
fell, mortally wounded, Hill ex-
|piring almost instantly. Lear
had two bullets in his groin and
he was taken to the hospital at
Berea and every effort made to
save his life, but without success.
Both the dead men are said to
have been men of families and
we'll known in that section IF the
county.
In view of the fact that both
,of the principals to the tragedy
are dead, there is said to be little
that officials can do, except to
perhaps hold a court of inquiry to
determine the exact facts in the
case, when Lunsford can tell what
the knows of the killings and
causes leading up thereto.

Washington, July II - The
Senate debate on the peace treaty

newed today with a'sharp contro-
versy between Senator'S Williams

charged the republicans had sub

insisted that Japan is given prac-

The common-sense citizen in read
ing that article does not see in it the
many snares and mares nests and
evil demons which have possessed and
infamed the lurid imaginations of
some orators, who have attempted to
describe 1t as veritable Pandora's

prophets Of disaster with the unalter-

existed as a part Of international law
in the early summer of 1914 and had
been recognized as an obligation upon
the part of those nations which were
afterwards engaged in the war with
Germany, as they now propose to re-
cognize and enforce 1t, then that war
would never have occurred and its un-
told and incalculable sacrifices would
never have had to be made Instead
of article 10 being an invitation to

become the greatest insurance we can

.CARROLl,S FRIENDS
BECOME ACTIVE
Cromwelps Straw Vote From 81
Counties Indicates Jurist
Ahead of Gov. Black.

uuSC JOllll ~. SdlIOi1 10 liiC ICd-
ture of the last two weeks before
the state primary on August End.
Several Carroll meetings have
been held in Madison, which has
all along been conceded to be
Black stronghold. A Carroll
organization has been effected
here, however, under the leader
ship of Messrs. Green Clay, John
holland, and J. J. Greenleaf, and
claims are being made that the
Judge is going to get a surprising
vote in this county. So far, the
Black sentiment here is entirely
spontaneous and unorganized.
Many of his friends are saying
that unless something is done in
the way of organization that
Judge Carroll is going to make a
lot better showing in Madison
than was thought probable a few
weeks ago. I
Friends of Judge Carroll are do
ing some strong advertising for
him in today's Daily Register and
they say they intend that the vot-
ers shall have arguments in favor
of Judge Carroll's nomination
clearly presented to them by the
time primary day rolls around.
Continuation of Tom Crom-
wells straw vote in Sundays En-
quirer has put a lot of enthusiasm
into the local Carroll adherents.
While the returns from over the
state are not complete, Cromwell
says that the vote from 81 coun-
ties indicates that Carroll will
win. He says:
The 81 counties from which es-
Inmates have been received give
lead of 6,775 to Judge Carroll over
Gov. James D. Black, and the vote
accorded to P. J. Noel, of Har-
rodsburg, is so minor that he
scarcely can be considered to be
factor in the race.
The 33 counties not reported
|are Ballard and Hickman, First
congressional district; Hancock,
Hopkins, Mclean and Webster,
Second; Allen, Logan and Warren
Third; Hardin, Hart, and Ohio,
Fourth; Campbell and Kenton,
Sixth; Lee, Seventh; Casey, Mer-
Ger, Jessamine, and Spencer,
Eighth; Bath, Breathitt, Greenup,
Montgomery, Nicholas, Rowan
and Wolfe, Ninth; Floyd, Jackson
Martin and Owsley, Tenth, and
Clay, Monroe and Rockcastle,
Eleventh.
The estimators say there will
be cast in Louisville and Jefferson
county, otherwise the Fifth con-
|gressional district, approximately
$4,000 votes, and that Carroll will
receive 5000 more than Black.
In the II counties reported
from the First district, Carroll is
accorded plurality of 1850, and
in the four reported counties of
the Second district, a plurality of
1,500 is seen for Carroll. The
seven reported counties of the
Third district give Black plural
ity of 875. The ten counties heard
from in the Fourth district accord
Carroll $50 more than Black.
The Six counties in the Sixth
district showing estimates give
plurality of 1900 to Carroll, while
the II counties reported in the
Seventh district accord the Chief
Justice 5,400 more than the Gov
ernor.
Black has pluralities in the re-
naming four districts. The
Eighth, seven counties in, accord
2,275 to him; the Ninth, eleven
counties reported, 1850; the
Tenth, six counties reported, e.
100; and the Eleventh, IL counties
reported, 2,825.

PUPS AND THEIR RIVALS.

Last week a Chicago minister
aroused a perfect storm Of pro-
testation and, incidentally, gained
for himself a national notoriety
for the moment. This well mean
ing pastor simply stated what
every man and woman knows,
only he gave the truth a rather
startling form of presentation.
Among other things he said:
'The Protestant Church is fol
lowing the pocketbook and failing
in the large cities. The Catholic
Church is following the cradle. y
That was badAenough. But he
added:
Il bet dollars to doughnuts that
among the so-called high brows,
you will find more pups than
babies.' Then the storm broke.
The different cities at once set to
work to schedule babies and pups
along their more noted thorough
fares. st. Paul complacently de
clared that poodles were a long
second in such statistical compari-
son, and we uttered an exclama-
ton Of gratitude for the superior
wisdom and morality of our. de-
voted fellow citizens. At least in
our fair city the cradle is far
greater than the kennel-and
much more popular.

FATHER NERI DEAD
PIONEER JESUIT OF CALIFORNIA
WAS DISTINGUISHED IN MANY
WAYS.

The Rev. Joseph Maria Neri, S. j.,
the first Jesuit priest ordained in Cal
ifornia and the last of the mission
aries with whom he went to that state
nearly sixty years ago, died at the
University of Santa Clara on Novem-
Der II.
The widely known priest succumbed
following a stroke of paralysis suf-
fered the previous Thursday.
Father Neri had been blind for six
teen years. He memorized thirty two
Masses after losing his sight and daily
was also known for having installed
the first electric lights seen upon the
streets of San Francisco. The lights
were placed in front of St. Ignatius'
College, where Father Neri served as
an instructor for many years.
Among the Catholic clergy on the
Pacific coast Father Neri was a dis
tinctive figure. He was born in No
vara, Italy, January 16, 1886, of no
BILE family. In 1858 he came to the
United States, and two years later
Joined the Jesuit missionary band en-
route to, California. He was ordained
at old ST. Mary's Church and said
Christmas Mass three days later, De
cember 25, 1861, at st. Ignatius
Church with Frank T. Sullivan anC
Judge Jeremiah Sullivan acting as
acolytes.

FATHER CAbANtL
CHAPLAIN TELLS OF FRENCH
y GRATITUDE - COUNTRY WILL
NEVER FORGET DEBT TO AMER
ICA, SAYS WAR HERO.

Americas soul is the soul of
in a moment when the blood of the
one mingled freely with the blood of
the other to sanctify forever the
fields of France" So declared Canon
Cabanel, "the Blue Devils chaplain"
and chaplain general of the Sixty
sixth division of the Seventh army of
France, to an audience of more than
200 at the University Club last Sat
urday afternoon.
France never can forget her great
debt of gratitude to America he de-
clared, land France never will for
get. In our darkest moment when all
seemed lost, you came to us, and to-
gether we won our victory he said
Father Cabanel related some of his
experiences during his four years of
service with the Blue Devils. "They
call me the Blue Devils chaplain, and
to me it is the title 1 always shall
prize"
The speaker was firm in his belief
that the world generally does not
realize the terrific slaughter of the
early days of the war. MY division
was wiped out twentyseVen times,
and twenty-seven times it was re-
cruited to face the enemy in battle.
Often l have stood with my boys, and
while we were talking a shell would
snuff out the life of my companion in
conversation, and when l recall these
incidents | wonder that | am here"
For three months Father Cabanel
was bereft of sight and hearing, due
to gas poisoning.
Frances war mortality is in excess
of 100000 men, according to Father
Cabanel more than 100000 men
have died from their wounds since the
armistice, and that means that as
many children have been orphaned.
You Americans have adopted these or
phaned children of France, and in
adopting them, you have adopted
France. Much has been done by
America for France, and much re-
mains to be done. We look to you for
assistance, and | thank God, we do
not look in Vain," he declared

Looking at the question from
a broader standpoint, however,
the conviction is clear that the
damnable vices so often con-
demned by every moral and sane
force are growing in this country
to an alarming extent. The for
eign elements among us, as a rule,
preserve the old fashioned idea
that a large family is an honor:
the native elements, on the other
hand, often consider children
more or less Of detriment to
ones social advancement, God
save the mark! History shows
what such a system produces. 1t
is merely a question Of mathe-
MATES and time. All nations look
alike to Nature: she will have her
way in spite Of color, creed or
social positions. The old New
England stock, once the boast of
American citizenship, now is not
able chiefly on account of it's
growing scarcity. The early
Irish, English, French, German
and Dutch families were proud of
their numerous progeny, and we'll
they might be. But their des-
pendants have aimed at quality'
in the race, and the result is that
numbers have been reduced to a
minimum, while the Italians, Poles
and Slavic races have given gen
erously to the dwindling popula-
ton throughout the East.
Pups may be the rage along the
avenues: in the centers Of human
interest babies are the prizes, and
pups are given their proper social
rating-in the back yards and
alleys where they belong.

THE BOY SCOUTS.

1t may seem superfuous to add
anything to the splendid letter of
the Most Reverend Archbishop on
the Boy Scout movement. AT the
same time, the matter is of such
Importance that an emphasis may
be permitted in recommending
this great work to those who are
most interested.
The problem Of what to do with
the growing boy is equalled only
by the question of what to do to
help and safeguard the growing
girl. Youth is irresponsible to a
degree: wisdom and experience
have not yet been vouchsafed the
adolescent mind, and it must needs
be that the fruit garnered by older
minds be furnished to immature
youth until the youthful harvest
is ripe.
The Boy Scout movement is too
well known to need explanation.
Our people for various good rea-
sons have remained aloof gener-
ally during the past. The recently
formed Council of Bishops has al
ready shown it's force and vast
usefulness in directing the efforts
of Catholics along social and other
lines. In the matter of the Boy
Scouts the Council takes the stand
that the time is propitious for our
Catholic parishes to take up the
matter and CLEAN both for them
selves and for their boys the I'M
doubted advantages accruing
from this excellent system Of
training boys.
The chief objection to the Amer
lean boy, according to foreigners,
is his irresponsible and care-free
nature. The Scout system grasps
this very characteristic, turns it
into safe channels and then sends
it on its course purified, strength
ened and directed towards a fixed
and definite goal-a goal that
proves an object Of manly ambi-
ton on the part of the boy.
It is to be hoped that every par
ish will soon be equipped with one
or more troops Of these Scouts,
such as are found in the Pro-Ca-
thedral and other parishes at pres
ent. Under Catholic auspices
these units may we'll be made the
center of those activities which
are sometimes aimed at by sodali-
ties for boys, but which seldom
are attained by such sodalities.

HIERARCHY THANKS Pope
BAVARIAN BISHOPS ISSUE PAS
TORAL EXPRESSING GRATl-
tube FOR GOOD WILL OF HOLY
FATHER.

The Bavarian Hierarchy has is
sued pastoral letter in which the
Bishops express their gratitude to the
Pope for his good will towards their
country and their deep regret for the
insults to which the Nuncio at Munich
was subjected by the revolutionaries.
The Bishops draw particular atten-
ton to the treatment which has been
accorded to the clergy since the revO-
ton, which is due to Communistic
and Bolshevist sections. Parties of
armed men forced their way into the
episcopal residences and into the
houses of the clergy, intimidating and
threatening the Bishops and clergy
with imprisonment. Persistent at
tempts have been made to seize
church property, and many valuable
objects have been taken from the
churches.
The Bishops are particularly anX'
ious about the school question. A
spirited attempt has been made, and
is still made, to drive religion from
the schools entirely. A movement is
on foot to deprive Catholic parents OF
the right of having their children
taught religion in schools, and, in ad
dition, underhand measures are being
brought forward to abolish or to Sc.
cularize the Catholic private schools
The Bishops have offered dignified
yet strong protest against this attempt
on the part of the state to invade the
most sacred rights of citizens.

THE IMMACULATE MOTHER.

Years ago this great country
was dedicated to the honor and
placed under the protection of
Mary Immaculate. That means
that she was called upon to extend
her protecting hand over the des-
TIMES Of our people, while they
would endeavor to render to her
the homage Of filial devotion.
Mary the Mother of God is hon
ored today in thousand ways by
our Catholic people. Shrines,
sodalities, societies, churches,
schools and other institutions have
been in an especial manner de-
voted to the exaltation Of her
august name. All unite in calling
blessed her whom the angel sa-
luted full Of grace
At the same time, Mary expects
of her spiritual children a higher
type of loyalty than even the dedi-
cation of material homes and in
stitutions. She looks to the Chris
tan people of our country to en-
noble her name by initiating her
virtues. Her purity and her hui
mility attracted the gaze of the
Godhead, and won for her the dia-
dem Of virgin-motherhood.
These two virtues are lament
ably lacking among the members
Of the present generation. Pride
of form, feature, intellect, ances-
try, position and rank, seems to
infest large proportion Of those
who should be numbered among
the perfect imitators of the virgin
of Nazareth. The lust Of the eyes
and the lust Of the flesh also have
exacted their terrible toll from
the ranks Of the children Of God
Pride goeth before a fall, anC
want Of purity precedes humilia
ton. Mary Immaculate, her ex
ample and her gracious help anC
assistance, are the antidotes thai
will cure the scars left by pride
and impurity.
