The Church has nothing to do legal
ly with the marriages of persons be-
yond her pale, unless such persons
wish to form an alliance with Cath
olics; then they must conform to the
laws of the Church, for she has every
thing to say and do about the Sacra-
ment of marriage for her own chill
dren. If it is found that a previous
marriage is valid according to the
laws of God and the Church, then it
stands, and she cannot permit a sec
ond marriage until that one is dis
solved, not by divorce, but by death.
If it is found that that previous mar
riage is not valid, then she declares
there was no marriage, and the party
is free to marry. This process is fire.
quently followed even by the State
courts. when marriages are declared
null and void because of nC1-conform-
ity with certain civil laws. There are
many such invalid marriages, both
in Church and State Investigations.
Jews and Quakers.
1t is generally believed that only
the Catholic Church is opposed to
mixed marriage. The Jews and the
Quakers are very much more en-
phatically and much more successfully
opposed to them. The reasons are
perfectly plain to any one who thinks
on the matter. Marriage is the most
intimate relationship; religion goes
into the very fibers of life more deep
ly than anything else. Successfully
happy unions for life are difficult of
attainment at best, when all elements
unite to make them so. When re-
ligiOn, the most vital of all, is not in
the cementing bond, then it is almost
impossible If love and religion go
hand in hand then there is hope of
much happiness; where either is want
ing, then there is strife, misunder-
standings, cross-purposes, disappoint-
ment and failure.

Carey's second visit in ten days TO the

gangsters, was enough to mark the
Monk for sudden death, but, in addl-
ton, DR.. Carleton Simon, Deputy Com
missioner in charge OF the narcotic
squad, and Detective Barney Boylan
OF that service, have visited Eastman
within the month. The police would
not deny that they had secured infOr-
