MEXICAN POLITICS
SANER ELEMENTS NOMINATE
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

The announcement from Mexico
City, received through official chan
nels, that Alfredo Roblez Dominguez
has been nominated by the recently
organized Republican Party, intro
duces new speculative element in
the Mexican political situation. The
Republican Party, which is made up of
various scattered conservative groups,
gives promise of constituting in Mex
leo what the Catholic Center" is in
Germany. 1t represents the first ef-
fort of the Catholic element of the
population to formulate civic pro-
gram, and to counteract the political
activities of the radicals who focked
to Mexico during the war and still ex-
ercise pronounced influence.

FACTOR IN FIGHT ON
DIVORCE.

Catholic women of Italy proved i'm
pOrtant factors in the opposition to
the Marangoni divorce bill, which led
by the Italian Popular party has
forced the proponents of that measure
to admit the futility of attempting to
put it through the Chamber of Depu-
ties at the present sessions and has
caused the postponement of further
action until the fall sessions
The campaign waged by the League
Of Catholic Women was founded on
the principle of pitiless publicity for
the measure. Every town and hamlet
of the country was included in the
campaign. which was educational in
character and carried out by means Of
posters published broadcast.

THE CHURCH IN BOHEMIA

the establishment of a Czech National
Church, whose object was separation
from Rome. The movement would
have been serious enough had it been
confined entirely within ecclesiastical
limits. But when it became secretly
fOstered by the social Democrats, who
managed to place themselves secure
ly within the government, the move
ment assumed proportions that were
alarming for the Church. 1t was dur
ing these trOublOus times that DR..
Vance, with the permission Of Cardi-
nal Bourne, went to Prague and
placed himself at the disposal of Arch
bishop Kordac, who was then newly
appointed to fill the archdiocese va
Gated by Archbishop Won Huyn.
The troubles of the Church in this
Republic are far from ended. But the
air is cleared; the Bull Of EX-cOmmu-
nication issued by the Holy Office
showed exactly where the loyal Cath
oics and the schismatics stood, and
in that direction there is now no lOng-
er any uncertainty. But the social
Democrats are still strong, and the
Czech Catholic Popular Party, al
though it won a decisive victory in
the recent elections, has to bring all
its forces to bear on the anti-clerical
and spOliatOry measure which the So
cial Democrats. allied with the Radi-
calls, are trying to force on the cOun-
try, to the evident detriment of the
Church.
Suffering of Bohemian Priests.
In Bohemia the Church is suffering
a great deal from poverty. The patri-
nOny Of the Church has shrunk con-
siderably on account of the fall in eX-
change, and also by the cOnfscatiOn
Of much church property, which has
been handed over to the ex-communi-
Gated schismatics. So that the loyal
priests are suffering a great deal from
lack of food and clothing. Their an
nual stipend is now worth practically
nothing, and the prices of the necessi-
ties Of life have risen appallinglv.
For example, if needy priest desires
to provide himself with a new cassock
1t would be necessary for him to de-
vote every cent Of his stipend for two
years to get the price of a cassOck.
In the meantime he would have moth
ing whatever to live on So in order
to live-and his living is Of the scan
tiest-the unfortunate priest has to
wear rags. Such is the poverty of the
Czech Catholic clergy.

A MUSICIAN FOR THE MOVIES
ROME

Lingering long under the ravages
of consumption, Bob Austin, the
well known piano player at the Gem
Theatre finally passed away. The
soul that had been reflected upon the
great canvas of human experience
reached the termination of the reel,
and The End" the fate of all, was
flashed upon the screen!
For possibly thirteen years this
man played at the piano, interpreting
on his beloved instrument every con-
ceivable photo play. If the motion
picture is a fair reflector of the real,
then what vast information he must
have received from instructive film,
what dramas must have passed his
vision! And he, ever moving in the
spirit and atmosphere of the scenes
depicted, has contributed wonderfully
to the vividness of such with his in
terpretative music. Austin may not
have been a great artist but he GER
tainly was a hard worker. Ere the
theatre boasted Of a pipe riga he
used to delight the audience with the
ldIbSl OpuldI dlo at lhlCl Ndlos ~
the comedies he offered the lively
for the intense moments there was
the soft pitched note-for beautiful
scenes and the trysting hour there
was the tuneful and limpid ballad
when the plot led in caves and the
characters walked with stealth there
was the weird note-A murder scene
was sure to elicit the tragic tune of
Hearts and Flowers while the mar
riage ceremony being performed was
the inevitable signal for Mendels-
sohn's celebrated wedding march. >
SO this musician worked at his job
faithfully, pleasantly with grand en-
thusiasm. He gave what the world
calls service. To his employer he was
true, and, it is said, his employer was
true to him. In the nature of things
as we humans understand it, he is
here no more, but according to the
immortal plan he is somewhere, and
fancy fondly forms the idea OF a high
er MUSIC and nobler picture.

KNIFE-REVOLVER is no plaything,
but is the most fashionable and most
practicable thing. When it is put to-

inches long; the knife blades are made
of the best steel and the cover is nickel
plated. The bullets are hidden in the
knife, and also the blades. When you
need a knife you just open it and you
can use it-and in case of danger you
just pull the trigger and it gives .22-cali-
bre shots.
Most truly, this is a good invention.
These knives are sold any other places
