$3,5O0,0OO of Furs
Sold In One Day at
St. Louis Auction

Sales estimated at $4,000, 900 were
made on the floor of the Interna-
tional Fur exchange in st. Louis.
last week, and revised auditors
account of Mondays transactions
showed that the total for that day
reached $5,oSS,173, in place of the
S4,175,0Oo previously given out.
AS contrast and in order to show
the tremendous demand for furs
that exists at the present sale, the
figures of former sales that were
published show that in January.
1918, the sales amounted approx
mately to 100000 for the entire
auction, $1O,000,00O was received in
the April sales and s15,OOe,O0O in
October.
1t was also announced that, al
though prices obtained here are con-
sidered extraordinary, the prices be-
ing obtained in London are follow
ing closely, due to the present scare
tty Of skins throughout the world.
AS previously announced, more than
SO per cent Of the available fur sup
ply n the world is on sale in St.
Louis.
Marten pelts were put on the mar
ket yesterday and were in great de-
mand at from $40 to $500 each, with
record established in the sale of
one skin which brought $3.50. 1t was
said to be one of the finest ever
taken. The lot Of 1000 skins was
disposed of. The next lot was 400
stone marten pelts and these brought
from $40 to $40 each. A lot of 400
Baum marten skins was sold at from
$40 to $50 each, and 215, 900 marmots
brought from 81 to IS each.
Mink skins, however, seemed the
favorites in the days sales. Good
skins averaged from $40 to $40 for
choice. Low grades sold at from
$3.50 to SIS. One lot reported to be
the finest collection ever sold at
auction, reached the total Of $75 per
skin. The total sales of mink reach
ed 10000 skins.
One st. Louis retail dealer report
ed that he has sold mink wrap for
$4,000 and expressed regret that he
had not postponed his retail sales of
mink garments until after the values
had been established by the present
sale. Extra large Alaskan and north
western mink were wanted as neck
pieces for spring and summer wear,
but the bulk of the sale is Of skins
for fine coats and garments.
The sale Of the marten skin for
$3.50 aroused great interest. This
skin was classed by itself on account
of its magnificent quality and was
known as Lot $780," 1t was bought
by H. Berger, of New York.

BRAZIL AND. FASHIONS
NATIONWIDE CAMPAIGN TO BE
WAGED AGAINST PRESENT I'M
MODEST FEMININE ATTIRE.

A campaign against prevailing modes
in feminine attire, not only in Rio de
Janeiro, but also in other large cities
of Brazil, has been inaugurated by the
Catholic clergy. t5.5
One Bishop recently advised the
priests of his Diocese to deny Com
munion to those who presented them
selves unsuitably attired, while an
Archbishop has made the immodest
fashions the subject of pastoral let
ter. Leaflets attacking the present
fashions were distributed recently out
side the cathedral in Rio de Janeiro
Mgr. Maxim iano Leite, the Vicar
General, in an interview stated that
the clergy had decided to wage a
campaign from the pulpit against the
prevailing costumes, and he hoped for
the cooperation of the press. He de-
clared that present-day feminine gar
ments were profoundly dangerous to
morals The heat of the climate, he
said, was made the preteX for lament
able excuses. Ea=

THE GOOD SHEPHERD.

From time to time the bikes
which hold back the torrents of
filth are let down and the coun-
try, or certain sections of it, is
given a view of iniquity, bigotry
and vileness at close range. The
average American hates and abb
hors the noxious odors that pro-
,ceed from such journalistic gut
ters. Still, among men here and
there are found a few specimens
that compare with certain types
in the animal world; they revel
in filth and noxious odors.
Some years ago the House Of
the Good Shepherd in this city
was the center of attack from the
forces of bigotry. A young girl,
hayward and wilful and yearning
for the bright lights, ran away
from the home. She was picked
up by certain parties, and on this
little incident was built a thrill
ing tale of slavery, torture and
suffering. The result was that the
noblehearted Sisters Of the Good
Shepherd became the target in a
lawsuit which rocked the com
munity. Needless to say the
whole story was proven to be a
fabrication, and the Sisters were
triumDhantly indicated.
This unfortunate girl quickly
realized that she had lost a good
home. Her new found friends
melted away, and in spite of the
expense, trouble and unwelcome
notoriety suffered by the good
Nuns, they received this hayward
child back into their home with
open arms. That is the type of
charity that characteriZes every
House Of the Good Shepherd.
A word to the wise is sufficient

LEAGUE OF WOMEN
TO HAVE HEADQUARTERS IN
WASHINGTON TWILL AIM AT
SHIP.

A great nOnpartisan organization OF
women - with the ballot as their
Weapons preparing to open head
quarters in Washington with the
avowed purpose of using it's influence
to obtain legislation from Congress de-
sired by the women of this country.
This is the National League of Women
Voters, which was recently organized
in Chicago.
In a large measure the woman's or
ganization will be on par with the
American Federation of Labor; it will
be nonpartisan; it stands for legisla-
ton primarily in the interests of the
women and children, and it plans to
enter political campaigns in the future,
as it has in the past, to defeat candi-
dates who do not measure to the
ideas of the women.
In each State there will be a State
organization, State League of Women
Voters, and these State organizations
are expected to carry out State pro.
grams in harmony with that of the
national league. This program, as
stated in the constitution of the ma
tional organization, is 'tto educate for
citizenship and support improved
legislation"

A VALUABLE SCOOP
CORRESPONDENT IN HI AVE
WRITES FOR ENGLISH NEWS
PAPER!

Father King in London, Father Ber-
nard Vaughan in the North, and sew
eral other priests have been warning
the English Catholic public against the
growing cult of spiritism, which is fill
ing the lunatic asylums and adding to
the ever increasing list of criminals.
The Archbishop of Liverpool, who
presided at Father Vaughan's lecture,
said that planchette had been the
cause of a great deal of moral and
spiritual deterioration in the country.
Father Vaughan pointed out the man.
ner in which the s6-called spirits con-
tradicted each other, and the essen
tial fact that they never had anything
of real interest or originality to COM
municate about the world, from which
they were supposed to come.
This craze has gone so far that one
newspaper actually advertises it's spe-
cial correspondent in Heaven, an
Anglican clergyman, who processes to
tell his readers all about the condi-
lions above from psychic information.

TO UNITE PARTIES

FOR DEFENSE Is PLANNED
IN HUNGARY.

81 A movement is On foot to promote
a political amalgamatiOn between the
Protestants and Catholics in Hungary,
to unite the Christian Party in their
struggle against the Social Democrats
and Liberals. Whether the union will
ultimately come about, or how long it
will last, it is impossible to say. The
initiative seems to have been taken by
Professionals, who are anxious to see
some change in the laws enacted in

to evangelize the people by the Protes.
tant Church.
1t is not the intention Of the Hun
garian Catholics, who in times past
have suffered sacrifices to safeguard
their religious liberties, to be drawn
into a movement which has in the
background any scheme for the
spoliation of the Church, and until the
matter has been Strengthened out the
amalgamation will not go very far for
ward.
