CanOniZatiOn
 Ceremony Held

Rome, May 13.-Solemn ceremony for the canonizat ation of Gabriel Pos senti and Marie Alaoaue was held in St. Peters today. Pope Benedict was carried in the chair of state to the cathedral, being surrounded by a gorgeous retinue of ecclesiastics, of ficials of the civil and military courts of the vatican. members of the sacred college, archbishops, bishops. Roman nobility and general officers of re- ligious orders. Swiss guards pre- ceded the procession as it went from the Vatican to the scene of the ceremonies.
 When the procession entered the cathedral the choir sang Ave Maria Stella.' The Bas;ilica was crowd- cd with guests. Throngs of French pilgrims greeted the pontiff with loud cheers, waving handkerchlefs and holding up religious objects for the apostolic blessing, which the pope benevolently imparted with his up raised hand.
 Later Pope Benedict celebrated mass, and then, with the same gor- geous procession, returned to his apartments in the Vatican. Cardinal O'Connell of Boston, Mass, was present for the first time as car dinal at ceremony for canonization. He received many greetings from his colleagues, who expressed satlstac- tion they had with them represen- tative from America.

BANDIT WHO ROBBED TRAIN OF $1O5,0OO
 SLAIN BY POLICE
Boy of 22 Holds Up. I. C. New Orleans Limited
 Limited

Chicago, May 14.-One of the most daring train robberies in recent years in the middle west ended this morning in the death of bandit who last night footed the Illinois Central, New Orleans limited, and the recovery of $105,000 in currency.
 One policeman, shot by the bandit, is dead and another is seriously wounded.
 The bandit was identified as Horace Walton fell with four bullets in his body after barricading himself in his apartment and fighting pitched battle with more than 100 police, in- cluding several picked rifle squads.
 Walton boarded the train at Gil man, few miles from Kankakee last night, taking seat in a Pullman At Decatur 9 mail pouch containing registered mail was taken o nthe train
 As the flyer pulled out of Kankakee Walton stepped into the mail car and announced that he was the postal inspector. He walked toward Elmer F. Harris, chief clerk, and his four assistants, then suddenly drew gun and commanded "hands up." The clerks obeyed Harris and three of the clerks were ordered to lie down on the floor and James E. Burke, the fourth clerk, was forced to bind their hands behind them. Walton then tied Burkes hands and set about leis- urely sorting of the mail pouches.
 Armed with the clerks key he pick ed out and rifled the bags which con tained shipments of money, remark ing that Fits easy when you have in side information" A travelng bag appropriated from one of the clerks furnished receptacle for the money. After filling the bag, Walton kept up running fire of banter with the clerks until the train reached Engle- wood station, in South Chicago, short ly before 1 9. m. There he opened the door and as the train gathered speed, leaped out.
 Fifteen minutets later Patrolman William A. Roberts and John Ken were aroused by the bag and Roberts stepped forward to question the man. Walton, with his revolver in his pock ct, fired through his coat and Roberts fell, shot in the head and side. Walton leaped into the areaway of an apartment building, while Ken dricks dropped behind Roberts body and opened fire After an exchange of shots the policeman dashed for ward and grappled with the man. Walton dropped the bag and fled: Po- lice rifle squads, summoned by neigh bors, located the man n an apartment house half block away. They sur rounded the building and for more than an hour poured hundreds of bull lets into Walton's apartment. He re- turned the fire steadily, using two guns, then suddenly stopped. Detec- tive Chief Mooney led dash on the room and found Walton on the floor, dead, with four bullets in his body.
 Patrolman Roberts died in hos pital Patrolman Thomas Sorriter al so was wounded, but not fatally. Walton had lived in the apartment where he was killed for several weeks, according to neighbors. The holdup apparently had been carefully plan- ned. A postal instructors badge, a mail pouch key and an Illinois Central time table, printed in pencil on card, were found on the body.

Plague of Beggars
 on the Decrease

London, May 1.-The plague of beggars" seems to be decreasing in Madrid now. one of the most rapidly developing cities in Europe. The only city in Spain with a fast rail way service in all directions, Mad rid apparently is acquiring control of the business of the whole country and money is being spent lavishly on improvements, writes the correspond- ent of the Daily Mail.
 Great avenues are being driven athwart the old narrow streets. The rapid growth of her population and widening of thoroughfares mean dis. placement of residential streets. New buildings being eretced are said to be among the finest strutures in Eu- rope.
 Middle class Madrid, the correspon- dent says, is moving to the outskirts and in the arid desert is arising , garden city.

Aviation Show Has
 Varied Features

Philadelphia, May 13.-One of the most comprehensive exhibits to be shown at the coming exhibition of aerial supplies and all types of flying machines at Atlantic City, N. J., by the Aero Club of America, from May 20 to May 30, is expected to be the display by the Board of Appraisal, Survey and sale from the Philadel- phia Navy yard.
 One feature of the exhibition will he the daily flights made by experienced aviators. The flights will be made in various types of machines that will be placed on sale by the navy depart ment.
 A center of attraction probably will be the Liberty motor, which will be set up in running order to demon strate it's efficiency and the horse- power that can be developed from a gallon of gasoline. It is intended to equip one of the F-5-L type of planes with complete radio apparatus so that during the flights spectators may communicate with the machine. The machine also will be equipped with complete ordnance equipment, in-

BETTER THAN CA[OMEL
Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets
 are a Harmless Substit,,ta

pr. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub- stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almo& instantaneous. These little olive colored tablets are the result of pr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calonel.
 The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calornel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums, So do strong liquids. It is best r1ot to take calonel. Let Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
 Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a dlsordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel ''loev" and heavy" They 'clear" clouded brain and 'rerk ID" the spirits. IOc and S5c. &

liquor and dispose of it, agents of the govern
ment said.
They have in their possession indisputable
evidence Prosecutions are sure to follow and
convictions in the federal courts are assured.
Therein lies the real worth of the investiga-
ton which the government has been conducting
for many weeks. If the country permits grad
ual breakdown of the law, chaos and disorder are
sure to follow. If violators arrested and con-
victed for their offenses, the public will know
that laws are enacted for the protection of the
community, and that the lawbreaker cannot es-
cape the consequences of his acts
The conviction of the men who have been
guilty of organizing the alleged ring and of
participating in its operations will be salutary
lesson for those who are inclined to believe that
law evasion is condoned. The vast majority of
the men and women Of this country and of this
community are law abiding, and believe that
men who violate the law-especially for profit to
themselves-should be made to pay the penalty
for their wickedness.
The community will gain immeasurably by
the removal of these men, who not only i'm
ported the liquor in vast quantities. but also at
tracted to the city men with criminal tendencies
The series of burgaries perpetrated here last
summer probably can be traced to whisky run
ners," who fertile field for burglarizinp
operations. The elimination of the bootlegger
and of the men who supplied him with liquor
may result in diminution of other crimes
The cleanup by the government will end the
illicit Importation and sale of liquor in this city.
The net has been drawn about the leaders. and
government officials say none of them and their
confederates will escape. Thus by one swoop will
the traffic and the ring" be smashed.
