Converts and Priests OBJ
jects Of Outrages
O'CALLAGHAN SPOKE
BEFORE COMMITTEE

to Burn Cork Were Made
Before Big Fire

Washington, d. c., Jan l4--Cath-
olic churches, converts, parochial
schools and priests themselves are OBJ
jects of constant outrages by British
crown forces in Ireland, Donal 0Cal-
laghan, lord mayor of Cork, declared
to day in continuing his statement be-
fore the commission of the committee
of one hundred investigating condi.
tions in Ireland,
Father Griffin of Galway, he de-
clared, had been killed undoubtedly
because he was known TO have re-
ceiyed an invitation from the Ameri-
can commission investigating Irish
conditions to come here to give testi-
mony."
Father MacSwiney of Cork, he said,
was taken from a tram car on Dec. is
and ordered to write ITO hell with the
pope" Refusing, the lord mayor add.
ed, the priest was practically stripped
of bis clothing and then bsaten.
The lord mayor said there was con
stant mistreatment of women despite
the Ssual belief they were "immune
from indignities committed by British
forces" He gave names and dates of
some dozen alleged instances of the
killings of women, and also told of
women being driven from their homes
in night clothing without shoes. In
one case. he said, woman was hid
kneelng in ditch Of sater in an
effort to extricate information from
her.
Previous to the big fire in Cork. nu-
merous efforts were made to burn the
city hall and other buildings, the lord
mayor said. especially those thought
to have been used by Sim Fein clubs
Warnings worded very much like the
notices sent by the Germans preceding
The destruction of Louvain, he said,
were received by citizens before the
Durnings Copies of the notices pre-
,ented to the commission read:
ut is extremely dangerous to be
living on your premises at present.

HoULToN, ME-, DOCTOR DEFIANT,

Over One Mile Out.

Houbon, Ne, Jan. l4.-The doctors
of Houlton have entered into an agree,
ment mot 10 engage to attend any con-
fnement cases in the county tower one
mile out from Jan. |. 1921. to May !,
1921" The doctors give as reason
for this agreement that there is a
scarcity of doctors and nurses, that
travelling over the rural roads is slow
and difficult. For this reason, they
say, maternity cases can best be cared
for at each of the Houlton hospitals
There has been a storm Of protest
against this agreement but the doctors
say that they cannot spend many hours
travelling into the rural districts to the
neglect OF their Houlton patients

CONG. GREENE DECRIED
OVER-CENTRALIZATION
Declared That Efforts at Washington
for Nine Years Have Been to
Draw Power from the
States.

Outside of committee meetings, the
only business done by the Legislature
yesterday was to assemble in joint as
sembly and listen to an address by
Honorable Frank L. Greene, congress
man of the first district.
Senator Carpenter of Franklin coun-
ty and Messrs. Wood of st. Johnsbury
and Hunter Of Proctor escorted Con.
gresham Greene into Representatives
hall, where he spoke for 80 minutes
mostly on the dangers of centralizing
too much power in the government at
Washington.
1T seems good" said the speaker,
ito get back to Vermont and sniff the
air of free, state government, after nine
years in Washington, where every eff
fort is being made to draw away from
the states all their inherent power and
centraiize it in Washington.
when we begin to give up that
right and power to govern ourselves in
our own way to spend the money we
have raised ourselves as we see fit We
are ON the high road to ruin tapplause)
The next thing will be a centralized
autocracy with all sorts of Christmas
tree legislation TO keep the people
quiet. Even now the federal govern
ment is portioning out to us portions
OF this money, which they took from
us in the first place in taxes applause
and now they say we can spend it, not
as we like, but as some one in Wash
ington directs.
Little by little we lose the power
TO do what we like with our own money
and from that anthill in Washington
comes presently some man who calls
for your books and your papers and your
certificate and when you ask
him what his business is, he shows you
a badge and says he an inspector for
something or other from Washington.
Il am not opposed to strong govern
ment in Washington believe in it,
but / also believe that the time has
come to hold fast that which is good
1pr. own government and give away
10 more power. My desk may be in
but my heart is here with
you" Long and sustained applause.

New York, Jan l4.-Public build
ings, churches, public utility plants

to-day by order of the police as a pre-
cautionary measure against radica
demonstrations.
Police officials were extremely reti.
cent concerning the order given verbal.
~ last night to the entire force, but
they intimated it was prompted by
federal authority
Supporting the belief that the order
was the result of federal stimulus was
the fact that William J. Flynn, chief
of the bureau of investigation of the
department of justice, made the rounds
last night giving instructions to the
police and detectives stationed at va
rious posts. Hes out on duty with
his men" was the gist of the sole com
ment of subordinates in his office.
Plain clothes detectives and uniformed
patrolmen, working in relays, were on
sentinel duty all night
Special attention was given to pro-
tection of the homes of John d. Rookie
feller, J. p. Morgan, Charles NJ.

Mayor John f. Hylan and other citi-
zens along Fifth avenue and in other
fashionable residential districts.

Art, city hall, the federal building, all

GOOD PREVENTIVE OF VERMIN
All Small Enclosures should BE
Cleaned and Oisinfected Before
Being Used.

Except in accidental cases. hog lice
are found only on hogs. and they do
not voluntarily leave their natural
host, says the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. When sepa-
rated from the animal they live only
two or three days. The lice pass
readily froc1 one hog to another when
the animals come in close contact.
Practically all cases of infestatiOn
occur from contact with lousy ami
mails and not from infected premises.
Under reasonably good sanitary con-
ditions pens, corrals and premises
which have contained lousy hogs are
not source OF danger to hogs free
from lice.
AS precautionary measure. how
ever, and because it is good sanitary
practice, all small Enclosures which
have contained lousy hogs should be
cleaned and disinfected before being
used for a new lot Of hogs. The litter
and manure should be removed and
the floors cleaned after which the
woodwork and floors should be sprayed
with good disinfectant. The coal
tar-creosote dips, diluted in accordance
with Instructions On the container. are
suitable for this purpose.

Next separate the IL wires into two

strands with the one of the basket
(making four), are clamped with the
short ends of the big wires, throwing
the two strands in braided fashion
to cover each wire. Thus is heavy
coil formed at the top Of the basket.
The handle wires are carefully
wrapped with paper, then caught with
spool wire (all wrapped in paper) be-
ginning at each side of basket at the
base. Shellac the basket with one or
more coats.
The dolls can be dressed for pin
cushions or electric bulb shades. No

A bit Of lace is wondrous thing.
Within It's patterned meshes OF
immaculate daintiness. is indelibly
stamped the message Of feminine
charm. Fine lace and rare en-
broideries proclaim the presence OF
the gentlewoman.
There is no dress or suit SO plain or

hour rush to add the touch that

for we all realize that exquisite neck
wear will ever be recognized as the

Even sweaters have succumbed to
the lure. That is. young girls are
