TEN-FooT ALLIGATOR.
Killed at Orange, Texas. After Being a
Pest to Cattle Raisers.

| An alligator that measured ten feet
four inches, furnished the river front
attractions in Orange recently The
gator was killed opposite the Weaver
4 Son shipyard, where he fought
against odds for thirty minutes with
r. Goodman and Roy Belair. The men
use da forty five calibre revolver until
they were near enough to the saurian
to strike him with an axe which
severed his backbone and rendered
him powerless to fight.
A shotgun fired at close range had
but little OF no effect on the alligator,
The boiler-like hide would turn the
buckshot al though they were mustard
seed.
The misfortune of being one-eyed
contributed to the end of the big gator
that had terroriged the hogs, cattle,
sheep and goats on either side Of the
Sabine river for years. Many times
these river men took advantage OF the
semi blindness of the marsh king and
administered some kind of a blow until
he was finally conquered although he
made good use Of every opportunity to
administer a brOadside at the skiff in
which the men rode as they carried on
the thirty minutes warfare
Stoekmen on both sides of the river
said that this powerful animal had
made numerous raids on the young
calves. pics. sheep and goats. They de.
.elafed that the killing Of the monster
alligator would be worth thousands Of
dollars TO them.-San Antonio Ex-

FAMOUS JESUIT
PRIEST DEAD
Father Bernard Vaughan
Who Denounced Germany
During War
DECLARED GERMANS
DIDN'T PLAY GAME
Fir. Vaughan Was Outspok-
en- in Denouncing
Other Acts

London, Oct. 81 fBy the Associated
Press). Father Bernard Vaughan, one
| Of the most prominent Jesuit priests
| in the world and brother of the late
Cardinal Vaughan, died here to-day.
Several years ago he toured through
the United States and parts Of Cana
da and later lectured in Japan, where
he addressed the House of Peers.
Father Vaughan became i'll two or
three months ago at Sheffield, but re-
covered sufficiently to be removed to
| the Jesuit college at Putney. There
he was able to get about in rolling
chair.
The famous priest was bedriddcn
only three days before the end. His
brothers in the Society of Jesus were
about his bedside when he died peace
fully at o'clock this morning.
Father Vaughan first came into
prominence in the latter part of the
10th century by taking conspicuous
part in the civic as well as religious
life of Manchester. In 1901 he went
to London, and became an active work
er among the poor at Westminster and
in the east end slums.
While in New York in 1912 he gave
series of sermons against socialism.
In the war his feryid utterances
brought down upon him the attacks
of his brother Jesuits in Germany. 1t
was his contention that the Germans
"did not play the game" in fighting
the World war.
On the first anniversary Of Ameri-
cas- entry into the conflict this mes
sage by Father Vaughan was flung
across the sea:
Eve congratulate with all our
hearts the champions of the rights Of
mankind the American people"
Mormonism shared with socialism
the fire of Father Vanghan's denounc-
ing oratory. AT times he would warn
England OF her decreasing birth rate
and caution against race suicide.
Three years ago he assailed the fash
ions then prevailing in women's
gowns. When the Irish hunger strik-
ers came into prominence he contended
that. they were deliberately commit
ting suicide.
