MARQUISE ABANDONS ROME

Mlts M. G. Caldwell That Once Created a Stir iu the Religious World at Home and Abroad. New York, Nov. 10.—Marquise des Monstiers Merinville, who was Mary Gwendolin Caldwell, and so devoted a Roman C&tbolie that slie gave $300,000 to found the Roman Catholic university at Washington, has caused to be published a statement that she has renounced the Roman Catholic church forever. In her statement she saysthat “since I have been living In Europe my eyes have been opened to what that churcli really is,” and that “At last my honest Protestant blood has asserted Itself.” She was a relative of the famous Breckinridge family of Kentucky, her father, an Englishman, who settled in this country, having married a Miss Breckinridge, a Kentucky belle. He left his daughter $2,000,000.

Be she Evylynn or Biddy, Cut tier out! She may be your ownest owney, Till ttie marriage paths gets stony, Then—divorce and alimony— Cut her out! Let not one small vice cling to you, Cut it out! In the end it may undo you. Cut it out! In its talons it will grip you. From your feet will someday trip you, Up the moral back will rip you— Cut it out! —Baltimore American.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Political and General Gossip of the National Capitol. Secial Correspondence to The Democrat: Government officials have pretty generally settled down to work again after the hurly-burly of the campaign. The president is writing his message. Or, to state it more accurately, he is getting his subordinates to write it. Not since the studious and meditative days of John Quincy Adams has any president written his annual message. In fact our national affairs are now so comprehensive and complicated that no human brain could master all the details, and a statement of them can only be approximated even with the assistance of all the members of the Cabinet. The Secretary of the Interior, for instance, has more than two hundred bureaus, institutions, commissions and agencies to superintend, and the new Secretary of Commerce and Labor is expected to try to cover about as many. That part of Mr. Roosevelt’s annual proclamation which refers to tariffs, banks and finances will be contributed by Secre r tary Shaw; that part which refers to the Panama swipe and onr foreign affairs, by Mr. Hay, etc. They a re’a 11 now busy dictating and “boiling down.” At the Cabinet meeting Friday the President counted noses and figured on how many it would be desirable cr possible to retain. Secretary Taft called again in the afternoon and talked with the President about the threatened revolt in Panama and what ought to be done about it. Admiral Walker, Chairman of the Canal Commission, met him at the White House and the coincident call is regarded as significant. Being intercepted by a newspaper man on coming out, Secretary Taft smiled in an amused way when the new “revolution” was mentioned to him and disposed of it by saying “I believe the standing army Of Panama consists of about 200 men —half of them boys. As we have over 400 marines on the Isthmus, I do not think there is danger of serious trouble." He left Friday for “the Seat of War” though all seems to be quiet there to-day. t t t The President, having preserved the dignity of his office by keeping off the stump during the campaign, is now ready to “swing rouud the circle” to a certain extent as soon as he can get away from Washington. This will not be till spring, of course, but then he means to make a large sweep including Georgia and other portions of the South. He thinks he may have been misunderstood there to some extent and Georgia newspapers seem very much in need of conciliating and hope he will retract some of the things he has said and not make a social call on Booker Washington. The admission of the negro, Williams Pickens, to the Phi Beta Kappa society at Yale is making some sensation among the Greek letter chapters hereabouts, in consideration of the fact that all members are required to meet on the same social plane. Whether Southern fraternities will recognize “Brother Pickens” or “cut” him and invoke a penalty is the question which they are now up against. In this same line may be mentioned the two remarkable grand Concerts given last week in our largest hall before an audience of three or four thousand, including

THE HOME OF VTNOL To our Customers We are anxious to have you all know that Vinol is a new form of a very old f \ and valuable remedy.

members of the Cabinet and at least a thousand of our most prominent white citizens The composer of the production is a negro. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor of London and he held the baton at the performances with great animation and earnestness. The soloists were negroes, the chorus of two hundred were negroes, the solo violinist and pianist, negroes, and the orchestra consisted of fifty-two pieces of the U. S. Marine Band. It must be admitted that the affair wa3 a success unique in America, as being the highest type of negro concert ever given in this country, and therefore in the world and it was vastly creditable to the entertainers. t f t It wasaffirmed by thesoi-distant anti-imperialists that the suppression of newspapers in Manila for constructive treason would be followed by limitations of free speech in America. Now comes the news that W. A. Sutherland, of the War Department, has “vigorously censured” one Miguel Niodao, a young Filipino student at the Illinois State Normal School, for speaking and writing disapprovingly of the friars contract and “the methods of the Catholic Church in the Philippines.” Who is Mr. Sutherland, that he should use the muzzle? Since writing the above question, I have called up the War Department by telephone and connected with Mr. Sutherland. I asked him about reprimanding young Miguel. He replied “I did not reprimand him, but only warned him not to publicly discuss politics or religion while we are sending him to our schools.” “Whose schools do you refer to?” I asked.

“Any school in this country,” He said. “Who is sending—schools?” “We are, the United States government.” “Who pays for his schooling, if you please?” “Why, the Filipinos pay for it.” “As I understand it. then, a Filipino boy whose board and tuition are paid for by the Filipinos themselves, cannot be permitted to discuss the religious or political affairs of the Philippine islands while he is within our borders?” “I did not censure him at allnot the least.” “Ah, you only warned him in the name of this government '" “Who are you? I don’t like to talk over the telephone.” Your correspondent revealed himself to the War Department and added that he presumed he was talking with Mr. Sutherland, of the Insular Bureau and Superintendent of Filipino pupils in the United States. He assented aud added that be had only done his duty. f t t There is tremendous excitement among Catholics here over the authorized announcement that the Marquise Des Monstiers, formerly Miss Mary Gwendolin Caldwell, has definitely renounced the Roman Catholic faith. She writes, closing her letter with. “At last my honest Protestant blood has I asserted itself and now forever re-1 pudiates and casts off the yoke of Rome.” Miss Caldwell gave nearly a million dollars to found and organize the great Catholic University in this city, and the news, coming as it does on top of the loss of $900,000 by the bankruptcy of an agent, is a severe blow to the University. The city itself will feel the termination of the great benefaction, especially since Mrs. Hearst has also ceased to contribute to important enterprises, here which had become associated with her name.

AMONG OUR EXCHANGES.

Goodland Herald: George Davidson came over from his Jasper county farm the first of the week to visit friends and look after his property interests here. Corn shredders and automobiles are two of the cussedest machines ever mads. It’s queer the shredders are not used in war. They grab right and left, and nothing escapes after they hook onto it. —Lake County Star. Brook Reporter: Pueblo, Colorado, will have quite a colony of Brook people in a few weeks. Mr. and Mrs. George Dobbins and Mr. and Mrs. .lohn Pence are already there, and Mr. and Mrs. Quin Lyons and Mr. and Mrs. Ed Zook will start for that place in a few days. There is lots of talk about the tax ferret business being responsible for the loss of republican votes. The tax-payers would have been better satisfied and the county treasurery better off if Hampton, the county assessor,' had kicked the leaches out and did the work himself:—Otterbein Sun.

An exchange says that a merchant in a neighboring town states that his advertising last year cost him fifty-four cents for every SIOO worth of goods sold. He used a half page for his business announcement each week and says that as long as people read the newspapers he will advertise. There's a man possessed of a good head. Just as soon as merchants begin to look upon advertising as a branch of the busiuess which requires as much care as any part of it, then will advertising pay. Honesty, force, originality and persistency in advertising make it a paj ing investment. — Speaking of the thoughtless and lawless acts of some people whose counterpart are found in all communities, an exchange says: “Some party has been guilty of destroying public sale bills in the vicinity of this town and is liable to a fine. It is a-violation of law to tear down, or cover with other advertising matter, bills that are not dead. Frequently we notice one sale bill tacked over another before the one first posted is dead. This may be considered a shrewd act from a business standpoint but it is illegal and the guilty party is liable to a fine.” One of the lessons of election results in Indiaua is that honesty is the best policy in political management as well as in private life. The will of the Indiana Democracy was thwarted last spring by force and fraud. Parker caucuses, snap primaries and gag rule convention were the order of the day during the brief period of reorganizer domination. This was not Democracy, but the brutal sway of bossism. The people who were denied a voice in the affairs of their own party could not be prevented from casting a ballot that represented righteous protest against such procedure and the lead pencils of at least 30,000 honest Democrats wrote the doom for re-organization at the polls on Nov. B,—Ex.
