PRIESTS MUST NOW OFFICIATE ATMARR!AGES New Catholic Ruling to Affect America.

London, Feb, 21 It is learned that the following important decision affecting American mixed marriages will be published next week by the Sacred Congregation of the Council at Rome in answer to questions from many American Bishops: "Recent decrees on marriage abolish all previous legislation and regulates the marriages of Catholics with non-Catholics everywhere except in Germany. After next Easter all such

marriages will be invalid unless celebrated before a duly qualified priest

in tie presence of two witnesses."

Hitherto marriages of Catholics and

non-catnoiics in American were rec

ognized as valid although unlawfully

contracted when celebrated before

civil authorities or before ministers of

another religion. According to the

new decision a Catholic who marries

a non-Catholic, unless in the pre.

scribed form, is regarded ns living in

concubinage.

A MURDER HINTED AT.

The mystery surrounding the finding of the body in the box car at Cincinnati has at last been solved. The suicide has been identified as John Reed,

who lived at 10o5 Brown street, Dayton, O. When the body was first found Deputy Coroner Coe, of Cincinnati was positive that it was a Richmond man, and the local police did everything possible to confirm this belief, but without success. The identification was made by David Reed, 498 Hermese avenue, Covington, Ky., and Walter Reed of Piqua, O., who testified that the body was that of their brother. He was thirty-nine and an employe of the National Cfesh Register company, but had been laid off the first of the month and had been in Cincinnati looking for work. Reed was last seen by his relatives Thursday, of last week, when he left the home of his brother in Covington. The brothers said he had a gold watch and ring when he left there. When found he had nothing on him of value, save fifty cents in money. The brothers hold to the theory of murder. Deputy Coroner Coe, who made a post mortem Wednesday night, found that death was due to strangulation, as was indicated by the finding of the handkerchief tightly knotted about his throat. All the surroundings indicate suicide, and it is thought that Reed

had probably sold or pawned his valuables and spent the money.

ROOSEVELT FOR SPEAKER OF NATIONAL HOUSE.

Editor Palladium While the people of the United States are deeply interested as to who should be and who will bo the next president of the United States, the people of Europe as well as the citizens of the United States are wondering, what position will President Roosevelt occu

py at the expiration of his present term. j Upon the death of President McKin- j ley in lsiul, Mr. Roosevelt was called upon to assume the responsibilities and carry out the policies of his pred- j ecessor. After serving the people of the United States for nearly seven I years ho has displayed to them, his 1

marvelous executive ability as well as his great insight into the welfare of America. Twenty-six of the most noted men in the world have given their opinions which range as to his future position, from a good rest to the governor of the Philippines. While President

is the memorandum, "Gen. Washington's certificate for Col. Barber," and "Recorded in Registry of Certificates, P. 2. No date. Robert Ogden, clerk." Francis Barber was prominent in New Jersey at the time of the revolution. He was a graduate of Princeton college and taught in the academic Institution in Elizabeth conducted by the First Presbyterian church, where Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr were students. In the war for independence he served as an aid of General Steuben, as an adjutant to Major General Lord Stirling, and was deputy adjutant to Major General Nathaniel Greeue. He was wounded at the battle of Monmouth and at the siege of Yorktown. His wooing of Nancy Ogden, of Eliz

abeth, a noted beauty of the colony, formed the basis of several tales, among them being It is said, Paul Leicester Ford's "Janice Meredith." Colonel Barber was killed at New Windsor, near Newburg, February 1, 1783, while acting as officer of the day. His horse fell upon him. The news ol the

husband's death was not received by the young wife until she arrived that evening at headquarters to dine with General Washington, who frequently entertained the young couple.

DOES IT PAY?

Does what pay? Why making improvements or adopting methods for extending trade. The answer to this is, "It pays if you make it pay." It is a fact

that some business men make a large improvement and then expect to receive all the trade. But usually the large things take care of themselves: it is the close application to the small details that make a business a

plete any of the tasks that have been attributed to him after his leaving the white house, the paramount position

for our great executive is the Speaker

of the National House of Representa

tives. Since the establishment of our constitution in 1787, the speakership has been a position of more legislative power than any other office in the federal government and as the time has passed it has been the source of political power and corruption. Yearly we hear of the abuses of the speaker who has such great power over the committees that he is practically the only legislator. The opposing party may plead for legislation and although backed by the citizens of the United States, their appeals will be buried with thousands of others in the "congressional graveyard." In a letter made public some time ago the president vigorously defends his policy and shows to the American people that he Is not "playing politics." but Is appointing the best and most capable men for federal offices. Should the president assume the speakership of the national house of representatives it would require an amendment to the constitution, but once in that chair his judicious executive ability would do away with the power and corrupt iou that now and always has been the c-haracteritir of that .office.
