Brother Moorman Likes the Old-Fashioned Kind of Religion.

Judging from the following criticism of “Billy” Sunday in the Knox Republican, Brother Moorman is in favor of the old-fashioned religion, where charity played a greater part than bunco. Here is J. L. M.’s com- » ment: “South Bend ministers have ‘elected’ Billy Sunday to come among them and preach. The amusement parks have doubtless closed for the season and the play houses are tardy in getting started. They had to have some sort of amusement in the big city on the St. Joe so they got Sunday to come and do his spectacular, religioprofanation stunt. They will find him naughty but nice, irreverent but religious. That’s Sunday, and he was a good ball player.” Charles F. Treat, United States treasurer, has called attention to the fact that the portraits of three Indiana men adorn the walls of the treasurer's office, all of them having served in the office of treasurer. The portraits are of John C. New, James N. Huston and E. H. Nebeker. A number of Indiana men are striving to add a fourth portrait to the group by aspiring to fill the_ vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Mr. Treat. N. B. Hawkins, a banker of Portland, who was the republican nominee for congress from the Eighth district last year, is the most conspicuous name mentioned. Marion has a mild apidemic of smallpox. There are five cases in the town up to the present time. 4

Interesting Items From St. Joseph College.

In spite of the few boys that have left the college because they could not stand it to be so far away from home, the total pumber has been* raised to 240. The general ffh&racter ojf the present student body is a very good one, and the college has been most fortunate in obtaining such a large number of gentlemanly youths. \ The C. L. S. held their first regular meeting last Sunday. A large number of the old members answered the roll call, and a large number of applications for admission were presented. There is no doubt that the social, literary and dramatic work of the society will be of its usual high ..stand-’ ard and excellence. Hon. E. P. Honan will again have charge of their parliamentary instructions. The religious services last Sunday were conducted by Fathers Kramer and A. Schuette. The carpenters have left the sister’s house and the painters and varnishers are adding the beautifying touches. The interior of Ihe church is also taking on its proper form as the lathers proceed with their work. The other evening a new Ford was stranded on the pike near the college and the driver soon found that if all the good advice that a lusty bunch of college students can give would put. spirit into an engine, there would never be any need of telephoning to the garage for a motor tug. It is a well-known fact that the college has always extended a cordial welcome to all visitors. This continues true. But to see a number of lasses, still in their early teens, strolling unchaperoned about the college premises seeking occasion for flirting is neither complimentary to themselves nor beneficial to local discipline. The guardians of the students here are determined that‘there shall be no more of it.

She is resting quite easily now, but the shock of the injuries will go hard with one of her age, and she will be a long time, at least, in recovering. Her son, Rev. O. K. Kennedy, of Nebraska, is also here.

George Hopkins, the carpenter, is making very slow improvement from his injured foot, and it will probably be two months or more before he can bear his weight on it. He was working at Greensburg, Kans., in June and stepped on a nail. A fellow workman thought to do some doctoring and filled the wound with turpentine and some other stuff and George has been having it treated by graduate physicians ever since. It was a case of the injury not being so bad as the treatment. He is getting out some now with the aid of crutches but It will be six months from the time of the accident until he can get on his foot again, and he will be permanently injured to the extent of several stiff toes.
