CARRANZISTA FOUND SHOT - De Facto Troops Participated in TejcasjRald SIARATHON, Tex, May 8The body qt Carranztsts, officer has been found at" -;"!,, 7tn cav airy, Nearly all of his address was devoted to that subject. Ho nssallcd tho callousness and the love of money which, he snld, bad character ized tills country since August 1, 1914, Tho Allies, ho said, were rcully fighting the battles of this country. Tho listening churchmen sat up with a start when the Bishop told them that war has Its spiritual uses, and, too, when ho warned against a devil's pence, "a peace purchased of nnd presided over by the devil." There Is such a pence, lie said. "Just as there Is a holy vsnr. a war In Heaven, a war on earth for Heaven's sake. In Heaven's name" Tho Bishop nRltcd for nil equal, though a voluntary and bloodless, sncrlllce that will parallel the, efforts "Hngland, Franco and Russia nra making for us." Of tho Stonemen's Fellowship, the Bishop declared the organization was 'iiom of the Spirit of God," that It has "sprung from hidden things and secret sources, and Is leading to n, goal hardly discernible and certainly not yet to bo de fined " He praised Its normal methods nnd Ideals and urged Its support. "EUROPn STRCTCHED ON CROSS." In IiIb paragraphs on the war, tho Bishop said In part; "'It is, Indeed, a suffering T'uiope stretched upon a cross It Is well for us unless we aio to lose our souls, that wo should enter Into the fellowship of that buffering.' I quoto these wordi from n notnhle nddicss which I was privileged to hear not long ago "Much ef that suffering, brethren. Is for us, In our behalf, splendidly, moVlngtv, vicarious. Can we doubt It or deny It? This Is a war not so much between men or between nations ns between Ideals and principles. The Issue Is very clearly drawn Ab tlmo goes on It becomes Increasingly apparent It was a poor tribute to the Teutonic nations not to recognlzo that their efllclcncy and resolution on tho bat tlefield Is tho expression of a political, moral and religious creed. They aro fight ing for a faith, and they know what that laun is. "MIGHT AGAINST RIGHT" "Over against them are the Allies, heterogeneous, Ill-assorted, caught un awares, not taught or trained to think or to net In concert, feeling their way, find ing their souls, learning by degrees tho secret of their strength Thoy, too, havo come together on the basis of a common faith. "The Issue, I say, Is clear, but It Is easier to feel and recognize It thnn to put It precisely Ipto "wprds,.n means too much lt Cornea too " close Democracy against autocracy Is part of It; but wo dare not tpeak too glibly In this matter, for democracy has suffered more by the betrayal of Its friends than by tho onset of Its enemies. Faltbfulness to national obligation over against the cynlqil op portunism of national selfishness Is part of It; but hero again no one's nandu are scrupulously clean. Tho right of might against the might of right is also part of it, and on this point we can more con fidently Judge the Allies worthy of their cause. "Clearest of all Is the Issue set and the line drawn between those who despise and those who magnify tho claim of tho weak and small upon the great and strong. Surely on this greatest of all Issues there can be no hesitation for us. WAR IN OUIt BEHALF." ' "The ideals of brotherhood and of the generous service of the weak and needy give all the keynote of our Constitution and the true interpretation of all our his tory and Institutions. "Political neutrality may be a duty, while political peace is unimpaired. But moral and .spiritual neutrality In this great war were for us Americans un worthy and unnatural. It Is, Indeed a war for usr In our behalf, "God grant us never for a moment to bo unmindful of It, or to fall In our full acknowledgment. "And this war waged for us: shall It not inspire ua to high, adventure? Js there not a war for U3 to wage? Is it not strictly true that 'unless we are to lose our souls, we must enter Into the fellow ship of Europe's suffering" God forbid that J should be understood to mean primarily, of necessity, the putting of armies In the field and navies In the seas : the ordeal by battle ; the wrestling against flesh and blood. No, I have In mind the. voluntary and more exacting sacrifice of the spirit In Its wrestling against spiritual enemies. "Earthly warfare has Its spiritual uses. Out of it God brings the flower and frtlt of faith and faithfulness. In It he vindicates his Lordship. Let no one who believes n Christ deny thls A flood of perfectly convincing evidence tells of a purified, ennobled, loving and unselfish life that Is being born In England, France and Russia. Belgium.

PRIESTS TOLD TO SHUN BALLS FOR CHARITY Consistorial Decree Reported From Rome Puzzles Catholics Here ROME. May 9. A consistorial decree handed down today' upholds the Baltimore council's decision forbidding Catholla priests to organize or personally attend charity bans. Officials, of tho archdiocese of Philadel phia today said that they had not hoard of tho reported action of the Congrega tion of tho Consistory nnd expressed be lief that the d)spatch -was not correct, "No Information of the character con tained irj 'the Rome dispatch has reached here, saiu me ivev. x.urui, o, ',t mnurlcc, D. D., chancellor of ha archdio cese, "and it Is very doubtful that the Congregation of the Consistory would hand down such an Important decree at the present time, I think there Is a mistake somewhere." Tho Congregation of the Consistory, Is a meeting of a number of Cardinals, who legislate on matters relating to discipline within the church. They rarely hand down a decree slmilnr to that reported today unless they have received com plabit from a number of church digni taries In tho locality affected that there are certain abuses which need elimina tion. The Council of Baltimore, held In 1884, decided against certain methods of rais ing money for charity. The reference to charity balls In. the Baltimore decision re fers probably to that portion of the de cisions which oppose a tendance -at balls at which a dinner precedes the dancing. The decisions relating to this subject are more clearly appreciated only after a reading, of the whole matter discussed at the Council. TOO I.ATB FOB riSSIFIPA.TIOV 1IE1.V WANT ED FEMALE CLERKS.
