they did to this country come and at
the ship I did leatn how evil were
my people hole. Then to my lather I
aid wiite, telling him that It Is I who
must preach to our people. AVhat

CATHOLIC HISTORICAL SOCIETY
Attorney John Gunster on the
Church and Civil Law.
Attorney John Gunster read a -very
able paper last night bc-foro tho Catho
lic Histoitcal society on "The Church
and Civil Law." He bought to prove
that the fosteiing influence of the
church has had much to do with tho
shaping of the baslo principles of mod
el n cill law,
Ho ildlctiled the Idea that the Catho
lic ehuich is opposed to a republican
toun ot government. Thu oldest re
public in the world, San Marino, is a
Catholic republic, he said, and of the
twenty-nine republics existing today,
twenty-onu are Catholic. The first
stand for religious and civil freedom
made In this country, he contended,
was made by the Catholic, Calverts in
Maiyland.

THOSE BUNK AND CALL MEN.
Not Enough Money to Pay Them
Even if They Are Secured.
According to computations inudo by
Director of Public Safety Hitchcock
and Chief Zlzelmann of the lire depai t
meitt, the $.1,000 which the appropria
tion ordinance proposes should be set
aside for bunk and call men will only
go a third of the way towards meet
ing that expense.
It Is tiguted that theic is an avenge
of ono alarm a day und takiut; last
i Sunday morning's fire as a critei Ion.
It will tost $28 for bunk and cull men
for each hre, or $l0,32u for a year's lire1.
Director Hitchcock will nsk for nn .id
ditonal appropriation.
The examination of tho applicants
for the new places In the fiui depai t
ment has been completed and the IhmiiI
Is at work on Its report.
Out of tho ISO men coiuptlslng tlio
volunteer depai ttne-nt, only 07 made
application fur tho 115 positions and
only 32 of tho 07 applied for the bunk
and call places, the other 63 being can
didates for tho 22 new full paid per
manent places.
Under the terms of tho ordinance it
Is permissible to diaft icerults tiom
outside the companion If the pieseut
ilrenien do not come forward In suf
ficient number to till out the quota.
Recorder Molr and Ditector Hitchcock
both say this will bo done if necessary.
They believe-, however, that alter the
twenty-two full paid positions .tie tilled
a large number of the disappointed
candidates 'will be content to accept
the bunk and call places.
At preaent, there arc thirty -five lull
paid men in the fire- department. Tho
