the same order us usual. The bac

the class in the Catholic church oh
Sunday evening by Rev. Father Mc
Carthy. Music was rendered by the
regular choir of the church, assisted
by the Misses Kennedy and Prol. J.
II. Kennedy, with Margaret Riley or
ganist. Rev. McCarthy's sermon to
the class was brlmfull of good, sound
morality and was a masterly and
scholarly address. Tho church was
full to the doors, and tho service was
very pleasing and impressive. The
church interior is a marvel of beauty
of itself, and the beauty was enhanced
by tasteful lioral decorations.
On Tuesday evening the pupils
presented the little playlet entitled
"Fun on the Podunk Limited.' Un
der the training and direction of
Prof. Kennedy the play was a suc
cess that was flattering beyond the
fondest expectations. Prof, and
Mrs. Deitrlch did themselves credit
by their genial hospitality on Wednes
day evening, when they entertained
the High school teachers, seniors and
junior classes, members of school
board and wives and several invited
guests. It was a most delightful oc
casion to be remembered by the class
or 1909 to the end of their lives.
Thursday evening was somewhat

off very pleasantly, however, and
everybody seemed to spend an en
joyable evening.

Held this season. ,
Noticing an Item In the Carbon
dale Leader last Thursday, in tho
Wayne county items, that Samuel
Collins, of West Dyberry, raised
two acres of .Michigan corn from
which he ground five tons of corn
meal last year, wo think -now a
Rood llsh story Is very palatable
and during the many wet days of
this season, we have hoard several
big llsh stories, and the most of the
time It being our own (that Is, us
farmers) and we gather all kinds
of bait and hie away to the lake
from whence the latest fish story
came, but generally come back
home with fisherman's luck, but
Mr. Conine's corn story doesn't fit
tho palate of the farmers In this
section as their isn't nny move as
yet to try and boat the record. Al
bert O'Doll whose farm is about a
mile from Mr. Colllns's had three
acres of the same kind of corn last
year and which was recommend
ed by all of the farmers in that
section to be the best piece of corn
In Wayne county, which he says
being all ground up, cobs and all,
wouldn't make Ave tons. Don't
forget that last season was too dry
for such big farm stories, especially
In this section.

"Who's Who" at Castle Gould Work

Got In the Way of an Epithet.
Crowds Outside Court Jeer at Her as
She Leaves.
New York, June 17. Encouraged by
.i ruling of Judgo Dowllug that habit
ual drunkenness would be considered
a cause for abandonment, I)t Lancey
Xlcoll, attorney for Howard Gould,
called other employee of Castle Gould
In the suit of Mrs. Kathcrlne Oloin
inons Gould against her husband for
a soimratlon nnd !?2.-0,000 yearly al
lowance' to testify along the sumo
lines as the witnesses who declared
Mrs. Gould drank and occasionally
used profane language.
Mrs. Gould has virtually become the
defendant in the suit.
A coachman nnmod Carlson told of
having to drive with one hand on oiu
occasion, using the other to keep Mr.
Gould from falling out of the carrl igc.
Drive In Deadwood Coach Style.
Ills description of a "gallop down
the hills of Larchmont," when Mrs.
Gould drove, suggested to the hearers
a dash In regular Deadwood coach
style. Carlson proved n remarkable
1I0W.MI1 UOUI.U.
witness. Every utterance seemed to
hear the stamp of honest belief and
conviction, and he could not bo shaken
In any particulars of his testimony.
Harry Turner, who has lived ut Cas
tle Gould In charge of the greenhouses
since April, IDIH). was the first witness
called.
"Did you see Mrs. Gould under the
Influence of liquor In tho latter part of
July or tlio early part of August?" was
asked of Turner.
Turner Says She Reeled.
"At the end of July," he said, "or
early in August I was returning from
the greenhouses when I met Mrs.
Gould under the nrch of the stables.
While speaking to me she reeled
against the arch."
"Did you see her on nny other occa
sion V"
"Yes, on Nov. 0, In the presence of
other heads of departments She drove
up and commenced talking first to Mr.
Molloy. One thing Mrs. Gould said
was, 'I am Mrs. Howard Gould.' She
repeated It at least a dozen times."
"How did she act?"
"Slie walked across the room and
leaned against the wall."
William Wlsong, a laborer at Castle
Gould in 1902 and 1003, said he had
seen Mrs. Gould under the Influence of
liquor.
"Once, in 1003;" he testified, "I heard
Mrs. Gould scolding a man named
Murphy. She called him a a very vile
name."
Crowd Jeered at -Her.
When Mrs. Gould left the courtroom
she had to run the gantlet of the
ogling, Jostling and bold comments of
a thousand persons.
They ran In front of her, staring
Into her face. They trampled on her
skirts and even tried to pull aside the
veil that was tightly drawn across her
face.
The curious Idlers crowded twenty
.deep and bawled such things as "Do
you coll her good looking?" "Sure,
she's a' peach!" "Oct on to that mil
Uon.dQllar hat!"
The defense so far has called only
employees, but Howard Gould and
possibly some of his woalthy friends
will tako the witness stand.
