Tampico, Mexico, July 27,
A decree limiting the scope
of theKomauCatbolic Church
in the State of Nuevo Leon
on the ground of "public
health, morality and justice,"
was issued today by Antonio
I Villareal, Governor and
military commander. He
said:
"Daring the life of the Na
tion, the Church has been
a pernicious factor in disrupt
tiouaud discord and has en
tirely forgotten its spiritual
mission."
The most drastic feature of
the decree is the prohibition
ofcouf ession . Villareal gi ves
as (his reason for this the
charge that the confessional
aDd the sacristy in Mexico
have become a menace moral
ity. The decree issued in Mon-
son the privilege has bf en ac
corded five Catholic Churches
of reopening their doors in
Monterey."
Catholic Churches recently
have been closed in Saltillo
San Luis Potosi and Nuevo
Laredo.

that it oame from the printing

Hot Chase After u
Last Saturday night about
12 o'clock there was a great
commotion and some exciti
ment in tha west ward section
when Policeman Williams,
Chief Miller and Chief of the
fire Department Brown, as
sisted by half of the popula
tion of Salisbury, gave chase
to a man by the name of Ky
lej aud emptied their pistols
at him. The story goes that
Kyles who is a Statesvilie
man, but a former resident ot
Salisbury, held up D C Lntz
and another man by the
name ot Black both, of thi
city while they were riding
in his automobile. " The rob
ber took $45 of Mr. Leutz
money and a gold watch.
The suprising-part of the af
fair is manner in which Ky
les escaped getting shot.
He ran in a rour.d about way
from the Dublic sauara to
Livingstone College bnfore he
was finally caught. He was
tried i.i the county court
Monday morning and was
sent up to the next trm of
Rowan Superior Court.

Catholic schools and churches
"1 All forign Catholic
priests and jesuits of what
ever nationally will be ex pel -led
from the State of Nuevo
Leon.
2 Of the remaining Cath
olic priests those who cannot
prove their complete absten
tion from politics will be ex
pelled. "3 Churches will remain
open daily from six in the
morning until oue in the af
ternoon. Only priests having
permission to do so will be
permitted to officiate.
"4 Confession is prohibit
ted.
"5 The public is prohibit
ted from enteringthe sacristy.
"6 Church bells shall
ring only to celebrate priests
in honor of the country, or
for triumphs of tbe arms of
the Constitutionalists.
7 All Catholic colleges
shall-be closed which do not
obey programs and texts or
dered by officials and which
do not have at their head
some professor who is a grad
uate of the normal schools of
the country, who will be pun
ishable by a fine of $100 meat
for any infraction af tbe rub
ier,
"8 Any infraction of the
laws will be punishable by a
fine of $100 to $500 and ar
rest and imprisonment from
2 to 4 months, or both fine
and imprisonment. In event
of a second offense the school
will be close."
Explaining the grounds for
.this action, Villareal's decree
reads:
4 'In the interest of public
health, morality and justice
the State of Nuevo Leon will
limit the scope of the Catho
lic Church, which during its
life has entiiely fcrgotton its
SDiritual mission, its sole
right to be recognized by
modern society. The Church
has consecrated itself princi
pally tor conquest in politics.
To secure its objects it always
has been allied with the re
actionary government and
the despots and even with
foreisrn invaders. It has
showed itself an implacable
enemy to the Liberal move
ment and progress from the
first revolution of Ayutla un
til the present time, and- has
fulminated its ridiculious ex
communications over the
the most grand and glorious
benefactors of the country,
Hidalgo, J uarez and Lerdo de
Tejada.
'The pretorial and clerical
rulings of Porfirio Diaz and
Huerta, against which the
Mexican people have been
strugging herocially for many
years, have had its benedic
tion tor tne crimes ana cor
ruptions of Huerta and has
unsuccessfully worKea to in
cite tb.6 public against the
Constitutionalist cause."
Some of the ceremonials of
the Church were criticised,
Villareal alleging that in
Mexico they have tendered
toward weaking of moral
c jaracter. The colleges came
under his disapproval also
and he declared it the course
of wisdom to close the cleri
j a a a
cat scnoois rortne present on
the sround "it is a supreme
Kational necessity to stamp
out at the root the arrogant
abuses of the Catholi cChurch
aud remove the grave danger
which the institution repre
sents, more political than re
ligious for the tranquility
and future progress of the
country. It is not the in
tention of this Government
not to recognize liberty or
conscience,
bought tan which: he sold to
paper mills and there was a great
pile cf those in tre rear corner of
the omoe and Vogler informed
the Negro that there was nothing
to do but to ohew rags and he
went to woik chewing, for wlut
purpose he knew not, the pile of
rigs. Mr. Bruner spied him and
aiktd Vogler what that "nigger"
was doing baok there and wai
informed that he was "chewing
the rag." and from that day this
expression nas oeen going tne
rounds until it is used all over the
country. That was many years
ago.

LACK OF ATTENTION 13 CAUSE
OF MANY FAILURES.
Good Reasons for Expecting Contlnua
tion of High ' Prices for Mutton
and Lamb Demand, for Wool ,
la on the Increase,
The consumption of mutton per
capita In the United States is Increas
ing every year, though .the amount
used Is much less in proportion to
other meat than In Europe. There
are good reasons for expecting a
continuation of good prices for
mutton and lamb, and the demand for
wool also may be expected to increase
more rapidly than the . production.
These facts are brought out In a re
cent letter from a specialist of the
department of agriculture to a south
ern farmer who.' inquired regarding
the possibilities of the sheep business.
The department's' specialist called
attention to- the fact that while farm
raised sheep hare often not been
profitable, this has usually, been be
cause of lack of proper attention and
management. Variations in . price of
wool and mutton hare Btood In the
way of such general Interest in sheep
as would cause them to be regarded
as highly as they should be in the
future. Ranges all over, the world are
now carrying about as many sheep as
they can support under a strict range
system, and an Increase in the pro
duction of sheep products must come
mainly from farms. Here, then, is
the farmer's opportunity to take ad
vantage of the increased consump
tion of these products.
While mutton can be produced, at
low cost and there is a growing de
mand for it, difficulty In -selling may
be experienced In sections where the
amount of live stock produced has
not been sufficient to make it worth
while for regular buyers to operate.
Slaughtering plants that can handle
carloads are within reach of all sec
tions, and if a sufficient number of
neighbors combine to have 100 lambs
of similar breeding, size and condi
tion to ship jointly the returns are as-
Alfalfa-Fed 8heep.
aured. It will also be possible to se
cure visits and bids from buyers when
such a number is promised. The
lamb clubs of Tennessee, notably the
one at Goodlettsville, . have proved
very successful in this work.
The same organization can, also be
used In disposing of the wool.
In countries where economy in farm
management has been studied a long
time, the sheep Is considered to be
necessary In utilizing vegetation on
such waste lands as are not wet or
marshy. But the sheep can hold ita
.place on high-'priced land as a meat
producer alone. Compared with
larger animals it has some important
advantages. First, the lambs mature
very rapidly, being marketable at
four months of age or later, accord
ing to breeding and feeding. This is
an economy because a larger propor
tion of the total feed goes Into In
crease of weight than In slower grow
ing animals. Second, the sheep con
sumes a greater variety of plants
than do other animals. Many of such
plants are detrimental to pastures and
would otherwise require hand labor
to hold them in check. Third, grain
waste in harvesting can be entirely
recovered by sheep. These facts
prompt some farmers to claim that
the summer food of sheep costs noth
ing, because what they consume would
otherwise, bring no returns.
Compared with hogs the sheep has
an advantage in the wider variety of
materials it consumes. Being a
ruminant it make ita gain with a
minimum of grain and expensive con
centrates. This is especially impor
tant on those kinds of lands that are
better adapted to the production ot
forage crops than to grain growing.
POINTS OF A PROFITABLE HEN
Good Sign of Healthy Fowl When
Comb Is Plump and Red and Wat
tles of a Bright Color.
If the comb of the hen is plump
and red, and the face and wattles of a
bright color, It la a good sign that
she is In health and laying condition.
If confined at such a time she will
show great restlessness, wonderful ac
tivity and be full of business when at
liberty.. She will be on the alert at
every sound or motion.
On the other hand, if the comb ap
pears shriveled, or the edges of the
comb and wattles are of a purplish
red, she will be listless, sleepy and
sluggish in her movements.
In such a case she hi out of condi
tion and is either sick or likely to be
before very long.
