Paris, Oct. 14.—A great sensation has been caused by the confession of Antoine Thomas, of Ciermant Fer- Taud, who was arrested, with bis mother and his brother, charged with complicity in the theft of the fa- mous cope of Urth, which belonged to thestate and was valued at $120,- 000, from the church of Ambazac, near Limoges. For months precious relics have bern disappearing from churches, creatiig the presumption thats gang of thieves was systematically at work, Thomas, who gave b‘meelf up t6 Clear his mother and brother, declares that after the passage of the eburch and state separation law and the taking of the church inveutories began, antiquaries of Paris, some of whom are milllonatres, bired him and Others to go through the country jand bribe the parish priests to sur- ‘render the relics and substitute coun terfeits which could later be turned over to the state. He says this plan of operation continued for months, but as many of the most valuable church treasures could not be coun- | terfelted, he finally went boldly {nto , the business of wholesale burglary. ! Thomas estimated the amount of his | robberies at $400,000. The cope of Orth belonged to the Order of Grammont, or Grammon- tains, whose monastery was in Mures, vear Limoges. It disappear- ed during the French revolviton, when the order was dissolved and later turned up in the charch of Am- | bazcc, from which it was atolon. Thomas cays he sold 1% to an anti. quary of London for $10,000. A cope is an article of ecclusiastical vesture !n the Roman Catholicchurch.

Jefferson City, Oct. 14.—Governor Folk granted the first application for pardon made to him when he be- came governor. This pardon will release William H.

Voser see the beam fn his own eye. In his county seat paper, Governor Riddle puts the question about where it ought t» be answered. In tact he has a series of them that are worth considering. Vice: Have you returned for taxation all your property and at its true value? Do you use @ seine for fishing? Do you shoot game out of season? Do you throw your garbage In the street? Are there weeds on your etreet front more than a foot high? Ts your gasoline can painted red? Do you ran your automobile faster than fifteen miles an hour? Do you pay the preacher what you promised him or do you expect your salvation free? Do you leave your horse untied on the public street? Do you pasture your chickens on your neighbor's garden? Do you use profane language on the public atreet? Do you put the large potatoes on top? : Are you as careful of rented prop- erty as if it were your own? Did you ever in your whole life re- turn a borrowed book? Or an umbrella? Did you listen with avidity to the nasty gorsip about your neighbor? Do you pay for your paper or beat the printer? Mr. Citizen, when you are assault- ing the truete and monopolies, and beloga red-hot-r. former, what about your own derelictions?
