Vallery, and the earlier years of her life were spent in Cass county, but left for the great northwest in 1876. where she has since made her home. Mrs. Wright and Miss Vallery were pleasant call ers at the Journal office yesterday evening, and it sure makes, a very interesting; story to listen to the trials and hardships of the many people that took part in the rush for the northwest during those years of which she was a member. She is a real pioneer of that part of the country, but very few of such early settlers are left to tell the tale. She is eighty-three years old, in excel lent health, and as her family; hus band, son and daughter, have all departed this lift, she is conducting a boarding house in the town of Fruitdale, and enjoys the work. Mrs. Wright is certainly a remarkable lady for one of her years. EIGHT MILE GROVE LUTHERAN CHURCH W. C. T. U. Meets. The June meeting of the W. C. T.

Mexico City Archbishop Leopoldo Ruiz and Bishop Pascual Diaz talk ed for half an hour Monday with the secretary of President Emilio Portes Gil, but otherwise made no public move toward opening negotiations for the settlement of the religious controversy. It was believed that their visit was to fix a time for an interview with the president. The bishops continued to refused to receive callers to make any state ment. Everything possible has been done to keep, their place of residence secret. The Rev. Dr. Edmund Walsh, vice president of Georgetown uni versity, who has been in Mexico City for five weeks confers daily with the bishops. United States Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow declined to make any statement on the religious situation. He read an article In a local news paper quoting a Catholic priest as saying President Hoover had taken an extra official part in efforts to set tle the controversy and had sent In structions to Mr. Morrow in that re gard, but the ambassador only smiled and refused to confir mthe report. Mr. Morrow saw the president at Chapultepec castle early Monday af ternoon and later callel at the for eign office. Dr. Walsh denied report3 that he had been appointed an envoy of the Vatican. "As the existing differences lie entirely between the Mexican gov ernment and the Catholic churc!i in j Mexico," he said. "The holy see has (very properly appoined a Mexican iprelate of high standing (Archbi.shop Ruiz) to bring to successful terrain ation negotiations which resulted from the constructive and praise I worthy statements made by the rres 'ident of the republic on May S."
