Later the report was modified when word was given wut that an aged woman had been so seriously injured in the stampede that fear for her recovery was expressed by officials of the first aid station at Mundelein where she was carried for medical atten-- Scores of women and children fainted in the rush. So tightly were they pressed together waiting to board the trains that they were held up by the weight of the mob. Med-- ical attendants passed out hundreds of cups of water to women and chil-- dren as well as men who complain-- ed they would collapse unless aid scorching sun appeared which coup-- M'Wm"mdh-: manity moving slowly out of the grounds made the heat almost un-- bearable for those caught in the center of the movement.

At eight o'clock Thursday night the steady stream of people eontin-- ued to pour from the seminary gates and traffic experts estimated that there were still over 50,000 people on the grounds at that timé .. -- > In spite of the traffic difficulties encountered, the greatest gathering of all time was dispersed with amaz-- across lots through fields and lanes walking to Libertyville and even as far as Lake Bluff and Lake Forest to board trains. ~The automobile traffic was dis-- persed through the back routes with almost perfect order and within five hours after the closing of the Con-- gress the greater majority of the machines had departed. Local restaurants, ice cream and soft drink establishments did a thriving business late in the day when the pilgrims began to stream through the village on their way to the waiting special trains at the Milwaukee depots. 5# Probably never again will Lake county be the scene of a religious spectacle of such international im-- portance. _ Pilgrims from every eountry in the land were seen at the Congress meet. The contrast of the different races of people combined in such a huge mass, all devout fol-- Jowers of the Roman Catholic relig-- jon, was an interesting one. The eyes of the world were focused on Mun-- delein for 24 hours and in that short space of time over 1,000,000 people entered and left the seminary j[ngndn. and departed for. their homes in all the four, corners of .

Mrs, Mabel Christopher of High-- land Park, widow of Samuel Chris-- topher, who was killed --some months ago by Arthur Klein, a Cook county motorcycle policeman after he is alleged to failed to obey orders to stop his car, was granted a mothers pension of $456 per=month Wednes-- day by County Judge Perry L. Per-- sons. The pension will start July 1. _ _ Mrs. Christopher has one child, Ruby, 6 years old, and has been receiving aid from Supervisor Wil-- husband. The county' aid was not sufficient for Mrs. Christopher and her little girl and it is doubtful if the mothers pension will provide the needed relief for them, according to Miss Mary Polmateer, probation offi-- cer, who investigated the case. Christopher was shot and fatally injured one night in March while in Dundee road near Highland Park, being enroute home from a lodge On recommendation of a coroners jury, State's Attorney A. V. Smith preferred a charge of manslaughter against Klein and he is out in bonds. The case is to be presented to the grand jury in October and if an in-- dictment is returned trial will be held early in October.. Klein testified at the inquiry held by Coroner J. L. Taylor that Christoph-- er while driving a Ford touring car attempted to elude him after being ordered to stop. He said he fired three shots and that the first two shots penetrated the tires of the machine, while the third accidently went high and struck the autoist in the head.
