THE AMERICAN. IN THE Clutch of Rome. t Clr Y RIGHT D.I BV "GONZALES." CHAPTER XXI.-Continued. THE DEMOS OF JK.ALOISY. Father St. Johu, by that romlng ocean, solitary und alone, away from any familiar reminder of hit) calling, did not attempt to reason mitb tlois-lf for bis mad jealousy of the youth who bad taken her to the ball. With the Inconsistency of weak humanity, he re sented her going to the ball as a deep Id jury done himself. In hi presence, she had once refuted to dance, telling him, with BHd youcg eyes raised to his own, that bhe did not care for it, and that it tired her. Ah, but that was when she lived and breathed for him alone; and Father St. John tonight felt angry with himself that he had taught her to regard him in another ligbt.and with her, for learning his lesson; and the priest found satisfaction In the thought that perhaps, In her heart of hearts, she had not ceased to love him as be at one time had tried to help her think was an absurdity and a sin, and now, girl-like, was she satisfied with their close friendship and tho knowl edge that though he could never bo anything more to her than friend and pastor, he could never be more than that to another? Father St. John knew tonight that it was beyond his power to live his dual life much longer, and he longed for the climax, which he knew must come, and crouching in the sand, with his body resting against a rock, in the bright moonlight, with the raging billows be fore him, the pastor of the Church of the Blessed Sacrament made plans for the future life, In which the church as he knew her now should have no part, but where a sweet young girl, with a pure, loving heart, bright braids of chestnut hair, and truthful, paDsy eyes, was always the central figure. CHAPTER XXII. WHAT LOVE CAN DO. At the Mardi Gras ball, Dr. Wood was seated in the spe -.ta tors' gallery, looking down w.th his Mephistophelian smile on the numbers beneath him, as they moved in sparkling lines of color among the harmonious tones of gold, lilac, crimson and silver of the decora tions of the palace of the king and queen of raillery; as they wound around each other In the grand march, In spired by the world's courted, smiled upon, frowned upon, cursed and loved, but always darling folly, who sat upon ber winged steed over the entrance to the hall of revelry, looking down on her devotees. "Ah, but don't they hate to say good bye to them for forty long days," said Dr. Wood half to himself and half to a prosaic looking gentleman by his side, who was thinking "that the decorations had made the old hall look uncommonly nice, ar d that the people below looked extremely well in their gay costumes." The gentleman lifted his eyebrows: "What do you mean, Doctor; no one is saying good bye yet?" "Don't you know, Sir," said the doc tor, "that society has met here tonight to dance, feast, drink and be merry.acd to throw sops to their loved deities of carnal pleasure, because they are obliged to say good-bye to them for a time, out of respect to the God to whom they owe their existence, and upon whose mercies thej rely for eternal salvation, and who fasted something over eighteen hundred years ago, for their sokes; and whom they hope to appease for the rest of the year, by showing him the same respect? Whether you know it or not, it's even so, and bless your soul, Sir, every one of these fair dames down there has a con solation awaiting her in her wardrobe penitential robes made with an eye to the effect of etyiish humility, which they will express as the wearer glides softly down the aisle in the dark,richly tinted light of the church, or kneels in humble prayer; and she must not forget the instructions of her dressmaker as she kneels, or the effect will be spoiled. Yes, I tell you. Sir, theso meek and lowly gowns require as careful planning as those velvet and silk creations we see down there." And Dr. Wood looked over the rail ing of the gallery, and ere the wicked little chuckle had died awsy in his throat a gentleman who had been quietly making his way through the crowded gallery touched him on the shoulder, at the same time handing him a note, wbich he said a messenger had just brought. The note was a sum mons to the residence of Senator Max well, and was signed by that gentleman himself. The doctor, who was much surprised at the contents of the note, for he sup posed Senator Maxwell to be in Wash ington, soon arrived at the house. The servant who admitted him conducted him at once to Mrs. Maxwell's apart ment. Senator "Maxwell, white and anxious looking, met him at the door. "Quick, Doctor," he said, "I believe my wife is dying," and he ushered Dr. Wood into his wife's sleeping room. Mrs. Maxwell lay on the bed in a death-like swoon, with Margaret and her maid applying what had proved to be useless restoratives. Under the practiced skill of the physician, Mrs, Maiwell wns, after a time, rveloretl to coom-ii uok, and a to n as she had gained sufficient strength, Dr. Wood gave ord.-ri that she be put to bed at once. Then, taking the senator by the arm, he led him Into the adjoining room, closing the dor between the nx nn. Still keeping the arm of the senator, he said: Cone with me, I want to talk to you." And he pushed aside the heavy silken folds tf the b'ue and Ivory portiere, which dlfided the large room In two, in t as its folds fell back after them, he said: "Now sit down and Uj!1 mo when jou arrived, and what has caused this sud den illness of your wife, which may 01 mav not prove serious?" "What I am about to tell you," said the sena'or, "I request you to regard as a professional secret." The doctor bowxl. "It is unpleasant forme to tell even you what I am about to, but under the circumstances, I think it advisable. I arrived home this morning, In re sponse to a letter received from my sis terher second, she tells me, though the only one I received the contents of which made me think it would be well for me to come homo Booner than I had intended. Perhaps yoi are aware that my wife is a Roman Catholic by birth and education?" "From her nationality, I took It for granted," said the doctor, "but before you tell me anything further, Sir, I will state that I am to some extent aware that trouble of a religious nature was hovering over your houso. On two occasions I met a priest, called Father St. John, here, and yoJr sister Martha has confided to me the anxiety she has felt for all concerned. Of course, as this did not come under my jurisdiction, I had no right to interfere; and believ ing your wife to bo a Catholic, I really thought that your sister was giving herself more anxiety than the circum stances warranted. I merely mentl n this to give you to understand that I am not entirely ignorant o' what, I divine, you are about to speak." "It is true," taid S.-nator Maxwell, "that my wife is a Roman Catholic, but we were married under circumstances which killed all her love for her re ligion. At least, her conduct up to the present time led me to suppose so. In fact, I stole her from the convent, with the help of the abbess, where her rela tives had imprisoned her to prevent our marriage. Wo were married by the captain of the steamship on which we made our escape to this country. Sue trusted me implicitly when I as sured her that we were as truly man and wife a If all the priests aid min isters on the land had united us, but on arriving in New York I told her that if she felt any scruples as to the legiti macy of our marriage I would find a priest of her faith to say the religious ceremony over us; but she was so in dignant at the treatment she had re ceived at their-hands that she emphat ically declined my suggestion. For my part, I knew nothing on earth could alter the fact that she was my wife, ac cording to all civil law, and, of course, according to the rules of her church.no Protestant religiou service could have bettered our condition "The subject, I feel safe to say, never entered either of our minds again, till within the last two months, when, dur ing my absence, a tmooth-voiced, in sinuating priest was introduced into the house by that pretty Jesuit tool, Miss Dillon, the governess, whom I dis charged in a very tummary manner to day." Then Senator Maxwell confided to Dr. Wood that on his arrival home he had found his wife more ill and nervous than her physical condition warranted, and how by slow degrees he had learned from her that, under the influence of the priest, whom she had defended and blessed for making her see the enormity of the life she was leading; when he, her husband, had, in just anger, cen sured, in plain and bitter terms, his in terference. She had become convinced that her marriage was unhallowed in the sight of Heaven and that her chil dren were sufferers with her, though they were innocent; though she trusted she had mediated their unhappy state by having them baptized in the true faith. "Of course, I was very angry when I learned that my wife, under the in fluence of a stranger, had, in my ab sence, done that which she knew I would not have allowed, had I been present to prevent it." "I can understand your feelings, Sir," said Dr. Wood, "but after all, your children are so young that the sprink ling of a little holy water cannot affect their principles in after-life; and, if it is any consolation to your wife, why " "Ah, but it's the principle of the thing I look at," interrupted the sena tor. "What right had these meddling priests to come into my house, in my absence, and interfere with my most sacred relations?" "As near as I can understand," said the doctor, with his ironic smile, "be cause they thought your relations were not sacred." "Bosh," said the senator, angrily. "Well," he continued, "I relieved my mind somewhat by paying the gov erness an extra month's salary and sending her out of the house, bag and 1 baggige. Then, a fur thinking the J matter over, I determined to make the best of matter and UUry and maka my poor wife forget this lira strm of our peaceful, domestic life; but, though she seemed to struggle with her feelings. she remained gloomy and hysterical all day. Rut the climax was reached this evening when, ongoing to her apart ment, I found ber in a terrible state of agitation, which stvnud to increase in my presence. D-ply grieved, I I at plored htr to bo calm, telling her that I would never again allude to the bap tism of the children, and she might at- U-r.d her church ss often as she pleased, only stipulating that neither of us in fluer.ee the children In the matter of re ligion, and that they should be allowed to decido for themselves alwaj s. "Then the whole nefarious plotof the priests to get my wife nack into their toils came out; for amid sulw and tears she told me that the abbe who had allowed her to escape from the convent, was dead, and that when dying, she had confessed her sin to the priest The church here was Informed of the affair, and, because wo are rich and in fluential, they set their agents to work to get back thulrown again, by making my wife, who, like all her countrywo men, is of a very Impressionable nature, believe that the soul of the abbess, for ber sin against the holy church, was wandering around purgatory, and would bo lost for all eternity unless the union of myself and wife was hallowed by the rite of the church. "I expreseed my anger and amaze ment, that my wife could allow herself to be so humbugged; but" deprecating- ly, "I attribute it, DocU r, to her highly sensitive state." "Certaiuly," taid Dr. Wiod, "that had everything to do with it, I am satis fied that had she been in her normal state, these designing priests would not have found her so easy a victim." "I told my wi'e, continued the sena tor, "that If the bou! of the abbots went from purgatory to tho eternal fires of hell, would not encourage bucIi char- lautry; for, I assured her, that it was nothing else. I tried to make her see how impossible it was for human beings like ourselves to know or even judge whether God had doomed or forgiven an immortal soul, but it was all to no purose, so firmly had she become lm bued with tho belief that the abbess was doomed to eternal torment unless I consented to the condition the church imposed. "I reminded my wife that I had once been willing, at the Instigation of no priest, to have our marriage solemnized by the rite of her church, but, satisfied with my assurarce that she was my true and honored wife, she had scorned its sanction. "She replied, 'that she was then so young and so overwhelmed with joy at having gained ber freedom, and blind to everything but her great love for me, that she could not see the enormity of the sin she was committing.' She then pleaded with me to have our marriage sanctioned at this late day; if not for the salvation of the abbess, for her own sake. " 'For I, too, James,' she said, 'will be lost, if the church does not bless out marriage. For, sinful woman as I am, I find I love you too much to sever my life from yours on earth, to we will go to our doom together in the eternal hereafter.' "She arose from her chair as she said the last words, and before I could reach her, she fell to the floor In the awful swoon you found her in." Dr. Wood arose, saying: "I am going to look in on your wife. I will be back presently." He soon returned. Senator Maxwell looked up with anxious inquiry. "Your wife is sleeping quietly," said the doctor, "and in all probability, will continue to sleep till morning, under the influence of the 6edative I gave her." Then, as he resumed his seat, "R seems to me to be a little strange that these zealous priets have let you alone all these years, to pounce down upon you all at once, as It were. It looks as though there might be something back of it, but I am at a loss ,to understand what it can be." Senator Maxwell's faco flushed, and after a few moments ol sllencc,he lifti d his head with a determined air and said: "Yes, Doctor, there is a good deal back cf it. My wife and myself have had the misfortune to attract these priestly schemers fcr their own ag grandizement." Then he told the doctor of the visit of the archbishop of San Francisco to his hotel In Washington, and all the sig nificance of the interview. "My ambition was stronger than my principle of honor," he said, "but thank God, I have corao back to my senses. This political church hoped by getting my wife back in their power, and in full communion with them, and by making meowe my position to their in fluence, to gain a strong foothold in tho United States." Dr. Wood eyed the senator keenly, as he said: "One might swallow a pretty bitter dose to be president of tho United States, and you have already swallowed the biggest portion of yours, why not gulp the rest, and grasp the reward of fered you?" "No;" said Senator Maxwell, emphat ically, "I will never be made president of the United Nta'o by the help of thrsv moles who dug under the vpry founda tion of my how', In my ahwnco. My o me will probably die In oWurlty, but, thank God, the death warrant of the HU-itj of American peoplo will never be signed by me." Dr. Wood sprang from his chair and exlvtulcd bis hand. "I want to clap the hand of a man, be said, "who think more of the na tion's welfare than hit own aggrandize- mint," Sciiaor Maxwt II arose and gave his hand to the doctor, saying: "I deserve little credit for my re fusal, for I think If I had not found my wife In the state she Is, I might have yielded." "I don't think , Sir;" said the doc tor, "something else would haveopcot d your eyes. Why, my dear sir, half the men in the union, placed as you are, would say to their wives, 'Why, yes, my d.ur; bring on your priest and we'll be married over again and spend four years honeymoon In the White House; and after us the deluge.' " Then, in an altered tone, "I don't want to make you more miserable than you are, senator, but your trouble with your wife Is not over yet." "Good God! Doctor, do you think her condition Is really serious?" "tjuito serious," said Dr. Wood, "her mind has been on such a strain for the past few months that ber nervous sys tem is much Impaired. The time of her trial Is drawing near, and unless trie nervous tension can bo in a measure relaxed, I am afraid of the ultimate re sults." A silence of several minutes fell be tween the two men, and then Senator Maxwell said: "What would 'ou advise, Doctor?" "I advise nothing, Sir," said the doc tor, "but the only remedy that can do your wife any possible good outside of the Kindness of nature, lies in your power to administer; and now, with a parting glance at your wife, I shall takts my departure. Good night." Senator Maxwell looked at his watch. It was nearly two o'clock. He quietly entered his wife's room. Martha hud dismissed the maid, and was sitting grim and upright beside the bed. Her brother whispered to her to go to her rest, as he Intended to pass the re mainder of tho night by his wife's bed side. Without a word, Martha, having done what she considered her share of watching, left the room. Senator Maxwell looked at the pale face of his sleeping wife and his thoughts went back to distant sunny S(ain, where he had wooed and won this fair woman, who, for love of him, a stranger from an unknown land, who had suddenly crossed the flowery path of her girlhood, had cast aside mother and kindred and wealth that was her birthright, and placing ber life, while yet in its early morning, in his hands, bad crossed with him the wide ocean, trusting only in his love and honor for snfo guidance, and who tonight hud said: "I love you too much to sever my li'e on ea.-th from yours, so wo will go to our doom together, In the great here after." Senator Maxwell had no desire to sleep, and sitting beside his slumbering wife through the dreary hours which preceded the dawn, his resolve was taken. At six o'clcck she drowsily opened hoi- eyes. Her husband, taking her hand, bent over her. In response to his anxious Inquiry, she twined her arm around his neck and answered languidly "that she was better." Senator Max well slipped his arm under his wife and drew her close to him. "Darling," he whispered, softly, "to morrow you shall awake with that poor little fluttering heart of yours at rest and happy." Then he told her of the decision he had come to, as he watched her while she slept. When she had grown calm from the excitement caused by the sudden relief of the burden which had borne so heavy upon' her mind for so long, her husband summoned her maid and himself sought and obtained a few hours of needed rest. (To bo Continued.) "IN THE CLUTCH OF ROME," Is published In book form, paper cover, and can be bud by sending cents In cash to the Amkhican I'l'Hi.iftnm) Company. England and Leo XIII. The pope's apsstolic letter to the Eng lish people was not called forth by any special interest and will not produce a great effect. It derives a certain im portance, nevertheless, from its appear ance at the present time, since It sig nalizes the existence of a period ln the history cf Christianity. It is one of the products of that period rather than of the events which are giving the time their own coloring. What is meant is that the condition of the 1 torn an Cath olic church in the civilized world today has caused the issuance of this letter, and that the communication would have been sent just the same whether Leo XIII. or somebody else was the occu pant of the papal chair. The motive of sending such a message, one may fairly contend, was sufficient to lead any pope to write it. Consequently, the calm which It breathes, the frater nal and paternal spirit inspiring it, the religious tone which pervades it, all convey nothing novel to the mind, and leave the Roman Catholic church, the heaJ of which ulteied the sentiments contained In It, entirely without the repoi nihility of iipirtlrg an extra ordinary pniwsl. Possibly this may p-r paradoxi cal, but a short examination of the ptlicy of Leo and his predecessors will show the whole affair In its true I'ght If we go back to tho last of the act of Pius IX. destined to weaken the Influ enee of the papacy, which was his vol untary attempt to subdue the Swiss Catholics, the mind comprehends list the condition of the church was when Ieo ascended the throne. He found himself "the prisoner of the Vatican,' without owor In France, somewhat op Hiw'd by the German eiii(cror, but fairly Influential and ottnt In all other quarters of the glotie, except the United States. Ills first plan of campaign, so to Scak, was to accept the practice of methods which his assistants promised for the bettering of the situation. There came a long fight In Germany with Bismarck, which did not end in the victory of the church. A stubborn contest In France compiled the Roman See to conclliwte and accept the repub lic. Ia the meantime all the South American countries deserted the priests, until today not one of them maintains a stute church. Belgium alone of the countries In northern Eu roo, and Spain and Portugal only of those In the south, are now clinging to the Roman Catholic church In any ex clusive manner. Even Austria has shown a tendency to shako off the In fluence of tho priests. No headway has Iwen made In the project for reuniting tho eastern and the western chuiches, and no now country has taken up with the tenets of Rome. In such a situation, what is more natural than the policy which It hits pleased the poj to inaugurate? The first question with him is how to hold together tho old K)wer of the church, or what is left of it, which Is repre sented by church worshlM-rs. Second, he Is compelled to look ahead and se cure new means of ohtalning power for the support of tho popes who are to come after him. That this is not a minor matter may be inferred from tho financial straits which the church Is in. Within a year the chief organ of the papal power at Home has boon forced to undergo an almost fatal re duction of its subsidy. The amount of the Peter's pence collected, as officially reported, last year was greatly below what it was formerly. Now, when for tune Is as unfavorable as that, when, too, the old methods of strengthening the church have conspicuously failed, why should not new methods be trh d? Does anybody believe that any other popo would have bi en able to bring the church Into the enjoyment of happier conditions than those which surround it In these days when L"o XIII. 's reign is drawing to a c!o.n? How would such a ono have accomplished it? How will his successor restore proserous times to the church unit ss ho proceeds to win over converts and not converts from paganism, but from the sects which have fallen away from the holy tee?

The sepa rate schools dispute was reopened this afternoon when the Manitoba legisla ture reassembled to deal with the re medial order issued by the dominion government at Ottawa. Contrary to general expectation, Premier Green way did not take a defiant attitude, but moved that a further recess of the leg islature bo taken till June 13. This motion was opposed by A. F. Martin, leader of the opposition, who demanded the reasons for delaying such an impor tant subject. He alleged that the mem bers of tte government had had ample time to makeup their minds, and should make soma definite announcement of policy. The house at 10 a. ra. took the adjournment rt quested by Mr. Green- way. Rumors as to the causes of the government's action in requesting fur ther delay are many. It is said the government is acting slowly, as it fears, should it reject tho Ottawa demand, it might result In the federal parliament removing educational matters entirely from the control of the legislature. Ottawa, Ont., May 9 Lieut. Gov. Schultz, of Manitoba, was savageiy at tacked in the house today for his re cent action in coming to Ottawa and seeking advice from Dr. Bourinot, the constitutional authority, in reference to the Manitoba school question, the al leged object being to obtain an opinion on which to dismiss the Greenway min istry.
