.. . i ij - Car Arsa. This prospective war has revealed another tact. The Clan na Gael has, transpires, la the United States 100,000 well equipped and well drilled Irishmen to offer to the president la case of war with England. The president ot this secret organization has made a formal offer of this ne and generally unknown military power, This Is all very patriotic and seem' lnglj kind; but it is to be lamented that 100,000 men of a single nationality can secretly tra'n and arm and be fully equipped for war In a country that has only 25,000 soldiers of Its own! Lest men should bs startled by this offer, it was anticipated by a few days In an Associated Press announcement that there was la existence such a military force. It was declared to be for help to the government In some sudden emergency; and also hinted that it was ultimately for the emancipation of Ire land, if clrcumstanoes would ever per mit Since those reports I have looked la vain in the newspapers of the day for criticisms on this new military power. Can it be possible that no one sees reason for fear in the fact? Or are newspapers afraid to discuss the situa tion? While such things are allowed according to the Constitution of the United States (not the original draft, Dut an amendment), yet 1 cannot see any advantage, and I can perceive much possible disadvantage and posl tive evil. Just imagine the situation! Suppose our citizens of different nation' alltles should go off by themselves and secretly learn the art of war and pro cure its accessories. Suppose we have within the territory of this land a big Irish army, a bigger German army, large Italian army, a Scandinavian in addition to our military force, our little standing army, residing In our country. Would not that be a good in traduction to Pandemonium? Do I suppose the improbable? If one secret society takes that method of making Itself strong, will not the others, or some of them, follow suit in self defense? If one race concentrates its force and multiplies its power, will not another race, driven by fear of exter mination, resort to similar means? What an explosion may we not expect with such a train of combustibles laid in armed campi of alien citizens down in the depths of mystery? But think of amalgamating these different races and Americanizing them with such actions on their part! It is a manifest Impossibility. Without any prejudice against any class of our citizens, gen tlemen, do you not think that amend ment to theConstttution ought to be amended? Btv. H. J, Hofemayer in The Charge. Bad a Large Crowd. The musical and literary entertain ment given by Abraham Lincoln L. O L. No. 81, at Fasking's Hall, 8012 Ar cher avenue, Chicago, Monday ev ing, January 13, was a grand success. The following program was rendered Address by chairman; piano solo, Mrs. Stuart Kerr: trio, Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Short and Miss Short. Address, Rev. E. B. Hubbell. Heading, Mrs. Harry Lucas; duet, Miss Hlcken and Will Seabrook. Address, A. McFarlane (chaplain of the lodge). Duet, Mrs. Short and Miss Short; recitation, Mrs, Fred Hudson. Intermission.

Piano song, by Kentucky friends; song, C. McKenzie. "America," sung by the audience. Papal Wealth in Quebec. It is estimated that the revenues and wealth of the Roman Catholic church in Quebec in 1888, from 200,000 families, amounted to the enormous sum of 18, 000,000 for the exclusive ends of their wdrship, including the maintenance of 900 parishes at an average of $8,000 each. She owns 000 churches, valued at 13,700,000; 900 parsonages, besides the palaces of the cardinal, arohbish ps and bishops; twelve seminaries, worth 8600,000; seventeen classical col leges, worth 1850,000; 269 boarding schools and academies, $6,000,000; 800 convents. $4,000,000: sixty-eight hos pitals and asylums, $4,000,000; total, $61,000,000. As to lands, shops, houses and invested capital, it is impossible to reach absolute certainty. Some ecclesi astical orders are immensely rich. Ro man Catholics declare that the Sulplc ians are richer than the bank of Mon treal, the most powerful institution in America. The Jesuits in Germany. The Centre party of the German reichstag, who number nearly one hun dred and are mostly Roman Catholics, have decided to agitate this winter for a repeal of the celebrated laws against the Jesuits. Their action will be sure to evoke stormy scenes. During the session of 1893-94 the reichstag passed a resolution against the special law which banishes Jesuits from Germany, but the government took no part In the proceedings, and the resolution re mained a dead letter. It is believed that the government will not give heed to the reichstag unless it is obliged to do so by stress of circumstances; that is to say, unless it is compelled to pur chase the votes of the Centre against the other parties by promising the re peal of the obnoxious laws. We trust that the German nation will not repeal the laws against an order which is the deadly foe of every Protestant nation.
