THE AMERICAN IRELAND A HERETIC TalltAa NU U DUlik HU Can la fwliUrs. . Rons No. 11 "Hie tUtemeBl cir culated In the I'nlusl Sutea that Iho opo bM decided to Pfison ArehbUhop Ireland from the dlooeM ot St. Paul It vatruc; but It U itated by thoMi quail led to know, that Archbishop Ireland ha lost the freakr part of the former ooalJeratloo in which he a beld at the Vatican, and the ecure be pursued In the late elcton in the United States baa tncreatcd thli dUfavor. 'St Tad, Minn., No. ll.-When ArehbUhop Ireland'! attention oat called today to tha publihd rumor that bit recent utterance were dUap prortd at Rome and that be would bo removed from the ice cf St. Paul, ha refused to dignify the rumor by male to; a suterooot In regard to it. Philadelphia, Pa., Not. 11. From eminent ecclesiastical authorities bar ing sources of official information, It ii learned that the attention of Rome ha boon called in an indirect manner to a aertnon delivered by Archbishop Ire land at Washington on the occasion of the oonKcratlon of Ulihop O'Gorman. In this lormcn the archbishop re ferred to the blshopt aa the main strength of tho Catholic church. Ai the Jesuit and other religion order have do bishops, the expression was oonstrucd to be a reflection on them. It 1 not known that the sermon was officially communicated to Home, but It certainly reached there, and hns been the subject of recent adverse comment in the ClvllU Catollca, tho organ of Jesuit at Rome. At tho time of Archbishop Ireland's vlblt to Home on the Faribault school question, the Jesuit Influence was di rected against the views he represented. From the rtcent publicity at Rome given to the Ireland sermon, It Is the judgment of those la a position to un derstand the facta that this is the basis for the reports from Rome that Arch bishop Ireland will be summoned there and removed. It is believed that the popes decision will be averse to those seeking Ire land's removal. Further thhn this there has been nothing from Rome to Indicate the displeasure of the pope and others In authority.'1 The archbishop's advocacy of McKin ley's election has not figured In the matter. Washington, D. 0., Nov. 12. The publication this morning of a cabled statement to the effect that Cardinal SatolU bas presented a report to the pope, lo which be savagely criticise Archbishop Ireland acd Bishop Keane, la the subject of some-interesting ex change of views among the Catholic clergy here. ' 1 "The trouble with Cardinal Satolli," aid one clergyman, "was that he did not understand the American mind and the American church. There is a great difference between methods here and In Europe. SatolU could not under stand our way of speaking out our minds. We are cot as great diplomats M they are iu Europe, and he did not appreciate this. "Archbishop Ireland Is all right, CAnhnal Satolli would have no grounds on which to call him the 'apostle of heresy.1 There is nothing heretical about htm. I plaoe no confidence In the cable message because I know there are no grounds for It. "This message is, like others, false on its face. I usually discredit all mes sages from Rome coming through the press. The correspondents talk about matters of which they know nothihg, Only a few weeks ago they sent out the news that a certain congregation in Rome had chosen a pastor. Here In Washington we knew this was not true, tor it was In vacation time, and such a obolce could not be made. "The rumor that Cardinal Satolli has made such a report you can brand as false. There is nothing in it at all." Another clergyman, commenting on the report, said: ' "It Is true there are two schools of thought at the university, but on fund amental principles both schools agree. It Is only In details that there is a dif ference. There is no heresy about it at all. "These schools disagree on the beet plan of presenting the Catholio church to the age. One believes In winning the age by love and charity; the other believes in taking the age by the collar and draggieg it in. That is all. There is no heresy anywhere. "Cardinal Satolli may believe in the latter method. I dont know. Any how, it is well known that be found fault with Bishop Eeane's methods, and the bishop believes in love and charity. There may be some other re movals before long at the university, but if so, they will all be along this line." SCHOOL SETTLEMENT. The Braadon Committee Receive the An nouncement of the Settlement. Brandon, Nov. 13. The committee appointed to confer in reference to the school settlement met last evening In Eon. Mr. Sifton's office, when the set tlement was laid before them. After a number had expressed themselves, the following resolutions were carried unanimously: First, That the terms of settlement between I ha government of Canada and the provincial government of Manitoba, ot the Manitoba school question a coa United la the memorandum presented and explained by the lion. Clifton Slf Urn, is hereby approved by thlsooni' mlttae a representing the convention of Liberals and McCarthyltes of the dominion electoral division of Brandon We believe it will tffwet a settU menl of the difficulty in a manner highly satisfactory to the people of Manitoba. Second, That the committee of Lib erals and McCarthyltes desire to place on record their high appreciation o( the character and ability of the Hon. Clifford Slflon, and hereby request him to accept the nomination tendered htm at Souri on the 20lh of October lat, a a candidate for the representation of Brandon electoral district in the bouse of commons at O'.tawa. As the meet ing wss strictly confidential nothing could be obtained In regard to the terms of settlement, which will be an nounced some time next week, after Hon. Mr. Sifton is sworn In as minister. The new minister leaves for Ottawa la the morning to be sworn in, after which he returns again to Brandon. Aoonvention of tho Liberals of North Brandon will be held shortly to nom inate a candidate for the local home, caused by the vacancy. About tho government building it eoetnt to be the gcnoral Impression that nothing will bo given out regard ing the school settlement until well on Into next week. lion. Mr, Sifton, it Is thought, likely will go to Ottawa, and shortly after his arrival there the an nouncement will be made. The other announcements regarding Mr. Sifton' resignation as attorney general and ap pointment as the minister ot the in terior, and the date of the Brandon f ltH'tlon are, it is thought, likely tt fol low soon after. It is understood that Premier Green- way contemplates going to Ottawa In the course cf a month to confer with tho dominion government on immlgra tlon matter in order that dominion and provincial governments may act together in the matter. Nu us as Witnesses. A case Illustrating the subjection of a rcllgleuie to her ecclesiastical su perior occurred recently In Melbourne. The lady superioress ot the Oaklelgh convent was subpo naed to give evi dence la the case ot Fearon vs. Fearon, tot down for hearing in the county court, but did not attend. Mr. KI1- patrick, who appeared for the defend ant, stated that this lady was a ma terial wltnets, and that the subpoena bad been duly served upon her. She stated positively that she would not at tend the court without the permission ot Archbishop Carr. If his honor would express his opinion that she should attend, the archbishop would no doubt give bis permission. Judge Gaunt said she ought to attend, and that she was liable to an action tor cot tempt of court for non-attendance. The case was then adjourned till Monday, On the Monday referred to, the lady attended the court and gave her evi dence, which related to A Certain con versation wbicb took place in her pres ence at the convent between a husband and wife, the latter being an invalid boarder at the establishment. It is a matter of Interesting specula tion as to what would have happened If Archbishop Carr had been away from the colony, or himself unwilling tint the lady superior should give the re quired evidence. Are Roman Catho lio rellgieuses taught that before they may give evidence demanded of them by a court of law they must first obtain permission of some ecclesiastical func tionary? The judge spoke plainly hen he said that the lady was liable for an action of contempt for disobey ing the aabropoa; and a person con victed ot this offence is usually pun ished with imprisonment. A mandate of the court bas to be obeyed whether the person concerned be prince, priest or peasant. Victoria Standard. Bat One. The Roman Catholics claim that one halt of the soldiers who fought on the American side during the revolutionary war were Irish Romanists, They prob ably base thisx claim' on the fact that of the desertions from Washington's army when he was forced our of Phil adelphia and during the encampment at Valley Forge, one-half were of that kind. This is generally the way the Pope's Irish have shown their patriot ism. Ot the twenty-nine best known generals of the revolutionary war, but one. General Moylan was a Roman Catholic. Since 1775 the United States army has had fifteen general com manders; of this number but one, Gen eral Sheridan, was a Romanist American Guardian.

A rumor wi through Austria that (he Emperor Francis Joseph Intends to pay a visit to the queen ot England in ths present mouth, says the New York Journal. It Is more than probable that this rumor w ill not be realized, at least not at this epoch, for the month of Au gust Is ths only lime In the year when the emperor Is able to enjoy a quiet family life. At lat hi, a small, beauti fully situated watering place In the Salnkammergut, the emperor and the empress of Austria poaaeas a pretty villa. It was at Ut-hl that tbey first met, he a young emperor of soma 20 years, she a sweet, fair girl ot 16 sum mers; ever since they come to lschl as to a home that bas all the remem brances of the happiest days of their lives. It is there In the quiet country bouse that they love to gather their children and their grandchildren around them. Hut this year there is but little peace for the emperor. Royal visits, audiences, councils with the ministers, are a I'ordre de jour and the attention of Europe turns to the little Alplue town on the river Traun, where the emperor of Austria is working. We do not want to carry owls to Athens, therefore we need not say that the em peror Is the busiest worker of his coun try nor that he Is the very best soldier In his army, nor need we speak ot his deep sense of duty, but we do want to speak of the kindly, fatherly monarch. If the emperor one day really goes to England, then he goes as a friend to ths queen and to the nation and not as the bearer of a political or diplomatic plan; not only as the ever-courteous sovereign but as a warm hearted human being. The emperor Is adored by hla people and for a good reason. There Is not an Austrian living who Is not ready to believe that If It depended only on the good will of the sovereign there would be prosperity In tha vast states of Austria. Hut alas! there are misfortune and misery enough left, tears and cries of anguish which do not reach the emperor's ear. Alas! For If It could be otherwise, then, Indeed, the Austrlans would be a happy people, for none can bo kindlier than this im perial grandfather. FRENCH AUCTIONS. Lighting a Candle When Anything Is rut I p for Halo. The French Uiode of conducting auc tions is rather curious. In sales of im portance the affair is placed In the hands of a notary, who, tor the time be ing, becomes an autloneer. The auc tioneer is provided with a small number of wax tapers, each capable of burning about five minutes. As soon as a bid m made one of these tapers is placed In full view of the interested parties, and lighted. If, befjre It expires, anotbe? bid Is offered. It Is Immediately extin guished, and a fresh taper placed in lis stead, and so on until one flickers and dies out Itself, when the last' bid be comes irrevocable. This simple plan prevents all contention among rival bid ders and affords a reasonable time for reflection before making a higher offer than the one preceding. By this means. too, the auctioneer is prevented from ex ercising undue influence upon the bid ders, or hastily accepting the bid ot n favorite. i -i ; A Motornian's Superstition. "A motorman will allow his car to run over a dog without any compunc tions, but when it comes to a cat on the track it brings out what little supersti tion there may be in the man, and most of the motormen have a little," said a conductor. The car had come to a sud den Gtop, and all the passengers who had noticed a little kitten in front o' the car stood up and looked back to see if its mangled remains were on tho track. "Why, I have known my motor man to run his car back half a square at night time to see If be had killed a cat," said the conductor. "The heatllifcb: on the car seems to attract them aftei dark, and they will stand In front of an approaching car and their eye ; gleaming like balls of fire, they seem to make no effort to get out of the way and disappear from the niotorman's viev: under the end of the car, leaving him In doubt as to whether he had kilie.l them or not. 1 guess when they ge; out of the range of the headlight the realize their position and scurry out oJ the way. Columbus Dispatch. Lutherans In Amerlra. The growth of the Lutheran church in this country during the last tew years has been phenomenal, especially in the states of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Idaho, North and South Dakota, Washington, Oregon and Montana. It has been said, indeed, tttat "ever fourth person one meets between Chicago and Seattle is by birth or baptism a Lutheran." Re cent statistics show that in the eight states named out of a total communi cant membership which Includes all de nominations, Protestant and Roman Catholic, numbering 1,419,895, the Pro testant bodies have a total of 766,213, and of this number 352,196 are claimed by the Lutherans. The census xf 1S90 proved that more than one-half of the Lutheran strength in ministers and members lies west ot Chicago. Accord ing to that census the aggregates tot the entire country were as follows, but, of course, the figures are now much larger; Ministers 4,591, organizations 8,595, church edifices 6,701, seating ca pacity 2,205,635, value of church proper ty $35,060,354, communicants 1,231,0712. Divorced ad Remarried. James R. Scott ot Rush county, In diana, and his wife, Harriet, have taken a fresh start in lite. They are both htore than sixty years old. and were marled some forty years ago. But they got at outs somehow, and a few months ago were divorced. Recently they were remarried. Bat U !$ sot k.

Does the Work of the $100 Machines.. Heretofore the great cost of typewriters has prevented many people from purchasing a machine. A Ptrfect Typewriter at a low Prica has been a crylns; necessity. We are happy to announce that In the Odell Typewriter we are able to furnish you a perfect machln In every particular at the remarkably low price of $15.00 and $20.00 For a Single Case. For a Double Case.. You can learn to opera's the Odell In ten minutes, and the benlnner becomes an ex pert In ten days' practice, whereas a long course at the business college is necessary to master the MOO nmchlnes. Some writing machines have rubber type: our type is metal, will not wear out. and prints clearer than any of-er tyiewrltr. The strength, durability and finish of the uaen is unsurpassed, for manifolding It has no superior. For speed it. holds its own with any writing machine made, no matter wbat the cost. THE LARGE DEMAND. That we are h vine an enorrous sale for the Odell Is attributed to the fact that we have no coir petition. It belnz the onlv low- priced and practical machine on the market; $H5 and $100 typewriters are things of the past. They, like bleb-priced sawing ma chines, have had their day. No Intelligent business or professional man Is going to pay 1100 for a typewriter when the Odell, costing four-fifths less, will do better work than any higlv-priced machine. Neatness and speed Is what the business men of today want, and there Is now no excute for anybody to be without a typewriter, either In nls office or bis home. Tbe Odell cornea within the reach of all, and it can be duly said that 'it fills a long felt wait." We are meeting the de mands of the people with a typewriter that has no equal.
