act with a view Of securing road to Peoria.

A WONDERFUL LEGACY.-The Davenport
Gazette has an account of lady Of that city
suddenly becoming the heiress of property
in Texas worth at least 100000.
1t seems that man named Mullen sery
ed his country with credit in the war Of
1888 which was to elevate Texas TO repub.
lie, lie was rewarded by grant Of eleven
leagues Of land including a township called
Medina. Certain squatters on the land re.
sisted the right Of MuIlens heirs to eject
them and contested their title. The Judge
Of the supreme court OF the state, Natrous
by name, decided in his favor. Watrous
was occurred of being bribed and was i'm
peachcd in congress-. He obtained the priv.
ilogc of resguinC however and died in
short time ailorwarjS.
The two heirs OF Mullen subsequently
died leaving five children. The case work.
ed its way along and few months ago the
United States district court made the same
decision as Judge Watrous. One of the five
heirs is the Davenport lady. The property
is held to be very valuable, worth at least
100000 SO that the lady can congratulate
herself on succeeding to 100000 by virtue
of an ancestors fighting for the lsne star of
Texas. Her claim has been placed in the
hands Of Davenport lawyer.

As the period approaches for the assembly of the

OF the Catholic Church throughout the worldr The
Pope attaches immense importance TO his Councils

der to secure that end 1t Is essential tnat tne Catno
lie governments OF Europe, and notably France and
Austria, should give some kind OF sanction 10 the

the Bishops OF France and Austria must be present.
not only as members OF the Episcopal body but also
as representatives OF the national churches OF the
dOminiOns in which they mold their Sees On the
other hand none OF the Catholic governments are
disposed to take any step recognizing the au-
thority OF the Papa conclave, unless IL Is IN some
way made worth their while. A telegram from
Rome has contradicted the report that the Marquis
de Bonneville, the Ambassador or France at the
Ponti6cal Court, had made any proposals TO the
Vatican with reference to the coming Council.
Yet 1t Is certain that there has been lately
very active correspondence between Paris and Rome;
and the subJect-matter OF that correspondence mas
been the possibility OF bringing about transitional
arrangement between Italy and the Holy see. ON
the one hand the French government Is extremely
desirous OF Withdrawing its army or occupation
from the Papal States and on the other, Plus Ia Is
very loath to do anything that might lmperil the
moral as well as the national support which ne re-
ceives from France. Under these circumstances the
re-establishment OF the september Convention ~
now regarded probable. The Italian government
would gladly accept any terms which enabled the
French quit the soil OF Italy, and there Is reason
