LONDON, Nov. 5.-The chief authorities
of the church have decided to hold great
International Catholic Congress in Lon
don, with the object of maintaining the
doctrines of Papal infallibility, asserting
the Pope's right to temporal as well as
spiritual power, and the duty Of all Chris
tians to return to the allegiance Of Rome.
1t is stated tn determination is the result
Of direct instructions from the Vatican,
and some Of the highest dignitarieS of the
church will attend the Congress.
htishOp Manning, in speech at West
minister, admitted that his spiritual iR1u-
ence greatly increased since he lost his
tempOralities. If arbitration was ever to
supersede war, the Pope would be the only
possible authorized arbitrator. The
Catholic world, he added, was threat
ened with a controversy on all
DEGREES of the Oecumenical Council.
There was undoubtedly approaching one
of the mightiest contests the religious
world had ever seen. Therefore, Il was
necessary to fearlessly assert, through the
free press of England, the Pope's rights and
his pretensions to worldwide allegiance.

some extreme language, and then, taking a
pin, he picked the nipples of the gun, priB-
ed them with little powder, and started
again. Presently he saw another rabbit,
but both caps snapped again. The rabbit
did not see Smiley, so he put ON more caps,
and then they snapped too. Then Smiley
cleaned out the nipples again, primed them,
and fred the gun off at a fence. Then
the caps snapped again. Smiley became fJI-

that both barrels were empty. Mrs. Smiley,
who is nervous about firearms, had drawn

Of making him angry. If there had been a

have been made to ring with Mr.. Smlley's

bits. He saw one in few moments, and
was about to fire, when be noticed that
there were no caps on his gun. He felt
for one, and to his dismay found that he

ground his teeth and walked home. On
his way there he saw q beast six hundred
rabbits. He has been out hunting every
day since, however, with his gun IN first

solitary rabbit. Smiley is beginning to
think something is wrong in the govern
ment of the universe.
