OBJECT OF THE LOAN.

During the crisis which followed the war Of
secession, and which weighed so heavily on the
Diocese of New Orleans assumed liabilities
which they have determined TO liquidate. In
the past year better state Of affairs doomed up
Improvement will increase as the rate OF inteTs
est claimed by its creditors Is lessened.
The conventional rate, In Louisiana, Is too
high for & religious society the revenues of
which. though entirely secure. are nevertheless
limited. for, such society cannot look for
eventual profits in contingent undertakings or
in speeulations altogether inconsistent with It's
mission OF benevolence and charity.
Therefore 1t Is. not with view OF creating O
new debt that this loan Is negotiated but In or
der to unity and consolidate anterior liabilities
and obtain their gradual and regular extfne-
Diocese, and without endangering the church
property. although affecting it. Such ID the
plan positively approved by his Holiness Plus
TX and unanimously adopted by the Board OF
Administrators Of the Roman Catholic Church
Of the Diocese of New Orleans.

A Little Anlrennrny.

Neptune the most remote of the planets in
the solar system, Is about 2,700,000,000 miles
from the sun. 1t Is supposed that Mercury
has mountains higher than our Himalayas,
and volcanoes in a state Of activity. Out of
all the myriad lights In the heavens the earth
is only visible to the moon, Mars, Mercury
and Venus. The earth Is 149 times smaller
than Saturn and its main distance from us is
over 81 100000 miles. Uranus can never see
us at all, as it is 1,753,060000 miles from the
sun. The temperature in Mercury Is sup
posed to be seven times hotter than our tor
rid zone; therefore lift is inhabited, it must be
by people very differently constituted from
ourselves. 1t Is believed that Venus has an
atmosphere much like ours, and mountain
peaks five or six times higher than the Tene-
rife, their sides bright with flowers and birds
of brilliant plumage. The moon never leaves
our globe; therefore 1t is called our satellite
Though to us it appears larger than the stars.
it Is really smaller than any Of them, but
much nearer to us. Astronomers have calcu-
lated that the mountains and extinct volca-
noes in the moon are much higher than any
on our earth. If there were any one on the
moon to see it, the earth would appear mag
niticent ball. The planets and sun would move
behind it in brilliant succession. Our globe
appears to Mars as the morning and evening
star,

SUMMARY.

From what precedes 1t follows
That the loan is negotiated With the sole
object of lIuuidating all former debts.
That 1t represents the liabilities Of the S6~
ciety of the Roman Catholic Church" which ara
duced interest
That It is secured by special mortgage ca
properties worth five times as much az the
amount borrowed, and therefore amply sufff-
cient to guarantee both the payment OF interest
and the redemption Of the capital.
Consequently the Mortgage Bonds OF the DIO-
reese Of New Orleans constitute first class fn-

DROWNING A PAINLESS DEATH.
DIR. Tracy's Researches and Conclusions
ON tine SuhJect-Advice to the
khtpwrecked.

ON the suhJect-Advice to the
shipwreCIxed.
DIR. Roger s. Tracy takes the ground in the
Popular Science Monthly that drowning is a
paratively painless form of death. He
iustffies his position by adducing the state
ments Of persons who have come SO near
drowning that they are taken out of the water
unconscious. According to him, they all say
that they had no feeling Of pain whatever.
Here Is the common experience: Il remember
falling into the water; 1t was dreadfully cold;
/ felt my clothes clinging about me and ham
pertng my movements, and as | rose to the
surface gasped for breath. My mouth was
filled with water, and / sank again; | was
chilled through and through, and then sort
of delirium came over me, and there was @
ringing In my ears. remember nothing
more"
Moreover, anybody who has come near
drowning is well aware that the stories about
the mans seeing his whole life In a momen-
tary vision before he lapses into unconscious
ness are mere fictions. AS DR.. Tracy says,
1.-THE chances are three out OF four that
person who falls into the water and
browns will die a painless death, because
fright alone kills many people, and they
go to the bottom like a plummet; but
In the majority of cases death Is caused by
syneope and apoplexy. "Women are very
apt to faint, and as they sink beneath the
surface, and respiration still goes on invol-
gain consciousness" DR.. Tracy thinks the
entrance of water into the lungs has q great
deal to do with the painlessness OF drowning.
It produces unconsciousnes, and suffocation
at once ensues. IL man is an expert swim
mer he dies harder than one who does not
know how TO swim at all; yet probably even
In this case the agony Is short His suffer
ing Is chiefly mental, but he also "expe-
riences the additional discomfOrts OF ex-
haustion, cold and hunger" while he is try
ing to fight against death.
About half the people who drown die by
syaeope and asphyxla while !. UNCONSCIOUS I,eo s
easily by congestive apoplexy. and the deaths
of all of them are painless. DR.. Tracy recon-
mends to those who are inevitably doomed TO
death by drowning-as, for instance, ship
wrecked persons In an angry sea-to suck
water into the lungs by o powerful inspira-
ton as soon as they are beneath the surface.
Thus they will speedily bring about uncon-
seriousness. and sink to the bottom like lead
But the instinct of life is too strong and men
are more likely to fight against death than to
invite il.
