will divide with you. Here is money
to pay medicine and to pay nurses
to wait on the sick. Many thousa nds
of dollars have been poured into the

FRIDAY afternoon, of last week.
the engine with a train OF eleven
cars crossed the new railroad bridge
on The Rogersvill and Jefferson
Railroad. 1t was understood in the
village during the day that the train
was coming aud the en- tire popula-
ton were on the look out. A large
number of young men and boys
walked out to the river to see it
come over. The elder men, the Ia
dies and girls kept their ears alert
for the sound of the whistle. At sun
down the welcome sound was heard,
and then we all knew Maj. Gates
work had proven to be we'll done
and that the bridge had been safely
passed. Nearly the entire pOpula-
tion had gathered at the depot
men, women and children. The train
came down slowly with three coal
cars in front, these cars literally
covered with boys, all yelling as
loud as their lungs would let them
Tom Brownlow standing at the front
end Of the front car with his hat in
his hand yelling like the other little
boys. When the engine reached the
depot the entire population well
coined her with shout-the ladies
waving handkerchief and some of
them shouting too. President Will
son proposed ''three cheers for Har-
~ Akin" and they were given with
a hearty will.
When the train passed over the
first trip Maj. Gates and two of his
Workmen were on the engine. He
(Gates) had been urged to send the
train over without any one on it, but
he said he had confidence in his work
and was not afraid. The safe pass
age OF the heavy engine proved that
his judgement was correct.
The truth is, we have never seen
the people of Rogersville more thor
oughly happy over any event than
they were on Friday evening, and
it was something over which they
might well rejoice, for it meant in
creased prosperity for all the peo-
pie. Harry Akin has the thanks of
everybody here for the energy and
pluck he has displayed in pushing
the work. He is decidedly a popu-
lar man with our people, and de-
serves the popularity he enjoys.

From detailed account Of the present dis.
tribution OF the Russian forctS, given In
usually well informed German paper, it ap-
pears that Russia has still intact in the inte-
rior OF the country, and quite Independently
OF any garrison troops, thirteen divisions OF
infantry, five Divisions Of cavalry, three bri-
gades Of rifles and two brigadrs OF sappers,
fantry, 1900 cavalry and 100 field d-pieces.
In addition, four reserve divisions are In
process of formation, and 120 local battalions
are being Modified, tn occupy the Polish
provinces OF the empire. The army ON the
Balkan peninsula comprised at the time when
the armistice was agreed upon-excIusive {
siege artillery, tbs artillery parks, the train,
the administrative services, detaehrnents OF
sailors, etc.-25 divisions Of infantry, with
1900 field gun 8 brigades of rifies; is divi-
sions OF cavalry, with 300 horse artillery guns;
or altogether 324 battalions, 40 squadrons
and 400 field pieces. Assuming the actual
strength Of each Of the above units to average
tWo-thirds OF It's prescribed war establish
ment, the aggregate effective force of this
army would amount to 260, 900 infantry, 90 900
horses and 400 guns.
In the Caucasus there were at the same
time two divisions of infantry, comprising
thirty two battalions and the Kuban and the

horses and 156 guns; and, finally, in Arne-
MIA there were eight divisions Of grenadierS

GERMANY AND THE CATHOLICS.
4 Proposed Modification of the Falck
Church Laws.

dispatch from Berlin foreshadows an un-
derstanding between the German government
and the Vatican, although the exact nature Of
the understanding Is not defined. By the
German ecclesiastical legislation of the past
few years the Roman Catholic Church In the
empire has been brought into complete SUBJ
lection to the government. The design OF
the Falck laws, and subsequent legislation,
was to prevent the Pope from antagonizing
the civil power in Germany through the
prelates. The Berlin Ecclesiastical Court
has, under the authority Of these laws. de-
posed such preIates as Forester, Prince
Bishop OF Breslau; Ledochowski, Archbishop
Of Posen (sinee made Cardinal), and Mar
were unnecessarily severe, were executed
with great aigor, until it, looked as if there
would not be. a Roman Catholic prelate left in
the Empire. Last year, however, the extreme
measures began to grow unpopular. even with
Protestants, who did not know how soon
Bismarck's pressure to make the civil power
supreme might be brought to bear upon
them. The expulsion Of Forester was
not a popular measure anywhere in Ger
many. He was friend Of the Emperor, and
quite favorite at the court, but Bismarck
wanted to make an example Of him and show
the country that it must side with him, even
with the Vatican. 1t is probable that some of
the asperitIes of the ecclesiastical laws will be
removed. One law takes away from the
Church the right to hold or use property in
any form, whether for worship or charities.
The suppression OF the religious orders in
Prussia was severe blow to the Vatican, but
it is probable the new Pope will not bring that
subject up IL the Latin Church is allowed an
equal chance With the other churches,
