Two Bodies Found In siberia.

LONDON, January 24.-Some st. Peters.
burg papers state that the bodies OF two
members Of Lieutenant Chipp's party have
been found at Chatau Bay and will pass
through St. Petersburg in February on
their way to New York. Probably the re.
port has tho same origin as the statement
OF the finding OF the two cerpses OF the
members Of the same party which was pub
lished in New on the 9th inst. and dis
credited. ~ -.

Paris, January 4.-The expected crisis
in the French ministry has been TEN.
porarily avcrted. There will be no marked
disruption in the cabinet and modifca.
ton Of the ministry is now almost certain.
A compromise on the differences which
arose in the cabinet on the discussion on
the expulsion bill has been agreed upon.
The terms OF tho compromise are not
known, but General Billot, Minister Of
War, still declines accepting the clauses in
the bill placing the Orleans Princes on the
retired list. The modification is thought
to be on N. Ballou's amendment, decreas-
ing the immediate cashiering OF tho Prin-
ces. In some quarters the breaking up Of
the cabinet is regarded as certain before

ApoRRSrRY bulletin, Just received from

persons using wood for domestic fuel at
39,S75,0 ,07l, consuming 140,5S7,4S0 cords

TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENT.


An Injunction Granted Against the
Peoples Telephone Company.
Boston, January 24.-Judge Gray, OF
the United States Circuit Court, granted
an injunction against the Peoples Tele-
phone Company (Dolbear's patent, in
favor Of the Bell Telephone Company.
The stock Of the latter company jumped
from $500 share at the close yesterday to
S22G to-day.
The point Of the decision is that Bell was
the first inventor who successfully used
the electric current for the transmission Of
articulate sound. The differences OF the
Dolbcar's and Bells plans are not such as
to warrant the former to claim the inven-
tion OF the entire system. Esnora Bells,
invention consists not merely in the form
OF the apparatush he uses, but in the general
process or method in which the apparatus
Is the embodiment. the defendants have,
therefore, infrinsed on Bells patent by
using his general process or method, and
should be restrained by anil injunction
from continuing TO do 30. 't II

Miuers' Difficulties.
ST. LOUIS, January 24.-The leading iron
workers here laugh at the report that tho
Amalgamated Association is hopelessly in
debt, and say the story deserves only to be
laughed at, and that industriously as it is
circulated will not effect the purposes OF
the men ut the Vulcan Works, TO stand out
against the reduction Of wages set forth in
the company's schedule. Mr.. o. L. Gar
rison, Secretary OF the Company, said he
knew nothing about the financial affairs Of
the Association, Il but had heard that the
Pittsburgh Union borrowed freely from the
st. Louis Union. No effort las been made
yet TO get other men in the place OF those
locked out, as it will be several days before
the repairs are done, and the men could
not go to work just now II they were TO
consent to do so. lie says that OF the 1850
men out all are ready to return except the
tonnage men, who number $50. About
100 OF the tonnage men have gone to Ten
nessee, and others will go elsewhere un-
less the dispute is settled soon. Thus far
no men have offered 10 take the places OF
those out, and Mr.. Garrison admitted that
II when the repairs are made the company
cannot get hands, twill lose some valuable
spring orders.
FALL RIVER, January 24.-There is no
change IN the condition Of the strike OF the
iron workers at Somerset. The works
have not started up to-day. The village is
very quiet. Several orders for nails have
been received, and theNcompany, being
unable to meet.them, will transfer them to
other manufacturers unless the strikers
resume work shortly. The employees have
the sympathy Of the laboring classes in
general and are very obstinate. 1t is not
probable that work will be resumed this
week. Several strikers have left the place
on extended visits to friends, while others
remain idly about. The situation OF affairs
Is most discouraging to the manufacturers
Although the best OF feeling exists between
the employers and the strikers, neither
manifest willingness to submit, and it is
probable that new help will be secured.
There Is no indication Of a strike Of the
iron workers here, as the works have been
started up and employees have accepted the
reduction.

whence arise these delectlonS from tue
iaithY The cause Is easily explained. The
child's early Christian education is neglect
ed by his parents. He is sent to school
where his religion is ignored or held up to
ridicule-and ridicule makes towards Of
US. He has no knowledge Of his Cate
chism, which would enable him to detect
the utter groundlessness Of the charges
brought against his faith; and the charges
are so often repeated, that be at last be.
lieves them TO be true. He is ignorant OF
The Mother that gaye him spiritual life.
He despises her whom he SHOULD love, and
goes forth into the world, TO embrace the
first sect which chance or proselytism
throws into his way, or which favors
lis inclinatlons and his temporal interests.
From the foregoing remarks the conclu
sion is forced upon us, that Catholic Paro'
chjal schools must be established and fos.
tered, Il we would preserve the faith OF our
children, Without such schools, parish
Is sooner or later destined to languish and
decay. With the present generation there
is.no danger. But this generation is pass
inr away, soon to be succeeded by another,
and Il no provision Is made for the Christian
culture ot the rising youth, II lsto be feared
that twenty years hence, 1t Will be much
easier 10 find churches for congregation,
Than congregation fer our churches. Our
late venerable predecessor, Archbishop
Bavley, has well remarked that "a Parish
without = school scarcely deserves the
nafne.V
Far be It from US to question the sincerity,
or to underrate those who are the patrons
