Tho Beretta and Zucohetta.

EDITOR CRITIC: Will you be kind enough
to explain just what the scarlet "beretta"
and "zucchetta" are, with which Arch
bishop Gibbons was recently invested?
PROTESTANT.
The beretta is square cap with three
corners rising from the crown and hay
lug tassel hanging. 1t was worn
as early as the ninth century, when it
had no corners, but resembled an ordinary
cap. But its pliability making 1t difficult
to place on the head, the shape was changed
to the present one, the three corners being
symbolical Of the Trinity. 1t is Of two
colors, red and black, red being worn by
cardinals, and without tassel and black
by all inferior officers, bishops having a
green lining. The beretta, besides daily
use, can be worn in the sanctuary during
the less solemn portions of the mass. AS
worn by the Greeks, 1t is close fitting and
usually of violet color.
The zucchetta is small closely-titting
skull cap, in shape like a saucer. 1t can be
worn by permission from the Pope during
mass from the beginning to the Preface and
from the end of communion to the com
petion of the service. 1t is OF three colors,
red, violet aud black. Red ia worn by car
diuals, violet by patrarchs, nrchbishops
and bishops and black 10y all other clergy

A nrn1NnHANp HOUSE.

Senator Beck has been speaking out
in meeting again. lie said Yesterday
that he felt humiliated by tho fact that
many Of the appropriations had been
reduced without reference to the pub
lie good, but simply in order that the
House might go to the country and
claim crcatcr ere lit for economy. lie
also criticised the House for its delay
in passing absolutely necessary lcgisla-
tion, entering rs tt does upon new
fiscal year, without the appropriations
required by law having been male
Both of Mr.. Beck criticisms are well
made.
The House in many cases have cut
down and even lelt out appropriations
Of money lsi,n the expectation that the
Senup would make it all right. Aud
in other cases the House knows well
enough that its failure to grant less
than the sum of money necessary for
any specific purpose will, il the Senate
does not increase the figures sent over
to them, be followed at the next session
of Congress by deficiency bills. The
general policy which 1t pursues In re-
gard to appropriations is not only mar
row. minded, but it increases work.
The little deficiency" the special de-
ficiency" and the general deficiency"
bills take up proportionatcly, because
of the necessary investigation that goes
with them, more time than the regular
appropriation bills. This could be
avoided by treating the estimates of the
heads Of departments generously and
not as If those officials sat up nights to
discover ways and means by which TO

led any great results in the direc-

done so, while 1t might be put

nROTuERLY LOVE.
A FABLE, by nno. JOEL BENTON


Tie Rabbi Judah so the scrlbes relate,
About those things which each considered
best
TO bring TO earth immunity and rest.
Then said the one requested to begin.
REST comes from wealth, II there be peace

The second said; "It springs from honest
And having all men magnify your name"
The third said Rest Is being truly great,
Coupled with power to rule some mighty
The fourth said: "such rest as we presage
Reach men only IN EXTREMIST age,
When wealth and power and fare unite
to 90
To children and unto their children now."
The fifth said; IAN these various things are
yain
Rest comes to those who all the law main
tain
Then said the Rabbi Judah grave and old,
The talest of the group with him enrolled;
You all speak wisely, but no rest Is deep
To him who the traditions fail to keep"
Now spake a far'haired boy up from the
A hoy of twelve-who heard these words re-
pass,
And dropped the lilies from his slender
hands:
NAY, father; none among you understands.
True rest he only finds who eyermOre
Looks not behind, but to the things before;
Who, soorning fame and power and home
and pelf,
Loyeth his Brother as he loves himself.r

An FxyIanatton wanted.

The Rev. DR.. Brown was recently called
upon to marry an out-of-town couple at
the Guild house. In the cours. Of the
Episcopal service the bridegroom is re-
quired 10 use the expression "plight my
troth." The husband expectant followed
the good rector of St. Paul's through the
service without hesitation until these words
were reached, when he sharply inquired:
"Wbat's that ~
DIR. Brown was somewhat nonplussed by
the unexpected question, but, adapting
himself TO the eXigency, explained that
troth means fealty or fidelity.
"Oh, vel" said the cautious candidate
for conJugal honors, "if that's all, plight

A well-known Bostonan was trying a

that he pulled pretty hard, requiring con-

THE srANNARD PENSION.

There is this about the pension Of
90 month which the Senate has
tied to the widow of the late George
Stannard. If, in the opinion of Con
ess, 1t Is such an exceptional case Of
psit as to warrant such an appropri-
ion without doing injustice % thou-
nds of other pensioners g pension
aimants-in other wordsif 1t is voted
good faith and With an honest, con-
tent regard for precedents, and can
be made to appear in this light to the
President, beshould Of course approve
it and doubtless would do so.
If, upon the other hand, the bill has
been passed in a reckless spirit of
bravado, without reference to the euui-
ties Of the question and with "dare.
you-to-veto-it' sort of challenge to the
President, the latter should have no
hesitation in vetoing 1t so quick as to
make the Senate's head SWIM and, if
possible, with such thunderous voice
Of disapprobation as to shake the
foundations of the Capitol.
Then let Congress make "test
case" of it If it has the courage, or
rather the effrontery, to do it.
Nobody questions the gallantry of
General Stannard's services or the
propriety of voting his widow such n
pension as she is fairly entitled to and
as is being paid in similar instances;
but If Senators or Representative are
simply fooling with the matter in order
to catch the President in a trap, they
had better be very careful how they
spring it and keep their own feet dill
gently scarce Old soldiers can see
through such performance quite as
well as other people OF all
others, the veterans least approve
of odious determinations in the
distribution of pensions, and if any
