An ArithIneticai Puzzle.

There were three boys engaged in selling
apples. Two of them had thirty apples
each and the third had sixty apples, or ex-
actly as many as the other two put to-
gether. The first boy sold his apples at
two for one cent, and therefore took In ft-
teen cents. The second sold his apples
at three for one cent, and therefore took In
ten cents The two together took in TWEEN
ty-fye cents. But the third boy sold his
sixty apples at Ave for two cents, and
therefore took in only twenty-four cents
How can this be accounted for, To sell
five apples for two cents ought to bring in
as much as to sell two Of them for one
cent, and the other three for another cent,
but II seems that 1t does not, IL different
people own the two apples aud the three.

VATICAN AND oUIRINAL.

The contention between the Vatican
and the Quirinal in Italy involves the
supremacy of the State, as charged
with the civil liberties and political
rights of its citizens. the enactment
and administration of the laws, the
raising and disbursement of the reve-
nues, the protection of life and prop
erty and the maintenance of the public
peace.
In such a contest the Church having
jurisdiction only over the spiritual
welfare of its people, must fail.
1t is to be wondered at that the wis.
dom of the Church, surprisingly lu-
minous and profound Us ii is in many
things, should stumble upon 50 plain
point as this.
The Jesuits are said to excel all
other religious societies, not only in
the perfection of their organization,
but in learning and ability; but they
certainly fall short of profiting by the
lessons of experience IL they hope to
exercise n power in temporal affairs
superior to that of the civil authorities
or pursue policy in any way ontagon-
istic to that OF the government under
which they live.
They must clearly see in the or Ter
for their expulsion from Italy how
foolish was their demand upon the
Pope for the restoration of privileges
incompatible with the interests of the
State, and how vain it is to stand in
the way of statutes sanctioned by the
king and decreed by the people. There
can be but one determination of such
an issue-the absolute disassociation of
Church and State.
The world is not revolving back
wards.
The Roman Catholic church, with
all Its majesty and strength, with all its
antiquity and influence, with all its
piety and learning and boundlessness
of zeal, must still keep in line with the
progressive ton lencies Of the age, or 1t
cannot hold its ground. In the lexicon
OF popular liberty, reactionary prin-
ciples as applied to religion or politics,
find no place, nor Is there any church
of which the weapons are so mighty oil
the machinery so ingenious that 1t can
permanently occupy a country, to the
laws whereof 1t does not accord the
same unqucstioning obedience that /:
required of the humblest citizen.

School Books Free of Charge.

EDITOR CRITIC: l notice in your issue OF
the 18th 'Gath's" plaintive story of the
mother who says she cannot send her child
to our public schools because she Is too
poor to buy the necessary books, and his
comments thereon. The only trouble with
the statement is that IL has no foundation
in fact. AS long ago as 1866, and don't
know how much earlier, the rules adopted
by the School Board contained the follow
ing "And the Board of Trustees are
hereby authorized TO cause the necessary
books and stationary to be furnished free Of
Of tie public schools of This city.n That
rule, slightly modified in words, but the
same In substance, has existed ever since,
and is in force still. w. G. DODGE.

"HAvE YOU SEEN sAM9"

A movement has been organized in
California for the resuscitation of
Knownothingism, with the anti
Catholic feature left out, and State
convention of the new party, to be
known as the American party, has been
called to meet at Fresno City, Septem-
ber 2S. 1t starts out with number Of
peremptory demands, one of which is
that "no person not in sympathy with
our Government shall ever be permit
tedto immigratc to the United States"
Another is that no alien, whether resi-
dent or nonresident, shall be allowed
to own real estate in this country; still
another, that the naturalization laws
shall be Internationally repealed"
If we correctly understand this plat.
form, 1t erects tolerably eirectual
barrier against all foreign immigration,
without regard TO nationality, and
throws the country upon its own ma
tive resources for the future increase
Of the census. Very few foreigners
would care to come here to live, no
matter how warmly they sympathized
with our form of Government, If in.
hibited from holding real estate and
exercising the elective franchise. In
fact, with these privileges denied, there
would be little or nothing left in re-
publican institutions to sympathize
with, and as q consequence the tide of
immigration would be diverted to
British America on the north, and
Mexico and Central America on the
south, where the full rights of citizen
ship could be enjoyed.
The American party, we fear, is des-
tined to "die a-borning." The time to
close our ports to immigration from
abroad and set up q policy of exclu-
sive Native -Americanism IL ever there
were time when such q policy could
haye been wisely adopted, has long
since passed The mischiefs which
thirty odd years ago, we were tolt
would be entailed upon the public wei
fare unless the influx Of foreigner
was stopped, or at least, the conditions
of their citizenship radically modified
have, to some extent, been demon
strated; but they have been 80 far out
weighed by many accruing advantage
from this source, that bill introduces
in Congress to carry out the principle
of the California Knownothings woul
not receive solitary vote.
Foreign immigration is accompanies
by certain evils, but these are to b
dealt with specifically. Alien owner
ship Of large tracts of the public domai
is already condemned by public sent
ment. The wild, socialistic theories o
men who do not know enough abou

States or not are equally condemned

BULGARIA writes to the Russian
Government that she has no fears that
the trial of the revolutionary conspira-
tors will jcopardize the peace of the
country. That is one side of the case.
The other is that Russia has fears that
such trial would jeopardize the necks
of good many people whom she insti-
gated to and employed in the recent
revolution. and she will very likely see
that none of her agents are punished
at all severely.

THE Republican State Committee of
New York some time ago decided not
10 hold any convention this year, and
the Democratic State Committee of the
same State yesterday followed suit with
q similar decision. 1t must not, how
ever, be thought that the politicians of
New York are adverse to holding con-
ventions. The trouble Is that at this
time, if conventions were held, they
would be expected to speak out In a

question of prohibition, and this neither

THE VISION OF HAFIZ.


While the House of Hope Is builded on the
weak and shifting sand,
While our breath Is as the wind Is, take the
fiagon In your hand;
For while | was quatling, laughing In the
tavern yesternight,
From the unknown world an angel floated on
my swimming sight,
Handed me a golden vessel, bade me drink,
and as drank
All my swOOnng senses stfaightway in the
pool of sumber sank;
And dreamed dream enchanted OF a land
beyond the sky
Where no youthful cheek grows paler, where
no iiagon eer runs dry,
Where no woman whispers falsely, where no
eyes are ever wet
Where no kisses ever weary, where no loving
hearts forget.
Then woke and wept at waking, leaving in
that pleasant land
Fairer flowers. than Mosellay has, bluer domes
than Samarcand,
Neyermore, unhappy Hahz will you tread
that pleasant land.
Though you suck the seven oceans from their
cup Of golden sand
