Gov. Nc Gill took day off yesterday
In Difference to Mayor Ames' proclama-
ton, and went over to the labor picnic
at Minneapolis. The governor recog-
nizes the fact that the labor vote will
cut some figure in the fall election, and
he doesn't intend to lose it, if going to
picnics will secure it for him.

John Caufield, secretary of the water
board do not care to have this Ques-
tion of water supply in the business dis
tricts opened up again. A fair and
honest test has been made in the prem

knows. fully and unqualiliedly lndorsed
the opinions of the water board. There

A capital story is told by Thomas NJ.
NewSon. 1t was of an old settler in the
state, whose evil habit was that of
swearing. If it rained he swore; if it
was fine he SwOre; no matter what the
occasion was or circumstances were, he
would have his swear. Travelling one
day in fine, easy-running railway car,
the old settler was swearing away be-
cause the car wheels run as if upon
grease. A sprig of minister present
volunteered TO cure him of this wicked
ness, and going towards him said: ''Sir,
do you know that you are on the road to
hell?' Just my damned luck" replied
the old settler, land I've got ticket to
Rochester"
A policeman's lot is said not to be a
happy one, but what must be that of a
telephone operator? Certainly it is far
from being bed of roses. Unneces-
sary Worry, however. is given this use
full class of public servants by the i'm
patience of those who use the phone"
Said an operator last evening: ''If peo-
pie making calls would exercise one
scintilla of patience both trouble and
time would be saved. 1t should be re-
membered that thousands of calls are
made during the day, and that the wires
are not being used solely by every person
who chances to make a call. 1t is to
our interest to make the connections
desired with promptness. and this idea
is always in view, but matters are in no
wise expedited by furious ringing of the
bells or abuse of the operators. who. by
the way, are only human. Another
thing, it should be remembered that
with the hundreds of wires in use how
easily one may become entwined with
the other aud get out of order. Patience
might also be exercised in that direc-
ton. No! not the patience of Job. We
do not ask that, but something within
reasonable limits.'

ROME, December 24.-The Pope has
given SO, 400 to the poor of Rome, and
5000 to poor priests as Christmas gifts.
TEMPORAL POWER.
The Pope addressing the Sacred Col
ege to-day gave thanks to God for the
blessings which his jubilee had brought
him. He affirmed with much feeling
his former uttersnces on the question of
Temporal Power, and Indignantly re-
jected the accusation that he was an
enemy of Italy. He urged Catholics
everywhere to agitate in legal man.
ner for the restoration of Papal Suprem-
acy and spoke in depreciation of recent
liberal enactments in Italy. The
speech referre exclusively to the Vati-
can and Italy. His Holiness said the
whole world saw in what a painful sit
uation he was placed. One could only
ask how far will they 60. At the pres
ent time a systematic war was being
waged. Even the person of the Pope
was exposed to threats of the mob.
Enemies of the Holy See had weapons
enough already to injure the Papacy,
and if these did not suffice they were
to manufacture fresh weapons
1t was persistently asserted that the
Pope was an enemy of Italy. This
was simply made to mask the
real object of the perfidious war against
the Church, and that object was to rem
der the Italians hostile to the Papacy.
To vindicate the rights of the Pontiff
was in reality to advance the prosperity
9f Italy. To demand that the greatest
moral power in the world should possess
real sovereignty in Italy where provi-
1ence had placed the Church CEN
'uries ago was not an act of hostility to
,he country. The fact that Bishops in
oreign lands were laboripg for the
'estoration of the Pope's Temporal
lights proved that the interests of the
whole Catholic Church were bound up
n the cause.

THOSE BAY CITY FRAUDS,

SAN FRANCISCO, December PA con-
ference committee of the Democratic and
Republican county committees met this
afternoon in the rooms of the Republican
county committee to consider what action
should be taken towards bringing frauds
perpetrated at the last election to the
attention of the grand jury. 1t was
decided to address communication to
DR.. G. @. O'Donnell, Independent candi-
date for Mayor who is having the
recount made for that office, asking
for information he is supposed to possess
in relation to the frauds, and that notice
be published in the papers requesting
all citizens in possession of knowledge
likely to be of service to the Commission
ers to transmit the same to them. The
conference seems to favor a general re-
count, but could find no legal authority
therefor. Finally the conclusion was
reached that all actions for special re.
count should be filed before January 9th.
The Commission then adjourned until
Wednesday.

SPEAKER CARLISLE.

Seized with n Conge-tive chin at the
Dinner Table.
WASHINGTON, January 16.-Speaker
Carlisle was taken suddenly with a con-
gestive chill this evening while at the
dinner table in the Riggs House, and
had to be assisted to his room by Mrs.
Carlisle. The chill was followed by a
high fever, and for am hour or more the
Speaker was slightly delirious- DIR.
Sewers was called and at a late hour the
patients condition was reported some
what better. DIR. Sewers described
Carlisle's illness as something in the
nature of congestive chill accompanied
by a low state of the nervous system due
to overwOrk. The preparation of the
House committee lists and the additional
labor thrown upon him by the contest
for his seat severely strained his powers
of endurance, which had already been
weakened by a cold contracted last
Thursday. The Speakers illness will
probably compel him to cancel his en-
gagement to deliver a speech i'm the
South some time in the latter part Of
this month, and it also is probable that
he will be unable to preside over the
House for several DAYS.
