A gentleman, while riding through the

A Letter From the Pope.

CLEVELAND, April 9.-The Catholic
Universe this week will print this letter
from Pope Leo XIII, acknowledging the
jubilee gift of President Cleveland. The
copy was forwarded oy Cardinal Gibbons
to Bishop Gilmour, of Cleveland:
"To our Beloved Son, James Glib
bons. Cardinal, Priest of the Holy
Roman Church, Archbishop of Balti-
more: Well beloved SOD, health and
benediction. Among the countless con-
gratulations which ne have received from
all parts of the world upon the occasion
of the fiftieth anniversary of our election
to the priesthood, we have, as was natur-
al, eet more store by the evidence of
courtesy and regard sent by the rulers of
the nations. For by these marks of their
coed will toward the head of the Church
they manifest, and this ne ardently
desire, their kindly dispositions toward
their Catholic subjects. Since then, the
illustrious President of the United States
has. through you, our beloved son, seen
fit to exhibit q like courtesy, accompany
ing the expression of the same with a
gift of a suberb copy of the Constitution
of that most powerful republic, he has in
60 doing afforded US peculiar pleasure
and satisfaction. Moreover, as it is fit.
ting that ne should return to his Excel.
lency the expression of our gratitude, we
commit the discharge of that duty to
you, both on account of you exalted rank
in the hierarchy of the republic, and Of
the personal esteem in which his Excel
lency holds you.
"In fulfilling this duty ne desire that
you should assure the President of our
admiration for the Constitution of the
United States, not only because it has
enabled industrious and enterprising
citizens to attain so high degree of
prosperity, but also because, under its
protection, your Catholic countrymen
have enjoyed liberty which has so con-
fessedly promoted the astonishing growth
of their religion in the past, and will, we
trust, enable it in the future to be of the
highest advantage to the civil order as
we'll. You will be pleased to add that
we will pour forth fervent prayers to God
for your country's constant advance in
glory and prosperity, and for the health
and happiness of the President and his
worthy household. Finally 10 you, be-.
loved son, and to the faithful entrusted
to your pastoral care, we, lovingly in the
Lord, ippart our apostolic benediction." !"

How to get Married, Sure:

A dream of youthful femininity, which
is not always confessed but which will
not down before all the modesty and in.
nocence of maidenhood, is marriage.
During the heydey of life the hope to
marry is rarely 60 pronounced as is the
regret for n.marriage after the matri-
monial years have grown sere. 1t is to
guard all women with life yet before
them against the disadvantageous cir
cumstances of spinsterhood that We
reproduce the remarkable letter which
Mrs. Frank Leslie keeps Autographed
wherewith to refuse the innumerable
offers of marriage that fill her voluminous
mail:
"SIR-An offer of marriage is always
a compliment. At least it is always
intended as such, being the highest tri-
butte Of respect your sex can pay to mine.
To me this compliment comes oftener
than to most women, for the simple rea.
son that my occupation draws me into
constant contact with the men of science,
literature and art, as we'll as society and
practical men of affairs. My life, how.
ever, is SO full, SO perfectly rounded with
its days of charming art work and earn
est endeavor,-. -..and its evenings crowded
full of pleasure and amusement through
the kindness of friends, that I have
neither time nor thought of matrimony,
and shall never marry unless name be
offered me higher niched in the temple
Of fame than that left me by my husband
of which I am thousand times proud.
And so with many thanks for the honor
you have done me, I beg to subscribe
myself what shall probably be to the
end-yours very truly,
"MRs. FRANK LESLIE"
How full of instruction is this for the
young women of the day. Here is the
key for future offers without number.
Follow Mrs. Leslie's lead in you bust.
ness career. Arouse your energy. DIS.
play your talents. Cultivate your
abilities. Exercise devotion to your
task. Grow rich. Make a name for
yourself, and then, even if your beauty
be far below that of Mrs. Leslie, the
masculine division of your race will be
at your feet in crowds.
We do not mean to say that here lies
the only road to welded bliss, but it is
one road, and its roughness and difficult
ties lead to proportionately greater prizes
in this the lottery Of life.-NeD York

4 plaETeiR TEACHING ] Z H1sToaY.

HOW TO EDUCATE PARENTS.

They need educating. 0fthis there is
no doubt. Mrs. Frances Fisher Wood,
sof this city, recently said: "Fhere is q
fixed conviction that no one is so fitted
.to:lsy out and superintend a girls course
.ofstndy as her own parents. In truth,
no one Is less competent. Teu years'
sexpeiience in the classroom taught me
sthat the person who knows least about
schiid,s moral deficiencies and intellectual
nseas Is its own mother" This may
:sesm at frst to be hard saying, bat it is
not Does the mother know more about
what medicine 5 child needs when it is
sick than the skillfnl doctor she calls?
Parents do:not know the progress that
Eaa been made in educational practice
during the. past few years in fact, they
they do not know how they wish their
oMn children to be educated. A lady
writing TO- the CAr;stian Union on this
subject we'll asks: "When daughter

because an evening entertainment has
upset her nerves, what is one to think Of

sor moral training Z"
What can the teacher do? Talk with
parents on this subject whenever oppor.
tanity occurs. Many excellent fathers
sand mothers haye never considered what
education means. To them, "gettiDg the

Rapid Progress.

II is not to be wondered at that in the
olden times men lived slowly, though the
stage coach was fast enough and that two
days was quick time for e journey from
New York to Philadelphia, and four days
from New York to Boston, ajourney now
made in little more than four hours; that
public libraries were unknown and the
annual almanac took the place of the
daily newspaper. We live in different
world from that of our fathers. No other
race has ever known its like. It has
witnessed transformations surprising the
greatest of miracles. 1t has seen cities
spring up on the prairies and become
magnificent centers of business and pop
ulation in less than score of years. 1t
has seen one of the greatest cities of the
world, the rival ofthe oldest aud grandest
centers of foreign wealth, rise in its might
at the ocean gateway of the empire
State. What will the twentieth century
see? Will its restless people be satisfied
with present means of communication
and intercourse Will electricity, with
its marvellous development, continue to
unfold its weird resources and afford the
vital energy that shall Danish time and
distance altogether? Will nations learn
to leave the arts of war to the past and
submit to the arbitrament Of peace
Will the cry of human liberty ring
around the world without once reaching
the ear of the slave? Will the divine
dispensation be sufficient to bring unity
to the Christian churches? Will poverty
be banished, ignorance and superstition
give way to the march Of civilization aud
Christianity, and will the millennium dawn?
Whatever may be the future, mans posi-
ton to day is truly one of unparalleled
grandeur. The night that ushers in the
new year of 1900 will witness the most
magnificent celebration of modern times.
The whole world will unite in welcoming
the new year and the birth OF the TWEEN.
tieth century. May all our readers be
spared to witness the scene and partici.
pate in its unpictured and unwritten glo'
ries.-Al6any Euening Journal.

His Own Funeral Sermon.

ATHENS, GA, April S.-Three thou
sand persons met at the little church
twenty miles from this city in which the
Rev. Nathaniel Pridgeon acts as pastor.
Three months ago Mr.. Pridgeon, who is
"a years old, announced his purpose of
preaching his own funeral sermon on this
day. This eccentric announcement was
followed by an order for special coffin
made of Georgia pine, not painted, and
made secure by chain and paddock. The
coffin was taken out to the little church
yesterday, followed by curious crowd,
who sat around it all night after the
manner of an Irish wake. DR.. Pridgeon
was up by daylight and examined the
coffin critically, testing it by placing
himself in it. Your reporter then took
occasion to find out from him the reason
of his strange freak.
"Young man." said he, "eighty.four
years have passed over my head. have
hearn sermons preached over people
that were not true. I have hearn bad
men praised aud good men half praised.
I have preached the Gospel for fifty
years. I know my own faults and my
own good points. I have determined
not to have men talking over my dead
body about things they do not know. I
made up my mind to preach my own
funeral sermon, and to day I will whip
the carnal Pridgeon and I will extol the
spiritual Pridgeon. When at last my
eyes are closed in death I nant my body
to be put away quickly under the bless
ing which I will pronounce over myself
to-day"
At high noon the old man ascended his
pulpit. On one side were the members
ofhis family in mourning. Just in front
of him vas his open coffin, and around
him we're the 5000 auditors. DR.. Lowry
opened the meeting with singing, and
DR.. Pridgeon made prayer, which he
followed by announcing his text from
Corinthians, 9th verse, I'd chapter and as
a parallel text he read Ephesiaus, 9th
and 9th verses, I'd chapter. BE denounc.
ed the custom of holding funeral obser.
vances, but since custom had forced them
he proposed to attend tohis own funeral
himself.
The sermon was curious medley of
foolish saying and good sense, many OBJ
servations inglaughter. Hymns were
sung frequently, although the affair was
as ludicrous as it was novel. Before he
got through with his discourse many
began to leave the church, but the coun'
try people around listened to the end.
DR.. Pridgeon, after the sermon was over,
gave sketch of his life. He was born
in North Carolina, but has been living in
Georgia seventy years. He has preach.
ed in eleven States, to all Of which the
Lord called him, except Alabama, and
he stoutly declares that only the devil
could draw man to that State. he be.
longs to the Campbellite Church, has
been twice married, and declares that no
man ought to live single for single mo.
ment when so many good women are
anxious to get husbands.

Wild Cattle Of Oregon.

A strange breed of wild cattle is found
in the high hills skirting the Unaqua
valley, Oregon. In the mountains near
Riddles and Rosebud, they are probably
the most plentiful, but they do not ven-
ture down in the valley much. They
stay on the hills and get water from the
living springs which rise there. For the
most part they are concealed in the dense
growth of oak and fir in these mountains.
There is heavy underbrush, too, so it is a
hard matter to get them. They 60 in
bands of six or eight, usually, but at
night herd Of forty or Fifty get together
and lie down in the same yard-that is,
they sleep in the same spot, which. is
usually secluded spot among the ssss.
A band of wild cattle have been k7s'n
to get together on a cleared place like
this every night for couple of years. -
When feeding there are always few
bulls to act as sentinels While the
cattle Craze in bands of half a dozen or
so they are, nevertheless, close to other
bands 80 that an alarm from any Que of
the bulls, which leisurely feed on higher
ground, they all run away together.
The cattle are of all colors and wilder
than deer. It is hard matter to get
shot at them for the reason that their
scent is so keen. They can smell man
a long distance off. They got wild in
1858, when old man Riddles and two or
three others of the first settlers came to
the valley. Their COWS wandered of
and could not be found. After two or
three years all the pioneers had to do
when they wanted beef was to rig out
two or three pack animals and 60 up
into the mountains. The cattle had to
be killed on sight, the same as deer OF
bear, for they could no more be driven
down than deer could. Once killed, they
were quartered, packed on horses and
carried down.
They have been hunted good deal Of
late years, so there are not 30 many as
there used to be. A popularity about
these cattle is that their eyes and horns
are jet black. The retina, iris, and whole
apple of the eye are one mass of solid
black. You can't distinguish any differ
ence in any part Of it. The horns, too
while being black as ink, are long ana
sharp. Brought to bay, the Oregon wild
cattle are very wicked fghters.-Rosto'
