CATHOLIC sALooNkeePeRs,
They Are AdEaonlshed In Accordance With

They Are Adyaonished In Accordance with
the Deere~s Of the Flenxry Council.
CHiCAeo. April PA decree of great
Importance has been published IN the Cath
olic churches for the first time, and one
that must have great influence in deciding
that portion Of tho saloon question which
relates to Sunday observance. The de-
crees are based on the action of the Plspary
Council at Baltimore, and that portion Of
them relating to the saloon question is as
follows: FINALLY, we warn Catholics en-
gagged in the sale Of Intoxicating drinks to
consider seriously by how many and how
great dangers, by how many and
how great occasions Of sin their
business, though in itself no. un-
lawful, is surrounded. Let them, il
they can, choose q more becoming way OF
making q living. Let them, at any rate,
strive with all their might to remove occa.
sions Of sin as well from themselves as
from others. They must not sell drink to
minors, that is to say to those who have
not come Of age nor who they foresee will
abuse it They must keep their saloons
closed on Sunday and never allow bias
pheming, curSing or obscene language.
Saloenkeepers Should know that IL,
through their culPable neglect or co-opera-
ton, religion is brought into contempt or
men brought to ruin, there is an avenger in
Heaven who will surely exact from them
the severest penalties"

ALIEN LABOR.

The President Writes y Letter on tho En-
plsy,nent OF Alien FIshermer.
BosToN, April ga letter to United
States District Attorney CALVIN from
President Cleveland relative to the I'M
portation Of foreigners is a. follows: "In-
formation has reached the Treasury De-
rartncnt that large number OF foreign.
ers have been brought into Massachusetts
in violation Of the Contract Labor law for
the purpose OF manning American fishing
vessels sent out from the ports OF Glou-
cester, Boston and Beverly for the purpose
of taking fish along the Canadian coast 1t
seems to me quite certain that such for
.gners and aliens have been brought in BY
parties in direct violation Of the statute
covering such cases and believe the i'm.
portation OF such foreigners tends TO the
displacement of American labor l am
aware many Of these persons have,
through the care of the officials, been re-.
turned to the country from which they
came. / therefore enjoin on you the duty
OF prompt Investigation OF these cases
and request that you confer with the col
iectors Of the ports of Boston and Glouces-
ter that prompt and effective measures
may be taken. The department has ordered
that special agents be detailed who will
report directly to you. and if you require
any further assistance it Will be given you
upon arplication.'

The Immediate TransnDrtatIon Act

WASHINGTON, April 26.-Wes,ern i'm
porters are endeavoring to secure II moi:
tication Of the Immediate Transportation
act, which will facilitate inland lmpor,.,
tions. One Of the mharrassments W h cl
importers IN interior cities now have is the
provisions OF the law contained in sections
1890 ard 1896, Revised Statutes. whIcl,
excludes from the benefits OF the Immedi-
ate Transportation act any merchandise
which shall remain in the bonded ware
house more than ten days. II is oftcn
found impracticable by the inland import
ers to secure their invoices in time to COM
ply with these provisions of the law and
the movement now is to amend the Revised
Statutes So they shall have thirty DAYS
within which time to comply with the for
malities necessary to inland entry. This
movement is supported by the leading
Western importers aud is immediately al.

that it would be popular. Frac-

extending to the most remote part of the

advantages, which had led to its abandon

sons against a renewal of such circula-
ton. The Comptroller Of the Currency,

cations OF the bill to reimburse depositors

ELECTRIC HEATING.


Patents Issued for Methods of Transmit
Promised.
WASHINGTON, April e5.-Five important
patents were yesterday issued to Elias A.
Ries. Baltimore electrician, for methods
and apparatus for heating by electricity
These inventions are based upon and en-
body radically new departure in the art
OF converting electricity into heat. by
means Of which the various losses attend
ing previous attempts in this direction
are entirely overcome. 1t is claimed that
by this system dwellings and other
places can be supplied with heat from
central generating stations by the same
conductors that now supply them with cur
rents for tncandescen. electric lights, and
at cost considerably less than that for
which an equal amount Of heat can be
produced by the crude and wasteful
methods now in vogue. The success of
this system Of electric heating is due to
Mr.. Reis' method Of utilizing the current
expansively, so to speak, the heat being
produced by secondary or transformed"
currents, having an extremely low cleo
tr1cal pressure, but possessing unusually
great heating qualities. The system is
said to be absolutely safe, and the pat
ents referred to not only include inven-
tons for private he ating and heating from
central stations, but also special methods
for heating and lighting railway cars by
electricity.
Patents covering other important appli-
cations, such as for various domestic and
industrial operations, are still pending
before the Patent Office. The uses to
which a practical and economical system
OF electric heating, such as this appears
to be, are applicable, are so many, and
the field SO vast, that if the claims made
for this method are verified, it is possible
that these patents will prove to be of far
greater value even than those granted on
the electric light and the telephone.

NATIoNALisTs INTERVIEWED.

Concensus of Their Opinions In Regard
to Threatened Papal Condemnation of
the ''Plan Of Campaign" and Boycotting
In Ireland-They Take But Little Stock
in the Report.
LONDON, April PA number Of Nation.
alist members of Parliament were inter-
viewed to-day regarding the report to the
effect that Pope Leo intends issuing a
condemnation Of the plan Of campaign,
and the practice Of boycotting in Ireland.
and forbidding his people to fol-
low the directions of the Ma
tional League in these matters. All
the members seen expressed it Us
their opinion that this report was simply
| revival Of like statements made from
time to time by the Tory press for the
purpose OF influencing English votes, and,
II possible, to intimidate the Irish who
were struggling hard against the govern
nent's measures in the unequal fight for
liberty. "Why should the Pope do this:"
asked one Of the members. 1T is far
more consistent to my mind to think that
the Pope is inclined to favor Ireland
rather than to array himself on Ergland's
side. In the first place. con-
slider the great number Of Catholics
"uo dtS IL Acl0UO. anu WHO, IN Sp1te OF
their poverty, give rot only faithfully but
very largely to the support of the church
They constitute the truest of the rope's
people to-day. and nowhere would His
Holiness find safer and better asylum
from possible persecution, or more &C.
voted defenders, than in Ireland. EesiGes
these considerations, the Pope would
hardly, for the sake OF pleasing
England, proceed in direction
contrary to that indicated in the
various reports he has had from
different authorities on Ireland. Mgr.
Persico's report on Ireland was favorable
in most respects, and he most certainly
did not advise the Pope to interfere with
the legitimate means Of warfare employed
by the people. Cardinals Newman ard
Gibbons have both made favorable re-
ports to the Pope in regard to
Ireland, but perhaps the strongest
and best Of all was that Of Cardinal
Manning, who told Pope Leo that il he
were an Irishman, living in Ireland, he
would consider himself justified in join
ing the plan Of campaign and OF doing just
what the people were doing there in de-
f.nse Of their rights. The idea that the
D.ke of Norfolk went to Rome to influence
the Pope in these matters has no founGa-
ton in fact. He merely conveyed the
congratulations Of Queen Victoria to His
Holiness on his first visit. and his sub
sequent visit was personal one"

Yortck lcArna that hls wife is ialse In fact as we'll a felgning, that his ward is in reality Ais wFonger, and, a may rcadily be imagined. tAere ia nothing wanting to make him In that Agonixing moment . tragoaiAn, He kills the boy he has loved, and the curtain of the old Globe falls upon the spectacle of his bending over the body with passionate self. approaches. The final curtain falls after the Glohe manager has como to the tootlights and explained that rorick, carried away by the passion of the scene, has unlntentionaliy taken the life of hia fellow actor.
 The latest play about players which the Engliah-s speaking stage has seen has been made too familiar by the genius of Miss Anderson to require description. It is "Comedy and Tragedy" by Mr. W. s, Gilbert. The author has not seen 6t to deny the charge that he took 1t almost bodily from the French, and, indeed, there Ia nothing discrcditable in such an Ac- tion. We take up Sheridan and trace an idea to Wycherley; the latter we iind to have appropriated the work of Moliere and Moliere himself was . more unconscionable pirate than any of his successors. Trace . good plot back to its origin, and the first who used 1t win bs found to have taken hls ground work from some actual happening. Art es not in lnventing nateriais but in i1blding them. The style is everything. AS e rccent writer has happily put 1t, "A note in music is a note in muslc, but it makes certain difference whether it be sounded on penny whistle or silver trumpet"
 Even . superficial glance at sub. ject like "Plays About Players, ,"which is worthy of exhaustive treatment, cannot be concluded without men. tioning the exqulsite sketch of "Mra. Oldfeid," in which Miss Gencvicve Word appeared during her Chicago visit of some three ycars ago. IT the English have snubbed several aspir. ing American actors, 1t must Dc said that they have given to Miss Ward, who is an American, that measure of rccog milton which her country men, for some inexplicable reason, have withheld. The most intellectual ot American actrcsses (and there is not a surplusagc of intellectually In the profesaion) she was left severely alone by Chicago playgoers during her latest engagement In this city. The few who had the good fortune to see her will remember both her splendid personation of Sarah Churchill and her sympathetic sketch of Mrs. Oldjfeid. The latter was an actress who made as digniAod a figure on the boards In her time Aa Mas Ward does in ours. The sketch referred to, the authorship of which slips the memory, was merely 6 picture of Mrs. Oidjieid in hcr private lie, and of the impression she makeA upon an honest farmer, who begs her to disen- chant his captivated son. That Miss Ward played tho character charmingly goes without saying. A high type of actress 1t was easy for her to portray, because in her own person 1t was al. ready exemplified --A America.

THE suRoHERs' BATTLE.
BY WILLIAM MORRIS.

Thick rise the spear -shAfts o'er the land That erst the hAFvest bore: The sword is heavy fin the hand And we return no more. The light wind waves the Buddy Fox Our banner of the war, And nipples in the Running OK, And we return no more. Across our stubble acree now The teams go four and four; But out.worn elders guide the blow, And we return no more. Ard now the women hAavyeyed Turn through the open door From gazing down the highway wide, Where VIC return no more. The shadows of the fruited close Dapple the feast hall floor; There lie our dogs and dream and doze And we return no more. Down from the minister tower today Fall the soft chimes of yore Amid the chatterfng jackdaws' play; And we return no more. But underneath the streets are still; No0n-and the markets o'erl Back go the good wives o'er the hill; For we return no more. What merchant to our gates shall comes What wise men bring us lore? What abbot rlde away to Rome, Now we return no mores What mayor shall rule the hall we built? Whose scarlet sweep the floor? What judge shall doom the robbers guilt Now we return no more? New houses in the streets shall rise Where builded we before, Of other stone wrought otherwise; For we return no more. And crops shall cover field and hill Unlike what once they bore. And all be done without our will, Now we teturn no more. Look upl the arrows streak the sky, The horns of battle roar; The long spears lower and draw nigh, And we return no more. Remember how beside the vain We spoke the word of war, And sowed this harvest of the plain, And we return no moro. Lay spears about the Buddy Foxi The days of old are OCT; Heave sword about the Running Oxi For we return no more.
