MANY QUESTIONS FNOM ROME.
Priests Asked for Information About
Mixed Marriages.

Priests Asked for Information About
Mixed Marriages.
Bisbop Junxer of this territory has re.
Gently been called upon by the Sacred Col.
iese OF loqulsition at Rome In common
with the archblshops and other bishops OF
this country tor certain information re.
Qardinx mixed marriages. The object OF
the present inquiry Ia to ascertain the op.
era,ion OF the existing rules of the church
governing the marriage of Catholics with
those " no are not of that faith. The
Catholic church forbids such marriages. as
u rule, hut permits them under special
dispensation, which archbishops and
bishops are permitted to grant. Thus, for
instance, such marriages are permitted
where probability is shown that the non.
Catholic party to the union may thereby
be brought into the church. But In all
cases IA stipulation or promise is required
that the children of parents so required
shall bp brought up in the Catholic faith.
Rev Father r. b,uann. S. J the priest
of this parish. has been asked by Bishop
Jubger for formation in regard to the
subject. Father R-bmann told u REVIEW
reporter that during his pastorate of two
years he had performed four mixed mar
RIGGS. In each case the rules estab-
lisned by the church had been complied
with.
"Is IL to be inferred from this call for
information that disregard of the rule Of
the church prevails in such marriages ?"
asked the reporter.
"Not at all,"' was the regly. "The in.
quiry 10 merely made to ascertain the
facts and the operation Of the existing
rules"
"What is your opinion in regard to it
are the rules OF the church generally re.
garded In such marriagesp"

ST. PAUL. Dec. Sl.--A vote has been
taken by Deadwood, OAK, paper on the
question OF single or double statehood,
and 1t is shown that a little more than Eve
sixths of those answering are in favor Of
division and admission as bwo states.
Answers received are from various parts of
Southern Dakota, and those voting are Of
all occupations and all political faiths.
This vote ia believed to be fair represen-
teton of the public sentiment on the mat
ter, which daily grows stronger.
II is generally believed that division and
admission are simply questions of time.
and while waiting the outcome With con-
siderable anxiety, the people have already
begun to look after the prizes to be secured
when the new states are introduced. Every
move at the national capitol is watched for
eagerly while number of Dakota towns
nre looking after the fences and generally
brushing up 10 the hope that they may be-
come the seat OF government. While fev
towns are especially anxious to secure that
plum all are united in the effort to bring
settlers into the soon-to. be state.

A LOCAL VIEW.
The Professor's Watch Was Fortunately
Little Slow.

Eho Frofessor's watch was Fortunately
Little slow.
Elaborate preparations had been made
by q party of local scientists, headed by
Prof. Blank, for the observation of the
eclipse here. Prof. Blank announced that
the moon wsuld begin to cross the sun
about 1888 in the afternoon, and before
that time five strong. hardy, resolute men,
some wearing boards and others heavy
overcoats, gathered around his instru.
meuts of observation, prepared to do all that
IN them lay IN the interests of science. The
scene was an imposing one.
How are things progressing?" asked O
small man with large birthmark on his
left cheek. He addressed the professor,
Who had been examining q telescope with
the air of Q doctor feeling sick mans
pulse.
Silence fell on the little group of de-
termined men which was broken only
when the professor said "Hush!'
OF course everybody cried whats the

ment. In aa swed voice he whispered:

built that way.
No answer was given. The professor
continued to gaze eagerly through the in
strument; his mpanions Razed with in
terest at him; the locomotives whistled in
a shrill, sharp way, and the wild, weird
musical clash of the sawmill could be
heard In the distance.
So passed several minutes.

eye that had been glued to the instrument
