The Pnne's Charges.

The Pope has issued an encyclical, in
which he thanks God for the consultations
consequent upon the jubilee, and thanks
the Catholic world for the many evidences
Of affection. His holiness then refers to
religious matters and expresses regret that
the tendency of the age is toward material
interests, this tendency being strengthened
by an evil press and drama, Generalization
of the arts and atheistical teachings in the
schools. He denounces socialism, nihilism
and communism as the natural outgrowth
of the devotion TO material things.
