they paid no attention to his order. He
then visited the American consular agent

Canon Griffin Dfspleased at Mr.. Healy's Re
marks About the University Scheme.
DUBLIN, Oct. Canon Griffin. of county
Cork, has written a letter severely con-
demning the statements made by Mr.. Tim
othy Healy at recent meeting of the Dub
I'm branch of the National League. that the
denunciation by Mr.. Balfour of the Cath
olic university scheme was bitter blow
to those seeking to consolidate the power of
England at the Vatican against the Irish
Nationalists, and that the leading object of
the mission of Monsignor PersicO to Ire
land was to muzzle the Irish ecclesiastics.
Canon Griffin says that Mr.. Healy's re-
marks were. grossly ensulting. and that
should such language reach the Vatican it
must teach the Pope what to expect if men
like Mr.. Healy ever get in power in Ire
land. Canon Griffin declares that it looks
very much like schism in the church when
Catholics applaud such utterances as those
of Mr. HeaIy.

Republicans Win in Washington.

TACOMA, w. T., Oct. From meagre
returns received from this and adjacent
counties, the vote will be larger than ever
before cast in the Territory. Indications
all point to the election of
Ferry and the entire Republican State
ticket. including Wilson for Congress. by a
majority averaging 1900. Scratching was
general on both tickets. The complex
ion of the Legislature must remain
in doubt until the vote is fully
counted, as the battle was concen-
trated on that field. The separate
articles to the Constitution, embracing the
prohibitory and woman suffrage planks,
are unquestionably defeated by large ma
jority. The constitution will be ratified,
but not by the majority its supporters
thought it would obtain.
Midnight.-The returns now indicate
that Washington has elected a Republican
Governor and Congressman by 1000, and
the Legislature by fifteen majority.
At Walla Walla the women's vote was
received at all precincts, but were de-
posted in separate boxes. The total vote,
excepting women. is 1,462. Only ninety
women voted. At Rockford the women
tried to vote, but were refused.

a uebrw Anniyersary in 1907.

All Hebrew organizations throughout the
country have formed an association for the
purpose OF worthily commemorating the
400th anniversary of the discovery Of Amer
ica in 1902, which is also the anniversary
of the expulsion of the Hebrews from
Spain. Circulars to this effect have been
sent to every town and city where there is
a Hebrew congregation or society. A me
mortal is to be erected, and it may take
the form Of monument or college. Dur
ing the centennial year the Hebrews erect
ed monument in Fairmount Park, Phila-
delphia, which was designed and executed
by the celebrated sculptor Ezekiel, of Gin
cinnati, representing the Goddess Uf Liber-
ty protecting religion, the latter typifed by
child holding a cap from which the flames
of a fe.giving belief issue. The Hebrews
are lovers of freedom and have always
been grateful to those who have exercised
toleration towards them.

The Locust wing.

Some say that the seventeen-year-old
locusts are due this year and others say
they are not. An exchange in working an
item out of the subject says "More or
less superstition is attached to the advent
of the locust, and many put full confidence
in the belief that the fate of the country for
the next seventeen years is decided by
whatever letter appears on the locusts
wing. In proof of this they cite the fact in
1855, when they appeared in great abund-
ance the letter wv could be plainly seen on
their wing, which signified war. AS war
followed in few years the superstitious
Idea gained strength, and is very generally
believed in throughout the country. In
1872, the next regular period for their ap-
pearance, it is claimed the letter 'P' could
be as distinctly seen as the W. of seven
teen years before. Peace and plenty fol-
lowed their last appearance, which satisfies
the credulous that the locust is true pro-
phet. What letter will appear on their
wings this year has not yet been discovered,
but the country folks are anxiously await
ing an investigation of the matter"
