THE LATE MIR. BRUNO.

A mornings dispatch was to the ef.
feet that the Pope had "decreed the
Feast of the Sacred Heart, feast of the
first class, to be celebrated on the
Octave, July5. This is also the bi-cen.
tennial Of the devotions, and the Pope
enjoins the faithful throughout the
world TO hear mass and offer prayer In
expiaton for the insults offered in these
days TO religion when infidels are
memmialized in bronze and the Church
hampered by their followers in her
work for the salvation of man."
This-of course refers TO the late un.-
yelling in Rome Of statue to Bruno, a
scientific but rather daring gentleman,
who did not know any better, some
centuries ago, than to say what he
thought. He did not agree with the
theologians of the time, and the theo.
logians of the time, being in power,
roasted Mr.. Bruno at the stake. with
great unction and much formality.
Modern Italians, realizing that the
gentleman whose dissolution was so ac-
complished through the medium of the
Church, with accompaniment of chant.
ings and the odor of burning flesh, was
not bad sort of fellow-was, in fact,
really clever man of advanced ideas
have made bronze statue in his honor.
This is the insult" referred to.
We can hardly agree with His
Holiness regarding the. enormity of the
Italians ofrcnse. Were Mr.. Bruno living
today he would not form the uneasy
centre.piece in an exhibition of in
quisitorial fireworks. Pontifical pin
wheels, TO use a Fourth of July express
sion, are not so ornamented nowadays.
The world has advanced, the Roman
Catholic Church has advanced since tho
days OF Bruno, and Bruno dead is en-
titled 10 whatever honor might accrue
TO Bruno living sort of honor which
accrues to day 10, say, Darwin.
Tribute 10 man of brains long since
dead is not an insult TO the Church Of
to-day merely because the Church Of
another day roasted the man of brains
alive. The Importance of the Bruno in
client seems to have been somewhat ex-
aggerated.

INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION.
The First Informal Session Of tho Paris
Conferences.

LONDON, June 29.--Advices from
Paris state that the first informal ses-
sion Of the international conference Of
slelegates from legislative bodies In the
interest of peace and international ar
bitration opened this morning. The
conference Is largely attended, and al
though the work Of organization Is all
that can be attempted to-day the inter
est Of those on the ground Is apparent
This conference grows out of the efforts
Of o committee composed OF members
of Parliament, several Of whom visited
the United States last year in behalf Of
the movement As q result there Is q
large delegation from America. headed
by Congressman Mason of Chicago.
Fifty members of the House Of Com.
mons represent England, and delegates
are present from the Parliaments Of
Australia, Italy, Germany, Switzerland,
. Belgium and Denmark Humanita-
rians have long before been anticipating
this conference, and attach greater inn
portance 20 IL than TO an ordinary peace
congress, from the fact that itis com
posed entirely Of Legislators who not
only have influence In shaping the
policy of their respective counties, but
who also have voice In making that
policy.

THERE'S row brewing In Grand Army
circles at Fond du Lac, Wis, and in
terest In II isn't confined TO that sec
ton; the case Is not without interest
throughout the State II grows out of
General Edward s. Bragg's return to
his home, and an effort being made by
him TO gain membership in the Grand
Army post at Fond du Lac.
In Congress he distinguished himself
by making q fiery speech on the subject
OF pensions, In which he applied
numerous epithcts 10 the old soldiers
who composed the Grand Army. The
position taken by General Bragg in his
speech was the talk of the whole coun-
try and embittered the Grand Army
members against him. The g. A. r.
post at Fond du Lac, of which he was
supposed 10 be n member proceeded at
once 10 investigate the matter, with
view of expelling him from the order
The committee came TO the conclu-
sion that inasmuch as General Bragg
was not member Of the post they had
no jurisdiction in the case. He had
been transferred from the post at Ju-
ncau, and that body had no jurisdic-
tiOn.
Here was q dilemma. Tho offender
had been commander Of post and was
paying dues into Its treasury, yet had
never been properly constituted mem
Der of II. He couldn't be ousted from
the organization, because there was no
evidence that he was member, and II
was decided TO drop the matter. Said
a member of the post at Fond du Lac.
I'VE didn't know what else to do but
lie down We had sat under his com
membership and accepted his member.
ship dues, yet he was not member Of
our post" ..-.4..,.. .,,sr.
During General Braggs stay In
Mexico and some time prior thereto his
dues were not paid to the Fond du Lao
post. Non-payment of dues for that
length OF time would necessitate the
I dropping of evena bona fide member.
Soon after General Bragg's return TO
Fond du Lac he wanted to pay his dues,
but the treasurer refused to receive
them on the ground that he was not q
member OF the post General Bragg
succeeded in getting some members TO
plead his case. The meeting of the
post last week was lively one The
case was argued pro and con and his
friends and opponents had an opportu-
nifty TO air their opinions Of him. 1t will
be brought up at the meeting this week
and lively time Is anticipated. M H
CHICAGO, June 29.--The report that
( General Bragg, commander of the
old Iron Brigade, is debarred from
membership in Grand Army post, has
