Archbishop Ireland, in his address before the National Educational Asso- citation at St. Paul, declared that, though he is a Catholic prelate, he would rather have Professionalism taught in the public schools than to have no religion taught there. The utterance indicates a very liberal mind, but it is founded, as too much of the discussion of this subject is, upon total misapprehension of the question of Protestantism or Cath 'olicism. It is not in this country even question whether or not the children would be the better for re- Hgious instruction. It is simply question of the functions of the State and the rights of men, Ours is a purely secular State, in which men of all religions and men of no religion are upon an exactly equal foo.ing be- fore the law. It has nothing what ever to do with creeds or with religion, except to protect all citizens alike in their perfect religious liberty. The public schools are maintained by the secular State for the secular education of the children; their religious educa- tioY, q, a poattar with which the State has no right to concern itself. That is matter for parents and pastors. The State has no more right to teach q religion which is held by the great majority of the people. than to teach one held by enly one of all it's citi- zens. It has no right to interfere with religion at all.-The World.

Some one may ask me: "If not for the good of the children, nor for the sake of religion, but fer her own safety, should not the State teach re- ligion?" Men and women of every possible shade of belief, and of every possible shade of non-belief down ts zero of belief, make the State, and support the State, therefore the State can have no religion nor can she sup port any. If the State has no relig- ion then how can she teach it2-Rev. T. D. Peake. s.--s5

inaIhtr of Kids Gang Captnred.

A special dispatch from Globe to the Tucson Citizen, dated July 26th says
 The Apache renegade who was wounded in the fight of the l7th inst, on Ash creek, was captured yesterday by Chief Antonio's men, on the San Carlos river, about twelve miles from San Carlos, and was brought in and placed in the Military Guard House. Saves is one of the Kid gang who murdered Sheriff Reynolds and Dep uty Holmes last November
 Saves was wounded three times dur ing the fight of the l7th, but man. aged to escape and elude capture till yesterday. He had in his possession Sheriff Reynolds rifle, which he says Pask .Lan-Tat, who was killed on the 17th, had given him. This leaves only Kid and Tonto-B-SixW alive of the party of eight convicts who particip- ated in the murder of Sheriff Key nelds. It is reported that Tonto-B- Sixty has also been killed, but this cannot be verified as yet. Saves boasts of having killed several white men. He will be tried in Pinal County for
  the murder of Sheriff Reynolds and Deputy Holmes.
