Mexico 10 the heirs of the duke OF

Puritan and Pagan.

1t is surprising to find how the old
pagan mythology finds a place along
side the expression of christian hope.
not only in the reformation times. but
even century later. as witness the
following epitaph on the tomb OF ;
boy who died in the year 1888, aged
nine years:
Great Jove hath lost his Ganymede,
know,
Which made him seek another here below
And finding none, not one like unto this,
Hath tame him hence into eternal bliss.
Cease, then, for the dear Meneleb to weep

But rather joye in this great favour given
A child is made q saint in heaven.

Finding n NlI0ress Meats

The origin OF the expression to find
mares nest has been traced to the
days of the early Saxons. What we
call a nightmare was Dy our forc|ath-
ers supposed to be the Saxon demon
Mara or Mars, kind of vampire.
which caused the incubus by sitting on
the sleeper's chest. The Mare vam-
pires were said to be the guardians OF
hidden treasures over which they
were supposed to brood as hens DO over
their eggs and the place where they
sat was termed their neidus or nest.
Hence when any ona announced that
he had made an extraordinary Giscov-
cry, someone accused him OF finding u
Mares nest or the place where the
vampire kept guard over her hypoth-
etical treasures

MONEY PLEDGED FOR THE CANAL.
Warner MiIIers Success Among Pacific
Coast Financiers.

Coast Financiers.
Since ex-senator Warner Miller's return
from his trip to California and the other Paci-
fc States it has been currently reported in
Wall street that he succeeded in raising good
deal Of money ON that coast for the canal.
Mr. Miller who, as was stated in yesterday
mornings Times is TO start for Europe to-
day. said last night that when he had laid be-
fore the merchants and inanciers of San
Francisco the fact that a few men of this city
and vicinity had 80 far practically carried the
enterprise on their own shoulders by furnish
ing all the money needed up TO date about
$50O0,0 600 Senator Fair. the firm Of Louis
SlOss 4 Co. and others came forward and
offered TO raise all the money he wanted on
the Pacific coast.
II told them" he continued, that we
needed money to carry the work along until an
improvement in the condition of the worlds
finances could enable US 10 conduct our tinan-
cial operations on a large scale. and cOnse-
quently would ask them for only $1,000, 900
at the present time. They replied hat it
might take some months To raise it. but they
would do it. Louis Soss 4 Co. also volun-
teered h act as the financial agents of the
company on the Pacific coast without charge.
Several hundred thousand dollars were sub
scrbed before left. and have been advised
within few days that more than half OF the
my way back also secured subscriptions for
a considerable amount in Chicago, and since
my return to this city have raised several
hundred thousand dollars here. In fact. you
may say that | now have money enough in
sight to carry the work of the canal along for
two years without making any further tinan-
cial arrangements"
Mr.. Miller added that he was not going
abroad in search Of money for the canal, but
for rest and recreation. He had not had "
vacation, he said. for nearly six years and he
thought he needed one. he would travel
about the continent sightseeing with his wife
and daughter. and if he met any one who
wanted 10 talk canal he would talk it. but he
would not go out Of his way to discuss the
subject.
Mr. Miller will sail on the Normannia for
Hamburg at F. NJ. to-day, and a number Of
his personal friends will accompany him down
the bay in the tug Cheney. New York

CATHOLIC INDIAN MISSIONS.
Cardinal Gibbons Talks About the Recent
Controversy.

Controversy.
BALTIMORE Mp, July 90.-A reporter of
the Sun called on His Eminence Cardinal
Gibbons in regard TO the controversy be-
tween the Bureau Of Indian Missions and Com
missioner of Indian Affairs. The Cardinal
SAID: Il have given the subject of the
Catholic Indian Bureau in its rela-
tons 70 the Interior Department much
anxious thought during the last two weeks.
and / have taken all the information that
could be obtained from best and most re-
liable sources am now happy to be in
position TO communicate facts and con
illusions, which ought 10 dIspel the
fears and encourage the hopes of
those intimately connected with the Catholic
Indians of the United States. Undue i'm
portance, | am now satisfied, has been at
tached 10 the recent controversy between the
Commissioner Of Indian Affairs and the
Bureau Of Catholic Indian Missions. Mr.
Morgan has thought il advisable tor
the more effective expediting of bust
ness in his department 10 have all
contracts for schools signed by the several
superintendent Of such schools rather than
by the director OF the Catholic Bureau as
heretofore practiced. DO not see how this
change can in any manner affect the real in
terests Of the Indians, and therefore 1t Is a
point which should not disturb US The Bureau
Of Catholic Indian MissOnsi is still in position
TO labor in many fields Of usefulness In fact
the signing Of contracts was not originally
comprised in the scope Of It's work. At my
request and in obedience 10 his own hearty
sympathy for the Indians the archbishop of
ST. Paul paid today a visit TO Mr.. Morgan.
The Commissioner received him most kindly
and gave him positive assurances Of his dis
position and intention 10 treat the Catholic
Indian schools with equity and generosity.
Mr. Morgan promised that all of last years
contracts shall be continued and furthermore
in view of new applicstions:rec made to
him. he is, he said. appropriatng an additional
sum Of go. 900. over and above the amounts
heretofore assigned for the support Of Catho-
lie Indian schools. have every reason to be-
lieve that the President and Secretary OF tie
Interior are beneyolently disposed toward the
Indian Catholic mission schools. Indeed, on
this point speak adyisedly.'
