The POpe's Temporal Power.

At the session of the Austrian delega.
ton in Vienna Herr Zollinger asked d
question in regard to the papacy's insist
ing upon its independence, claiming thai
the Church is not an Italian but an inter
national Catholic affair, and that the
pope's claim to sovereignty in his own
territory is perfectly legitimate.
Count Kaluoky replied that the people
of Austria-Hungary wished peace with
Italy. Our alliance with Italy, he con.
cluded, forms the basis of our policy.
The question of the pope's sovereignty
can not be raised by us. without wound.

A BLOW TO FRANCES HOPES.

Won CaprIvi Sees No Cause for Alarm
I'm the CrOnstadt Meeting.
Chancellor von Caprivi, in speech IN
the reichstag refuted the reproaches 1T
tered against the government on account
of its so called Facilitating policy. Truth
and frankness, he said, were the best
methods in foreign politics.
The kaiser's journey to Russia, he con-
tinued, had established friendly inter
course between the two monarchs, but no
political matters had been discussed be-
tween them. The position of France and
Russia toward the dreibund had not
changed. All that happened at Cron-
stadt was that the existing conditions be-
came manifest.
But there was no need of uneasiness.
The cars intentions were most pacific
only care must be taken to avoid clumsy
errors. The cars government was in a
iposition to make its will prevail. Its III
creased confidence in the French consti-
Ituted no danger to Germany.
Referring to the state of general arma.
ment in Europe, the chancellor said that
this would continue much longer. unin-
duenced by the resolves adopted by peace
congresses. 1t was, however, a matter
of satisfaction that the general prepared

Ex-NIaYOr Grace ReaIRna.

A letter of resignation, which exMayor
William R. Grace has sent to Secretary
Richard T. Greener, declining to act any
longer as president and trustee of the
Grant Monument Association, has caused
a sensation in New York.
The ex-mayor is disguised. He is very
much put out with the way affairs have
shaped themselves in the past year, and
the introduction into the management
of certain persons with whom he has no
community of interest whatever has not
tended to allay his annoyance.

HANGED A CORPORAL.
uurderous Act OF DiscOntsnted British
Horse Guards.

EIurderous Act OF Discontinued British
Horse Guards.
There was much excitement at the
horse guards in London upon the receipt
of intelligence from Aldershot, where is
situated a great military camp and bar
racks. that a spirit of murderous insub-
ordination was prevalent in one of the
regiments stationed at that place.
1t appears that a corporal of the Second
Battalion of the Prince of Wales's Lem
ster Regiment Royal Canadians), which
battalion is at present doing duty at Aid
ershot, had by his petty tyrannies rem
dered himself an object of peculiar aver
sion to the men.
Complaints were made in the usual mil
itary form against the obnoxious corpo-
raj. but they seemed to have no effect.
Finally the men became convinced that
they would find no relief by complaining,
and determined to rid themselves of the
corporal AS the corporal was going his
round he was seized by the men. He at
tempted to call for assistance, but his cries
were speedily silenced by gag.
He was then informed of the fate in
store for him, and despite his struggles
was dragged without ceremony to a con-
venient spot. Here a moose was thrown
around his neck, and willing hands soon
mad him suspended in the air. The free
end of the rope was made fast, and the
self appointed executioners decamped.
The corporal was discovered and cut
down before the rope had done fatal work.

There il one thing upon which South
ern people are to be congratulated, and
that is the character of the Southern
press. The great majority of Southern
papers are neatly printed aud carefully
edited. Nor is this all. for most of the
managers are not only intelligent,
but alive to the needs of their sections,
and are unselfish and untiring In their
effort to promote the best interest Of the
South. republican and Democrat NAV
fly at each others head during a political
cOmpaign, but upon industrial questions
and general prosperity they are pretty
nearly a unit.
The greater portion Of the press ap-
pears to realize. too. the necessity of en-
cOuraging the farmers. and not few
are devoted in their efforts to bring a
bout diversified system of agriculture.
The papers also manifest a lively inte-
rest in the success Of new or untried
branches OF farming in their various
localities. This is as it should be, and
they may safely count upon realizing a
reward commensurate with the effort
Farmers are sometimes slow to take
hold of matter. but the persistent ef-
fort of the press to better their condition
must be recognized IN time, and appre-
citation will follow. In order to keep up
with the worlds progress it is necessary
to read. and the progressive country
weekly need have little to fear of its
future. A good paper well managed
creates something of a sense Of local
pride, and this must ever increase as the
farmers become more awakened to the
fact that they must read as we'll as
work. Now, il the Southern press will
keep the idea before the Southern people,
the diversified farming. diversified in
dustries. and diversified knowledge
among the people are Of the greatest
present needs, the prosperity of the
South will be much greater i'm the fu-
ture than it has been i'm the past. 1t
may be added. too, that to read the pa
pers is one of the chief duties of man,
il he would be prosperous and we'll in

the criterion by which the outside world
measures the intelligence of a cOmmu-

generous in the support OF its news

BOLD ATTEMPT.

Saturday night last, at about
midnight, Mr.. Joseph Boucvalt
who is one of the guards at the
parish Jail in this town, went to
the Jail to take his watch, he was
riding horse and remarked that
n man who was close to the Jail
yard was trying to recognize him
and at the same moment fired a
shot at him, the bullet passing
ne ar his head but did not touch
him. Mr.. Boucvalt quickly un-
buttoned his overcoat, reached his
revolver and fired three shots at
the form of the man who dlsap-
reared in the darkness of the night,
but without effect. MIR. Boucvalt
believes the person who assaulted
him is white man, but he was I'M
able TO recognized him on account
of the darkness.
Can it he possible, that we have
in this community persons who are
capable to way-lay our citizens on
orr streets i'm town with view of
committing murder? Especially
after the horrible murder of the
Robertsons. it eeems almost incre-
dible that in a quiet community
like this one that there may be
unknown murderers enjoying full
liberty and availing of the cover of
the night to commit their crimi-
nal work.
If really such a state of affairs
exist in our community, 1t is GER
tainly very deplorable, and our
citizens should Investigate the mat
ter and bring it to light, if We have
murderers, they should be detected
and brought to justice. If it is
done by persons through malice
only with no murderous intention
they should be punished as such
escapades create fear and uneasi-
ness ainoung the families of the
town when left alone after dark
that is really becoming serious,
and if there is any way of investi-
eating this rumor it should be
done, and at once.
