DIR. BRi0os' TRIAL.
Consideration of the finh Charge Assisss
tho Alleged Mepettc.

NEW YORK. Dec. DIR. Birch resumed
his argument in tho Briggs case to-day, the
fifth charge being taken up. In this Briggs
Is accused Of teaching that Moses 10 nos
the author of the Pentateuch, which teach
ing is contrary to the essential doctrines
of the standard of the church. A formid-
able array Of scripture edicts was adduced
in the printed charges to show the falsity
of Briggs theory. DIR. Birch said tho only
authority ON tho authorship Of the Pents-
te,ich was the Bible itself. II Moses did
not write the Pcntaieuch Christ himself 10
dishonest. When Birch finished Colonel
McCook took the cudgei mud announced
his intention to prove the heresy OF the
theories Briggs expounded In his inaugural
address, by showing their effect upon
practical Christianity. He had not con-

OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
An Address Before the Archbishops'
Meeting In New York.

Meeting In New York.
ST. Louis. Dec. Tho following 10 .
synopsis Of tho address OF Mgr. Satolli
delivered at o recent meeting OF tho arch
bishops in New York on the subject OF set
tlng tho school question and having re'
ligious education:
''0n the Catholic church is vested the
divine right of instructions to the young
In 50 far rs theirs is the kingdom OF
heaven. Hence, absolutely and univcr'
81 lily speaking, there is no repuRnancc IN
the young learning the first elements ana
higher branches In tho public schools
controlled by tho state. For the
rest. the provisions OF tho coun-
Gil Of Baltimore arc yet in force'
and in q general way will remain so.
United with the duty Of procuring truly
Christian and Catholic education for their
offspring, are tho rights of parents which
no civil law or authority can violate or
weaken. The Catholic church In general.
md especially the holy see. desires that
by joint act of the civil and ecciesiasti-
cal authorities there should be public
school in every state, but the Catholic
church shrinks from those features OF
public schools which are opposed to the
truth Of Christianity.
''Long since the holy lee dccrccd parish
schools and other institutions under the
direction of tho bishops opportunc and
necessary. from the fact that IL held that
certain public schools have within them
selves n proximate danger 10 faith and
morals because Of the purely secular cdt-
cation given. because of tho teachers
chosen discriminatory from the sects aud
because no law prevents them from work
ing ruin to the youth. Likewise certain
corruption seems To impcnd from the fact
that children of both sexes are brought
together in the same room for lessons.
Wherefore II IL he clear in given local
| ity that the above named dangers disap-
pear, then Il is lawful for Catholic parents
to send their children to these schools
provided the parents themselves do not
neglect their most serious duty and pas
tors put forth every cfTorr to instruct the
children and train them in all that per
tains 10 Catholic worship and life. II will
he well therefore to establish weekly
classes in the Catechisn, which all chill
dren of the parish should attend. IL Is
greatly to be- desired and II will be most
happy arrangement II the bishops agree
with the civil authorities or with members
of the school board to conduct tho school
with mutual attention aud due consider q.
tion for their respective rights"

The STATE ALLIANCE BAND

Last August. they presenter. through

public would not perhaps feel the in

Mr., HULMAN's SIGNIFICANT RBs.
oLUTIoE.-The most notable incl
dent, perhaps, IN the proceedings
OF Congress during tie present
tension was the presentation by MIR
Holman Of Indiana of a resolution
against all sorts or subsidies which
was passed by majority Of 900 to
40. The favor shown by the
House to Mr.. HoImsn's proposal
indicates that none of the jobs OF a
subsidy character now urged upon
Congress are likely to be author
lied during the present eession.
Mr. Holman's proposition is that
the granting of subsId es, or boun'
ties in money, public lands, bonds
or by the endorsement Of bonds,
TO promote special private indus
tries or enterprises, without regard
to the constitution, is unjust impos
lite 0nd in conflict with the spirit
OF republican institutions. Mr.
Holman's resolution hints at the
condition Of the federal treasury,
intimRting that II does not contain
funds enough to warrant a lavish
expenditure. 1t also suggests that
nothing ought to be appropriated
for except what il necessary to
carry on The teveral departments,
frugally, efficiently and honestly
administered. As chairman Of the
committee on appropriations Mr..
Holmsn's action in the premises
lie significant. 1t seems TO indi-
cate that he is going TO try to save
some Of the peoples money and
wishes to have members pledged
to support him.
