TIE POPE AND TIE ITALIAN FREE MASoNS
Rome, Aug. 5-The Pope has addressed an encyc-

Tending the Catholic cause mpelled the Pontit to
address 70 the Italian Bishops the letter mentioned
to serve rs an Offset to the new Masonic crusade.
II is likely that this crusade has been undertaken
with view 10 preparing the people for the general
elections which will take place probably In october
The Pope having recently authorized the Catholics TO
exercise their right OF suffrage in the municipal cleo

that authorization will b. extended to the approaching

with the Government In IT, struggles with the Nati

decrease the number Of the antcerical Deputies who
have always formed the majority In the Monte CtoHo

Cremation In Ancient Athens,

Recent excavations at Athens have
added some interesting facts to the
history OF cremation. The graves in
the Ceramicus or ':potters' quarter"
have been opened, and none OF the
bodies contained in them have been
found to have been burned. Burial
without exception was found to have
been the rule. From the poetry and
other objects found in connection
with these graves the date OF them is
placed at about 700 B. C. This
would show that cremation was intro
duced at Athens, then, at $50 B. c.,
as the tumuli found at Vuroa and
Velanidesa and which date from 600
B. G., are filled with burnt bones. AS
showing, however, that burial was
not wholly given up at once at Athens
IS the fact that as late as 500 B. C.
bodies buried and bodies cremated
are found side by side.-Boston Jour-
nal. ..@. aE.-

A Bright Little Girl,

In a parlor car, the father sat on
one side Of the aisle, and the mother
and their S-year-old daughter sat on
the other side. The father was good
looking young man, and there was
nothing about his appearanceto show
that he was in any way connected
with the little girl and her mother
across the aisle. The mother was
readinga novel; the littlegirl was read
q spelling book. The pretty young
woman in the next seat cast sheep
eyes at the father, who looked flatter-,
ed but embarrassed Then the young
woman coughed and the father winked.
