A special from Canton tosthe Chicago
Tribune says that an artist has made q
thorough examination Of the mysterious
window in the Assumption Church, and
the result shows that there is nothing
supernatural about the pictures which
many persons declare to have seen since
last August. The glass is common sheet
gless Of Pittsburg manufacture and the
process of making it leaves film of
smoke which is burned into the glass and
which can only be removed by polishing.
The effect ou the glass is sometimes fam
>tastic, and when viewed from certain
angles and in certain lights variety of
outlines may be seen assuming all shapes
and forms.

associated press lengthy interview on
Mgr. satoli IN which he says: Mgr. Sa-
tolli represents the Pope. Opposition to
him is opposition to the Pope; dlsrespect
to him, criticism of him, is disrespect to,
and criticism OF, the Pope. He was sent
directly by Leo to speak to the arch
bishops assembled in New York the mind
Of Leo on the school question. It is
sheer nonsense to say that he was ad-
mitted by courtesy to the conference. He
told the archbishops, as the official re-
port OF the conferences asserts, that he
spoke in the name Of the Pope and de-
olared the thoughts Of the Pope. The
school question had for more than year
agitated the Church In America. Amid
the din of controversy the appeal to Rome
was loud; the cry went out ceaselessly
that Rome should speak and that nothing
else ceuld establish peace; 90 Rome
resolved to speak and spoke through q
living accredited representative. Those
who were sincere in their sppeal villnov
be silent and Satisfied. The country will
without di@culty see that al attempts
