THE OPPOSITION TO SAToLLI.-The
Vatican has caused an inquiry to be
made into the motives and the extent
of the opposition to the Satolli mission.
The Pope holds absolutely to his policy
that ecclesiastical affairs in the United
States shall develop themselves along
moderate lines and in a spirit of har-
mony with the institutions of the Uni
ted States. From official sources it is
learned that all the Archbishops who
took part in the New York conference
have affirmed the fourteen scholastic
proposals which Monsignor Satolli
placed before them in the name Of the
Pope.

the Attractions.
Eastern Ohio has no event that Is
looked forward to with more interest
than the Belmont County Harvest Home
picnic.
Inaugurated nine years ago as local
affair, the managers have made them
immensely popular by the character OF
the entertainment. No games Of chance,
or any of the usual catch-penny devices
found so often on picnic and FAIR
grounds Of the country, are allowed and
there IS no dancing to offend those who
are opposed to that au usement. III IS a
fact worthy of note, that persons under
the influence OF liquor have not been
seen on the grounds. The attractions
are fine grove, good music and little
speech making.
The grove is q natural one, not PARK
but one Of the most beautiful places to
spend a day tout In the WOODS" that
can be found in the country. 1t Is To-
Gated upon the lands OF Hon. Alfred

maple trees, lays as nearly level as can
be in q billy country like this, and Is
well supplied with good water. The
music this season will be by vocal
ouartette from Hopedale, O., Mr.. G. A.
House, OF this city. will furnish the or
gan, and by the New Athens Carousal
Band.
There will be brief speeches by Mr..
A. A. Giffen, Of Powhatan, a grand
Young orator, one OF Belmont county's
own boys; Rev. S. r. Frazier, Phi. D., Of
Youngstown, an old st. ClairsVille boy,
a polished speaker, who never fails TO
entertain. Do not fail to hear him.
Col. w. w. Arnett and Col. Robert
White, of this city, will go out and give
addresses.
Mr.. J. II. Denham, manager OF the
Bloomingdale Jersey Dairy, just west
OF Bridgeport, and well known In this
city, is the president aud general man
ager, a position he has assumed since
the picnic was inaugurated niue years
ago. He works for the success OF the
picnic.
This is a good chance for the people
Of the city 10 spend day in the WOODS;
is Just a good drive out from Wheeling,
or you can get out by either B. 81 0. or

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA,
'Sumptuous Preparations for Their Dir
ners Always in Progress.

ners Always in Progress.
The dinners which Antony and
Cleopatra gave in Alexandria seem to
have been almost uurivaled for pro-
fusion. A certain Phildas, who had
some acquaintance with the chief
cook, was invited by him to come and
see the sumptuous preparations; and
his account of what he saw has been
handed down to posterity.
In the kitchen he admired the pro-
digious variety of all things; and, see
ing eight wild boars being roasted
whole before huge fires which glowed
like furnaces, he naturally remarked:
Surely you have large company to-
day.! The cook laughed at his simple
ity. 'No," he said, covers are laid
only for twelve. but every dish must
be served up just roasted to turn. If
it is but single minute overdone or
underdone it is spoiled. Now it may
be that Antony viii dine this moment;
maybe an hour hence; he may call for
wine, or begin to talk. and put it off;
SO that it is not one, but several din
ners which must be held in readiness,
since it is impossible to know when
Antony will give the order" Which
reminds us of the fowls Napole-
on's cook was obliged to keep
on the spit. in order that one might
always be served up when his capri
cious master chose to dine.-All the
Year Round.
