PRESIDENT HYDE of Bowd in

PRESIDENT HYDE of Bowd in - in his talk to the:students on las
 day, spoke of the rapid increase in the Catholic population of thls country, and predicted that the time is not far distant when they will out-number the Protestants. In this connection he de- nounced the position taken by some overtzealous Protestants, who seek to drive Catholics from their religious creed. He believed nothing was gained by such course, and argued that it is the duty of good citizens to welcome new corners. "The right things and the best things" he said, twill be the ones that will be handed down the ages. It will become question of the survival of the fittest."

TIE English, it is reported, arc going into the statue business at the worlds fair. A big salt firm is making re- duced copy of Bartholdrs statue of liberty anu will exhibit it at Chicago next year. 1t will be carved out of solid white salt and will stand twelve feet high, From present appearances there is likely to be a little too much art of this kind at the fair. Statues are fine thing in their way, but when carved out of salt and coal and nodded of butter and silver they may become wearisome objects and make sensible people long for plain exhibits without any artistic trimmings.

The constant aim OF surgery is to re
duco tho rate Of mortality in certain
dangerous operations and with this OBJ
ject experiments going on all the while.
These experiments are often continued
for a long period of time upon the dead
body before being once tried upon a liv-
ing subject. This was the case nth a
new operation which was tried for tho
first time in this city. This operation is
called fymphyseotoIny, and it is said to
be hardly less dangerous than the one
for which it was supposed to bea substi-
tute. 1t was intended to take the place
Of the improved Cpsarian operation.
Symphyseotomy consists Of splitting
the bones Of the pelvis. It was tried
twice in Philadelphia since the first
operation Of the kind In this country,
which took place in New York, and It
was not followed by any disastrous re-
suit. In the record of all the cases here
and In Europe since this operation was
introduced the mortality is lower than
the C~esarian method, and it is hoped it
may be perfected go as to dispense with
the latter altogether. New York Cor.
