A TORY VIEW OF 1T,
The New Irish Crusade as Seen From
Another Standpoint.

From the Western Mall
There is to be a new Irish crusade Both
the Redmonds and all their allies and asso-
ciates have soemnly vowed that Great
Britain shall have no rest if Ireland cannot
have home rule. If Erin cannot be per-
mitted to set up an Independent parliament
she can make herself nuisance. and she is
to do it forthwith if the Parnelites are to be
her guides. Mr.. Gladstone may talk about
the Newcastle program, and the Welsh
men may babble of disestablishment and
disendowment, but there is to be no chance
of getting on with either the one or the
other even for those who want them. Glad
stOnians equally with tories. English home
rulers equally with liberal unionists. have
to be stumped in all attempts to get the
house of commons to do the work II was
designed to do, and exists to do. Awkward
delay will be. we almost wish Mr.. Red
mond may be successful in inducing Ireland
to adopt his advice. If he is, there will be
an utter end of Irish home rule for ever
and for ever.

BUST OF SATOLLI UNVEILED.
Honor Paid to the Pope Through His
Delegate mt Hoboken.

Deie8Ote 0t hOOOken.
A marble bust of the apostolic delegate
Mgr. Satolli. was unveiled before q congre-
cation that filled the Church of Our Lady
of Grace in Hoboken, n. j., to the doors
yesterday afternoon. The services were
impressive, and the interest in the event
was increased by the references which
Father Corrigan made in his address to
the mission of the papal delegate and the
America.
Before the ceremonies at the church
were begun. there was a parade Of uni
formed Catholic societies from Hoboken,
New York. Brooklyn and Paterson. Sew
eral thousand men and half a dozen bands
were in line. The church ceremonies were
begun at $3.50 p. m. Among the invited
guests were the city officials and promi-
nent laymen. Bishop Wigger was invited.
but did not attend.
The statue of Satolli was covered by the
Stars and Stripes when the people as
sembled in the church. 1t is of pure white
Carrara marble. and is the work of Luzi,
an Italian sculptor. 1t is the first statue
of Satolli placed in a church in this coun-
try.
The services were begun with national
airs on the organ. The Very Rev. Dean
McNulty of Paterson pulled the cord
which allowed the draperies to fall away,
revealing the features of Mgr. Satolli in
chorus. Praise We the Father" and in
the absence of Father Moran of Brooklyn,
who was ill., Father Corrigan delivered the
principal address. He spoke of the large
audience which had assembled, and of its
cosmopolitan character. He said that 1t
reflected the spirit of tolerance, which rem
dered such an audience possible only in the
United States. He continued:
SatOlIi's LabOrs I'm America.
There is a golden chain that binds u.s.
and that is an honor to us as brothers
and Christians, for We come here to honor
a man whose gifts of head and heart have
enlightened the human race, and whose
marvellous labors the head of Christ's
church have extorted the admiration Of
men of all sects and of all creeds. We
honor Leo XIII in honoring one who re-
fleets his own great Christian mind. who
comes as his amba ssador with tidings Of
great joy to our shores; tidingh Of peace
and good will to all men. He comes from
an ancient monarchy to the great republic
He sees no more the war clouds of Europe.
nor does he hear the ceaseless tread of
millions of its armed men. He finds here
a new order of things; seventy millions
of people and no standing army to enforce
the law which guarantees liberty to every
man. He finds here a new paradise III
you will, where men enjoy that liberty, fra
ternity, and equality. for which they strug-
gled in Europe in vain"
When Father Corrigan finished speaking
the organ pealed forth the strains Of The
Star Spangled Banner and the choir sang
the anthem. The ceremonies closed with a
papal blessing pronounced by Father Corri-
gan, and the benediction by Father Hen
messy Of Jersey City.

OUR HAND WRITING.
Expert Jackson Declares That 1t
Is Yearly Growing Worse.

Expert jackson Declares That 1t
Is Yearly Growing Worse.
London Daily News.
Is it true that handwriting is growing
worse and worse all the world over?
This is the statement of Mr.. Jackson in
his Theory and Practice of Handwrit-
ing" Official reports seem to confirm
MIR. Jackson'S belief. On the other
hand, persons of considerable expert
ence in reading literary manuscripts
and examination papers of the higher
orders can dardly agree with him.
s AS a rule the MSS. of novels and of
examination papers are legible and even
rather pleasing. The exceptions are
scarcely per cent in examination pa
pers; in novels an author foolishly
sends in mere rough draft, with era
sions and additions tackled on by pins or
waste ends of postage-stamp paper.
But these examples of handwriting are
the work, except as regards many nov
els, of rather highly educated persons,
and they throw no light on the hands of
people far from literacy.
The letters of servant girls and of
other people without aspirations to
culture are often penned in excellent
and characteristic hands, and, on the
whole, we do not think that the age
writes i'll, as general rule. Naturally,
people who have to write great quanti-
ties of copy" for the press or for other
purposes find their hands, If Roman and
fine at first, gradually disappearing in
scrawl due to fatigue. A number of
popular and prolific authors are suffer
ing from writers cramp," and their
hands must have been degeuerating in
the progress of the malady.
To do the work with the minimum of
fatigue is the authors object. and Ger.
tainly it seems as if the men and women
with the most slovenly hands suffer
least from writer's cramp. Mr.. Jack
son, however, thinks that writing is
very bad, that its badness is due to bad
teaching, promiscuouSly selected models
(he prefers examples OIL the blackboard
to headlines), and, above all, the
error is in sloping as opposed to perpen-
dicular or vertical writing. The natu-
raj man, he thinks, sits upright to the
work, and would write perpendiculaIly
but for the prevalence of sloping copies.
From these comes the habit of sprawl
ing sideways at the desk, and that habit
is bad for the eyes, bad for the spine,
bad for discipline in school (as it facili-
handwriting. The slope keeps on run
ming down hill till it loses itself in the
indecipherable scrawl.
History proves. Mr.. Jackson thinks,
that all writing was originally vertical.
We do not see Egyptian hieroglyphs on
the slope; they are drawn upright, and
so are the more elaborate pictures OF
the Aztec "chrift," of the Mayas, of
Easter Island, the Sanscrit hand,
the Ph9nician (witneSS the
Moabite stone), the Greek, wheth-
er Oh inscriptions OH stone,
on vases or in writing on papyr: but
not, we think, in the ItaIic hand copied
from the writing of Musurus in the edi-
lions of AlduS. The Italic hand is on a
slope $500. MI. Jackson says that all
writing in Europe was vertical, up
right, till the age of Elizabeth. The AL
dine texts, i'll Italics, seems to us to sug
gest doubt on this point.

A HAPPY FAMILY.
A Rich Widow Who Has a Whole
Menagerie OF Pets.

Va i Gus
San Francisco Examiner.
Mrs. Robert Johnson has 200 cats, and
each of them has pedigree that ex-
tends back over many generations.
AS Mrs. johnson has several millions
of dollars and is widow, her patrician
cats live in style BETTING their pedi-
grees.
They live at Buena Vista, Mrs. John
sons country mansion near Sonoma.
CAL, and it takes three servants to care
for the pussies. Every one of these
cats is a real Angora, and the most eX
acting part of the duties of the three
Japanese who look after them is to see
that no wandering nighthawk of a COM
mon fence-haunting, slumberdisturb
ing Tom or Tabby shall gain entrance to
this feline paradise. There are fences
high and tight to keep these out and to
restrain any vagrant tendencies that
may have descended to any of these
petted beauties from some outcast an
cestor, for. as with most people of gen.
tie blood, somewhere the fair line of an
cestry runs into marauders, products,
perhaps, of the wild time in which they
lived.
There are about 5000 acres in the
grounds about Buena Vista, and the res
idence stands in the center of ten acres
of flower pots and lawns. The house is
reached by winding avenue, shaded
with ornamental trees, and is seen to
stand on the crest of sloping knoll.
Seen from the veranda the beds of flow
ers and velvety lawns vie with Golden
Gate park ON small scale. Here and
there are built short flights of stairs
leading down to tiny lakes, on which
snowy swans and ducks diSporG them
selves in common tenantcy with myr-
aids of fancy fish. Rustic bridges span
many little brooks, and inviting seats
abound beneath sturdy oaks and tower
ing eucalypti. There is also pond of
warm mineral water, fringed with a
thicket of bamboo, and the fragrance
from lemon and orange trees.
Such are the surroundings in which
these beautiful cats live in luxury.
Besides the cats Mrs. johnson has a
lot of other pets. There are parrots
from all over the world. CockatOoS and
parOquets perch on high stands or fly
about the aviary with mad glee until
the place is feathered pandem onium.
Then in another huge cage are large
number of canary birds, who sing to
each other all the while. Outside the
mansion are lot of kennels in which
dwell some very we'll known prize-w win
ners among dogs. These dogs are
smooth or woOlly. large or tiny, and
have two keepers in charge of them.
Then there are a lot of Japanese
donkeys, and some splendid specimens
of HOlStein cattle and Jersey cows with
soft eyes. A hundred horses and mares
