Another New Testament.

It is probable that another version OF
the New Testament will be given to the
world. The old version in what is known
as King JAMES translation of the Bible
still holds its own in the popular mind
and even among preachers it is more in
use than the latest version, while the
different translations by scholars of var
ious sects are not known very much out
side of their own small circles.
A discovery was made not long ago by
Professor HARRIS Of Cambridge, in a
convent on Mount Sinai, of what is
claimed as the Syriac text of the gospels.
Translated from the original Greek, -
is what the ordinary versions claim to be.
1t is well known, however, that the orig
inal text is not at hand. Only copies OF
it exist, any many scholars cay that the
dialect spoken in Palestine when the
books under consideration were written
was mixture of Hebrew and Syriac and
that therefore the gospels were in that
dialect. Professor HARRIS manuscript
bears the appearance of being in that
original text and its translation will be
eagerly looked for by persons interested
IN scriptural discussions.
This may lead to many controversies.
ANY material changes from the accepted
versions will provoke debate, and it seems
as though religious polemics cannot be
conducted without bitterness. Its sug-
gested by Denver paper that perhaps a
further modification of the Anglo-saxon
word hell will be made, and something
even milder and pleasanter than the Greek
hades will be furnished by this new YER
sion.
It may be that "heaven' and s'para-
disc" will also be expunged to give place

Coughing In Church.

What is the reason that, rs a rule,
people in church begin to cough as soon
as the sermon is about to commence?
Also that if one or two persons are seized
with desire to cough, nearly everybody
in the congregation takes up the refrain
and the interruption becomes general?
No matter how quiet church attendants
may have been up to the time some aged
person who has an habitual cough, or a
small boy who is uneasy and coughs just
for something to do, lets out the infectious
sound, no sooner is that keynote given
than a chorus of coughs is heard all over
the place, and continues until the atten-
ton OF the people is sharply attracted,
when it will cease as quickly as it COM
menced.
Sometimes this may be suggested by
the preacher, who begins his discourse by
clearing his throat SO as to speak without
huskiness. And the congregation appear
TO think they can help him by individual
efforts on their own part, and every
cougher in the edifice does his and her
level best to vie with the heaviest of
the lot.
A great deal of this is merely habit and
that imitation which seems natural to
everybody. 1t is an unpleasant thing and
it might be avoided. 1t is much better,
OF course; if the coughing must be done
as an essential part of the service, to get
it all over at one outburst. But why
greet the preacher, as soon as he arises,
with this kind OF an ovation? Why not
start it at the beginning of the ceremonies
and get done with it then?
If everybody who goes to church will
make it a point to guard against this COM
mon and needless habit of cough imita-
ton, necessary reform will take place
and it will be much pleasanter for both
speaker and hearers.

The Coming Committee.

The announcement that Senator Faulk-
ner and the committee of which he is
chairman, appointed to visit the terri
tories, will start on the trip westward in
June, is good news and will greatly en-
courage the people who are anxiously
waiting for deliverance from territorial
disadvantages.
On the other hand it will disgruntle
the obstructionists who are determined
to do all that lies in their power to delay
the boon of statehood to the latest posi-
BILE moment. They viii not like either
Senator Faulkner or his announcement
about the early time of starting.
The resolution to send the committee,
though presented in the first place by
a Republican, Senator Carey, who
deserves credit for his action, is
one of which no true Democrat will dis
approve. Nor should the opponents of
statehood for Utah object if they have
any good grounds for their hostility.
They ought to be glad of an opportunity
for bringing forward their strong reasons
and demonstrating the unfitness OF this
territory for the responsibilities of self
government. The friends of statehood
are jubilant over the movement, and ex-
pect i t wild result in the speedy settle
ment of the Utah question.
The truth is, nothing substantial can
be shown to exist why there should be
any further delay on the Utah matter.
The old, fusty yarns that were spun years
ago, and are now brought out to be strung
in the way, are magnified in the
eyes Of the fabricators, but they
look very slight, threadbare and absurd
to everybody else. and the sooner they are
thrown away the better it will be for all
parties. However, it Will be fine for the
friends of statehood to see them gravely
brought forth once more as though they
were impregnable barriers.
There can be no doubt that the visit will
result in a strong report in favor of Utah S
immediate admission as state in the
Union. And we are of the opinion that
New Mexico and Arizona will be included
in the report with similar recommends
tons. There is no reason that cannot be
successfully answered why they should
not be. The committee ought to meet
with splendid reception, and arrange
ments should be made in good season to
prepare data and arguments proper to be
presented, and for visits to all important
points in the territory.

Rates to the Worlds Fair.

The failure of the railroads in Utah to
come to terms and carry the Sunday
school children from certain points at
what were considered by the people as
reasonable rates, netted considerable
loss to the roads. Many hundreds of
Juveniles were kept at home who would
have been brought here if the rates had
been lower. The railroad companies
know their own business best, but we are
Of the opinion they made mistake.
We mention this again because there
appears to be a discrimination to do a
similar thing with Worlds Fair passen-
gers. 1t is reported that determination
has been reached to charge SO for the
round trip from Utah points. That is
altogether too high and will prevent
many people from undertaking the jour
ney who have thought of going if the
fares were low enough.
1t was not expected that round-trip
ticket from this city to Chicago would cost
more than $50, at the outside. At $40, or
even S45, we believe the roads would
make more money than at the high rate
announced.
The officials may think that few dol
lars more ahead viii not make much diff
ference to folks who have determined to
take the trip. They viii find themselves
in the wrong. Twenty dollars more for
each person in a family does make a big
difference to people who earn their living,
and the rise will cut down the number of
passengers materially.
IL may be that the companies fear they
have not sufficient rolling stock to carry
all that would travel on low fares, so in
tend to make all they can out of those
whom they do carry. But we can scarcely
believe that to be so, and are of the opin-
ion that if the figure named is really
fixed upon, it viii not be maintained very
long. Before the exposition has been
open many weeks it will be found advis-
able TO make reduction. We advise our
friends, for this and many more reasons,
not to be in rush to go to Chicago when
the Worlds fair is first opened to the
public.

Catholic Temperance Congress.

| The HERALD is requested to give pub
licity to temperance feature of the
Worlds Columbian Exposition, and as
this paper is an advocate OF temperance
in all things, the desired information is
hereby impaired.
This is a Catholic movement. The
Catholics claim to ahave originated that
great temperance agitation which was
conducted with so much success many
years ago by Father Matthew, who is
known everywhere as the 'Apostle of
Temperance. :" The Pope is strongly in
favor of the Temperance work done in
America and this effort also has his
sanction.
A Catholic Temperance Congress will
convene in Chicago on Thursday, June
| Sth, at 10 o'clock a. m. for the discussion
and consideration of every phase OF the
temperance question which shall be intro
duced IN the regular order of business.
It is to continue until June 10th. Prepar-
atoms will be made to seat 5000 dele
gates from the various Catholic temper
ance organizations. Papers from them
must be presented on the first day, and
discussions upon them will be had in
three smaller halls which have been en-
J gagged at times which will be specified.
a large mass meeting is to be feature OF
the first days proceedings IN the even
ing.
Every general Union will be entitled to
ten delegates and one additional for each
| five thousand members; state and local
unions will be entitled to five delegates
each and one additional for every one
Thousand members. Each individual So
ciety, whether attached to Union or not,
may have one delegate. and one extra for
every one hundred members or fraction
thereof over one hundred. Every Catho-
lie diocese, vicariate, parish. university,
college and seminary is entitled to repre-
sentation, and clergymen are invited to
attend as delegates. Credentials of dele
gates must be endorsed by the,ordinary
or rector of their respective parishes.
JAMES M. SEAMAN is the manager of
the congress and many other particulars
than these can be had by addressing him
at Holy Name Cathedral, Chicago. We
publish this general information for the
benefit of the temperance societies and
Catholics generally, as THE HERALD is a
friend to every praiseworthy movement
and institution regardless of any special
creed or form of faith.
