CATHOLICS AS LOYAL CITIZENS
They Would Resist the Pope II He
Were Guilty OF an Inlustice.

They Would Resist the Pope II He
Were Guilty OF an Injustice.
The Rev. John ]. Tighe Of Boonton, one Of
the most eloquent pulpit orators OF the do
cese Of Newark. who is well known in Hud-
son County, and especially in Hoboken,
where he was assistant at the Church of Our
Lady of Grace, last night delivered an inter
esting discourse on Catholics as Loyal Clti-
aensS In st. Bridgets Church, Newark.
Father Tighe said in s~ubstance:-
The question has been discussed by Car
dinals Newman and Manning and Mr.. Glad
stone, whether as member OF the Catholic
church, living in this country or any other,
we can be at one and the same time loyal
subjects to our country and faithful subjects
Of the church, from which it follows we
have q two-fold character to maintain
First as that Of a Christian, and second as
that Of q citizen. These two orders are per-
fectly distinct and independent of each
other. They are like two parallel lines rum
ming side by side. We have to divide the
temporal from the spiritual. We have been
branded as enemies to the government of
the countries in which we live and persons
dangerous to society. We have hitherto
proved ourselves law abiding citizens, as has
been amply demonstrated In the troublous
times of this country.
If the Pope himself was guilty Of an IN
justice it would be our duty to resist him,
and should he land on these shores with hos
tile forces, with the intention of resisting the
laws of this country, it would also be our
duty to resist him. The State cannot exist
without laws, and cannot be enforced with
out authority. Civil authority is not from
the free will Of man, but from God. 1t is
not legitimate that the church and State
should be united or that religion should be
separated from society. The Federal Con-
stitution did not desire the union OF church
and State.

Who Refrfended Him.
BOSTON, March 10, 1S94.-Langdon E.
Moore, the notorious ex-burglar and bank
robber who boosted in bis memoirs that he
had never been guilty of using personal
violence, has broken his record in that re-
spect. On Sunday he stabbed J. F. Foster,
inficting a severe, if not q serious wound,
at their apartments in Roxbury. Moore
had been boarding with the Fosters
since last November, and had been constant
" brooding over certain statements made
by detectives in regard to his operations.
His talk was turned continually to that sub
ject until at last it became annoying to
Foster and he intimated the fact to Moore
in as courteous a way as possible.
Then began a series of petty
quarrels that ended in the stabbing
ARRAY. Moore called Foster into his room,
and attacked him with a knife, trying to
stab him in the throat. Mrs. Foster came
to the rescue, and pushed Moore into the cor
ridor, locking the door. Moore called OUT

failed and then ran down stairs and from
the house. He has not yet been captured.
Foster, who has befriended Moore since he
was released from prison, says there was no
quarrel when the assault took place, and
that he gave Moore no cause to attack
him.
Moore's term of imprisonment, if he served
full time, would lave ended March 80, 1898,
but owing to bis good behavior he
was released September 8, 1890, a deduction
in his sentence Of 94 days.

ton by the Venezuelan Govern
ment.


WASHINGTON, March 10. 1s94.-The
American Consul at Maracaibo reports to
the State Department that the Motilone
Indians, who are known as the most barbar-
GUS people on the American Continent, have
resumed atrocities on the River Catatimbo
in Venezuela to such an extent as to drive
civilized persons FROM the rich districts
which have recently been settled, and
no alternative seems to remain but for
the Government to ~inaugurate q war of
determination, showing no quarter without
regard to age or sex. However blood
thirsty this method may appear IN this en-
lightened century, 1t is thought no other will
solve the problem. These savages nave
proven utterly unacceptable to civilizing in
huences, and no recourse is left but to treat
them as ordinary beasts of prey. They have
occasionally disappeared in the depths Of
the forests for q year or two only, to re-
turn with almost incredible fury and
destroy the new settlements that had been
started in their absence, practicing the most
horrible cruelties and leaving no yestige of
the pioneer posts except the mutilated bodies
of their victims. The whole country is now
insisting that the Government shall adopt
drastic measurer to correct the evil. .

LIVES OF FREAKS.
They Are All Well Paid, But They
DO Not Last Long.


The physical lives of most freaks, like
their professional careers, are short. The fat
people usually die of apoplexy, and it is q
good thing, too, for many of them suffer
more thar the public ~imagines. The giants
and dwarfs generally live longer than their
fellow-curiosities; but no matter how good
they may be in their line, they become worse
thar useless as soon as they can no longer
make themselves attractive in appearance.
Only the other day l came across one Of
the most noted professional giants of his day
second only to the great Chang in stature
-limping along Sixth avenue between the
boards of a sandwich advertisement Of a
cheap restaurant. It is only a few months
since one of the leading fat men in the bust
ness fell i'll and lost his flesh. As a result he
is now driving an ice wagon in Brooklyn.
When on the road he received as much as
$50 a week.
So, again, one who some few years back
was accounted the most noted l~ong-haired
woman in the country is now working for
$40 a week addressing wrappers in a mailing
agency on the West Side.-Lippincotts.
