HOW IT STANDS
ATTITUDE Of the Catholic Church
Toward Liquor Sellers.
The Bishops Original Letter and Mgr.
sstoIli's Reply to Those Who Took
Objections to 1.-THE Case
EpitoiDized.

The two elements which the recent
necision of Bishop Watterson, of Co
sumbus, affects moro directly-the tenn
berance societies and the saloonkeepers
Ihaye clothed the real nature OF the
bishops position with much unneces-
sary obscurity. Each element has
given the document in which the bishop
embodied his utterances the interpre-
sation most favorable to its own ideas
and interests.
The now famous letter was written
in the last Lenten season to the clergy
of the bishops diocese. Following are
the bishops words on the subject OF
saloonkeepers and the liquor traffic:
At hereby withdraw my appreciation
from every Catholic society or branch
or division thereof in this diocese that
has liquor dealer or saloonkeeper at
its head or anywhere among its officers,
md | suspend every such society itself
from its rank and privileges as Cath
Ole society until it ceases 10 be so Oil
eered. again publish tbe condition,
without which for some years have
declined to approve of new societies or
new branches Of old organizations IN
this diocese. namely, that no one who
is engaged either as principal or agent
in the manufacture or sale of intoXicat-
ing liquors can be admitted TO member
shin. You viii make this rule known
TO the organizations in your parish and
have it faithfully observed. 1t is sure,
however, to commend itself to every
right-spirited and healthy association
of Catholic gentlemen.
''If there are saloonlIeepers in your
parish who call themselves Catholics
and yet carry on their business in
forbidden and disedifying way, or sell
on Sundays, either openly or under
any sort of guise or disguise, in viola
ton of civil law, and to the hurt of or
der and religion and the scandal of any
part of the community. you Will refuse
them absolution, should they perchance
come to receive the sacramcnts, unless
they promise to cease offending in these
or other ways and to conduct their
business blamelessly if they can, or
get out of it and keep out of it alto
gether."
The matter was formally laid before
Sigr. Satolli, and the apostolic delegate

THE ETHER BICYCLE,

Miles an Hour.


An ether bicycle is the result of the
inventive genius and labors of a Port
land Mel young man named Willard
l. Twombly. He uses ether to gen
crate power instead of water Why?
Because ether is converted into expand
ing gas at e6 degrees. while water re-
quires 2l2 degrees of heat to change n
into steam There is a great saving OF
heat, says the Cyclist- Also, the gas
OF ether is third more powerful than
the steam of water. That is. a pound
of ether converted into gas would oc-
cupy third more space than pound
OF water converted into steam.
The cylinder that runs downward
perpendicularly from under the seat is
the generator. II corresponds to s.

Property Owner Maitland Wants
an Injunction.
Says the Third Track Will Damage
His Property.
First Citizen to Oppose the scheme
in the Courts.

Judge Bischofr. of the Court OF Com
mon Pleas. to-day heard arguments
upon the motion Of Charles G. Bennett.
counsel for Thomas A. Maitland, for an
injunction restraining the Manhattan
Elevated Railroad Company from build
ing a third track upon its Ninth avenue
branch.
Similar motions have before been
made in behalf OF the city. but this is
the first motion made in the courts In
this direction by an abutting property
owner.
Upon the first motion OF the counsel
for the city an injunction was issued.
The injunction was subsequently modi-
fled allowing the road to build the third
track, as it was shown that the Com
plny had the consent of the new Rapid
Transit Commission.
Mr.. Maitland. the plaintiff in this &C.
ton, owns large amount Of real estate
upon Ninth avenue. between Twenty
fourth and Thirtieth streets. and Is the
lessee OF large number OF other houses
in that neighborhood.
The plaintiff brought q number OF
suits against the Manhattan Company
for damages to his property. lie secured
judgments in the lower courts, which
were afterwards confirmed by the Court
OF Appeals.
He alleges that his judgments were
based upon the supposition that the

OF express trains on the third track viii

owns and leases, and also to exclude
