as these gain no credence among we'll in
formed Catholics for they know that the
Pope is not engaged in the patronage
business and that the high Office of car
'dinal is not created for the purpose OF
rewarding anyone Fortunately for the
Church and Christianity these high Of
iciale have seldom, indeed, been the
subject of political barter. Race preju-
dice has at times crept into the appoint
ment of cardinals but never bias the
Office been considered one Of personal
reward. Experience has shown, too,
that the Church is too Catholic to brook
national or race feeling. The darkest
period in the. history Of the Church
is the period during which the
so-called French Popes lived at Avignon.
Rome is the ordained home of the Popes
and in no other place can they live in
peace and prosperity.
It is doubtless to insure against a
repetition of such period that the Sa-
cred College is always composed of a
majority of Italian cardinals. To. those
who are not Catholics and especially to
American Non Catholics this fact is in
applicable. Americans are apt to judge
the usefulness of a body by it's repre-
sentative character. In one sense the
college of cardinals is representative, in
another it is not. It represents at all
times the doctrines and views of the
Church for it is the creature of the SUI
preme temporal power in the Church,
but it does not represent race, political
faith, or mere members, for with such
questions the Catholic Church is not
concerned. The Sacred College when
complete is composed of seventy mem
bers but at present there are but sixty
three, thirty four of whom are Italians and
twenty-nine of other nationalities and of
the latter six are French, six Germans,
five Spaniards, four Austrians, two
Portuguese, one English, one IRISH, one
Belgian, one American, one Canadian
and one Australian. A European CORE
spondent of the New York Sun re-
ports that at the next consistory seven
more cardinals are to be appointed. This
is more than improbable as the college
has seldom contained at one time it's full
number and for obvious reasons. For
instance the interests Of the Church
might demand at any time the appoint
ment Of cardinal in certain locality,
which could not be done in case the
college was composed of the full number.
Again in case of mooted question aris-
ing in the college the matter could be
easily settled by the appoint ment OF new
members whose views would be those of
the ruling pontiif, just as the king Of
England has in times past overcome an
adverse majority in the House of Lords
by the appointment of new lords. :
1t can readily be seen then that news
paper reports in regard to the appointment
of new cardinals is the merest conjecture
and although harmless, Catholics should
not be misled into giving them credence.
Doubtless the great energy, ability and
liberal views of such men as9 Archbishop
Ireland make deep impression on Leo
XIII but there might be other consider
atoms which would be equally weighty
in determining the appointment of
cardinal. At all events We venture to say
that seven new cardinals will not be ap.
pointed in the near future.

What They Say.


Penny Press: An Investigation of the
management of the waterworks depart
ment will not do any harm. The Board
Of Trade might also undertake an investi-
CATION of the legal expenses of the Park
Commission.
Tribune: So long as there is any
doubt that vitrifed brick pavement will
answer for Nicollet avenue it is best to
delay undertaking the work of repaving.
Nicollet avenue is an important street
and it will not do to make radical mis-.
take in providing it with 70 adway.
Globe: Gov. Nelson is pointing with
pride to some things that the legislature
OF 1893 did. He is maintaining discreet
silence as to some things that legislature
did not do. He does not mention, fol
instance, the defeat Of the bill to place
upon the tax list the unsold land grant.
cd to railroad companies, nor does he
mention the very peculiar methods used
to defeat the passage of that measure
Another bill that he does not make men.
ton of was that which proposed to put
the surveyors of logs on salary OF S. O0(
year, in place of allowing them fees,
which brought into their pockets from
$4,000 to $4,000 annually.
The Daily Times: There now seems
strong probability that the much need
ed paving of Nicollet avenue will be post
poned to next year. The whole business
has been middle that does not reflect
very creditably upon the business judg
ment and capacity of the city council
The condition of the principal business
avenue of the city has been public dis.
grace for two or three years. The gen.
eral depression in business has made the
people patient with q nuisance, which
they would not have tolerated in ordi
nary times. In the meantime-at least
'or year past-the council has pretend
ed to be acquiring reliable data as to the
relative merits Of the various kinds ol
paving material. During the past yea1
two committees of members of the coun.
Gil have visited number of cities with 6
view to acquiring information upo1
which to base an intelligent judgment q.
to the best paving for Minneapolis
After expanding a thousand dollars ane
more of the Taxpayers money on these
junkets, the council was apparently az
incapable of coming to definite conclu
sion as before. Then the choice of pave
ment was left to vote of the property
owners along the portion of the avenue
which it was proposed to i'm
prove, and large majority declared IL
favor of vitrifed brick. This was SUD
posed to be final-the council adopted i
as such, and the paving OF Nicollet av
enue with brick was ordered and tn,
contract let. Now report has reached
the council from Chicago that the bricl
pavements laid in that city are failure
that the brick is crumbling after few
months use. and in a year or two al
farthest will have to be replaced
Alarmed at this unfavorable report
which does not seem to be altogether
authentic, the council has called q hal,
in the work on Nicollet avenue, and it il
given out that in all probability the re-
paving Of the street will be postponed e
next season. !.

An unusually touching and pathetic:
case of restitution has come to light in
the city of Washington. Robert Tyler
Jones, grandson of President Tyler,
and the first male infant born IN the
White House, has been found living in
an ATTIC on the outskirts of the city suffer
ing for the necessaries of life.' With him
are an invalid wife and little baby. His
uncle, John Tyler, Jr., who was son Of
the president, was stricken with paral-
yeis in July, 1887. He had held an Of
fee Of special witness to certify to the
destruction of cancelled currency. The
nephew came to Washington to nurse
him and was appointed his alternate dur
ing President Cleveland's first admin
istration. Every month he divided his
salary into two equal parts, one OF
which he placed in an envelope and sent
to his helpless uncle. This he did for
six years without intermiasion. During
Mr.. Harrison's administration an at
tempt was made to GUST him because he
was Confederate soldier, but it was un-
successful. The last congress, however,
passed law that no substitute would I
hereafter be employed in any depart
ment, and this resulted in his loss Of Of
fetal position and consequent distress.
The case has been taken up ~ the
Southern Relief Society.

THE oDoR OF PLANTS.
rt Comes From the Heart of the Flower
Usually, Sometimes From the Leaves

rt Comes From the Heart OF the Flower
Usually, Sometimes From the Leaves
The various delightful or disagreeable
odors of tho plant family usually reside
in the flower itself, thongh in some
species the scat is in the leaves and stem
or even III tho root In either case the
odor is due to the presence of volatile
essential oils, usually of resinous ma
ture. The number of these oils is un-
known, and their nature is SO complex
that even slight variation in tho tenn
perature or in the quantity of light
falling upon them is sufficient to cause
n Encouragement of their component OIL
ements, resulting, so far as the smell is
concerned at least, in an entirely differ
ent compound.
Prophylic ether, which is an exam
pie of these unstable compounds, can,
by slightly different arrangement Of
its elements, be made to yield either tho
odor Of pineapples or that of decaying
fish. The reason, therefore, why each
species and kind of n plant has differ
ent odor is the ease with which one per
:ume may be transformed into another.
Sufficient cause Tor such transition is
often found in the mode Of life of each
variety Of plant aud the difference in
their chemical constitution.
Whatever in any way affects the life
or growth of plant rapidly shows it's
affect upon the flower and its perfume.
The nature of the soil and its humidi-
ty. the variation Of temperature or the
intensity Of the sunlight will sooner or
later transform the entire nature of O
plant, for, as has been fully shown
above, one plant, in order to produce
exactly the same perfume as another,
must not only be of the same species,
but live il the same elements, earth,
Dir, etc. 1t must also absorb similar
amount of light and breathe the same,
which would Of course. necessitate
leaves similar in size, color and shape.

All wrosS 20 ne Early 20 Dinner, but
Right 10 30 Late.

Tho English have fashion Of not u.s.
ing dinner cards to indicate where tho
guests aro to sit. This involves some
trouble and prcsupposes an excellent
memory on the part of the hostess but
1t Is certainly distinctive and elegant,
says Harpor's Bazaar, authority for tho
following:
Dinners are not ms long ns they were,
and too many courses are considered n
vulgarity. The hours vary. AS wo nre
following carefully in the lead of our
English cousins, whose social customs
seem to be considered tho proper thing,
particularly among the ultra fashiona-
bio sot, wo now dine at z, or half past
2, or even 8, whereas q few years ago
was the hour most commonly observed.
These late dinners mean tea at 3 o'clock.
J 1t is all right to be five minutes late
to dinner, but all wrong to be too early.
Nothing is more upsetting to hostess
who has perhaps been ont all the after
noon and who has been belated about
her dressing, to be told while she is in
the midst Of her toilet that some of her
guests have arrived. 1t means hurrying
into her gown and rushing down stairs,
and it takes away all of the repose in
manner or in feeling which is SO essen.
tial TO oue's happiness.
When tho ladies leave the dining
room, the gentlemen rise to let them
pass, and pretty German custom is for
each lady to courtesy to the gentleman
who sat next her. Another (French)
custom is for the gentlemen to escort
the ladies into the drawing room, stand
and talk few moments and then return
to their cigars.
In England there arc smoking rooms
IN which the gentlemen gather and
where they arc provided with smoking
Jackets, carefully removing their dress
coats, so that when they return to the
drawing room they will not carry the
odor Of tobacco. On the other hand,
many English women smoke cigarettes,
which are served to them after dinner.

The Donkey Vanished.

In general we may say that the dom
keys belong to q vanishing state of hu,
man culture, TO the time before carriage
ways existed. Now that civilization
goes on wheels they seem likely to have
an ever decreasing value. A century
ago they were almost everywhere in
common use. At the present time there
are probably millions of people i'll tho
United States to whom the animal is
known only by description. In word,
the creature marks a stage in the de-
velopment of our industries which is
passing away as rapidly as that in which
the spinning wheel and the hand loom
played part, Professor N. S. Shaler
