WIDOW OF FEUILLET.
She Had Been Brought Up Royalist
by Her Mother.

by llcr MOJncrs
Valerie Feuillet had been brought up
a Royalist in the provinces by her
mother, Madame Dubois, who belonged
to the most prejudiced ancient regime,
and there are pretty anecdotes Of little
Valerie's childhood, when she was bid
den to kiss lock of blonde hair belong
ing to King Henry V, who
was to be King only in ex-
lie, and when her pretty, dainty,
frail mother going to some ball in
sedan chair, took Valerie with her
as far as the threshold Of the fete and
then sent her home to the old Norman
house where the little girl had first
seen the light, writes 9TH. Benton"
MADAME Blanc in a charming sketch
of "The Romantic Career of Madame
Feuillet," The mother of Madame
Feuillet was own niece to a heroine of
the revolution, Mademoiselle de Ste.
Suzanne, who saved her father from the
guillotine by going alone on horseback
into the midst of the battlefield to ask
the condemned mans pardon of General
Hoche. Monsieur and Madame Dubois
Grecoeur, sometimes in the little city
of st. 10, the ultra-provincial society
of which is described by the author Of
the Memoirs" with an extraordinary
spirit. 1t is very easy to find in these
portraits the types which inspired her
husband with the delightful STORY of
Sibylle," and with the provincial scenes
of "Camors." In fact, there was always
between them kind of involuntary
collaboration.

John w. Foster says that when Ii
Hung Chang was shot at Shimonoseki
he did not mind the pain and danger Of
the wound half so much as he did the
disgrace Of having received bodily in
Jury at the hands of common man. He
felt that this stain upon his person
could never be wiped out, and that he
would never again be able to hold his
head high among his peers. Perhaps
II the Japanese had ennobled the young
mailman before they hanged him, old
Ii would have felt better.

closing, and what is known as the va

the regular school stops the summer
school begins. The summer schools are
widespread and popular. All sorts Of
things are taught in them to all sorts Of
people, but their most numerous and
important patrons are teachers and peo-
pie who haven't much time for self-im-
proyement in the regular school year
About one hundred summer schools will
hold sessions in this country this sum-
mer. They are scattered all over the
land.

MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION
A Novel Situation Growing Out Of a School

Fight
! MINNEAPOLIS, April 16.-rA special
to the Tribune from Winnepeg, Manitoba,

! Nothing since the beginning of the
Catholic school struggle in this country
has created a greater sensation than the
announcement of the Catholic archbishop
that those Catholics who thenceforth
lend their. aid and inflUe ice to those who
would abolish Catholic parochial schools
will be excommunicatt d.
A number of prominent Catholics have
during the struggle of the church ex-
pressed themselves II favor of a national
school system, and among these the an
nouncement has created the greatest con-
sternation. At first it was thought to be
q move on the part of the arch bishop, and
done without the authority of Mgr. Satolli
of the pope, but today it was learned
| that Archbishop Langevin's action is
based OH adyices received from Rome. 1t
is understood that the archbishop last
week received a papal encyclcal on the
question. . This encyclical reviews the
entire school matter, and points out that
the case in the United States and Canada
is not analogous. In Canada and partic-
| ularly in Manitoba, it points out that
Catholic schools we're Guaranteed by
treaty and the constitution. while no such
guarantee was given in the states.
The parochiaI schools belong to Mani
toba Catholics by right of treaty, it de-
clares. and on this ground affirms that the
Catholics. who continue to lend their aid
to these who would take away these rights
shall not be received into communion
with the church. Archbishop Langevin,
speaking on the matter. was most en-
phatic. These were his words:
1.-The hierarchy O. the Catholic church
has spoken. All those who do not follow
the hierarchy are not Catholics. When
