THURSDAY.

The board, at its last session, EN-
ployed Judge Heckert to investigate
the circumstances under which Harmon
Ostrander, an aged resident of this
county and an inmate of the county
house, who was visiting relatives at
Burr Oak, fell and broke his hip. The in
jury was alleged to be the result
of defective sidewalk in that village.
The judge was instructed to bring suit
for damages if, in his judgment, he
should deem it advisable. In his re-
port to the board he advises against
bringing such suit, as the circumstan-
ces surrounding the case are such as to
make recovery exceedingly doubtful.
The committee on footing rolls sub
mitted its report, showing the total as
sessed valuation of each township, as

CARDINAL GIBBONS MISSION.
1t May Result In Mgr. satoiifs Elevation
to the Cardinaiits.

LONDON, June 21. - The Standards
Rome correspondent, discussing the great
attentions paid to Cardinal Gibbons at the
Vatican, says;
"The secret history Of all this is rather
curious, Cardinal Gibbons is power in
America, both by his sound doctrine and
his personal Influence, and, with a few ex-
ceptions, held all the Catholic forces there
in his hand. This is not altogether pleas
ing in the highest quarters, especially
when coupled with the fact that tho
American bishops show great spirit and
independence.
"The pope instituted the apostolic dele
CATION at Washington with y view to
checking this independence Cardinal
Gibbons came to voice tho American
bishops disapproval of this step. Mean
time the question has been carefully
studied here The result is that Arch
bishop Satolli will be made a cardinal.
This, together with the special attention
shown to Cardinal Gibbons, must needs
tend to convince him that the prcscnta.
ton of the bishops memorial would ba
both useless and inopportune. 1t Is hoped
that he will carry 1t back to America.
These incidents have caused many per.
sons to think that the election of for.
eign pope is not impossible, and that the
pope himself favors the idea. This also is
not displeasing to the Vatican, because 1t
