BISHOP BEcKERs VISIT.
IL is Possible That He May BE Made
An Archbishop While in Rome.
From the Baltimore sur

From the Baltimore sun.
Washington, FEB. 24-The departure OF
Right Rev Thomas A. Becker, u. D.,
bishop OF Savannah. for Rome. about ten
days ago. has given rise 10 speculation in
clerical circles in this part Of the country.
Although Bishop Becker was consecrated
tWenty-seven years ago. he has never paid
his respects to the pope in person, while,
as a rule, the bishops are required TO so
TO Rome at least once every ten years for
this purpose For this reason alone Bishop
Becker's visit would cause much com
ment, but il is also the opinion Of a num-
Der Of the clergy that on his return from
Rome new archIepiscopal pro-
vince will be created out OF
the province Of Baltimore and
the archbishopric. with his seat ia savan-
nah. At the last meeting of the bishops OF
the Baltimore province. which was held in
Savannah. this subject was preached and
received favorable comments from those
present Bishop Becker belongs TO the
senior class OF the Hierarchy OF the Catho-
Tic church, having been created a bishop
at the same time that Cardinal Gibbons
received his inter.
The prominence which he has attained in
the hierarchy and the growing importance
Of his diocese has given rise to the expecta-
tons OF those interested that another slice
will be clipped of OF the see Of Baltimore
and Bishop Becker will be promoted The
province Of Baltimore originally included
all the states in the union. and remained
undivided until 1876 Since that time il has
been sub-divided a number of times, until
now there appertains 70 1t only Mary
land, Virginia, West Virginia, Georgia,
North and South Carolina, Florida and
Delaware
It is expected that If the province OF sa-
vannah is created It will include as its suf-
fragan sees those OF Charleston, S. &C.
Wilmington, n. c.. and St. Augustine,
Fla. This would leave to the Baltimore
archdiocese only those OF Wilmington,
Del, Richmond, Va, and Wheeling, w.
Va. The fact Of Bishop Becker's long as
ISOLATION with Cardinal Gibbons makes it
very probable that the pope wiz see hit to
elevate him TO the arbishopric.

40 FORMAL WORDS NECESSARY.
In Naming An Executor in a VIII.


An interesting question In connection
with wills came Up before Judge Ferrnl
IN the court Of ordinary yesterday. In the
viii OF Martin ". Sulter. the testatOr
neglected to name an executor IN the Legal
phraseology. but used these words: My
wife being bound under this instrument
% manage this property In the interest
Of herself and our children"
AR r. r Richards. who represented
the VIII. held that his was sufficient
declaration Of the fact that the testatOr
desired his wife 20 be his eXecutrix. There
was no contest in the case, and the only
question was as TO whether on account
Of the manner in which the viii was
drawn Mrs. suffer should be required
publish a citation for thirty days, take out
.etrers of admins tratiOn with the VIII an
n-xed and then give bonds in double the
amount Of the properly, or whether she
could take charge OF the estate as eX-
ecutrix under this viii.
Judge FerriI said in all his experience
as ordinary. ne had never had just such
d case before. Mr Richards in his state
msnts with regard to the matter quoted
the language Of the code, which, in sec
ton 2 i59, is as follows: NO formal
words are necessary 10 the appointment
of an executor Any expression Of conf
dence by the test0tOr, and the desire that
such an one shall carry into effect his
wishes viii AMOUNT to an appointment
as executor" Mr. Richards also quoted
several prominent authorities on the sub
ject. and Judge Ferrill took his view
Of the law. Mrs. Suffer then qualified as
executrix and will take charge Of the
property as such Ii amounts to between
$4,000 and $1,000, and is left to Mrs. Sui
ter and her children.

if there was disappointment, it quickly
d.ssipate4. lie. DOrres first appearance
was extremely pleasing, and she had been
before the footlights but few minutes
when the audience was captiVated. She
made an ideal "Carme n." possessing all OF
the vivaclty and charm that Rlzet could
have Imagined in his central figure. Her

that Carmen might wen have been wrA

scenes in the third and fourth acts Nile
Dorre was FIRE ana passion incarnate, and
her death scene was worthy of any ira

worthily, shared the honors with Mile
Dorre. Throughout the opera his Don
Jose was delightful, and at the end be-
came powerful. In the scene with Car
/ men, at the end OF the lnlru act, MS
fury was magnihccp, and thrilling and
in dealing the fatal blow upon the tickle
beauty, his rage became frenzy. And as
a tenor, well as an actor, Mr.. Clarke
had the audience with him. His voice
may not range as high as others, but il
reaches high enough. 1t is a sympathetic
voice, admirably trained and suited to
opera of the Carmen" class.
Miss Nina Berdni-Humphrys is a fav-
orite in this city from former pleasant ac-

I the season before; therefore it was Ike
renewing old acquaintance to see her
before the footlights last night. The part

She Raises Tobacco.

A prominent Louisville tobacco mer.
chant registered at the st. James said to
a Iribune reporter:
lone Of the most picturesque figures
seer OF the tobacco breaks at the Falls
City last week was Mrs. l.. j. Cutsin.
ger, who sold a crop Of excellent DUAL.
lty at the New Enterprise warehouse.
Mrs. Cutsinger is a widow from Spencer
county and comes to the city each fall
or winter to make her own sales. She
talks on the subject of tobacco as intel.
llgently as the average man.
II am informed" continued the
Louisville gentleman, that this won.
an plants, cnltivates and harvests her
own crop with the assistance of a son
about ii years of age. She knows as
much about the proper carr of the crop
from the time the seed is sown to the
cutting of the stalk as the men who
come on the breaks from day to day.
With al! this. though, she is in every
sense a woman, not ever the least mas
culine in her tastes. Her case is one
which forcibly illustrates what we can
DO If we are only compelled to. Ordi.
narlly a m would give up in de.
spair If told she must cultivate a crop
OF tobacco. '-Cincinnati Tribune.

SILVER IN PENNSYLVANIA,

Under the title. THE Battle of the
Standards" the Philadelphia Record
notes the progress of the silver cause
among Pennsylvania Republicans. and
it broadly divides the party into two
camps, n which it declares is for free
silver coinage Internationally. at Is to
/: the other for free coinage by inter-
national agreement. 1t notes as a sig
nificant sign of the times the debate
for absolute free coinage in this coun-
try at Is to l, before the Republican
members Of the Legislature. in which
Charles H. Clark. editor of The Manu-
facturer. and backed by the greater
number of the members of the Manu-
%facturers' Club. will take the affirma-
tive, and Charles Emory Smith of the
Philadelphia Press will reply. The fact
that a great interest was taken in this
debate is nightly encouraging to the
friends OF silver: indeed, that there is
such a debate in Pennsylvania is a
most encouraging circumstance: for
with a full hearing silver men have no
anxiety about the triumph of their
cause.
We wish we could trust the Record
when it undertakes to class the Re-
publicans of Pennsylvania as all for
silver. differing only as to whether this
country should go it alone or RELY on
international agreement. The fact that
the chief party papers oppose silver is
against that view. The Records sneer-
ing reference to the help it claims the
Republicans OF Pennsylvania are civ
ing to the bonanza miners of the
Rocky mountains. and its REPEATED
harplngs on ''hOnest money! and
sound CURRENCY" together with it's
argument that Republicans cannot be
trusted to make for honesty. but that
IN Democracy is the only hope for
honest money all point to the one
fact. that the Recon is not fairly re-
porting the case. but it is merely anx-
lous to make q partisan point. But
that sort of point cuts the throat of
Democracy in the West and South, It
also shows that Eastern Republicans
are more open to conviction t 0 sound
views regarding silver than are East
ern Democrats.-Salt Lake Tribune.

Grand Rapids Herald.
The best business sense of this cOun-
try and of most foreign countries, is
enlisted in favor of the international
b~imetallism. This is the goal toward
which all should aim. Premature ac-
tion by the United States in shoulder
ing the whole burden of sustaining the
value Of silver through the adoption Of
free and unlimited coinage would in all
likelihood postpone international action.
Minneapolis Tribune.
Bimetallism is evidently growing in
favor in Europe. A number of conspic-
uOus and influential statesmen have de-
clared themselves as ready to entertain
the proposition for a fixed ratio be-
tween the two metals among the great
powers. 1t would seem that under
these conditions it should not be diff
cult to arrive at an understanding
among the principal nations on this
subject. especially as much progress in
the right direction has lately been
made in England.-New York Mail
