In its summary it says:
"Ohio is for Mckinley, and Indiana

New York hardly knows where she

ROME, Jan. 2s.--The papal enoyclical
addressed to the American episcopate
has been made public here In the doou-
ment the pope recalls the fact that he
associated himself with the celebration
Of the fourth centenary Of the discov-
cry Of America, the evangelization of
which country was the first care Of Co.
lumbus, which evangelization was real
ICED by tn, Franciscan and Dominican
MONKS and the Jesuit fathers.
After pointing out that the first Cath
olio bishop in America was a great
friend Of George Washington, father of
his country, the pope shows how the
episcopal councils, aided by the breadth
Of view and the equity of American
laws, assured the development of Cath.
olio institutions
It was to contribute still more to this
development that the pope founded the
univei sity at Washington, for IL was of
Importance that Catholics should be in
the front rank in sciences, even modern
sciences, provided they were at one
with integrity and faith. To this end
his holiness exhorts the bishops to do
all in their power to encourage the
progress of the university at Washing
ton, as well as of the North American
college in Rome.
With regard to the apostolic delega-
ton the pope states that it was insti.
tuted with view to drawing closer to.
gether the bonds between the Catholics
Of America and the holy see without in
any way curtailing the powers of the
bishops.
His holiness urges the American
episcopate to put an end to strife, to in
still the idea Of unity and the perpetuity
of marriage among the faithful and to
inculcate among the people civil and re.
ligious virtues.
In particular the pope calls upon the
bishops to turn aside workmen's asso-
Citations from law breaking, TO teach
journalists respect for religion and
truth, to reprove those journals which
pass Judgment upon episcopal acts and
finally to turn Protestants to Catholic.

ENED WITH A LAWSUIT,

Concludes TO End His Troubles Out of
Court and Sends Bullet Through
His Brnin-A Higher Court will Try
the Old Mans Case-Coroner Nc
Quate Renders Verdict of Death by
Suicide.
John Center, an old and well known resident
of Alliance, committed suicide Wednesday
night about 1890 o'clock, by shooting himself
through the head. He was about 40 years of
age and formerly was proprietor Of the Center
house in Alliance and was reputed to be
wealthy. The property, however, was in his
wife's name, and ON her death, some years
ago, II passed to her daughter. The daughter
died having the property TO minor daughter,
Lillian M, Watson.
The Watson girl lives in Pennsylvania and
the Equitable Trust company, of Philadelphia,
has been appointed her guardian. Center,
ever since the death Of his wife, has been in
possession Of the property and enjoying the
rents. Yesterday he received letter from
Kline & Tolles, of Cleveland, attorneys for the
Trust company, telling him that unless some
amiCable settlement was made or he showed
title, they would commence proceedings to get
possession of the property. This seemed to
worry the old gentleman and he consulted an
attorney in regard TO the matter and was told
he would have to settle.
Center has been making his home at the
house of Celestia Copplen. After eating
hearty supper he retired to his room. He was
never again seen alive.
About 1890 Mrs. Copplen heard the report
of a revolver and awakened her husband. He
made an investigation and found Center sitting
in chair, dead. He was covered with blood
which flowed from a wound i'm his head. The
revolver was found near by.
The police were notified and Coroner Nc
Quate sent for The coroner went to Alliance
on the 3:l6 train this morning and held an in
quest lie returned a verdict of suicide.

upon Mayor Schott, presenting an appeal for

He got some better but insisted upon playing

course of the game he removed his truss, either
because il had broken or because IL interiercd
