CARDINAL SATOLLI SPEAKS
Denies RumOrS Concerning His At

and Archbishop Ireland.

tor of Catholic University at
Washington Announced,

Baltimore, Nov. 2O.-The Suns special
correspondent at Rome has interviewed
Cardinal Satolll in relation to the reports
published in this country concerning
Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop Ireland
and others.
He writes: ~ drew his attention to
the reports and rumors about him i'm
mediately after Bishop Keane's resigna-
tion of the rectorship of the Washington
university and the part he is said to have
played in it. His attention was also d.
rected to change said to have some
what suddenly come about in his attitude
toward certain members of the hierarchy,
The various phases and full details of
these rumors were evidently quite un-
known to him."
"He said: You may say that, having
seen the cardinal (Satolli) and having
spoken to him of these reports which
have appeared in the newspapers con-
cerning the matters to which you have
just drawn his attention, he says SOL
emnly that they were wholly devoid of
foundation. Such as he has been here
tofore, such he is and shall continue to
be in respect to the United States. AS
the representative of the holy father, he
has striven to rise land considers that he
has succeeded in rising above all differ
ences and personalities
"Then, forgetting for the moment the
formal method of utterance he had been
employing, he spoke in the 6rst person
singular saying: 4 have striven on every
occasion for the peace and common veal
of the church and country, Loyalty to
Church and Country, which is the title of
my book, has ever been my motto.''

DISCUSSING CONSUMPTION.
Splendid Reception rendered the
Pan merican Medical Men by
the People OF the City OF
Mexico.

City of Mexico, Nov. 20.-Dr. A. M.
Holmes, of Denver, who is here by spe.
cial invitation of the medical congress,
yesterday OK xplalned the manner in which
he had discovered the method of diaguos-
ing consum ption by the examination of
drop of blood, enabling physicians to
treat the disease while yet in the blood,
and before it has attacked the system uf
the patient. The discovery has been the
subject of comment of all the medical
journals and professional men. Dr..
Holmes attended the congress at the
urgent invitation of it's members, who de-
sired to have the discoverer read the
paper. 1t is by far the most important
subject the congress has taken up 80 far
in its session, and it is generally believed
that method has been brought to light
that, while it will not cure, will prevent
the progress and arrest the spread of the
disease.
The international executive committee
of the Pan-American medical congress
agreed to accept the invitation of the
Venezuelan government to hold the next
session within two or three years at Car
acas. DR.. William Pepper, of Philadel-
phia. will be the next president of the
congress-.
The executive committee also decided
that a subscription be started among
physicians of all the American nations
toward the Pasteur memorial in Paris.
1t was further decided to memorialize
the United States government not to
place obstacles in the way of vivisection.
The regular scientific sessions took
place and after the close the doctors, on
invitation of Mayor Comacho, visited the
new penitentiary. Last evening grand
recep ption was given the doctors by the
city government, who were rendered also
monster military band serenade by the
consolidated bands of the garrison of this
city. The streets were illuminated and
there was grand display of fireworks.
The session has been of great interest
and we'll attended by local doctors.
A Fair Wool Trade.
Boston, Mass, Nov. 2O.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter says of the
wool trade: The. sales of wool for the
week in Boston, Philadelphia and New
York aggregate 5,75O,6OO pounds, 3,092,-
600 being domestic aud 2,6S3,000 lorelgn.
There has been fair average market
during the past week and fair amount
of business was slone. Some dealers,
however, are doing next to nothing, pre-.
ferring to hold their wool for higher
prices.
The quotations which are made to-day
in many quarters indicate feeling of
encouragement now so generally preva-
lent regarding the future of the wool
market. 1t is noteworthy that the first
holders of wool have advanced their
prices about 100 per cent more than have
the merchants and commission dealers at
the distributing centers in the last few
weeks.
Sales in the three principal markets,
since January 1, aggregate 2O7,921 ,45l

4 The weight of the body forces the
spring close to the heel and as the step

to the step, and practically forces the

WALKING MADE EASY.

An Invention Which Does Away with
ei Half the Fatigue. 7st,-...
A spring heel attachment for shoes
to aid in walking is one of the latest de-
vices for the comfort of pedestrians.
says the New York Journal. soI
With this attachment the effort Of
lifting ones foot is practically reduced
to minimum. The spring actually lifts
the foot, and the pedestrian does the
rest.
DR.. George e. Sewan is the inventor
and patentee of this curious device,
which is nothing but a stiff strip of
steel about an inch in width and some
three inches long. It's first bent double
and one end turned upward over the
ether end, SO as to fit it closely to the
edge of the heel of the shoe.
The spring is screwed to the. heel of
any ordinary shoe, and once in place, it
gives "spring" to the step, which is of
great assistance in walking or running.
The idea is taken from the natural ac-

Or nearly p. miles! Last year he OBJ
tanned a photograph with a camera at
tacbed to such a kite, and during the
last fortnight has been employing the
same methods in Boston for the same
purpose, with gratifying success.
The special object of a tailless kite is
10 avoid the management and accident
that is almost sure to result when lot
cfthem are sent up tandem. Although
the Malays and other people had made
such thing before Mr.. Eddy tried to do
50. his design was worked out by him
self before he had seen any of the
others. The general plan of construc-
ton is as follows: 4 d '- ~ '-'-' -'-
Take two slender sticks of equal
length let MS say four feet. Have
them hal. an inch wide, or less, and a
Good quarter of an inch thick. Cross
them exactly at right angles, the inter
section coming in the middle of the
horizontal one, and trif1e less than
one-ffth of the way from the top of the
upright one. The precise proportion is
Is per cent. Notch the edges as in old
fashioned kite-building, and run
string around. For kites slightly
larger than this one Mr.. Eddy prefers
fine piano wire, which will not stretch.
Before uniting on the cord or wire,
though. one other very important thing
must be done. The cross stick must be
bent so as to bulge forward slightly in
The middle A string behind, stretched
from end TO end. as on an archer's bow,
can be used to regulate the amount of
the curvature. which should be such
that the distance from the center of the
cross stick VIII be four per cent. of the
length-a scant two inches for a 49,
inch stick. In order to give greater
strength to the fabric an extra cross
stick, half the length of the bent one
and left straight, is secured 5. parallel
with the other at the back of the kite.
The upright stick should pass between
them, as shown in the smaller diagram.
Thin, strong manila paper makes a
good covering. Thismay be fitted tight
ly at the upper part of the kite, but be-
low the cross stiel1-cafe-should be taken
to make he covering a, little baggy, so
that the wind will produce hollows each
side of the upright. The paper should
be cut a trife too large wrinkled a
little where it is pasted, and then put on
somewhat loose. The right effect will
be secured after a little experiment, if
not at first. To make the belly band,
take piece of cord of the right length
and form small loop near, but not
exactly in, its middle Into this Ioop
you will afterward tie the string with
which YOU fly the kite. Fasten the free
end of the shorter section of the belly
band to the intersection of the sticks,
and the longer section to the extreme
Iowermost point of the kite. The, first
Of these sections should be about as
long as that portion of the upright be
low the Intersection, and the s. other
should correspond to the hypothenuse
OF right-angled triangle. A little ex-
perlmentng is generally, needed before
me proportions necessary to give the
best results are obtained. It is. there
lore wise TO take plenty of cord and
Eot to tie hard knots at frst.-7N.IY.
