Early IN the volume Mr.. Mccarthy says that
while the biographer Of Plus 1X writes the
history of an era the biographe: OF Leo 49,
writes the history OF man. Inc present ~

altogether with success. He has given gen

history Of the part Leo has played In MS era ou'
of the personality of Leo the man ne mas pre-
scented a shadowy and imperfect view. IN 'ha'
particular Of ALL indeed. the work is most 'i'au
eouate. We are told Of the Popes doings' vi

bahits as is given is borrowed from the writings
of another author and is inserted as thing

So I'm conclusion Mr.. Mccarthy sums up the
character and career Of the Pope, not In MS
own words nor according 10 his own Judgment

from an article which he may have clipped from

in which biography should be written. The me-

Nevertheless even these blemishes do not de-

lars noted at the beginning of this article 1t is
entirely and impressivey unique. We have said
that Leo is distinguished among the Popes by
his having succeeded to no temporal sovereignty.
The student Of his life and works will probably
be constrained to add that TO that same crcum-

lack Of power in temporal things he owes his

curiously inadequate and disappointing
chapter of eight pages is given to the Home
Rule movement in Ireland Perhaps that is be-
cause one of the chief Home Rule leaders is the
author of the book At first blush that fact
might lead US to expect a particularly full and
interesting treatment of the subject But con-
sidcratiOn will show that the revcrse-just what
has been realZed-was inevitable. Mr. Nc
Carthy did not write this book TO reveal the
secrets of the Home Rule campaign. nor to
vive old to cause new controversies. We
cannot help believing that 1t was in his power
to tell great deal more than he has told about
the part played by the Church and by the Pope
in Ireland from 1880 10 1890. and readily
excuse him for not telling all. But there
some things which he might and should have
told; things already we'll known. which he
might have recapitulated as a mere matter Of
record. That he did not do so is for re-
greet and marks his work with ncompleteness.
The same may be said concerning recent &C.
clesiastlcal occurrences in the United States.
Everybody knows there have been serious dis
putes over matters Of discipline. If not Of doe

Church. well as organized attacks upon

least some mention Of them should have been
made in this book.
Considerable space is given. and properly TO

strengthening of Catholicism in that country

the Popes attempt to bring the Armenian
Church into the fold OF Rome. His letter to
the Armenian clergy was fine bit Of exhorta-
ton. and their reply was one OF the choicest
bits OF ecclesiastical daectics this century has
seen. That all mention OF 1t should be omitted
from a biography Of Leo XIII is as surprising
it is regrettable.

More Than Mile Made a Minute In a
Recent Trial.
Aided by southerly wind and per
fectly clear sky, the first test of the
pigeons which are to represent The first
Chicago Homing club in the National
federation races this year was n most
notable success, says the Chicago Chron-
icle The trial was remarkable in more
than one feature. Two hundred and
eighty-one birds, the largest number
which the club has ever liberated from
one racing station, made the trip. and
of that number every bird was reposing
peacefully in it's loft by one o'clock in
the afternoon. The time made by the
first birds to arrive home was the fast
est ever made over the course. and rep
resents speed of more than a mile
minute.
The birds were liberated at Moree,
AZ miles away from the nearest loft.
at 7:3O o'clock. and White Wings owned
by L. Verschueren, stepped back in its
loft at S:141a. White Wings was closely
followed by nearly half the flocll,-and 80
arrivals were reported between S:15 and
S:17. Inasmuch as every bird spent at
least as much as five minutes in circling
before starting on n line for home. the
speed shown is materially more than
a mile in each 60 seconds.
AS an illustration of how little even
the best fanciers are able to judge of
the merits of their own pets. it is in
teresting to note that White Wings had
been considered almost worthless. Only
a month ago he was flown from Sixty
first street. distance of eight miles
to his loft. and took IS DAYS to make the
journey. That was his first trial, and
he was sent to AIonee Saturday quite
as much in the hope that he would be
lost as for any other reason.

The undersigned desires to organize q class in

lord both time ana expense ought to be master

has many advantages over modern Languages on
account of her profound literature in all branch

her world-renowned universities. Those who
would drink from these inexhaustible and yet
master the language which contains the key to
them. The undersigned will organize i class in
German, and will begin with actual work on the
first day of September. The class will meet two
or three times week in the evening when
most convenient to the upils. Rapid progress
guaranteed to those who will get down to earn
est labor: All who desire to participate in this
work will please announce their intention to
the undersigned at an early date, as the class

will be very reasonable.
