Theories,

We lavish too much thought on theurizing,
And subtle schemes we call philanthropy,
In vain and intricate philosophizing,
And seeking other names for charity.
With formulated prayers, demure demeanor
And weekly worship meath a gilded spire,
We ask not if the heart be thereby cleaner
Or all our aspirations nobler, higher.
We preach with glowing language, chastened
duly,
(How marvelously sweet the phrases soundD
Some pet theology Just fashioned newly
All means of grace are i'll its doctrines found.
Daily we meet COD poor and wretched crea.
Made in his likeness who for sinners died.
And hasten by them with averted features
And hearts made hard and cold with sinful
pride.
The cup of water that WI might have given,
The little ones we might have clothed and
fed.
The heights we might have reached had we
but striven,
The kindly words which we have left unsaid.
These opportunities for better being
How often do they pass unnoticed by,
While we inert, Indifferent sit, not seeing
That angel hands would lift us up Oh high.
On, could we rouse ourselves TO grand ell.
deavor,
And sympathize, unsclfish with our race,
"Twere worth all thoughts and theories that
Have sought true honest action to displace.

TOPIC AT THE VATICAN.
The Coming Election in the United
States Regarded with Interest.

London, Oct. 27.-The Pail Mall Ga
zette publishes a despatch from it's
Rome correspondent in which he says:
THE coming presidential election in
the United States is the absorbing topic
at the Vatican, owing to the strides
made by Catholicism in America, now
one of the largest sources of income
the church has. 1t is recognized that
the standing danger to Romanism in
the United States is the independence
of the. American bishops, noticeable
since the time of Plus TX. The latter
fully recognized that these bishops en-
joyed greater power than their breth-
rem elsewhere, and he showed he un-
derstood this by his answer to some
English priests who asked for certain
privileges. He said
Il am. as you say, Pope, yet cannot
accept your request. But l can show
you way to obtain your desire. Go to
America, for there the bishops are
greater than the Pope On the ac-
cessiOn of Pope Leo matters assumed
different aspect. He charged Monsig-
nor SatOlli with the duty of intimating
to the bishops in unmistakable lam
guage the limits Of their powers, and
the result was something like split
which it took Monsignor Satolli two
years to heal. But his mission had good
results" The correspondent adds that
the Vatican does not wish the clergy
in the United States to take part in the
campaign, lest there should be a new
division in the ranks and an outburst
of Incorporate expression of political
opinion on the part of the more i'm
petuOus bishops.

THE ANDRUS MURDER.
No Apparent solution of the Mystery
nj Present in Sight.

Yonkers, N. Y, Oct. 27.-NO apparent
solution of the mystery surrounding
the death Of Hamlin ]. Andrus, who
was killed by the explosion of a bomb
in the Office of the Arlington Chemical
works last Wednesday morning, Is in
sight. The coroner and the Pinkerton
detectives, who have been running
down all sorts OF clues for the past
week, have made very little progress.
During the past two days suspicion
seems to have centered about an en-
ploye of the factory, 1t being claimed
by the Investigators that many strange
circumstances seemingly connect the
individual with the death of Andrus.
There was no motive. The mans
name had unfortunately been men,
toned by indiscreet persons and the
people demanded that the coroner
should show his hand. In the face Of
such criticism, he was forced today to
make a statement, adding, however,
that he still believed that Andrus was
assassinated.
1t now looks as If the case would
never be satisfactorily cleared up.

or that has furnished more and bet
ter reasons for the maintenance of

insurance companies of the United

ance companies. and 1t is great tri-
butte to them, this magnificent stand
they have taken for the maintenance

Of the country. / am glad to meet and
