Although officials Of the banks who
deposited with the subtreasury 20 re-
store the reserve disclaim any connec'

orally admitted that the success Of the
one was made dependent upon the ac-

presidents would not have parted with
their gold had they not been assured
that the foreign houses would arrange
some plan whereby the metal might be
retained in the country. They saw no
use Of paying into the treasury II It was
TO be as promptly withdrawn and in
consequence the foreign bankers action
was a necessity.

HELD UP The STAGE,

Passenger Robbed.

WICHITA. Kan. July 2S.-In a lonely
gulch several miles west Of the village
Of Lacey in the northern portion OF Ok
lahona the regular mail stage was held
up yesterday afternoon by a band OF
outlaws who riaed the express and mail
sacks, taking all the registered letters
and the Valuables carried by the passen'
gers in the coach. There Is little doubt
that the robbery was the work Of an or
ganized gang Of "Bill" Doolin, the con-
DENIED murder and outlaw who escaped
from the Jail at Guthrie several weeks
ago with a dozen desperate robbers. A
big force Of United States marshals has
been in pursuit Of the outlaws ever since
their escape.

distress has no parallel in Protestant
ism. When a poor devil is ill of a con-
tagious disease and preacher is sent for
he halts at the gate and pours consola-
ton through a picket fence-a la "Laco,

I do not go to the defense of Cathol-
icism-Im not much of churchman
anyhow; I simply point out, to those
oVer-zealous Protestants who are SO bit
terlY assailing it, that if they would at
tack poverty, ignorance and crime with
the same vigor it would be better for the
world-that the best way to ascertain
the relative effect of the two cults on
public morals would be to compare the
number Of preachers with the number of
priests in the penitentiary. Were CATH
olicism suddenly blotted out, Protestant
ism could scarce survive a century. The
first has ever been the ark of the Chris
tian covenant, the theological sun about
which all schisms revolye. The schisns
are born and die; they come and go, but
the Catholic church goes on. forever.
Numerically it occupies first place in the
worlds religions, while the warning fac,
tons of Professionalism combined could
scarce claim fifth. Truly if the world
is ever captured for Christ it must be
by the Catholics. We have in America
more than one hundred brands Of Prot
and the differentiation in,
creases year by year-despite the Mas
ter's warning that a house divided
against itself cannot stand. Some Of these
divisions are large, some are small, but
all are new; it yet remains for them ia
be tried in the crucible of time-that
Moloch which has devoured so many re-
ligious cults. Not only are they at war
among themselves, but are hammering
with more or less ferocity at their COM
mon mothers heart and decrying thei1
own birth.

suredly parts that are obscure and ap-
parently are Intentionally confused, but
as cardinal wittily said, "Holy Scrip

historical fact marking the beginning OF
a new period by the side of the ency-
clical Of Leo XIII: on the union of the
churches. It will be an irrefutlble wit
ness of the peaceful sentiments of the
Anglican church, and a proof OF the at
traction which the Pope has exercised in
the world by his idea of peace and con-
ciliation. When we think OF the cen

strong prejudices of Englishmen against
the apacy, the violent struggles in this

Protestants, and that the word of Leo

AN irish ASTRONOMER
Story of Interest Concerning the
- Teachings of St. Vir-
gilius.
Demonstrating to an Age that
Was Crude that the Earth
Is Round.
His Theories Accepted in Rome
and Approved by the Pope at
That Early Day.

Having read with much pleasure yo,,l
reputation Of the lying charges of the
Truth Seeker against the Church anent the
| persecution of st. Virgilius the great Irish
astronomer, I am tempted to send you th:s
communication to throw more light upon
that celebrated case upon which Catholic
writer's themselves differ so widely, writes
Roger Vail in the Buffalo Union and
l-T.mes.
| The great Dominion orator, Father Tom
Burke, referred to Virgili1.s as follows in
Zone of his lectures delivered in this coun-
Etry:
In the sixth century there was an Irish
saint who was called V:rgilius, and this
man was a great Culdee monk and great
scholar. The result of his speculation was
that he became satisfied in his own mind
that this world is a globe. and that there
must. therefore be an antipodes-one on
Ethis side and one on the other side, and
| that. there must be seas between one land
and another. He announced this, AMI it
came among the scientific men OF the day
and fell amongst them as if bombshe,l
had burst at their feet. The scholars of
the day, e;upiversities of the day, applied
to Rome against him for having pronounc-
ed SO fearful theory; they said It was here
.sy.. What did the Pope do? He sum-
moned the man to Rome. He said: .'You
|aTe charged with a strange doctrine
|swithasaying the world is a sphere. Tell us
all about it, He did So What answer
did. Virgil:ts get? The Pope took him by
the hand. my dear sir,' he said, ego on
with your astronomical discoveries" and
he made him bishop Of Salzburg and sent
him home with m;tre on his head. +.

History of the Catholic Church. ..

Pope Zachary wrote to Bon:face (arch-
bishop OF Afayence) ito excommunicate the
Ereckless innoYator. Some modern writers,
||sfnstigated by hatred for tne Catholic
Church, have made the condemnation of
illus an argument against the papacy,
alleging that st. Zachary condemned the
