CLERICAL USURPATION.

Roman Catholics Who Voted for q Liberal
Candidate Denied Christian Burial.
TORONTO, Ont, March 13.-Arch bish-
op Langevin, of Manitoba, has declared
that Roman Catholics who voted for
the liberal candidate in the recent
bye-election will be refused burial in
consecrated ground if they die in
their consequent spiritual condition,
and also that he reserved to himself
the hearing of all confessions of that
''sin." The Globe, in commenting on
the above, says:
''If the church holding the spiritual
guidance of large section of the Cana
dian people is allowed to dictate to it's
members as to what public men and
measures they shall support, and
what they shall condemn, and to en-
force such DEGREES by denial of Chris
tian burial and infiiction of spiritual
penalties, popular government becomes
a delusion.
1.-The people and parliament have too
long tolerated clerical domination in
political affairs. Such consideration
and liberation have been abused, and
it is their right and duty to assert and
maintain the supremacy of the state in
public affairs"

Rio JANEIRO, March 10.-The excite

his soldiers by band of fanatics, under
Conselheiro at Canudas, in the state of

with people who only need a deter
mined leader to incite them to renewed
disorder.
The attack upon the offices of three
monarchist newspapers at Saopaulo
and one in this city. all of which were
wrecked and pillaged and afterwards
set on fire, was caused by the belief of
the mobs that the monarchists were as

WASHINGTON, March 13.-Secretary
Sherman had call, by appointment,
from Mrs. Ruiz, widow of the man who
is alleged to have been murdered in the
military prison of Guanabacoa, Cuba,
several weeks ago. Mrs. Ruiz was
accompanied by her five children
and an interpreter, whose presence
was needed, as she is unable to speak a
word of English. The interview,
which lasted about five minutes, was
devoted to a pathetic recital of the total
restitution of the family and their re-
lance upon the United States to secure
an indemnity from Spain on account OF
the death of Ruiz, who it is claimed
was a naturalized American citizen
practicing dentistry for the past Is years
in Cuba. Secretary Sherman, after hear
ing the complaints, suggested that it
would be necessary to put the petition
in writing, when the departmentwould
give it prompt consideration.

South and Had to Explain.
New YORK, March 1O.-Ex-Senator
Patrick Walsh, of Georgia, is at the
Fifth-avenue hotel Two or three
weeks ago when he was in the city he
made some facetious remarks about
the Cleveland administration. These
remarks, he said yesterday, caused him
a great deal of trouble among the dem
ocrats of Georgia. His fine satire was
lost on the people of his state. The
statement that Cleveland had made the
country prosperous and happy, and had
made the American idea paramount in
Hawaii and Cuba, was taken literally,
and the people down south asked the
ex-senator to explain.
''Humor is a dangerous thing" he
said, land 1 will leave it alone in fut-
ure. 1 have abandoned the idea of
giving a series of lectures on Our
Country as Cleveland Found 1t and as
he Lost It The people of the south

tional feeling. The democrats want to
see him succeed, and will not do any
thing to make his way difficult"

TIE EXTRA SESSION.

VIII 1t be q Working or D0-Gothlng,
Waiting SpeII?-NO Decision Has Yet
Been Reaehed-Some Influential Repub-
iicans are Urging the Appointments
of Committees and the Filling Up OF
Time with General Business.
NEW YORK, March 13.-A Sun special
from Washington says: No decision
has yet been reached by Speaker Reed
and the leaders of the old house OF rep
resentatives, who will also be the lead
.rs of the new, as to whether the pro-
graInme originally agreed upon of pass
ing the tariff bill and then adjourning
from day to day without transacting
any business will be carried out. The
speaker thinks there is a disposition
among members to adhere to this pro
gramme, but many influential republi-
cans in and out of congress are opposed
to it. They say that, as it will be nee
essary for the speaker to appoint some
Of the standing committees, he
might as well appoint them all,
and if he does that it will be impossi-
bic to prevent the introduction and
consideration of general legislation.
The republican senators are convinced
now that while there will be no abso-
lutte fiibustering against the passage
Of the tariff bill in the senate, it will
be freely amended and fully debated,
and that the session will last three
months or more. To keep the house in
session that length of time without
transacting any business, many sena-
tors think impracticable, and they are,
therefore, advising the speaker to ap-
point the committees ard get the house
to work upon the rul .ag business so
that the length o. the session
next year may be curtai1ed. One class
of republicans, including many influ-
entail senators, are impressing upon
those leaders the necessity of supple
menting the tariff bill by some meas
ure of currency reform in order to re-
ieve the unsatisfactory business con-
ditions. These senators will have
talk with the president on this subject
during the next few days, but nothing
definite will be decided as to whether
the session of the house will be do
nothing session, except for the passage
of the tariff bill, until after the Or
ganization has been effected and the
pretense made of consulting with the
new members.

REMARKABLE LAWS OF NATURE
The Marvellous DeIicacy of the Sense
of Touch.

The Marvellous DeIicacy of the Sense
of Touch.
A man will die for want of air in five
minutes, for want of sleep in ten days,
for want of water in a week, and for
want of food at varying periods, de-
pendent on circumstances.
The delicacy of the sense of touch is
marvellous. The fourth Jewel wheel
screws of a watch, though they have
26O threads to the inch, look like dust.
They are four-one-thousandt of an
inch in diameter, and lady's ordinary
thimble would hold 100000 of them;
yet after being hardened and cut they
are placed by the hand very rapidly in
frames, with their heads up. This is
done by touch alone.
When one falls asleep the order of
surrender to the spell is: sight, taste,
smell. hearing, touch. The sense of
touch is the Hghtest sleeper and most
easily awakened, then hearing. then
sight, while sluggard taste and smell
waken last.
The human body is an epitome in
nature of all mechanics, all hydraulics
all architecture, all machinery of every
kind. There are more than 31O me.
chanicai movements known to mechan-
les to-day, and all of these are but modi-
fications of those found in the human
body. Here are found all the bars,
levers, joints, pulleys, pumps. pipes,
wheels and axles, ball and socket move
ments, beams, girders, trusses, buffers,
arches, columns, cables and supports
known to science At every point mans
best mechanical work can be shown to
be but adaptations of processes of the
human body. a revelation of first prin-
ciples used in nature.-Ladies' Home
