VATICAN RULING.
Decision by the Pope Which Refers to
Cathode Parishes Made Up Of Foreign

Decision by the Pope Which Refers Ia
Cathode Parishes Made Up Of Foreign
ers.
CHICAGO, May 24.-The vatican has
sent to the Catholic church in the Unit
ed States decision which has refer
ence to parishes made up of foreigners,
as follows:
First-Chlldren born In America OF foreign
parents whose native language Is not English
are not Obliged, when Of age, to become mem
bers Of the parish to which their parents be-
long, but they have the right to join u parish
In which the language OF the country-that is,
English--is used
Second-Cathollcs not born In America but
knowing the English language, have the right
of becoming members Of the parish In which
English Is In use, and they cannot be compelled
to submit themselves to the jurisdiction OF the
rector OF church built for people who con-
tinue to speak the language OF foreign coun-
try.
The evident purpose of Rome is to
make English the language of the
American church as speedily as posi-
BILE and thus to encourage the develop
ment of spirit of more perfect union
among the members of the Catholic
faith. Parishes in which q foreign
language is used are tolerated as tenn
porary institutions, which will disap-
pear as soon as the conditions making
their erection expedient will have
passed away,

interesting statement Made by the Director
Of Physical Culture In the Missouri Uni
versity.
COLUMBIA, Mo-, May 24.-An inter-
ssting statement was made Friday
by DR.. G. W. Cutler, director of physic-
al culture in the Missouri university,
regarding the results of his expert
ments of the past year In the physical
training Of students. The expert
ments went to prove that physical
training is of great benefit, mentally
as well as physically, and is of great
assistance to the students in their
studies. Dr. Cutler made his report
after careful grading and mathematic-
al calculation. He took an equal
number Of students who pursued the
regular course Of gymnasium exercises
and of students who did not, and com.
pared results. The majority who took
physical culture grew in lung capacity,
in weight and in lift power, while at
the same time they ranked IS per cent.
In their grades in the class room to an
average Of so per cent. rank held by
the students who took no exercise.
These are the first experiments Of a
similar character conducted in any col
lege or university west OF the Missis-
sippi river.

Wholesale Gr0cers Form an Association to
Evade the LAWS Provisions.
KANSAS CITY, No., May 24.--The
wholesale grocers of the Missouri river
cities and of the state OF Kansas held
an all-day session here Saturday, dis
cussing means for evading the anti
combination measure enacted by the
last Kansas legislature. The act pro-
hibits the making and enforcing Of
any fixed rates on goods sold in COM
petition in the state and provides
penalty Of Imprisonment with stiff
fine attached. The effect Of the legis-
lation was said TO have been quite I'M
satisfactory to the trade generally
and widespread dissatisfaction has
resulted from it. The meeting
was for the purpose of max
ing some arrangement that would
accomplish the purpose of the dealers
without openly violating the law.
There was large attendance, over 40
men being at the meeting, represent
ing nearly every wholesaler Of i'm
portance in the territory who
deals in groceries. The Is repre-
sentatives of the business in Kan
sas decided by vote Of II to
to reorganize the association. They
1t was not to control prices
but for the general benefit Of the
trade. W. n. Todd, Of Leavenworth,
will be president, and J. II. Black. of
secretary. They feel that as
they do not own the sugar or coffee
they sell, but act in disposing of it
simply as the agents of the trust, they
are not violating the law, either in
spirit or in fact. The agency dodge is
the one, they say, that entire ly escapes
the attention of the law enacted by the
Kansas legislators

THE CUBAN QUESTION.
WASHINGTON, May s4.-The president
is hearing a great deal about Cuba. He
is being made to feel that the people of
the United States are anxious for some-
thing to be done. Letters urging ac-
ton are coming in great numbers 1t
is notable that this feeling seems TO be
much stronger in the west than in the
east. Until the strength of the popu-
lar feeling was shown it did not seem
probable that anything would be done
speedily. 1t cannot be said now that
anything will be done at once. But
the Cuban question is certainly very
much in the presidents thoughts
OKLAHOMA STATEHOOD DELAYED.
WASHINGTON, May s4.-Gov. Cassius
M. Barnes, Of Oklahoma, called on
Secretary Bliss before leaving for
Guthrie. He said regarding the pros.
poets for the admission of Oklahoma
as a state that the prevailing idea in
the territory now is to delay admission
until Oklahoma and the Indian terri
tory could come into the union as
single state. This, he thought, could
be accomplished in few years.

STOCKTON, CAL, May 24.-Charles
Cavill, the Australian champion swim
mer, who recently swan around the
seal rocks at the Cliff house and across
the Golden gate, died Saturday night
while swimming In Jacksons baths
here. He was trying to beat his
record of five minutes and five sec
onds under water. When seven min
utes had elapsed, Adolph Kahn, an
assistant, went down for him and
brought him up on the third trial.
His friends rolled him and worked
over him for more than an hour. Doc
tors came and worked over him, using
every appliance known, but could not
bring him to life. 1t is believed
that Cavill was asphyxiated and
not drowned. Cavill had an in
verted tube In the water which
he used to deceive the public
in his exhibitions of remaining under
water several minutes. The water in
the Stockton baths comes from natural
gas wells and it is believed gas had ac-
cumulated in the tub. causing his death.
Examination shows his lungs free from
water.

ST. CLAIR, Mich, May 94.-The Lu-
theran church here is split into two
warning factions over the question,
HAS man a right to marry his
dead wife's sister," The pastor claims
he has and the Missouri synod
and about half the church claims
he has not. Two trustees, adhering
to the synod, closed the church so
that no services were held last Sunday.
Saturday the trustees, adhering to the
pastor, entered through a window,
took possession and put new locks on
the church doors. Saturday night the
other trustees broke in the back door,
regained possession and remained in
side. A crowd of the pastors friends
broke in door to force an en-
trance, when several shots were fred
at them from within, and they were
informed that the first man that en-
tered would be dead man. The crowd
later was dispersed by the city marshal
acting under orders from the mayor.
