that the Catholics of Manitoba demand

government of that province insists on

public schools. The dispute has been car

THE POPE'S AGENT.
Mgr. Del Val and His Important Mission
to Manitoba.

Mgr. Del Val, who Is now in Manitoba
as the personal representative of the pope,
charged with the investigation of the
much debated Manitoba school question, is
q tall, slender man of quiet, studiOus man
ner. He is the eldest son of the present
embassrdOr from Spain to the Vatican and
is considered an expert in ecclesiastical
law. He is only 35 years old, but has al
ready had distinguished career.
Mgr. Del Val was born in Spain, but
his mother is an English woman. He was
educated by the English Jcsuits while his
father was ambassador from Spain to tho
court of st. James. 1t is probable that
parental influence paved the way for his
rapid rise nrthe church, for he has been ad-
vancod from one post to another until this
important mission has been intrusted to
him. He holds the position of secretary Of
the papal commission for the reunion Of
the discomfort churches, which aims at
the gathering of all the Protestant churches
into the church of Rome. In this capacity
he was member of the recent commission
which denounced the ordinations of the
Church Of England.

this time that the situation in Canada is

Money Changers Win Easily, By
a Score of 46 to 8.

Chicago, Nov 25.-In spite of a
drizzzling rain. some 1000 people as
sembled at Bankers Field to see the
football contest between the Knicker-
booker Athletic club of New York and
Bankers A. C. of this city. The New
Workers won the toss and defended
the south goal At II o'clock the money
changers kicked off after three or four
scrimmages, clarendon made touch
down after a run of 70 yards.
After kicking off a second time the
Bankers held their opponents for short
gains Briggs picked up the pail on
tumble and made touchdown, runnlng
45 yards. The goal was scored, max
ing the Bankers to 4.
The Knickerbockers kicked on ana
the Bankers soon rushed the ball down
for a touchdown which Briggs con-
verified into a goal. The Bankers,
seemingly gained strength, each down,
and they rushed the ball over the line
twice more, when the Knickerbockers
scored a touchdown, after a long run
from the middle of the field.
O'Connor again failed to put the
pigSkin between the posts.
The Bankers kicked off 80 yards and
held their opponents for three downs
when O'Connor Dunted to Mann, who

yU4rp covered with mud.
The bankers kicked off for 80 yards
but soon recovered the ball and after
successive runs by Brown, Briggs and

punt and fell on the ball on their op-
ponents 10 yard line. However, in their
eagerness to score, Beers made a long
] pass to Hughes, who fumbled and
gave a chance to a sturdy accountant
to drop on the ball. After this Roach
and Thomas each made a touchdown
and Briggs, with his unerring aim, put
the leather between the posts, making
the final score As to 8.
