Reports In regard to winter wheat
are discourag1ng. The continuous rains,
followed by high water In the streams,
have flooded the low lands In many
portions Of southern Illinois, 30 that
whss wheat was not winter killed has
been utterly ruined by water. Reports
from nearly half of the counties In the
state, including almost all OF the win
ter-wheat growing counties, are that
two-thirds of the wheat seeded last fall
Lis 900 acres was winter killed or
destroyed by floods, and the condition
of the remaining third-5S9, 900 acres
is 80 poor that under the most favora-
BILE conditions only one-third OF an ay-
erage crop may be expected. The out
look IL that little more than enough
wheat for seed will be harvested In
Illinois this season, and the people will
hayo to depend Ola other states for
wheat for consumption, a condition
that has occurred but once In the agri-
cultural history of the state.

BY the last census 1t appears that
the population OF France is nov 49,
228, 1863, an increase in five years of
only 1889, and this mainly through
immigration. For several years past
the death rate has exceeded the birth
rate. These facts become still more
significant when a comparison is made
between France and her neighbors. In
Germany the increase of population
during the last five years has been
2,861, 431, nearly 5000, 900. as against
134, 900 in France. The contrast Is still
more striking when these figures are
compared with those OF the past. At
the beginning of the century France
o~utnumbered Prussia three to one. To-
day Prussia contains almost an equal
population, and as for the whole Of
Germany, there are five Germans to
every four Frenchmen.

MUST SPEAK ENGLISH.
That Language to he Used In the
Catholic Church I'm America.

Chicago, May "A. - Information has
been obtained that Rome has just
transmitted 10 the Catholic church in
the United States the most magnificent
ruling Of recent years bearing on &C.
clesiastical matters in America. The
decision is:
First-Children born in America OF
foreign parents. whose native language
is not the English, are not obliged
when of age to become members of the
parish 10 which their parents belong.
but they have n right to join a parish
In which the language of the country
that is, English-is used.
Second-Catholics not born in Ameri-
ca, but knowing The English language,
have the right of becoming members
of the parish i'm which English is used.
and they cannot be compelled TO sub
nit themselves 10 the jurisdiction Of
the rector of a church built for people
who continue to speak the language of
n foreign country.
The evident purpose of Rome is TO
make English the language OF the
American church as speedily as possi-
BILE. and thus to encourage the devel-
opment OF a spirit Of more perfect
union among the members of the Cath
Ollie faith.
