AN ODD APPEAL

whether Mortgaged Sheep Can Grow Wool
TO Someone Else
A rather odd decision has been re-
ceived from the supreme court in the
case of the First National bank of Santa
Ana, respondent, vs.. Erreca ct al. de-
PENDANTS, and Bruschi ct al, appel
lants.
The action was brought by the plain
tiff to foreclose chattel mortgage upon
1880 sheep that had been executed to its
assignors in January, 1894 by the de-
PENDANTS, Erreca and Barrandeguy. In
April. 1895, the mortgagor had sold to
the defendant, Bruschi, Il 900 pounds of
wool. the clip of the sheep described in
the mortgage, after its execution, and
sheared from them by the mortgagors.
In May, 1895, they sold to the defendant,
Casson, S15 lambs that had been born
from the mortgaged sheep, also subse-
quent to the execution Of the mort
gage. The trial court held that the
wool and also the lambs sold were COW
cred by the mortgage, and judgment was
rendered directing that the band of
sheep be sold. From this judgment
Bruschi and Casson appealed.
The present case" says the supreme
court, 'presents the question as to
whether the lien of the mortgage in
cludes lambs in CESSATION at its date.
Upon the principles of the two follow
ing cases, ii must be held that they are
not so included. In Simpson VS. Fer
guson Q12 Cal. 1900. it was held that
the mortgagor of real property was en-
titled to whatever crops might grow
upon the mortsaged property prior to
foreclosure, and it was said in Shoobert
vs. De Motea Q12 Cal, 215) that if in the
case of sheep the use of which the mort
gagor puts the ewes is for breeding
lambs, there can be no sufficient reason
given why the lambs that are dropped
by the ewes should belong to the mort
gagee any more than the wool which
IS sheared from their backs.o

Manning and the Jesuits.

Edmund S. Purcell, who wrote the
biography of Cardinal Manning that
was so widely discussed and in some
quarters condemned, wrote paper for
The Nineteenth Century entitled ION
the Ethics of Suppression In Biogra-
ply, in which he makes an interesting
statement concerning Manning's rela-
tions to the Jesuits:
Cardinal Manning could not endure
lit was not III his nature-to be looked
upon by the Jesuits as an enemy OF
vital godIiness. They fell under his
ban. Metaphorically he "oursed them
with bell, book and candle. In
Laughing fashion their retort came
quick:
Cardinals may come, cardinals may go.
But we 60 on forever.
Cardinal Manning, as is known of all
men. regarded the suppression of the
Society Of Jesus in 1878 as the work OF
Gods hand He likewise locked upon
It's restoration in 1927 as Gods work.
But his abiding hostility to the Jesuits,
based, as he declared. on their corporate
action in England and Rome, was testi-
fed by the prediction which he uttered
on various occasions, II foresee another

A Submarine Mountain In the Middle Of

Almost at the very center Of the At

equator and about half way between
South America and Africa--is sub
marine mountain SO high that, in spite
of tho immenso depth of the sea, IL
thrusts its peak 20 feet above the waves
This peak. startling from its position,
forms a labyrinth Of islets, the whole
not over half a mile in circumference,
known as st. Paul's rocks. So steep is
the mountain, of which this lonely rest
ing place Of sea birds is the summit, that
ono mile from these rocks a 800 fathom
line with which soundings were at

We're the bed of the sea to be suddenly

st. Pauls rocks would be tho cloud
capped peak of a mountain rising In
sheer ascent in the midst Of broad
plain. They are supposed to have been
formed by the same disturbance OF ma
turo which separated the Cape Verde is
lands from Africa.
Treaeherous currents make navigation
in the vicinity of these rocks dangerous.
A Brazilian naval officer, who passed
them on an English steamer, tells me
that the evening before they expected to
sight them he was told by tho captain
that at o'clock in the morning they
would appear about five miles west. Az
that hour the officer went on deck and
looked to the notwithstanding but an

The Protestant eeeeaaass institutions
ia Germany have paved tho way for an
independent position and suitable work
for unmarried women Tho black dress
with the white aape gives her a safe en-.
try into all houses, and wo cannot but
regret that the number OF ladies is not
larger who seek this useful occupation
But it has also given general impulse
to the work of women IN all the branches
eff home missions.
This brings rs to another point--the
position OF women in religious work
Women pastors and preachers are reoog-
nized in America as an order already
existing In Germany we are only in
the beginning, but this beginning is
made The speaking of women in public
was formerly rendered quite impossible.
At first it was allowed in smaller circles
Of women. Now a lady, Mrs Guauck,
who is one of the German representa-
tives Of the rights OF women, was re.
quested to give an address at the evan
golioal social congress- at Brfurt last
year. and she met with universal APP
plause. We begin TO hear now that
women mBy make public addresses
without losing that true delicacy which
we should not caro- to miss. In cur
prayer meetings women begin to take
al active part. We even find that these
meetings only become moro lively and
interesting when women join in the
exercises. Count Bernstorff in Exam.
