Corpus Christi Parish Division Case
C0meH to An End.

Corpus Christi Parish Division Case
Comes to An End.
Fort Dodge. Iowa, Feb. q. - The
famous Corpus Christi parish division
case is officially at an end. The case
attracted attention all over the coun
try, and the highest authorities of the
Catholic church We're involved in it.
Archbishop Hennessy of Dubuque or
dered the division of the parish, rs is
his usual custom, without consulting
the congregation here: They rebellcd
vigorously and much bad feeling
arose. The press dispatches about
the cast recently have not been very
accurate. The cold truth, unwelcome
though it is in Fort Dodge. is that the
case is at an end and the archbishop
has his way. The parish is divided
and will remain divided.

A GREAT TIDE OF PROSPERITY,
Canadian Loan Companies Getting Money
On Mortgages That Had Been

Canadian Loan Companies Getting Money
on Mortgages That Had Been
Written On.
Probably in the history Of the con-
tfnent there never was such a tide of
prosperity enjoyed by any country as
the Dominion Of Canada is being IA
vored with. That. portion of Canada
known as Western Canada is attract
Ing thousands of people, who are seek
ing homes on The arabic lands of that
new but rapidly developing country.
Possessed Of exceptionally good rail-
road privileges, the best school sys-
tenn in the world, churches in every
small settlement, while in the towns
and cities all denominations are rep
resented, and with markets in close
proximity to the grain aslds, most of
the requirements Tor a comfortable ex-
1stence are met. The development
that is now taking place in the min
ing districts gives an impulse to agri-
culture, n good prices, with good
crops, bring about a state Of affairs
that the crowded districts of more
populous cehters are taking advan-
tage of. The Associated Press dis
patches a few days since had the. fol-
lowing telegram:
Toronto, Feb. 4.-(Special.)-Loan
companies that made advances on
Manitoba property years ago report
that the returns from the west during
the past three months have exceeded
expectations. One company has taken
from Manitoba over $4,000 interest,
and discharged mortgages, many. of
which had been written off atyear ago.
Directors of leading loan companies
are taking a greater interest in bust
ness of their institutions, and are in
curing into many properties on which
advances have been made.
The climate in the western provinces
of Manitoba, Alberta, Assiniboia and
Saskatchewan is excellent, there be-
ing no healthier anywhere. The Can
adam government is offering spe-
cial inducements for the encourage
ment Of settlers, and they have their
agents at work throughout the United
States for the purpose Of giving in
formation and distributing literature.
Among those going to Canada are
many ex-Canadians, who have failed
to make as good a living as they ex-
pected in the United States.

says:
IF the incaSion of Sokoto is directed
from Paris. it admits but of one inter-
pretatiOn. II the seriousness of the
situation is increased when it is re-
membercd that these invasions, of
British territory must have been
planned weeks before the present fer

appear that the French cabinet. for
seeing the revelations which should be
caused by the trial of NJ. Zoll, had de-
termined to bring affairs in West At

Paris, Feb. 23.-The govelnM ent has
10 news of the French having crossed
the Niger into the SokotO country,
and it is, added that any such unau-
thorized movement would be disa-
vowed 10y the government.
A semi-otficial note issued later says
it is quite untrue that French forces
have entered the Sokoto region, and
that the story is merely Il revival of

London. Feb. 23.-All the morning
papers comment editorially OH the

The Paris denials are regarded as an
official 'disavowal of the advance of
the French expedition. Official and
diplomatic circles in Paris are quite
calm and composed and it is inferred,
therefore. that the expedition will be
recalled.
