POPE AND UNITED ITALY.
Catholic Question Blocks tho Way Of
Successful Government.

Catholic Qusstion Blocks tho Way Of :
Successful Government.
Both young and old, the holy father
said at Christmas, were wanted In the
Christian movement for the upraising
OF the people, and young and old must
work hand in hand. These frequent
exhortations of the pope to union
among Catholics suggests the existence
OF causes Of dissension, says the Tab
let
There are Catholics of the old school,
fond OF quiet life, who refuse to take
note OF the changed conditions Of the
times; on the other hand, there are
ardent young spirits who forget that
there has been a past at all, and who
seek to impress their own ideas whole
and entire, as in new creation, on the
Italy Of today.
To these especially the holy father
addresses former instruction on the
social movement, in which he urges
that It must be in continuity with the
past, must draw its inspiration from
religion, and its direction from the
pastors of the church. There have
been some few who were ready to leave
the Roman question and the rights of
the holy see in the background in their
eagernesS to prove the democratic
character of the Catholic movement.
The Roman question does undoubtedly
block the way Of the italian govern
ment, whose path will never be smooth
until it has solved it to the satisfaction
Of the pope.

SCARF PIN COLLECTION.
Udd Fnd Of Some Prominent New York

udd End of Some Prominent New York
Society Mon.
Collectors Of scarf pins-or tie pins,
to be moro correct-are one of the
fads Of New York men. The recent
robbery Of Paul Gilbert Thebaud by
his valet revealed that Mr.. Thebaud
was one who cultivated this hobby.
One Of the largest collections Of the
kind was left some years ago by Jim
mie" Wood, an eccentric bachelor, we'll
known in New York society, who lived
at the old New York hotel. Mr.. Wood
left nearly 500 pins, which were dis
tributed to various friends. He was a
bachelor and a native of Baltimore.
His hair and whiskers were fiery red,
and for long time he dyed them,
making them almost supernatural and
Mephistophelean in their effect. Sud-
denly he gave up the deception, and
afterward appeared with snow-white
hair and side appendages. He was al
ways in love with the last society
beauty, but he would never propose.
and he took deepest umbrage If any Of
them married. To one daughter of a
socially prominent family, famous
beauty still, he had left large sum
In his will. On her marriage, however,
he managed to change the amount of
zeroes and the punctuation point SO
that her dowry from him fell from
thousands to hundreds-not being in
clined to further express his dissat-
isfaction in legal codicil.
William Cutting and Center Hitch
cock have collections Of the pins al
most as extensive as is that of Mr..
Thebaud. Many Of these were given
them at weddings at which they were
ushers.

What Results from Electricity.

Although the predictions freely
made few years ago that the deveI
opment of electric traction would
quickly drive horses from the field OF
labor have not been fulfilled, yet the
Electrical Review cites statistics to
prove that the disappearance Of the
horse is actually taking place, al
though SO slowly as not to attract
much attention. In Paris the number
of horses fell OF about 6 per cent be-
tween 1901 and 1902. In London the
decrease In the same time was 10 pei
cent. In Berlin, Vienna and st. Pc.
tefsburg similar falling OF is shown
by the census of horses. In New York
It is estimated that the number OF
horses has decreased 33 per cent in
