Baptist. has received an interesting
letter from Rev. Father P. A. Halpin
formerly connected with the parish of
the Cathedral. but now en- route to
Manila, where he goes to study the
country. especially the condition of
the Roman Catholic Church.
The letter it dated at Nagasaki, ia
pan, Oct. "a. Father Halpin has prob
ably had the opportunity of seeing
something of the country, either
through his ships lying there for some
time, or possibly through stops at other
ports, for he says that the country is
beautiful beyond his widest dreams.
He says that he had experienced a
typnoon, mad. seen an unusual number
of whales, and for that matter had
seen all the wonders of the deep, ex-
cept the bottom of the ocean. Nor had
the voyage been very lonesome one,
for he stopped at Honolulu and at Yoka-
hama before reaching Nagasaki and at
Yokohama met an old friend in Rev
Father Chadwick. former chaplain Of
the Maine.
Father Halpin stated that he was in
good health and spirits and looked
forward with interest not only TO
reaching Manila, the end of his voy-
age, but to the stops that he expected
70 make at Shanghai. and at Hong
Kong before reaching the Philippines.

WHENCE THE BLACK rApq

The black cap, though not used ex- clusively in connection with the death sentence, yet owes its origin to it. Ac- cording to Sergeant Pulling, the coif was originally "of white lawn or silk, forming close-fitting head covering" |" and the sergeants, who were under an obligation to their order to display 1t, had the privilege of remaining covered even in the royal presence: Neither the justice nor yet the sergeant" runs quaint old authority, shall ever put off the quoiffe,. no not in the Kings presence, though he be in talk with His Majesty's highness." The black cap, which some persons have confused with the coif, was designed as a token of sorrow or mourning to cover the coif when sentence of death was passed. This was the one occasion on which, by the ancient rules of the sergeantsl the coif was allowed to be hidden It was intended to indicate that the adminis- tration of justice pronounced the dread decree in sorrow as we'll as anger.-Lon- don Globe.

 An attempt by J. B. Grosvenor to gain control of the bankrupt Driggs- Seabury Co. of Derby was prevented by Judge Thayer in the superior court yes terday. Grosvenor was an official of the company and has claim Of s9OO, 900 against it, $7OO,OOO of which was money lent. The court sometime ago ordered private bids for the sale of the proper, ty. Yesterday when the many lawyers in the case assembled it waa discovered that there was but one bid. That was Grosvenor's and in figures was $350,000 New York lawyers representing a fac ton of creditors did not want the sale confirmed to Mir. Grosnevor, stating that if two more weeks were allowed they might produce a purchaser who would pay s5O0,0 900 in cash for the plants. 5 It cdIliS OuL llldlly ludl tue peTSOH they had in mind was the president of the Bethlehem Steel company. This concern was purchased by Charles M. Schwab and turned over to big gun and ship building syndicate. With this in view the matter of accepting Grosvenor's of- fer was delayed by the court. It was discovered that his offer of $S5O,000 meant, by conditions attached, that he could get the plant for about $4O,000 cash. He was to pay in $15O.000. In a short time the United States govern ment will pay the concern $100,000 for guns. This Grosvenor would get. Judge Thayer pointed out that he was not favorably disposed to the $35O,0O0 offer.
 The Driggs- -Seabury company is work ing day, night and Sunday to get out the thirty-two guns due the government next Wednesday, which are worth $100,- 900. A fine of $320 day is inflicted for failure to deliver the guns on time.
