POPE SAYS HIS END rs NEAR.
His Easter Encyclical to the Bishops
Testament,

A special dispatch to the New York Sun
from Rome, dated March %, says: The
Osservatore Romano. the organ of the Vat
lean, prints the encyclical issued by the
pope today, in which he says the time has
come when he must recognize that he is
approaching the end of the term of his life
on earth and that this encyclical should be
his testament to the Catholic Church.
The pope says he would encourage the
Catholic bishops throughout the world to
continue vigorously to resist the persecu-
lions which now affiict the church These
prosecutions will continue, but they will not
affect the spread of the light of Christ
among infidels. Never has humanity found
itself in more miserable conditions than at
present There is disorder in all social re-
lations and especially in family relations;
excessive liberty has been created which
has fostered socialism and anarchsm.
Unjust wars, the encyclical says. are
being waged by strong nations against
weak and feeble peoples. There are exag
gerated ornaments among great nations.
the effects of which are even more disas-
trous than war. All these things have
created worldwide inQuietude Unceasing
troubles and misery have provoked the peo-
pie to anarchism which henceforth prom
Uses to constitute a formidable league
against emperors, kings and presidents of
all governments. These governments must
adopt decisive measures for the defence of
genuine liberty and must enforce the teach
Ing of religion.
In conclusion the pope invokes the union
Of Christian churches as the leading RENEE
dy to save society from the violent attacks
OF atheists and freemasonry. He maintains
the necessity of upholding the temporal
rights Of the church and counsels the act
i've spread of Catholic workmen's societies.
His holiness thanks the bishops for their
friendly manifestations on the occasion of
his jubilee and proceeds to deplore the
spread Of atheism. which he finds to be in
vading all departments OF the state. He
also condemns the forthcoming institution
of the law of divorce in Italy, and urges
all Catholics to combat doctrines contrary
to religion.

a scandalous scene i'm the presence of the
ambassador.
The minister was invited to make the trip
TO Massachusetts by the Springfield board OF
trade. All his expenses We're to be paid by
that body and all arrangements were 10 be
in their hands. The plan was for him to
receive the ladies of the members OF tho
banquet in the evening and then go to
Fitchburg and back to Washington. with
out returning to Springfield.
But. unknown to the board. the members
of the Woman's Club telegraphed to Mr.
WI an invitation to a reception at the resi-
dence of Mrs George p. Holbrook on Sat
urday. This invitation he accepted. When
Mr.. WI was found to be too tired to re-
ceive the wives of the members OF the

Finally compromise was effected. In
stead of the Saturday reception being ex-
clusiyely for the members of the WomaBs
Club and at a private house. ii was agreed
that the reception should be joint affair
for the club and the women relatives OF tho
members of the board of trade who had
been disappointed on Thursday. and should
be held in the High School Hall
+. But, although this compromise was put
into effect, there was still much ruffied
pIumage. and q statement issued by the
committee of the board did not have very
soothing influence
