in America, Cardinal SatpllI might
become the new project. But Leo
XIII has ruled otherwise, and with
probable benefit to the church at large;
for with all his acuteness and brill
liancy, Cardinal satolli may not com
mand the confidence of all schools of
thought and action within the church
as does Cardinal Gotti. The latter was
born in poverty at Genoa, but sue
ceeded in obtaining entrance to a
school in which he showed such rare
proficiency that his future was soon
assured. Although he took orders, he
did not lose affection for a favorite
study, mathematics, and, applying to
the government for the privilege of
teaching it in the Naval college at
Genoa, received the desired permits
sion; some of his pupils are now COM
manders of italian warships. Enter
ing the Carmelite order, he was adj
vanced to the procuratorship and n
naHy to the generalship OF that order.
Ten years ago the pope sent him on a
mission to Brazil Cardinal Gotti re-
manned three years In South America,
bringing about peace between the civil
and religious authorities, and also do
ing much in restoring discipline among
the latter. On this and other occasions
he displayed diplomatic qualities OF
the highest order.

The fact that considerable alarm is

wipe out the present surplus. Such q
deficit Is not expected by those In a
position to know, however, but what
they do fear is that there will be grad
ually growing deficits until the total
for the year may amount to a little
less than half that sum. While, with
surplus of s45,000,000 on hand, the
treasury would be frar from bank

SOOTHING VOICE.

DR. E.. J. Rogers, member of the
common council OF Stamford, Conn, Is
70 defendant of an old friend at the
stake, John Rogers, or he would have
more patience. Because he was
awakened at 40 a. m. by the sound of
a lawn mower on neighbours grounds,
DIR Rogers has proposed, and the COM
mite on ordinances is considering
an ordinance prohibiting the use of
lawn mowers in Stamford between 8
d. m and 6 a. m. The Stamford folks
are notoriously Industrious, and for
their own good their industry may
need to be regulated or curbed.
The sound of the whetting Of a
scythe may be a sweeter matin bell
than music of a lawn mower, but the
latter beats no i ancholy reveille It
makes a pastoral nd peaceful melody.
1t summons up il The luxurious mem-
ory the ha1f-aWalzening soon to go to

their sleeves rolled up, the soft swish
Of the falling grass, the sunny WIN
drows and the shade where jug of
something good and cold Is waiting.

The man who is angry because q
lawn mower is playing under his win
dow or his neighbours windows is ard
to please and quick to be offended. A
wise and thoughtful soul would wish
to be so awakened, just for the sake
of the contrast. There he Is, placid
on his bed The sea of sleep from
which he has only half emerged and
into which he is to plunge again so
soon is still humming in his ears. The
man outside is working: the man in
the bed is pleased by the thought of
that labor of others. Just as Keats
used to put pepper into his throat so as
to have better relish for caIet after.

made sweeter by the perception of the
toll of others. A lawn mower is an
agreeable instrument of labor, and has
