BLESSINGS OF POPE.

Cardinal Gibbons last night gave out
the following translation of the brief of
Pope Plus X relative to the Catholic
University in Washington, which was
brought by his eminence when he re-
turned from his attendance on the con-
clave:
ITO Our Beloved Son, James Cardinal
Gibbons, Cardinal Priest of The Holy
Roman Church, With the Title of San
ia Maria in Trastevere; Archbishop OF
Baltimore and Chancellor of the Cath
olic University at Washington.
"Beloved Son: Health and apostolic
benediction:
"The condition of the university at
Washington has enlisted our deepest
sympathy and concern, :nasmuch as the
report recently submitted by your emf
nence deposes that its affairs are not al
together 50 encouraging as we could wish.
II is meet that we should follow the
example of our predecessor in the fur
therance of noble project, more especially
such as are of great moment and hold out
the promise of large advantage. In this
spirit we are pleased to continue, and,
as far as may be, to increase IN the exer-
else OF the apostolic Office the interest
which we have ever cherished toward
this distinguished American foundation.
"Wherefore we learn with genuine
satisfaction that the bishops charged with
the approval Of all others interested in its
welfare, that collection be taken up in
all the churches throughout the United
States annually for ten years on the first
Sunday OF Advent or the first convenient
Sunday thereafter, with a view OF en-
hancing the dignity and enlarging the
influence of this noble seat of learning.
"This plan, the result Of their joint
deliberations, we consider most bene-
fetal. II is therefore our earnest wish
and prayer that all the bishops OF the
country as well as the faithful who have
at heart the progress of learning and re-
ligion should labor strenuously tor the
good of the university.
THAT God may be pleased graciOusly
to help this undertaking by his grace,
we lovingly import to you and to the
faithful committed to your care, the
apostolic benediction.
"Giyen in Rome, Mt st. Peters, on
the 9th day of September, 1908, the
first year of our pontificate.

DOGS AND GAME.-It is understood

Docs AND GAME.-It is understood
that the coming session of the General
Assembly will be asked to amend the
game law by making itunlawful for dogs
to run at large during the spring, sum-
mer and early fall months. 1t is hardly
possible for game to increase while null
titudes of dogs are allowed to ramble
over the fields and forests and destroy
wild turkey eggs, partridge eggs, young
partridges, young hares and other game.
One single dog is capable of destroying
and does actually destroy-hundreds of
bird eggs, young birds and young rabbits
during the summer months, and no game
law, however rigid, will ever accomplish
much while hundreds Of dogs run at large
in every county.

RUSSIA AND JAPAN.

1t was announced at the Foreign
Office in London yesterday afternoon, in
regard to the general situation in the
Far East and the position created by the
continued presence Of the Russian forces
in Manchuria, that the powers having
treaty rights with China affecting their
position and that of their subjects in
the Chinese Empire, including Man
churia, will require such rights to be
maintained unimpaired, whatever ar
rangement Russia makes with CHINA
If these rights are respected, the Brit
ish officials consider it improbable that
either Japan or any other power will be
disposed to thwart Russia's desire to
safeguard her special interests in Man
churia, or do anything which may
threaten peace in the Far East.
In spite of the reassuring statement OF
the Foreign Office and Baron Hayashi,
the FREQUENT reiteration that hostilities
between Russia and japan are i'm
mineut, the mysterious movements OF
the Russian and japanese fleets and the
excited state of public opinion in Japan
are beginning to cause disquiet in Great
Britain, which, by reason of her alliance
with Japan, is so intimately concerned
in any action which the latter may take
in the Far East.
Special dispatches describe Russian
war preparations, etc., and London
newspapers, which are intensely inter-
ested in the developments, owing to the
Anglo-Japanese alliance, are already
publishing maps and estimates of the
naval and military forces of the prospec-
tive belligerents and editorializing on
the possibilities of the situation. The
greatest attention is paid to the changed
tone of Baron Hayashi, the japanese
minister, who is much less confident
that peace will be preserved than he was
a week ago.
The announcement by NJ. Lessar, the
Russian minister to China, that the
Manchurian convention between Russia
and China has lapsed is received in
Yokohama with ridicule. Dispatches
from Cheefoo report that Russian war
ship and a transport with 500 troops left
Port Arthur October for Korea. Sixty
Japanese civilians left Port Arthur Oc
tober 10 for Nagasaki. The Russian
forces at Nieuchwang are reported to
have been increased. General Kodama,
the japanese home minister, has been
appointed chief assistant to the military
staff. The Premier will assume General
Kodama's portfolio.

When Sandow poses and the muscles

think we have before US the very secret
of strength in those magnificent muscles
But we haven't. Starve Sandow, or,
what is practically the same thing, les
him be dyspeptic, and his muscle would
soon fail. Strength is made from food
properly digested and assimilated, and
no man is stronger than his stomach, BE-

What the Miners Like and Don't Like
About the Report.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 21.-S.
NJ. Sexton, editor Of the United Mine
Workers Journal, IN commenting on
the strike commissions report, said
There are parts of the decision that
will probably not suit the miners. The
10 per cent increase can be taken,
suppose, as being in favor of the min
ers, though percentages are great de-
lusions. One Of the greatest points in
favor of the miner is the recommends.
ton for the withdrawal of the coal and
iron police, who are responsible for
most of the trouble and most of the
murders that occur in the mining re-
gions. The lessening of the working
hours for engineers, firemen and other
workers is a great point In favor of
the miners.
1.-The ruling against child labor is
also in favor Of the miner. The re-
Quirements that companies pay the la
borers Of contract miners is a safe
guard against unfair treatment and Is
favorable. The section in which the
commission takes grounds against
compulsory arbitration Is also favora-
BILE to the miners. The employment Of
check weighmen and the companies
collections for their pay and the distri-
button and regulation Of cars are also
favorable to the miners. The provi-
sion for the creation of a Cancellation
board to settle points of disagreement
will generally meet with the miners
hearty approval.
Though the commission does not res
quire the operators to recognize the
miners organization, In the organiza-
ton of this board Of Cancellation. the
recognition Of the organization is as
sured. The commission also suggests
the recognition of the organization in
several places. The decision itself rec
oognizes the organization. These points
at least are in favor Of the miners"

HOW TO WIN SUCCESS.

Success Is not for him of folded hands,
Sitting with slothful limbs beside Hfe's
gate;
Yielding his strength to pleasures silken
bands,
With ease and idleness for bride and
mate.
Nor yet is 1t for him who takes each hour
And robs 1t Of such JOY as 1t may hold
Then slumbers by the path that leads to
power
Till age creeps on him thus. and finds
him old.
But rather is success for him who COMES
Full OF high purpose and with soul SCI
date:
Strong set to riddle out lfe's tI,Asd
And passes thus through works wide
open gate.
Putting aside the weakening foible-ease;
Passing his slumbering brother on the
way;
Treading beneath his feet the lures that
please

That Stand Aloof.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March I'll
Realizing that every city, town and
hamlet in the United States has vital
interest in the workings of the new
militia law, to which he has given
much study, Secretary Root today or
dered to be made the report which the
war college board at his request has
prepared, explaining and commenting
upon the various provisions Of the
law, their proper Interpretation and the
best means for putting them into OPP
Grafton. The secretary has not ap-
proved the boards report. Gen. S. B.
NJ. Young, as president of the board,
submits the report.
Under the law the organized mill
tia are given until Jan. 81, 1908, to
adopt the Organization, armament
and discipline" of the regular and
volunteer armies" and within that time
the organized militia is expected to
conform as rapidly as possible to the
standard. 1t Is provided, however,
that on that date the standard must
be realized and thereafter becomes a
requirement. Another five years are
allowed the militia to attain to the
prescribed standard, Gen. Young's re-
port states that the law does not con-
template that that period shall elapse
before state, territory or the District
of Columbia shall take the reasonable
steps toward the attainment of the
standard
