told SUN reporter that prayers had been
offered in most of the Catholic churches in
New York yesterday for the recovery Of

seen at Holy Cross rectory. "The death
OF Pope Leo XIII. means an irreparable
loss, not only TO the Catholic world. but
TO the whole Of Christendom, and especially
TO America.
"The Pontiff has been one Of this country's
trlest friends. He took a personal interest
in events here and his greetings to Ameri-
cans have ever been most cordial. He
has often said, In all my sorrow and dis
appointments in other lands, America is
my comfort The progress OF the Church
here has been one Of the greatest happinesses
in his life. The hierarchy is Of his max
ing. and he has shown many proofs Of his
keen interest in the American Church and
State.
I'VE should all pray that he will live to
solve the unhappy problem Of the French
trouble, which is one OF the most serious
affairs Of the Church to-day"
Mgr. Mooney said that Archbishop Farley
will call general service of prayer to-day
if the reports OF the Pope's condition are
still serious.
Had the Archbishop been here to-day,
! believe he would have sent out instr,lc-
tions for prayers for the Holy Father at all
the services, said Mgr Mooney But
without an ORDER believe, this was gener
ally done. not only in the New York arch
diocese, but throughout the Catholic world. y

TomorroW'S Election News.

Although tomorrow's elections are not of
a general character, and do not cover as
much ground as in some other years, there
is keen public interest in this city in the
results. and The Star, in keeping with its
custom, has prepared to give the earliest
ports of the balloting. 1t has arranged, as
in the past, with both of the telegraph COM
panies for special service throughout the
day and evening, and these bulletins will
be printed in its regular and extra editions,
together with the reports of the Associated
Press and the dispatches of it's staff and
special correspondents at the points of
greatest interest TOmOrrow's Stars will,
therefore. present the fullest possible ac-
counts of the voting. while the screens in
front of the building Immediately after
darkness falls will begin to show all bule-
tins received. This screen service will be
continued as late as the situation warrants
The three points of greatest interest are
New York city, Maryland and Ohio, and
especial attention has been paid to the Sc
curing of prompt and reliable returns from
all three. Readers of The Star and those
who assemble in front of its stereopticon
screens will be enabled to know the re-
suits in all of these places before they sleep
tomorrow night unless the count is too slow
or the results too close for immediate re-
port or estimation

Dishonesty in College Sports.

For years a controversy has ragged over
the utility and desirabiity of athletics for
students. The consensus of opinion has
seemingly been that it is well to encourage
indulgence in physical exercise and COM
petitive sports on the part of students, to
give them a necessary relaxation from men,
tai labors and to train their growing bodies.
At all events, college sports have survived
violent criticism spread over decades, and
there is little likelihood that public senti-
nent will radically change on this subject.
But among the rational believers in college
athletics there has been an insistent de-
mand for comparative safety and absolute
honesty. Physical Disagreement and dis
ablement is distinctly condemned by the
sound public judgment. and, in consequence.
the present tendency is toward the restric-
ton of the games in the interest Of the saw
ing of life and limb. Until now no question
has been raised as to the honesty Of student
players. 1t has remained for Principal
Stearns of the Phillips Academy at Ando-
ver Mass, to declare that college sport Is
not honest, that 1t is exercising a baleful
influence on the moral natures of the young
men of this country. Said he in a speech
before Chicago academic institution:
sly and underhand practices are en-
cOuraSeu just SO lar as ueteCtlOn does not
ensue To the average schoolboy the COL
lege athlete is a hero. and this man, l re-
gret to say, often spends his time in teach
Ing deceit to lads of the preparatory
schools.
II have seen many an athletic coach de-
voting hours to teaching young followers
how they may cleverly disobey rules Of the
game without risk of detection, and think
| am safe in saying that the majority OF
coaches are given to this practice. have
heard boys complain that they were advised
that a little profanity would tend to discon-
cert their opponents.
The rules against which coaches, accord
ing to Mr.. Stearns, conspire with their pu-
pills are designed to keep the sports from
being brutally rough. Thus the dishonesty
which he charges aims at both the whole
some functions of college athletics. It
teaches the players to be brutal as well as
unfair. There Is not much left The mere
physical training 10 Of no value whatever

Minister Beaupre's Visit.

The following announcement is Of inter-
est:
THE State Department has granted
United States Minister Beaupre leave of alb
sence from his post at Bogota. and he will
return to tho United States at once. This
Is a sign that there is no present expecta-
ton of the immediate resumption of neSo-
tiations for a new canal treaty, as the Co.
lombian congress adjourns today"
1t is likewise a sign probably that the
President wants fuller information than he
now possesses respecting the defeat of the
canal treaty at Bogota and the situation in
Colombia as affected by that act The
news we have had in this country on the
subject has been both meager and unin-
forming. and now is the time for all the
facts to be arranged and submitted. Pre-
sumably Minister Beaupre is able to lay
them before the President, and assist him
with some valuable suggestions of one kind
and another A few personal interviews
will be worth reams of correspondence.
If we may guide by public sentiment as
expressed through the medium of the two
great political parties and the daily press,
1t is safe to say that the American people
want an isthmlan canal. and want work on
IT to begin at the earliest day possible. They
are able to pay for it. and of course intend
to control it. But this is not to imply that
they will submit to any extortion as to
money terms, or that their control will
menace in any way the peace of the terri
tory through which the canal passes. They
will pay a fair price. and will exercise their
powers for the local we'll as the general
advantage. Whatever plans there may he
In Colombia, therefore. to hold us up on
the price, hamper to authority
within the canal zone. will fail. If we can
not do business with Colombia, we probably
can with Costa Rica and Nicaragua; and
the opening of negotiations in the latter di-
rection would be agreeable to a good many
people.
This is not political question. AS already
stated. both parties are on record in favor
of a canal. and both parties voted in Con-
gress for the treaty which has failed at
BOgota. But nothing is palmer than that
the Presidents opponents will attempt to
give the question political twist if there
is too great procrastination in bringing
matters to head. AS the phrase is, it Is
up to the President. Congress has spoken,
and Colombia has rejected the terms Of
Congress, and her own terms according to
the signature of her accredited agent. If
this means eXtortion-and such is the in
depreciation generally put upon it-then the
sooner Colombia is advised that extortion
can't win the better.

Kentucky and Republicanism.

This from the Providence, Rhode 1Sldho'
Journal indicates a very limited acqualnt-
ance with Kentucky affairs:
..Republicanism would have a better
chance in Kentucky this year II the one
dose of it which the state once TOOK hdo
been little less nauseat1ng.
The only dose of republicanism that
Kentucky has had was between the years
1895 and 1899, and. according to the verdict
rendered by the people at the polls IN the
latter year it was eminently satisfactory.
In 1895 General Hardin was nominated
for governor by the democrats on a plat
form which in it's money deliverance had
been shaped by Mr.. Carlisle, then Secretary
of the Treasury NThe candidate. being
free silver man, was induced by some OF
his friends to repudiate the platform, and
this caused a serious division in his party.
AS result, the republicans, for the first
time in the history of the state were
triumphant at the polls w. o. Bradley.
their candidate, was a man of ability and
experience and, by general consent, he
gave the state an excellent administration.
Had he been eligible under the law for
second term he would have been renomi-
mated and reelected.
Among the officials who shared in Gov.
Bradley's success was w. s. Taylor. the
attorney general, who had been elected on
the Bradley ticket and so strong was he at
the close of the term that the republicans
nominated him to succeed Bradley in the
governors chair. He made thorough can
vass. and was everywhere enthusiastically
received He was elected beyond a doubt,
and was awarded the certificate by an cleo
ton board composed of three democrats.
The democratic candidate in this race was
William Goebel. who, unlike General Har-
din refused to bow to the popular will, and
set up a contest in the legislature, where
he had the advantage. In the midst OF the
excitement he was shot by some unseen
man. but while on his death bed was sworn
in as governor. This passed the office to
Mr.. Beckham, the candidate for lieutenant
governor on the Goebel ticket, and he, to-
gether with the other democrats on the
democratic ticket, came into power, when,
as a matter of fact, the people at the polls
had decided in favor of the republicans.
We see, then that the Bradley dose" of
people voted for second dose under
Taylor but were denied it by the use of
chicanery by the opposition Some of the
most eminent democrats of the state, men
of the stamp of General Buckner, General
Duke and ex-Congressman Owens, want
that party's candidate for governor in the
present race, but whether they are to get
it will be decided on Tuesday.
