I do not know how to account for this, but I do know it to be fact Bishop Satterlee, of the Episcopal church, made this dec laration in a sermon here tonight in which the main subject of his discourse was Divorce" Men, said the bishop, are losing respect for the home and car- ing less for the family-the unit of our civilization. On the shoulders of the husbands and fathers of the land, he continued, rests the responsibility for the low estate to which the family has fallen in this country. This fostered and encouraged the greatest curse of the age-divorce--and the loose manner in which the sacred marriage VOWS were being kept.
 ''The great evii-the most frightful danger-of our age is divorce and the breaking down of the family institu- tion," said the bishop. s If it is not stopped the women of this country and our race will be degraded within fifty years"

The big car gained nomen- tum every second and Harry Catlin was trying to get his carriage off the track, but failed and 1t was wrecked complete ly. The car dashed through the safety gates, struck an empty refrigerator car and the moving freight train. turned it over and derailed several other cars.

 "Proclanat tions have been issued re- peatedly strictly forbiddfng any revival of the disturbances of 1900, which were originated by the Boxers but Kan Lin Chiang and his party, having no regard for the law, assembled lot of people to form a. band Of Boxers and drilled them in the dead of night. When they were being searched for by the civil and military officers they dared to re- sist arrest and killed and wounded sev- eral officers. Thereupon seven of them were killed, men and women, and their heads exposed as a warning. Ten oth-' CTS, men and women. were arrested and their swords, spears, flags pennons.f charms and pledges, all proofs of their evil designs, were brought to light. @=

KING EDWARD AND THE POPE.
Question of Royal Visit ssiil a Mys-
 eePy.

Rome, April 19.-Whether or not King Edward will visit the pope continues to be profound mystery. No official communication on the matter has yet been received but the vatican is of the opinion that King Edward cannot fail to meet the pontiff if for state reasons alone, as his announced visit to Ireland will soon take place. Should he slight the head of the Roman Catholic church he certainly would arouse the resent ment of S,5O00Oo Catholics in Ireland. and for no apparent or practical rea- son, especially as the feeling in Eng land towards Catholics is now very moderate.

His Contention That fIle Toscai, elii
 Letter Was Forgery.
 Paris, April 19.--Henry vignaud, first secretary of the United States embassy here and vice president of.the Ameri- canists' society of Paris, has closed his controversy with Sir Clements Mark ham, president of the Royal Geograph-s ical society, which arose from the pub-. lication of his book "Toscanelli and Columbus'' by publishing Clements MarlShams last letter and his reply thereto. MT. Vignaud brings out sew eral new points going to show that the letter of Toscanelli, the famous Floren3 tine astronomer, was q forgery; he de-. clines, however, to fix the responsible ity for it. He points to the probable sources of the statements of various authors who hitherto have been relied upon as proving the existence of the letter and comes to the conclusion that if the letter was spurious Columbus may have remained in ignorance of the fraud and hence could not be expected. to mention a fact of which he was not aware, or of which he disapproved if he was aware. MT. Vignaud says If the letter was genuine Columbus was guilty of hiding the source to which; he owed the circumstances that to-day constitute his chief title to glory and of claiming as his own the trophies stolen from. Toscaneili. In the first instance the conduct of Columbus is capable of natural explanation; in the second nothing can serve to remove from his memory this stain which his action in delibly has impressed thereon. <,

Vignaud said: "The work is intended to show that for the last four centuries we have been deceived by fraud which hides from us the real begin- nings of Columbus project and that the famous documents ascribed to Tos- canelli were fabricated. submit ex- cellent reasons for believing that Tos- canelli never wrote the letter of 1474 to the king of Portugal and never traced the chart alleged to have accompanied it.
