Strong Drink the Cause.


 After the Sunday school had been dis missed and MT. Hall was standing by the doors exchanging greetings with the prls- oners, seven-tenths of them, it Is esti- mated, testified that strong drink had been the cause of their downfall.
 At the meeting were many noted crim- inals, among whom were Brewer, Fay and kennybrook, the trio who made such desperate attempt to dynamite their way out of prison few weeks ago. They occupied front seats and apparently seem ed to be greatly interested in all that was said
 Other interesting characters present were Joe Pate, who was sent up from Brookside a few months ago for mur- der. He is a trusty, and acts as store- keeper for the hymnbooks. Will Seilvy, a sometime prominent business man of Pickens county who is serving a sen tence for murder, is a trusty and head tailor. He is we'll educated and says he aid and other papers.
 Prison In Good Condition. The whole prison premises seem to be kept In an excellent condition. Time has proven that the state made no mistake in taking It's convicts in charge. The health of the convict body is good. The moral surroundings, If the term can be | used is better than it was under the lease system.
 Two pitiful sights at the prison that seemed to affect the large crowd of yisi- tors yesterday, were the cases of two young boys, one of them belonging to a prominent and wealthy family of Bir- | mingham and was born, so to speak, in the lap of luxury. The other is a son of high official of Montgomery. Both of these boys are still in their teens and both have been discarded by their fami- lies. Their names, 1t is said, are not allowed to be mentioned in their homes.

cioSh iO reason. The dlgc0V-
 cry or Copernicus. 1t has been said. is
 the death blow to Christianity: in other
 words' the recognition by the human race
 or the insignificant past which they and
 their planet play in the cosmic drama
 renders the Incarnation intrinsically in-
 credipie. What is man. that thou art
 mlndfui or him; and the Son of man, that
 .nou visltest him?' is a question charged
 by science with a weight of meaning far
 beyond what it bore for the poet whose lips first uttered 1t. And thou whose studies bring perpetually to their remem- brance the immenslty of this material world. and know how imperceptIble ia the impress made by organic life in gem eral and by human life in particular. find | 1t hard to believe that this petty satellite has been shown as the theatre of an event so solitary and so stupendous. If is nevertheless true that God has chosen just this method of saving his creatures from dspair in the good fight with their surroundings. Far as man climbs. the first forces he encountered is the form
 of appetite and passion, become as noth-
 ing to the appalling darkness through
 which he must go to find God. It is this
 very sense of the place occupied by man
 in the material universe that exacts in
 man. the moral being, a new need for Christianity. While, in one sense. the
 magnitude and complexity of the nat ural world should have no effect on our conception of Gods relation to us vet
 In another sense. 1t is idle to ask men to live in the world and yet unfettered bv the world when they feel that so much is against their finding held in the maker of the forces that pull them down. This puts Incarnation into different and far truer proportion. It abruptly changes the whole scale on which we might be disposed to measure the magnitude of the tnfty hot ,s-tk

ordinary attention he attracts ttn tie rare occasions of his visits there. This is partly due to the personality of the prelate himself. The real significance of 1t lies in what he represents. He is at present the only cardinal in North or South America. His vote, therefore. will be the vote, not merely of the nine mill lions of Catholics in this country, but Of a hemisphere. It may be said that the Spanish cardinals represent the views and interests of Central and South Amer lea. In vague and distant fashion they do. but the connection Is too remote to be worth discussing.
 But Cardinal Gibbons influence does not end here As Cardinal Vaughan Is now dead, England will be unrepresented in the conclave. The other two English speaking cardinals. Logue and Moran, are Irishmen. Cardinal Gibbons will thus. in way, represent the Anglo-Sax- on interests of the globe. No one famil- far with the church imagines that he is an even remote possible successor to Leo XIII But hls prestige Is undeniabie. It now appears as if Cardinal Rampolla were preparing to play the part or an ecclesiastical Warkick. If his reported alliance with Cardinal Gotti should con

CARDINAL GIBBONS.
He Will Be a Potent Factor in the Con-
 clave.

From the New York Evening Post.
 Before sailing yesterday Cardinal Gib- bons was besieged by reporters. whose questions he answered with his invariable courtesy, though at times he must have found it difficult to keep straight race. One, in particular, asked if, in his opin- ion "any American cardinal had chance for the papacy. Now, as Cardinal Gibbons is, himself the only living Amer ican member of the Sacred college, the question was a glowing tribute to the naivete of the reporter who asked it. Ills eminence is an adept in polite an swers which convey nothing whatever For instance. when he was last abroad a French interviewer had pleasing half hours talk with him, and extracted the information-that France was a beautiful country. But the fact remains that Cardinal Gibbons is force serious ly to be reckoned with in the next con clave. Those who have lived Tn Rome can not have failed to notice the extra

of education for Catholic children on a scale that is almost startling Scarcely T week passes in which the foundations Of new Heheelhouse, not like little bits of concerns, but structures of immense proportions. involving an expenditure of hundreds of thousands Of dollare, are not laid. The Catholic church is enabled to put forth these mighty efforts for the reason that most of its religious edlfiees are almost clear of debt, and the con- gregations of nearly all are an enormous, generous and many of them far richer, in the aggregate than those of other de- nominations. New York spends millions of dollars annually for public education, but if the whole number of Catholic children had to be provided for. the amount would be much larger. table of statistics in a Protestant Journal this week places the total number of paro- chial schools in the country at S400.
