church, especially in English speaking
countries. AS an example this may be
cited the numerous pilgrimages which
came to the eternal city from all parts
of the world, for instance at the time OF
the celebration December %, 1887, OF
the jubilee of the pope's ordination 10
the priesthood. The jubilee service in
st. Peters on that occasion was attend
ed by $4,000 persons. AT the mass the
pope used the golden ever and basin
presented to him by the late Queen
Victoria and wore a tiara given by the
emperor of Germany. His holiness
also wore a magnificent diamond ring
sent him by the sultan of Turkey as
personal mark of his good will.
In February, 1900, the pope issued an
enyclical on Americanism which
caused much discussion and in June,
1901, he issued letter on labor, which
also aroused much interest.
On March 3, 1902, the late pope took
part in the public celebrations in honol
of the twenty-fourth anniversary OF
his coronation by holding a 'papal
chapel" in the basilica OF st. Peters,
on which occasion he was greeted by
$4,000 persons. This was the first time
a chapel" had been held in basilica
since 1870, such ceremonies having
heretofore taken place in the Sistine
chapel. Thirty cardinals were among
those present.
The late pontiff on March 20, 1902,
published long encyclical letter, the
tone of which suggested testamentary
recommendations, and in which he de-
plored the renewed attacks on the
church and the recent errors of hui
mainly" instancing divorce, and PIC
turing the present condition of society
as having drifted into a state OF
anarchy.
The twenty-fourth anniversary of
Pope Leo's coronations was celebrated
at the vatican July 6, 1902, by the en-
tire papal court and thousands of men,
bers of all the Catholic societies as
sembled in Rome for the occasion.
The last notable encyclical of Leo
XIII was dated October 80, 1902, and
was designed to promote study of the
scriptures, and in February of this
year he wrote a poem, dedicated to a
friend whom the pontiff desired to al
wise on the best means of prolonging
life.
The twenty-fifth anniversary of the
pope's election TO the chair of st. Peter
was celebrated February 20 of this
year with elaborate pomp in the hall
OF Qualification, above the portico or
st. Peters, on which occasion the ven
cradle prelate was presented with a
gold tiara, costing $4,000, and with
large sums of money from various
sources.
The celebration of the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the pope's coronation
occurred in st. Peters March 3 last
with all the impressiveness and grand
eur OF the Catholic church, and on
April 2S the pontifcate Of the pope
surpassed in length that Of st. Peter,
Leo XIII. having then been elected
pope twenty-five years, two months and
seven days, known as "the years OF
Peter"
King Edward visited the late pope
in the latter part of April, and EN-
peror William was received by him
early in May.

Cleveland's Speech Endorsed.
(By the Associated Press.)

Nashville, Tenn, April 15.-The State
Senate tonight after a spirited debate
adopted resolutions endorsing the speech
on the negro question delivered by former
President Grover Cleveland at New York
last night. The resolutions which were
introduced by Mr.. Norfieet of Shlby
county, say:
Whereas. there are many in the North
who do not understand the negro ques-
tion as it is correctly understood by
those of the South, who have for more
than three score and ten years met the
question face to face. and whereas, the
history of the world has taught that mis-
cegenation is to the detriment of civiliza-
ton. industry, intelligence and progress
or the betterment of human conditions,
therefore, be it
Resolved, by the Senate of the State
of Tennessee that the statements and
utterances of our ex-President upon the
racial question are true. and if followed
by the nation the question will be set
tied in accordance with truth, justice and
the dictates of conscience"

Washington, April 15.-The attention

effect that the United States Attorney

following statement was made by the de-

"The Treasury Department approved a
settlement in one of the pending cases,
en- the basis of relief from the criminal
liability upon payment of fine equal to
double the amount of duties. Instruction
to this effect was given to the United
State Attorney at San Juan by the So
licitor of the Treasury and upon inquiry
by the United States Attorney of the

cases should be dealt with in accordance
with their recommendation. The recon-
mendation was that all criminal proceed
ings should be dismissed and discon-
tinued upon the payment of the civil OBJ
legation, as above indicated. In accord
ance with this recommendation the At
torney General directed the United
States Attorney for Porto Rico to dismiss
pending cases and to present no more
cases to the grand jury until he was
otherwise instructed"
Postmaster General Payne also made a

further instructions. to which the Depart
ment has sent the following reply:
"Your duty is to obey my instruction.

Porto Rico or individuals involved have
moved after full investigation and de-
liberation, to course directed which will
be adhered to. But If grand jury calls

Pro Bono Publice

The above latin term aptly describes
just what the Carnival and Street Fair
does for the city or town in which it
is held. 1t benefits everybody and is
first, last and always for the general
good. 1t not only benefits the city by
advertising it and giving impetus to
every line of it's trade and traffic, but
1t divides it's profits with the business
men or some worthy fraternal or charlt-
able organization under whose auspices
it may be given. 1t helps build homes
for the aged, to assist hospitals to nurse
the sick, it aids fraternal bodies to COM
fort the living and bury the dead, it
assists asylums to get means to rear the
orphans. and it makes pleasant break
in the dull monotony of life and affords
that recreation, which in these days of
strenuous business pressure is not only
mercy. but is also a necessity. Fra
ternal bodies, hospitals, asylums
for children and a hundred and
one other worthy causes have been
the recipients of hundreds of thousands
of dollars as the result Of these events.
For these reasons the carnival spirit
will never die out and despite the vain
efforts of fy-by- night, rag-tag companies
which disgrace the name they bear, the
fttest will survive and such sterling or
CARNATIONS as the Gaskill Mundy Lev
lit Carnival Company which has been
specially engaged for the coming carni-
val in this city, will always hold their
own and command the respect and pat
ronage of the best people, as 1T always
has done. 1t will arrive in this city on
its own special train of 26 cars and will
present to our people nothing but what is
brand new, clean, moral and high class.
in the way of amusement attractions.
Among them will be numbered some of
the very latest European features. which
have been brought to this country at
great expense especially for this aggre-
cation.
