seau, prepared the associations bill,
the aim of which was to enable the
government to declare null and void
any association which in character,
design and influence was deemed con-
trary to law; to force native assocla-
tions to acknowledge the sovereignty
of the state; to compel associations
in France controlled by outside au-
thority to submit to the most search
ing examinations concerning their
object and the manner in which they
did business.
No direct mention was made in the
bill of the religious orders, but
nevertheless they came under the
laws operation. The bill became
law July /, 1901, and the orders were
given six months in which to apply
for authorization; then the time was
twice extended for three months.
Some of the orders complied, Others
refused. Against many of the latter
DEGREES were issued and their schools
were closed, often with displays 81
violence.
An understanding of this paradox
zeal method on the part of govern
ment (whose officers are Catholic)
against Catholic schools, may per-
haps be partially explained by the
following words of NJ. Waldeck-Rous-
seau: 1T is said that we wish to
suppress the religious orders; but
there is no word in the bill to sug-
gest that they are to be suppressed
or that no new orders can be formed
Our opponents should tell the truth
and confess that they are protesting
against the orders being subjected
to the civil law. And if these orders
are essential to the church, how is il
that the concordat did not restore
them or recognize them, instead of
speaking only of the secular clergy"
From this standpoint the whole
contest is matter of main
tanning the sovereignty of the
state over that of the Holy
See. At present the religious
orders owe a direct allegiance to the
pope; when they apply for state au
thorization they come in measure

Harms Prnene.r.

Notwithstanding that the past
farming season in Wisconsin was a
disastrous one with respect to the
corn crop, perhaps less than 80 per
cent. of that produce raised in the
state being of such quality as TO be
considered understandable" the sea-
son was a favorable one to farmers.
This is the conclusion reached by
John NJ. True, secretary of the state
board of agriculture, in his revised
crop report, which he has just is
sued. According to the report there
were 8,155,O0O acres of the IL leading
crops-wheat, rye, barley, oats, corn,
buckwheat, faxseed, potatoes, beans,
peas, tobacco and tame hay-raised
in the state in the season of 1902.
The aggregate value of the crops
raised on this area, as estimated by
Secretary True, is $97,794,5OO.

under the bishops, who are directly
under the control of the govern
ment
| Pope Leo has left the whole de-
cision of surrender to the law, or
emigration, to the conscience of the
members of each order. However
| he states:
eve emphatically reprobate such
laws because they are contrary to the
natural and evangelical right of Che
church to found religious institutions
exclusively subject to its authority"
A writer, who makes plea for the
religious orders, refers to this state
ment of NJ. Waldeck-Rousseau "TwG
bodies of youth are growing up in
our midst ignorant OF one another
and so much unlike that they run the
risk of not being able to understand
one another. Little by little, two
sections of society are thus prepared,
one carried by the current of the
revolution further and further in the
direction of democracy, and the 9th
er more and more deeply imbued
with doctrines which one would have
thought had not survived the great
movement of the eighteenth cen
fury" In reply to this the writer
mentioned says: "It is true that
there are growing up two jeunesscs
in France, and that the manhood Uf
the nation is being divided between
two hostile camps. 1t is hard for the
| EngIishman to understand
by what an unbridgeablc gulf the
| Catholic and seculariSt parties are
divided in France. The I'M
believer in France is essentially u
proselytiser. And precisely because
he knows the schools of the religious
orders, attracting the elite of the
youth to France, are the strOngholds
of religion, he is minded to destroy
them by any means in his power.
And there you have the central pur-
pose of the associations law" Speak
ing of the application of religious
orders for authorization he says:
GAS a preliminary to an applica-
ton for authorization every religious
order is required to furnish the gov
eminent not only with a detailed
statement as to it's income and eX-
penditure and an inventory Of all its
property, real and personal, but also
list of its members with their
names, ages, nationality, etc. Re-
ceiving all this, the government is un-
der no sort of obligation to grant the
desired authorization. Even if the
authorization be granted the gift
may be only in the nature of a re.
prieve. In word the orders are in
vited to put their heads into sack
and see what will happen to them.
At the same time there is a strong
probability that the majority of the
9,307 religious houses which have
asked for authorization will obtain
it. This is eminently a case in which
iudicious minister will elect to take
two bites at his cherry. At the out
set they get rid, as it were, auto
matically, of the most dreaded OF the
great teaching orders, and the Others
NAV be humored for the present, it
being well unders TODD that they may
! be devoured at leisure"

LYNCHED WRONG MAN.
Investigation Shows That tn" Negro
Hanged by Mob in Kansas Was
Not Slayer of officer.

Pittsburg, Kan, Dec. Eft is re-
ported that Joe Cooley, bro of
Montgomery Cooley, who was lynched
by mob here Thursday morning, is
wounded and in hiding at Weir City,
Kan, and later investigation of the
trouble between Officer Hinkle and the
Cooley brothers tends to show that
Joe, and not the man who was lynched,
fired the shot which killed the police
man. Two other brothers, Gus and
Jess, are in Jail at Girard, charged with
being implicated in the murder, but
Joe escaped. The mother of the God
ley boys is said to have asked a physi-
clan here to treat Joe for gunshot
wound in the neck. She would not tell
the whereabouts of her son, and the
doctor refused to go with her. The Of
fcer's revolver, with which he was
killed, has not been found, and it is be-
heved that the man who did the kill
ing has the pistol in his possession.

He received a good education. show
ing an especial interest in the study
of political economy, and - as
was to be expected of a citizen of
that America to the south-of war
fare. He early exhibited an interest
in public affairs, and was associated
with the local government of Los An
des, where he occupied high positions.
AS both boy and man, he has shown
great capacity for work, fairly bub-
bling over with energy.
He began his national career when
he was sent as deputy to the Nene-
zuela congress. His oratOry made
him prominent, and during the short
administration of President Palacio
his influence was very considerable.
Then Crespo came into power, in
1892, and Castro, not at all in accord
with the new executive, retired for
a season from helping guide the I'M
steady ship of state. He went back
to his home, not far from the CO.
lOmbian boundary, and the next six
years lived on his plantation. But
the energetic Castro was not content
a planter (if a planters life in Vene-
zuela be tame); no, he felt called
by duty, or ambition, or restlessness,
who shall say--to plot and scheme
for a government in which he should
have a hand.
When Andrade began his little day
as head of affairs, Castro decided his
own opportunity had arrived; and,
all enthusiasm. started for the CAPT
tai to offer his services to the pro
tenn. executive.
The story goes that Andrade not
only refused the proffered services,
but ridiculed the aspiring planter.
The energetic Castro became the in
suited Castro. He returned again to

HER BOW TO SOCIETY.
An OId-Fashioned Afternoon Recep-
tom for the Introduction OF
the Debutante.

How shall a girl be introduced?-
at reception, at dance or at Sc
ries of dinners given by the immedi-
ate family or by friends? The old
fashioned reception covered multi
tude of sins, for it was possible, even
with an enormously long visiting
list, to give on entertainment anal
not hurt any ones feelings, since all
ages could be included in the invita-
lions and, like a wedding, many indi-
viduals of social standing, who had
not taken any prominent part in So
cial life, could be remembered. For
the last few years. however, these
large afternoon receptions have been
going out of fashion, says a society
paper.
Four days are often chosen when
the mother and daughter receive
their friends. The idea of the four
days is that there may not be too
many people present at one time. The
difficulty is that each one of the
guests is likely to wait until the last
day, so that the preceding afternoons
will be dull, and the fourth so crowd
ed as to be unbearable. With long
visiting list, even after it has been re-
vised by some social mentor, it is inn
possible to invite even desirable ac-
quaintances to dinner and to go
through the list would be to take up
every evening during the season. A
dance can include but one set, or, at
the most, two-the debutantes and
the younger married peOple-and
then there will be no end of heart
burnings and jealousies, for few pr
vate houses have ball rooms large
enough to invite everybody who is de-
| sirable and to maintain a rigid exclu-
| siveness is possible only to favored
few. But this problem has to be
| faced by many mothers of debutante
daughters, and consequently there
will be every form of entertainment
given. The old-fashioned reception
card to the effect that Mr.. and Mrs.
and Miss Blank will be at home from
| four to seven will be the accepted
| form of invitation, and Mrs. Blank
and Miss Blank will receive Mrs.
Blanks and Miss Blanks friends
(and enemies) while Mr.. Blank will
put in an enforced appearance late
in the afternoon. In this way at
least 1000 persons can be disposed of

mentioned above, he became acting
| president, and then, by formal cleo
ton, executive of the country.
Scarcely was Castro installed as
president when Gen. Hernandez, who
had helped Castro in warning against
Andrade, took up arms against his
late ally. Hernandez is a profession
| al stirrerup of revolutions, has been
at this work the last 80 years. Well,
he succeeded in melting quite revolt
against President Castro, and it was
only after a lot of bloodshed and
trouble that he was defeated and cap
tured. Hardly was the Hernandez
rebellion put a stop to before am
other one raised it's head; leading it,
Gen. Paladio, liberal, of the same
party as the president, and at one
time a follower of his. More strife
and disaster for the country result
ed, but finally a truce was called.
President Castro got mixed up in the
Colombian revolution, as though he
did not have troubles enough of his
own! To-day, poor Venezuela is dis
rupted with serious broils within and
serious broil with certain big pow
ers without. And it does seem to the
onlooker that Castro, in his refusal,
so long and stubbornly persisted in,
to submit matters to arbitration, and
| in the high-handed manner in which
he kept forcing his country into war
Expressing in some districts all la
borers between the ages of IS and so
into the army has not acted with
| the discretion which is the better
part of valor, nor with the proper
consideration for the best interests
of his country.
Peace seems something Castro is
not to have much chance of expert
encing on this earth. Revolutions
galore he has had part in. Once,
when appearances of peace existed
in Venezuela, an assassin jumped into
his carriage and came within an ace
of committing the murder he had
been hired to accomplish. Once this
much-beset man was injured in an
earthquake that did much damage in
his country. An author writes thus
of him: THE general has been hav-
ing a busy time these last few years.
No one will grudge him whatever he
wins. His enemies say it will likely
be a bullet. 1t is more probable, how
ever, that having gone through so
much. he may live the remainder of
his life in quiet ease" 1T is needless
TO say these words were penned some
time ago. prior to the present bel
leUerCnt attitude of Great Britain
and Germany.
