STATE VS.. PARocHIAL SCHOOLS.
Paulist Father Delivers an Able
Catholic Presentation.

CHAUTAUQUA. N. Y. July 19-The dis
cussion of state VS.. parOchial schools was
continued at the assembly today by Father
Arthur p. Doyle of the Paulist Fathers,
who presented the Catholic view OF the
school question before large audience
Father Doyle said:
Originally America was deeply anu
profoundly religious country but the day Is
fast approa ching when that can no longer
be said with any truth Two generations
row. the children have been educated with
ont any effort to strengthen their religious
principles and In fact, the whole attitude
of the public school has been to discourage
and diminish interest in religious mau'srs
as secondary to industrial or political ampl-
ton and achievement
ASA result we are fast losing our Chris
tian ideals and drifting away into Pagan
ism. Disaster surely is written over our
future unless we do something 70 lnJect
the life giving principle into the piooo Oh
our nation. A.
..The Catholic Church. convinced OF the
danger, has spent three hundred mliioIi
dollars in building up a parish schooi sSS
tenn. This is her contribution to good clti-
zenship, and not one penny OF IL caihe
from public or private source
catholics are quite content with tne
American policy Of non-interference OF the
state in matters of religion. But wnere inc
state finds existing agencies doing It's WORK
of educating the children 1t is matter OF
economical civic administration to utlIlze
them and to pay for approved results. Inc
time may { me when the state Will neeo
more than now the strong and conservative
arm of the Catholic Church to baniSh the
socialism and suppress the laWleSSneSS
which present irreligion is surely breeding.

OWNERSHIP OF THE MAINE.
The Navy Department Holds That It
Cannot Abandon the Vessel.

Regarding the proposition that the old
battle ship Maine be raised in Havana har-
Dor, Acting Secretary Darling Of the Navy
Department has addressed the following
letter to r. H. F. Sewell of New Orleans:
Referring to your letter of July 1, stat
ing that you have a contract with the
Cuban government to float the wreck of
the battleship Maine in the harbor of Ha-
vana and requesting information as to
whether the United States government has
any claims upon the wreck, you are in
formed that on i5Hly IL 1902. the depart
ment stated it's position respecting the
wreck of the Maine in the following Ian
guase: 1872 :.
This department is not at present en-
gagged in and does not contemplate under
taking any work nnpons the wreck Of the
Maine. 1t is nOtTcDnsdered, however. that
the Navy Department. can. with proprlety.
in such case. give "a letter or other paper
which would be. An the nature of creden-
tials to be presented to- the Cuban govern
ment; nor is it understood that any execu-
tive department of the government has the
power on behalf of the United States to
abandon the wreck of a public vessel.
The disposition of the public property OF
the United States rests with Congress- and
this department would not undertake to
give an acquittance or REIMBURSEMENT of
any rights of the United States In the
wreck of the Maine for the obvious reason
that Congress might thereafter, at any
time. by enactment direct that different
disposition thereof be made"

Growing Plants.
From the Philadelphia Press


Flowers were advocated as a cure for
consumption by DR.. Frances Bartlett III a
paper which She read before the Botanical
Society Of Pennsylvania at the University
Of Pennsylvania last night. why send
consumptives and sufferers to Colorado to
benefit by the climate when we can bring
that climate into their homes by the simple
expedient of having growing plants In their
rooms?' was the gist of DR.. Bartlett's re-
markable remarks. Her paper was on
Flowers In the Sick Room" and in part
she said: Growing plants and especially
odoriferous Towering plants. are of the
greatest value in the treatment of the sick.
LAS long the plants are kept moist
they will diffuse moisture and they I'M
doubtedly have the power to produce
oZones. Some nlants will vaporize the at
MOSphere to the amount of three times
their own weight In day. In this way the
atmosphere of a sick room can be made of
the greatest benefit The only dangerous
plants to place in the sick room are those
which give off dioxide. but during the day
time the amount of oxygen they produce
neutralizes the harmful effects. At night
the DANGER lies In the greatly diminished
danger that in decomposing cut flowers will
give of poisonous gases.
1.-The chief cause eof colds Is found in the
habit of going from heated buildings into
the cold street If people could only be pre-
vailed upon to preserve an equable tempera-
ture and humidity by having plants grow
ing in their homes and places of business
the danger Of taking cold would be practi-
cally eliminated.

No Cause for Complaint.
Fine Japanese Chemists.
From the Lancet.


Probably no eastern nation is more
strongly represented than are the Japanese
in the English annals of science. and more
particularly in the literature of chemistry.
They possess an undoubtedly strong faculty
for original research, and they combine
this faculty with sharpsightedness as to
the possibilities of practical application Of
the fruits of research. The Japanese chem
list, in fact. unites the power of originality
of the English chemist and the practical
intuition of the German. At the University
of Tokyo practical study is very much
favored, and splendid facilities for work
are provided in the laboratories and work.
shops. There are several distinguished jap
anese chemists who fellows of the
English Chemical Society and who were
elected to the fellowship on account Of the
excellence of their contributions to original
science
The Japanese chemists discuss with
freedom which astonishes the western chem
list all the modern abStruse theories bearing
upon the atomic theory. the constitution Of
matter, the theory Of dissertation, and so
forth. They write powerful dissertations
on the views advanced by such esteemed
thinkers as Ostwald, Arrhenius. Want Hoff,
Kelvin, Thomson Lodge. Crookes, Ramsay
and others, and have offered valuable
criticisms on the methods of systematizing
and compiling atomic weights adopted by
western chemists.
Chemistry is powerful weapon in war,
and there can be little doubt that among
other things which have so far contributed
to Japanese success is sound knowledge
of explosives. their composition, action and
behavior under a variety of conditions.
When there is no longer any need for the
implements of battle-and may that soon
be-we may be pretty sure that the same
subtle insight which Is so marked a feature
of the japanese intellect will turn with
equal success to the application of science
to peaceful pursuits.
