Bishop Was Kidnapped.
There is quite story connected with the
late Bishop Charyniewiachki, predecessor
Of Bishop Ropp in the diocese Of Wilma.
He, too, had very liberal views, and openly
advocated Them much to the annoyance of
the authorities. His independence and lib
eralism became so offensive to the govern
ment during the reign of Alexander III,
about fifteen years ago, that one day he
disappeared from Wilma in a most mysteri-
GUS manner. Somebody claimed to have
some distance from the city, going north
ward, but no explanation was made, and
the governor general at Wilma notified the
ecclesiastics that: any inquiry as to the
ance would be disastrous to him.
Matters went along as usual In the do
cese under a coadjutor who was appointed
from Rome. and the fate Of the good
though 1t was the topic Of private discus
sion and conjecture. Year after year. went
by, and he was not heard from. About
ten years ago, after the coronation Of the
present car, there were serious disturb
ances among the Roman Catholic popula-
tion Of Poland. and the car sent q special
ambassador to Rome to ask the interview
ton of the pope. Cardinal Rampolla, then
papal secretary of state, received the Rus
sian with his usual courtesy, but calmly In
formed him that the holy see was at pres
emit unable to give any attention to the
Polish disturbances; that the only man
who would be able to exercise any infiu-
ence whatever was Bishop Chrynle wachki
Of Wilma. who, unfortunately. was not at
his home: His whereabouts were UNI
known. His eminenee further suggested to
the Russian ambassador that as soon as
the bishop could be found he would be in
structed to visit Poland and use his DOW
erful influence upon the local clergy in be-
half Of the peace and tranquility.
Within three weeks the missing bishop
appeared in Rome and reported that he
had been kidnapped by the Russian police
and taken to a small village near Archan-
gel. within the polar circle, where he had
been living more than five yeaY without
being allowed to communicate with his
priests or his people. He had been kindly
.rea1ed ana several times had been offered
his liberty If he would turn his support to
the government. His release had been or
dered, he explained. upon his pledge that
no public notice would be taken of his ex-
perfence.
He was sent to Poland as Cardinal Ram
polla suggested, and, being Of Polish birth,
was able to exercise SUFFICIENT influence to
Quell the disturbances. He was then made
diocese In Polish Austria, where he died
three years ago.

Merry del Val Not to, do.

The report from Rome that the pope
intends to- remove Cardinal Merry del Val
from the secretaryship OF state and replice
with with a prelate more conciliatory to-
ward France Is unfounded. The cardinal
ts said to enjoy the full confidence of
the pope. The municipality OF Castel Gam

pope9 is situated, has asked government
authorization to tax the land belonging to
the Holy See, which II Is estimated should

holds that only the papal palace itself
should be exempt from taxation. Probably

GR0CERs' MEETING SUCCESS
Convention in Spokane Results in
Much Good
N. c. MGREW DESCRIBES HIS VISIT
FINDS SPOKANE GROcERs ARE
NOT so FAR AHEAD OF
WALLA WALLA.

M. c. McGrew, the well known AL
der street grocer, returned yesterday
from Spokane, where he went as a
delegate to the State Retail Grocers
& General Merchants association
meeting in the Falls city four DAYS
last week.
Regarding his visit Mr.. McGrew
said:
"This years convention was in every
way a gratifying success. The num-
Der attending the convention was large
while the work accomplished was val
liable and of kind bound to have a
far-reaching effect for better things,
both for the grOcers and their patrons.
can important resolution passed
by the convention was that of recon-
mending to the National Grocers' AS
ISOLATION the passing of a stringent
pure food law; also laws demanding
of the manufacturers full weights
and full measurements

pertaining to the grocery business?"
was question put to Mr.. McGrew.
Picked Up Ideas.
Eyes, undoubtedly did pick up a
few ideas about the business at the
convention, still, from what 1 could
see in Spokane, I do not think the
grocers of Walla Walla are much be-
hind in the race of giving their patrons
an up-tO-date service and merchan-
die that is as good as can be had
anywhere. Regarding the delivery of
groceries to the homes of customers
was surprised to learn that the lead
ing retail grocers of Spokane make
only two deliveries a day. Orders for
morning delivery close at $3.50 and the
wagons are sent out at 10; afternoon
orders close at $3.50 and the wagons
leave the store at 4 p. m. If we had
any such snaps as this in Walla
Walla the local grocery men wouldn't
put the number of horses out of bust
ness each year that they do
Hear anything about Walla Walla
up in Spokane?" asked the reporter.
"Well, 1 guess I did. They all think
the Walla Walla fruits and vegetables
are the best they see and they want
to know why we do not grow more
of them. Many prominent delegates
to the convention thought that we in
the Walla Walla valley ought to go
in for a closer and more extensive Gull
tivation of all kinds of fruits and veg
