He Rebels Whom Twins Come.

George Hoffman, resident of Ashley,
Ps., does not agree with President
Roosevelt on the race suicide question.
Already the father of large family, Lis
wife gave birth to twins, and il angered
him. He became unruly at his home
and had to be locked up. When ar
raigned before Magistrate Donohne fri'
day he said

FRANCE AND THE VATICAN.

The church situation in France Is bt =
coming more sensitive daily. Accord
ing to information from reliable quarters,
Cardinal Richard yesterday received the
Pope definite Instructions relstive to De
cember |, when assessments will be
made. There is the keenest desire to
know their nature, but they have not been
published. However, word has come
unequivocaly from Rome to some inter
ested circles that the Pope personally is
much more inclined to a pacific, liberal,
aud concilistoyy attitude toward France
than has been generally supposed, or
would be judged from his encycllcal, but
Cardinal Merry del Val is determined to
prevent him from yielding, il possible.
Word has also come, on what appears
to be goodauthorilY, that American prel-
ates have expressed TO the Pope their
belief that France is in position TO carry
out the association law successfully, and
advising against an uncompromisiDg a.
titude on the part of the pontifi. 1t is
also said that Cardinal Satolli has sosor-
bed American ideas to the extent that he
has added himself TO those counseling
the Pope to conciliatory attitude,
The church and state conflict has given
rise toa curious dispute between the mayor
and vicar OF Csnourgie, department OF
Lozere, where the municipal council,
taking advantage of the law permitting
it to manage funerals as regards the part
occurring outside the church, bought a
hearse Tor the use of the people at cost
of 6 francs per funeral until the whole
cost 800 francs-should be paid, when
the vehicle could be used without any
payment whatsoever.
The hearse, not being consecrated and
not carrying cross, the vicar refused tc
allow it TO enter the church grounds.
To this the mayor responded With an
order forbidding the church hearse tc
enter the streets. Hence, at each funeral
the councils hearse is used to the en-
trance of the church, where the coffin il
transferred to the church hearse, entail
ing an extra cost of francs. After th'
services, the coffin is replaced in th'
councils he8rse and taken to the ceme

Lord AveIfnE Convinced that the In

Lord Aveling, better known as Sir
John Lubbock, the famous scientist,
writes: "In one of my nests was an
ant which had come into the world
without antennae. Never having pre-
viously met with such Il case, watch
ed her with great interest, but she new

length one day / found her wandering
about In an aimless sort of manner, ap-
parently not knowing her way at all.
After awhile she fell in with some ants
of another species, who directly at
tackled her.
Il at once set myself to separate
them, but, whether owing to the
wounds she had received from her enc
mics or TO my rough though well-meant
handling or to both, she was evidently
much wounded, and lay helpless on the
ground After some time another ant
from the same nest came by. She ex
amined the poor sufferer carefully,
then picked her up and carried her
