Parish Institute.

The last monthly parish insti-
tute was held at the court house
last Saturday with about twenty
five teachers present. The pro-
gram varied from that outlined
by the Department Of Education
in that considerable time was
given to discussing letter writing,
primary reading. primary arith-
metic and school libraries in the
rural schools.
A very important part of the
program consisted of a spelling
match, which resulted in the con-
clusion that all school teachers
need to give more time to the
systematic study of the diction-
ary. Forty words were given
out and were written by the
teachers, after which the papers
were exchanged and the words
incorrectly spelled were marked.
A very interesting part of the
days work was the discussion of
the teaching of agriculture in the
public schools of the parish. this
discussion being led by Mr..
TisOn.

The Parish Crops.

During the past two weeks
there have been several rains,
some rather heavy; but reports
state that the western part of the
parish escaped to a large extent.
AS a result cotton is said to be
shedding, not greatly, but
enough in parts of the parish to
cause apprehension. However.
with fair weather for a while.
there is every promise for an eX.
ceptional crop. Cane. as we are
informed, is in splendid shape.

EXCITEMENT AT ROME.
Rome, Dec. 12.-Great excitement
prevails at tn vatican because of the
situation in France, and news from
that country is eagerly awaited. The
pope received in audience Cardinal
Vannutelli yesterday.
1t is believed here that the coming
conflicts may prove more serious than
those which occurred at the time Of
the taking of the Inventories. and it
is suggested IL worship Is neld pri-
vately the faithful may have to be
supplied with tickets to attend mass
and other religious ceremonies.
Contrary to his usual habit, the
pope remained up until a late hour
last night for the purpose of personal
" reading the telergams and going
over certain documents. concerning
the situation in France. With him
at work is Cardinal Merry del Val,
the papal secretary OF state, who is
proving an indefatigable assistant.
Both the pope and the cardinal are
being aided by the substitute secre-
tary of state, Monsigneur Della
Chieas, and the secretary extraordinary
of ecclesiastical affairs. MonsigneuE
Gaspari. Persons thoroughly familiar
with vatican affairs decalre that nc
such excitement and apprehension
have prevailed at the vatican as to-
night since the loss of the temporal
power. The pope is described al
calmer than any member of his en-
touTage. He is reported to have said
MAN can not fathom the designs
Of Providence. Perhaps the present
tribulations are intended only t.
quicken and hasten the ultimate and
inevitable triumph OF the church"
