ColIeqe of Cardinals.

Pope Plus created seven new
cardinals last month, leaving sun
eight vacancies. In 1885 Pope SiXtnS
Y fixed the number of members of the
college of cardinals at seventy, namely,
six bishops, fifty priests and fourteen
dcaconS.
The cardinals do not take their title
from the color of their vcstmcnts. as is
sometimes supposed, but the color Is
named after the title of the men who
wear it, The word comes from the
Latin cardo, q hinge. From the idea
of dependence upon a hinge the word
cardinal has acquired the meaning of
chief, or prince.
Originally the cardinal bishops were
bishops of sees i'll the pcighborhood of
Rome; the cardinal priests were the
parish priests of Rome, and the
cardinal dcacons were permanent
administrators of charities in districts
OF the city. AS the organization of the
church grow and became complex, the
college of cardinals. the advisory body
for the Pope. was enlarged by the adj
dtion of persons away from Rome
For many centuries the college of
cardinals has exercised the power of
choosing the Pope. Always q large
ma iority of the members are Italians
and for more than 500 years they have
with a single exception, elected an
Italian as Pope. Fifty years ago there
were only IS nOn-Italians in the col
lege. At present there are 81 Italians
and % foreign cardinals. There are
only two cardinals in this hemisphere
one in North and one in South
| America There are also but two IN
the British enrirc-one in Ireland and
the other in Australia.
At various times the Pope has been
| urged to appoint some non-Itallan, OF
the ground that it would make the
Sacred College more fully representa-
tive of the church at large. Tho
answer to the argument is that inc
college is not representative body
| that the members are chosen for their
ability to advise the Pope-1outh' :
| Companion.
