POPE Plus WILL
STOP DIVORCES
PETITIONS FOR ANNULLMENT
OF MARRIAGES WILL BE
INVESTIGATED.

ROME, Sept. lit was announced
at the Vatican that Pope Plus will take
riages among Catholics.
A Vatican commission appointed sew
eral months ago to investigate condi
tons is ready with it's report. Though
here have been 400 authorized sep
canonical law, the commiss on says
there have been 1855 authorized sep
arations recently.
Divorce, as such, has always been
under the church's ban. Matrimonial
separations have been countenanced
however, under the canonical law an
nulling marriages for the following
causes:
Ceremony not in accordance with
Catholic rites.
Proof after marriage that husband
and wife are nearly related.
Conviction of improper conduct by
husband or wife.
Impersonation by a third party of
either bride or bridegroom.
Bigamy by either husband or wife.
Inability of husband or wife to full
fill marriage relations.
The committees report shows that
there have been many instances in
which to secure mutually desired
separation the husband and wife haN
agreed to admit violation of one of
these laws. Ir. other cases, it wass
tanned through the connivance of law
yers Or physicians to convince the
church authorities that there have
been breaches of the canonical rules.
The scandals are rendered all the
more serious the commission adds.
from the fact that the influential rich
have been the grossest offenders-some
attempting to secure the churchS
consent to separations by liberal do
nations: others. by attempting coer-
on members of the college of cardI-
nails.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
Catholic church has always been the
fearless opponent of divorce. yet cali
umny against the church is one of the
frequent occurrences noticed in press

CtERGYMEN WANT
NO PROBATION
METHODISTS ASK ABOLITION OF
"sIx MONTHS AN OBJECT
OF SUSPICION.

Local Methodist clergymen at the
forthcoming conference of the church
in Seattle will demand that the time
honored probationary period for MEM
bers be abolished. Rev. w. H. w.
Rees and Rev. o. H. Magin were ap-
pointed committee at the last meet
ing of the ministers of the denomina-
ton in this city to draw up a set OF
resolutions for presentation to the Pu-

here next Thursda, demanding that

clergyman put it. If the resolutions
prevail the general conference which
meets at Buffalo in 1909 will be me-
moralized to make them effective, says
the Times
Would Not Elect Presiding Elders
Methodist ministers in Seattle are
also in favor of having the presiding
elders elected by the clergy of the dis

system of having them appointed by

Twenty-nine students of the Uni

The faculty ban has descended with
unprecedented violence this year, and
has caught more delinquents than
ever before in the history of the insti-
luton. The discharge of the careless
colegians is in line with the move

the courses more difficult and to de-
mand more conscientious work from
the students.

While the requirements for continu-

will run into the disgrace of a dishon-
orable discharge blindly, the profess
sors are allowed discretionary lenience
which heretofore has kept many a stu
