OPPOSED THE CATHOLICS
americans Object to Judge Va
feu's Methods IN China.

Judge L. r. Whitley. head of the United
States Court for China. whom the American bust
ness men there are trying to have removed FOR
injuries they claim his arbitrary actions have In
fcted upon their interests. in the course OF e
cent written decision took occasion 70 attack the
Catholic clergy. In May the Protestant mission
aries held convention at Shanghai, at which dele
gates from all parts of China Japan and England,
well as the United States We're present Judge
Wiley presided Mt one Of the meetings.
During this session there We're attacks made upon
the Catholic missionaries and their methods.
Rev J. n. Lowrie. prominent in the Far Eastern
missionary field. the principal speaker said In part
THE Catholic Church makes lawsuits while the
Protestant Church makes converts The Catholic
Church is easy to enter. but hard TO leave"
This sentiment met with hearty demonstration
OF approval from the audience and Il is said that
Judge Wiley was particularly conspicuous with
his applause. Owing 10 his prominence as an
American official the apparent sauctioning OF
these remarks caused comment In Shanghai where
owing 10 the cosmopolitan citizenship. religious
feeling is high. The American Protestant mission
aries met in secret session that night. indorscd
Judge Whitley. and signed a petition asking Prcsi-
dent Roosevelt and the State Department to re-
tain him In Shanghai.
A few days later the will of Captain J. p Rob
erts an American citizen. was presented for
probate in the United States Court. There
cision on the right Of the United States Court %
admit will to probate, in the course of which he
made tho following attack upon the Catholic
clergy:
The Popish clergy take TO themselves under the
name OF the Church and poor the whole residue of
the estate Of the deceased after the twothirds of
the wife and the children divided, without even
paying his debts other charges thereon. Tho
trust thus vested in the orelates in the of
time has been grossly abused
Judge Whitley also said in his decision that the
power the Catholic clergy had seized In former
times abused by them that it was neces-
for the state to interfere to protect the people
from their Tapacty
The Rev. Father NJ Z. Colman OF ST Joseph's
Church, Shanghai, writing in The Chinese Ca
2ette," Juno 4. protested against the comments in
the decision. declaring that they are more than IL
relevant and evidently put in for the purpose OF at
tack on the Church.

MADNESS OR DEATH.
The Inevitable Fate That Awaits Tho
AbsintF, TippIer.7 8

The Inevitable Fate That Awaits ths
Absinth TippIer.
What is absinth7 1t. is prepared BY.
pounding the leaves and Towering tops
of various species Of wormwood, star
anise root, sweetfiag root, leaves Of
dittany and other aromatic plants, and
sleeping them In alcohol. After eight
or ten days the mixture is distilled,
and oil Of aniseed or some similar es-
sential oil is added. This Is the method
Of producing the genuine absinth, but
1t varies usually In the direction Of
cheapening production and increasing
profits. Poisonous wood alcohol is
used for macerating the vegetable In
gradients, and inferior and often In
furious herbs are employed. These do
not always produce the much desired
greenish opalescence, and turmeric, in
digo, sulphate Of copper and other col
oring matters are employed. The con-,
sequences Of regularly drinking even
carefully prepared absinth are in the
end ruinous to mind and body The
main difference between the various
qualities OF the liquor Is the rapidity
with which deleterious effects are pro-
duced. A man can go on drinking the
better qualities a little longer before
he becomes mental and physical
wreck; that Is all. And, whether one
drinks to excess or only takes a reg
ular daily dose, the end is the same.
The sequence Of events and their du-
ration only are different. In the first
case the large doses OF the liquor nee
essary to produce any effect speedily
render the victim unable to eat food.
He is tortured by. an unquenchable
thirst Hallucination speedily follow,
and the grave or the madheuse Is the
inevitable end. The absintfl tippler
goes to ruin down an easier slope. His
earliest symptoms are loss Of weight
and strength, followed by the develop,
ment Of muscular twitchings and
tottering gait, somewhat similar to
that Of iocomotor ataxia Then hallu-
cinations set ID, accompanied by grad
uaIly spreading paralysis, which ends
In death. If a person Is regular daily
drinker Of absinth, whether he drinks
to excess or only tipples mod
ruin of the nervous system, followed
BY madness or death, Is absolutely GER
tain. Exchange.
