PENALTY ON MODERNISM.
Greater accommodation of Offend
ing Publishers and Readers.

Milan, Dec. 27.-Under orders from
the Pope, Cardinal Ferrari, Archbishop
of Milan, has published from the pull
pit of the Cathedral of Milan the edict
of "the g .eater accommodation
against all concerned in the publica-
ton of the monthly review, II Rinno-
iammeto. The pronunciation, among
other things, deprives those against
whom it is directed of Christian burial,
and relieves the faithful of all duties
regarding the bodies and souls Of those
denounced, whether they are alive or
dead.
II Rinnovammeto is a ~high-class sci
entific periodical. 1t is not antagonis-
tic to religion, but it opposed the pol
icy of the Vatican to the same extent
as do modernists here and elsewhere.
1t is read and approved by many edu-
Gated, sincere Catholics and is SYM
pathetically regarded by some of the
cardinals and by numerous prelates
and clergy. The doom of its conduct
ors is proportional to its influence.
The decree explicitly strikes not
only at the proprietors and editors,
but at the whole staff, printers and
others employed In the production of
the review, as well as at every contrib
utor and subscriber.

NOW IN DISTRESS.
Man Who Claims He Served for Crime
He Never Committed.

Cincinnati. Charles Franklin, aged
6S. of Macon, Ca, who applied for
shelter at the Associated Charities in
Covington today, related a remarkable
story to the authorities. He says that
he served twenty-One years in the penl-
Tertiary of Georgia for a crime of which
he was innocent. Miss Bryan, he
claims, was murdered in front OF his
place of business, Pine and Fifth streets,
in that city, and he was arrested for the
murder.
"Fred Mcknight, who was in my en-
ploy at the time of the murder, testified
against me-" said the old man, land
was instrumental in sending Ge to the
penitentiary for twenty-one years. He
got others to testify against me through
hatred and paid them. One negro, John
Haycock, whom he got to testify
against me, dropped dead on the stand
at the first trial. | was in business at
the time, being a dray contractor, and
spent $50, 900 for attorneys fees in three
trials in order to escape the gallows.
Two years ago Mcknight died, and,
knowing the end was near, he confessed
that he was the murderer OF Miss
Bryan. / was released Nov. 5, 1907"

CALLS legislature
Is DELUcED WITH DISPATCHES
URGING HIM TO CONVENE
LEGISLATURE.
TO ASSEMBLE on JANUARY "A
Believing That the Extraordinary Oe-
casion Now Exists, Governor OF
Nevada Calls Lawmakers
to His Aid.

Carson City, New, Dec. 31.-Govern-
or Sparks yesterday afternoon called
an extra session of the legislature to
convene Jan. IA, 1903. For the last
"a hours the governor has beer de-
luged with dispatches from all over
the state and many places outside or
Nevada, urging the calling of the ex-
ira session to settle labor troubles.
Following is the text of the call:
ITO the Honorable Members of the
Twenty-Third Session of the Legisla-
ture of the State of Nevada: Gentle
men-The constitution of the state,
article 4, section TX, provides that the
governor may, on extraordinary occa-
sions, convene the legislature by
proclamation and shall state to both
houses, when organized, the purpose
for which they have been convened,
and the legislature shall transact no
other legislative business than that
for which specially convened or such
other legislative business as the gov
ernor may call to the attention of the
legislature while in session.
Many Citizens Made Request.
Believing that an extraordinary oc.
casion now exists and one which the
legislature, being a coordinate branch
of the state government, is best Ere.
pared to solve, it became my duty,
by proclamation, to convene the legis-
lature at Carson City, New, on the
14th day of January, A. D. 1908" This
request has been made by many citi-
zens. The object is to adjust by legis-
lation, if possible, the controversy ex-
listing between the miners and mine
owners at Goldfield, this state. Such
legislation should be general in char
acter and partly applicable for the
restoration and preservation of law
and order.
Under the legislation, as above
cited, the governor shall state to both
houses, when organized, the purpose
for which they have been convened.
When that time arrives, l. will en-
deavor to outline to you the necessary
legislation required. and will give
hearty cooperation in the attempt to
secure to every citizen of Nevada their
just rights, freely to be exercised un.
der the law.
"(Signed.) JOHN SPARKS,
Governor"
