The Archbishop of Lyons. Cardinal
Couile. has placed upon the index a
number of radical newspapers which are
published at Lyons, st. Etienne. Chalon-

mitigating this ordinance the archbishop
explains that the prohibited journals are
to be classed among the writings which
the church dcnounces as being dangerous
to the faithful on the ground that they
attack the Roman Catholic religion and
its minister's.
This decision has excited the anger of
the journals affected. and. while profess
ing to make light CT the prescription.

archbishop with an action for damages
in the civil courts. The Tribune ReplIb

Cool wave will cross Pacific slope
about August %, great central valleys

This disturbance will cause a great
rise in temperatures and greater force
will develop in the storms. Not much
rain except in few limited localities.
A great fall in temperature at the
close of this disturbance will cause
light frosts in some northern sections
and heavier frosts father north.
Many localities of the winter wheat
sections will be too dry for fall sowing.
This will probably be of no serious
damage to the crop, as late sowing
sometimes prevents damage by in
sects. Sowing on dry soil causes
very uneven crop; part of the wheat
gets an early and rank growth, to the
detriment to that which comes up
