Liable Lennire

Toute la presse a mentionne Pac-

Pere fait a Fable Lemire. Mais, Ia
bienveillance de Get accueil depasse
singulierement lie cas- personnel du
depute d'Hazebrouck, ct c'est ce que
Pom ma peut-etre pas assez WI de pri-

neur de Iaudience pontificale non

d'exprimer viva voce Beno1t XIV,
des que les circumstances permirent ce
voyage a Rome, sa profonde gratitude
pour Pauguste Intervention qui, sans
TOUGHER a sa liberte politique, lul
rendu les droits de son sacerdoce.
En- fait, il nest demeure Rome
que quarante-huit heures. Done lau-
dience sitot imploree, fut accordee; ct
je crois que ceux qui connaissent les
habitudes de la cour romaine n'hesl-
teront pas a voir dams cette condescen-
dance,-on pourrait dire, 81 lie mot
etait assez respectueux,- Get
empressement, lie plus favorable des
indices.
Or, lie Pape a de lui-meme, pour
ainsi parler, mais Paccent, au cours
de paudience accordee a Pabbe Leml-
re, sur lie caractere politique de son
visiteur,. ct tout de suite il tut evl"
dent a ce dernier que Pancien malen-
tendu-dont les consequences furent
81 douloureuses au pretre plein de fol
ct tres pieux quest le depute d'Haze-
brouck-n'etait plus qu'un mauvals
souvenir, ct que lautorite religieuse
ne Popposerait nullement a ce quill
demandat aux electeurs de sa circons-
cription le renouvellement de son
mandat, Aussi bien Fable Lemire ma
vait-il point cache au Saint Pere son
intention de Sc presenter, ajoutant
o1e dams les conditions actuelles, nees
de la guerre, il sly croyait oblige en-
conscience ct Beno1t XIV NY contredlJ
point.
VOLTA done une affaire entendue. Or,
lie pretends que cette attitude 81 pa
ternelle, 81 conciliante du Souveraln
Pontife dams lie cas- particulier de Fab
be Lemire, nous laisse voir-aussl
bien que sill les await traduites en-
formules precises-les dispositions de
Beno1t XIV Pegard du gouvernement

lier de Table Lemire Sc rattache,
ou'on le veuille ou non, a une sltua-

BILE de l'isoler, ct j'ajoute quill seralt
deplorable que notre gouvernement

II y va.
Auiourd'hui plus qu'hier ct bien

(mais oui salt 81 demain il ne serait
pas trop tard), il y va, disons-nous, ct
il ne faut pas que les catholiques Sc
lassent de lie repeter, il y va de notre

la France, nation catholique, ne peut
Sc passer du Pape nj au dehors nj au

Chinese Babies.

1t is not at all uncommon for the
dead bodies Of Chinese infants to be
cast away, instead Of being buried.
The charitable explanation is that this
is done to save burial expenses. The
true reason, however, is said to be
the deeprooted superstitious belief
among them that the death of baby
arises out of punishment to Its soul
for sins committed In previous state
of existence. 1t is an accursed Great
ure, whose coffin no one will follow.
1t is, therefore, a common sight In
China to see dying babies laid down
by the roadside to breathe their last.
The parents will not allow them to
die in the house, the belief being that
infants, after their death, become
wicked spirits. To allow them to die
under the parents roof will bring
nothing but evil upon the family.

CHAPTER V-Continued.

But at the expiration of that time
he was stealing along the opposite side
of the street in front of Drink-HOuse
Sans again: and, grateful now for the
dinginess of the surroundings and the
absence of lights. slipped into mar
row areaway. or more properly a
space some three feet wide between
two buildings facing Drink-House
Sans, and lay down upon the ground.
BY and by Drink-HOuse Sam would
60 to bed, by and by that light In the
barroom would 60 out, by and by the
hangers-on would be dispersed. and by
and by somewhere in that house he
would get Drink-House Sam alone.
Wallen lay there. his eyes on the
harroom door across the street. Occa-
sionally someone struggled In. occa-
slonally someone struggled out; but 1t
was many hours, while he grew stiff
and cramped, before the place began
to empty out-before Drink-House
Sam himself at the doorway was eject
Ing. with some force and more profan-
ity, what appeared to be the last Of
his guests.
And then the light in the barroom
was extinguished.
1t was very late; but precisely what
time it was Wallen did not know, only
that he had lain there for an interim
nable space. Well, he had waited SO
long he could afford to wait still an
other hour-until DrinkHouse Sam
and whoever else was in the place had
got to bed and got to sleep. This time
he would leave nothing to chance.
A light appeared suddenly in the
end room on the veranda over the bar
room-and Wallen's lips parted In a
twisted smile. Luck again! That was
Drink House Sans room! The man.
silhouetted against the light was open
ing the veranda door. for air probably.
The room obviously then had two
doors. for Marie had entered It from
the interior of the house. Wallen
smiled again. He wonld enter from
the veranda. Luck was coming now
in greater measure than he had dared
10 nope.
The light In the room went out.
The minutes passed, quarter OF ar
hour, a half, three-quarters-and then
Wallen sat up, unlaced his boots and,
tying them together with their strings.

James Clarence Mangan.

One of the most gifted poets. and
at the same time not generally or pop
ularly known, was James Mangan,
whose profound knowledge of the Ian

a life of many vicissitudes he died In
hospital June 20. 1849-some say
from cholera. others. from starvation.
