The Pope’s Health.

Securing a Lunatic.

Im one of the most fashionzble dis @riets of Paris a mock marriage was re- cently planned for the purpose of secur- ing a rather dangerous lunatic. An at- tractive young person named Mlle. De- laplume was sitting in her boudoir the other day in a house situated in a street off the Boulevard St. Germain. Suddenly a ring came to the door, and one of her servants, having opened it, ushered in a well dressed man looking like a superior sort of valet. He told Mile. Delaplume that he had a letter from one of her friends, a countess, and as the young woman put her hand out to receive the missive the stranger seised her fingers, pressed them to his lips, aud then, sinking on his knees, made a passionate declaration of love pnd offered to marry her.

Mile. Delaplume saw by the man’s eyes that-he was dangerously mad, and, fearful of a tragedy, she accepted his offer with apparent calmness. Then she invited the strange visitor to the may- or’s office in order to have the auptial knot tied. The man accompanied her with alacrity to the establishment in qestion, where a secretary, informed cf the real state of affairs, pretended to read the civil marriage regulations. The mock bridegroom was then taken by a detective te the police depot under the delusion that he was bound fora pastry cook’s, there to give an order for & sumptuous wedding breakfaet. The man was, it appears, formerly employ- ed as avalet by ome of Mile. Delap- lume’s friends.—Paris Letter.

Explains the Attitude of the Pope on

the Question.

(Spectan tro Tue Examiner.)

OTTAWA, Aug. 24.—Archbishop Lange.

Win said, in an interview, that while in Rome he had several interviews with the Sovereign Pontiff onthe question of the Manitoba schools.

The Pope is exceedingly reasonable in reference to the school question, said the Arbbbishop, and ifour authorities would ouly consider the attitude of His Holiness they would willingly agree to concede what he asks.

While I do not wish to be understood to reflecting any discredit on the statement of Mr. Laurier personally, continued his Grace, or iu auy way connevting his name with the question, I wish to state emphatir caily that any one who says that there has been a satisfactory settlement of the ciffi- eulty, says that which is isnot in con- formity with the truth.

If, added he, the Laurier-Sifton confer ence at Rat Portage, has resulted in any settlement it is news to me.

The school question will only be settled whea the minority receives full and ade- quate restoration of the rights of which they have Leen deprived, and then and not till then will the agitation cease.

A Brilliant Fraud.

A small weekly magazine was started bere 11 years ago by two hustling young men. One was editor, the other ‘‘ writer and paster.”’ They clipped, extracted and rewrote. An advertising agent was employed on a commission of 25 per cent, and it wasa caution the way he filled up the pages with black type and cuts. Some contracts were made for a month, some for three months, some fora year. The only cash in advance was half of the commission, which was paid as soon as the contract was turned in.

Prosperity peeped from its pages. The magazine rapidly grew fat. In the sec- ond week the American News company ordered 14,000 copies. Money flowed out like corn from a hopper and not a eent came in. The writer and paster went around at the end of the month to collect from the 30 day advertisers and what do you suppose happened? He fail- ed to find one! Every advertisement was a fraud. There were no such names, no such businesses, no such addresses as the agent brought in for publication. He happened to have an engagement in New Jersey on that fateful day and never has been seen since. Contracts supposed to be worth $10,000 were not worth a cent The magazine died.— New York Press.

In a Buddhist Nunnery.

Sir Charles Gordon’s ‘‘ Recollections of Thirty-nine Years In the Army’”’ contains this anecdote: ‘‘In 1860, at Tien-tsin, the two Gordons, when seek- ing for hospital sites, came across a Buddhist nunnery. Despite the warn- ings of one of the inmates, who appear- ed in boy’s clothes, they entered the building and found that the inmates all wore male clothing. The Buddhist women were greatly shocked at the in trusion.

‘* ‘Our regret,’ says Sir Charles, ‘was real. Explanations were exchanged. We were informed that the community within adopted male costume as an in- djoation that tigy not only renounced the world, but with it the emblems of their sex. We were ‘received’ by the lady superior, tea and cakes offered to and partaken of by us We were then permitted to visit the ‘private chapel,’ and finally we parted from the re- ligieuses on the best of terms.”
