increased to thirty-twomiles, and by noonit had attained a velocity of fifty-four miles. The maximum speed was sixty miles which was «ttained about eleven o’clock to- day and Jasted about five or six minutes. ‘The tide was also quite high and dashed over some of the wharves with considerable fury. One schooner—the Enterprise — dragged her anchor and was driven to the west side of Connolly’s wharf, where she filed with water and had her top-sides stove. Shingles, boards, empty casks and other light material left lying about the wharves were blown hither and thither. The telephone and electric light wireson Pow- ing exactly the expenses of the farm; and nal wharf were blown down, and the smoke-stack of the engine house also succumbed tothe tury of the gale.

About the city the damage was confined to the blowing down of trees, fences, wires, etc., and the progress of pedestrians was interfered with. One little fellow was ob- served holding tightly to one of the posts in Queen Syuare about eleven o’vlock, as though he had doubts of his safety if he were to trust himself to the mercy of the wind. The spire of St. Paul’s Chuych was also visibly atfected by the gale.

The Pope Loterviewed ON THE RECENT VISIT OF THE GERMAN EM- PEROR TO THE VATICAN,

Tue London Daily Telegraph's correspon- dent at Rome has had an interview with the Pope. His holiness received the cor+ respondent graciously. He said he worked very hard but did not engage in literary | labors. He continued: ‘* You may tell English Catholics that I am well, consider. | ing my advanced age and the multiplicity | wf my occupations. My health is really good, though I have had a good deal to| trouble me of late.” I ventured to ask his holiness if the German Emperor's recent visit to the Vatican had proven satisfactory. ‘* 1} cannot say,” he replied, ‘that we are either satistied or dissatistied with the Em- | peror's visit. hat he came to Rome was not at our request, nor was his object in coming favorable to us, but rather to those who are against us—to those who for ten years past have practically compelled me to restrict myself to this palace from which I cannot issue My dignity forbids me todo so. This young man, having acceded to the German throne, has been making a round of visits to European courts, and finally to Rome, where his presence was calculated to strengthen our adversaries and consolidate their position, not to benefit us. He came to see me. It was an act of courtesy and I was glad to receive him. I had much to say to him, but just as I was beginning my discourse he interrupted me by calling in his brother in order to present him to me. Atter that | had no further opportunity of speaking privately with him. With our episcopacy and clergy in Germany all is going on smoothly and __ satisfactorily. Vacant offices have been properly filled up with the aceord of Church and State alike and to the contentment of both. Of our

Weare in negotia- tion about the withdrawal of prohibitions affecting our educational orders, but there; is great ditiiculty in this. The. German! government desires to keep in its own} hands the exclusive instruction of Catholic children. To this I cannot consent. The teaching rights of the church must be re- cognized and their exercise must be recog- nized by the state. With less than this | may not be satisfied, and as you know, when the Pope is dissatistied Catholics are discenteuted. Jy Germany there are 16,- 000,000 Catholies whose wishes and feel- ings must be respected, it being to the in- terest of their temporal rulersto keep them contented. When the civil authority is righteously exercised it is always supported by the church. As the head of the church 1 cannot countenance the injustice done to those who sre-committed to my eare and whom J am bound to protect and defend. Prizes for Ferns and Wild Fiewers.

UMWMERSIDE DRIVING PARK | Wednesday, Oct. 3ist, Inst., 4

TIME AND A PURSE OF $200.

—" E ABOVE MATCH will, without doubt, be the most exciting and hotly contested race ever trotted in the Maritime Provinces, and as it is one principally for record, there will be some of the fastest speeding ever seen in Prince Edward Island, if not in Lewer Canada, as the contestants are among the fastest of the Provincial horses. Pilot and Black- bird will be driven to lower their'records, in order that they may become éligible for regia- tration. The race will therefore be a fair, square, honest trial of speed, m which each animal will trot on its merits. Every objectionable feature will be eliminated from the contest, and those who wish witness a square race will have the opportunity of doing so, as the managers are determined to prove that trotting can be conducted in an ent rely satisfactory manner,

*

Levers of the Noblest of all Sports should not miss this Race.

No fakir business or intoxicating liquor wil! be allowed on the grounds. ‘Lhe races will be coudacted according to National Rules, and first heat will be called at 1.30 p. m. sharp.

Admission to Park: Gentlemen, 25 Cents; Ladies Free.

SPECIALRAILWAY FARES.—A Special Train will leave Charlottetown 4% 9.15 a. m. (local time), returning after the trot is over in the evening. Return Tickets will be issued on this Train at ONE DOLLAR from Charlottetown, and from intermediate Stations between that city and Summerside at same rate as those granted late Hernande- Black-Pilot race. Return Tickets at one first-class fare will be issued from all other Stations on the line.

To fill in the tine, it has been suggested to give the patrons of the Park a full after noon’s genuine sport, and consequently it is probabie there will also be a 2.55 class, for a guod purse, in which several of the best local horses will take p»rt, and of which fuller particulars will be given in Monday's A riculturist.
