Monsignor Capel, the distinguished English Catholte prelate, arrived in Philadelphia yester- day and visited various places of interest, and last evening returned to Edgewater, N. J., where he {3 spending a few days with friends Monsignor Capel will shortly visit Newport, and later make an extended tour through the west as far as San Francisco. He ts reported as saying, in a recent interview: “After Ihave traveled to some extent I shall lecture on the social influences of Catholl- cism, the growth and evils of agnosticism, the future of the church in England, and other matters Mkely to be of interest to thinking people. By the way, I was represented in a news- vaver yesterday as saying that the Catholics in Engiand were striving for social position. ‘rhe word ‘social’ may be misunderstood, as some of the oldest and proudest families in England are Catholics, the Duke of Norfolk, premier duke of England, being at their head. By soctal_position Imeant ‘from a university standpoint.

Sul, there 1g no reason why other attempts should not be made, and, perhaps, succeed.” “Isee,” the Monsignor conunued, “that I am credited with more conversions than I deserve, while on the other hand much stress is made of the fact of my having succeeded In inducing cer- tain great noblemen to enter the holy fold.

I had nothing to do with the Conversion of the Marquis of Ripon. The Marquis acted on his own impulses, and sought instructions under an assumed nate. He went as a complete stranger tocall on a priest in Lon- don and asked for advice. ‘The clergyman had no Suspicion of the rank of hls visitor, and the fact remained unknown almost up to the day of his reception, when he disclosed ls identity. I per- sonaily received Lord Braye and also the present Duchess of Norfolk. The Duchess was a daughter of the late Countess of Loudoun, and nlece of the late Marquis of Hastings. ‘The 'Duke fell in love with her; but a Duchess of Norfolk must be a Catholic,’ and’ the Duke’s persuasions and mine had the effect of altering the young lady’s rell- gious opinions. and she came into the church Shortly before her marriage.” satea you. have good hopes of tho ultt- mate conversion of England to the Catholic church.” “Well, thet question would be as well left un- answered, Indeed, there are many things I may be inclined to talk about after I have seen more of your peop!@and understand them better.

In 1870 Scrofulous Ulcers broke out on my body until my breast was one mass of corruption. Some of these ‘Ulcers were not less than oue and one-half inches in diameter, the edges rouzh, ragged, and seemingly dead, thecavity open to the bone and filled with of- fensive matter. Everything known to the medical faculty wastriedin vain. Gradually the bone itself be- came diseased, and then the suffering began in earnest. Bone Ulcers beyan to take the place of those hitherto ou the surface. I became a mere wreck. For months ata time could not get my hands to my head because of extreme soreness. Could not turnin bed. Knew not what it was to be an hour even free from pain. Had rea- son to look upon life itself as a curse. In the summer of 1880, after ten years of this wretched existence, I be- gan to use the Curicura Remepres, and after two years’ persistent Use of them the last Uleer has healed. ‘The dread disease has succumbed. All over the breast where was once a mass of corruption is now a healthy skin. My weight has increased from one hundred and twenty-three to one hundred and fifty-six pounds, and the good work is still going on, I feel myself a new man, and ail through the Curicuna REMEDIES.

One statement in it strikes the Teader as very pecullar, namely: “That in man- aging a single numper ‘drawing, if the Commis- sloners of such a lottery allows the ticket-lolder the privilege of calling out the number on his Ucket and have the tag or ballot with a corres- ponding number on it shown Lim in the presence f the audience afd then placed tn the wheel, such a lottery company resorting to such a prictice Proves itself to be a fraud.” This statement 1s untrue and unworthy of such gentlemen, Will these Generals please say how single number lot- tery compantes swindle; 1s it not by stinply hav- ing all tags or ballots with numbers on tuem cor- responding to the numbers of the tickets they have sold, not placed in the wheel at all, thus If a man buys a Ucket with number 56 on It, the tag or ballot with 56 on it 1s kept out of the wheel, so, of course, the ticket-holder 18 bound to draw a blank, because his number 1s not represented In the wheel at all, but suppose the holder of the ticket asks lo see the tag with 56 on it placed in the wheel and he sees itdone, he knows then his Ucket has a chance to draw'a prze. This cer- tainly is the only fair test of an honest drawing. Should the ticket-holder not be there In person, ne could write to some one, asking them to i out his number and see it go In the wheel. These Generals were brave soldiers, and no doubt are honest in their tottery work, but they certainly are not posted as what constitutes an honest lot- tery drawing and thelr statement shows their ignorance.
