MUS RARLY LivR. “My trade has been one requiring more judg- ‘ment than eloquence, for I never had much in of education. I was « farmer's boy. raised on a ranch in Missouri, and received the first gambling education I ever bad at home, where we were allowed to play cards. Havii home I conclu: that ro from home to play and so I did. One day I bridied father's horse and went off, turning ap at Atchison, Kan. The second day gentleman who asked me for « pass.

Then he asked me my occupation an told bima [ was a farmer. farm and ask you to hitch up your horse and take me to the next town, would you do it?” told bim I didn't know, but if I were going hi way and he were to ask for a ride I would say yes. He thought I was very frank in my state ‘ments and so he sent me home.” The speaker then told his bearers that his father had six sonsand four of them turned out to be gamblers. “Fathers,” be said, “if you permit cards in your house sou have to take the conse- mences. Throw them out of your honses. Tice can do no good and there & nat a cingie ament in their favor. Fathers, don’t let it ‘said that you taught your boy his first game of cards.” OTVING PRACTICAL ILLUSTRATIONS. He then gave some practical illustrations to abow that gamblers have everything their own way and that it was impossible for an outsider or 2 person green at the business to win. Picking & weil-shuffled deck of cards he said be ex their backs as by looking at their faces, and he the truth of his assertion, holding the to the andience und calling them without | 1 the slightest hesitation. Then he showed what the gambier’s calla “vest hold out.” By this a poker hand calcu- Jated to win is concenled beneath the vest, and by working « wire with the foot the cards ap- pear between the two buttons fastening the t. and the goumbler “fills” hie hand. Mr. Quinn then related a pathetic story of a bier who ended his davs on the seaffold. wife remained true to him and she had given bim = dose of poison with the under- standing that ata particular minute he was to take the poison and she wasto kiliherself. The woman, hesaid, pe-formed her part, but the man, the gambler. coward and murderer, did not cheat the gallows.

The man in the wide-checked cape overcoat and sea-green spats hurriedly scrawled hisname on the register of a fashionable hotel this morn- ing. “I tell you,” he exclaimed in frozen accents, “this is cold weather—the Pullman porter told me it is the coldest here in eleven years—" “Twelve,” blandly corrected the clerk. “Eleven, sir! the porter said,” declared the iy, as if angry at the contradiction. ." repeated the clerk, suavely. , Yerknow, it is as cold as a narsty | day in the ‘north 0° Scotland, yerknow.

Archbishop Satolli Appointed by the Pope. ‘THIS ACT REGARDED AS A SUFFICIENT REPLY TO THE ATTACKS ON THE ABLEGATE FROM ROME— CONDITIONS IMPOSED ON DR. M'GLYNN. Mgr. Satolli, the papal ablegate, who is at the Catholic University, has received the following cable message from Dr. O'Connell, the Ameri- can secretary of the propaganda, who accom- panied Mgr. Satolli to this country and recently Tetarned to Rome: Rome, Jan. 14, 1898. Mgr.

In bis youth he assisted his father, Myron H. Rooker, the editor of the Albany Press and Knicker docker, and became quite experienced in the newspaper business, and later, while Mr. Rooker, ar., was correspondent at Albany for out-of-town newspapers, his son Frederick was with him in the New York assembly and senate during several sessions, and became thoroughly familiar with all that and legislative has been for many years, The public roads were dry and level prior to the falling of the snow, which now makes a track almost perfect, and many sleighs, even from the city, are seen gliding through the county.

Ho thoroughly understands the public school side of the educational controversy. CONDITIONS IMPOSED ON DR. M'GLINN. Archbishop Satolli authorizes the publication of the following statement in regard to the Pope's action in'the case of Dr. McGlynn: “On the very day of the reconciliation of Dr. McGlynn with the church public notice was given of it, with the statement that Mgr. Satolli had absolved from censure and reconciled Dr. McGlynn by special power for the purpose re- quested from and granted by the. holy father, and, moreover, that the absolution had been given because Dr. McGiynn had willingly ac- cepted the conditions laid down by the holy father as necessary and sufficient. “This information, #0 expressed, should have sufficed to satisfy every one with the recon- ciliation carried out by authority specially dele- gated by the holy father, and with the con- ditions called for by the holy father. Here it is well to make several reflections: First, that as soon as it was understood that these condi- tions were complied with, every sincere Cath- clic should at once hat conscience to recognize in the case that was expedient in accord with the spirit of the Catholic Church; second, that the selection of the proper time and the manner to give public information of the conditions be- longed to the authority of the church, and when the holy father should find it opportune after the reception of the documents, which were immediately forwarded; third, every one could see that the immediate publication of these conditions was for prudential reasons omitted, to avoid talk that might oppose good done by doing away with the calamity which had for so long weighed upon a priest by reconciling him with mother church. “If this result has not been obtained and if this wise silence hus been tnacceptable to any one, it must be ascribed simply to premature exaction. The conditions were in this form: “Dr. MeGlynn had presented a brief state- | ® ment of his opinions on moral-economic mat- ters, and it was judged not contrary to the doc- trine constantly taught by the church, and as recently confirmed by the holy father in the encyclical rerum novarum. Also, it is hereby publicly made known that Dr. McGivnn, besides protessing his adherence to all the doctrines and teachings of the Catholic Charch, has ex- pressed his regret (saying that he would be the first to regret it) for any word or act of his that may have seemed lacking in the t due to ecclesiastical authority, and he thereby intends to repair, so far ashe can, any offense which may have been given to Catholics, “Finally Dr. MeGlynn has, of his own freo will, declared and promised that, within the limits of a not long period of time, he will go to Rome in the spirit and intention which are be- coming to a good Catholic and a priest. “Here it is well to note how deplorable it is that this reconciliation should have been dis- cussed, as it has been, in newspapers in such manner that private and lay persons have darod to pass upon it harsh reproach and ill-considered censure. t one should have dared to speak of the pope's authority over the church in America as foreign is a sentiment and an utterance enormously erroneous and scan- dalous, The action of the church and of the holy see in the things that belong to it is supe- rior to every man-made bot , universal and proper to every country in which there may be Catholics, For which reason it seems to us exceedingly opportune to recommend due respect in every case to ecclesiastical authority, and, before all, to that of the holy see, as well asto that of the council of Baltimore, inas- much as it is forbidden to treat ecclesiastical matters and questions through the medium of journalism. “Much more deplorable is it that both ecclesiastics and laymen (who to ap- ras sincerely Catholic), make bad use of journalism, with violent and mendacious at- tacks, beyond all bounds of respect and chari against venerable prelates, whose virtue and learning, whose rectitude of character and un- questioned and unquestionable love toward the church and the supreme pontiff, never unac- companied by sincere love of country, make them deserved!y the objects of the ‘special predilection of the holy father an& of universal esteem and veneration.” WHAT ARCHBISHOP IRELAND SATS.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: From your columns we gather that petitions are being circulated and signed to a limited ex- tent for more money for the District garbage collection service to the end that we may have & daily collection all the year round. It looks mightily like there was rat in this meal. Who is it that with everything frozen up tight and the average houscholder utterly indifferent whether he receives a call from the bage collector once a week or once a fort- night wants a daily collection from dwellings and zealously manifests his want by circulating petitions? The proposition for a daily collection issheer foolishness. All wo need is that we should get what we now pay for. The five-year garbage removal contract, under which we now labor, provides for daily collection from all hotelsand markets. I wonder if the work is done daily? ‘The present contract requires also tri-weekly collections from dwellings and boarding houses between April 1 and November 1 and bi-weeki: collections the rest of the year.

Ihave not consciously failed in the respect due the author- ity of the holy see, but if whatsoever word may have ever escaped me not conformable to the respect due to it, I should be the first to regret and to regret it.

When shown the announcement that the ap- pointment of Monsignor Satolli as papal able- gate had been confirmed Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia remarked guess it's #0.” When questioned he continued: “The effect of the appointment on the church government of this country can only be determined by time. Such delegates exist in other countries without interfering with the machinery of the church government, and we must hop it will be the same with us.” At the recent conference in New York he declared the archbishops did not vote against receiving an apostolic delegate, but simply postponed giving an opinion until they would consult with their suffragan bishops. ARCHBISHOP CORRIGAN'S COMMENT. Archbishop Corrigan has prepared the fol- lowing statement: The sovereign pontiff, as the Vatican council defines, enjoys immediate episcopal jurisdiction over the entire tlock of Christ’ ‘The primacy of apostolic see carries with it from its very n: ture the right to appoint a representative in any diocese of the world. To deny this is to deny the faith. Consequently, when the boly father is pleased to make a delegate apostolic he hasa perfect right to do so. More than this, to doubt of the wisdom of -the holy see in determining to appoint such a representative no Catholic who is well instructed in his reli gion would fora moment think of doing. We all receive this decision of the holy father as we feceive all other decisions emanating from him, with the profoundest reverence, respect y nee ac there might have been room for a difference of opinion. Now none exists. For my own part T gladly receive and welcome the news in ques- tion, always supposing it to be authentic.” ‘MGR. SATOLLI'S NEW DUrIES. A Washington special to the New York Sun gives an interview had with Bishop Keane rela- tive to the appointment of Archbishop Satolli as apostolic delegate for America. In reply to question as to the duties and powers of Mgr. Satolli Bishop Keane said: “Mgr. Satolli will hardly know the scope of obedient servant, ‘DWARD McGiyNy. apostolic delegation under the church law are broad and well defined. We have now an apostolic delegate. Heretofore Mgr. Satolli’s title has been ablegate, which denotes a positon rather temporary and undefined. “It has been the intention of the pope for some time to take this action, but the opposi- tion snown to Mgr. Satolli in certain quarters has hastened the decision. This appointment is a complete answer to those opposed to Mgr. Satolli’s authority. “The establishment of a delegation here will have # most beneficent result on the church in America. It will maintain peace and harmony, and facilitate the settlement of controversies heretofore had to be fect form the stituting, as it were, for more important charch affairs, home rule.’ Wewill have at homes branch of the cot thoroughly in harmony with the our democracy and all that is 7 ‘MGR.

Some of the American bishops have undoubtedly objected toit, because they prefer to correspond directly with the holy father at Rome. Mgr. Satolli will confine himself to matters relating to the church.” Bishop Keane brought the interview to » close with the remark that the pending con- troversy will be settled without any friction so far as the church in America is for these questions are mere ¢] pied mahate Fifty Persons Killed on the Congo Railway.

We have him bound (!) now to tri-weekly collections at the only time of the year they are needed, but we don’t get what we pay for. Shall the extra service be outside of the con- tract and the contractor? Can this be done without such interference with contract service as to practically invalidate that document and render the Commissioners powerless to enforce its provisions—even more so than they now are, if that be conceivable? No, we don't need more money or a daily all- the-vear-round collection of garbage. We do need a better enforcement of the collections stipulated in the present contract, And right here we are called upon to notice that our honorable health officer places the blame of unsatisfactory collection not upon the contractor, but upon householders who do not keep their garbage accessible. Ho says this is the grand difficulty in the whole business. The pretext that non-accessibility of the garbage in ome cases excuses the entire absence of garbage carts for days and weeks at a time “don't go.” By the regulations of the Commissioners the householder is required to provide a metal re- ceptacle for garbage. These cost anywhere from one to three dollars, Who is rich enough to keep up a supply of them to replace those left in the alley end carried away by alley rowlers? As the case is we can’t keep wooden oxes, even, or barrels, Now, what is necessary to insure accessibil- ity of ‘tho garbage, without the householder having to choose between suffering the frequent loss of his receptacle or the too infrequent re- moval of its contents? Simply that the collect- ors be required to announce their presence vigorously in the vicinity and that they pass over their routes regularly and as often as stip- ulated in the contract. Such alley gates as are not opened may then be passed by without the contractor being chargeable with neglect.

M. —— As to the Waste of Water. To the Faitor of The Evening Star: Thave noticed the last week or two an article primted in your valuable paper with regard to the waste of water, &c.,and that inspectors have been sent out to visit from house to house to seo that there is no waste of this precious fluid. Of course that means if the water is running with the emallest possible pressure in yourcloset to stop it. Now, Lam a law-abiding citizen and have complied with the law, and as a result the pipes are all frozen and burst and the water is shut off from the closct, which is also frozen and cannot be kept clear this severe cold weather. As result there is a stench which predominates the whole house, and two of my children are al- ready’ sick. I would have the repaired, but they would only break again, ‘This, I’ imagine, is only one case out of a thousand in our city, and it strikes me, Mr. Editor, that it would be well if all the Potomac water could be turned into the conduit and let run through the closet of ever household and clean the sewerage of the city for the benefit of the health of its citizens; it could not be caled a waste; for if you were to shut the en- tire flow off at the Great Falls it would only run ite usual course toward the Atlantic. We have heard a great deal said lately about the Prospects of the cholera next summer and what shall be done to keep it out, One way at least will help to accomplish this, and that is to waste (if it must be called wasting) a little water at this time of the year and keep the closets of the houses clean and prevent the pipes from freez- ing. There are instances where water is wasted, but no one will be guilty of wasting water when it is necessary for its use. J. HM. A Road to Destruction. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Permit me to warn the public through your valuable paper against the peril of attempting tocross from 7th to 14th stroet by way of Irving street. I was so foolhardy as to under- take the trip an evening or two ago and came near paying dearly for my temerity. How- ever, after numerous tumbles and somer- saults and handsprings, I succeeded in escap- ing with my life, thanks to a dence. My experience reminded me of Mark ‘Twain's introduction to the Rocky mountain dilly goat.

IN THE LEGISLATURES, Trying to Break the Deadlock in Kansas— Affairs in Other States, Tho second week of the Kansas legislative session begins today, with the lower house further from having working organization Perfected than it was when it was first called to order. An organization of the populist mem- bers, lacking five of a majority of the members- elect, is in existence, and has the official reoog- nition of the governor and senate. The republicans and democrats have an organiza- tion of sixty-seven members, which has not been given the recognition. Much talk has been induiged in looking to an amicable adjustment of the two organizations. Many of the populist members privately con- cede that the republican house is the legal one, but the fact that the populist majority in the senate and the populist governor has recognized the minority house leaves them powerless to recede from the action taken in the spur of the moment when political excitement was ruaning high Inst Tuesday, without practically cun- demning the official action of the senate and their governor. In other words, they do not know how to let go. BEECHEM HOLDS THE BALANCE. An intimate friend of Beecher, the Montana populist with democratic leanings, says Beecher will not vote for the democratic eaucus nomi- nee, Clark, and therefore the latter cannot be elected. Neither will Beecher vote for Dixon. He is willing to vote for Hauser, Collins, or one of several other democrats, a list of whom be has, but that he will not permit the democrats to go into caucus and divtate to him for whom he shall cast his vote. Without Beecher the democrats lack one of a majority of the legislature, and if they do not come to his terms in the next forty-eight hours there is a likelihood that be and the other two populists will unite with the republicans upon some populist who was until recently a repub- Hiean, POPULISTS TRYING TO CAPTURE ARIZONA. Gen. James B. Weaver opens the populist campaign in Arizona territory January 13. Efforts are being made by populists to control the next legislature in anticipation of statehood and an election of United States Senators. Weaver will be assisted by Gen. A. J. Streator of llinois, and later by Mrs, Lease of Kansas. A CHANG The senatorial C.
