WAR ED

BY PA PALDE LE G ATE Sees Materialism and Unrest Threatening WorldEvils of Schools.

CHICAGO, Sept. 20. Unrest and revolutionary tendencies In the industrial, political, educational and religious activities of many nalions were condemned and the nation warned against future degradation by Most Rev, Dlomede Falconlo, papal delegate to the United States, upon his arrival In Chicago.

The papal delegate attributed present conditions to the Increasing materialism of the age and to the adoption of materialistic teachings in the schools of several civilized nations. He said that the prevalence of war threats and of armed revolutions in many parts of the globe were symptoms of the grave conditlou in world affairs. "The, sense of unrest is the chief characteristic of our age," said the prelate. "It permeates the atmosphere of our educational, political, industrial and commercial world. The distrust prevailing among nations, which leads to revolutionary movements and wars, manifests the extent of the unrest as does the avidity for wealth which leads to the accumulation of colossal fortunes, to tho detriment of rational distribution of goods, and as does also the abuse, of personal liberty, which leads men to disregard tho rights of others and to neglect the duties connected with their own state. "There seems to be a determination of our age not only to inherit the evils of all preceding times but to do away with the supernatural enitrely. New sophisms of . surprising ingenuity are added and new deductive arts are invented to augment wornout arguments of assault which were a thousand times victoriously refuted, all in the hope of bringing into submission the simple and unwary. Enemies Have Success. "The efforts of enemies of religion and moral order have In some measure been successful in some Christian nations and there godless schools have been opened, religious practices discredited, monastic and religious Institutions suppressed and a systematic persecution is going on even at present against whatever Is allied with Christian teaching. What is to be the end of this un-Chrlstlan and ungodly movement? If It be true that history repeats itself, what a terrible warning should be for us the downfall of those nations which, after having beef enlightened by Christian religion abandoned it! "As soon as ABla and Africa closed their eyes to the light of the gospel, which had civilized and raado them great,' they fell back to their primatlve degradation and for centuries have remained engulfed in darkness Into which, they fell. Unfortunate nations, what has become of their Christian glory? Ood forbid that such be the fate of any other Christian nation." The prelate gave out the following message to Germans: "We take the same interest in the development of tho Federation of German Catholic Societies as we do for all other similar associations whose aim fs the religious, moral and socla amelioration of the people. As to the German people in particular, I do believe that their inborn respect for authority and order, their love of domestic life, their strong religious

sentiment and their earnestness and seriousness of character are traits which lead us to admire and to Imitate them anw which will prove of great advantage to the development of the nation In which the Germans live."

DAZED THE ARTISL Tne Story of an Early Portrait of Frith by Himself. Hero Is the, amusing history of one of Frith's own portraits painted by himself. The celebrated artist had entirely forgotten Its existence until a friend entered his studio In London one morning and asserted that a capital picture of himself was on view In a small shop in Great Portland street "It's not a bit like what you are now," observed the, friend, "but It may have resembled you some years ago. Go od look at it. , . - . Mr. Frith went and found his oirn Image after an estrangement of fortyfive years. He determined to, buy It, though he had not the faintest recollection, of havlog painted It. "Ah, a portrait!" said Frith to the woman in charge of the shop after be had pretended to-examine several other works. Whose likeness is that?" "That. said the lady, "Is a portrait of the celebrated artist. Frith, painted by himself." "Why. he must be an elderly man," pot la the artist. The woman remarked that he was young once. "Humph r quoth the genial Frith. "Not much of a picture." To this the woman demurred and asked 20 for the canvas. It was Frith's turn to appear surprised. "Well replied the shopkeeper without moving a muscle, "it cost us nearly as- much. We shall make a very email profit ?ou ee, it Is very valuable because the artist Is deceased." "Deceased! exclaimed the astonished painter. "Dead, do you mean?" "Yea sir; died of drink. My husband attended the funeral." Frith bought the picture, but did not revive for son tlcce.

A Witty Reply. Wbeneter tbe United States supreme court on bearing tbe argument of counsel for plaiutif? in error is entirely satisfied that he has no case tbe chief justice is apt to say to counsel for defendant in error that tbe court does not are to bear further argument. At one time Hod. Matthew Carpenter, from Wiscensiu, was counsel for plaintiff in error aDd opened tbe case. Before he was through tbe court was satisfied that there was nothing in it. and so when be bad concluded and counsel for defendant in error arose Chief Justice Waite said. "The court does not care to bear any further argument." Counsel for the other side was a little deaf and. although noticing that the chief Justice spoke, did not bear what he had said and. turning to Mr. Carpenter, who sat beside him, asked what had been said. "Ob, bang it:" replied Carpenter in tones audible to tbe bench. "The chief justice said he would rather give you the case than hear you talk."

Wanted a Diagram. A waiter at a western hotel said to one of the guests at the dinner table: "What kind of pie do you wish? We have peach, apple, pumpkin and lemon." The guest replied, "Give me peach, apple and pumpkin," to which the waiter, with a shrug of his shoulders, a curl of his lips and an appropriate gesture, said, with sarcasm, "What's the matter with the lemon?" An Englishman sitting at an adjoining table, who overheard the conversation, now said to his neighbor, "I beg your pardon, but what was the matter with the lemon?"

Stung! Two strangers met at one of the small tables in a dining car. says tbe New York Sun. They foun1 a common bond in the effort to secure something to eat, and by tbe time the coffee came they were great friends. "I wonder If you will do me a favor," remarked the first one as he covered his check with a substantial bill. The other man seemed receptive, and he continued: "Have you a lower berth for tonight?" The man across the table nodded. "Well. I'm traveling with my mother, who is rather well along In life, and I'm anxious to make bet comfortable. Yould you be kind enough to givo her your berth?" "I should be delighted." responded the stranger. They went back to the sleepef, where the accommodating men was presented to the other's mother, a wblte haired old lady with a charming face. Tbe good Samaritan had exchanged his lower for the upper belonging to the old lady, 'and he was radiating w'th a sense of charitable kindness. It led him to remark affably to the other man: "But where are you going to sleep?" "Oh. that's all right." was the answer; "thafs my lower berth over there."

PLEA FOR SUFFRAGE HORRIFIESJERSIAHS Daring Parliament Member Urges Woman's Rights and Raises Storm.

TELERA.N", Sept. 20. The supporters of woman suffrage should be gratified to learn that even in the midst of the present trials and troubles of Persia, where the ex-Shah has raised his standard and civil war is raging, a champion of the equal rights has been found in the Persian mejliss or parliament. This is Hadji Vakil El Rooy deputy for Hamadan, who recently astonished the house by an impassioned defense of women's rights. The mejliss was quietly discussing the bill for the next election, which takes place in the autumn, and had reached the clause declaring that no woman shall vote. House Given Shock. Discussion on a proposition so obvious seemed unnecessary, and the house shivered when the Vakil EI Rooy mounted the tribune and declared roundly that women possessed souls and should possess votes. Now Vakil El Rooy has heretofore been a grave politician, and the house listened to his harangue in silence, unable to decide whether it was an ill-timed joke or a serious statement. The orator called upon the ulema (priests) to support him, but they failed. The Mutjehid, whom he invoked by name, rose in his place and solemnly declared that he had never in a life of misfortune had his ears assailed by such an impious utterance. Priest Expresses Horror. Nervously and excitedly he denied to women either souls or rights, and declared that such a doctrine would

mean the downfall of Islam. To hear it uttered in the Parliament of the nation had made his hair stand on end. The cleric sat down, and the mejliss members shifted uncomfortably in their seats. The president put the clause in its

original form, and asked the official re

porters to make no record in the journals of the house of this unfortunate incident. The mejliss applauded this suggestion, and turned with relief to the discussion of subjects less disturbing than the contemplation of the possibility that women had souls.

FETE FOR COUPLE MARRIED 60 YEARS Pioneer Californians Still Taking a Course in Cupid's School.

ALAMEDA, Sept. 20. Mr. and Mrs. N. M. Jacobs, of 1319 Pacific avenue, will observe the diamond anniversary of their wedding with an afternoon "at home." They were married in the city of New York on September 14, 1851. The bride of sixty years ago was Miss Rachel Nathan. Jacobs and the young woman who took his name had arrived in the United States a few years previous to their wedding, both coming from London, their native city. Two years after their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Jacobs came to California by way of the isthmus of Panama, arriving here in 1S53. They located in Sacramento, where , for a quarter of a century Jacobs was en

gaged in business. He was one of themost respected early residents of tn capital city, and was prominent 1b the affairs of the Knights of Pythias and the Red Men. J One of the cherished recollections of Jacobs residence in Sacramento is that of the boyhood of the present Governor of California, Hiram Johnson. The pioneer distinctly recalls how the lad Johnson often passed Jacobs store in the morning on his way to school. It was a friendly practice of the merchant to slap the juvenile Johnson on the back and say to him: "How are you this morning, governor? Littto did Jacobs think in those days that his young friend, whom he playfully designated governor, would some day; come to be a real governor.
