Individual Contributions May Bo Addressed Directly to the Ecclesiastic— Text of the Letter Sent to the Apostolic Delegate—Various Seminaries To Be Founded. Washington, Nov. 12.—An Interestins and important letter has been received from Rome by the apostolic delegate. Mgr. Satolll, to be forwarded by him to the archbishops, who are to distribute it to their suffragans. Heretofore the Peter's pence collected each year in every diocese have been sent directly by the bishops to Rome. Now those collections must be transmitted to the delegate. Moreover, any individual who wishes to make in his own name a more liberal contribution than he would ordinarily put in the diocesan collection, may do so by addressing it directly to the pope through the delegate. Following is the letter of the holy father to the bishops: "Among other efficient means of fostering and proving devotedness to the Roman pontiff, one deserves notice—wo mean the financial support given him that he may the more readily provide for the interests of the church. Since the days of the apostles the faithful have given in this matter a noble example which has continued through all the viclsitudes of time and events. This support is justly called Peter's pence. v "Assuredly In these latter days when the rights of the Roman church are unjustly violated and its former means have ceased. It Is a fact worthy of remembrance and commendation that Catholics of almost nation have been so warm in their attachment to the successor of St. Peter as to come in aid of his honorable destitution. In this concert the faithful of your great country (Jeserve a meed of praise, for under the guidance and exhortation of their bishops they have given remarkable proofs of their ardor, of their faith and the native generosity of their hearts. "Useless, then, to urge them to a further continuance of this custom. Our purpose rather, is to point out an arrangement which shall facilitate anil, if possible, also Increase their generosity. Not long ago, as you know, we thought proper to give your diocese and your flocks a special pledge of out affection in the establishment of a permanent apostolic delegation, so that there might be constantly in your midst one who should represent our person and manage your more important affairs In our name with our power Now this Institution naturally suggests the new arrangement we should like t® Ynake as to the Peter's pence It Is this. I'hS collections for this purpose which each bishop orders Ir his dilocese as well as the private contributions that Individual Catholic: may wish to make to the holy fathci In their own names, shall hencefortl be forwarded to and placed to th< credit of the apostolic delegate resld Intj- in Washington. He afterward: •vjill remit the sums to U3 with itemized details. "Your generosity will be most ac ceptable and opportune just now, fo: the needs Increase day by day with ou: growing solicitude for the faith, am especially since the publication of ou late apostolic letter on unity. W' cherish certain projects by which wi hope, not without good grounds, to fos ter and hasten that devoutly wishe< consummation, the reunion of ChrJat cndom. Such, venerable brother, is ou: .jvish in this matter. We know wel und duly praise your willingness to cor respond to our counsels and desires And now we lovingly bestow on your self, your work, your clergy, your peo pie the apostolic benediction as i pledge of God's ehoioest blessings tha unfailing success may attend your pas torate. "Given at Rome, in St. Peter's, th< 16th day of September, 18D4, the 17tl year of our pontificate. "LEO P. P., XIII." The projects above referred to are seminaries to be founded at various points in the Orient, Athens, Smyrna, Corfu and others. The letter also, it Is understood, Implies that priests and people are expected to avail themselves of this opportunity to show their pleasure at the establishment of the apostolic delegation. The transmission of this letter has been to some extent foreshadowed in United Press dispatches from Rome. It must not, however, be confounded with the forthcoming encyclical, Which will appear in due course. Instructive Chineno Games. Curator Stuart Culin of the university of Pennsylvania museum, who haa gathered together the finest collection of games ever made in the world, haa made an interesting1 discovery in his study of the Corean sports. The Chinese games arc all marked by a literary character, the game of logomachy, or word-building, which has gained such popularity in this country, having been played long ago by Corean school children. "A number of their games," ha declares, "had their origin from mystio concepts. Many of the childish sports had originally a serious divinistie or expiatory significance. The tug of war, for instance, was played by the people of villages and districts to ascertain which would be the luckier. Kites were used as scapegoats, being released with inscriptions to the effect that they were carrying away misfortune. Mere toys were not numerous. Some of the games possess a decidedly ethnic character, and their study promises to furnish conclusions of some importance."—Phila- Philadelphia Record. Desperate Negro Kobhors. Plalnfleld, N. J., Nov. 12.—Maxson Dunham, a thrifty farmer on the Piscatawney road, upon returning from the Seventh Day Baptist church went to the barn with his horse, after leaving his wife at the house. As he was leaving the barn a heavy-built negro attacked him and tried to strangle him. He managed to make an outcry, when another negro came from the house and escaped with Mr. Dunham,s assailant. Going to the house, Mr. Dunham found that the second negro had assaulted Mrs. Dunham with a club, Inflicting terrible wounds about her head, when she refused to tell where her money was kept. He fled when he heard Mr. Dunham's cries for help. The woman's condition Is not very dangerous.

Henry Powell Commits Murder and Rochester, Pa., Nov. 12.—Henry Powell shot and fatally wounded Mrs. Saplra McLaughlin and then killed himself at Vlcary, two miles north of here. Jealousy Is supposed to have been the cause of the crime. Mrs. McLaughlin was a widow with three children and Powell boardted with her. PoweH was married and the father of a family, but did not live with his wife. Saturday night after Mrs. McLaughlin's children were put to bed three shots were heard down stairs. An investigation showed that Powell had shot the woman twice in the head and then put a bullet through his own brain, dying instantly. Mrs. McLaughlin cannot live. She came here from New Cumberland, W. Va., and had Intended moving to East Liverpool so as to be rid of Powell's attentions. The dead man was employed In the Freedman oil refinery. ■<r~: —Louisa of Savoy, the mother Of Francis I., was the widow who made life a burden for the great Constable Bourbon.

His appointment has provoked so many comments from the unofficial newspapers, that the Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung felt moved to publish a general defense of the government's course In the present crisis. The burden of the article was that the German dailies erred in attacking msti and should withhold their criticisms until they should learn the nature of the measures to be introduced by tho now ministers. The National Zeitung, national liberal, replies: "The choice of Frelherr von Hammerstein is deplorable in itself, What measures are to be expected from a man who has Identified himself with the active agitation of the agrarians and has negotiated for the restoration of tho Guelpii fund to the Duke of Cumberland?" In hl3 Frelsinnlge Zeitung Eugen Richter says n a defiant article: "Wo desire an explanation of the role which Herr von Lucanus, chief of his majesty's civil cabinet, played in the shuffling of cards before this ministerial crisis. It is declared publicly and credibly that Herr von Lucanus, before crisis, approached secretly Ahcl ttf-pru J rately Prince Bismarck, Count von Ca- privi, Prince Hohenlohe and several ministers, £8 sound their opinions on certain subjects." Jllchter does not dare to accuse the emperer directly of preparing the dramatic wreck of his cabinet, but he asks significantly: "What business had Herr von Eucanus to meddle thus with the ministers? What were his alms? .Who put him up to this sort of work?" Emperor "William undoubtedly haa got himself into an unenviable position. He has found it necessary to explain the crisis even to his closest ally and family friend, the Grand Duke of Baden. On the eve of Caprivi's fall the grand duke was In Berlin and was convinced that all was harmony between chancellor and emperor. He left the city at once, but before his express train could land him in Karlsruhe, everything was upset, Caprivl and Eulenburg had gone, and the whole cabinet was shaking. The grand duke was thoroughly angered and under the levulslon of feeling against the emperor, suddenly appointed Frelherr von Bodmann to be his special envoy at Munich and Stuttgart. His purpose in re- Viewing these obsolete missions was to arrange for a closer understanding Among the south German courts so that they might watch and influence imperial matters more advantageously. Semi-official newspapers pretend that Bodmann's mission haa no bearing on the crisis but relates solely to south German questions, but It Is plain that the emperor has been forced Into a half apologetic position. Prince Hohenlohe's hasty visit to Karlsruhe cannot be explained on any other ground than the necessity of appeasing tha grand duke. Prince Hohenlohe will stay in Strassburg four days. The new governor will meet him there, although he will not enter office for two or three weeks. On Tuesday Prince Hohenlohe will be honored with a farewell demonstration by the civil and military fitnctlonarles, the presidents of the German societies in the Reichsland, the mayor and municipal councillors of Strassburg and about everybody else except the implacable protestors. Proposals to take London, Nov. 12.—The British cruiser Calypso, of the training squadron, was sighted yesterday sixty miles north of the Canary islands. She parted from the rest of the squadron in a gale a few days ago, and when the other vessels reached Las Pal mas without her much anxiety for her safety was felt. The Calypso Sighted. m mm V
