July 31.—Charles Craven, the negro murderer of William H. Wilson, an ex-Confederate soldier, at the latter's home in Loudoun county, Va., was captured tl\is morning near Bluemont. Sheriff Russell took charge of the prisoner. Thus far the mob that has been pursuing him for the past three days has been eluded and it is hoped by the authorities that they will be able to protect the negro from lynching. The story originates in an article in the Iteylcw Itoshlegy, written by Kubellk's brother, Vaeluv, who says that Jan is a pressure that is ruinous to his mmlth and nerves and that despite his jnormous earnings Ixdoes not possess a farthing of his own. The article adds that Kuhclik is kept a prisoner and prevented from seeing his family and friends.

It is said that the pontiff has firmly resisted all pressure to induce him to interfere in the French schools question. He Is credited with saying that the persecution of religious Isidies in countries dearest to liim Is most painful and embittering to the closing days of his pontificate, but that he feels that nny protest or action on his part would only qiake matters worse and might even menace the solidarity of the Catholic religion.
