STATUE BEING MADE
FOR A LIVING POET
PARIS.—Not every great poet can
look at his own statue during his life
time. Frederic Mistral, the tnmorta.
author of "Mireille,” will soon be able
to do this.
M. Roux, a former deputy of the
Bouches-du-Rhone, has demanded au
thorization from the mayor of \rles
to erect a bronze statue of Mistra.
in the Place du Ferum, and to pre
sent it to the town on the occasion of
the 50th appearance of “Mireille'’ on
February 2, 1909.
The mayor and municipal council
of Arlesn welcome the proposal and
will accept with gratitude the statue
of the great Provencal poet. The
statue will be executed by the sculp

LONDON.—The great Pan-Angeli
can Congress is,over, and no truer
echo of the spirit which brooded over
its deliberations was given than the
words of the bishop of Missouri, who.
as presiding bishop of the Episcopal
church in the United States, gave the
final sermon at the thanksgiving ser
vice in St. Paul's cathedral,
“We can claim," he said, "that it
was in no pride or pomp or lust of
power that we gathered in the Lam
beth conference as in the Pan-Angeli
can Congress. Obstacles had no
place; we arranged to look our errors
and our weakness in the face. We
hav e tried to find out ways by which
we might commend the church to the
sympathy and affection of all Chris
tians. We have not taken counsel of
our hopes if such hopes smacked of
pride, prerogative or pretension. We
have honestly thought out the best
ways in which the influence ot the
clutch in her historic authority, her
balanced teaching, her comprehensive
ness, patience and charity might over
flow and abound to the giory of God
and the good of all men.”
The thorniest subject with which
the bishop had to deal was unques
tionably their resolutions as regarded!
marriage. These practically amount*'
ed to the understanding tliat, under!
no circumstances, either for the guilty'
or for the innocent party in divorce
could the church grant her blessing
to any other marriage contract, al
though the innocent party in a di
vorce was not necessarily excommuni
cated. if they availed themselves of
the civil privilege of remarriage.
The encyclical letter published as
a result of the Lambeth conference by
the Archbishop of Canterbury speaks
solemnly of the growing disregard of
the marriage tie, and calls for “the
active, determined co-operation of all
t ight-thiuking and clean-living men
ami women in all ranks of life in de
fense of the fantilj life and the so
cial order which rest upon the sanct
ity of the marriage tie.”
The encyclical also protests very
strongly as a result or the congress
against all measures which have led
to the decline of the birth rate “as
dangerous to th e purity of home life
and surversive of the essential ele
ments of the Christian ideal of mar
riage.”
FRENCH LOSE GROUND
IN CHINESE COLONY
PARIS.—“We have lost, Morocco
and we are in a fair way of losing
Tonkin," says old Henri Rochefort
in his latest vitnporature article
against the French government. His
outburst is inspired by the news
from Indo, China, according to which
it must be confessed that the situa
tion in France's great Chinese colon’-'
looks decidedly black. Revolutionary
principles seem to be making tre
mendous headway among the inhabi
tants, who are represented as being
in certain districts on the verge of
open rebellion. What is more seri
ous still is that by all accounts dis
affection is spreading among the na
tive troops. Organized raids by na
tives armed with modern rifles, are
of daily ocenronee and whole villages
