Italy, Sept 16.—Alarmed by the spread of extreme liberalism even among the Roman Catholic clergy, the pope Issued an encyclical today in con. damnation of “modernism.” The bitterness of the attack on the Ideas of the "new theology" and dras tic “methods" outlined for Its suppres sion so far as the Roman Catholic church la concerned, render the pope's message to bis people by far the most Important of the present pontificate. For the future It promises as wide spread controversy as that over Pope Plus IX’s promulgation of the dogma ■ of the Immaculate conception. ''Modernism." says the encyclical, "Is the peril of the church. Its reforms I In faith, philosophy, theology and his tory are errors which drive support ers Into atheism and boundless curios ity, pride. Individualism and disregard of true knowledge and discipline have actually spreads its evil among the clergy." Philosophy and theology, the ency clical decrees, must be taught In Cath olic schools and universities hereafter i in complete accord with the spirit of the church. A board of censors is or dered established In every diocese to revise and edit all Catholic publica tions, and ecclesiastics are forbidden from sending papers through the malls or otherwise directing them without the bishop’s consent. Clerical congresses are forbidden, ex. cept In cases where the danger of "modernism” and "laldsm" has been . rigidly excluded. A board of super visors Is to be formed In every diocese to prevent the spread of "new errors." Bishops are Instructed that they must report Individually to the pope regard ing matters covered In the encyclical. SEASON TICKETS For the Great Lyceum Course going fast.

"I do not mind stating," he sold, "that I have the matter under advisement I am satlstied, from the assurances and the representations made to me, that I have a splendid chance of being elected. My friends are conlldent that I would command the support of a ma jority of the citizens of Atlanta. "The only obstacle 1 am encounter ing Is the doubt In my mind as to whether or not I could afford the mate rial sacrifice that would have to be made. A man who has built up a law practice, no matter how great or how small, must of necessity sacrifice a great part of it *to properly perform the duties that would devolve upon him in such an important position us mayor. The law requires that the mayor shall devote three hours of his time dally to the business of the city. I know this Is not sufficient. The mayor should devote practically the entire day to the city, und. with this belief and conviction, I would, If elected, so devote my time." <‘clone!

C., fcept. 16.-Mrs. Ethel W. JHuJr, charged w-Jtb the murder of her hue* hand, M. V. Itlalr, a conductor on the Co lumbia. Newberry and Lawrence railroad. Iii January last, was yesterday convicted of inatirlaughter with a recommendation to merry. When Mrs. Blair was brought Into the court room there were no risible signs of the ordeal that she hss lust passed through, hut on hearing the verdict she fainted and had to be lifted from tbo court room. , Within an hour after the verdict Mfii. Blair had reonvered rnffldently to be taken rto the county Jail. She Had been out on bond since the killing. On January 10 last McCulley Vf. Blair, conductor on the road between Columbia and Laurens, waa shot to death at his home on Marlon street. The fatal wound, it was charged, was Inflicted by a beautiful woman—his own wife. At the Inqulaltlon made by the coro ner there was startling evidence, and tho wife of the deceased was placed in arrest. Captain Blair was 53 years of age; his wife 30. He was a victim of a ter rible disease of the stomach, which re quired constant medical treatment. There was apparently no affinity be tween the two. The homicide presented many points of Interest, not alone from the crimi nal side, but from the psychological. Evidence submitted shows that Mrs. Blair appreciated the lack of affinity between herself and hor husband. Three brothers married three sisters, and two of the others met death by violence.
