Argentine Over $50,000 Deposit\u2014Up To Firpo \u2014\u2014 New York, Feb.24\u2014Negotiations by which a New York syndicate headed by Lew Raymond sought to arrange a heavyweight match between Luls Angel Firpo and Harry Wills next July, probably will be abandoned definitely within a few days.This was forecast to-night when it was learned that the syndicate, in the face of the present deadlock with Firpo over the place of deposit of a\u2019 $60,000 forfeit, intended to impose further conditions on the Boutb American in event that he accepted the terms.The conditions would cal for f'irpo to place himaelf under control of the syndicate upon his arrival in this country and until the fight with Wille in order to obviate any steps on the part of the Argentine which would damage hls drawing power.Though such a stipulation wae held by the syndicate to be necessary in order to protect Its proposed investment, a spokesman for it admitted to-night that here was little chance of Frpo accepting such terms even if other difficulties were removed.The syndicate, it was dleciosed, in- imded to deposit the $50,000 in = New York bank some time this week ag evidence of ite good faith,

Senate Ottawa, Feb.34 \u2014 Dacks are being cleared for the opening of Parliament by the Governor-Gen- eral on Thursday next.For weeks past the Cabinet has been meeting almost every day on the revision of estimates and the consideration of sessional bisiness generaly.The next few days will be devoted to the speech from the Throne in which His Excellency will outline the Government's legislative programme for the session.Redistribution, which was before a specila) committee last session but failed to pass, will again be submitted to Parliament.The bili to provide for branch line construction on the Canadian National is to be reintroduced; and here there seems likellhood of a sharp clash with the Senate.List year the Senate threw out the Government branch line bill on the ground that it embodied a three- year constructional programme.» Opponents of the measure took the view that the work should proceed by way of annual est'mates instead of a three-year programme.This year's bill, it has been intimated, however, will again embody the three-year principle, Its fate in the Upper House will be followed with unusual interest.Many Other Features, Other features of the Governments programme (some of these, however, are basnd merely on con- Jjecture) are likely to be:\u2014 Buperannuation scheme for the evil service with possible limitation of the powers of the Civil Service Commission.Amendment of the Militia Act in regard to the calling out of troops during a strike.Elimination from the Immigraton\u2019 Act lind Criminal Cé8e of the more drastic provisions regarding sedition.Changes ir the of the Bales Tax.Amendment of the Bank Act re- upecting inspection.Amendment of the act passed last season in regard to freight rates on the Great Lakes, Amendment to the Dominion Elect'ons Act.Apart from the programme of the Government private members will have a host of toples for discussion in the House either by way of academic resolutions or legisia- tive proposals, Fallure of Home Bank.The fallure of the Home Bank is expected to be before the House in the early days of the session.There will be discussions on the St.Lawrence waterway project,

a faith which, from the finn footing ot eternal truth, issues its confident challenge to the dull inertia of atheistic materialism, Such a cry can bo heard im every page of an inspiring book entitled \u201cThree Measures of Meal,\u201d which ita author, Hev.Frank G Vial, Professor of Pastoral Theology at Bishop's College, Lennoxville, very modestly describes as à stady in religion and which has only recently been published by the Oxford University Press, We believe it was the late General Booth who on0e observed that there was no roason why the Devil should have all the good tunes and Professor Vial evidently wees no reason why the rationalist showld bave all the controversial weapons of modern scholars ship.\u201cScldom,\u201d as he says, \u201ccxcept by writers who labor to explain away the Divine Character of the Obwewch, has the human factor in the conjunetion of force and material been weatod at large.\u201d And the purpose of his dreidediy original work 1s to under- tase that treatment from the point of view of a writer who labors to vindicate the Church's Divinity, The scope nnd character of the authors treat ment of his subject can best he conveyed by further quotation.Thus \u201cthe ieaven is force, the three men- sarea of meal are matter So it the leaven represented all the force of Divine labor which our Rlesmed Lord made available, the three measures of weal represent \u2018the mame of humanity,\u2019 which is to be permeated, energized.and transformed thereby, .When these two factors combine, the resultant Is not lekven of greater potency than before, nor is it mea) im greater quantity, but it is 8 new mubetance.\u201cThus the Kingdom of God sffects the kingdoms of the world.The resultant ls no longer a thing pure- ty and remotely Divine, nor à thing futilely human; it © 3» thing transformed by its concealed force from ite atin] dry and unpaintable condition Into something wholesome and nourishing.It in not leaven, it fe not médai.It le » terttam quid which blows of discipline and tho fumace of affliction have made to become © nourishment of nallons and the food of saints.\u201d se es *.9 0 With this understanding it can be further ex- mained that MFrofespor Viel, schaustively, and.In no doing, leads Sp to the queries, mam diminish the vital force tn any way?forca vanish, become oe rt: + thems he te candid olbagh\u2019 -Atfinuatiye, but Imetone to aad that the.Sitar « ton ar ¢ patig is relative rather an abeoluie.\u201cPerlodk of yefarmation ang rovival of spiritual Iie, Ho insits, \u201cmark tho stages of religions development snd point tu the\u2019 permanent pressace of: the vie) foros, cugaged pucoceufally im its Mavening processes,\u2019 abeorbing mud transforming the weterisl of Us em virommont-\u2014chaugine the dry mel of human nature Into the freah bread of a divinely moved mankind.\u201d A separate section of the book is devoted to esch of tte three messnres of mes, which sre (he Hebrowthe Greek and the Roman civilisations.\u201cThe anelent fabric society, te anciens mien of thomght, cseept im so far as thoy have beem absorbed and asimilated through the vitai force of the Christian communities, have vanished, \u201cwe are told.\u201cThe history of the Christian Society disçounte all pcesimiem, and whatever fluctuations of apiritani energy there have beca, and may be, the vital force ie as strong as over and, through the transforased meal, which ve may call the Catholic Church, is preparing itself for greater conquests than those of primitive times.By reason of this vital force, this Divino leaven, the Catholic Church Is the one entity which has had a continuous, unbroken and majestic life.The Christian Society was the heir of the ancient worid, and through tt has been dispensed to modern civilisation what would otherwise have been irretrievably lost, the thought, the law, the custom of Hellas and of Rome.\u201d .It would be difficult to imagine n more belptel corrective for anemic faith than this book of Professor Vial's which is so clearly writtem as to be appreciated hy the ordinary layman scarcely less than by the Informed theologian and which is able to confront dis- terbing realities with the most serene optimism.One final quotation will set before the reader the oon- clusion (0 wich he comes: \u201cHeresies arive, but vanish again; schisms rend the Church bat are healed.The disunion of Christendom from which we are now suffering has a long his- wry, and the causes of it are complex, but somehow foels to-day that the world is passing through a rovolutionary phase in which things hated and things loved alike will disappear, and with them will dismp- pear also the barriers which have kept tho disciples of Christ asunder.The City of God has survived many & storm; it witnessed the break-up of the strongest and most compact sovereignty that perhaps over existed, and it nourished the barbarian races of Furope, and developed our modern civilization.If ft should be God's Will that this should collapse, well and good.\u2018We shall still dwell in the City of God a city glorious beyond compare, whether we view it as lt still ltves by faith In this fleeting course of time, and fares as a stranger in the midst of the implous, or as it shall abide in the fixed stability of ita eternal seat, which it now with patience waits for, expecting until \u2018righteousness shall return unto judgment,\u2019 and it obtains, by virtue uf its excellence, final victory and perfect beace.\u201d Exit the carnival!
