THE Emperor of Japan has notified Mr. Griscon, the American Minister
in Tokio, of his intention to give ten thousand yen (£1,000) to the
army branch of the Young Men's Christian Association. On the
out-break of the war the Association opened branches at the principal
bases in Manchuria, followed the armies in the field, and opened"
recreation and reading tents. The movement has been successful,
and the commendation of the Japanese commanders has gained the
Emperor's recognition and assistance.--The Press often chronicles
the reception of " Anglicans" into the Roman Catholic Church, but
the reception of Roman CatholJcs into the English Church is less
frequently notified. Last month at St. J ude's Church, Mildmay Park,
N., the Vicar, the Rev. W. D. Kieth-Steele, held a special service for

conversation," and also publicly "desired to be received into the
Communion of the Church of England," were duly received by the
Vicar, acting under the authority of the Bishop of London. St. Jude's,
Mildmay, is widely known as the scene of the Evangelical ministry
of the late beloved Rev. William Pennefather, the founder of the
1\1ildmay Conference Hall.--The Editor of Watchword and Truth (an

one on the back, it has become the habit to speak kindly even of the
Jesuits. It is well that some facts of their history should be known.
In 1773 Pope Clement XIV suppressed this Order, and here is an
extract from his 'Bull ': 'Under the reign of this same Clement XIII the
times became more difficult and tempestuous; compla.ints and quarrels
were multiplied on every side; in some places dangerous seditions
arose, tumults, discords, dissensions, scandals, which weakening or
entirely breaking the bonds of Christian charity, excited the faithful
to a.ll the rage of party, hatreds, and enmities. Desolation and danger
grew to such a height, that the very Sovereigns, whose piety and
liberality towards the Company were so well known as to be looked
upon as hereditary in their families-we mean our dearly-beloved
