PARIS, Dec. 14 ~The critical day In
the history of France as opening the

the total absence of any of the sensa-
tional or dramatic incidents anticipat
ed In alarmist quarters io connection
with the execution of the law of sep
aration.

served for the evacuation of the secle
siastical residences, the seminaries, eic
Several of these buildings were aban-
doned without further ado, but & wa-
Jority of the prelates, while fully pre
pared te go, announced that they
would not depart except under duress,
In many parishes, both in Paris and
the Interior, Catholic laymen came for-
ward and spontaneously filed declara-
tions for the Lolding of services In the
designated churches during the comiug
year. If this practice is generally fol-
lowed it will be a distinct victory for
the government, relieving it of the pos-
sible necessity of closing the churches
and throwing on the clergy the re
sponsibility for the discontinnance of
public worship
During the day summonses were Is
suad charging lllegal assemblies in the
case of six of the churches of Paris
The Official Journal aupounced that
only eighty of the Catholic cultural or
diocesan associations formed were
legal, while S02 Protestant and 78 Jew-
ish associations conform with the law.
There was an lmpressive response to
the clergy's appeal to their parishion-
ors to attend the first miss celebrated

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14 President!
Roosevelt bas withdrawn bis simplified |
spelling onder to the public prioter,
and hereafter all documents from the
executive departmuents will again be
printed In the old fashioned style.
Representative Landis of the joint]
committee on spelling had a confer
ence with the president, who stated!
that he did not wish to have spelling
overshadow matters of great mpor|
tance and expressed a willlogness to
revoke his order for the new spelling,
in case the house of representatives
should go on record gj opposed to the!
aystew,
| Accordingly Mr, Landis Introduced
| the following resolution In the house:
{| “Resolved, That It Is the sense of
| the house of representatives that here |
i after In printing reports, documents or |
other publications authorized by law,
ordered by congress or either branch
thereof or emanating from the execu |
tive departments, their bureaus or!
branehes, and Independent officers of |
the government, the government print
ing office should observe aud adhere to
the standard of orthography prescribed |
in generally accepted dictionaries of
the English language” :
The measure was passed without a
dissenting vote. Mr. Gillett (Mass), |
who favored it, sald he saw that Lhe
house was overwhelmingly against the
innovation, and cousequently be bowed
| to Its will.
| The system of reform spelling was
put Into effect by the president during
the recess of cougress, and all public]
documents supplied to the executive]
departments have been printed in the
simplified way. These documents have
been pouring in on congress ever since
the opealng day, much to the dissatis-|
faction of a large majority of the em-|
bers of the house {
As a result the government printing |
office was using two forms of spelling
In public printing—the staid, old meth
od for congress and the reform method
In the executive documents. This caus |
ed confusion and comment unfavorable |
to the reform and finally was made an |
issue between the legislative and o-|
partment having previously frowned
apon the president's order.
