At the Vatican, extraordinary importance is being given the Pope's episcopal jubilee next year. The central organizing committee has already received notice of thousands of gifts to

be sent. To collect all the donations more than 300 committees have been formed in all parts of Christendom. From reports' received from there it is believed the presents will equal, or perhaps excel, those made on the occasion of Leo's priestly jubilee, when they amounted to upward of $5,000,000 in cash and $20,000,000 in other presents.

The special commission appointed to arrange the fetes in connection with the jubilee has decided that a great international pilgrimage shall take place next September, in order, that those who may not be able to attend the fetes during the first six months of 1893 may have an opportunity of paying their homage to his February to 1893.
