Dismissed By The Pope

ORDER SENT BY HAND AFTER REFUSAL TO RESIGN

First Case For Centuries

Paris, June 1. THE Pope has deposed Mgr. de la Villerabel, Archbishop

of Rouen.

!

Ecclesiastical circles here, believe that it is the first time an archbishop has ever been deposed by the Pope. If such an event has happened it was many centuries ago.

The "Religious Bulletin" published to-day in France, an- nounces the following:

"Mgr. Jean Chollet, Arch- bishop of Cambrai, having been named by decree of the Sacred Congregation of the Consistorial, apostolic administrator of the diocese of Rouen a vacant seat, took possession on Saturday, Second of May."

"He assembled the Vicars- General and informed them that their positions would be main- tained."

The main reason for it is that the Archbishop took netlon against his private secretary in connection with the cathedral funds in the civil court instead of in the occlesiastical courts

Mgr. Chollet left the room and went to Rouen Cathedral. Ilere he sum- moned the canons and vicars-general and announced to them that there was no longer an Archbishop.

Those officials of the cathedral who' were attached to Mgr. Villerabel personally then resigned, and were reinstated under the administration of Mgr. Chellet.

Mgr. Villerabel confirmed what had happened to him to-day but declined to make a statement about the future. Mgr. Chollet will remain at the Archbishopric until the Pope names a new archbishop.

The name of Cardinal Lienart has been mentioned here as a possible acceptor.

The charge against the Monsignor is described here as "rebellion against the Vatican."

Speller

Asks Easier Words

Gloucester, Mas., June 4. Harriet K. Karcher, .13-year- old Gloucester high school scholar can spell practically any word in the English language, but she doesn't think much of the way some of them are spell- ed.

Claimed by her backers to be the champion speller in the world, Miss Karcher thinks spalling of many words should be simplified. She adds, however, that the small- est words give her the greatest difficulty.

Some of the "easy words”, are hypocrisy, daguerreotype; baccalan

isosceics and Ichthyology,

ce, wo have so many Ichthyologists in Gloucester that said

I know that word any do not Miss Karcher! If you ktow, an ichthyologist is a fisher- man-at least one who studies fish.
