BISHOP BROSSART'S ANSWER.
When Right Rot. Ferdinand Bros-
sart. Bishop-elect of Covington, was
pastor at Lexington during the late
seventies, tho town was visited by
a virulent small-pox epidemic. In
an effort to stem tho spread of tho
disease, the city established an isola
tion hospital, two miles out in tho
country, and in this were housed
twenty-seven hopeless patients, all
victims of that most loathsome form
of disease, black small-pox. Thero
was not a Catholic among them,
but when Ihey felt the near approach
of death they cried for spiritual re
lief. The attending physician, Dr.
Taylor, himself a convert, set out to
seek a minister. He made the rounds
of the town and called upon overy
Protestant clergyman In Lexington,
but none of these would rlBk a visit
to tho pest bouse. The physician
then returned to his patients and
told them of the failure of his mis
sion. Tho poor creatures begged
him to try the Catholic priest; and
the doctor called upon Father Bros
sart, at that time pastor of St. Paul's
church, and explained tho pitiable
situation. Tho young priest mounted
his horse at oifce and hastened on
his mission of mercy. Ho arrived at
the hospital and was met by the
warden. When that official learned
that ho had com to visit the vic
tims of thq black small-pox, ho ex
claimed in amazement: "Father
Brossart, I wouldn't go in that placo
for a thousand dollars."
"Nor would I for a thousand dol
lars." replied tho priest; "but If any
good can 'bo done for the salvation
of an Immortal soul, I'll go." And
go he did, after taking tho necessary
precautions against spreading the
disease on his return to the city. On
entering tho pest house ho found
tho twenty-seven stricken men and
women lying upon their cots, raoBt
of them perilously near death's door.
So glad wero they to see him that in
their Joy they grasped his arm,
kissed his hands, and even tried to
embrace him. Ho worked with
feverish rapidity, fearful lest for
come he might be too late. By 2
o'clock in tho morning his labor of
lovo was finished; he had hurriedly
instructed his neophytes as best he
could, administered to them the
uavlng sacraments of baptism, pen
ance and extreme unction, and com
forted them with the solacing consid
eration of our holy Tellglon. All of
them died, but tho heroic young
priest had the sweet satisfaction of
having helped them to meet their
God with confident faith in the sav
ing merits of our dear Lord and
("Saviour, Jesus Christ.

NOTHING SENSATIONAL.
Wo have been asked to comment
on tho reported approval by Cardinal
Gibbons of tho "Billy" Sunday re
vival in Baltimore, says tho rev
erend editor of tho True Voice. If
the editors had read carefully the
dispatch from Baltimore they would
have used a different heading for it
What the Cardinal said, according
to tho dispatch, was that he was
glad to approve Sunday's soundness
of doctrine in certain great truths
neglected by many (Protestant)
churches and that he had no objec
tion to the Sunday commtltee Bond
ing letters to his priests asking pray
ers for tho success of tho Sunday
ampalgn. That Is quite a different
thing from giving his approval to
tho Sunday campaign. Whorover
riunday has gone throughout tho
country it has been widely comment
ed upon that ho preached a great
deal of Catholic doctrine. The
fundamental truths of Christianity
have been insisted upon in most of
his discourses. He has preached the
divinity of the Saviour, tho punish
ment of sin and our responsibility to
God for our conduct. So far, so
good. These aro truths thnt too
many Protestant churches are
neglecting today. But they aro not
tho whole of Catholic doctrine. Sun
day drives home many Catholic doc
trines to his hearers. But he does
not himself accept the whole of
Catholic doctrine nor does he teach
it. For tho Catholic truths that ho
expounds so fearlessly ho deserves
commendation. That is a different
thing from commending the rejec
tion of tho whole of Catholic teach
ing or approving of his preaching as
a whole. Tho Cardinal has not gone
farther in this respect thnn have
others who have studied Sunday and
his sermons. It is hard to seo what
objection tho Cardinal could have
to the Sunday committee sending
letters to. his priests. That by no
moans implies that ho wishes them
to join in the Sunday campaign for
"trail hitters." Wo believe the
priests of Baltimoro know their duty
In this respect, and they can bo
trusted to discharge it. Wo think
that tho editors who made a sensa
tion out of the Baltimoro dispatch
either misread it or misjudged it.
There was nothing sensational in the
Cardinal's action. Cardinal Gibbons
says many good things for publica
tion and he is known for his broad
mindedness. But he does not do
sensational things. Ho leaves that
to newspaper editors to do.

RELIGIOUS CENSUS SURPRISES.
Hartford, Conn., according to the
religious census just completed by
the Connecticut Bible Socioty, has

Roman Catholic families. Despite

CathollCB have more than 10,000
more members of their families. In
other words, the Catholic families

bers for the Protestants, or more
than one more to a family. The
Jews, with 3,882 families and 16,849
persons, have a still higher average
