SECRET OF CATHOLIC MISSION
ARY SUCCESS.
Mr. Hilliard Attridge comments on
the Strange opinions of the West
minster Gazette in the matter of the
Rikuyu incident, and the intercom
munion of Anglican and Evangelican
Protestants. The Gazette is of the
opinion that the uniformity of doc
trine and practice which may be de
ferable at home cannot be insisted
upon abroad, where heathen and Mo
hammedans abound. Mr. Attridge
says:
"You say that a great Church prop
agating Christianity in the wilds of
the world cannot be thus definite in
its standards of belief and practice.
But here hard facts are against your
theory. For it is precisely the Church
that insists on the most precise stand
ards of belief that recruits the largest
number of new adherents in the wilds
of the world. In China the Roman
Catholic missionaries now have 1,750,
000 converts, including at one end of
the scale men of the lettered class, at
the other the aboriginal tribesmen of
the Yunnan hill country, and the
nomads of the Mongolian Steppe. If
we take the official returns of the
Anglican missions, and add to them
those of a score of other Protestant
bodies, we have a total for the her
alds of a vaguer gospel, and this
amounts in all to 324,000 adherents,
of whom only 167,000 are claimed as
baptized Christians (see 'China Year
Book'). The grand total is less than
that of the Catholic of the single
province of Chili. It would appear,
then, that what appeals to men is the
message of those who hold that there
Is a real revelation, conveying a defi
nite knowledge of objective truths, not
the theory of a Church, or a group of
Churches, which are content to attach
no precise meaning to their formu
laries, and which permit the gospel of
white, black, and grey to be preached
side by side, by ministers who agree
to differ. Behold the Kikuyu problem
is this deeper question: Is the mes
sage of the Gospel a definite one, or
is it something so vague that it does
not greatly matter what those who
receive it believe and practice?"
WHERE CHILDREN RULE.
The Mission Always a Refuge for the
Quarrelsome Gilbertine.
The'idle, or it might be said, the
la£$r Gilbertine, though so averse to
action is nevertheless very hasty tem
pered. Recently a man attacked and
almost killed two of his comrades be
cause they mockingly called him
"burned mouth" on account of a dis
coloration of his teeth.
Quarrels are frequent among these
people, and the wounded are brought
to the nearest mission to be healed.
The children give way to paroxysms
of anger, unchecked by their parents.
When a woman becomes enraged she
rushes to the woods to hang herself.
All the members of the family follow,
and usually persuade her to return
home. No matter how incensed a Gil
bertine may be» however, if one of his
children is put into his arms he grows
calm and tractable. Strangely enough,
in a Gilbertine household the little
children rule. The child's slightest
Wish is gratified if possible. This is
advantageous for the missionary, for
when the children set their hearts
upon attending the mission school,
their choice is not opposed.
JUNE ROSES FOR THE SACRED
HEART.
Brinfc roses to the Sacred Heart in
June—roses of faith—roses of hope
and roses of charity. Make a big
cluster of them, and mix them with
the June roses you lay on the altar
during this month dedicated to the
feacred Heart. Thus begins the ap
peal of Shiela Mahon for the colored
missions of the South. The very
color of the flowers, she writes,
are symbolical—red, like the life
blood that flowed from His Heart
for our redemption. What les
sons the flowers teach us of the
beauty and magnificence and glory of
God! What human sculptor can vie
iwith the Divine in creating beauty or
what painter can give even a poor
imitation of the beauties of nature?
Idle, useless work it seems a mock
ery at times even to try, for none can
hope to excel the Divine painter of all.
But there is one thing we can do to
make up for our deficiencies and show
our love for the Divine giver of all
things—Armed with Faith, Hope and
Charity we can bring souls to God,
seek out less favored races who are
in want of spiritual instruction, and
by our prayers and good works assist
in their salvation. We have not far
to go to seek souls who are thirsting
for salvation.
At home with us is the Negro, mil
lions of whom have not been baptized
—and millions of whom are craving
religion. In the South the Catholic
jNegro children are praying constantly
for the salvation of their race. Count
less rosaries are being offered up in
an endless chain. Now prayers to the
Sacred Heart are being said. Will
you join in the good work and by
your prayers or donations to the Cath
olic Missien established by the Hier­

THE PAPACY IN THE MIDDLE
AGES.
Johann Ancillon, a Protestant cler
gyman, who was professor of history
in the Royal Military Academy of Ber
lin, in his work, "Tableau des Revo
lutions du Systeme Politique de l'Eur
ope," says:
"During the Middles Ages, when
there was no social order, the Pa
pacy alone perhaps saved Europe
from total barbarism. It created
bonds of connection between the most
distant nations it was a common cen
ter, a rallying point for isolated
States. ... It was a supreme
tribunal, established in the midst of
universal anarchy, and its decrees
were sometimes as respectable as they
were respected. It prevented and ar
rested the despotism of the emperors,
compensated for the want of equilibri
um and diminished the inconvenience
of the feudal system."
The great Protestant writer, Von
Leibnitz, in his treatise, "De Actorum
publicorum usu," says:
"It must be confessed that the solic
itude of the Popes concerning the
canons and ecclesiastical discipline
was from time to time most benefi
cial and that, by influencing kings, in
season and out of season, either by
the authority of their office, or by the
threat of ecclesiastical censures, the
Pontiffs hindered many evils. And
nothing was more common than that
kings should subject themselves, in
their treaties, to the censure and cor
rection of the Pope, as in the Treaty
of Bretigny, in 1360, and in the Treaty
of Etaples, in 1492."
Southey, in his "Book of the
Church," says:
"Politically, too, the Papacy was the
savior of Europe—for, in all human
probability, the West, like the East,
must have been overrun by Moham
medanism, and sunk in irremediable
degradation, through the pernicious
institutions that have everywhere ac
companied it, if, in that great crisis of
the world, the Roman Church had not
roused the nations to a united and
prodigious effort, commensurate with
the danger.''

WANT NUNS FOR MONTANA
DISTRICT.
Work in Montana Hampered by Lack
of Teaching Community.
A pastor of a mission territory in
Eastern Montana says that the work
of the Church is greatly hampered by
the lack of a teaching community in
his missions.
"We have quite a. few Catholic fam
ilies in the eastern part of this state,"
said Father Mauhussier, "but they are
fallen away Catholics, or they are too
poor to help toward building up the
Church in this country. What we need
chiefly is a Catholic school. Our near
est school is fifty miles away. It seems
a great pity that my poor children
must grow up without religious in
struction, save the little I impart to
them at my visits. My heart aches for
them. If I had a school to send them
to I could send at least seventy chil
dren from my own mission headquar
ters, and how many more would we
not be able to get from surrounding
places?"
Father Mauhussier has addressed his
needs to the Catholic Church Exten
sion Society. The Society sent him a
gift of $500 for one of his missions.
The chapel made possible through this
gift will probably begin in July or the
early part pf August, and it is to be
called in honor of Saint Michael.
WITH THE INDIANS OF BRITISH
COLUMBIA.
Father LeJeune, O. M. I., whose
headquarters are at Kamloops, British
Columbia, sends an interesting letter
to the B. C. Western Catholic on his
Indian work. From its contents it
appears that the hard-working Oblate,
who is styled the Grand Old Man of
the Kamloops area, is as zealous in
his old age as he was when he first
took up the apostolic burden of mak
ing converts to the Faith. Around the
Kamloops reservations, writes the
Father, the Communions during Holy
Week numbered 1,300, surely a result
to be proud of. Quite a number of
Indians receive Holy Communion on
every opportunity, which is very edi
fying to the hardworking priest who,
in sunshine and storm, is at their serv
ice to teach them the way to Heaven.
Father LeJeune is pardonably proud
of his Indian people, and is sure
that he could produce about 600 daily
Communicants were they in a settled
parish. Recently, Father LeJeuue re-
turned from Head Lake. There the
Indians are not all faithful, a consid
erable proportion being somewhat in
different to their spiritual duties,
though fully 100 of them are regular
in complying with the laws of the
Church. Father LeJeune got to know
these Indians about two years ago, and
found that they had not been blessed
with a call from a priest for many
years. Under these circumstances it
cannot be wondered at that their faith
was weak, but, thanks to the earnest
Catholicity of the chief, and the
Father's untiring efforts, much good
work has been accomplished. The
old chief, however, was too good a
Catholic and too earnest for t'*.e wel
fare of his tribe to be popular with
the more godless section who suc
ceeded in overthrowing him and elect
ing another more in keeping with
their loose ideas. Dissensions still
continue, and the affairs of the reserve
are, in consequence, neglected to some
extent. Some Indians, says the
Father, will go to Confession, but re
fuse to go to Holy Communion on the
plea that they are not good enough.
To meet this difficulty there was but
the one way, and the Father refused
Absolution to those, who declined to
receive Holy Communion. This dras
tic course was successful in some
cases. The Indian is a fatalist. He
knows that if he dies in his state of
refusal to comply with the Church's
commands he will lose his soul, but,
when this is pointed out to him by the
priest, he retorts that he will make it
all right when he is about to die, and
from that illogical position he cannot
be moved.
Father LeJeune has asked the B. C.
Western Catholic to intimate that his
"Wawa," or Indian shorthand paper,
though discontinued since 1904, may
still be purchased, at least its old num
bers. These rare curios have been
classified by Father LeJeune.
A Child of the Saced Heart
What a pretty hamlet Greenleigh
was! It contained in all not more
than twenty houses, rusty looking old
buildings, with rickety fences and
large gardens, filled with trees and
flowers. Its situation was delightful.
It lay in a valley, on, each side of
which the mountains rose to a won
derful height—thick, woody moun
tains, abounding in musical pines, and
great stones, studded with gravels
How often I climbed upon those old
stones, and lay on their moss-covered
tops, for hours at a time, reading, or
idly dreaming, or looking up at the
blue summer sky, with its flitting
clouds, and listening to the dulcet
'notea of the wild birds. My favorite
stone had a small pine tree growing
from an aperture in its centre. Under
the waving boughs of that little tree,
I dreamed of the far distant city, of
its colleges, of my future. Often in
deed I slept there during the hot aft
ernoons of June and July, using my
arm for a pillow—"beauty naps" I
called those slumbers.
At the west end of the Greenleigh
ran a deep yellow creek, spanned by a
bridge made of two trees joined to
gether by thick pieces of oak. There
I loved to sit, and dream, looking
down into the yellow depths, my ears
drinking in the soft gurgling of the
water. Yes, Greenleigh was a pretty
little place and every one that ever
visited it once, came a second time.
However, there was no church in the
village. It contained about an equal
number of Catholics and Protestants,
those attended Mass at Riverview, a
town about three and a half miles dis
tant from Greenleigh these occasion
ally held services in the old school
house. The Catholics of Greenleigh
were good practical Catholics who
thought the walk to the Riverview
church but a pleasure. I see them
now, those simple people, dressed in
their best clothes, setting out on a
bright Sunday morning with their
sturdy-legged children to walk to Riv
erview.
On the way home from Mass the
husbands and wives chatted about the
sermon and the eloquence of Father
Dean, the parish priest of Riverview,
how pretty and clean the church was
and how well Miss Meed sang. The
boys ran races among the small bush
es that skirted the road and the girls
culled the flowers that grew in profu
.sion by the way. Oh, what would I
not give to live again one hour of
those dear, dead days, to be again a
round-faced, freckle-nosed urchin, run
ning along by my parents' side, as we
came from Mass on Sunday!
One summer a young seminarian
named Bernard Darrow, who was dis
tantly related to our family, came to
spend a few weeks with us at Green
leigh.
How well I remember him! He was
tall and straight as a young poplar
and had a face without a trace of color
in it—a calm, handsome face. His
eyes were large and black and full of
fire, yet there was something very soft
and winning in them his closely crop
ped hair was brown and would have
curled, had he allowed it. His every
feature is deeply engraven in my
heart but I remember best his smile
—there was so much kindnes3, so
much good will in it.
Mr. Darrow and I walked to River
view every morning to hear Mass. He
became very fond of me and I looked
up to him as a superior being. He
received Holy Communion three times
every week and very often I won
dered that he did not faint while walk
ing to church, he was so frail and del
icate and the distance so long.
His favorite devotion was that of
the Sacred Heart. On each of the
first Fridays—he spent only two hours
with us—when he and I were walking
home from Mass, after having break
fasted with the parish priest, he talked
of the excellency and the advantage of
devotion to the Sacred Heart. His
voice was low and very sweet, and he
never seemed "stuck for words," as
our boys used to say. I listened with
such attention that we were in Green
leigh before I thought we had been
walking a half hour. I have never
forgotten his little instructions they

deep into jay heart and will ptay

with me as long as my heart shall
beat.
On the morning of this second first
Friday of his stay, we were walking
home after we had finished our Com
munion thanksgiving. The sun's
bright rays were just gilding the east
ern woods the trees resounded with
the thrilling notes of birds that flitted
about among the boughs, shaking the
leaves and scattering the heavy morn
ing dew down on the grass. I felt sad
at heart on the morrow Jijr. Darrow
would leave us.
"You will think of me and pray for
me sometimes, when I am gone, won't
you, Andrew?" he said, smiling down
upon me, as we walked slowly along a
well beaten path through the woods.
I gulped down a great lump that
has risen in my throat perhaps I
should never see Mr. Darrow again.
"Oh, Mr. Darrow," I replied, "I shall
never forget you."
I was only fourteen then, I am fifty
now yet Mr. Darrow, as he looked that
morning, is still fresh in my memory.
"Mr. Darrow," I said after we had
walked on a few moments in silence,
for he seemed pensive that morning,
"you have told me comparatively very
little of the Sacred Heart this morn
ing."
"Yes, yes, Andrew," he answered
hurriedly, as one who suddenly wakes
from a dream "and I must not forget
to tell you of a conversion made
through the Sacred Heart. In the
years to come, you may have some one
dear to you who will neglect his soul
—some one whom you may have to
save by your prayers if so, think of
what I now tell you. Every soul is
very precious in God's eyes, and bless
ed is the man who recalls a soul from
the path of sin by his prayers, or good
works."
I was all attention.
"My Aunt Agnes 'Powers," he be
gan, "died nine years ago—God be
merciful to her! She was only twen
ty-three at her death. She was a
beauty, so far as face and form go.
Her hair—he always went into minute
detail, which enhanced the elegance of
his descriptions—was a dark brown,
with waves of golden light running
through it. She was very fond of her
hair, and was fond of thrusting jew
elled pins and flowers into it. Her
eyes were blue, almost black, with
long, dark lashes that swept her
cheeks. Her eyebrows were black and
heavy, and stood out in pleasing con
trast to her marble forehead. Her
scowls—which indeed were rare—
were quite repelling, her eyes being so
dark.
"Her oval face had so much color
in 4t, not too much, but quite enough.
What a pretty smile she had! It lit
up her whole face and gave a merry,
wicked little twinkle to her eyes. She
was small and slightly built and had a
dignified air that made her look much
taller. But you've had enough of my
description, Andrew," with a smile.
"She was English and resided with
her parents in 'Merrie Old England.'
They were honest people and were
proud of their fair Agnes. She and
my mother were the only children
that came to bless the Powers' home.
Agnes, however, often pained the fond
hearts of her parents by the neglect
of her religious Jutics. She went to
Mass on Sundays and holy days of
obligation, but her thoughts were so
filled with fashions, balls and the the
atres, whither some of her friends
took her, that she hadn't time to think
much of the Sacraments. Vainly did
Grandfather Powers remonstrate with
his vivacious daughter, he threatened,
he scolded, but all ,tfl no avail. Her
teens passed thus.
"It was in onfe of the parks that she
first met Jules Ilosfeld. How they be
came acquainted, I cannot tell. He fell
in love with Agnes. Her parents kne#
nothing of her infatuation for Mr.
Hosfeld until he came to ask her hand
in marriage. He was a widower, and
was much older than Agnes. His wife
had died only a short time before. He
was a man of no religion, though I
dare say he believed in God, in a kind
of way. Mr. Powers, like a good Cath
olic parent, refused Mr. Hosfeld the
hand of his daughter how could the
old man give away his treasure, his
little Agnes, to a stranger, and a
stranger who was not a Catholic!
With a dark frown, Hosfeld departed
from the Powers' residence, stemming
the door behind him.
"Then ensued a stormy scene be
tween Mr. Powers and Agnes. She
said she was determined to marry Mr.
Hosfeld, for she loved him.
'Why should I not become his
wife?' she remonstrated 'he loves me,
he is wealthy, and can make me a
lady.'
'but Agnes, near, what of ydur
soul? H? is not a Catholic!'
'Pshaw! Religion will not lceep
me. It's all right for priests or nuns,
but it's not the thing for lay-people.'
"Mr. Powers pleaded with his obdu
rate daughter until she flew into a
rage, and said she sould marry Mr.
Hosfeld, come what might. Her fa
ther, in his anger, struck her in the
face and she, bursting into tears, le(t
the roogi,
"Two days later the papers con
tained an account of the elopement of
Mr. Hosfeld and Miss Powers.
"The Powers home was quite deso
late. Mrs. Powers sat at the window
that evening, looking blankly out at
the gathering twilight, with the Imita
tion of Christ open upon her knees.
Grief was written in every lineament
of her patient face. Mr. Powers, with
a hard, angry look on his countenance,
reclined in a rocker and gazed from
time to time at his wife's sad face.
"The Hosfeld's went to live in Mr.
Hosfeld's grand residence in London.
Agnes did not send a line home she
seemed to forget that she had parents.
"We read of her entrance into soci
ety and of the sensation she created.
She was presented to the queen, who,
the newspapers said, was quite charm
ed with 'the beautiful Mrs. Hosfeld.'
"A year after her marriage, Mrs
Hosfeld came to visit her parents. At
that time we, too, lived in England.
What a magnificent woman she was!
how beautiful! During her stay,
which was quite short, she became
quite fond of me and my boyish heart
went out to my lovely aunt. She nev
er spoke ol Iter parents or «f the

old home she had ungratefully left.
She won a promise from my parents
that I would visit her. As she kissed
me good-bye I thought with a pang of
her death. She was so fragile, so like
a delicate, graceful flower that blooms
but for a day, so white, that I felt
her reign, though brilliant, must be
short. Her face never left me after
that I beheld her everywhere. In my
forest rambles, when I knelt to drink
at some mountain spring, I saw the
blue eyes of Aunt Agnes, with a look
of pleading in their depths, staring
into mine from the crystal water in
the whispering of the morning breezes,
in the howlings of the wind at night, I
heard her voice calling to me. for as
sistance. I prayed often for her to the
Sacred Heart.
"One day we read in the newspapers
that 'the beautiful Mrs. Hosfeld* had
retired from society, and that she and
her husband had gone to live quietly
in the country. The papers hinted
that Mr. Hosfeld, not caring for the
fashionable world, had persuaded his
wife to leave it.
"Next day we received a letter from
Aunt Agnes, in which she said that
her health was weakened she begged
me to pay her my promised visit, as
she longed to see my 'dear, boyish
face.' I went. I was about your age
then, Andrew, and already I felt the
'still small voice' of my vocation.
"What a grand home was that of
the Hosfelds! A castle-like old build
ing, one end of which was covered
with ivy. A wide portico with two or
three rustic seats and palms and flow
ers ran along the front of the house.
Gravelled walks wound their way like
serpents through the velvety grounds.
Here was an aquarium filled with tiny
gold fish, that sported about in the
sparkling waters there a cool foun
tain, a cupid, cast its diamond drops
about the grass upon the modest heads
of violets and the broad heads of pan
sies. I had time to see no more, for
my coach was already at the portal.
Aunt had been expecting me, as I had
sent her a letter telling when I would
set out. In another minute I was
clasped in her arms. She looked lovli
er than ever, but was thinner than
when I saw her last. I was then pre
sented to her husband—a tall, dark,
handsome man, with pointed beard and
sharp, kindly grey eyes. I liked him
at first sight, though at the time I
thought there was something strange
about him.
"A week flew away very quickly
my aunt and uncle were kindness it
