6 At •JBC SOUTHERN EDITOR'S VIEWS. Ijfc is usual for us to read of the biff otry extant in the Southern part of this Republic. It is a pleasure there lore to reprint the following editorial which appeared- some time ago in .the "The State/' published at Columbia, South Carolina: ^Charles Carroll, of Carroll ton, was llifc wealthiest, private citizen of his time in the United States, signer of Thomas Jefferson's 'Declaration of In dependence,' member of the first con gress of the United States, one of the greatest of the great 'fathers of the republic'—and the most influential Ro man Catholic laymen in the country. There were great Methodists,* Episco palians, Congrcgationalists, Baptists, Presbyterians, Lutherans and non-re ligious statesmen like Jefferson, who co-operated with Chas. Carroll in founding this repuhlic of ours and in making religious toleration its corner stone. "Roman Catholic Belgium lies pros trate under the iron heel of a Luther an-Catholic army, one in every three subjects of the fjerman empire being Catholic. Catholic Austria is fighting shoulder to shoulder with Lutheran Germany and Protestant-England and Catholic France are resisting them. All this was going on when poor old Pius X., ihe, peasant (raised to the highest dignity and power in the Church, and sweet, lovable Christian man), was dying of a broken heart, and now Benedict XV. stretches forth his hand in vain to bid Catholics throughout Europe at one another's throats to be at peace. "One thing let us humbly say: You and those who think with you are in no danger from the Roman Catholics, but, in this materialistic and critical i i FATHER CAIN'S NEEDS. However I am "paddling my own canoe" across rapids, and trying to get help to support the mission and school. I must support some ten teachers. More in fact are wanted. want $120 per year per teacher and I am pleading for persons who •will undertake the support of one teacher permanently. Maybe through yoiir columns I might find some gener ous supporters. Jfany thanks for your kindness. I hope to have the favour of hearing from you again.

If contained cheque No. 1149 on National Bank, New York City, for sum of $2". i v I canmotr*tefl ycPU whftt a-toni-c it was to receive this gift. Ever since the opening of the war I have been -sounding the 'depths of debt and dis couragement, and been looking for ward to the day of "shutting up the premises." This mission cannot live without exterior support. The Fili pino has not learned the lesson of supporting his parish. He was brought. up under the Spanish Government. This Government pro vided him with churches and schools and education, lie hasn't got accus tomed to having to provide these all at once for himself. Besides the American Government here provides thdfpublic school instruction, but gives nothing to the parochial schools. This is a Catholic country, but the people's faith is not given an item of consider ation, and the country is run as if the people were a set of infidels. Here in my mission there is a public school supported and kept open by the Gov ernment, against the repeated wish of the people. It collects on an average of twenty, children. It stands on the opposite side of the road to the parish school which has over five hundred children, and still I never get a cent for the support of the school. One third of the income of the town is set apart for education, and I can't get a cent of it to educate the children of*the parents who have paid the mciney for education, although all their children, except those twenty, come to the parish school. This money is sent to other towns to sup port. public schools there, and I have to labour in poverty and want to keep the school open. It's a crying injus tice. At home in England we wiped that blot off our flag. Yours sincerely in Christ WALTER CAIN. MADURA MISSION. fhe Madura mission is confided to tta* sons of St. Ignatius. Mgr. A. Fais anflier, Bishop of Trichinopoly, sends us-an elaborate report of the general woVk accomplished during the year ending July 1, 1914. He adds in a letter that we can form an idea of the immensity of the task undertaken by. the missionaries .when we know that there are 255,000 Christians to care for, and 6.000.000 pagans to win to the true religion. Several com munities of nuns assist the priests in thij evangelization of the women and the children. As now constituted, the Madura mis sion includes three districts and is &b6ut 16,494 miles square. There are #Tef ItfteeBtttpusaitf pupils in the U/T+ LTIQ uidsD and irreverent age all your churches are in danger and you and all of us who call ourselves Christians need the elbow touch of one another, no more inquiring of the creed and dogmas of our neighbor than the sorely pressed Prussian and Lutheran emperor can afford to suspect a Bavarian regiment, of betraying his cause to the Italian servant of God, who ia_ Bishop of Rome. "Why do the petrple imagine & vain thing?" THE PAPAL OFFICE. The Southern Cross thus quotes a non-Catholic writer on the Papal Of fice: "To be the infallible spiritual guide of a multitude of people—perhaps a sixth of the population of the world to derive from the Chief of Apostles, through 25 intermediaries, a primacy or honor and authority among Chris tian folk to be seated in this inef fable honor in the city of Rome, im perial and eternal to operate a gov erning machinery of patriarchs, met ropolitans, archbishops, bishops, priests, and innumerable orders of monks, friars and nuns—a machinery which in delicacy and efficiency is the. wonder of the world to have interests and duties in connection with every nation in both hemispheres to watch all things political and ecclesiastical, on behalf of an organization which has its tendrils in every cranny and crevice of the social structure of all Europe and America and many parts of Asia and Africa—what position has earth to show which can compare with this for eminence of standpoint, breadth of view, and reach of power?" 5-ON FIELDS various schools and colleges. Four orphan asylums receive homeless children. Six workshops and indus trial schools teach useful trades. Hos pitals and asylums perform their share of good work. In short the Madura mission is a vast enterprise needing plenty of resources and plenty of workers. It has been very suc cessful during the past few years, but like alf the missions, it is now threat eiled by the general disaster. One way of caring for some of the orphans daring the hard times "would be to place them in good families willing to care for or adopt the little un fortunates. Bishop Faisandier is ser iously thinking of this plan for his orphans, but does not know how to sustain the other establishments. FATHER BERNARD SECURES SIS TERS FOR ORPHANAGE! The benefactors and friends of Father Joseph Bernard, S. J., will be glad to hear that the orphanage in the Far North, which necessity compelled him to start, is to secure the Ladies Missionaries from Washington to care for the children. It is a great sacrifice for that new community to deprive itself of two good members—the number selected for the Alaskan mission—but the com munity is sustained by a spirit of sac rifice. It believes that the more it gives the more it receives, and the superior and founder of the Ladies Missionaries says that he considers it a great honor for the convent to an swer the call for workers in such a field of labor, for it is certainly for the honor and glory of God. The work of Rev. Joseph Bernard has long been helped and encouraged through the benefactors and friends of the Catholic Church Extension So ciety, who seem ever ready to befriend the missionary working in those eter nal fields of snow and ice. The sisters are to start for the far Northern mission as soon as the sea son will allow. For a long time Father Bernard has applied for helpers, and it seems has applied to many places in vain. Final ly he started the school with an old Eskimo woman as the matron until the Sisters could be secured. "It is pretty close quarters," Father Bernard wrote to the Catholic Church Extension Society, "but then that makes it warmer for them." The Society has sent Father Ber nard help again and again, and would gladly send him vasts sums if it had them at its command. Any donations forwarded to the offices of the Catholic Church Extension Society, McCormick Building, Chicago, will be gladly for warded to him. A NORTHWESTERN BISHOP. Where the flourishing cities of the Northwest now hold their tens of thousands of people once stood Indian villages and the mission chapels of the Black Robe. Every inch of terri tory in that part of Canada, that is now perhaps the most prosperous of the Dominion, has been evangelized by the splendid Oblates. They have had men whose names are bound up with the history of the country. For instance, Bishop Grandin, whose mis sionary tours are filled with romance of the most touching kind, was one of the pioneers, whose example is be ing followed by his brethren in the yet unsettled lands to the north. Here is an extract from his diary which could have been written twenty tiroes of present day priests "Shortly after his return from the interrupted northern journey he left Father Faraud at Lake Athabaska and set out. for lie la Crosse. lie started in an old canoe made of birch bark over a frail frame work. He was ac companied by two Indians, one of whom was half blind and the other only fifteen years old. lie took with him, for himself and his companions, some potatoes and a small quantity of pounded fish, a sort of home-made pemmican, prepared by one of the Brothers. The journey lasted three weeks and it was a real via crucis for Father Grandin. His so-called guides did not know the route and they lost their way several times. The canoe leaked and the rain fell pitilessly. Here and there a hidden rock pieiwd the canoe, which had to bo stitched and gummed in such a manner as Is possible in the wilderness. At night they had to camp out, on the rain soaked prairie. Very -soon Father Grandin was shivering with fever and his legs were almost paralyzed. At the portages, whilst the Indians car ried the canoe n their shoulders, he could only drag himself along leaning heavily on an oar. At the great port age his legs refused to carry him further. He had to wait by himself for three days, until the Indians brought a horse to take him to the nearest station, which ho reached quite worn out and scarcely a.ble to stand. Perhaps God was preparing him for what was coming, the miter, which is very often rough on the Bead." BROOKLYN PRIEST'S TION. The world is full of the charity that passeth all understanding, writes Shiela Mahon. It is the divine gift bestowed on each and everyone of us by our Lord Himself. It is the sign of predestination this spirit of charity. The people who practice charity, in thought, in word and in deed are the angels of humanity. They see in every soul the divine image and likeness regardless of color or nation ality. They thirst to give of their means to those less fortunate—those deprived of spiritual consolation or in poverty or in distress. They are never so happy as in obeying the di vine command, "Love thy neighbor as thyself." Here is a touching little incident of this charitable spirit over which the angels in Heaven must rejoice. Down at Virginia Beach if the colored people want to hear Mass on Sunday they have to travel at least twenty-nine miles to the nearest church. A Brooklyn priest going on his vacation last summer hearing of this thought he would seek health and do a spiritual work of mercy by spending his vacation there and say ing Mass every day to benefit the people. This priest was not a young man by any means. He had been over forty years in the ministry and was in delicate health, but fired with the charity that passeth all under standing he traveled from Brooklyn to Virginia, and said Mass every morning and did other kind acts, but not for publication. Every one re members what a terrible summer It was last year, the weather depressing and hot. At Virginia Beach even the sea was hot so that not even the comfort of a cold plunge was avail able and worse than all, the air was full of malaria. At the end ot a month the priest returned to Brooklyn broken in health and ill with malaria. But it did not daunt his missionary spirit—it only served to strengthen it. He was so sorry for the poor colored people of the South that he forgot his own ills and came back full of ideas to help them as far as he could. It grieves him greatly that at that particular time he had no money to do it. One can imagine his prayers to the Shepherd of Souls for succor. An answer came when least expected. A few months later his congregation presented him with a purse as a small token of esteem and love for his twenty-five years of pastorship among them. The first thing he did with the money was to send five hundred dollars as a founda tion to build a church at Virginia Beach, and I believe if he had money enough he would build the church himself. That is the kind of charity that passeth all understanding and that is the kind of work that the Right Reverend John E. Burke, Director General of Catholic egr Missins, is doing all the time. The Board of Misions for colored people was estate lished by the Hierarchy, to help poor missions to build schools, to pay teachers' salaries. If we all were ani mated with spirit, of this Brooklyn priest much more might be accomplish ed and the great work of the con version of the Negro in America be an accomplished fact. How few of us would give up a well-earned vaca tion to help our colored brethren. OUlf LADY'S SANCTUARIES •M AFRICA THE CATHOLIC BULLETIN, MARCH VACA- IN Mgr. Combes, primate of Africa, celebrated the sixtieth anniversary of the proclamation of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception last December, by laying the corner-stone of a new sanctuary to the Blessed Virgin.". The edifice will crown the hill that rises above Tunis, and is one of a chain that adorns the beautiful moun tain peaks of North Africa—Our Lady of Africa at Algiers, Our Lady of Sal vation at Oran, the basilica at Hip pone, the Church at Carthage. It was in 1866 that Mgr. Pavy placed the cross upon the basilica that domi nates "Algiers, The White." This is the most beautiful memorial to Mary in Africa. Its bells ring out across the immefise stretch of blue waters I that lie below, and seetn to answer those of the mother country. The sanctuary of Our Lady of,Tunis) will add its harmonies to the great paean ever rising in Africa to the glory of Go4*g*iuif immaculate v.- I On a rathfcr dismal October even ing an elderly man and a pretty fair haired girl sat in an old-world draw ing-room in a Dublin suburb., The girl was absently turning over the leaves of a magazine, when her companion turned in the chair in which he had lounged half-asleep, and' suddenly opened his eyes. "Like a good child, stop rustling those leaves," he said, irritably. "It gets on my nerves." "Oh, I'm sorry, Uncle Bernard," his niece answered, penitently, "I didn't notice what I was doing. You said today that yon wanted mo to read that article on Persian faience when 1 should find it. Now, I'd just, got it, and you closed yoitr eyes. I thought you were fast asleep." "Never mind the faience, Mollie it would interest be too much, hnd I went badly to rest awhile but if you will read something else—not poetry —very slowly, and in rather low tones, I'll try to sleep for half an hour or so." Settling a cushion at his shoulders, he leant back comfortably, and the girl turned to a table heaped with books, and took up a little volume bound in blue and silver. "This ought do," she said, holding the book so that he could see* "Amiel always makes me sleepy." "Ah, yes," he replied,' in a satisfied sleepy voice, "open it anywhere, Mol lie, and start slowly and softly, please." "The weather is rainjr," Molly began, opening the book in tlie middle, "the whole atmosphere grey: it is a time favourable to thought and meditation. I have a liking for such days as these they revive one's converse with one's self, and make it possible to live the inner life. They are quiet and peace ful, like a song in a minor key. Our very sensations turn to reverie. It is a strange state of mind it is like— A prolonged and intense snore from her uncle's chair brought Mollie's reading to a full stop, and,.closing the book without ceremony on Amiel's wet-day reflections, she stole from the room on tip-toe. In the hail she linger ed a minute or two looking through the glass doors upon the rain-swept gardens, then, with a glance at the clock, ran lightly up the stairs. "Six o'clock!" she said to herself, "and Hick will be here at seven. I must make myself nice." In a quarter of an hour she had made good her word by taking down her hair and re-arranging it, and cbangingi fi^om a dark gown into a pretty pale blue ohe. She had barely finished her toilet when the gate rat tled suddenly, and, looking from the window, she waved hef hand, saying to herself, surprisedly "Dick!—^and nearly an hour before hand!" Then she ran frtfm the room to meet her visitor at' th$ door. V I fr !. "161 Biackho'use Road, "Maybury Heath, Survey. *Tear Sir: "Xo doubt, yonf will wonder how I became acquainted with your name and address, and,-to set your mind at rest, I may tell you same was given to me in strict, confidence by a sub scriber of mine who has turned a hun dred pounds into live hundred, under my advice, and who lives in your neighborhood. "As an introduction, I purpose giv ing you a tip for the Barberry Handi cap. Don't be stalled off by any con sideration, but back 'La Mascotte* to win you a splendid stake, and remit me a present after the result. She has been tried a flyer, and all con nected are well on and very confident. The present price is very good, but will be a point or two higher on the day. I hear there is a pot of money coming. Take my advice, stake your all on 'La Mascotte,' and you will have cattse to congratulate yourself. '"YoUrs faithfully, "CHARLES BAXTER." There was an intimate connection between the foregoing letter of ten days earlier, and the telegram which, during the past two hours had reposed in the inner pocket of Dick Brennan's best grey suit, and the feeling of gloom that was almost despair, and of shame that made him grind his teeth in savage Self-epntempt was the direct result of both. Usually level headed, he had, in a mad moment, allowed the advertising letter of a wily betting-agent to delude him into putting all his available cash, two hun dred pounds, on a horse—and he had lost. The detestable scrap bf pink paper in his pocket had been the death war rant of soaring hopes, and the house of dreams which he had lately built had fallen about him as he read the brief message "Yvonne—First. Red Eagle—Second. Blue Bottle—Third. "BAXTER." La Mascotte was nowhere, and he was ruined. Now he was on his way to the home of the girl he hid hoped to marry, to ask her to forget and forgive him, FOR A N U S I A I tTD II u 20, 1915. TMF* £ar he could not -ask._h«r—waii-for a Ox liiA man with no prospects There had not been an actual en gagement, but they had known each other always, and each knew the heart of the other and was satisfied. He was ^endeavouring to convince him self that he was glad there was no formal engagement—for her sake—l when he found himself at her uncle's gate, which he opened, and walked up the path to the house. As always, lie looked up to the window over the porch, and was just in time to see a hand wave and a laughing face van ish beyond the white elirtaina. In another second she stood before him in the door, a radiant vision. 'You must have'liews," she cHed, fugging liis wet coat sleeve, and drag ging him into the hall, "or you wouldn't have conve so* early, so off —uncle's asleep in the drawing-room with that, wet coat and into the study -r-and tell it to me. I've' been read ing a bit of Amiel for Urtcle, aijd I think I've the blues from it.'* "You don't look- it," he said/de spite liis trouble, for an instant fol lowing her mood, "except your dress and the ribbon in your hair." "Sit there," she said, pushing him into the big easy chair close to the bright fire, "and tell me why you came so early—it's news of some kind, isn't it, Dick?" "I should think so," he said, with such bitter emphasis that the girl sur veyed him in astonishment. "It's news, and no mistake. I've been an idiot, and worse—I've put two hundred pounds on a confounded horse—excuse me, Mollie—and lost it." "Goodness! I thought it was some thing terrible," cried Mollie in relieved tones. "Since it's only money, there's no harm done that I can see. Of course, I can't imagine how you did such a silly thing as to put money on a horsc-^ydtt"ro ntot i hit reckless u s u a y He shook '"Ms tifead in gloomy sil ence*. while' his hand wandered to liis inher pocket unconsciously, and partly withdrew Mr. Baxter's letter, for which Mollie expectantly held out her hand. Seeing this, Dick hurriedly thrust it out of sight with a guilty air. He did not want her to see what a miser ably open piece of impudent roguery had misled and ruined him. "I thought you wanted me to look at that letter," she said, reddening. "Of course I dont want to see it un less you expressly wish it." "Oh, that's nothing," he said men daciously, "a receipted tailor's bill I got as I was leaving my digs." But as his insincerity was very evi dent, she made no answer. Then he went on desperately: "MOllie, this loss makes a terrible difference to us. YOIL see, I've only got my second year, and I shall not be able to get my third. Fees and everything went with that two hun dred. But what I mind really is los ing you. At this moment I am a pau per, with no prospects whatever try to forgive me and forget me as fast as you can."- He rose then, and held dut his hand. "There's no use in saying any more,' he said. "I expect I'll get off to Canada within the week if I can borrow the money, so good-bye, Mollie." She lifted lifeless eyes to him, and gave him her hand. "Good-bye," she said, frozenly, and the next minute he had gone. She flung herself on Ker knees be .side the big chair in which he had been seated, and, leaning her fore head upon its arm, wept bitter tears while above the rain splashing on the window panes she seemed to hear over and over the echo of Dick's sodden good-bye. III. COLLEGE OF ST. TERESA J^ext morning Mollie woke from her troubled slumbers expecting somehow to see a letter from Dick awaiting her on the breakfast table, b'ut she was disappointed. A couple of circulars and a letter from a girl friend pay iqg her first call on Paris was all that met, her eye. "He has «iven me-njj-for good he will never come back," she told her self miserably. "And that wretched letter he had in his pocket has some thing to do with it all. Could it be that it was from anyone else whom he likes better than me now?' ', The thought, once sheltered, grew and flourished in her mind, and in few minutes she found herself furl ously jealous of she knew not whom and even wishing she could "show' Dick Brennan how little she minded his summary desertion of her. Her uncle's voice brought her back to everyday matters. "Manning has sent me a notice of the forthcoming sale of antique fumi ture at his auction rooms tomorrow,' Mr. Gavin said, looking up from his correspondence. "I think if it will be any kind of a decent day, I'll go down and have a look round. I might get one of those chairs we've been so Jong looking for, to complete the set. He mentions chairs very specially." "I don't think it will be fine again*— and only for your rheumatism, Uncle Bernard, and that you want to,go to that auction, I'd. say I didn't care," was Mollie's desperate reply.
