Iliinoi* Capital. Thr centenary celebration of the State ot* Illinois opened at Kaskaskia last week. Kas kaskia, the one time first capital, is now but a hamlet of 200 people. The Bishop of Belleville and a number of priest? attended the centennial open ing.

Peter Binko, pastor of St. Anthony (Polish) Church at Cumbola, Pa., was overturned in an automobile, while at the head of a funeral at Minersville, recently. Two men with the priest were imprisoned with him under the automobile. The priest was rescued with a broken arm and critical internal injuries. $4,500 Thrift Stamps.—Thomas Reid, a twelve-year old pupil in the Seventh urade of St. Xavier's School, Cincin nati, Ohio, has won the distinction of a generalship in the Army of Ohio School Sammies. This boy found time from his studies and the work which lie is required to perform at home to -ell more than $4,500 in Thrift Stamps. Cardinal Takes Rest—Cardinal Far ley has settled down for a summer of iuiet work and much needed rest at Mamaroneck, L. I. His health is much improved. On Independence Day, he motored over to Ossining to spend the day at Maryknoll, the American Mis sion Seminary which is within the limits of the Archdiocese of New York and in which Cardinal Farley has, Horn the time of its foundation, a few years ago, taken very special interest. Noted Jesuit-—The late Father fieorge de la Motte, S.

Jiorn of a prominent English-French family, he studied at the Eudists' Col lege in France, and became a Jesuit ill 1878. The Sorbonne, in Paris, con ferred upon him the degree of Mas ter of Arts, and at Woodstock Col ge, Md., he defended brilliantly and publicly theses in Philosophy and Theology. Orphans Buy Pagan Baby.—When orphans help orphans, Heaven must, indeed, rejoice. This is what two little girls in Maryland have done. One is only 7 years old and about to make her First Communion the other is a few years older. Their names are Ruth Roberts and Lottie Higs, and by hard labor and strict economy they have accumulated $5.83. Instead of spending this sum on goodies or amusements, they have forwarded it to the Society for the Propagation of the Faith they wish to purchase a baby heathen girl who will receive in baptism the name of Theresa Martin. Three Bishops Attend.—Impressive ceremonies marked the dedication of ihe Knights of Columbus "hut" adja cent to the motor mechanics training field, in North Kansas City, Wednes day morning. The celebration was participated in by State officials of the Knights of Columbus and by cler gy from points in both Missouri and Kansas. Bishop Maurice F. Burke of St. Joseph, blessed the "hut." The ded icatory sermon was preached by Bishop Thomas F. Lillis of Kansas City. Bish op John Ward and a number of priests from Leavenworth and Kansas City also took part in the ceremonies. A Mormon Elder.—Father McQuaide, the popular chaplain of a well-known San Francisco regiment, was well oc cupied while waiting a few days at Camp Mills, L. I., before embarking for France. Other regiments were without Catholic chaplains and many of their young men, learning of Fr. McQuaide's presence, visited him. At any and all hours they dropped in, al most invariably for confession. One day after hearing many, Fr. McQuaide was conscious of the presence of an other waiting soldier and in his char acteristic way he said,—"Now, kneel right here and bless yourself, my boy." The soldier looked up meekly and said, "I don't know how. I am an Elder in the Mormon Church." fCHlN IH[5iANDpIMRl4pSJ 4 Passing of St. Anthony.—The 687th anniversary of the passing of St. An thony of Padua from this earth to heaven was fittingly celebrated at'Mt. St. Sepulchre, Washington, D. C., with all the solemnity that usually attends this feast at. the Commissariat. Be ginning at F: 15 and continuing until o'clock there were well attended Masses every half hour. At 10 A. M. Right Rev. Bishop Shahan, preceded by a number of visiting and Francis can clergy, went to St. Anthony s i fi i.». Decorated for Bravery.—Karl Kin dleberger, a graduate of the George town Law School in 1914, and who went over last year as an ambulance driver in the American Expeditionary Forces, was decorated for bravery along with the other members of his section, for carrying wounded men under fire in the last great drive on the Western front. shrine, where he blessed the lilies. A solemn procession was then formed, during which the choir chanted the responsory of St. Anthony, Si quaeris miracula. Coming to the main altar, the bishop went to the throne where he vested in cope and mitre to assist at the Solemn High Mass, celebrated by Very Rev. George Dougherty, Vice Rector of the Catholic University. For Colored Missions.—The Epi phany Apostolic College, Walbrook, Baltimore, Md., is conducted, by the Fathers of St. Joseph's Society of the Sacred Heart for Colored Missions. The purpose of the College is toitaain young men for missionary worwW'-re is a great field in our own land and at our own doors. Young men between fifteen and eighteen years of age who are well instructed and well recom mended, and of a pious and docile dis position, are generally accepted if they are sincerely desirous of becom ing missionary priests and members of St. Joseph's Society. The age limit may be set aside in the case of candi dates not within the limits, but who are otherwise desirable. For informa tion write at once to Rev. Joseph P. Hanley, rector, Epiphany Apostolic College, Wral brook, Baltimore. OLD WORLD NEWS Archbishop Released.—Mgr. Count Szeptycki, Archbishop of Lemberg, has regained his freedom and health, and is strenuously caring for the Catholics of the Ukraine. Mother Superior Condemned.—War reports say that Madame Helen de Burlet, Superior of the Religious of the Sacred Heart, at Berchems, Bel gium, has been condemned to two and a half years penal servitude in an un known prison. Destroy Cathedral.—The French city of Bethune, just behind the Flan ders battle front, has been set on fire by incendiary shells from German ar tillery and is in flames, said a news agency dispatch from the front. The famous Bethune Cathedral is in ruins. Cathedral Struck.—Sandbags pro tecting the statuary group of Christ and the Apostles in one of the door ways of the Cathedral of Paris have been torn to shreds, and the head of St. Peter's statue destroyed by falling bombs. The figure of Christ, at the extreme left of the group, was un damaged, and part of the debris, how ever, falling and remaining on the right arm. Recent Converts.—Rev. W. A. P. Wayte, late Anglican Vicar of Dun stall, England, has been received into the Church. Mr. Wayte has been the incumbent of Dunstall for three years. The Rev. Charles Francis Trus tel, M. A., late Vicar of Padstow, Cornwall, was received into the Church on March 7th at the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Farm Street, London, by Father Francis Dobson. Congregation of Rites.—Among the causes considered by the Sacred Con greation of Rites at its recent meet ing were those of the Servants of God, Sister Anna UDe Angelis, professed nun of the Order of St. Dominic, and Anna Maria Lapini, Foundress of the Institute of the Poor Daughters of the Sacred' Stigmata. It may be added that the rumor as to a date having been fixed for the ceremony of Beati fication of the Venerable Oliver Plunk et, Martyr, has no foundation. It may be that Blessed Margaret Mary Ala coque and Blessed Gabriel of the Ad dolorata will be canonized and the Venerable Oliver Plunket beatified on the same day. Irish Archbishop.—We care very lit tle for these attacks so long as we are conscious that we have acted rightly towards our country, says Archbishop Harty. For us the love of our own people far outweighs the abuse lav ished on us by people whose names have long been linked with injustice to Ireland. We trust that the world's verdict will justly appraise the action of the bishops, priests and people of Ireland in this new chapter which has been added to the story of our race. We are confident that history will see in our united efforts the true interpre tation of the rights of nations, small and great, to determine their own des tinies. Catholicism in Scotland.—In 200 years the Scottish Catholic population has grown from 14,000 to 548,000. Forty years ago there were 242 priests, with 235 churches or chapels, 25 con vents and institutions and 165 schools but now there are 576 priests, with 432 churches or chapels or stations and 102 convents or institutions. There are nine orders 'of priests and broth ers carrying on their own special work, and there are fifteen orders of nuns at work. And if Glasgow be brought into the picture of Catholic progress once more, it is only to men tion that of the 548,000 Catholics in Scotland over 400,000 come under the jurisdiction of the successor of St. Mungo. Scotland has not yet been won back in its entirety to its old al legiance to Rome, but to some who can still recall struggles of even fifty or sixty years ago, the record disclos ed should be encouraging. wr •A. I WEDDING RINCS GOLD AND SILVERSMITH £8 East Sixth Street Death of Heroic Priest.—In the Lon don Tablet, a letter is published from Staff Captain Bernard J. Smith, sta tioned in Palestine. Captain Smith writes: "We had a little scrap yes terday in which we were successful. Such a scrap is not worth while for the papers to mention nowadays, but in the Boer war it would have filled the front page of the Daily Mail. One of our R. C. padres, a Father Kava nagh, was killed. He was actually pronouncing absolution over a man and was just saying 'Amen,' when he stopped one with his head and never recovered consciousness. He died dur ing the night. It was his Mass I at tended last Sunday. He was a good man. R. C. padres are thought well of out here. People cannot under stand why they go into the front line. A splendid death, wasn't it?" Fighting Priest.—Father Borde d'Ar rere, "fighting priest," is being sent to the United States by the French government to aid in the plan to bring the two republics into closer intimacy and understanding. Father d'Arrere, who at the start of the world struggle gave up his pastorate to become an ordinary soldier, wears upon his breast the ribbons of the Legion of Honor, the Croix de Guerre and the Coura giere, all given for heroic services as I soldier and as priest on the fields of battle. In the early part of the war he served as a poilu. He was at Ver dun, the Somme, the Marne. He gained recognition and honors, and the French government then made him a chaplain in the black troope from its African territory. This posi tion he has held for the last two years, during which time he has been twice seriously wounded. English Bigots Protest.—With re gard to the Prince of Wales' visit to the Pope, British Protestants are stil! growling. The Church Association passed a resolution the other day con demning the government for permit ting the prince's visit! They declared all loyal subjects of the king deplore the undeserved deference thus shown to one whose authority is repudiated by the vast majority of the British people and "who is known to be in close fellowship with the enemy," and they conclude that "the animosity towards our country and her allies has become still more evident by the recent action of the Roman Church authorities in endeavoring to prevent recruiting in Ireland, Canada, Austra lia and New Zealand." But of course in a country which has lost nearly all religion but the true faith—and where that is practiced only by a few—no one takes any notice of the Church Association.
