The Catholic Church in TIE United
States.
From the New York Herald.


The Roman correspondent of thu
Boston Pilot, writing on January II
sends the news that the Pope ha,
been pleased to raise the diocese o
Boston, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, ant
Santa Fe to the dignity of archdiocese
and their respective bishops to that o.
archbishops. The correspondent
adds: at is also said that the do.
cese of St. Paul, Minnesota, will be
divided into two"
The bishops who are thus elevated
are as follows:
The Right Rev. Joseph Williams,
D. d., the fourth bishop of Boston,
was consecrated on March IL, 1866.
The diocese of Boston was establish
ed in 1908. To all Catholics within
the diocese-priests and people-this
great honor to their reverend bishop
will bring heartfelt JOY. In the
United States there is no bishop more
beloved than he. He is eminently fit
ed by nature to guide wisely, to
judge dispassionately, and to take safe
charge of all the high interests which
belong to the hierarchy. Archbishop
Williams is native of Boston, and is
in his SD year.
The Right Rev James Friedrich
Wood, d. d., the fifth bishop of Phil
adelphia, was consecrated, cum jurS
gnccesSionis, April 26, 1857; succeed
ed January 5, 1860. The diocese of
Philadelphia was established in 1909.
Archbishop Wood is a native of Phil
adelphia, convert to the faith, and
is 60 years of age.
The Right Rev, J. NJ. Henri, D. DR..
the first bishop of Milwaukee, was
consecrated on March 10, 1914, in
which year the diocese of Milwaukee
was established.
The Right Rev. J. B. Lamy, D. D.,
first bishop of the diocese of Santa Fe
was consacratnd on Tnvarnbsr "a,
1850. The diocese is very large, com.
prising the territory of New Mexico,
with a population of about 10000
Mexicans, 5000 Pueblo Indians. and
1000 Americans.
AS an instance o. the rapid growth
Of the Catholic church of America we
may take the diocese OF New England.
In 1926 just fifty years ago-whsn
bishop Fenwick arrived Ia Boston.
there were: one priest in Massachu-
sets; one priest in New Hampshire:
one in Maine; 8 churches, of whici.
only one deserved higher title than
a chapel. And this was the Catholic
church in all New England.
Ten years later, in 1885, there were:
81 priests; % churches; 10000 Cath
olics.
La 1914 when Connecticut and
Rhode Island were made new do
cese, there were bu: so priests, 81
churches, 10000 Catholics in all New
England.
To day in New England there is one
archdiocese and five-probably soon
20 be six-dioceses. Every where
you find the Catholics with their
churches, schools, colleges and acad-
emies; with their hospitals, asylums,
and houses Of refuge. In New Eng
land to-day we number one arch
bishop, five bishops, AL priests, 432
churches and nearly a million Cath
olics.

- contemporary says: A news
paper and newspaper editor that
people don't talk about and sometimes
abuse are rather poor concerns. The
men and business that an editor feels
it is his duty to defend at risk of
making enemies of another class are
often the very first to show ingrati
tude. The editor that expects to re
ceive much charity or gratitude will
find out his mistake; bnt he should go
ahead and say and do what he con-
scientiously thinks right without re-
gard to smile or frown.

REVIVAL OF BUsINEss.-An impress
sion is prevalent, both at the east
and west, that the depression in
financial and commercial affairs has
touched bottom, and that with the
opening of spring will come very
marked revival in all branches OF
business. According to New York
papers, the retail merchants of that
city report brisk trade in all lines
of goods, and prospect of an UMPIRE
cedentedly large business for the
spring. Money is not specially close
they say, though more caution on
the part of customers in buying il
noticeable. Purchases partake less
of extravaganza than in former years.

supplying the real comforts of life

Correspondents must not expect us to ac-
knowledge letters containing remittances
unless some special reason exists for it.
Our correspondence is very heavy, and We
must abridge it as much as possible. And the
receipt of the paper will be sufficient to show
the money has been received, unless some
special reasons may be had for acknowledge
ment of remittance.
Parties ordering their paper stopped will
be careful to state in every case, the
name of The post office and State, and when
ordering it changed from one postOtice to an
other always give the names of both Offices
Careful attention to the above suggestions will
be of great benefit to us.

their thickest part and three feet wide,

and on the under mo upper surface

was thickly set with strong henry hooks
like those on the head Of teazle. These
leaves hanging thus limp and lifeless,
dead green in color, had in appearance
the massive strength Of oak fiber. The
apex Of the cone was a round concave
figure like smaller plate set within
