Joy but her piety only incensed the en-
peror, aud he tried to extort her confess
sions from the Saint. He threw St. John
into dungeon, but gained nothing then
inviting him to his palace, he promised him
riches if he would yield, and threatened
death if he refused. The Saint was silent
He was racked and burnt with torches ;
but no words, save jesus and Mary, fell
from his lips. At last set free, he spent
his time in preaching, and preparing for
the death he knew to be at hand. On
Ascension eve, May 16, Wenceslas, after
final and fruitless attempt to move his con-
stancy, ordered him to be cast into the
river, and that night the martyrs hands
and feet were bound, and he was thrown
from the bridge of Prague. AS he died
heavenly light shining on the water dis
covered the body, which was buried with
later Wenceslas was deposed by his own
subjects, and died an impenitent and mis-
erable death.
In 1913 the Cslvinist and Hnssite col
diers of the Protestant Elector Frederick
tried repeatedly to demnlish the shrine of
st. John at Prague. Each attempt was
miraculously frustrated and once the per-
sons engaged in the sacrilege, amongst
whom was an Euglisbmap, were killed on
the spot. In 1920 the imperial troops re-
covered the town by victory which was
ascribed to the Saints iutercessior, as be
was seen on the eve of the battle, radiant
with glory, guarding the cathedral. When
bis shrine was opened three hundred and
thirty years after his decease, the flesh had
and one member alone re.
NAMED incorrupt, the tongue thus still,
in silence, giving glory to God.

ST. BONIFACE, MARTYR.

Aglais, a Roman lady of rank and wealth,
and Boniface, her steward, led lives Of sin.
One day Aglais was stricken with remorse,
and calling Boniface, she said "You know
that we have lived forgetful of the account we
must render for our sins when we stand
before God. But have heard that who
ever is devout to the Saints will have his
part with them in the judgment" Then
che bade him set out for the East, where
the persecution of Diocletian was raging,
and procure for her relics of the martyrs,
hoping to place them in costly shrines, aud
to obtain grace through their prayers.
Boniface was filed with compunction
den he was to bring. He implored the
mercy of Christ, and throughout his whole
journey he abstained from flesh and wine
in honor of the Saints. At Tarsus he found
himself in the thick of the persecution. He
saw the confessors suspended head down
wards in the fire, torn with hooks, stretched
on the rack. He kissed their feet and
begged their intercesson, till these marks
|of reverence drew the eyes of the persecu-
tors upon him, and he was himself appre-
hended, tortured and beheaded. His body
was carried back to Aglais. She received
it as precious relic, and after thirteen
years of penance died in the odor OF sane
tity about the year 800.
When the executiOper poured boiling lead
into the mouth of St. Boniface, he asked
the other martyrs who we're suffering tor
Iture at his side "to pray for him, their ser
Hant.n They made answer: MAY
Lord Jesus Christ grant thee to finish thy
course quickly. May he write thy name
with the firstborn." With his last breath
he besought God to "give him rest in the
choir of the holy martyrs" Thus his con-
version and his perseverance were the fruit
of his devotion to the Saints, and when he
went to be with them forever an angel
appeared in vision to Aglais, and assured
her that God would pardon all her sins
through the intercession of the martyr
Boniface.

SIS. ABRAHAM AND MARY.

SIS. ABRAHAM AND MARY.
Abraham was rich nobemsn of Edessa.
At his parents desire he married, but es-
capped to cell near the city as soon as the
feast was over. Entreaties were of no avail.
He walled mp the cell door, leaving only q
small window through which he received his
food. There for fifty years he sang God's
praises and i'm plored mercy for himself and
for all men. The wealth which fell to him
on his parents' death he gave to the poor.
As many sought him for advice and conso-
lation, the Bishop of E iessa, in spite OF his
humility, ordained him priest. Soon after,
his brother died, leaving an only daughter,
Mary, to the Saints care. He placed her
in . cell near his own, and devoted him
self to training her in perfection. After
twenty years of innocence she fell and fled
in despair to q distant city, where she
drowned the voice of conscience in sin.
The Saint and his friend st. Ephrem pray
ed earnestly for her during two years.
Then he went disguised to seek the lost
sheep, and had the JOY of bringing her back
to the desert true penitsnt. She received
the gift of miracles, and her countenance
after death shone as the SUI. st. Abraham
died five years before her, about A. d. $50.
All Edessa came for his last blessing, and
to secure his relics. st. Ephrem, an eye
witness, tells us of many sick who were
healed by their touch.
st. Abraham was sent, soon after his
ordination, to an idolatrous city which had
hitherto been deaf to every messenger.
He, too, Jared like the rest. He was in
suited, beaten and three times banished,
but he returned each time with fresh zeal.
For three years he pleaded with God for
those souls, and in the cad prevailed.
Every citizen came to him for bsptiam.
After providing for their spiritual needs,
he went back to his cell more than ever
convinced OF the power of prayer.

Mr.. Morton reports from Lake Nyassa
that he encountered the now celebrated
Chief Mirambo, who not only did not at
tack and rob him, but expressed his friend
ly feelings for the English, and promised to
assist and help forward any white men COM
ing through the territory over which he has
control. This is very extensive, for Miriam
bo is becoming power in Central Africa
He has some five thousand we'll armed men
under his command, whom he rules with a
rod of iron. He would appear to entertain
an undying hatred for the Arabs, and plum
ders their caravans whenever he meets
them. He is extending his power in all di-
rections, appointing his deputies in all the
towns, villages and districts which he over
runs He is described as a man of noble
presence and of great personal bravery, al
ways leading his men in person, and exhib-
iting in his movements something of mill
tary talent. He fights under the American
flag which he captured from Mr.. Stanley.

| A STORY OF RETRrBUTIoN. The wreck of a
German-American steamer off the Scilly
Islands two years ago. recalled the dread
full calamity which befell the British fleet
under the command of the famous Sir
Cloudesly Shovel at the same place in the
reign of Queen Anne, but, says writer, we
do not remember ever to have seen the fol-
lowing remarkable anecdote, mentioned by
the Rev. George Woodley, clergyman resi-
dent Oh the islands, in work on them pub
lished in 1923: THE day before the occur
renee of the disaster a seaman of the Asso-
citation (man-of-warE well acquainted with
the navigation of the channel, ventured to
represent to the admiral that, by the course
he was steering, he would inevitably run on
Scilly rocks.
THE admiral was incensed at this Off
ciousness, as he considered it, charged the
man with insubordination and endeavoring
to excite mutiny, and in very summary
manner condemned him to be hanged The
poor fellow begged as last favor that a
psalm might be read before his execution,
which, being granted, he chose the 109th
remarkable for expressions imprecatory or
declaratory of evil. He was hanged ac-
cording to sentence" Admirals certainly
did very high-handed things in those days,
but Shovel, who had himself been a com
mon sailor before the mast, enjoyed the
reputation of being very good and humane.
If he did do this the retribution was indeed
awful. He is generally supposed to have
been washed alive, and murdered for a
costly ring he wore.

Cleopatla's Needle is to stand on the Vic
toria Embankment, at the Adelphi Steps.
The objection had been raised that,
although the foundations of the Embank-
ment were laid in solid concrete, yet this
rested on a stratum of Thames mud and
ooze, so that to erect an obelisk weighing,
with its substructure, about two hundred
tons would be a hazardous. experiment.
The Engineer of the Board of Works re-
piled by pointing to the iron pillars of the
Charing Cross Bridge, close by. which had
long borne weight on each square foot
double that of the obelisk The site was
finally chosen by the Board, and the Needle
will be placed where its proportions will not
be dwarfed by surrounding buildings, and
where, as Mrs Dixon says the splendid
gray granite of the Embankment, the solid
grandeur of Waterloo Bridge, the distant
background of Somerset House, the river,
and the Adelphi Gardens form appropriate
surroundings.

The Next ExpositfOu.

The Board of Exposition Commissioner
met yesterday afternoon for the purpose o
discussing whether or not it was possible Il
hold an Exposition this year, in view o.
the backwardness of the people in subscrib
ing for the guarantee fund.
The question was fully discussed, and the
prevailing opinion among the members
seemed to be that an Exposition should be
held whether all the buildings could be
erected or not, since with the Music Hall
alone fair Exposition could be given. A
Committee was then appointed to confer
with the Trustees
After the adjournment of the Board, the

The bread on the waters has returned to
a young lady in Clappertown, Pa, after a
few years. On December 2Sth, 1873, she
met on railroad train a lady who was very
ILL., and she kindly ministered unto her,
taking care of her and accompanying her to
her place of destination. When they parted
the sick woman offered to reward the young
lady for her kindness and attention, but
she would take nothing. The old woman
wrote down the name and address, nodded
familiarly to her, and said "You will be
paid SOME day" The young lady never
saw her chance acquaintance again, but the
sum of 800, 900 has recently been bequeathed
to her. The old woman had no relatives in
this country, and left all her money to the
girl who had befriended her.

Reasons WHY.

The reasons why DR.. Prices Flavorine
Extracts, Lemon, Vanilla, etc, are superior
to all others is because they are prepared
from choice selected fruits and aromatics
without coloring or poisonous oils, all the
tlayoring principles are retained unchanged
by chemical action, highly concentrated,
requiring less to flavor.
