NEW PUBLICA TIONg.

The Gulf Citizen. conducted by T. C. De Leon,
Mobile.
We admire the promptness with which this
new literary candidate for popular favor
make it's monthly appearance.
Although there may be 4 few persons indif-
erent as to time, an immense majority look
upon punotuality az q primo virtue in q peri
odioal, and the want of it anpardonable. Every
body knows, for instance, how the poor daily
news6oy is bersted in case storm, hurri-
can, or q broken press delays him bare half
hour while we, personally, can testify to the
mutteripgs loud and deep that reach as when
ever an extra heavy mail keeps back our week
ly for an hour or two ; and monthly readers
are quite as petulant at having to wait sim
gle day beyond the accustomed period for the
appearance of their favorite magazine.
Now, the Gulf Cttisen having achieved puno-
tuality, has already won half the battle of
! existence, and. with its experienced conductor
and its splendid array of contributors, it will
60 hard indeed it if fail to secure popular ap-
probation. Still. we must whisper to the pub
shers, it will not deserre that appreciation, if
it continues to admit to it's columns prurient
French romances iinstead of the healthy m at.
ter it can easily command.

Cincinnati telegram.


We trust that the orators whose pleasing
duty it is to deliver the addresses to the
graduates this year-Rill in some form or
other remind the young men and women
now going out into the world of the vast
and real responsibilities that rest upon
them. They of all people are the hope of
the Church in this country. They are, OF
eyes of the world of Catholic teaching ana
it's influence on human life and conduct.
They represent the effects of Catholic
training, culture, thou ghS and feeling.
These, if they have been properly used
are immense advantages. For if they
mean anything they mean, over and above
mere Literary requirements, q substratum
of solid sense that the Catholic faith
always infuses, chastity of thought and
behavior, modesty in self assertion, charity
to others and spirit of self-sacrifice. If
these young men and women enter upon
the world much as other young men and
women, who have had NO Catholic training
at all, what is the natural COMMENT The
world has very keen eyes and guages
results of this kind very shrewdly. If
training produces no difference between
the two classes of students, where is our
boastf If Catholic young men fresh from
College are jnst as eager as any to enter
into every pleasure" as it is called, of
life, wherein lies the difference between
them and others7 If they show no good
example among such Protestant compan-
ions as may come in their way, who is to
show it I SIf they cannot defend their faith
when attacked, who is to defend it7 If
our Catholic girls are just as loud in tone,
as frivolous in conduct, as eager for empty
admiration, as inclined to be fast, as any
of their on-CathOlic sisters, what was the
use of their careful training, what is the
use of their calling themselves Catholics
at all7
Our Catholic youths and maidens enter
the world as veritable INSTRUMENTATION
best of missionaries who do their work
silently and urconsciously, though the
world has it's eye on them all the time and
is quietly comparing notes. Catholicity is
the truest manhood, as it is the noblest and
puTest Womanhood. 1t is the very anti
dote to the miserable spirit of the times
that knows no reverence, recognizes no
God, secretly worships money, and begin
ming and ending with I, is forever pushing
itself forward, asserting itself, seeking to
draw attention to itself, always fussy,
never at ease, inherently and essentially
vulgar and immodest. Honest worth is
sure to approve itself. Sober, self con-
talned manhood wins the admiration even
of those who are the very contrary in their
own nature. Modest womanhood at once
attracts tbs eyes and compels the admira-
tIon and reverence of all honest men. 1t
is race possessed of these qualities that
rs 30 sorely needed in the world to-day.
There is no such race unless formed and
fashioned by the chastening and sanctify-
ing hand of the Catholic Church, and it is
the high mission of our grade uates to prove
this by their lives.

The Late Dr.. John PoarOe o'Leary, of Sharon, Mis-.

On June 21st, died in Sharon, Miss DR.. John
Pearce OLeary, aged nearly seventy-six years.
His noble character and exemplary life deserve
| to be known outside of the circle of his family
| relatives and friends.
Born in Ireland, he emigrated to Georgia
over ffty-two years ago, where he lived until
1914, when he came to Mississippi. On the
basis of q good education, at home, he built
up, in Americs, with rarely paralleled diligence,
his much admired, profound and extensive
knowledge of medicine.
His fidelity to his profession was unsurpass.
ed.-With- an extensive practice, he continued
his medical studies to the end of his life.
Neither the fury Of an epidemic, nor the in
clemency of the weather, nor distance, nor the
darkness of night, could prevent DIR. OLsary
from immediately attending to an urgent call.
His charity, especially in his medical profes-
sion, was proverbial. Though seeing too much
of his former labors compensated only with
abase Of his charity, with dishonesty and in
gratitude, he would help agsin in time of need.
he was the friend and doctor of the poor and
of the most forsaken. The last act of his life
was one Of charity.
DR.. O'Leary was raised Protestant. But
fndiD 6, from practical observations and from
con nscientious study, the genuineness and trnth
of the teachings and practices of the Catholic
Church, soul like that of DR.. O'Leary was
too sincere not to listen to and follow the die
tates of his God and Of his conscienae. He
became Catholic under the heartfelt emo
tions and unaffected manifsstations of graft
tude to Gods clemency and mercy that had
brought him to grace and truth.
1t was ever edifying to witness his devotion,
when kueeling before the Blessed Sacrament,
or when approaching the Sacraments, or when
assisting at Holy Mass, or when reciting the
family prayers. He was observed to spend
hours in private prayer and devotionafreading.
As father Of family he was model. By
precept and example of charity, of sobriety,
of modesty, of piety, he has given to his chil-
dren and to others lessons that are not expect
ed ever to be forgotten.
Living as innocently as o child, and under
continual preparation for death, his sudden
departure could not be q real misfortune to
him. God sometimes permits such with regard
to pious souls, to remind the forgetful and the
careless of the uncertainty of death, and of
the necessity of being always prepared for it.
To the prayers of his relatives and friends
and Catholics in general, especially to the
" memento" of the priests, several of whom
acknowledge themselves to be, with regard to
this, under q special duty of gratitude, is
warmly recommended the soul of the charita-
