Saint Benedict.
To-day the Catholic world begins the OBJ
servance of an anniversary of peculiar relig-
ious Importance. Services will be held in all
the Catholic churches throughout Christen-
dom in memory of Saint Benedict, the four
teen hundredth anniversary of his death.
THE BENEDICTINE ORDER.
Saint Benedict was born A. D. $50, and died
March Oath, A. D. 543. At an early age he
gave proof of the piety and wisdom which
made him ultimately the founder of the Bene-
dictine order of monks. which quickly assumed
strong hold upon the Western church. The
first monastery of this order was built on
Mount Casino, which exists to this day.
This order in the church is the most ancient
and most widespread. II has given to the
church twentY-four popes, and the learned of
the brotherhood have given to the church its
most eminent fathers, and for the world its
converts and monks and priests have been the
conservators of science, literature and art.
From the beginning, the Bene-
dictines devoted themselves to the
study of science and letters and the culture of
art. With such intellectual pursuits they
added the industry of agriculture. They be-
came in this way the teachers of youth and the
friend of the people in bringing them from the
rude attractions of war and rapine to the arts
of peace. Many colleges were established by
the Benedictines. and the order is noted in all
ages for master minds in literature, science and
for the fostering and protection of art. In the
dark ages, when decadence of all cultivation
or learning fell to the lot of man, the secret of
letters, the certainty of science and the beauty
of art were preserved in the Benedictine con-
vents or monasteries to await the renaissance,
for which to-day the world in its enhghten-
ment is the beneficiary.

Benedict's birth is to be observed to-day. In
