ARCHBISHOP PURCELL.
His Opposition to Secession and Papal In
faIlibility-His Financial Troubles.

st. Louis Globe Democrat.
The late Archbishop Purcell was man
who, at all times filled large place in the
public eye, but several times in his life he
assumed prominence which was given him
by his individuality asserting itself in op-
position to the ordinary opinions of those
by whom he was surrounded. When the
war broke out, though no inconsid-
erable party in his church, even in
the North. sided with the South, the Arch
bishop was pronounced Union man, and
had not the slightest hesitation in giving
expression to his opinions even in the pull
pit. The course he took made him, for q
time, extremely unpopular among a GER
tain class of people even in his own church,
who thought he was going too far, but
he always zaalously defended his own con-
duct, and even his enemies came finally
to respect his uprightness, though they
disapproved of his judgment. He next
came into public notice when the dogma of
Papal lnfallibility was under discussion at
the Vatican council in 1869. Although a
born lrishman, his views, opinions and feel
ings were always decidedly American, and
with an American instinct he saw that the
doctrine would never take in this country.
From this and other reasons he opposed
IL bitterly, ana, LnOuSn tDe result was
contrary to his views, he gained more
credit from his defeat than he might have
won from victory. Though yelled in a
mass of technical and ecclesiastical verbiage,
the real point of his opposition to the dogma
was the sort of instructive foreknow ledge he
had that the dogma would not work in
America, where Catholics were surrounded
by all the influences of Professionalism
as we'll as of modern doubt and skepti-
cism. His opposition to the dogma,
however cost him his preferment since his
influence at the Vatican waned from that
day, and when a cardinal was to be appoint
ed McCloskey was the man instead OF Pur-
cell, although McCloskey had also opposed
the dogma, but had yielded in time TO save
himself. The last time the Archbishop
figured prominently in the public
mind was during his financial trou-
bles, which were too recent to need
recapituation. The facts about this affair
showed that the Archbishop was sngularly
unfortunate in undertaking to do banking
business without banking capacity. The peo-
pie of the numerous Catholic fiOcks of Gin
cihnati and the vicinity had the most un-
bounded confidence in him, and trusted
him freely with their money, with
out even asking security; he had
little business ability and with the most
honest intentions his affairs became involved
more and more deeply until the situation
was hopeless. Nobody ever believed that
his intentions were anything other than the
most upright but his failure was a lesson
which it would be well for others similarly

Judge W. II. Dills, of Auburn, and T. E. Eli

Jumping Masses.
Cleveland Leader

Cleveland Leader.
When in 1882 cholera was sweeping off the
inhabitants of Cincinnati, the bells of old
Trinity Catholic Church. on Fifth street,
were Kept jingling and tolling from daylight
till way on into the night. in honor of the
Catholic souls that were rapidly departing.
The effect of the dismal music was anything
but reviving to the cholera patients who
were lying within ear-shot of the church.
Indeed DR.. Norton, who is now, as he was
then, Il practicing physician in the city, and
who tells the story, went to Dr. Purcell in
quiring why it was necessary to keep the
bells constantly on the swing
I'VE are saying mass over the dead,' was
the clergymans solemn reply. You know
the dead are constantly being carried into
and out of the church, The music with bells
is part of the funeral rites
We'll, said the doctor, "that kind of
music is giving my patients the horrors. the
evil effect of which no amount of medicine
will counteract. Why can't you wait till
you accumulate good many corpses and
then lump the mass?'
"I'll do it." was the archbishop's reply,
and the masses were accordingly dumped -
the result of which was TO materially de-
crease the mortality in the vicinity of the
church Immediately thereafter.
