srINGY MILLI0NAIRES.

The New York papers are finding a
surprising lot of names in that city That
should be put on subscription Est Tor
the worlds fair alongside of robust hg-
ures. There are 125 given that have an
income of quarter of million dollars
a year, and presumably are worth
$1,000 900. Those worth only one mil
lion number more than 300, and are be-
lieved to be nearer double that number.
In fact, a millionaire is a very ordinary
sort of an institution IN New York.
The re, are, however, quite number OF
citizens who are not worth more than
SAC, O0O, or so. The people with the
large figures do not spend much OF their
time giving away things or signing sub
scription papers. The worlds fair will
never 90 there if dependence is had
upon them. Chicago may not have as
many milllonaires, but it can raise more
money for the fair.

The TRUE CHURCH OF GOD.

The history Of the world shows how
time and again questions that were
supposed to be dead proved. IN fact. to
be living issues destined to revolution
ize society by their final settlement
How often have our bigoted brethren
announced from the pulpit and In prl
vate that the Catholic Church was on
the verge of an abyss, and that it was
destined to be numbered with the slain
They have also hundred times declared
that the Papacy was dead. and that 1t
would never rise from the tomb. In
spite of all these evil prophecies. which
were idle words to Catholics. the Church
has not only crossed every chasm
opened before her by prosecutions and
hatred, but she has by her triumpbs
over all obstacles proved that she is sup
ported by divine power, and that she
is invulnerable because she is the
Church of God. III

EVERY DAY RELIGION.

If there be any one thing which is
clearly set forth in the Gospel of our
Saviour, is is the very important truth
that true religion is matter for use
every day in the week. This seems to
be very simple as an abstract statement,
and yet it is one of the profoundest of
all the practical truths of the Catholic
doctrine. 1t appeals to the exercise
of the strongest and staunchest faith
which Christian is capable OF exer
cising. 1t is comparatively easy
thing to be religious On Sunday, es.
pecially in those communities where
the general morals are pretty thoroughly
permeated with Christian principle and
sentiment. And even where the average
morals are considerably below the
proper standard, it is easy to be devout
and devotional on Sunday. 1t is during
the week, amid the perplexitles of bu
siness, and in close contact with god
less men, that ones religion is put to
the stress. There are thousands of
protested Christians who can pass
through Sunday in quiet a religious sort
of mood and feel that they have made
a success of their faith and virtue; but,
when they get into Monday, and thus
into realistic touch with the iostling
activities of the worst side Of human
nature, they find that what seems to
be a success on Sunday, in an easy sort
Of way, is well-nign a failure and
harder to do. Now, we do not mean to
say that person cannot be just as good
a Christian on Monday as he can be on
Sunday, for We certainly believe that
he can. But we mean to say that it is
more difficult to be a thorough-golng
Christian on Monday that it is on Sum-
day. And, moreover. we assert that a
Christian should be as devoted to the
cause of Christ on weekday as on
Sunday. Indeed, there is greater
need of his being religious in the most
practical way on Monday than on Sum-
day, because he comes more directly in
contact with ungodly people on the
week lay, and they need his good in
t1uence and help. Christ's religion is
for everyday use and blessing.

THERE are seventy hospitals in Lon

medical advice was given to $500, 600
outdoor patients, or at least half the
population of the great city. OF the

%, 600 were cured. 81. 600 were discharged

IT would be just like laundering Bal
four to order his removable magistrates
to BRING in a verdict Of murder against
Father McFadden, who did all in his
powell to save the police inspector who
was killed some time ago at Gweedore.
Such verdict, however, would be the
deadliest blow Balfourism ever Inflicted
on the present Blush ministry, and
any attempt to execute it by sentencing
thepatrlotic and humane priest to death,
or even Imprisonment, would be sure
to lead to an agitation that would soon
burl Salisbury and Balfour out of power.

but by this recent attempt to advertise
himself at their expense his influence
among them has resolved into nothing
ness. The intelligent Irish people paid
no attention to his fresh talk about then

his explanation thereof. But the cob
tinuance of this measly controversy has
become uncomfortable because Of the fact
that every sensational rumor in connec-
ton with the affair bears tine ear marks
of having been manufactured by none
other than Ames & Co., and the above
report is not an exception. If Doc
Ames ever received such communications

every rational being knows, that there is
nothing very dangerous about them,
that they are either the products of arch
enemies of the Ir1sn, or worse, their fool
