3 Says the New York Post: Zone OF the
best things told about the new ocean
steamer Majestic is that she has such en-
!cellent arrangements for ventilating the
stoke hole that her fremen work in COM
parative comfort, and during her first
trip not one was overcome by the heat
an unusual thing, it is said, in the voy
age Of greyhound. There is something
exceedingly unpleasant in the reflection,
which is forcing itself more and more on
the attention OF the happy crowds of
pleasure-seekery who now cross to
Europe every year, that down in the
depths of the great ships in which they
are lodged so luxuriously, large party
of men are risking their lives to keep up
the speed. These men are naturally
every year getting more and more dis
contented. The vigorous, hale and
hearty, whom such work requires, arc be-
coming harder to procure. A large pro-
portion of these stokers who get en-
Iployment on the steamers are wcedy fel.
lows down on their luck, who are willing
to.risk wretched existence for little
cash. But the system is altogether un-
fortunate, and the steamship companies
ought to seek remedy. With our pres.
ient powers of driving air about, it ought
to be possible to keep up mild tornado
in every stoke-hole, and subject the
stoker to no more risk than farm la
borer is exposed to on a warm day il
summer"

A sUENE OF HAPPINESS.
Charming Picture Of SIMPLICITY and Plety
in Catholic Family.


We can travel faster and make money
faster and spend it faster than did our
father of four hundred years ago. says
the Memphis Catholic Journal bur we
doubt if We can find at the present day
many copies of the charming pictures OF
Christian simplicity and piety presented
in the 'sWay Of Heaven which vas
published at Vienna in the year l477.
It depicts the father of the family
after dinner on Sunday, seated in the
midst of his family and little ones,
questioning them as to, what they have
remembered of the sermon preached in
the church, and telling tn N also what
he remembered He then questions
them concerning the Ten Command
ments OF God, the seven capital
sins, the Lords Prayer and the
Greed, and in conclnAion all sing toge-
ther some beautiful hymns in honor OF
God and the Blessed Virgin and the
Saints. Were parents to copy from this
beautiful picture nowadays, many a
zheartbroken father and mother would
have the JOY OF riding their children
as their glory and their crown, many q
family, instead Of being a picture of de-
ISOLATION and sorrow, would be rather a

What anguish of spirit you had to endure,
When first in the temple with Jesus you stood.
Then flowed for mankind the first drops Of his
blood. ,
When Simeon, so holy, your sorruws foretold,--
That sharp sword of sorrow should enter your
soul!
When Tar into Egypt with Jesus you fed,
Till Herod, the slayer of children, was dead.
And when in the temple you lost your sole joy.
The Teacher of Teachers, that beautiful Boy,
On Whose peerless forehead Divinity shone!
@, Mary. what grief when you lost such Son!
Again, when you met Him On Calvary's way,
Oh. who, dearest Mother, your sorrow can say?
The wounds of the scourging, the thorns cruel
dart
Net an answering pang in thy virginia. heart.
When nailed to the cross, and exalted on high,
Thy Jesus, the just One. did anguish and die,
Thy soul seemed to pass with his spirit away.
Thy sad heart was rent on that sorrowful day.
When the spear p creed His side, what sN ord
pierced thy soul!
@, Mother of Sorrows, who could thee console?
None, none but the Father of Mercies above
Could comfort, His Daughter, His beautiful
dove.
When Jesus was laid in the dark, silent tomb,
Thy sunlight was darkened. thy sun set in
gloom.

"a writer ii the Dublin IN alton & dis
pels the pleasing delusion that green

Erin's emblem Is of COM paratively res
cent date. He tells how chs Kilkenny

Tories and Bapparees, = that is, poor
peasants and others driven to despera-
tion by pressure Of the penal laws, wore
a uniform Of green and white, yet they
owned anything but national proclivi-
ties. A few corps Of the Irish Volun1
teers-that Of the Attorneys inclusive
trimmed their uniforms with green,
but this very likely was a matter more
Of fancy than OF national significance.
The definite establishment Of the
green as the national color Of ireland

Down the dim, yolceless valley alone! sss
And hear not the fall Of q footstep
Around me, save Gods and my own:
And the hush Of my heart. Is as holy
& AS houses where angels have fiown!
Long ago was 1 weary of voices ssS n I
whose music my heart could moi win:
Long aRO / was weary of noises
That fretted my soul with their din;
Long ago was weary OF places

F / craved what the world never gave,
And said, SIN the world each Ideal.
II II That shines like star on Hfe's wave,
rs wrecked on the shores Of the Real.
And sleeps like dream in the grave
And still did pine for the Perfect.
And still found the Ease with the True:
Isought mid the human for heaven,
4 But caught mere glimpse of its blue;
And wept when the clouds Of the mortal
Yelled even that glimpse FROM my view.
And toiled, heart tired of the human,
And moaned mid the mazes Of men.
Till knelt, long ago. at an altar.
And heard u voice call me. Since then
walk down the Valley of Silence,
That lies far beyond mortal ken.
Do you ask what found in the valley?
IT'S my trysting- place with the Divine
And fell at the feet of the Holy.
And above me voice said: BE mine.
And there arose from the depths ofmy spirit
An echo-''My heart shall be thine
Do you ask how live in the valley?

But nv tears are IS sweet as the deW-drops
That fall on the roses IN May:
And my prayer like perfume from censers
Ascendeth to God night and day.
In the hush of the Valley Of Silence
dream all the songs thatI sing;
And the music floats down the dim valley,
Till each finds word for wing
That to hearts, like the Dove Of the Deluge,
A message of peace they may bring.
But far on the deep there are pillows
Thatnever shall break on the beach;
And have heard songs in the silence
That never shall float into speech;
And have had dreams in the valley
Too lofty for language to reach.
And have seen thoughts in the valley
All mel how my spirit was stirred!
And they wear holy wells on their faces
Their footsteps can scarcely be heard:
They pass through the valley like virgins
Too pure for the touch of q word!
Do you ask me the place of that valley?
Ye hearts that are narrowed by care!
1t lieth afar between mountains
And God and His angels are there;
And ones the dark mount OF sorrow.
And one-the bright mountain of prayer!

the Church the Most Faithful Guardian
of the Wage-Earner.
Cardinal Manning's endorsement of
the German labor conference has re-
ceived the sanction Of our Holy Father
besides all Christians who have given
the labor problem any thought
Commenting on Cardinal Manning's
letter on the Emperor Of Germany's
rescripts, the ''Moniteur le Rome"
says that no more authorit ative pro-
nouncement in favor Of his Majesty's
action could be delivered than that Of
the yenerated Cardinal. he promi-
mont part taken in the settlement Of
the London Dock Strike by the Arch
bishop Of Westminster is, says the
Roman journal, well known. Cardi-
nal Manning, chosen as arbitrator. had
the glory OF putting an end to most
threatening conflict and thus of per-
forming, amid universal approval, a
fruitful work OF social pacifcation. =
In all his writings and all his acts,
Cardinal Manning, like Leo Kill,
ceases not to testify the liveliest inter
est in social and labor questions, and,
after the example of the Sovereign
Pontiff, he has affirmed under various
.circums stances that it is on this ground
the Catholics of all countries ought to
concentrate their attention and their
efforts. The Church Is the most faith
full gu ardian Of the rights Of the wage
earners. Her system OF politi econ
omy is founded on the saying OF her
Divine Founder 1.-The laborer is
worthy Of his hire and she can never
