homily, which seemed to be teaching now
to avoid the doom of sin, with the words,
"You be da.a a-mned," uttered in low,
earnest tones. Some of their mistakes
were ludicrous. One italian spoke of
Lazarus as reposing in Alb aham's womb,
and another constantly referred to the
whale in Jonah's belly. For many years
no banquet took place at the archiepisco-

When the Dark Comes.

A little girl sat at twilight in her sick

day she had been full Of fun and had
many times worried her poor, tired
mother.
''Ma,'' said the little girl, what do
you suppose makes me get over my mis-
chief, and begin to act good. just about
this time every night?"
ST do rot know, dear. Can you tell?"
''Well, I guess 1t is because this is
when the dark comes. You know am
a little afraid Of that. And then, ma,
I begin to think Of all the naughty
things have done to grieve YOU, and
that perhaps you might die before
morning; and SO begin to act good. =
..Oh, z thought /, how MANY Of us

Teens with noisy throng?
What though men handy everywhere
The ribald jest and song?
Over the din Of oaths and cries
Broodeth wondrous calm
And mid that solemn stiffness rise
The bells OF Notrs Dame.

And thou. o gentle mother. pray
That God be reconciled;
And on mankind, o Christ our King,
Pour ont Thy gracious balm"

Those bells Of Notrs Dame.
And SO, methinks. God, bending down,
To ken the things Of earth,
Heeds not the mockery of the town
Or cries of ribald mirth;
For ever sounded in his ears
A penitential psalm
IT'S thy angelic voice he hears,
o bells of Notre Dame!
Plead on, o bells, that thy sweet voice
May still forever be
An intercession to rejoice
Benign divinity;
And that thy tuneful grace may fall,
Like dew, quickening balm
Upon the arid hearts of all

Ring of Plus TX,

Rev. Father Phelan. of st. Lous, has
in his possession a ring that once graced
the finger of Pope Plus TX. The ring is
now the property OF Mr.. Robert Bagnall.
of st. Louis, who accompanied Father
Phelan on his recent trip to the Eternal
City. The late Pope, in his will, d.
rected that upon his death all
his possessions, even dom to
his jewels and clothing, should
be sold at public auction and the
proceeds given to the poor. In the face
of spirited bidding from the College Of
Cardinals, wealthy r man lady secured
this ring. At the time Father Phelan
and Mr.. Bagnall were in Rome, this lady,
being then III greatly reduced ciroum-
stances, made overtures to them through
a third party for the sale of the ring.
The lady offer was gladly accepted, and
Mr.. Bagnall became the purchaser of the
level at round sum. Father Phelan
satisfied himself that it was the late
Pope's ring, from the assurance Of Mgr.
Ricci, major domo for Pope Plus TX,
now Cardinal r cci. It is a massive seal
ring, will, an exquisite emerald setting,
surrounded by lO2 smaller stones, dia-
monds, sapphires, pearls and rubbies.
Aside from these associations, the ring
possesses an intrinsic value of many
thousands Of dollars. Surrounding the
emerald are rs pearls; extending around
the sides are 20 diamonds, on each side
of the emerald is a small solitaire sur
rounded by bril- 'iants; on the corner
facets Of the seal are "a stones, following
the same arrangements, being set in tri-
angular form; below the double row of
diamonds, on each side, appear ruby
and two sapphires. The entire arrange
ment is in perfect artistic taste, and the
jewel is worthy place in royal collec-
ton. The workmanship on this ring is
estimated at 81, 800, and the emerald is
worth 1000 at the lowest valuation.
Mr. Bagnall and Father Phelan had some
difficulty in keeping it; for, when high
Church official obtained a glimpse of it,
demand was made that it should not be
allowed to be taken out of the country.
Archbishop Croke was almost inconsol-
able when he learned that he could not
keep the treasure in Ireland.

AT THE MOUTH OF THE PIT


With a distant relative of her mother at
Chelmsford, a benevolent Quakeress who
had lived almost alone for years, doing
deeds of charity with the competence she
had, Blanche found a welcome and hos
pitabie refuge. AS was her wont, Mrs.
Grayson warmly enlisted herself in the
cause of the accused; not only because
he was the betrothed Of her fair young
relative, but because he was under accu-
satiOn for crime. Her generous heart
ever went ont in pity for the afflicted and
the sorely burdened. and her aid, advice,
and comfort were precious to the lovers
in this fearful crisis. She went up to
London herself and retained one of the
foremost sergeants of the bar to defend
Captain COurtenay. The advocate came
to Chelmsford, had several interviews
with his client, visited Ipswich, COlches-
ter the Red Lion Inn, and even Penn

The Delegate Up-Stairs.

One day when q whole bus full of
us drove up to the hotel in Lynch
burg, Va, the landlord remembered
that he had a drummer from New York
who had been suffering terribly with a
tOOthache for two or three days. He
had tried every remedy known to man,
except that Of having it pulled. He
said he hoped some one of us might
be able to suggest something, and
slowly added:
Gentlemen, I have heard that a
sudden shock to a mans nervous sys-
TEN would sometimes cure the worst
tOOthache. Can't you plan something ?"
Six or eight of us got together in the
reading room, and it was finally decid-
ed that q man named Simmons, who
turned out to be a patent medicine ad-
vertiser, should go up to the room and
startle the New-YOrker. He was to do
1t by claiming to have seen a dispatch
to the effect that his wife had run
away with another man. We thought
that ought to cure his tOothache if any
thing would.
How big a man is he!" asked the
delegate when ready to go up.
ooh, he's rather understood, replied
the landlord. eff he should get on his
ear, you can easily slam him all over.

The medicine man went up. We
followed, and stood at the door to hear
the result. He found the New-YOrker
grOaning like a sick horse; and after
introducing himself, he said
Sorry for you, old fellow, particu-
larly st this time, but L have bad news
for you"
"No!" exclaimed the other, sitting up
In bed
BE calm, old boy, It's about your

"Is-she dead?"

There was a wild yell, followed by

medicine man fell into the hall, and
