James Whitcomb Riley, the Hoosier
poet, says: when God sorts out the
weather and sends rain, why rain is my
choice" Riley's way of putting the
idea may be original with him, but the
idea was expressed by a noted sage many
years ago little differently. To some
grumbling remarks about the horrible
weather, made by some one in his pres
ence, the sage replied that it was Just
such weather as pleased him; for, said
he, lit pleases our Heavenly Father,
and what pleaseS Him pleases me-"

The alloting plan has found its first
test in the Sac and Fox country. In the
sixty days provided for that work, the
agent only induced seventy out of
hundred and ten Indians 10 take lands,
and this too after a more than average
satisfactory understanding had been
effected by the commission. The re-
naming forty Indians were given lands
with dispatch and without giving them
the chance of deliberate choice, which of
course was their own fault. The plan
does not work with the smoothness that
was expected. but in lieu of some better

The trial and conviction of juror

to secure justice in New Orleans, as re-

minister, from that city.

The mind can by a certain process come to
believe anything, but it does not affect
mans being. Throughout the entire history
In some kind OF supreme being, God oil
gods. This yearning for an unseen God has
ever been indicative of an upward tendency
in man. The lowest tribe of savages would
be still lower if it did not in some way give
signs of belief in the infinite. 1t is this
which makes religion the accompaniment
and the source of all human good, develop
ment and knowledge. Whenever few
tribes merge into larger unity they do IT
under the name of a God. The tribes Of
Israel led out of the wilderness in the prom
ised land by Jehovah was the work of tins
unseen hand. All increase in power In
love. in knowledge, in wisdom, in happiness
comes from this source.
IT CHARMS THE WORLD.
There are epochs of progress, OF decay. OF
strength, of weakness, of religion. OF lnl-
deity. Religion is strength, hope, love;
progress, happiness; all these and much
more. Wherever we turn there God faces

premely the force which Jesus Christ
brings to us. Christ did not bring to US a
new religion. He comes from a historic
people he grows out of a historic race. He
comes from the depths of the infinite, not
like the prophets pronOuncing woe, but like
the dawn upon mountain top rising higher
and higher, until all the valleys are lighted
with sunshine, peace and a gentle calm.

produce vessels that should be valued, not
only Tor their intrinsic worth, but for their
artistic finish as well. One of the chalices
is magnificent example OF the finest filigree
work, and will be used only on grand occa-
slous. 1t is ornamented with twelve me-
dalions depicting scenes in the life of
Christ, the base, stem and bowl being
beautihed with clusters of grapes and vine
leaves. The second chalice is much palmer
but presents an equally artistic appearance.
1t Is finished IN dull gold and is ornamented
with cirelet of vines and a medallion of
the cruclfxion. Both patens are of the fin
est gold, perfectly plain on the upper sur
face and handsomely chased on the reverse
The cib0rium, the largest of the vessels, is
of bright gold, Ornamented with conven-
tional leaves, the lid surmOunted by cross
and the bowl bearing the inscription.
"Custate ct vidate, hic est pants Del qui de
colo deseendit ct dat vitam mundo" The
cruets are OF finest crystal, mounted in gold
and handsomely cut. A ruby is set in the
stopper Of that intended for the sacramental
wine and an aqua marine in thai for the
water.
In addition to these the crozier and pro-
ceSsionai cross We're used for the first time
in yesterdays services. Both were presented
to the Archbishop by the priests of the
diocese on the occasion of the twrnty-fifth
anniversary OF his ordination in June last,
and at the time were fully described. The
crozier is especially handsome and is rich in

A CHURCH BUILDER.
Archbishop z. w. Riordan's Distinguish
In,

Archbishop Z. w. Riordan's Distinguish
ing Works.
His Grace Archbishop Riordan h as dis
tingMshed himself among the prelates of
America as a church builder. What he has
already accomplished in this line seems
wonderful, for it is not many years ago
since he began by building the magnificent
church of st. James in his old parish in
Chicago. This edfice is built of stone in
the devotional Gothic style of architecture
and is one of the finest churches OF Chicago.
1t is larger than the new Cathedral in this
city.
Since he assumed charge of this archdio-
cese, four churches in San Francisco and
one in Oakland have been built and dedi-
Gated to God for divine worship. These are
st. Charles BarromeO'S and st. James in
the Mission and the Sacred Heart and Star
of the Sea in the Western Addition, and St
Francis de Sales in Oakland, of which
Father McSweeney is pastor. In the
country q small church has been erected at
TiDuron, another near Petaluma, one at
Mendocno City, Fort Bragg and other parts
OF the State.
Attached to most of them are comfortable
paroehial residences. Schools have been
completed in st. Bridget's, ST. Pntrick's
and ST. Roses parishes. and are now well
attended, while schoolrooms are also at
tached to the new churches of st. Charles
and the Sacred Heart. The large and fash
lonaDle academy OIL the Sacred Heart on
Franklin and Ellis streets, and the San
Rafael College are also among the number.
So far the cathedral on Van Ness avenue
has been the largest undertaking of his
!, Grace, but he is now contemplating the big
gest work OF his life-a theological semin-
airy near San Rafael. For this institution
of learning a site will be selected in the 60
acre tract between San Rafael and Tamal-
pals, or rather southeast Of the latter pl CO.
In the beginning between $500 and $780,
000 will be expended in buildings of stone
and brick, but it will grow afterward to
great proportions. While collegiate and
philosophical courses will be included in
the proposed curriculum the seminary will
be exclusively Tor students for the priest
hood.

THE FIRST CATHEDRAL.


Ats dedication Great Event in Early
San Francisco.
Inc cornerstone of the old St. Mary'S
Cathedral was laid on Sunday, July II,
1000, with imposing ceremonies. Arch
bishop Alemany Of honored memory Off
clated. lie was assisted by Very Rev. Juan
Francisco Llebaria, then Vicar-General,
rev. Rather Fontaine. Rev. Hugh p. Gala
CHER, Rev. Father McGnness and Rev. An
thony Jimeno. Up to the day the ceremony
was performed so large gathering had not
been seen in pioneer San Francisco. 1t
seemed that nearly the whole city came out
to witness the event. for the structure about
to be erected was expected TO be magnif-
cent Iii the peoples eyes.
A sermon was preached in English by
Rev. Hugh 2. Gallagher. and Father Lleba-
ria addressed the congregation in Spanish
as large portion of the people present did
not understand the other language.
he first mass was celebrated i'm the
chureh at midnight of Christmas, 1854, when
the edlh was dedicated. Father Harring-
ton OF 81. Francis was master OF cere-
monies this solemn mass, though at that
ume he was not ordained. Father Har-
rlnston was the first priest to receive holy
orders in the old church. His ordination
took place in 1854 on Easter Saturday
Since the beginning its pastors were in
regular succession, Very Revs. Fathers

the new cathedral.
NO MORE PARISH.
The church Oh California and Dupont
streets was the same in 1851 as now, and
was considered one OF the principal build
ings III the city for long Time afterward.
Situated as it Was in the heart of the city mt
that time, 1t was, and continued to be until
within less than ten years ago, the principal
blaze of worship of the Catholic residents.
Until Sunday, the 4th inst, it " as the place
of worship for many of the best Catholic
families of the city. On that day it ceased
to be parish church, and in future il will
simply be chapel of convenience for those
who live i'll the immediate vicinity. The
last solemn service was celebrated by Arch
bishop Rlordan, who was assisted by Rev.
George Montgomery, Very Rev. John j.
Prendergast, V. G., and Father McCue.
Masses will be still said at and o'clock
Sunday mornings After high mass was
over number OF the old parishioners who
had attended service there for a score OF
years remained and made their farewell de-
yotlons at the different affairs, and per-
formed the Stations Of the Cross.
