WITH IMPOSING CEREMONIES.
The Pallium Conferred Upon Archbishop
Katzer at Milwaukee.

MILWAUKEE, August 20.--Cardina]
Gibbons conferred the pal]ium upon
Archbishop Katzer to-day, with the
most Imposing ceremonies ever held in
st. Johns cathedral. The procession of
priests and prelates who participated in
the ceremonies was announced to start
from Bishops hall, on Van Buren,
street, at $50 o'clock, but like most
other professions, this one was late and
it was after 10 O'Clock when the clang-
ing Of the cathedral bell announced that
1T had started. The spectators, how
ever. were prompt, and crowd that
filed the cathedral and overt1owed upon
the steps and street, and the court
house square opposite was On hand an
hour before the procession made its ap-
pearance. When the priests set out
from the scnoolhouse hall, on Van
Buren, street, ROBBED ia their cassocks
and SUPPLIES, there were Sl5 of them in
line, exclusive OF the cardinal, arch
| bishops, bishops and other dignitaries,
who j01ned the procession at the clergy
house on the corner of Jackson aid
Oneida streets, and it was stated to be
the largest assemblage OF Catholic
clergy ever held IN Wiscon sin. AT the
head of the procession walked cross
bearer and two boys bearing candles,
and then followed the priests and friars.
OF the latter there we're a number,
some bearded capuchins from the mon
astery on the north si1e, and others in
the white cOwl of the Dominican order.
The line was so long that before the
last priest had left the school house the
head of the procession was at the ca
thedral door.

PROFIT in CANARiES.
A Means by Which Women Can Make
Money.


Money.
In many parts of Germany, particu-
larly in the Harz mountains, women
make hundreds Of dollars a year solely
on canaries. They give UP two or three
rooms in the house to them, and in one
room sometimes have as many as two
hundred cages, each containing a pair
of birds busily engaged in raising fami-
lies. The care of birds requires good
deal Of time, but if properly tended,
and so kept healthy, they will raise two
or three families every summer, and
sometimes ten to fifteen young birds
are the result of one seasons Matching
from single pair. AS long as women
keep canaries as pets the demand will
continue, for the birds are delicate and
short-lived; but pair of healthy birds
always commands a good price and the
outlay of capital is small, and for an
indoor employment few kinds of bust
ness render more profit on the size of
the investment.

CATHOLIC MESSENGER: Lord Sails
bury's government has conceived the
forlorn hope Of proposing scheme for
local government in Ireland. The ex-

the Unionists will become enthusiastic,
the Liberals will be satisfied and the
Irish will be divided, Backed by three
such results the Conservatives could &c

tt is remarkable how foreigners dom
iciled in this country still cling to their
native customs. This is. especially true
when they are congregated in largo
numbers. The single German, French
man or Norwegian who has made MS
home in some portion Of this land OF
liberty may still adhere to his oddities
and habits of old, but he does not meet
with the necessary encouragement from
his fellows, and probably: finds that
often ridicule takes the place Of tho ex-
pected appreciation.
Last summer a field hand on one OF
the farms in North Dakota was struck
by lightning and instantly killed. The
proprietor of the farm notified the
parents of the unfortunate Swede OF
their sons fate. They were an old
couple who own and farmed one OF
those quarter-section tracts that Uncle
Sam gives away so lavishly. They had
been in this country for many years,
their son was born here, and yet, when
it came to the solemnity of burial, they
reverted at once to the memories Of
their native land and it's customs.
The 1arents did not even go to view
the body nor attend to it's preparation
for the grave, says the Illustrated
American. Friends brought it home in
an ordinary farm wagon, and then, in
stead of carrying it into the house,
placed the remains upon a wide plank
resting on two upt11rned barrels in the
stable. Horses grew FESTIVE as they al
ways will when placed near corpse.
The cattle forgot to munich their hay,
and covered back in the stalls, show
ing their realization that something I'M
usual was happening. ALI this while
the dead boys parents were busy with
in doors dcnning their best apparel; tho
aged mother even hunted up an old
hair trunk, from the depth Of which an
odd and peculiar sort of inter was
taken, decorated with ribbons of all
possible and impossible colors. This
she solemnly placed upon her head, as
she had seen it done in the faraway
home, so long ago. near the North Cape.

Then all, excepting the parents, ad-
journed to the stable, collecting around
the body of the dead man, where re-
freshments were served, and an occa-
sional low, wailing song was chanted.
After this they proceeded to the burial
ground ten miles away, and the last sad
rites were performed after the same
simple manner.
Strangest of all, the two beings most
interested still sat within doors, in SOL
emn silence, decorated with their quaint
relics of dress. They declined to ac-
company the funeral cortege, and hours
afterward, when the mourners and
friends had returned, were sitting inn
movable as though spellbound. Supper
for the entire assemblage concluded
this rather ghostly performance, but
the old people who had lost their boy
still sat silently as before, without an
expression of complaint or plea for sym

PHARIsA1sM IN PUBLIC LIFE.
From the November Arena.

G1@@A@NASN>-SN~
From the November Arena.
The poisonous and corrupting inAu-
ence Of Pharisaism Ia noticeable in every
strata of society, as vicious and odlous
to-day as when the great Galilean, with
the supreme contempt Of pure and
genuine soul, denounced in such wither-
Ing terms those who pretended to be
what they were not. Evil and repulsive
as hypocrisy must ever appear, it as
gumeS colossal proportions az moral
crime, when it masquersdes in the robes
OF official authority, for nothing 30 surely
undermines all respect for law in the
mind Of the masses as exhibitions Of In
sincerity, inconsistency, and Pharisalsm
by those invested with power. The peo-
pie are not 90 slow witted as the few who
take pride IA their superior DtflffaHgy
imagine. They quickly detect insIncerity
or hypocrisy; but unfortunately, they
frequently do not discriminate between
the offender and the Office in the nation
or the communion which he disgraces.
Pharisaism within the church, far more
than assaults from without, has destroyed
the old time influence Of theology over
the popular mind; while the same re-
suits are clearly manifest In our political
fabric. In the latter sphere, hypocrisy
is doubly odious, in that while under
mining the confidence Of the people in
law, justice, and government, it places
Ear greater power In the hands OF pre-.
tentious individuals than would be toler-
ated were It not for their profession Of
superior virtue, and thus enables persons
who are of small moral stature, or who
through defective training and unfortu-
nate environment are thoroughly narrow
and blgoted, to WELD despotic power,
often bringing swift and severe punish
ment on those far less guilty In the eye
Of the moral law than themselves. Be-
lIeving as I do that Pharisaism is to-day
one of the greatest evils which menace
the stability Of our government and the
continued advance of civilization along
the highwsy Of enlightened progress, /
feel it an urgent duty to frankly and
freely discuss some notable recent illus
tratlons which to unprejudlced minds
take on the cast Of Pharlsaism, and are
gymptomatic of q condition which pre-
sages the moral decline Of a nation. For
II history teaches one lesson more inn
preSsiYely than another, it is that In
which she emphasizes the fact that when
Pharisaism becomes enthroned In power,
when hypocrisy mantles insincerity and
depraVlty, the soul Of people goes out;
and though the form or shadow of
former greatness may remain for time,
like the oak which remains standing
after the tap-rOOt has been eaten out,
The advocate., 1891-11-11

Vitality, growth, and life have van
ished.
The first case which calls for attention
is that of Joseph A. Brltton, and it i'm
preSsively illustrates the evils which will
sooner or later come to any people who
permit the Pharisalcal element to arro-
gate authority, or who legalize the In
frtngement of liberty by authorizing the
establishment Of a censorship Of morals,
especially when power is lodged in the
hands Of persons who have penchant
for delving In moral sewers, and are not
hedged about with restrictions which
make them legally responsible for wrong
doing. Mr.. Britton, 1t win be remem-
bered, was long Mr.. Comstock's closest
counselor and most efficient aid. In the
course Of time however, he withdrew
from his former commander In order to
establish an association somewhat siml-
lar to that presided over by Mr.. Com
stock. Such societies will naturally ever
prove very alluring to men Of q certain
class, owing to the unwsrranted power
given to individuals, by which they are
enabled TO prosecute those in no way
guilty Of crime, and who, after innocence
Is established, have no redress for the
great expense and wrongs inflicted by
the irresponsible censorship. The new
organization was styled "The Society for
the Enforcement Of Criminal Law" and
Mr.. Britton has been from it's concep-
ton its leading spirit. About a year ago,
exercising a power, which, If permitted
at all, should always be confined to re-
sponsible judiciary, he caused the arrest
Of the president of the American News
Company, for selling some Of the works
Of Count Tolstoi and Balzac.
The courts promptly dismissed the
case, but Mr.. Farrelly had no redress for
the expense, the harassment, and lost
time incident to this unjust arrest. Since
then Mr.. Britton has had much trouble
with the courts and officers Of law, who
thoroughly dlstrust the man. He, how
ever, has been posing as q virtuous mar
tyr declaring that the police and ju-
dietary are all subsidized; that 1t Is
impossible for him 10 suppress the crimes
Of gamblers, saloon keepers, and the pro.
prietors Of diSorderly houses ON account
Of the officers being In colluslon with the
offenders. It is proper to state also that
counter charges have been freely made
In the daily press, and this gentleman
who assumes the role Of one peculiarly
fitted to unearth and punish sinners, has
been charged with using his Office for
blackmailing purposes. OF the truth or
HalsitY Of the charges know nothing, |
but the latest revelation relating to Mr.. |
Britton's career certainly gives color to |
some Of the charges which have been
The advocate., 1891-11-11

made against him. II seems that while
sincere and innocent persons who mis-
takenly support these mischievous organ
izations by freely giving hard earned
dollars to such persons as the gentleman
in question, vainlY hoping that their con.
tribution viii aid In exterminAting gam
bling, Mr.. BFitton has been recklessly en-
duEgEng in gambling himself. For q
time fortune favored him. He won, and
drew the money, but later, luck deserted
him and our pseudo-reformer lOBt quite
heavily. Being pressed for the amount
Of his gambling debts, aggregating 81, ,Os5,
he gave check which his creditor, Mr.
Robt. G. Irving, alleges was returned as
worthless. He then gave notes, the first
two Of which have come due but have
not been paid; consequently his creditor
now seeks redress in the courts. Mr..
Britton, probably feeling that his USE
fulnesS as q censor Of morals will be
seriously impaired by this unfeeling
revelation, displays considerable lndlg-
nation while admitting his guilt He
says in the column of one of the New
York dallles:--
II haze one WeakDeSs. EOOn the Uery
strOngsst minded men SViI bet on horses.
I do 1t. I admit 1t. But why do they
pick on meY Nobody notices the cor
ruption Of officials, but when the agent
for the Enforcement Of Criminal Law
bets on horse races and defaults on his
debts, everybody sets up howl"
And this ls q specimen Of the men
which Christian people are supporting
and encouraging, owing to their loud and
Pharisaical protestations Of superior vlr-
tue. The words spoken by the great
Nazarene teacher, and which ring down
the corridor Of ages, apply to-day as
aptly aS when In old Judea be said, "Woe
unto you, Scribes and Phsrisees, hypo-
critesl for ye are like unto whlted sepul-
chres, which indeed appear beautiful
outward, but are within full OF dead
mems bones and Of all uncleanllness.
Even so ye Outwardly appear righteous,
but within ye are full Of hypocrisy and
Another instance Of the evil Of cloth
ing PhariSaIsm with power was forcibly
illustrated in the recent prosecution Of
the Rev. j. B. Caldwell, editor Of Chris
tiGn Life. This noteworthy case illus
trates most painfully the fact that an |
innocent and noble-minded man, who
has committed no crime, ls liable TO be |
arrested as a common felon and placed |
at great expense, though perfectly limo |
cent, as was the case in this instance.
Yet In spite Of this great crime the
wronged man has no redress, while the
real criminals, they who caused the
prosecution Of the innocent, are In no
