Story of Cardinal Gibbons,

When Cardinal Gibbons was a
missionary bishop in North Carolina
he once spent Sunday at the house of
a gentleman who was a aptist, but
whose wife was a Catholic. There
was no Catholic church in the plac,,
and Sunday morning his host said to
him:
"Father, our preacher is away to-
day: would you have the kindness to
conduct services for u.s."
81 consented" says the Cardinal,
in telling the story. 'and went to the
Baptist meeting house. Did l a
mass for them? @, no. my children.
l stepped uDon the platform, was iu-
troduccd by the gentleman already
mentioned. and selected a hymn. read
1T aloud, and requested the choir and
congregation to sing it. After that
l recited the Lords Prayer, and then
choosing Il portion of the gospel from
the Bible | found on the stand, |
preached to them such explanation
and comment as seemed necessary
for the instruction and spiritual ad-
vantage OF my hearers. The sermon
over, the collection was taken up in
the regular style. another hymn was
sung. and l dismissed the congrega-
tiOn with the usual benediction."

Solid Goodness.

Among the passengers in the car
was Il rather stout old lady with
clutches, who sat in a corner seat.
When the car STOPPED she rose with
vlden difficulty, and moved slowly
toward the door. Two me stepped
forward promptly to assist her out
upon the platform. With the best in
tentlons in the world they were yet
making pretty hard work of it when
the car driver %appea!ed: he had
walked along outside the car from
the front to the rear platform where
the Old lady and her supporters now
were. Prompted clearly not by de-
sire to hurry anybody, but solely by a
desire to serve the old lady he
stepped upon the lower step, and
without an instants hesitation, and
al n same time W tn perfect civil
ity OF manner, he placed his arms
around her and lifted her as easily
ana handled her as gently as though
She had been a child. She looked up
at MIN with a pleasant smile as she
stood upon the crosswalk and SAID.
"God bless YOU" A moment later
the car was bowling along the street
and the old lady was moving slowlY
but cheerfully on her way.--New

Freiherr Won Meyerinck was condemned
to four years and six months imprlson-

Rosenberg and Julius Suesssman were
each fined /, 800 marks. with the alterna-
