splendor by those OF any Kings Take, for in
stance, the Archtishops of Toledo. They not
only ruled in Church matters, but made even
the Kings tremble They headed armies, won
battles and drew up charts and codes. Besides,
they had monopoized all the learning. and
others were dependent them. They built
eathedrals bridges, etc, at will; sent their
friends to the good place and condemned their
enemies to everlasting punishment in true
arbitrary power Their wealth was enormous.
1t ran far into what millions represent at this
time.
Their means of raising money was a never
failing one. In that they had the advantage
of temporal Kings 1t was a never-faiiing one
in an age of su perstition such as the dar. ages.
An ignorant people who were afraid 10 venture
out on the Atlantic for fear a mighty hand
would reach up aud pull them beneath the
waves were equally afraid that some mysterious
hand would draw them into hell-fire if they
disobeyed the earthly representatives Of the
Almighty.
So these high Church functionaries, when in
need OF money, had only TO threaten eXcom-
munication withdrawal of the consolation Of
the Church, and the poor people would bring
their little all and lay it on the altar as an
offering, whence it was very little matter for
a corrupt clergy to remove the money to their
own capacious pockets So the Kings have
many times been made to humble themselves
before these powerful Bishops. Once in while
only some King has let it be known that he
alone was master.
At one time the monasteries in Spain were
very numerous. In the 10th century there
were 1900 converts containing 10000 monks.
Besides, there were about / 900 nunneries with
a proportionately large number of inmates.
Even at the beginning of this century the
revenues of the Church from properties was
over S30000.00o. Nearly all the monasteries
have been suppressed and the proceeds turned
over to the State so that the condition of things
is much better

now admire so much were not always labors of

founded by some ambitious King or Prelate
who wished to perpetuate his memory by
work greater than any Of his predecessors. /
have seen several which were built only after
centuries of sacrifice the part Of the poor
parishioners. In what it is customary to call
the "age of faith /" il was harder to raise
money than in the present prosaic time. What
would be built now in few years took as
many generations then. The Bishops frequent
~ appealed to the Pope to enforce the pious
practice of donations Fierce anathemas were
pronounced against those who should resist the
Ievies. These anathemas sometimes consisted
OF several extra years in purgatory some
thing equally terrible
On the other hand, indulgences were granted
to the faithful in return for their generosity.
These extended over period in proportion to
the amount during which time certain things
would be pardoned. This furnished good
way to raise money and good method for the
scrupuIous TO purchase the ease of that sensitive
organ, the conscience

The majority of the churches are named
after the Virgin or some of her attributes, but
the most common name is "Nulstra Sonora"
lOnr Lady.
The Church is most intimately interviewer
into the life of the people. This all comes to
the surface in the celebrations of the various
Church holidays or festivals. Then whatever
religious fervor there is in Spanish natures
breaks forth and the pageants of the Christ
mas and Easter seasons are grand. At other
times, however, there is general apathy.
The influence Of the Church on the people
has always been great-neither all good nor
all bad.
During the dark ages the Church treasured
all the ancient learning and art that was pre-
served, and as such did great work for poster
ity, although they kept all learning from the
people. In Spain, in the monasteries were pre-
served thousands of manuscripts which arc
valuable. Many of these have never been in
vestigated and are still stored away in clois-
tered and obscure libraries. The monks were
learned but very imaginative. So on this ac
count much Of the history they wrote cannot
be relied upon
The Reformation seems to have made much
less impression in Spain than i'll the rest of
Europe. Numerous Protestant martyrs are
recorded, but the Church militant here seems
finally to have completely crushed out this
heresy" and become master again. To-day

The people go to mass and con iessonal it APP
pears. They always dress in black for that,
and any day many are to be seen going to
church. Inside the churches small number
are praying before the various images counting
their beads, crossing themselves, and kissing
the feet Of the Virgin. Women by far predom

OF all these Christian heroes of Spain the Cid
has been by far the favorite. This semi-his.
torie, semi-iegeBdary character has been so
much written about that the very name has be-
come synonymeus with the marvellous But this

make any difference.

If the religion here is to be judged by the
life of the people should say there was very
little indeed. Religion and morals seem to
have no connection There are few signs Of
real piety--as few as in France which is noted
as the land of free thought.

The Church has not done what she should
for the people. The Roman Church has always
called herself the champion of education,
yet here, where there is no opposition, educa-
ton is at very low cbb. In some Of the prov
inces scarcely more than one in ten can read.
1t is only improving now that the State has
taken charge of it. Comparing that with, for
instance glish-speaking countries and
wonderful difference is seen-all in favor of the
latter.
The trouble is that the clergy have grown
inactive. The lower clergy are and always

easily BE- recognized by the traveller. They
know little more than to go through their
ritual by rote. They are fat. as though they
lived off the fat of the land. They walk along
the streets smoking their cigarets, and many
are said to have most excellent wine cellars
In some Of the cathedrals have counted from
80 to 40 of the clergy at one service. That
would not represent near all connected with
the one church. They chant over the services
in a very humdrum way.
What the Spanish Church needs is a good re-
vival on the Methodist order; one which will
stir up the people and give little life to the
dormant energies of the priesthood. Many, it
is true. arc doing good work, but their num-
bers are by far too few for the work to be done.
Under the influence of the Church Spain is rap
idly on the decay and doubtless will never re-
cover her former great prosperity.

These magnificent cathedrals are somewhat
like the Spaniard himself. The "capa" which
lie now throws so majesticaliy over his shoulder
is but substitute for the richly embroidered
msnta Of former days. Their former gold and
silver ornaments are now represented by the
cheaper and more common gilt which generally
answers the same purpose. What escaped the
cupidity of some of the Spanish Kings fell into
the hands of Napolean's soldiers at the begin
ming of the present century. In Seville alone,
where the churches and private houses were
unusually rich, the plumber of the French was
estimated at S30.000000. Besides this the
French being lovers of paintings seized the
choicest works from the eatbedras and they
