Go Down to Death.

Death came swiftly Sunday morning to
14S passengers and crew of the steamer
Maria p, from Naples to La Plata, and
about to touch at Genoa. The Maria p.
was sunk by collision with the steamer
Ortigia, outbound. The scene of this,
the most terrible disaster known to the
waters of the Gulf of Genoa. was just off
the light house of the Molo Nuovo, at the
entrance to the harbor of Genoa. A dense
fog had prevailed over the harbor all
night. Both vessels were running at full
speed, and the sinking of the Maria p.
was but the incident of moment. Boats
from the Ortigia were Immediately put
out, but only succeeded in rescuing forty
two of the people of the unfortunate boat.
When there was no longer use for search
the Ortigia steamed slowly back TO the
city for repairs and TO deliver the survi-
vors to the authorities. 1t was full noon
when Genoa learned of the catastrophe,
which crowded the quays with people and
filled the churches with kneeling people
offering prayers for the dead. The list
of the drowned has not been secured.
The Maria p. was coasting vessel
used in the South American trade. La
Plata, on the Nagdalena River in the
United States OF Colombia. was the Gus
tomary end of her journey. She was
owned in Naples and her captains name
was Ferrara. The steamer always
touched at Genoa, for that port is the
chief outlet via the Mediterranean for the
manufacturers of Northern Italy and
Switzerland. The harhOr of Genoa is
considered one Of the finest on the con-
tinent and il under full government SUI
pervsion.
1t was go when the Molo Nuoyo was
rounded under high speed. The pilot,
straining his eyes to pierce the darkness
ahead, caught faint glimpse of dim
lights This was the first warning of the
proximity of the Ortigia to the Maria Z.
There was . wild scream from the pilot,
which those passengers awake and the
lookout heard. The engineers were sig
nailed to reverse. but it was too late. The
bow of the Ortigia crashed into the star
board side of the Maria F.. penetrating
for nearly forty feet and tearing up the
decks as if they were paper. Almost in
stantiy after the collision the Ortigia
withdrew, and the water rushed in, sink
ing the Maria 4. in three minutes.
No one can tell. not even the survivors,
what happened on the decks and in the
cabins of the Maria T. after the frightful
shock. She sank SO quickly that those
asleep never knew how death came to
them, while those awake, crew and pas
sengerS. found themselves struggling for
life in the waters of the gulf.
Although the bow of the Ortigia was
smashed for distance of twelve feet
along the water line. her officers held her

United States Authorities Receive
Startlin. Information.
The customs authorities of the Puget
Sound district have been instructed by
the government to keep sharp lookout
for filibustering parties fitting out for the
Hawaiian Islands. A few days ago it
was reported vessels were openly loading
and freighting to the islands munitions of
war Orders have now been issued to
closely watch and search all vessels
bound to the South Sea for arms. 1t is
believed a large quantity of arms and
ammunition have been struggled into
Hawaii from Puget Sound. 1t is posi-
lively known that secret agents of the
royalists dispatched one small consgn-
ment to the islands last October. One
source of information says an uprising is
planned to commence Sept. 1, and that
400 men will be in readiness to bear
arms against the government. The in
surgents. after being repeatedly drilled in
Southern California, expect to get their
stores and assistance from Puget Sound.

who made him q saint. In the saints
God crowns His own work-and the in
tellIgent Christian in honoring Gods
work honors God. and that act no Cath
Ollie is too ignorant to know.
The Catholic honors the Blessed Vir-
gin because God honored her The dig
nifty and the value of an act comes not
from the act itself. but from the indi-
vidual performing the act. Now, all the
works that all TIE saints and angels in
heaven could perform, acting upon their
own volition, could never equal in dig
nifty or in value even the en- bassy of the
Angel Gabriel when he announced to
the Virgin Mary that she should be the
Mother of the Savior. When man. or
saint, or an angel. acts of his own vol
ition. he represents only himself. He
represents creature-a finite being.
But when the Angel Gabriel said to the
Virgin. Hail, full of grace the Lord is
mighty. Therefore do l say that all the
acts Of all creatures. simply as such,
could never equal in dignity or in value
that one message.
But moreover, when Christ became
her son, he conferred upon her an honor
still greater because it was an act i'm
mediate, direct and most personal Oh the
part OF God Himself. Therefore to say
that a Christian honors God in honoring
His saints, seems scarcely to compre-
bend the sublime dignity which Christ
conferred upon the human race when be-
coming one of that race.
We adore God alone. but we give honor
to whom honor is due. We are taught to
honor father and mother. We are taught
to honor men in every relation in life
according to their position-the mayor,
the governor, the president. But We arc
taught to adore God alone. And no Cath
Ollie adores anybody else.

may be said that the more of pure affec-

of earthly passion enters into the COM
pact, the more lasting it is liable to be.
The new woman must marry new
man, and the new man cannot pose as
the sole breadwinner nor can he COM
mend himself to his spouse on the score
of wealth or external station. Marriages
in the now age will be made without ref
erence to financial condition, as women
will be thought self-supporting, but as

antly shown when the coming Utopia or
