ST. FRANcIs xAvIER.


Holy Mother Church celebrates on
next Sunday, Dec. 3, the feast of st.
Francis Xavier.
A young Spanish gentleman, in the
dangerous days Of the Reformation
was making q name for himself as a
professor of philosophy in the univer-
sity of Paris, and had seemingly no
higher aim, when Saint Ignattous OF
Loyala won him to heavenly thoughts
After a brief apostalate amongst his
countrymen in Rome he was sent by
st. Ignatius to the Indies, where for
twelve years he was to wear himself
out, bearing the gospel 10 Hindostan,
to Maiacca, and to Japan. Thwarted
by the jealousy, covetousness. and
carelessness Of those who should have
helped and encouraged him, neither
their opposition nor the difficulties of
every sort which he encountered could
make him slacken his labors for souls.
The vast kingdom of China, appealed
to his charity, and he was resolved to
risk his life to force an entry, When
God took him to Himself, and on the
3rd of December, 1852, he died, like
Moses. in sight of the land of promise.
Reflection: Some are specially called
to work for souls but there is no one
who cannot help much in their saliva
ton Holy example. earnest interces-
sion, the offerings of our actions in
their behalf, ali this needs only the
spirit which animated Saint Francis
Xavier, the desire to make some re-
turn to God.
ST Francis Xavier pray for us:
Prayer of ST. Francis Xavier: Lord,
all hearts are in thy hands, thou cans't
bend as it pleases Thee the most
stubborn, and soften the most obdur-
ate: do that honour this day, to the
Blood, Merits, Wounds, Name, and in
fuence Heart Of Thy beloved Son by
granting the conversion we ask. Amen.

The conduct of a Catholic girl who

last moment to consent to such an ar

her example will teach all Catholic girls
a lesson. It is too bad that the young
lady had rot, in the beginning, weighed
we'll the promises of the man she was

In remarking upon the fact that the
French republic. with which our Pro-
testant friends would have us believe
the Catholic Church was in league to
condemn Dreyfus, taxes even the Little
Sisters of the Poor Of whom the Jews
in this country are generous friends,
the Ave Maria says: This is the way
the third republic prefers to pay the
debt contracted by the maladministra-
ton or misappropriatio of its atheist
rulers. We wonder why England and
America, which made such q passionate
cutlery against France for her supposed
injustice to one man who may or may
not nave been guilty of treason, cannot
be aroused even to feeble protest
against France for systematic and long
continued injustice to these women,
whose one crime is that they desire to
follow the evangelical counsels and
serve the poor. the ignorant and the
friendless? Alasl the cause of the nuns
is not one to appeal TIC ribald newspa-
pers and sensational pulpit.

But He Made u Good officer.


Some 20 or % years ago a gentleman
Of this place was elected constable, and
although lie had no opposition his nery'
ousnes rs to the result was quite no
ticeable all during the day. After the
polls closed and he was declared elect.
ed he HE'D him to the river bank,
in the meantime having armed himself
with an old pepper box pistol, one OF
the earliest patterns of the revolver,
and shortly after was heard to 60
through this colloquy with some one
unseen. Pointing his pistol at a syca.
more tree he exclaimed in digniied
and dramatic style:
Halt! | am constable Of this dis
trict and command you to halt. You
won't. eh? Well. here goes"-bang! Il

Of my official duty. Now, l told you
to stop, but you woulln't"-bang! Just
then the old pepper box became TN
manageable and bang. bang. bang,
bang went the remaining four loads.
The firing soon attracted a crowd and
the tree was thus saved.

Sam Houston mud His Co-ns.

Professor Hiram CorsOn of Cornell
university, who used to be Il reporter
for the United States senate. tells this
story about Sam Houston: I'VE re-
porters took turn and urn about each
for an hour. One day l was sitting
idly in the reporters gallery. waiting
my turn and looking on. Presently my
attention was drawn by Senator Hous-
ton. Huge of frame, he was particu-
larry huge of feet, and those eXt:emi-
ties We're rendered the more conspicu-
GUS in those days Of boots by being
incased in laced shoes. On this occa-
sion there seemed to be m amount of
pain in those feet proportionate to
their size.
"The senator kept one upon his
knee, rubbing it. with an anguisled
expression and periodically %exchang-
ing for the other foot. After awhile he
unlaced his shoes and drew them off.
Then the nursing Of his aching toes
continued for a time as before. But no
relief anne. and at last, to my utter
amazement and amusement. he slowly
Invested himself of a long blue wooden
stocking, and, taking the huge jack
knife with which he was wont to pass,
the time whiting, he proceeded de-
liberately to pare his corns in the sen.
ate Of the United States"

Fish and Water.

Strange as it seems. a fish may suffer
death by drowning. When a stream
Is suddenly swollen with water that
has fallen upon and drained from sur
rounding soil which has been exposed
for some time previously to the suns
rays, the water is warmed and depriv.
ed Of its power of holding a proper
complement of oxygen. The vivifying
gas in consequence escapes. and the
fish, deprived of the aids necessary for
respiration. faint and die. as they
would If placed in tepid water.
A fish. like a man. requires a per-
petual supply Of oxygen to his breath
ing apparatus. A fish gets its oxygen
from the water, a man from the atmos-
phere around him. Reverse the posi-
ton Of the two. and the fish becomes
what is called drowned in the open
air, while man Is drowned in the wa
ter. A fish taken out of water dies
from drowning. because the little blood
containing filaments which comprise
the gills become stuck together and Of
course cannot act 10 as to oxygenate
the blood.

A Famous French LAWYER,


In the degenerate days of the third
Napoleon, and in the childhood Of the
third republic, Maitre Lochaud was the
idol Of the French bar. He won his
way by a fine combination Of wit,
nghtheartedness and e%loquence. He
was hail fellow well met among the
Journalists, who delighted to do him
honor publicly and in private. No one
suspected him Of scruple. He would
attack a prisoner as cheerfully as he
would defend him, provided his fee
was paid. And he did not invariably
take pains to make his case up, know
ing, as he did, that whether his client
lost or won he himself was tolerably
sure Of adding to his reputation as a
saver of bright things and an orator.
An hour after hearing a client SEN
fenced to the guillotine, or to Mazas.
you might have found him cracking
jokes with his confreres at the Cafe du
Palais. or dining en- partie carree at the
Maison Doree. His powers of repartee,
his epigrammatic felicity. and his hap
py go lucky, dashing, easy air frequent
ly stood him in good stead when. from
unfamiliarity with his own side of the
question he happened to be arguing, he
was ~momentarily embarrassed.
OF all French barristers Of recent
times he was unquesticnably the most
brilliant. the most ingenious and the
most generally popular. But he was
not the most worthy. Criterion
