CATHOLIC COLONIZATION.
Archbishop Ireland on the Fruitful
ness of the Work.

In the course of the address by Arch
bishop Ireland at the unwilling of the
statue of Prince-Priest Gallitzin at Lo-
retto, His Grace said:
Some twenty-five years ago l I'M
dertook to coIoniZe western Minnesota.
1 brought there some 5000 or 1000 fami-
lies. Today we have oyer twenty priests
on those prairie land. The colonists that
| brought there and the idea of that
colonization came to me largely, Gal
litzin, from thy inspiration; and as L
have read of Gallitzin's trials, l easily
understood them, for human nature is
much the same today-or at least it
was twenty years ago-as it was with
Gallitzin one hundred years ago.
1T looked to me as though the whole
story was reproduced. Even in the es-
tablishment by some of the colonists
of q rival village, some of my colonists
actually tried the same thing, only 1
did not have the patience with them
that Gallitzin had with his, and l usu-
ally ended the troubles much quicker
than he did. Then, too, had another
advantage which Gallitzin had not.
When they were too obstreperous
kept away while Gallitzin lived right
in Loretto and had to meet the frown
every day. morning and evening.
Il am sure that he must have said
to them at times, as l often said to
mine: I may as we'll permit you at
once to curse me, for you will curse me
whether I permit you or not, but l only
announce to you that in five years you
will be blessing me- And true, when
l now go among them l sometimes ask:
Where are those who were scolding at
my name?' and they say they are not
to be found.
This idea of Catholic colonization is
one of the most fruitful THAT ever de
scended to the minds of Americans, and
Gallftzin was the pioneer of it.
''Then farewell to the statue of Gallit-
Yin for today. but the memory of Gal
litzin shall ever live deeply in my heart.
1t is a precious day, this one on which
l am permitted to make my pilgrimage
over these hills to see the descendants
of the old pioneers Of the Aileghenies
and TO witness the generosity Of the
children of Loretto in erecting this
statue to one of the greatest men that
the country of America. has ever seen
ana one of the greatest priests that
the Catholic Church OF America has
ever known.

CHAPLAIN AND ADMIRAL.
Father Reaney Gave Dewey a Paint
ing Obtained in Rome.

w. T. Dewey. a Montpelier, VT,
nephew of Admiral Dewey, tells an
interesting incident in connection with
/ the admiral and Father Reaney, chap
! lain of the Olympia, which eliminated
| after the flagship reached New York.
In the course of a recent interview Mr..
! Dewey said:
Speaking of presents to the admiral,
he has one ne received in Italy that he
prizes very much. The Catholic, chap
lain of the Olympia, the Rev. William
Henry Reaney, is a hearty admirer of
the admiral. When the Olympia ar
rived at Naples on its hOmeward voy-
age the chaplain was honored by an
invitation to visit Pope Leo XIII,
which he accepted.
Upon the chaplain's return to the
/ Olympia he brought with him a beau
tiful painting which had been presented
to him while he was the guest of the
Pope the painter of which has been
awarded a prize for his meritorious
work. This painting the chaplain pre-
senGed to Admiral Dewey as a token of
the high esteem in which he was held
by the chaplain.
When the Olympia arrived in New
York" continued Mr.. Dewey, Hagen
beck, the animal exhibitor, knowing the
admiral's fondness for pets, presented
to him fine lion cub. The admiral
was much pleased with the cub, but
his Chinese servants were in mortal
dread of it, and as the chaplain and the
cub soon bacene much attached one
to the other, they became constant COM
paniOns
The admiral noticed this preference
shown by the chaplain, and desiring to
return the compliment of his gift of
the painting, determined to present the
cub to him. One day While the admiral
and some of the members of his fam
lily We're in his cabin he sent for the
chaplain, who soon appeared with the
cub in his arms. After presenting the
animal to him the admiral asked the
chaplain what course of training he in
tended to pursue with the animal
Father Reaney replied that he should
name him Chichester, after the English
admiral who was so lion hearted in his
conduct at Manila after Dewey had
destroyed the Spanish fleet, and that
h would teach the young lion to be-
come good sailor and to be as kind to
others as vas Admiral Dewey to his
men. The sentiment was a pretty one
and was highly appreciated by the ad-
miral, as he was confident that it came
from an honest heart.

lose a single opportunity to make al
fusion to the broader aspects" of all
questions which are involving, promi-
nently today, the British policy in Ire
land, in Africa and in America as well.
1t is a matter Of sincere congratula-
ton that the Irish and Germans in
America, together with large element
of all other nationalities, are resolutely
and uncompromisinSly opposed to the
alliance, expressed or implied, which a
certain clique in America would bring
about.
As far as the Irish people in America
ar. concerned, they are practically a
unit in opposing an changing alliance
with England.
England, with her centuries of in
famous oppression, her greed for gold.
her blood-red history, shall never be-
guile the American people and mislead
them. as she has so frequently done to
other nations in the past.
Lei the politicians favor it if they
will: an alliance whose only motive
is plunder will not be sanctioned by the
American people.
