DEATH OF A PRELATE.; ..
Archbishop Hennessy Passes Away
from Earth.

Dubuque, Iowa, March 4.-Most Rev.
John Hennessy, first archbishop of Du-
buque, died to-day, "a years of age. In
March last the archbishop was stricken
with partial paralysis of the BRAIN
Though for days at the point of death,
he recovered, and was we'll until the
evening Of Feb. IS, when he was again
stricken. Friday night he was seized
with another stroke, and though at
PENDANTS expected death every moment,
he rallied slightly and when Archbishop
Ryan OF Philadelphia arrived this morn
ing he showed signs of recognition,
though unable to speak. He then began
to sink, and at 2 o'clock passed away
quietly and without a sign of pain.
Surrounding the bedside at the time
were: Archbishop Ryan, Monsignor
Ryan, Fathers Toomey, Coney and
Donlon, and the archbishop's brother
and sister. DR.. Slattery and four Sis
tiers of the Holy Ghost order were also
present. Prayers for the dead were read
by Mgr. Ryan and responded to by

In his address at Augsburg Semi
nary the other evening, Gov Lind la
mented the fact that England was do
ing its best to destroy two little repub-
lies in South Africa. He evoked a
laugh and applause from his sympa-
tlletic audience of Scandinavians when
he said it was not we'll to linger longer
on the Boer subject when there was an
other nation not very far distant that
was engaged in the same occupation as
England. He declared that when "a
piece of dirty work was to be done
that could be excused in no other man.
ner by the Mckinley administration it
was done in the name of the American
flag. With much feeling he then added:
Wherever the American flag stood for
government without the consent of the
governed it was nothing more than a
calico rag" He was enthusiastically
applauded.

gression," and with characteristic in
consistency he has now an army of Co.,
600 men shooting down "our wards" in
the Philippine islands because they re-
slst ''forcible annexation" and desire to
govern themselves in their own coun-
try
He wants to rule these people as
wards" thus putting them on a level
with the North American Indians. And
yet he denies there can be any imperial
ism in ruling these people against their
consent The Porto Ricans are willing
to be governed by the United States,
and yet Mr.. Mckinley cannot subscribe
to the theory that the constitution fol-
lows the flag The American people
will decide this year whether or not
they will sustain Mr.. Mckinley in the
attitude he has assumed toward the
people of these islands.
His evil genius, Cushman K. Davis,
OF Minnesota, is now trying to bolster
up bill which will extend onl y por-
ton of the constitution to Porto Rico.
He is largely responsible for the policy
pursued by the president in dealing
with Our foreign possessions. He is an
lmperialist and not republican, and
his ambition is to govern our island
possessions on the British colonial plan.
The people OF the United States who
love liberty and hate oppression will
not consent to have the Porto Ricans
and Filipinos governed after the MAIL
ner OF the American colonies by George
III. The charges made in the Declare.
ton of Independence against that
crazy monarch can be justly made by
the Filipinos against William McKin-
ley, as for example:
He has pundered our seas, ravaged
our coasts, burnt our towns and de-
stroyed the lives of our people.
He has transported large armies of
mercenaries to complete the works OF
death, desolation and tyranny, already
begun with circumstances of cruelty
and perfldy scarcely paralleled in the
most barbarous ages and totally I'M
worthy the head OF civilized nation"
William Mckinley and his support
ers are not willing to give these islands
any representation in congress, and yet
they deny that their policy has anything
imperialistic about it. They repudiate
the word imperialism" and the presi-
dent declares it is abhorrent to- the
American people. 1t is also abhorrent
to the Filipinos and Porto Ricans
whom Mr.. Mckinley would treat as
wards" of the nation and not as citi-
zens, now nor hereafter. 1t is as
wards" and not as citizens that he rec
commended congress to return the Porto
Ricans the receipts from customs duties
since the island was seized in the name
of humanity by his troops. The people
will deal justly by these islanders and
deprive this autocrat from Canton of
the power with which they invested him
in 1896.

ers present. Just as he died, the great
bell on the cathedral tolled notification
to the people of the city. The funera,
will occur Thursday morning. Arch
bishop Ryan of Philadelphia, who
preached the sermon when Mgr. Her
messy was made bishop, at his silver
jubilee, and again when he was made
archbishop, will pronounce the eulogy.
The body will lie in state at the cathe-
dral Wednesday. All the leading church
dignitaries will be here.
Mgr. Ryan will administer the do
cese until successor is appointed.
There are several candidates for arch
bishop, and it is intimated by promi-
nent churchmen that Archbishop Keane,
former rector of Washington university,
will be the man, should, the other arch
bishops recommend him to Rome.
Bishop Lenahan of Cheyenne is a
strong probability, while DR.. John Car
roll, president of St. Joseph's college,
Dubuque, is the almost unanimous
choice of the priests of the diocese.
Mgr. Ryan is also proposed, but he
probably would not accept because Of
age. The choice may not be made until
next fall.
Archbishop Hennessy was recognized
as one of the greatest orators and most
profound theologians in the Catholic
hierarchy, and because of his zeal in
educational matters has been named
THE apostle of the American Catholic
parochial school," His latest work IN
the cause of education was the founding
OF seminary in Dubuque designed -
be one of the largest in the country.
He was born in County Limerick,
Ireland, Aug. 20, 1926. In 1S47 he came
to America, going to Carondelet semi
nary, near St. Louis, where he COM
menced the study of theology, and was
ordained priest Nov. I, 1850. His first
mission was at New Madrid, Mo-, en-
bracing 5000 miles of territory, with
out single mile of railroad, and where
lie endured the prlvatIons OF pioneer.
In 1854 he was installed as professor of
dog1natic history at Carondelet and be-
came president in 1857. The next year
he went to Rome as representative of
Archbishop Kenrick. In 1860 he went
to ST. Joseph, Mo-, where he remained
until appointed bishop of Dubuque i.
1866. He was consecrated Sept. 80 of
that year by Archbishop Kenrick of ST.
Louis. His silver jubilee was celebrat-
ed with great pomp in 1891. He was
made archbishop on Sept. II, 1893.
Mgr. Satolli, then papal ablegate, and
Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore con-
Quoted the ceremonies. All the Ameri-
can archbishops except one, nearly ali
the bishops and upwards of 400 priests
and hundreds of leading Catholic lay
men of the country were present.

The Catholic church OF America has
lost one OF its most eminent dignita-
ries in the death OF Archbishop John
Hennessy of Dubuque, who was buried
last Thursday. He was one OF the
Fathers Of the Third Plenary council OF
Baltimore in 1854 and was considered
great theologian. He was an orator
OF remarkable ability. His address on
Daniel O'Connel, delivered in Du-
buque on the centennial anniversary OF
the Irish Liberator's birth in 1875, was
pronounced by Wendell Phillips one OF
the grandest orations delivered either in
ancient or modern times. The deceased
prelate was native of Limerick, Ire
land, and loved the land of his birth
with intense devotion. In company
with Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia
he visited Ireland last year. A sketch
Of him appears elsewhere in these COL
umns. May his soul rest in peace.

Says William O'Brien in the Irish
People: A vigorous effort is just now
being made to force the legislature to
place the teaching OF Irish on footing
OF equality, so far as practicable, with
the teaching OF English in the primary
schools OF this country, called by legal
irony National Schools" The only
thing in which the permanent commits
sioners OF primary education here have
been consistent is in being venomously
anti-national. To them the language,
like the religion, of the people has been
abhorrent as symbol OF distinct ma
tionality which they hated and made
every effort to efface Until recently,
the teaching of Irish in any circum-
stances in one of those so-called Ma
tional schools would have been treated
as breach of discipline savoring OF
treason.

Six hundred English school children

(Which would you be when you grow

to be Dom Paul, because he lust sits

THE PORTO RIcAN TARIFF. !,

1IeSloenl MCKINNEY is SplneleSS
politician. In his message he said:
Our plain duty is to abolish all Gus
toms tariffs between the United States
and Porto Rico, and give her products
Tree access to our markets" Instead OF
holding tenaciously to his opinion and
discharging his plain duty" as presi-
dent, he acquiesced in IS per cent tar
IF to placate the trusts. He got con-
gressmen to vote for the reduced duty
against the will OF their constituents in
stead of letting them alone and vetoing
the measure when it came before him
Tor his signature. He could easily ex-
crcise his prerogative in accordance
with section seven of the Constitution
Of the United States and defeat any
tariff bill passed by the house and SEN
ate, instead of trying to ride two horses
going in opposite directions and OF in
terfering with the members of the legis-
iative branch OF the government in fol-
lowing their own judgment and the
wishes of their constituents. 1t would
be we'll for Mckinley if he possessed
the backbone of Grover Cleveland. The
Republicans are handicapped by his va
cillating policy, and the country has
lost confidence in his craftsmanship
The great majority of the citizens OF
the United States, irrespective of party,
desire that Porto Rico shall be treated
like all of the States OF the Union. 1t
belongs to the United States or
it does not. If it belongs to the
United States, it should be governed
in accordance with American principles,
and the constitution should follow the
| flag into the island. The inhabitants
must be either citizens or subjects Of
this republic. Which shall they be?
President Mckinley is reported by
the Washington Post to have told call
ers at the White House that he was un-
able to subscribe to the theory that the
constitution follows the flag. He be-
licves, however, that trade follows it
wherever it goes, and he prefers trade
to the constitution. Last Saturday
night at banquet in New York, Mr..
Mckinley gushingly said: "The flag
has been sustained on distant seas and
islands by the men OF all parties and
sections and crceds and races and ma
tionalitics, and its stars arc only those
OF radiant hope to the remote peoples
over whom it floats" He dared no
body to haul down the flag wherever it
was raised, but went on to say there
can be no imperialism, that the people
of this republic are unanimously op.
posed to it and abhor it universally.
Instead OF saying that the people o
our lately acquired islands should have
self-governmcnt under the America,
dag, this man OF destiny" declared tina
century OF free government "has fit
ted the American people for the grea
} task OF lifting up and assisting to bet

has it decreased, and that enormously.
The loss is not accounted for by growth
in the British colonies either. Australia
has perhaps a million OF Catholics and
Canada two and a half millions. But
the French Canadian Catholics certain
ly do not owe their religion to the
British empires influence Omitting
them from the reckoning, Queen Vic
toria has fewer Catholics among her
subjects to-day than when she mounted
the throne.
This may we'll give food for serious
reflection, especially to those good peo-
pie who dream Of Anglo-Saxon Catho-
licity as an element OF the coming CEN
fury.

In his speech at the Robert Emmett
anniversary meeting in New York last
Sunday, w. Bourke Cochran paid his
respects to the Mckinley administration
for its attitude on the Anglo-Boer war.
When he said that If the Lord God OF
battles and of justice will uphold the
Beers SO that they may withstand their
enemies for eight months longer this
nation will show Enthusiastically its SEN
timents," there was the most vociferous
applause from the enthusiastic assem-
blage. He declared that this admins

A Minneapolis boy doing service for
Mckinley in the Philippines writes
home to the Times, saying in part: GA,
Guadalupe church the troops robbed
the altar, seized golden and silver can
dlesticks and cut the jewels from the
robes adjoining the statues. They even
opened the sepulchre within which dead
bodies of priests are Theoretically sealed
and piled high, tier upon tier. The
caskets were broken open, bodies
thrown to one side and the shrouds
searched for gold and jewels. The
church still remains in the same con-
dition and the stencil from the petrifed
dition and the stencil from the putrefed
bodies is awful"
Such barbarities are committed in the
name of humanity and Anglo-Saxon
civilization, and the sanctimonious
Methodist in the White House raises
his eyes to Heaven and thanks God for
the blessings in store for his Oriental

Despite the denial of Mckinley and
Hay that secret alliance exists be-
tween Washington and London, there
are thousands upon thousands OF
Americans who believe it actually ex-
lists. Europeans also believe it exists,
and that since the beginning of the
South African war this imperialistic adj
ministration OF ours has not observed
neutrality, but has given every aid and
comfort to England in a clandestine
manner.

Looking at the matter from an
American standpoint, we cannot blame
the legislature OF South Carolina for its
action on the Anglo-Boer war. The
Southern men would be ingrates did
they forget the friendship OF England
when it was really needed. The Nor
thern men, however, have no cause for
gratitude. England was the enemy of
the North when she was the friend of
the South. Her motive was selfish
one and was inspired by hatred for the
American republic, which she was
anxious to destroy to the best of her
ability. The Americans of the North
may forgive her enmity, but they will
never forget it as long as their history
is not falsifed in the public schools of
the country.

i A FIVE MINUTE SERMON.
By q Paulist on the First Sunday OF
Lent.

'Jesus was led by the Spirit into the
desert. st. Matt. Nv. i.
The imitation of Christ is the one es-
sential aim of Christian life, and if We
seek not to follow in the path He trod,
our Christianity is delusion and a lie.
To-day in particular, we are called
upon to give proof of the faith that is
in us by closer correspondence to the
life of self-denial and modification the
Divine Redeemer led, and unless we
give heed to this call Our claim to be
His disciples were but mockery in
deed. We must take up the cross; and,
Holy Church now determines for US
what it's weight shall be. Fasting and
abstinence, prayer and penance, are
commanded, and we are bound to obey.
And if we have the spirit OF Catholic.
faith, our obedience shall be cheerfully'
given. Do we not owe debt of love.
to the Son of God, who sacrificed Him
self for us? And how can we repay it
unless we make sacrifices for His sake?
The spirit, then with, which. should
enter upon our Lenten duties, is that
of generous self-sacri6ce for the love of
God, not a craven spirit of fear at the.
thought of bodily discomfort and NOR
LITIGATION. The most austere life is
sweet and easy when inspired by the
love of God, and the most difficult acts,
of self-denial are cheerfully performed
when prompted by the desire to initiate
the sufferings of Christ. The saints
kept ceaseless fast and vigil and were
happy withal. The martyrs, in the
midst of their terrible torments, en-
joyed a peace that surpasseth all I'M
Outstanding, and if generous Christian
motives actuate us, our fasts and our
abstinences, while they chasten the
body, shall soothe the soul, for as love
casteth out fear, peace banishes the
thought of pain.
Do we not, moreover, owe debt of
penance for our sins, and how shall We
redeem it save by suffering? 1t were
difficult to explain the exact relation
between sin and suffering, but certain
| it is the relation exists between them.
The reason of mankind has always
recognized this relation, and the Cross
of Jesus Christ is an eternal demonstra-
ton of it. 1t is fact of everyday OBJ
servation that the grossest natures are
relations between the soul and body in
purified and elevated by suffering. The
this life are so intimate that whatever
chastens the one serves to purify the
other. And, as the body is the instru-
ment of the passions OF the soul, so the
body is justly the instrument of the
souls fpenancc and publication. All
that is elevated in human life, and all
that is spiritual in human nature, comes
from the victory over the lower pas
sions of man; and all that is Christ-like
in the Christian soul comes from the
cruciixion of flesh and blood. Hence,
it is only by acts of self-denial that we
can purify the grossness of our nature,
and it is only by works of penance that
we can expatiate our sins. Sensuality
is the unclean spirit that can only be
cast out by fasting and prayer. Purif-
cation and expiation cannot be pur-
chased at any less cost than this.
