ST. PATRICK AND'THE IRISH.

With this issue of The Intermountail
and Colorado Catholic we Gel
citrate the glorious anniversary of thu
Apostle of Ireland; glorious in tina
with each succeeding year the day Il
observed by Irishmen and their children
with no apparent change of heart OF
lack of patriotic enthusiasm. Every
/ where throughout the world, on land
and sea, wherever the sons and daugh-
! tiers of Erin are congregated, there, IN
some fitting way, will be shown that
! love and loyalty for the fatherland that
: is peculiarly in the Irish character. 1t
is indeed an innate. worthless Irishman
in whose breast the occasion does not in
spire the deep and splendid feeling of
kindred; pride of race and country and
tender memories of the old land.
1t is fitting that the memory of St.
Patrick should be kept alive. The
name is often referred to with sneers
and derision by unknowing persons
and not infEequently by a thoughtless
and would-be funny class of Irishmen
but nevertheless the great Apostle
left the imprint of his character and
his work on the people and the country,
and his name will endure for all time.
So sweeping and lasting was his civil
lizing and Outstanding influence that
the chief characteristic of the Irish to-
day is their Faith; strong, deep-rooted,
imperishable. Throughout all the years
that have interviewed since Patrick's
time, years of famine, bloodshed and
death. the seeds that he planted have
continued to take root and spread.
The story of Ireland's suffering for
the faith is one of sorrow and pathos:
a story that is read with tears and
emotion.
Time and again has England thought
to rob Ireland of this priceless heri-
tage, and though she has stolen her
lands and fortunes, she has always
failed in crushing out the faith of which
Patrick was the father Neither by
bayonet, torture nor starvation, could
this end be accomplished. The price
upon the head of the priest or the viii
lage schoolmaster was always forth
coming, but through rivers of blood
waded the brave and fearless sons of |
the Apostle, carrying his banner on
high and planting it on every hilltop. |
Even during the Reformation. So |
called, England, neither by coercing or
could hoodwink Ireland into
up her faith, but on the other
hand, the harder the pressure the more
she chung to the teachings
and doctrines of her Apostle ireland.
Keen of observation, could readily dis
-lnguish between a Church built upon
IN immovable rock and human estab-
lshment resting upon shifting sand.
lreland's chief glory is indeed her
aith.

THE STAGE AND THE CHURCH.

Mr. Augustin Daily, the gifted play
wright, represents a type of the intel
ligent layman who, in his sphere, is
doing very remarkable work for the adj
vance of the Church. The Catholic
World Magazine for March publishes
the story of the ''Daly Bible" While
conducting a first-class theatre on the
highest ethical principles, Mr.. DAILY
utilized his leisure to prepare this won-
derful Bible which, in its magnificence,
reminds one of the days of the Medici.
The article says of the man and his
work:
The keystone to the remarkable book
collection of the late Mr. Augustin Daily
is the Douai Bible. The story of how
the gifted playwright and master stage
manager extended, at a cost of SIS, 600,
the original edition of one volume to
forty-two folio volumes by the inser-
ton of more than 5000 rare prints, en-
cravings, etehings, water-colors and
mezzotints, recalls the munificence of
the Medicis, and is refreshing evidence
Of the deep religious feeling of the man
whose lifework has left indelible i'm
preston not only upon the artistic
growth Of New York, but upon the en-
tire country. 1t is less than a year
since Augustin Daily passed to his re-
ward, and the public has yet to waken
TO a true estimate of what he effected
through his plays and his theatres for
art and morals. 1t was his ambition to
make the playhouse the handmade of
the pulpit. For more than thirty years
Mr. Days playhouse was, in the homes
Of conservative culture, the synonyme
Of all that is clean, wholesome, and
uplifting in the world of entertain

Before st. Patrick came to ireland
she was an enlightened and powerful
nation. Her form of government bore
the impress of superior genius. and. in
her civilization, she was fully a match
for Greece and Rome in their palmv
days. Paganism was the onlv stain
upon her escutcheon, but as soon as her
apostle appeared Christianity bloomed
IKE rose under the influence of a
southern sun. His progress throughout
the Iand was that of a conquering hero
ana the fire enkindled by him at Tara
was never extinguished. He found Ire
lana pagan, and he left her entirely
Christian. Converts were made. priests
ordained and bishops consecrated
Churches, monasteries and schools Gov
cred the land, and the whole nation pre-
sented the spectacle of a vast hive of
sanctity and learning. For 800 wears
the Irish schools were so famous that
students fiocked there in great num-
bers, and Irish apostles went to MANY
lands.

A CARD FROM BISHOP SEAMAN

1 feel it my duty to protect Catholics
and the public generally from fraud
and imposition by notifying them from
time to time that no person bearing the
name and garb of a priest or sister or
any one else is authorized or permitted
to solicit or collect in this diocese for
any purpose whatever connected with
the Catholic church without having
from me permission in writing bearing
my seal and signature. Should any one
be found engaged in doing this unlaw
full work of collecting without such
document. he or she, as the case may
be, should be regarded by ali as a fraud
and an imposter L. SEAMAN,

fact is true. Reptile life can't exist in

following account of the affair:
St Patrick had retired into a seclrd-

in this solitude he was severely tempt

SEPARATE-COACH

Thus Declares Through

IBy the Associated Press.

Washington, ID. c., Dec. 3.-The Ken
lucky state law requiring railroad
in that state to provide sep

was made The SUBJECT Of an opinion in
the United States Supreme court to-day.
Justice Brown said there is sufficient
compliance with the law if separate
coach for local colored passengers is
attached to the train while passing
through the state. Justice Harlan dis
sented, stating his opinion to be that
the law is an interference with inter-
state commerce and also taking the
position that the Kentucky legislature
has no right to classify citizens by col
or in railway coaches.
We cannot agree with Judge
Browns opinion, but think that
Judge Harlan dissenting is the
correct principal upon which rest
human rights. The student OF
Legal history will remember

PRESIDENTS ,..-n.
MESSAGE.

The annual communication
from the president to the national
house of the American Congress
was submitted to the last session
of the 56th Congress last Monday.
1t was very lengthy, containing
more then 10000 words. The un-
usual length was due to the fact
that so many new questions aris-
ing since the last communication,
relating to our new possessions
in the Pacific Ocean and the
Chinese trouble, togather with
the necessary mention Of the va
rious departmental branches, adds
greatly to the extra length. 1t
is wise courageous, manly plain
document, stating the true con-
ditions of our country and its
marvellous progress and widening
influences over other nations,
He also deplored the recent lynch
ing, in every form and under any
condition, AMI denounced the
method. He says, our courts and
not mobs must punish the offend
ers. The message speaks in
glowing terms of our foreign
commercial relation with other
countries and our international
reciprosity relation with countries
The document itself is worth ill
ing away as a complete record OF
our nation for the past twelve
months, and will no doubt be fa1
reaching, satisfying all homes
Americans that the wise policy
pursued by the Republican party
is the best course that can b'
taken at present.
