RELIGIOUS EDUCATION.
Address by Monsigaor Conaty, rector of
Catholic University.


Chicago, April "I1ntcring upon
the new century, the Catholic educa-
tional system in America must be pre-
pared to meet with difficulties that will
test its strength to the utmost. The
llniiication of the education under
state control has established n mighty
machine of seculnrizcd instruction.
which threatens to destroy private eff
fort either on the part of individuals
or the church. 1t is important to meet
lnlilcation by uniiication, to so
strengthen the Catholic educational
system that it may defend itself
against all attacks ana save the re-
ligious instruction of its people from
the dangers of non-religious ctluca-
ton"
Intense enthusiasm greeted this sig
niiicant declaration today at the open
ing of Il conference OF representatives
of Catholic colleges throughout the
United States. Tho speaker was the
highest official in the Catholic cdrcn-
fi"llal system in this country, DIR.
Thomas j. Conaty, rector OF the Cath
Ole university at Washington, d. G.,
and president of the National Associa-
ton OF Catholic Colleges.
entering into a general view of the
situation which presents ITSELF" said
Monsignor Connty, at is important to
realize the meaning of the facts which
face us. Among these facts must be
rcckoncd the state school system, with
its rapidly increasing high school ana
even college development, the tendency
t." 90 away with college by uniting the
high school to the university, the cs-
Enlistment of educational institutions
of all sorts endowed by private munif-
iccnce of non-Catholics ana attracting
Catholic students because these
schools have not the character of state
institutions, the tendency of the uni
vcrsitlcs to control the state schools.
to dictate the examination OF teach
crs ana to demand the university de-
gree or approval as a condition of an
pointlncnt."
Reference was made by the speaker
to what he construed to Ire efforts In
this direction, as maintained in the
schools of some of the large cities, and
as presented in the nOn-CatlOlic char
actcr of scientific publications, as also
that of many aids to public instruc-
ton
TO offset these conditions, said DR..
Conaty, the Catholic church spent last
year in the United States the sum of
$25,OOO.OOO on education chiefly in
parochinl schools, and exclusive of
what was spent in academic, collegiate
and university education.
Notwithstanding the serious de-
mands made upon her for church and
charitable development, she has under
her educational training over 1,OOO, 900
pupils. OF these about 10000 have re-
ccivcd collegiate instruction under her
directions.
Monsignor Conaty contended that a
most important issue in Catholic edu.
catiOnal work is in the development of

The business of the play requires her

lightfully awkward. She has put on a
long riding habit in order to become
accustomed to manipulate her court
train in the dance and is so much trou-
bled with 1t that finally she tucks 1t

ping off her arm and has to be perpetu-
ally replaced. and the episode is a cause
of much boisterous amusement.
One night in a great English manu-
featuring city she was playing the part
with even more than her usual verve.
She was lost in the assumed character
so thoroughly that il was real TO her,
and the ex-washerwoman, with her
mind harassed and worried by the try
ing conditions of her artificial court
life. instinctiyely returned to the habits
of her youth. In a moment of abstrac-

her arm, she instinctively began to
wiring it out. The response of the audi

was recorded in the actress mind and
has been repeated ever since.-Cosmo-

LIGHTNING OPENS CASKET.

The St. Louis Globe Democrat Of re-

that at the town OF Hanston, five
year-old daughter Of Samuel McPreaz
died, or seemed to die, Sunday morn

Monday. and on the way to the ceme-
terry the metallic casket was struck
by bolt of lightning and split open.
Thereupon to the amazement and con-
sternation OF the funeral party. the
little girl sat up and called for her
mother The horses were knocked
down but no other damage was done.
The little girl is in a fair way to re.
coyery. 1t IS believed she was in a
cataleptic state, from which the shock
of lightning reused her.
People who were in the funeral pro-
cession. tell many strange stories in
connection with the occurrence. Some
OF them say that just prior to the
flash OF lightning. peculiarly soft
mellow light appeared in the sky,

ence from sunlight as to attract at

that while the peculiar atmospheric
conditions were being discussed the
clap OF thunder and the flash OF light
ming riveted their attention on the
strange scene which followed.
1t is also said that the lightning,
after passing through the metallic
coffin, passed along the running gear

down struggled TO their feet. they

What is thought to be one of the
strangest features Of the remarkable
occurrence is that nobody was killed
or even seriously hurt by the light

trated since the return from the ceme-
terry, and almost hysterical at times,
and it is feared her mind may have
been affected.
