FAVORED BY A KING.
Church in Bardstown, KY, Has Gifts
of Louis Philinpe Of FRANCE.


of Louis Philippe of France.
Within the precincts of quaint old
Bardstown is situated one of the old
est Catholic church buildings in Ken
lucky, 1t was the first cathedral west
Of the Allegheny mountains and is
magnificent structure and is the only
house of worship in America that
boasts a bell presented by royalty. Tie
interior in the magnificence of its ap-
pcintments is not eXcelled by any
church in the south. 1t contains rare
paintings by the old masters, one alone
the altar piece-heing valued at $780,
G0C. This magnificent work of art is
the production of Antwerp artist, IAN
Bre. 1t depicts the crucifiXion and is
pronounced by cennoisseurs to be the
most splendid work of it's class in me
world. 1t is twenty-one feet in height
and twelve feet in width, and was Ore
scented to Father Flaget, the first Dish-
op Of Kentucky, by Louis Philippe,
king of France. Another rare paint
ing-now worth its weight in gold-is
The Martyrdom of st. Bartholomew"
by Van Dyke. This picture is cata-
logued in the list of the great artists
production and it's present location is
also noted. The numerous smaller
paintings which the church contains
were donations from the king of Italy.
But the most interesting feature Of
the old church is its bell. This, too.
was a gift from Louis Philippe. When
that unfortunate monarch was driven
from his throne in France he fled 20
Bardstown and sought the hospitality
of Bishop Flaget, whom he had known
in Europe. He was received with The
utmost kindness. and shortly after his
arrival, through the influence of The
bishop he was enabled to form a class
in French, which he taught in a little
building which is yet standing on st.
Joseph's college grounds. Philippe
was a grateful king and never forgot
the many kindnesses rendered him by
the good bishop. When he was re-
stored to his throne ne presented 90 the
church the painting above described,
together with the bell.
This bell was broken in 1887 and
was recast by Louisville bell founders.
The recasting was complete success,
and in order to retain for it its his
toric surroundings the same metal was
used.
The old bell is one of the most n'u-
steal in America and when lie at
mosphere is clear its tones can be dis
tinctly heard for ten miles,

CHILDHOOD.

Fair as a star, rare as a star.
The lows of the future lie,
To the eyes of a child, to the signs of a
child,
Heavenly far and high!
Fair as a dream, rare as a dream,
The hopes of a future sure
To the wondering child, to the blunderlng
child,
Trusting, and free, and pure!
Fair is the soul, rare is the soul
Who has kept, after youth is past,
All the art of the child, all the heart oil
the child,
Holding his faith at last.

friends were able-to do could heal his
grief.
1t happened one day that he was
passing the cathedral in Prague that
he heard, through the open door the
sweet melodies of the organ and choir,
and. attracted by them, without religi-
Gus feeling at all, he entered in.
The music ceased, and a venerable
preacher began to deliver a sermon on
the text, Come: unto Me. all We that

itself opened his SOUL and then and
there he became converted, and deter

A PRIESTS INVENTION,
Successfully Solves the Problem of
Writing bv Telegraph.

Writing by Telegraph.
Another invention has been added to
the already long list which reflects
the great scientific researches of sons
of Mother Church, who have given so
much to the world
TeIeautogra ply, or writing by tel
egraph, has been brought within
range of the practical in the very
strictest sense by Rev. Luigi Cerebo-
TAM. an Italian Jesuit priest. BY his
system messages can be dispatched
over a single wire instead of four,
which Elisha Gray's invention requires.
The message here faithfully repro
duced was sent over the Munich-Augs-
burg Munich wire quite recently, I'M
der the auspices of the Bavarian postal
authorities, who expressed their salts
faction with the experiments.
The principle of the new system
Lies in mechanical arrangement
whereby the motion of the TRANSCRIPT
ing pen results in two Enovements al
WAYS mathematically at right angles
to each other. Every point in the
writing area covered by the pen is
thereby exhibited by the lines before
mentioned. The apparatus, however,
so contrived that first, the transmit
ting pen is light and handy, and sec
ondly. that while there is only one
point in the writing area in which the
lines intersect, the movable point of
writing pencil can, by means of slides,
touch the whole area" The priests
invention is described as marvel of
simplicity and simply astounding in
the accuracy of its workings.

A CARDINALS ROMANCE.
How He Was Converted From Inf
delity Through Great Affection

High honors have lately been be-
slowed upon converts, one notable in
stance being the comforting of the car
dinalate upon Baron Won Skebensky
of Austria, a young man not yet 40
years old, who was brought into the
Church from atheism. His parents,
who were members of the Austrian
nobility, had reared him in entire dis
belief of Christianity, and he so con-
tinued during his early youth At this
time Baron Won Skebensky was be-
trothed to a beautiful and aristocratic
young girl, whom he loved with all his
heart
Shortly before the time appointed
for the marriage the young woman
died and the baron was left inconsol-

Origin of the stations of the Cross

The stations of the cross or as It
very often called, the way Of The
cross" is a devotional service which
dates back in its origin to the earliest
days of the church, when it became
general custom of Christians to observe
it in Jerusalem. AT that time the SCR
vice consisted in persons taking art in
it going from the court of Herod in
Jerusalem to the spot on Mount { al
vary where the crueifixion of Christ
took place. This custom continued
through the ages and it is sill in
vogue with the residents of the old
Jewish city, and is often participated
in by visitors from all parts Of the
world.
Those who travelled the ancient road
way made historic by the funeral pro-
cession 1900 years ago, say thai the
stones at the fourteen different places
where the march to the mountains was
interrupted. have been worn hollow by
the kneeling in prayer of countless
hosts of divine worshippers. The story
of this most pathetic part of the lie OF
Christ. with all its external devotion
and sorrewful reminders, was carried
to distant parts of the world oy
strangers who had seen it in Jerusa-
lem, and for all the centuries Chris

Holy City that they might participate
in the sad ceremony.
About 800 years ago the FRANCISCAN
Order of Priests established a monas-
terry in Jerusalem and undertook the
custody of the sacred places of the
Holy Land. Thus the several sta
tons" or spots where the journey up
Calvary's heights was interrupted
passed into their hands. II was then
that the service was undertaken ana
spread abroad as a general devotion,
and from that day until now 1t has
been cherished by devout Catholics In
every part of the globe as one of their
dearest PRAYERS

IA third disputant in the controversy
between the Milwood brothers was in
troduced last week. This was Mr..
Wilson, an old-fashion Presbyterian
clergyman, making a morning call
unon his brother cleric, James NlllWooa'
Holm Milwood Catholic asked the
newcomer to define his faith, and Mr..
Wilson did so, quoting from Dr. owen;
Professionalism is: /. What was re-
vealed unto the church by our Lord
and his apostles, and is the whole OF
that religion which the Lord doth and
will accent .. SO far as needed unto
faith. obedience, and salvation of the
church, what they taught, revealed ana
commanded is contained in the Scrip
lures of the New Testament, witnessed
unto and confirmed by the Old, 8. All
that is required, that we may please
God, and be accepted with Him, and
come to the eternal enjoyment Of Him,
is that we truly and sincerely believe
what is so revealed and taught, yield
ing sincere obedience unto what is
commanded in the Scriptures. 4. If
anything they (Protestants) teach be
found to deviate from them, if il (what
they teach) exceed in any instance
what is so taught and commanded, if it
be defective in the faith or the practice
of anything so revealed or commanded,
they are ready to renounce it." Then,
addressing his Catholic inquirer, he
said: What do you ask more clear,
brief. comprehensive and precise than
that?" To which John Milwood makes
reply in the words which open up this
weeks chapter,-Editor Intermountain

Why the Drum Was Silent.

NbdlLliloIe sum-
Here is a delicious story of the war
times that has an unmistakable air of
freshness and human interest.
The torn a nd tattered remnant of a
confederate regiment one day toward the
close of the war was lined up by its
colonel and told that the commanding
general was to pay a visit of inspec-
ton" on the following day. The soldiers
were admonished to do their prettiest."
Just brace up as though your clothes
were brand new uniforms and as though
you had the best on earth TO eat and
plenty OF il. We haven't any bugle left,
but Smith there has got drum, and it's
a plumb fine one-big as a barrel. Now,
Smith, when l give you the word tomor-
row you let her go for all she's worth. :
Thus spoke the colonel.
The next day came the general to lin
spect" the poor half-starved fighters and
as he appeared in the distance the colonel
gave order to Zine up" AS the COM
handing officer drew near the colonel
shouted: Now, Smith, let her goI and
turned to salute the general.
But not a note came from the big bar
rel drum.
ward the drummer and again shouted ..ls
order for music
But still the drum remained as mute
as the harp of Tara Hall fame.
Jnturlated at TINS open ulsopeulelce VI
orders and in the presence of his COM
manding officer, too, the colonel rode
down the line. and as he reached the re-
fractory drummer, cried out:
Say. Smith, what in - and - do
you mean by not beating that blankety-
blank drum
Il can't. colonel" whispered Smith.
THE old drum is full of chickens, and
half of EN- are for you
The colonel paused but moment be,
fore he shouted so that the general and
the soldiers might hear:
"All right Smith, but If you were too
sick to play the drum, why in thunder
didn't you say So?
