He began with a discussion on the
Church. He then explained what
sion as practiced by the Catholic
Churcuh. He then explained what
Confession" really is, and the va
rious requisites for a good confession.
After this Father Robert passed on
the scriptural proofs that the sacra-
ment of penance was divinely insti-
tuted. From the Protestant Bible he
quoted several passages which were de-
cidedly convincing. In every particu-
lar the lecture was a success.
Father Robert is an excellent MARIA
tor and told many amusing stories.
which added interest to his discourse
and mingled harmonously with his
more solemn and serious thoughts on
the grand subject of the confessional
The music was particularly good. Miss
Murphy sang the "Veni Creator and a
hymn to the Sacred HEARTBEAT the ben
ediction Mr.. Sayre sank 20 Salutaris."

ANACONDA.

For the first time in the history of
the church in Anaconda Bishop Bron-
del celebrated Pontifical High Mass at
ST Paul's Catholic church yesterday
morning The occasion was a me-
morable one for the Catholics of the
city. The bishop also administered the
rite of confirmation to ten boys, fifteen
girls and three adults.
The great services of the day began
at 1920 a. m. and lasted until about l
o'clock First, the procession was
formed at the pastoral residence. 1t
was led by cross bearer and candle
bearers and acolytes. Following them
came those who were to be confirmed
and then the clergy, the bishop last
of all.
The Pontifical Mass. of course, was
an imposing and solemn service. 1t
was made more beautiful by the SPLEEN
did music. The full choir. under the
direction of DR.. Spelman, rendered
Sneckert's Mass. The bishop preached
an elOquently and scholarly sermon, his
subject being Ten Reasons Why |
Believe i'm the Catholic Church" 1t
was-s.ot addressed solely to those about
to be confirmed, but TO the entire con-
gregation, which was one of the larg-
est ever assembled in st. Pauls. After
Mass came the confirmation services.
Before the service was over the
bishop made an announcement that
was pleasing both to the pastor and
the congregation. 1t was that as soon
as possible he proposes to send an
assistant priest to st. PauIs.
The bishop has been in the city since
Wednesday of last week. During his
stay he has visited and inspected both

GREAT FALLS.
Foundation For New Church Laid
Talk With Father Pauwelyn.

Two priests are now administering TO
the spiritual needs of the Catholic par
ish at St. AIMS in this city. Several
months ago Father Pauwelyn, who Mas
been stationed at different parishes in
Montana. was placed in charge of the
local parish. Recently he has been al
lowed an assistant. Father Mccormick,
from Ireland, who was ordained last
June, is the assistant. The parish duties
keep both particularly busy. Regular
ly every Sunday four masses are cele-
brated by the priests in turn. one
mass is celebrated at the hospital and
two for elders and one for children at
the church. The church is thus filled
up and cleared several times each
! SUNDAY. each time with different peo-
| pie. so that all the congregation is ac-
! commodated.
The church structure, which of good
size. is far too small to accommodate
J the growing congregation. a new
church, and a handsome one, is to be
| built as rapidly as possible. Plans
have been drawn and the foundations
have been laid. Work on the super
structure is to be pushed along just as
! fast as the money can be raised, and
no faster, for Bishop Brondel is OPP
posed to debt.
A cozy parsonage adjoining the
church has been taStetuIly ana COM
fortably fitted up and furnished, and
there Father Pauwelyn and his assist
ant make their home. Seated in his
cozy parlor. between puffs of his cigar.
Father. Pauwelyn chatted pleasantly
with the Standard reporter.
Great Falls has a large church con-
gregation." said he, and most cos
mopolitan one. People are here from
all quarters of the globe. Many of
those from foreign countries cannot
speak English we'll, though their chill
dren are learning rapidly. 1t is there
fore necessary that a priest here should
be something of a linguist. My ability
to speak five or six languages helps
me wonderfully in my work. My only
regret is that 1 do not know more Ian
guages.
There are nearly 1000 Slavs here,
who are very anxious for a priest. One
who can speak their language Will
probably be sent here before long.
The funeral of Mrs. Marceline E.
Brady, wife of Thomas E. Brady, took
place Sunday. a special meeting of
the Great Falls Bar association was
held. Practically all the members We're
present when Judge Leslie called the
meeting to order. Resolutions were
adopted conveying the sympathy of the
association members to Attorney Brady
and it was decided that the association
attend the funeral in a body. A beau
iful floral wreath has been ordered BY
the association.

Features Proposed For Festival In
Aid of st. Ignatius Church.


The committee on arrangements of the
proposed festival to be given for the ben
eft of St. Ignatius' church report every
thing most progressive along every line.
Besides the general custom and ways OF
conducting the like entertainments IN tHe
way of assuring success there are con
nected with this one means which, Wne'i
handled rightly, must prove N aIuaolT :
aid in it's way. There are Il number oil
contests between persons who claim per
sonal skill and faculty along this inc.
The first and foremost may be men
toned the contest for conductor sliNg'
lantern. The popular contestant are "
Garrett, conductor on the Denver X tslo
Grande railroad, and his opponent in the
case is j. H. Mcdonald of the Santa re
railroad The wide acqualntance anu
popularity of these gentlemen are sur
ficient to guarantee a lively race.
The second contest is that of a gold
headed cane to be awarded TO the most
and the steel works. Joseph Otsonki
holds the fort at the first named lnStl-
tuition, while w. f. Mudd represents the
latter.
A handsome sideboard is being, con con,
tested for by Mesdames West and VIII
Neither are the little folks left out, as
the little Misses May Arnold and Anna
Spencer are in the race for an elegant
childs doll.
Another contest that has sprung up is
that of Masters Johnnie Campbell and
Alphonso Weile for a suit of clothes.
Many of the interesting features in
connection with the proposed entertain
ment will be mentioned later, which, In
connection with the above, will have
ample time to be worked to advantage.
especially since the entertainment Will
not be given until toward the end OF the
present month.
This festival will be given in the Board
of Trade hall and will begin on Tuesday
evening, Nov. 26, and it does not. as
some are inclined to believe, take place
this present week-more still, all the con-
connected with and will figure both so
cially and materially in st. Ignatius, fes-
tival, which will open its doors on Tues
day, the 18th, and continue to Saturday,
inclusive, of the same week. The com
mittee on arrangements has mapped out
this weeks work, which is not inConsld-
cradle, and as the time shortens will be
energetically pushed to successful
finish.
Wednesday night at Board of Trade
hall the second annual bazaar of st.
Bonifice church was opened. 1t will
continue four days and it is promised
that former efforts in this line will be
eclipsed.
F. r. McAliney delivered the opening
address on the first night there was
a number of small raffies. There VIII
be three contests for prizes and dane
ing will be the principal amusements.
Elaborate preparations have been made
to make the affair, success and 1t is
expected that the capacity of the hall
will be taxed.
