Pastoral !: Work IN the Dakstas II
HarIy DAYS.


Very Rev. George SheehaH, of ELK
ton. s. D., who is in Sioux City on
his way home from Ida Grove, Iowa,
has seen wonderful growth in the
Catholic church in South Dakota dur
Ing the % years he has been priest
there says the Sioux City Journal of
June 1S.
Dean Sheehan bears the distinction
Of being the Oldest priest in point
Of service in the state of South Dako-
ia. He was one of the eight priests
who took up the work In that unset
tied country when the late Right Rev.
Martin Marty was made bishop and
put in charge Of the diocese. Now he
is the only one of that party of pioneers
left there. He went to South Dakota
even before the veteran Mgr. f. X.
Lawler, who died few months ago.
AS priest Bishop Marty had done
considerable good work among the In
dams, and his efforts in behalf of
Christianity and the church being rec
ognized by his superiors. he was made
vicar apostolic Of Dakota. He looked
around for priests to assist him in the
work of building up the diocese, and
Father Sheehan was one of those who
volunteered to begin his work in the
priesthood in wild and almost uncivil-
lied country. Father Sheehan had re-

INFAMOUS DISPLAYS
They |arc \ Bloquently Denounced b
Bishop Spaldine.

Bishop Spalding, of Peoria, made a
strong protest recently against immor-
al exhibitions. 1--WE condemn" he
said, "the gladiatorial shows of the
Roman empire, sinking into the grave
of filth and blood; we do not tolerate
prize fights because such exhibitions
are held to be destructive of the gen
crous and humane sentiments which
make civilization possible. But the
worst cruelty is not found in the brutal
sports OF barbanans. or of those, in
civilized communities. in whom the
feeling of humanity has never been de-
yeloped; 1T is found in the public dis
play of a low and effeminate sensual
ity. which destroys innocence, mocks
at holy shame, robs woman of honor
and sacredness, desecrates the sanctity
of the home, and brands whole COM
munity with the stigma of infamy.
Republics live by virtue, they perish
when virtue becomes name, and the
greedy and licentious are permitted to
pander to the worst passions of the
human heart. When men cease to re-
spect themselves, no institution, how
ever sacred, seems to them worthy of
honor or preservation. When the cor
ruptors Of the morals of the people,
when the violators of law carry on
their nefarious business with i'm
punity and profit, there is decadence,
there is menace Of ruin and destruction.
Shall we give our money willingly and
lavishly to educate the young, to re-
press and punish crime. and then give
1t also to foster the vices which are the
nurseries Of crime? Shall we import
the lascivious and obscene exhibitions
OF Asia and Africa to enervate our PEG.
pie, and to make them incapable of
any manly ambition or virtue If the
providing of public amusements were
turned over to panders. harlots, gamb-
lers and thieves. would not the first
thing to occur to them be to bring
some of the infamous displays which
have made our street fair and corn
festival curse and an approbrium?
Shall the government make the diffu-
sion of obscene literature crime, and
shall the shameless exhibition of OBJ
scenity meet with no rebuke?
shall men who are given up to n
reprobate sense, who are purveyors for
the most abiect of vices. tell us that
only prudes or hypocrites can find
fault with the outrages they commit
against all the decencies of life?
"What is the pretext with which

ty of the church may therefore be in

ity of the church may therefore be in
ferred.
ut has been objected" says the
bishop, chat the nicely and refinement
introduced at St. Demands will tend
to make its young men effeminate and
less prepared to endure the hard reali-
ties Of missionary life. My experience
has satisfied me that the finely Gull
tured and trained student is the one Of
which to make a hero. It is your
coarse nature that grovels in selfish
ness and low ways. The latter never
rises to the sublime dignity of the
priesthood, nor to the fearful response
bnity Of its sacred obligation"
Two of the most interesting and life
like pictures of Woodworking priests
career are Yoes de Querdec's Letters
Of Country Vicar" and Father Shee-
hams "My New Citrate" In the latter
the old pastor, Father Dan, thus opens
the story by relating how he once
asked:
"What can a bishop do with a parish
priest? He's independent Of him."
ut was not grammatical and it was
not respectful" the writer goes on.
"But the bad grammar and the imperti-
hence were carried to his lordship, and
he answered:
"'What can do? can send him a
curate who will break his heart in six
months.'"
That is the system in Ireland, but
the boot seems to be on the other foot
here, as many a young priest just from
the seminary has soon discovered. Not
all his woes come from the seminary
ideals complained Of above. When he
gets out on the mission he has the pas
tors household to deal with. Many
men, many minds holds as well among
the clerics as it does in Lay circles.
Some people have queer ideas about diet
and viands, and as the pastor is head
of the house his whims rule.
And then there's the housekeeper!
Who that has had any dealings with
the rectory and does not know the ter
rors she inspires! 1t has long been
suggested that something in the nature
of the ancient order Of deaconnesses
ought to be revived to bring about a
reform of priests housekeepers.
Then chapter might be written Of
how his smallest faults are conned and
he is passed along, asked for and re-
jected, by the diocesan curia. No won
der so many Of him die young.

Soldiers Ten to One.

Go! faunt abroad your glory, and sing
your songs aloud,
And wave your pirate banner that vet
will be your shroud,
And tell the world your forces were
brilliant, brave, and true
The Tommy decked in scarlet, the
Handy Man in blue
And count your noble bead-ron from
Drake to Wellington
Because you beat the Dutchman with
soldiers ten to one!
The world looks on in scorn!-the world
looks on amazed!
You cannot lay the Frankenstein your
robber folly raised!
The bully Of the nations!-the ruler of
the seas
A few embattled farmers have hum
bled to her knees.
Mavrone! your proudest boast is-when
all is said and done
You beat the glorious Dutchman with
soldiers ten to one!
"The mills of God grind slowly!-the
mills Of God grind small!"
To nations, as to units, there comes q
time for all
The grim and great accounting, when
in the balance weighed
The freeman's rags shall far outshine
your cloth Of gold brocade!
What boots it in that awful hour,
meath Gods eternal sun,
Lang syne you beat the Dutchman
with soldiers ten to one?
And yet, perchance the Master, Who
rules the earth and sun,
May one day say, ''Thy time has come
thy earthly race is run!
The wronged and plundered nations
outstrip thee in the race,
With earthly empires vanished, 1 bid
thee take thy placer
God grant the "Celtic fringes" shall
charge your legions home,
What time the ranks Of freedom DER
throw the Saxon Rome!

inaries in Ireland and Montreal, and
had just been ordained into the priest
hood by Right Rev. John Hennessy,
bishop of Dubuque.
Father Sheehan's first charge was at
Yankton. He had q number Of other
missions to take care of. Since then
he has had charges in various parts of
the state, including Mitchell, Sioux
Falls and Hurley. At Elkton he is
pastor Of the Church of Our Lady of
Good Counsel
He was sent to Elkton few years
ago to rebuild convent which had
burned down. This convent formerly
was in charge of the Benedictine Sis
tiers, who now conduct st. Vincent's
Young Ladies' Home in Sioux City.
After the fire they left South Dakota.
The convent has been rebuilt and now
is in charge Of the Presentation Sis
tiers. Besides his church at Elkto1l,
Dean Sheehan has charge of missions
at Bookings, Aurora and White.
''Well do remember when we had
to suffer many hardships in order to
carry out the duties of our office as
priests" remarked Dean Sheehan in a
reminiscent mood. "My duties were
not confined to one vicinity nor even
to one state. had to make visits to
Montana and Wyoming. There were
no railroads in that country then, and
we Travelled either on horseback or be-
hind a yoke of oxen. Travellers across
the plains had to do battle with many
heavy storm, but the inclemency Of
the weather was not the only danger
against which we had to guard. Prai-
rle fires were common then. Never did
start on long journey without fill
ing my pockets with matches with
which to light rival fires. Upon vari-
GUS occasions such procedure was the
only thing that saved my life.
Hungry wolves also infested the
prairies, and while in one pocket car
ried the sacraments of the church, in
another l carried revolver to shoot
the wild animals which Mt different
times interfered with me on nv Jour
neys. In those days there were no
grand churches and no palatial par
sonages, and it was reasonably well
assured that the priest who took up
such duties as they were called upon
to perform in the Dakotas in those
days, did it for other reasons than
those Of personal comfort or gain.
"Since then I have been pleased to
see South Dakota become well settled
with prosperous citizens. The church
and the school has supplanted the Ill
dian wigwam, and the prairies are net
ted with railroad lines The Catholic
church is in a prosperous condition, and
it's influence is spreading constantly
under the wise guidance and direction
of our good bishop, Right Rev. Thomas
O'Gorman."
Dean Sheehan spent Sunday at Ida
Grove, where he assisted in the dedica-
ton Of Rev. James Kelly's new church,
which he describes as being one Of the
finest in the state. Very Rev. T. ,.
O'Connor of Carroll, conducted the
dedicntory exercises. Dean Sheehan
was the cplebrant of the solemn hiuh
mass. The sermon was preached by
Jesuit priest from Omaha. Right Rev.
Thomas O'Gorman, bishop of Sioux
Falls, was to have been present, but he
was called to the bedside of the Right
Rev. John 3. Cotter, bishop Of Winona,
