.clares a truth to be believed by the
whole church on other grounds than
his infallible authority; else he might
invincibly lead the faithful into error.
That the Pope, in the canonization of
the saints, wishes to use his supreme
authority and to impose the obligation
of assent on the faithful is manifest
from the form of words used in the
bulls of canonization, and certainly it
would be rash, to say the least, to as
sert that the church. or the pope, could
be deceived or could mislead the faith
full in a matter of such vital import
ance for the glory of God and the SAL
walton of men. If the possibility of
error were admitted in this case, there
would be absolutely no guarantee for
the purity of the church's worship; the
church or the pope could prescribe a
false form of worship, which is con-
trary to the universal belief of the
church.
1T is manifest that the infaIibility
of the church in the canonization Of
the saints is not confined to those
cases in which the strict canonical pro
cess prescribed by modern usage has
been instituted. 1t extends also TO
those that have been universally ven
Grated as saints in the church before
this process was introduced. For the
universal church, in its uniform teach
ing and practice. has the same prerog-
ative of infallibility as the pope or a
general council. If, therefore, a saint
is found to have been venerated in the
whole church unanimously, before the
end of the tenth century. when the
present procedure of canonizat ton was
introduced, such must be regarded as
saints no less than those canoni2ed by
this special process. '-SaCeTdos.

cANoNIzATIoN OF SAINTS.
Question as to Pope's Infallibility in
the Matter Answered.

A Catholic priest was recently asked
to say if the Pope was infalltble when
he declared men or women Of holy
lives to be in heaven. and he gave the
following answer, which was written
some years ago by a distinguished
Jesuit, Father Conway: he question
arises whether the church-that is. the
Pope--iS infallible in the canonsaton of
the saints, viz, whether it is infallibilitv
true that those who are solemnly de-
clared saints, and whose veneration is
prescribed for the whole church. are
really in the enjoyment of eternal
glory, There is question of the canon

beatification. of the servants of God.
nor of the liberation of the local cultus
Of certain persons who departed this
life in the reputation of exalted sane
tity, but Of their solemn proposition by
the Pope for universal veneration.
Thus formulated. the query is gener-
ally answered by theologians in the af-
firmative; and the contrary opinion
may be said to be obsolete In truly
Catholic schools. Pope Benedict XIV.
says that to deny the infallibility of
the Pope in the canoniation of the
servants of God would be. 'if NOT
heretical, at least rash, and an oc
casion of scandal to the entire church.
The reason is obvious. In the can

The Sign of the Cross.

The day of the famous battle of Bull
Rum during the Civil war, the Confed-
crate general, Kirby Smith, with
his division. arrived too late to
know the password. Foreseeing
that if he advanced he would be eX-
posed to the fire of his own party. he
asked if any man was willing to sac
ritice his life.
youth left the ranks.
You will be killed"
Yes, general"
Therefore, Smith wrote on bit of
paper:
Send me the password. General
Smith"
He gave the note to the soldier, say
ing to himself at the same time:
Should this messenger be killed they
will find this paper upon him"
Having reached the outposts, the
young soldier was challenged:
Who goes there?"
"a friend
Give the sign"
He advanced in silence, all the guns
being pointed at him. Quickly he
makes the sign of the cross and lifts
his hand to heaven.
The sign of the Catholic soldier rec
ommending himself TO God was the
sign that the Catholic General Beaure-
gard had given in the morning to his
army.
Here is another proof that the sign
of the cross is protecting.

on that point. In a letter to the editor

ITO my mind, every dollar spent in

it is Of immense value to the parish
where the help is given, through the
intelligent and wholesome interest in
all things Catholic, which the truly
Catholic paper never fails to create,

should look at this matter of patron

thus expended brings good return.

further evidence on this point in the

We are to have a Catholic boys bri-
brigade for Cork on lines similar to
those which exist in Dublin. The in
itial step was taken on Monday night.
and already its success is assured. See
ing the great need for such an organ
ization. the Jealous Capuchin fathers,
with the cordial approval of his lord
ship the bishop, have taken the scheme
in hands, and with the hearty and
practical cooperation of the members
of the ST. Vincent de Paul society, the
scope of the brigade is destined to
widely extend in a very brief period OF
time. The chief aim Of the brigade will
be to afford healthy amusement to
very deserving class of boys, as well as
to impart useful instruction of relig-
ious and secular character by COM
petent teachers. A higher or more
praiseworthy motive could not well be
conceived, and we wish the good Ca
puchin fathers and their willing assist
ants every success in their great work
of saving youths, whose lot is cast in
unsavory quarters, from falling into
evil habits which their very environ
nlents suggest.
