a Most Just Decision.

A press dispatch from Rochester. N.
Y, announces that Justice Dunwell of
the supreme court has handed down a
decision affirming the legality of the
payment of salaries to nuns teaching in
asyiums An A. P. A. by the name Of
James a. Sargent thought he saw a
chance of crippling financially the good
work the nuns We're engaged in, and
applled for a permanent injunction
against the payment by the city of the
salaries received by the Sisters who
teach at st. Mary's Catholic Orphan
Boys asylum. The intention was to
force the Sisters TO desist from their
good work through the lack of finan-
cial means TO carry it on

THE NEW YEAR.

Make it a glad one, Thou dear Lord,
To whom the years belong,
Make il a happy year, all crowned
With love and praise and song.
Fill 1t, yea, let IT overflow
With loving gifts from Thee,
And, best OF all, dear, patient Lord,
A grateful heart would be.
A heart to thank Thee for the gift
or each new year Of life,
A heart TO trust the hand which sends
Each JOY or care to strife.
A heart 10 pray (and to believe
That Thou dost answer prayer,
A heart to hope a heart to love,
A heart to keep and share,
o tender Christ, bless Thou this year!
Bless Thou its dawn, and bless
Its noontide and its evening, Lord,
And let each heart confess,
As days and weeks and months go by
To help the year grow old,
That of Thy glory, King of Kings,
The half not yet is told!

Jects vital to the interests of humane

appreciate the immensity Of the task
achieved by Leo XIII during the last
twenty-three years. The teachings of
the Pontiff are contained in his en-
cylical letters, his other less formal
letters. and the allocutions he has from
time TO time delivered by word of
mouth. Among the subjects which he
has spoken of and which have occuoied
minds in Europe and America are the
Church and its constitution as uerfect
and Independent society. the origin OF
power and the authority of laws in the

Locked Out of Church.

London, Dec. 3O.-The island of
Lewes has been the scene of serious
religious riots, arising from the union
of the Free and the United churches
of Scotland. The islanders refused to
countenance the alliance, and when the
minister at Ness Joined the United
church they locked him out of his
church.
A strong force of police was sent
from the mainland to open the DOORS
whereupon the islanders congregated
and, throwing volleys of stones at the
constables, drove them inside the build
ing and bombarded them with rocks
until they capitulated and agreed to
leave the island. Every member Of the
police detachment was more or less
seriously wounded
1t is probable that a detachment of
troops will be sent to subdue the riot

THE KArsER's DISCOVERY.
Emperor of Germany a Descendant of
ST. Elizabeth of Hungary.

F'The Emperor OF Germany says the
Northwest Review, has discovered
quite lately. thanks to the researches
of Stephant Michaelowitz. genealogist
of Budapest, that he lis descended from
Queen Elizabeth of Hungary, who was
canonized by the Pope during the Mid
die Ages The tardiness of this discov-
cry proves the disadvantage of not
knowing anything about Catholic lit
erature. Protestants like the kaiser
are necessarily shut out from all that
is best in the literature of mankind.
Catholics have been aware of VIII
helms Elizabethan origin ever since
they knew on the one hand that he is
descended from the houses of Prussia
and Hanover, and ever since they read.
on the other hand, in Montalembert's
Life of Elizabeth of Hungary that
the houses of Prussia and Hanover,
with about thirty other royal houses.
are descended from-Henry l of Hesse,
grandson of St Elizabeth Montalem-
bert's work, first published in 1916, is
as famous among Catholics Of every
tongue as Boswelrs Life of Johnson is
among English-reading people. The
only difference is that the former is
much better written and infinitely more
learned -

TIE WORK OF A POPE.
Why Bigots Refused to Adopt the
Greoorian Calendar.

Hre0or1an calendar.
In connection with the approach of a
new year it may be of interest to re-
call the fact that it is not so long-only
century and a half-since the new
year in England began on March 25,
instead of Jan. 1. That was simply and
solely through the bigotry of the Eng
llsh. who for nearly two centuries re-
fused to adopt the Gregorian calendar
because it was the work of a Pope.
To correct the error of the Julian sys-
tenn, which in the sixteenth century
mad come to cause what may be called
a shortage of ten days, Pope Gregory
XIII, after careful examination of the
whole subject and thorough reform
of the calendar, issued a brief in 1882
directing that the day following the
feast of st. Francis in that year, that
is the 9Th of October, should be reck-
oned as the 18th of that month. The
new system was Immediately adopted
By all the Catholic countries. but in
england hatred OF "Popery" prevented
its adoption until 1852, when it
was found that the shortage was eleven
days instead of ten, and in that year
an act of parliament was passed or
dering that the Sd of September Q752)
should be Teckoned the 14th. AT the
same time the commencement of the
legal year was made Jan. 1, instead of
MarQhf %.
The tchange led to rioting in many
places in England. The mobs objected
TO the Pope's new year, and one of
their cries in London was. Give rs
back our eleven days" That was Brit
ish popular Protestant enlightenment
a century and half ago.-Freeman

aEND JUsTIFIEs THE MEANS, !,
Charge Against JesUits to be Inves-
tigated by a Committee.

For Catholics, of course, the charge
so frequently made against the Jesuits
by their enemies that they hold that
the end justifies the means has scarce
ly an academic interest, says the Cath
olic Times of London. They know we'll
that accusations of this type are pre-
ferred against the members of the dis
tinguished order not because there are
any real grounds for them, but because
the Jesuits are formidable champions
Of Catholic doctrine. But there are, no
doubt, many simple Protestants who
think their leaders are sincere when
they put forward the charge. In their
interest the investigation for which ar
rangements are being made by the
Referee" and Father Thurston, S. J.,
will be of some value. The question
whether it is a doctrine Of the Jesuits
that the end justifies the means has
been debated in the pages of that pa
per by a writer styled Merlin" and
Father Thurston, with the result that
a committee of three Catholics and
three PrOtestants are to examine the
case dispassionately 1t is worthy of
note that as the author of a paper in
the Month informs US, the German
Jesuit, Father Roch. in 1852. issued a
public challenge offering to pay the
sum of 1000 Rhenish guelders to any
one who, in the judgment of the fac
ulty of law in the University of Heidel-
berg or of Bonn, should establish the
fact that any Jesuit had ever taught
the doctrine that the end justifies the
means. or any doctrines equivalent to
it. This challenge has been before the

MY HARBoR DOWN IN GALWAY.

An ocean entrance TO New York
But a harbour down in Galway.
Though Scots may rise their voice in song
And boast their friths and soiway
In love of home there's nothing wrong
That's why l sing for Galway.
My birth was near the pleasant place,
And when I'm in the pail way
l hope the God will give me grace
To rest my bones in Galway.
The humble cot | called my home,
Had neither tower nor hallway
Yet none so good from here to Rome,
My harbour was in Galway.
Good luck attend your homely wit
That knew no bar nor toll way
For loving what was in you knit
Your humble home and Galway.
There never was a place like home,
Denial marks thrall way,
If 1 were there I'd never roam
So far from dear old Galway.

"Looting'' in China.

As to the 'looting" in China by the
French Catholic Bishop Faver, the fact
is that the bishop and his missionaries
sold relics and curios of their own for
$4,000 to feed their people after the
riots But this was only small frac-
tior of what was needed. Then the
monseignor appealed to the French
minister, who directed him to take
food and clothing from SOM houses
that were in ruins and deserted. which.

All Honor to the Noble Sisters

Friday evening of last week an ambu-
lance was seen standing before the old
building on the banks Of the turbid
Missouri, which by courtesy was named
st. Joseph's city hospital says the
Catholic Tribune of that city. For years
past the city fathers had been urged
to do something for the suffering who
were forced to place themselves under
the charity of our municipality The
cry of suffering seemed to fall on deaf
ears. But when things came to the
point that unfOrtunates unable to care
for themselves were forced to remain
in a tent, with the thermometer a [ the
freezing point, the Indignation ex-
pressed by angry citizens in no uncer-
tain terms forced action.
Having no one to turn to in that
hour of need, no appropriation to build
either hospital or pest house. our board
of health knew there was only one re-
course, and in despair the representa-
ton of the great wealthy city of st.
Joseph turned to that noble band of
women who for nearly 300 years have
proved themselves in fact, as we'll as
in name, Sisters of Charity
The appeal of the board of health to
st. Joseph's hospital was not in vain.
and on Friday evening. Dec. 3, the pa
tients were removed from the city hos
pital to the care of the good sisters.

RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE.

The oldest Catholic church in New
England is st. Patrick's, in the section
OF the town of Nobleboro Me, known
as Damriscotta Mills. This church was
built during the Jurisdiction of the Rt.
Rev. John Cheverus, afterward bishop
of Boston, and was completed in 1903.
In 1852 there were but 1850 Catholics
in the city of Berlin. The census re-
Gently completed shows 10000. Of
Germans, 34OOO.O00 inhabitants, 17,S0O,-
