The Nun at the Siege of Mafe,;na

Many honors have been awarded in
connection with the South African war
None have been more worthilv deserved
Than that which was paid at the
Mafeklng Catholic convent on June %
when Colonel Vyvyan presented 10
Mother Teresa the Royal Red Cross as
mark of distinction from the late
Queen Victoria. 1t will be remembered
mat during the siege noble work for
the relief of distress was done by a liz
Iie band of ladies. The BURSTING shells
uld not deter them from their errands
OF mercy, and amidst great misery and
privations they were ministerine an
gels. or that band Mother Teresa was
the head. Queen Victoria determined
That three of those ladies should re-
ceive the Royal Red Cross. one of
them, Miss Crawford, was presented
with 1t by Lord Kitchener at Pretoria
another Miss Hill--now Mrs. Whinble
obtained hers at the hands of Colonel
Garstln. Colonel VyVyan. acting on
behalf of his superior, General Max-
Wei, rendered the cross to Mother Te-
fesa, and in graceful speech conerst-
uiated her as a personal friend Cor
efnonles of this kind are not rare in
the case of nuns. Mother Teresa acted
with wonderful courage and patience
Dut she only did what nuns ALWAYS do

Church
Universal.
"This is
the victory
which over.
0Ometh the
WOrId-.-Our
faith"

the minister of the sacrament of pen
/ ance is called the Seal of Confession.
This obligation arises from the natural
law, for every one who confides secrets
! to another has a right TO have his con-
fidence respected. 1t is also required
by the Divine law, for when God insti-
tuted the sacrament under the form of
secret trial, he by implication re-
quired the minister who holds his place
to do nothing which would Illustrate
the purpose of this secrecy; and these
natural and Divine obligations are en-
forced by the canon law of the church
The obligation is absolute, admitting
of no exception whatever. The seal
binds the priest and all other persons
to whose knowledge the confession has
come, such as interpreters, or if ever
1t should chance that any one over
heard what was said; and it extends
not only to sins, but also to whatever
else has become known in a confession
made in order to obtain absolution, the
revelation of which would in any way
annoy the penitent
The penitent himself is not under
any obligation of secrecy, but if he be
wise he will always observe it.-Rev.

ArchbishOp corrigan,s Charity.

new light has been thrown upon the
life of the late Archbishop Corrigan
last week by the Rev. j. n. Connolly,
rector of the Church Of Our Lady of
Good Counsel, who was private secre.
tary to the archbishop during the last
ten years of his life. Father Connolly
took exception to the statement that
Archbishop Corrigan had given his
money to his family while living and
had left none at his death.
That is not the case, said Father
Connolly, unless by members of his
family are meant the faithful over
whom he presided as spiritual father
Money had absolutely no attraction
Tor him, and he carried little with him
at any time. / recall very distinctly
that there was one period when he
was actually penniless. That was
during the two or three years preced
ing the opening of the seminary at
Dunwoodie, and particularly while the
chapel was under construction. Had
he died at that time he would not have
left enough to bury him.
More than once during that period
when i called upon him for a check
to pay house and other expenses he
laughingly admitted that he had not
penny, and asked if 1 could get along
"iA1tL ooAlSllius came IN. AS our
credit was good We suffered no en-
barrassment, but the incident will
serve to show exactly how much
wealth the archbishop had boarded
up. L acted as his almoner in a meas
ure during the ten years | was with
him, and know the way in which he
constantly distributed what he had 10
the poor and needy. All he had in
the world he gave to the seminary at
Dunwoodie when it was built. and
turned over as a library fund the sun,
OF $4,000 received from a life insur-
ance policy when it matured.'

HAPPY HOME.

Ihere's lovely place in Erin that I
And cherish dearly in my heart wherever
| may rove. .
Where the lovely little shamrock all O. er
its surface twine,
And may gems of golden splendor forever
on it shine.
How often have I wandered round this
happy little vale,
And matchless are its beauties the gem
of Innsfail.'
OF all the famous places in st. Patrick's
holy land
This is the most historic spot blessed by
his sanity hand
On every side you cast your eye tls
Charming to be seen;
It's lovely hills and valleys are fertile,
rich and green
Upon these verdant hillsides st. Patrick
once knelt down.
And ne blessed the land where now we
stand on the plains of Castletown.
Let all his faithful followers that are
round it's wales TODAY
Try to follow in his footste2s. and for
peace around it pray.
When other scenes are fading let your
love for it be shown.
And be faithful to that village st. Pat
rick called his own.
Success may always deck it, and sorrow
never froWn,
And happiness be ever thine, sweet,
