A Beautiful Tribute.

II HE description of the funeral SER
vices over the remains of Arch
bishop Corrigan written by Julian
hawthorne are given on our first page.
The story is told in a simple, impress
sive manner. The descriptions are in
imitable. Nothing escaped his notice.
The burning candles and the censors
are clothed with dress that make
them sublime. Those taking part in
the ceremony, from the acolyte up to
the cardinal wearing his crimson be-
retta are portrayed as they walk in
procession up the aisle of the great ca
thedral. His tribute to the church
equals, if it does not surpass, that of
McCauley.
THE church of Rome is the mightiest
of all human organizations; it is sub
stantial and perfect down to its last
detail. From the central Christ of the
creed, down through the Roman pontiff.
and so on, branching and disseminat-
ing from the red-capped cardinal to the
humblest black-cassocked priest, the
duI0OIlIX
is passed along, and exercised and
obeyed.' How Catholic in its tone, and
how sublime in its simplicity. His de-
scription of the mass which is a STUN
bling to many, is beautiful and grand.
Nothing done by man is more subtly
moving in its influence than the mass;
no other dramatic representation ap-
it in significance and sublfm-
lty- 1t is the most wonderful and CO.
gent appeal ever devised by humanity
for the blessing and presence of it's
Creator"
The author Of these beautiful and
sentiments is not himself a
member of the church to which he paws
such high compliments.

Editor Intermountain Catholic:
My Dear Sir:-Replying TO your TaNor
asking my approval of The Intermountaln
Catholic since its establishment in tnls
diocese, l will state that i consider the
founding of a Catholic paper in Salt Lake
not the least OF the many blessings be
slowed by Providence on the Church mere
during the past two years. Its birth oe-
CURED at an opportune time. Its zeal, III
propagating Catholic truth, has had,
since its inception, my hearty. though
silent approval. l believe with Our Holy
Father that "a good Catholic journal is
perpetual mission in parish, and tnaf
It will serve as a question box, at a.
times, for anxious inquirers. In my Vlsl-
tations l shall hope to find The Inter-
mountain Catholic in the homes of every
Catholic family. Its mission is to es-
pouse truth. justice and morality, and all
devoted priests will lind IN 1t an able CO.
operator in their missionary work. 1t IS
my wish that all my priests and the lalty
entrusted to my charge Should encourage
your noble effort and that of the gen
erous founder Of The Intermountaln
Catholic. Yours sincerely.

NOVEL READING.

The enormous sales that many books
OF fiction have just now show plainly
mat the greater number of readers to-
day are novel readers. History of the
medieval and American colonial kind,
and biography still have their readers;
but even the Wi3e5pread interest in his
tory and biography may be considered
as indica lions of an interest that pri-
marty was aroused by the novel. For
merlv this great inc~@ ase of the novel
reading public would have been consid-
cred as an indutiable proof of super
ficiality, of fIivolousness. and a certain
flghtinests that should be discouraged
by all means. For formerly novels were
looked upon as so unreal in their delin-
cations OF character, as so suggestive
of emotions that should be crushed out
of the life of all who were destined, or
who wished, to engage in any serious
pursuits, and as presenting such airy
pictures of life. that any one who was
known to read them assiduously was
Immediately put down as a dreamer,
and almost as one who was preparing
himself to be a good-for- nothing all the
days of his life. This old notion has
not yet quite been erased from the
minds of all. There are still some peo-
pie who boast that they have never
read a novel. But the greater number
OF men and women now look upon the
novel as filling want that modern
practical life has left empty. And it is
from this position of view that the
novel is good. OF course, in saying this,
we are only speaking of the books that
are good; good in their literary quail
ties, in their subjects. and in the man
ner in which the subjects are pre-
sented.-New World

THE PoPE,s ADMoN1TIoN.

A Catholic newspaper in a parish is a
perpetual mission. Let all who truly and
from their souls desire that Religion and
society defended by human intellect and
literature should flourish. strive by their
nberality to guard and protect the
Catholic press, and let every one in pro-
portion to his income support them with
his money and influence, for TO those
who devote themselves to the Catholic
press we ought by all means to bring
helps of this kind without which their
industry will either have no results or
uncertain and miserable ones.

many such warnings shall man re-

be holy in sincerity of heart, entire for

The Sabbath Day.

IN HE division of time, made by God,

man-temporal and spiritual.
There could be no conflict if adjusted
according to the designs and command
of God. Six days shalt thou labor. and
shalt do all thy work On the seventh
spiritual interests are substituted for
the temporal Gods generosity in ask
ing only the seventh part of mans life
is greater than that of parents who
demand a third of their child's life.
The justice of Gods claim is evident
and should appeal to mans conscience
to keep holy the. Sabbath.
.
The Sunday not only gives rest from
physical toll, but points upward to the
eternal repose that succeeds the trials
and hardships patiently borne beneath
the shadow of Calvary. 1t is to the
poor and weary a happy day. for
whilst in a worldly sense it may bring
no real rest, yet they, who look with
resignation to the Father above and
sigh forth their sorrow at the foot of
the cross, are well night already
crowned. A patient sigh from suf-
fering heart is the sweetest offering at
the throne of God. 1t makes its bur-
denS> his and makes him it's reward.

Seems to be Chief Use of the Funny
Turkish Navy.
The Turkish navy in 1878 retired be-
hlnd the bridges up the Golden Horn,
and there remained rotting until 1897.
the only purpose the vessels served being
to act as mussel and oyster beds, from
which the dock hands occasionally got
good feed. The ships were disnlantled,
IN many cases parts of their engines We're
used for merchant vessels, and it is even
said the propellers were taken to the pal
ace to prevent anybody making use of
them. When the Greek war broke out and
daily rumors came of the Greek fleet do
ing immense damage to Turkish seacoast
places, feeling arose that the Turkish
navy must be up and doing, and the
Sultan saw that he must make a move.

scraped off, the boilers patched with ce-

them was seaworthy, but they made Il

badly that they had to be beached, while
others went ashore of their own accord,

Again the Sultan thought something
should be done, so he entered into con-

cost of IL 100000. But the Italians
wanted something to begin with. and
after two years 100000 has been forth

plans will be unremunerative, and he
wants to break the contract, supporting
his wish with all kinds of excuses. The

Italian firm should build new cruiser

Dangerous Cobwebs.

Many cases of tetanus or lockjaw, are
now appearing in the public prints Mrs.
FARMLAND tells of lockjaw having been
caused by the application of a cobweb
to a slight cut.
''The wound was perfectly clean one,
and nothing need have resulted from
this obedience to a superstitious preju-
dice had not the cobwebs unfortunately
arrested some local germs, and these,
getting across the wound, set up the typ
ical symptoms of lockjaw. That this
implication of the cobweb was no idle &C.
cusation was subsequently proved by por-
tons of the same web, on being inocu-
lated into animals, inducing in the latter
well-defned symptoms of tetanus."
That cobwebs readily catch dust is
familiar to everyone who has the NORTH
cation of seeing them adorn ceilings and
corners: that they also arrest bacteria
follows as natural consequence of the
presence Of dust, and hence those delicate
flaments may become veritable bacterial
storehouses, more especially as it is usu-
ally in the dark and remote corners that
they best succeed in Guiding the vigilance
of the domestic eye, and are also out of
reach of the lethal action of sunbeams,
and hence their unwelcome dodgers may
manage to maintain very comfortable
existence over long periods of time

How to Do Business in Mexico.

It is difficult for an American business
man to appreciate fully the differences
that exist in Mexican business customs.
Not few important undertakings have
been abandoned through the demands for
more immediate results from the men at
the other end. A representative is sent
here to inaugurate a business or secure
concessions, and when these things are
not secured in the time supposed to be
necessary from experience in the states
disappointment ensues that occasionally
results in the representative recall and
the abandonment of the field. Such in
stances are probably for the best. The
firm that does not select it's foreign rep
resentatiyes with care and send them out
with confidence that they will do the best
they can under the circumstances as they
find them will scarcely make q success
in Mexico. Some of Mexico's business
customs are undergoing gradual change,
but few transactions are contaminated
with the same rapidity as in the states.
nor is the result arrived$a at, in. the same
manner. There is much good business
to be found in this modern pushing. ex-
