MIXED MARRIAGES.

The Catholic Bishop of Liverpool
preached a sermon recently on the
evils of mixed marriages. He had
given mission in tbs town of New
ton in his jurisdiction, and had made
a few inquiries. Here are the find
ings: There were LA mixed marri-
ages, going back forty years, and in
all these cases Catholics entertained
the very strongest hopes that the non
Catholics would come over to the
Catholic religion. But, in how MANY
cases had that hope been realizeda
Only in thirteen cases. In 131 cases
they had not resulted III conversion to
the Catholic church. HaG there been
any cases in which Catholics had he.
come Protestants? He was very sorry
to say forty-three Catholics had he
come Protestants. No wonder tba
church detested mixed marriages
what could a priest say when a girl
talked to him about the hopes of CON
version with those figures before him

BELIEVERS IN THE REAL PRES
ENCE.

By Rev. John F. Mullany, LID. in
May Donahoe's.
Well, dear Protestant friends, ask
the Egyptian Copt who sits amid the
faded glories of buried dynasties, what
dogma he chung to with the most affec-
ton, as his support during the cen
turtles of persecution he has enduerd.
and he will tell yod-the sweet, con-.
soling mystery of the Real Presence.
Ask the Greek, like jeremiah among
the ruins of his former Empire to
what doctrine he clings as his COM
fort in his degradation, and he will
reply that from his belief in this mys-
terry so clearly attested to in the con-
fessions of faith subscribed to by his
Patriarchs and archbishops he has de-
rived his greatest consolation and re-
lief Ask the HISTORIAN of far-off In
dia, separated since the fifth century
from the communion of our church,
what made his forefathers welcome
with delight the first European mis-
sionaries who visited them in their
unknown retirement, and he will tell
you that it was their sweet consola-
ton to find Christians from Europe cer-
ebrating the same sacrifice with the
same belief as themselves. Ask the
swarthy Monophysite of Abyssinia,
what is the first mystery among the
shriveled remains of Christianity in
his darkened land, and he replies that
the first and noblest of his sacraments
is that of the Body and Blood of
his Lord. In word, travel over the
whole of Asia and Africa, ask all the
scattered tribes of the desert, all the
fierce hordes of the mountains, or the
better instructed inhabitants of the
cities, what are the points on which
all agree, and they will tell YOU that
it is on the Sacrament of the Altar.
Now can this dogma of faith come
from any source but the fountain head
of Christianity? When we find this
column of faith standing almost alone
amidst the ruins and fragments If
Christianity must we not conclude that
it formed substantial and most val
ued ornament of the holy fabric which
is emblematic of that pillar of truth
on which the Apostle of the Gentiles
orders us to lean?

DR.. HALE HITS A WEAK SPOT.
Chicago Tribune.)

DR.. Hale has hit one of the weak
spots in the modern public school sys-
tem-the lack of training in duty
duty to parents, to superiors, and to
education. To that is due the lack
of respect for authority and obedi-
ence to discipline. There was an il
lustration of this the other day at
the Elgin High school. The pupils of
that school, who are old enough to
have known better, with the eXagger-
ated idea of their own Importance,
of which DR.. Hale justly complains,
undertook to do as they pleased in
every respect without regard to the
regulations of the school or the au-
thority of the principal In a word,
they were running the school and
laughed at any attempt to restrain
them or to preserve order One day,
when the INSTRUMENTATION and dis
order became too intolerable to bear,
the principal lost his temper and,
foolishly, perhaps, assaulted one of
the offenders, instead of suspending
him or dismissing him altogether,
whereupon he was assaulted in turn,
and came near receiving severe pun
ishment. Fortunately, in this case,
the people of Elgin, VINO are on the
eve of electing a new board of edu-
cation and a new superintendent, the
old one being deemed too severe, have
changed their minds and will now
re-elect the old superintendent, with
the view to restoration of authority
in the school.
The case at Elgin is not exception
al. In the city of Chicago there are
children who have no respect for the
authority of teachers and fancy they
are running the school and, worse
still, there are some teachers who
have no respect for the board of edu-
cation and fancy they are the man
ayers of the school system. DR.. Hale
is old and may be old-fashioned, but
his criticism is none the less true,
and it applies to everything in this
country that is or should be subject
to higher authority. Disrespect for
the governing power in the state, in
the school, in the home, is a growing
weakness in the republic.
The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1903-05-16

And the figures were almost the same
throughout the diocese. The priest
might say, and with truth, to any one
who spoke of conversion, that there
was just as much likelihood of a
Protestant becoming a Catholic as a
Catholic becoming a Protestant. And
so they could judge of the past. There
were no less than eighty-seven chill
dren, the issue of these forty-three
mixed marriages, and they were being
brought up as Protestants. These fig
ures inculcate their own lesson. Would
that the marriageabie would study and
be guided.

Hence, it is my honest and sin
cere conviction that the coal miners
have scored no victory; that the coal
operators are better off now than
ever; that the public is numerically
fieeced. and has not the courage to
cry out against the plunderers. In
the face of these conditions, there
fore, it would not be surprising to hear
that an outraged and indignant pub
lie was on the eve of the greatest
strike that has yet been declared;
demanding the worth of its money
and the right to say to the plumber
ers: $50 much you may steal from
me, but no more"

If l should die tonight,
My friends would look upon my quiet
Before they laid it in its resting place,
And deem that death had left it al
most fair;
And, laying snow white flowers
against my hair,
Would smooth it down with fearful
tenderness,
And fold my hands with lingering
Poor hands, so empty and so cold to-
night!
If should die tonight,
My friends would call to mind, with
loving thought,
Some kindly deed the icy hands had
wrought;
Some gentle word the frozen lips had
said;
brands on which the willing feet had
sped;
The memory of my selfshness and
pride,
My hasty words, would all be put
aside,
And so should be loved and mourned
tonight.
If l should die tonight,
Even hearts estranged would turn
once more to me,
Recalling other days remorsefully:
The eyes that chill me with ayerted
glance
Would look upon me as of yore, per-
chance,
And soften, in the old familiar way;
For who could war with dumb, uncon.
scious clay
So 1 might rest, forgiven of all. to-
night.

NEGLECTED CATHOLICS IN THE
WEST.

By Rev. ]. T. Roche in May Donahoe's.
The west has grown so rapidly that
1t has been difficult for the church to
keep pace with its wondrous develop
ment. A town springs up in a few
years. The people flock thither There
is no place of Catholic worship. There
is none found with zeal and energy
enough to inagurate the building Of a
church; or it may be that the poverty
OF pioneer days renders them incap-
able of such an undertaking. The
faithful gradually grow lukewarm.
owing to the distance from church
they rarely hear mass. They are so
intent on acquiring the things of the
world that they give but little atten-
ton to the things that are of God. The
children are neglected The fervor of
faith dies out of their souls for lack
OF nourishment; and slowly but SURELY
every vestige of Catholicity disappears
from their lives. The only means of
bringing them back to God is a Cath
ollc hurch and Catholic priest 10
minister to their spiritual needs.
have seen churches built in COM
eASS "A1ClC IL was there
We're very few Catholics; and have
later been astonished to find so NAV
ready to identify themselves with the
church of their fathers. This has
been well exemplified in the case of
IN Bruno parish. Moved by the
touching circumstances in which their
church had its inception, the vast ma
Jority of those of Catholic extraction
cheerfully came forward and did
everything in their power to make
their newly-organized congregation a
success. Within less than wear
from the date of the church's dedica-
ton they had begun the erection of a
parochial residence, and today there
is a resident priest whose labors are
abundantly blessed, where five wears
ago the abomination of desolation
reigned.
