nifty, why should we not honor her?
Fine Christians we should be, indeed,
if we refused her the honor that is
due to her; and great honor and re-
spect would we show to Him who has
given her that exalted rank above
every other creature in heaven, on
earth and under the earth(?) She is
the greatest and most exalted in dig
nifty, because she is the Mother of God,
and she is the greatest in sanctity,
because she has been adorned with
the plenitude of grace.
Well might we thy praises utter,
Clustering round thee night and day,
Placing flowers upon thy altar,
To honor thee, our Queen of May"

OFFICIAL ENDORSEMENT.
Editor Intermountain Catholic:

Editor lntermOuntain Catholic:
My Dear Sir-Replying to your ia
vor asking my approval of The Inter
mountain Catholic since its establish
ment in this diocese, will state that
consider the founding of a Catholic
paper in Salt Lake not the least of the
many blessings bestowed by Provi-
dence on the Church here during the
past two years. Its birth occurred at
an opportune time. Its zeal in propa-
eating Catholic truth has had, since
its inception, my hearty though silent
approval. 1 believe with Our Holy
Father that "a good Catholic journal
is a perpetual mission in a parish, +"
and that it will serve as a question
box, at all times, for anxious inquir-
ers. In my visitations 1 shall hope to
find The Intermountain Catholic in
the homes of every Catholic family.
Its mission is to espouse truth, Justice
and morality, and all devoted priests
will find in it an able co-operator in
their missionary work 1t is my wish
that all my priests and the laity en-
trusted to my charge should encour-
age your noble effort and that of the
generous founder of The Intermoun-
tain Catholic. Yours sincerely,
L. SCANLAN,
Bishop of Salt Lake.

and implore American women to keep
their charms and their money at home.
The amusing part of it is that the one
thing which undoubtedly booms this
particular section of the matri-
monial market more than all the
other causes combined, is the pub
licity given to the sayings and doings
of the women who contract such al
liances. A journalist should remove
the beam from his own eye before
hunting for the mote in the other fell
lows.

"QUEEN OF MAY"

THE MONTH OF MAY is once more
upon us, and the joy and gaiety which
it brings are everywhere seen and felt
Nature herself, for months past, held,
as it were, in the iron bonds of an en-
forced slavery, now proclaims her graf
itude for being free. The birds carol
forth their songs of sweetest melody,
the flowers, yielding to the kiss of old
Father SOL" bud forth in rich pro-
fusion of tints and hues, the trees and
meadows are in sympathy and don
their robes of emerald green-all ma
ture is clothed in her richest garb to
greet the return of the glorious May.
All this, bespeaking the joy and glad
ness of inanimate nature, finds re-
sponsive echo in the heart of man, the
nobler creation, and he is joyous, too.
From time immemorial May has been
to him a time of gladness. The out
break into new life and beauty which
marks all nature instinctively inspires
him, The first emotion is a desire to
seize some part of that profusion of
flower or blossom which spreads
around, to set up in decorative fash
ion, and to let the pleasure which it
eXcites find expression in mirth and
song. Even among pagans the ten
dency has been to render to this Vege-
table trophy sort of homage. In
some countries, especially in England,
as we learn from historians, it was
customary during the middle ages for
all, both high and low-even the court
itself-to go out into the fields and
woods on the first May morning at an
early hour ito fetch the flowers
fresh" The trophies of the expedition
were carried home by the people
amidst all possible signs of joy and
and used to decorate the
doors and windows of their homes.
The custom was popularity known as
going a-Maying." In many in
stances the fairest maid of the village
was crowned with flowers as the
Queen of May" placed in a little
bower or arbor, where she sat in state,
receiving the homage and admiration
Of the youthful jewellers, who danced
and sang around her.
The Church has taken up this Gus
tom with all it's ancient enthusiasm,
but it has taken a spiritual turn. Her
are enthused and filed with
he spirit Of glorious May, but-how
Of old it was the spirit
If the world; today it is the spirit of
Tod; of old some vain beauty of the
7illage" was chosen, today is chosen
IS Queen of the May" Mary, the i'm
naculate Virgin Mother of God, the
Lily of the Valley" the Cypress of
1ebanon"; of old flowers were gath
red to decorate the doors and win
ows of homes; today they are gath
red to decorate the shrines of Mary.

THE PoPE,s ApMoNITIoN.

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 hu-
man intellect and literature should
flourish, strive by their liberality to
guard and protect the Catholic press,
and let every one in proportion to his
income support them with his money
and influence, for to those who. de-
vote themselves to the Catholic press
we ought by all means to bring helps
Of this kind, without which their in
dustry will either have no results or
uncertain and miserable ones.

MARRIAGE.
o'Neil-McF adden.

Mr. Richard O'Neil, prominent
Catholic of Nevada, wooed the heart
of one of Salt Lakes most charming
and literary young ladies, Miss Mary
McFadden, a prominent school
teacher in the public schools of the
city, was the happy bride. Miss Nc
Fadden is a graduate of st. Mary's
academy, and has been a special cor
respondent of the Intermountain Cath
the same capacity on the Deseret
News during the past year. Her COM
munications to the Intermountain
Catholic during the Buffalo exhibition
attracted the attention of many read
ers. Last summer, whilst spending
her vacation in Idaho, her descriptive
letters Of the wild scenery and desert
ed log cabins of abandoned mining
camps in that state were most vivid
and real.
The ceremony took place at 1880
Wednesday morning at st. Mary Mag
dalen's church. The marriage cere-
mony was followed by nuptial mass.
Miss Gleason had her choir sing some
select music during the mass. An
Ave Maria, by Miss Owens was ar
tistically rendered. The ceremony
was performed by Father Kiely. Mr..
Fred McGurrin and Miss Jennie Su1li-
van acted as groomsman and brides
maid. The bride wished to have the
ceremony strictly private, but large
number of friends, who heard of the
marriage, were present to extend their
Fluctuations to the happy couple.
The Intermountain Catholic unites
with their many friends in wishing
Mr.. and Mrs. o'Neil happiness and
prosperity in their married life.

1t appears that graft" is at the bot
tom of the expulsion of the monks
from France. If they had submitted
to blackmail they could have stayed.
]. NJ. Benson, Grenoble editor,
and one of the most responsible men
in France, charges the son of the
French premier with having asked a
bride of 100000 from the monks of
Grande Chartreuse as the price of an
arrangement whereby they would be
allowed to remain undisturbed. The
monks refused to submit to his extor-
ton and had to go.

Red tape seems to be strangling
Salt Lake City. Red tape caused the
school trouble, it kept the police out
of their pay, and it prevents the pay
ment of his richly deserved reward
to Policeman Heath. Some people
pay so much attention to hairsplitting
that they have become so learned as
to have lost their common sense.

uo, TO Warm Gold Plates.

Various departments of household
hints have unaeeountably neglected to
tell how solid gold plates may be
warmed for the meat courses at din
ner.
This may be done in the right or
the wrong way. The right way is ex-
empllfied at Castle Kilkenny. This is
one Of the Oldest inhabited dwellings
in the world, some of the rooms being
500 years old. Among its ancient treas
ures is a service of gold plate.
Besides the ordinary plate service,
Castle Kilkenny has the whole series
of gold cups used at coronation ban
quets down 10 the time of George ".
The gold of the service plates is almost
without alloy, consequently very soft
and easily marred. Hence the plates
are warmed and presumably also
washed after use by being dipped into
hot water held by a pair of tongs
whose tips have been mufiled in cham
OILS leather.

an Indian student:
THE horse Is very noble qnadru-

do so. He is ridden on the spinal cord by
the bride, and sadly the driver places
his foots on the stirrup and divides
his lower limbs across the saddle and
drives his animal to the meadow. He
has four legs; two are on the front side
and two are afterward These are the
weapons on which he runs. He also
defends himself by extending those I'm
the rear in n parallel direction toward
his foe. but this he does only when In

BY altering the rate of cooling the
strength of iron can be greatly changed,
and the test bars are often run sepa-
rately from the casting and cooled
quicker so that they usually have
greater strength, sometimes more than
twice as much. Separately cast test
bars are always stronger than those
cast on the castings itself, and of the
latter the one nearest the heaviest part
of the casting Is always the weakest.
