Best "Sliding Scale"

What makes man rich? Is the
term merely comparative? Not mere.
ly. TO be rich is to have beyond the
demands of our bodily needs abund-
ant means to supply our spiritual
wants. To possess more material re-
sources than we can or will use or be-
stow to the spiritual advantage Of our
selves and others, is to be periolously
rich. whether we belong to grinders
union in the cutlery works or to a
royal family. Why is it so often right
that a rich college, for example, should
in its money chest feel poor? Because
it could so easily supply more spiritual
wants if it had more money.
Not low wages will ever make men
harmless, nor high wages make them
happy, nor low nor high save them
from spirit of pauperism or Of ma
lignant envy; but having wages big
ger than their bodily wants, and hay
ing spiritual wants numerous and elias
tic enough to use up the surplus, spir-
itMl wants which know both how to
suffer need and how to abound and to
do either without backsliding toward
savagery. Whoever would help this
state of things on let him seek at the
same time to increase the homes wage
earning power and it's spiritual pow
ers; to put to fine use the wages earn
ed-the love of beauty in nature and
in art. the love of truth and knowledge.
the love of achievement and of service,
the love of God and of human society,
the ambition to put more into the world
than we get out of it. Wages will
never be too high nor the hours of a
days work too many or too few for
those who follow that sliding SCALE"

A PLEASING PERFORMANCE
BY Graduates of Holy Angels Academy
Bishop McGolrick Address.

"Writers of history and school text
books and makers of dictionaries and
encyclopedias are much more inclined
than ever before to consult Catholic
scholars and men of letters regarding
mooted questions of matters of church
history, and as result works pub
lished within the past few years are
comparatively free from gross errors
and misstatements of facts relating to
Catholicism.
This is the opinion of Bishop James
McGolrick of Duluth, for many years
pastor Of the church of Immaculate
Conception in this city. Bishop Nc
Golrich made short address at the
Bijou theater Monday evening just be-
fore the curtain arose for the perform
ance Of elizabeth of Thuringia," Civ
en- by the senior pupils of the Holy
Angels academy.
Bishop McGolrick's address was in
tended to be more or less Of a discus
sion of the educational methods, espe-
cially of the Catholic church of Mime
sofa. and in the course of it the speak
er paid high tribute to the effectiveness
Of the American system of education,
public and private. And, incidentally,
the bishop spoke in the highest terms
of the Holy Angels academy, where
the Dun11iIS arn taupht in addition RI
the fundamentals of eduaction, the
practical side of things and the essence
of good citizenship.
The performance which followed
Bishop NIcGolrich's address was a five
act drama, written by Elizabeth Pold-
ing. The cast was composed of twenty
five persons, not including the chorus,
and all of the performers are members

CREDIT TO ALL
Timely Statement of the Advis-
DRY Committee Of the
Irish Industrial Exhibition Gov
ering Criticisms.

Our attention having been called to
certain criticisms in the press assert
ing that the performances in the the
alter in the grounds attached to the
Irish Exhibition caricatured the Irish
character, we, the Advisory Committee
of this Exhibition, desire to publish at
the earliest possible moment the fact
that these attacks are without true
foundation, and are reflection on the
Irish-American citizens Of st. Louis.
10 a representative committee Of these
citizens the supervision and the gen.
eral conduct of this Exhibition has
been entrusted by the promoters, and
we, the members of that committee,
feel that we are sufficiently qualified
to judge of, and to maintain what is
due to the respect and dignity of the
Irish character. So far from the per-
formances in the theater being of the
nature referred to. in our opinion they
are refined and attractive entertain
ments, rejecting credit in every way
on the Irish character, and they are
not unworthy to be a subsidiary adj
junct to the great and beautiful eN-
hibition of Irish industries, arts and
education which was dedicated on Sat
urday. June II, and which is the prin-
cipal feature with which we are con-
cerned. Having regard to all the diff
: fieulties which attend the early days
of a great and worthy undertaking of
this kind, it is marvellous to us how
few imperfections appeared even from
the first few days. The opinion we
express is that of thousands of the
leading citizens of st. Louis, who have
watched the Exhibition, and has been
endorsed by his Grace, the Archbishop
of st. Louis; Senator Carter, Chair
man of the United States Government
Commission at the Worlds Fair; the
Hon. David r. Francis, President of
the Exposition, his Honor, Rolla Wells,
Mayor Of st. Louis; Mr.. Edward Hern

of the academy.

Of the academy.
Elizabeth of Thuringia, the main
character, was a beautiful young wom-
an who devoted her life to deeds of
charity and life of self sacrifice and
was almost from childhood prosecuted
by enemies who envied her the possess
sion of the crown and the love Of those
to whom she stood in the light Of a
benefactor. She was ruling Thuringia,
while her husband, as devoted Chris
tan as she, was on crusade in the
Holy Land. Their married life before
his departure had been season Of
happiness, but was short-lived. Death
claimed him while he was away ON the
pilgrimage and his mother and younger
brother seized the crown from Eliza
beth, turning her out Of doors, with her
three small children. Her Persecution
resulted in her death when she was but
twenty-four years old, but her beauti-
full life and noble example left sweet
and fragrant legacy to her children and
devoted admirers within and without
the castle.
Miss Nellie Mccarthy was given the
difficult role of Elizabeth and she made
Il pleasing impression in the part. She
invested it with dignity and grace and
was easily equal to dramatic climaxes.
Miss Sadie Noonan had strong part
in that of Sophia, the mother-in-law,
and she was quite adequate to its de-
mands, and Margaret Donovan had the
third leading role, that of CASTELAR,,
and was successful in her impersona-
ton. Miss Donovan possesses rarely
sweet voice and her singing gave her
audience thrill of pleasure.
Miss May Dwyer, as Rosamund, and
Miss Glare Hays as Wiborad, invested
their parts with realism and the latter
especially had opportunity for an or
iginality that was charming.
The cast as whole was exceedingly
well selected and the presentation of
the play was an artistic success.
The supporting roles We're in the
hands of Loretta Garvin, Sara O'Leary,
Mary Webster, Mary Kennedy, Ruth
Clapperton, Alice Dwyer, Mary Spell
man, Catherine Kane, Julia O'Leary,
Ethel Mcdonald, Helen Lohmar, Lii
liam Murphy, Katherine Hagan, Laura
