Upon the advice Of the United

yesterday, Patrolmen Winters and
McManus placed john MeCaffery,
one of the most prominent colored
men of the city, under arrest on the
charge Of obtaining money from the
government by forgery. Last even

: was released on $500 bond and his
hearing set for next Tuesday.
The ease dates back to last August
when a letter containinga government
warrant for $21l, payable to James
ID. Calpha, who has the contract for
delivering the mail between the post
office and the depotdisappeared. Nc
Gallery took the warrant and had
it cashed at the United
States sub treasury in Gin
cinnati. With the money derived
from the warrant it is claimed that
he purchased two pieces Of real
estate in the city.
After Mr.. Calpha did not receive
his warrant the authorities at
Washington were notified and an in
vestigation was started. which re
suited in the arrest of McCaffery.
He was notified by the government
last Monday that he would be given
until Wednesday morning at 10
O'Clock to get the money and on his

pressohs of JOY which beamed in their counte-

CORPUS CHRISTI.

The feast of Corpus Christi was celebrated last

Holy Thursday, but which is not celebrated with
pomp and solemnity on that day, because, occurring

unwilling of the cross on Good Friday, COM
memorative of the Passion of Christ. To the Cath
Ole mind the institution of the Holy Eucharist
was the richest legacy left by Christ to his fol
lowers. The promises made by him during his lite
time were fulfilled at the Last Supper. At Caphar-
naum he told his apostles and disciples Unless
you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his
blood, you shall not have life in YOU His fol-
lowers understood him to what he said, and:
to confirm their understanding, he repeated and
reiterated with strongest observation, Amen
ameno what he first said. Their objection to his
requirement did not change his position At the
Last Supper he carried out his promise when he
took bread, blessed it and said: This is my body"
The language used could not be palmer nor more
simple. Yet the doctrine contained in the promise
and words of the institution has been denied by all
forms of heresy. To confuse and refute the varl-
Gus interpretations given the words of Our Lord
a celebrated artist conceived the idea of painting
on canvas picture of Christ seated at the Last
Supper In the same picture Luther and Zwinius
were also portrayed Beneath the picture were in
scribed these words. Christ says: This is my
body Luther says: This will become my body
Zwinglius says: This symbolizezs my body As an

hey church of Ottobeuren Bavaria, more cog
ent and convincing as an argument in favor of
the. sacrament to the Holy Eucharist than volumes

WHAT is THE MATTER?

Why is it that the trade of the United States
with South America is of such slow growth! In
1898 the value of American products exported to
that continent was $S2,6OO,OOO In 1908 it was
$41,100O00. That is a gain of only about 1919
per cent in eleven years During that period there
was an increase of 80 per cent in exports to Eu-
rope and of $50 per cent in those to Asia and
Oceanica. In 1898 the value of commodities
shipped to other parts of this continent-princi-
pally Mexico and Canada-was $119000,000, and
last year it was $215,00000O, says the Chicago
Tribune.
The American enterprise which has discovered
new markets in other continents or increased the
capacity of old markets, seems to have let South
America religiously alone, or has found the task
of building up trade there which is beyond
It's strength. The Latina American states are gain
ing in population. With the exception of Venezuela
and Colombia they have been quite free from
lutions of late, and have enlarged the volume of
their exports and imports, but they are little more
inclined to trade with the United States than they
were years ago. 1t must be confessed that this
country is not increasing its consumption of South
American products. In 1898 it bought $102,000,000
worth and 1908 S107 100000 worth OF last years
imports the two items of coffee and india rubber
from Brazil alone represented $63,000000.
South American trade is worth cultivating but
while Germans and Englishmen seem to know how
to cultivate it, Americans do not. 1t ought to be
easier to drum up customers in Argentina or Bra
I'll than in China, but apparently it is not There
is no difficulty about selling goods to Mexicans
but there is when it to selling to Chieans

it is. The slow growth of American trade with the

The defense Of John Turner, the anarchist
rested mainly on the ground that the law which
denied him entrance to America was not in har-
lnony with the constitutional provision which pro-
hibts the abridgement of free speech the exercise
of religious privileges, etc. To this objection Chief
Justice Fuller replied: 1T has 10 reference to an
establishment Of religion nor does it prohibit the
exercise thereof nor abridge the freedom of speech
or OF the press nor the right of the people to as
semble and petition the government for redress of
grievances. 1t IS of course, true that if an alien
IS not permitted to enter this country, or having
entered contrary TO law, is expelled, he is in fact

because of his exclusion therefrom. He is not one

CONFIRMATION AND FIRST CoMMUNION.

The children of the parish received the sacre-
Sunday. The sight presented by such large class
of boys and girls as seen at the altar rails soul
inspiring and edifying Confirmation, which is one
of the seven sacramento is conferred by the bishop
of the diocese. Imprnting as it does on the soul
indelble character, it can be received only
once. Its effects are to strengthen the faith and
make the recipient soldier of the cross. In CON.
ferring the sacrament the bishop, dressed in his
pontifcal robes, solemny says: Il sign thee with
the sign of the cross, and l confirm thee with the
chrism of salvation, i'll the name of the Father and
of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" Chrism men
toned in the above form, is a mixture of olive oil
and balm, .consecrated by the bishop on Holy
Thursday It's application to the forehead in
a crucial form means that the confirmed who share
in the gifts of the Holy Ghost, should openly pro-
fess and practice their faith, never be ashamed of
it, or deny IT, Aided by the indwelling of the Holy
Spirit, those confirmed can carry out the injunc-
ton of the Savior by not being ashamed of or
denying their Master, and escaping the penalty
attached to both. "They who are ashamed of me
before men, | viii be ashamed of them before nv
Father in Heaven. They who deny me before men,
| viii deny them before my Father IN Heaven"

trmation could be given than the miraculous
