A INDUSTRIOUS CALUMNY.
catholic Record.l

A subscriber sends us as a paper published
across the border, containing an article By Rev.
III. A Schaufler, on the Bohemians, etc. of Cleve-
land. This individual states that the late Bishop
Gilmour demanded from the Bohemians of a certain
parish in Cleveland So each for pardon of their
sins and because they refused to pay it closed their
church for year and a half. Another proof of the
saying "that a fool cannot hold his tongue" Hence
it is of no use to say anything about him. But 1t
must make the judieious grieve to such one
masqueradng as an ambassador of truth.
The most of people like an ANTAGONIST that uses
reputable tactics. The habitues of the prize ring
cry down the pugilist who counter to its rules
but some good clerical gentlemen who talk unc-
tiously of the eight" the gospel, employ any kind
of weapon against Rome. They listen to nothing
save the voice of an unreasoning hatred. which,
in the present Nuisance, lands them betimes IN
quandry not coveted by self-respecting men. The
brainless attacks of individuals of such cabre tend
to make the sects ridiculous, and their friends
should be the first to expose him.
The charges against the late Bishop Gilmour
were made by the Rev. II. A. Schaufier of Cleve-
land Ohio. They are monstrously false. The con-
gregation in question interdicted by the bishop
because it defed his authority. A more upright
man than Bishop Girnour we have known.
He hated injustice; and if he was not to sub
nit tamely to it from any on the other hand
he was incapable of knowingly doing an injustice
to another. Mr.. Schauffier was prudent to wait
til the bishop wasdead before publishing such cal
jimmy against him.

COURT ON GOOD FRIDAY.

An interesting figure passed away a few days
ago at Oshkosh Wis, in the person of Colonel Gabe
Bouck He was of a type nearly extinct. If he had
lived i'll the south his manner and peculiar ideas
would have made him foremost figure. He had
the physique of Indian model and the dignity of
a whole bench of the judiciary.
Apropos of the Lenten season the following
story is recalled of Colonel Bouck:
He was trying an important in the circuit
court at Milwaukee The judge was noted for his
arbitrary rulings. Growing weary of the case he
broke in upon Colonel Bouck by ordering adj
journment.
Until what day." inquired the colonel, not in
the least perturbed by the abruptness of the court
Make it next Friday" replied the judge, adj
dressing his remark to the clerk.
Colonel Brouck always a strict churchman
and had the church calendar days at his fingers
ends
Next Friday is Good Friday" said Colonel
Brouck in voice that was heard throughout the
court room ~
THAT makes no difference to this court" said
the Judge eve shall hear the case on that day"
IF you do, quickly retorted Colonel Brouck in
solemn and measured tone, "you will break rec
ord that has stood during the Christian era. Pom
thus PLATE is the only other judge who held court
on Good Friday"
1t is recalled that the judge wited, and although
he did not order the change from the bench, the
record was changed before court adjourned.-Cath-

A MIXED-MARRIAGE PERIL.

In this day of thousands of divorces, and, of
course just twice many divorced persons there
are Divorces the Catholic party to mixed marriage
takes risk that seldom receives the consideration
due to it by of the frightful possibilities in
volved ease in point is provided in the following
item from the news columns of the Sun, New York:
"Mrs. William Hanger has begun proceedings
in the New Jersey court of chancery to have her
marriage annulled. In the bill Mrs. Hanger is
spoken of only by her maiden name, Lena Boehs
and the somewhat unusual contention is made that
the young woman really was not married at ALL
since Hanger deceived her. telling her he had never
been married while, al mattr of fact, he had Just
been divorced. Mrs. Hanger contends that as she
is a Catholic and her Church does not recognize
divorce, she was not really married. She seeks to
have this point established by the civil law, since
it is already confirmed by the ecclesiastical law.
The papers set forth that Mrs. Hanger has been adj
vised by the canonical authorities of her church
that no marriage took place The Hangers were
married in September, 1901 in a Catholic church,
and seem to have got along pleasantly until month
ago, when Mrs. Hanger learned for the first time
that her husband was divorced She Immediately re
turned to her parents home at 147 Sixteenth ave-
nue., Newark"

IN STRANGE JAPAN.

The Japanese eat more fish than any other peo-
pie in the world. With them meat eating is for
eign innovation, confined to the rich, or rather to
those rich people who prefer it to the national diet
Public story-tellers still earn good livelihood
in Japan. In Toxic alone 800 of them ply their
trade, provided with small table, fan and pa
per wrapper to illustrate and emnhasize the points
of their tales.
Before the westernizing of the Japanese war
department battle was frequently decided by per-
sonal encounter between the two commanders, the
retainers on each side giving their chiefs encour
agement only.
The emperor of Japan is an athlete in his way.
He has introduced football into the land of the
chrysanthemum, and amuses himself by playing an
amateur game in his private grounds with some of
his friends, most of whom are not so fond OF IT.
A spectator in a Japanese theatres on payment
of small extra Fee is permitted TO stand up; and
the person behind him cannot object, though the
latter's view of the performance is INSTRUCTED.
An evidence of the striking uniformity of size
among the japanese is found in the fact that recent
measurements taken of an infantry regiment show
no variation exceeding two inches in height or
twenty pounds in weight.

THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION.

DR.. DeCostas Complete Acceptance Of the Dogma.
1t is interesting to note, says the Freelnan's
Journal, how ioyfully and completely a cultured
Christian mind, conversant with the Scriptures
accepted the doctrine of the Immaculate Concep-
ton when first presented for his belief. Dr. DE,
Costa in his work, From Canterbury to Rome"
gives logical reasons for his faith in this most
cient doctrine of the Universal church. lie says:
..The Protestant reader will possibly feel some
surprise on being told that in approaching the sub
iect of the Immaculate Conception, little difficulty
was experienced, and that the great truth was at
Iost ioyfulIy received Indeed, there came to be
feeling of wonder that what was perfectly reason
able should so long have been hidden from my eyes,
which was all the more noticeable from the fact
that like all the teachings of the Catholic church,

Holy Scriptures and 49, moreover plainly indicated

if John the Baptist needed sanctifcation from his
birth to become herald of the Savior, how much
more necessary was immaculate purity on the part

Redeemer and whose flesh and blood was TO he His
own very flesh and blood Again our blessed Lord
declared that His flesh and blood were the true
Mamma while St. Paul said that all these things

to the Old Testament, it was found that the Mamma
appointed to be received was placed in an ark of

sion seemed irresistible. This pointed to the I'M

The rejection of the Immaculate Conception
therefore, forms complete rejection of the Church
of Christ
"a non-C Catholic might refer to the Magnifcat
as dlstavorng my line of thought but such persons
1t seemed to me, overlooked the fact that while
IN this sublime song the Blessed Virgin praises
God her Savior because He has saved her from sin
there Is nothing in her exquisite language to indi-
cate how this salvation was accomplished.
The assumption which holds that the Magnif-
cat forms confession of sin is purely gratuitous.
The manner in which her salvation from sin had
been effected was doubtless clear to the Virgins
mind, yet it is not expressed. Besides the present
Catholic interpretation of the Magnifcat prevailed
questloned for fifteen hundred years and is in
harmony with the beautiful truth of the Immaculate
Conception.
I'm the face of this record it appeared simply
an impertnenee to scholars and theologans to offer
the Magnificent a confession of sim since it is in
perfect accord with the fact that the Blessed Virgin
was conceived free from all sin, original and ac-
tual."

We subioin some of the prudent cautions which
Dr. SeEinger's article contains:
'The first and principal need is that one inform
himself thoroughly of the tencts of Socialism, espe
cially its religious aspect They must be gotten
from reliable and authentic sources.
"Ihe opponents of Socialism must be fair; and
there is nothing which assures him fairness so much
as an exact knowledge of the principles of Social
ism.
SECONDLY, it is not enough to know what is the
precise teaching of Socialism, but it must besides,
be justly deduced, and the reasoning which holsters
it must be fully grasped to command respect and
hearing.
Further. what is too seldom remembered. So
cialism itself must be distinguished. There is a
Christian Socialism. There are theories and aims
in many questions of public and private economy
which are legitimately advanced and defended. At
tempts to help the working classes not all dam
nable; many opportune, just and praiseworthy.
The Church is not opposed to Socialism of
every kind; she is a friend of the poor; she en-
courages protection and improvement of the condi-
ton of the working classes. Again, she is not
arbter of all disputes between cap
ital and labor, but leaves these question to those
who have the duty and quality to settle them.
Sweeping denunciations should not be inconsider-
atey INDUCED in in this matter"

CATHOLICS IN SALOON BUSINESS.

a correspondent of the New York Sun having
asserted that seven-eighths of the propretors of
saloons in New York City have Catholic names.
that the families attend church on Sundays and
that their children are educated in converts the
editor of a Catholic paper referred the statement
to prominent Catholic priest. whose knowledge
OF the subject is particularly wide and accurate
In the course of his reply the reverend gentle
remarks:
Il have taken the trouble" says the correspond
ent, ito note down the of all the propretors
of saloons iii New York" Now, there are some
5000 of them. To find out how many of these are
Catholics whose families attend church on Sunday
and whose children are sent to converts would be
well nigh impossible. The truth IS in the year 1903
according to my best judgment, not 20 per cent of
the saloonkeepers in New York we're Catholics
CD The requirements Of the Baltimore council of
1885 have been strong influence (a) in forcing
out of business; OBJ i'll preventing others from
going into business; so that twenty years of con-
slant pressure has reduced the percentage to 90 per
cent. 81 From ten to fifteen years ago the brew

keeping and races Is an exceedingly curious ques-

a race, from the first period as immigrants to the
last period as the highest type of citizenship, when
they keep saloons Saoonkeeping is an integral
part of political system founded manhood suf

New York Within short time the valuable fran

start out in race for political preferment and
prominence. The easy road to the goal is by the
saloon business. The saloon gives man opportu-
mites. He has votes to deliver, ETC.
Gas the immigrants become more and more thor
oughly Americanized, they give up the saloon bust
ness for other things more respectable. The Irish
have largely gone through this stage, but the Ital

HELPING OTHERS.

As great and good man was growing old, he
remarked one day that he was sorry to go out Of
the world leaving so much misery in it. That
single sentence tells us almost as much of his char

weeping doing his best always to lessen the misery
about him.

of what we are doing IN it instead OF what we are
getting from it. If we love life because the sun
shines and the sky is blue what shall we do when
storms arc threatening. If we love it because we

TWO TIMELY QUESTIONS.

Should Catholic salute all priests she may
meet on the street, or only those whom she knows
If new curate comes to her parish, should she
bow on meeting him defer doing so until she had
been formally introduced!
Generally speaking "a Catholic should salute
all priests, as mark of respect for their exalted
Office In towns or small cities, where priests are
few in number and unually known to Catholics by
sight at least this rule should be observed. But
since clergymen of other denominations, notably
the Episcopaian, dress nearly like priests as to
deceive sometimes even the elect it is not always
wise to attempt to follow the rule in large cities,
where there is likelihood of mistakes.

MAGNANIMous BOYS.

Horace Mann says: you are made to be kind
boys: generous, magnanimous. If there is boy in
school who has a clubfoot, don't let him know you
ever saw it. If there is boy with ragged Clothes
don't talk about rags within his hearing If there
is hungry one, give him part of your dinner
If there is dull one, help him to get his lessons.
If there is bright one be not envious of him; for
if boy is proud of his talents and another boy
envious of them, there two great wrongs and no
more talent than before. If larger or a stronger
boy has injured you and is sorry for it, forgive
him.
