OUR ANNIVERSARIES.

This number of The Intermountain and Colo
RADIO Catholic begins the seventh year of the joint
publication of both papers and the twenty-second
year of the founding of the Colorado Catholic at
Denver. This paper has observed the virtue of re-
straint in all things never so much as in the one
particular of selfprase If it is good paper others
have said it was, and that counts best. The Rocky
Mountain News of Denver, commenting time
on an editorial it copied from this paper pro-
nounced The 1ntermountain Catholic the strongest
and most influential newspaper of its faith in the
west. Such fattery was not repeated in print in
this paper before. We prefer to let others do that
sort Of business.
What rejoces the publishers and writer's most
is the heart-to-hear feeling shared with its patrons
Ii is one of interdependenee upon each other the
harmony of thought and action in whatever makes
fer virtue and citizenship and love for humanity,
Ours not to invite that sectarian controversy
which leaves a sour taste in the mouth without
accomplishing the ends which temperate discus
sion plans and provides. Ours rather to make q
clear and fair presentation of facts and invite our
non-Catholic brethren to mediate OH them. Only
when our position is misrepresented by bigots do
we return the attack with interest. but always in
the sober language of truth and decency
And, strange as it may sound, the most gen
erous words of cheer come from our non-Cathohc

of the congregation.
Printed notices to the fair ones requesting them
to observe the rule and remove their hats during
services were circulated. Several declined to OBJ

services a number we're heard to say they would
quit the church rather than remove their handsome
hats. So next Sunday it viii be seen how many pre-
fer hats to pastor-millinery to religion.
Men alege: First-Woman is as attractive
without her hat regardless Of whether the millinery
tag reads $69S or 1884. Second-That the preach
er is at least 100 per cent attractive with
mems hats off. Third-That the wearing of hats
in church is a direct violation of the state law.

ITALIAN UsURER's ECCENTRIC CONSCIENCE

Cardinal Frisco, Archbishop of Naples, has
cepted the task of restoring to the poor the money
taken from them by. the rich,' imposed him by
the will of the late Flippo Florio, rich eccentric
bachelor, who died recently. He made his fortune
of $4,5O0,000 as usurer for the sons of wealthy
parents inclined to be rakes.
When he was 80, Filippo thought he had taken
enough revenge on the rich, whom he hated as OPP
pressors of the poor, and made testament, nam
ing the cardinal, certain notary and a lawyer
as executors.
The bulk of the money goes to the Hospital
for Incurables; the addition Of new wing is pro-
vided ON which only the poorest of the poor shall
be lodged" Over each door the following sentence
is to be set in letters of gold THE money [ took
from the wealthy who took it from the poor, shall
now return to the poor"
The testator lays curse upon those of his
executors who shall deyiate fingers breadth from
my instructions, or who shall use one penny of my
money for the benefit of the wealthy or for them
selves"

If the Bible is 50 clear how comes it that there

and eat this is my body" DR.. Gibbons says thai at
least there are more than one hundred different
interpretations among Protestmts. Watson, Pro
testant bishop, after study of the entire Bible

that he could not draw the truths of Christianity
from it. Even Luther WRITES that to penetrate to
the bottom the of Scripture Is an impossible

declared he would give no dispensations for
the marriage Of near royal relatives. And he is
carrying out his resolve for he refuses his consent
to the betrotha of the Infanta Maria Theresa of

The Catholics of Greater New York are educat-
ing at their own expense $4,000 children while be-
ing taxed for the education of onCatholics, thus
saving the taxpayers $3OO0,000 year. If the 14o
parochial schools were closed, how could the city
educate every child, when thousands are on half
time? How could the public schools of Salt Lake
provide for all the Catholic children with the pres
ent congestion and with some teachers handling
classes of over eighty pupils in each class!

A Baptist minister, the Rev. Nathan Bailey. Of
Peabody Mass, who objected at the convention Of
clergymen of his denomination III Boston, to reso
buttons of coincidence on the death of Mayor Col
Inns because the mayor was Catholic, must have
felt pretty lonesome, for not only he the only
one to display such prejudice, but other ministers
took pains TO show they did not agree with him.
Il am sure" said the Rev. Herbert johnson, the
whole conference regrets the remarks much as
do. If do pass this resolution it will stand
disgrace to US before this city" Mr. Bailey's
the only dissenting vote The Protestant clergy
of Boston, according to the Catholic Transcript,
are of vastly different caibre than this little bigot.

these plans have encountered the fierce hostility of
that financial power concentrated in the hands OF
the few" already mentioned. All the more reason
why they should be given fair test so as to dis
cover through operation whether they make for the
good or the injury of the masses. Even should
both fail the people are no worse off than before

WHO is PROUD OF MCCALL?

A Kansas City newspaper circulated in Denver
and pretending to be product of the latter place
calls attention to one of the local advertisers and
to what he advertises in the usual form of adula-
ton easily recognized at the country editors. The
gentleman BATTERED by such local mention is a
Knight Of COLUMBUS; and he is ageGt at Denver of
the New York life whose bland able pres7

expected that such annor6fSment will bring grist
to the mill Of the New York Life antSits agent in
Denver, IN spite Of the toasting which the New
York Life and its president daily endure9oser the
hot grill of investigations If it does it will be
wonder, indeed 1t will be because that agent is
popular man and good hustler, not that he is
a Knight Of Columbus along with his chief. That
part should be cut out in exploiting business, especl
ally its display in newspaper type. dozen differ
ent agents belonging to dozen different Catholic
societies could reasonably object to such partially
for Knight of Columbus. However. kindly feel
ing goes out for this Denver agent OF the New
York Life, because of his present business position
in the Colorado metropolis. According to the news
of today (Thursday) Colorado will outlaw the New
York Life unless that corporation gets rid OF Nc
Call and Perkins. Nevada has already done so.
There is a disposition among most Catholic
editors to carry eulogy to extremes; to 'slop over
in the racial colorngs they give prominent men OF
the Catholic faith. Unfortunately, in looking for
the virtue of the man they do not go to his father

YACHT SEASON WAVES.
Final Nezc-York Yacht Club Races
This Week and Neat.

The New-York Yacht Club is winding up its
season with brilliant array of contests Ii
has, in fact, accomplished more in the racing
line this year than in any previous season. The
class that has contributed most to this result
has been the "thirties." seventeen OF which were
designed and built by Herreshcft for members
of the club. With the exception Of the Linnett,
the Pintail and the Tabasco, which were
sold by H F Lippitt. the other fourteen boats
have consistently raced at every opportunity.
The Nautilus the Phryne and the Cara Mia
have the greatest number of wins so far. and in
a few days all will have a final chance in
series of four races on the Sound for the cups
offered by the flag officers of the New-York
Yacht Club The dates chosen are September
10, 90 81 and D. and the course off Glen Cove.
The next big contest under the management
of the club will be the race for the Astor cups,
off Newport, on Wednesday and the races for
the cups offered by Vice-Commodore Henry
Walters. over similar courses, on Thursday. If
these are not postponed, there will be steam
yacht race on Friday, starting at noon off
Cranes Neck. opposite Bridgeport. The course
is to be east three-quarters south, from there to
Herod Shoal. off New-Haven. and return a total
distance of forty miles.
The race will be between the turbine yacht
Tarantula. owned by w H Vanderbilt. tr. and
Howard Gould's twin screw, high speed yacht
Niagara ". The Fitesse, and fast twin
screw yacht, owned by General Brayton Ives,
mas been invited TO participate in the race. The
race between the Tarantula and the Niagara is
a match for g 900 side, between the owners
and the race between the ViteSse and the Taran-
tula will be for the Niagara CUP, presented by
Mr.. Gould TO the club for annual competition
The first race between the Tarantula and
the Niagara " took place on September % of
last year. for stakes of the same amount over
a course of thirty-nine nautical miles, on the
Sound, starting and finishing OF the Stepping
Stone Light. The Niagara " won the race by
8 minutes 80 seconds. Since then the Tarantula
has received new boilers and new propellers. and
the engines have been thoroughly overhauled,
with a view TO increasing speed.
1t is quite possible that other yachts may
enter for this race, and if so it will be all the
more interesting The steam yacht Colonia, flag
ship of the New-York Yacht Club. will be the
committee boat, from which the time OF the
start and the finish will be taken.
