WOMEN IN CHURCH cHolRs
Policy to Exclude Them from Choirs

Despite the fact that Pope Plus

should be no more women in Cath
Ole church choirs and that ecclc,
siastical music, as distinguished
from what Father Wagner, of.
Brooklyn, terms "holy ragtime,'
should be sung, little attention is

bishop has notified the clergy IN
der him to reOrganize their chOirs
and have only male voices, but his
example is not being followed.
Choirmaster Edmund de Vine, of
the cathedral parish in Kansas

women singers from American
Catholic choirs would mean to
abolish the choirs. "}}e would

THREE GRAVES IN LONDON
Most Interesting Tombs to Be Found
in EAST Walk" of Cloisters at
Westminster Abbey.

In the "east walk" of the clois-
tiers at Westminster Abbey there
are three most interesting graves,
those of Thomas Betterton and
his wife, better known as Bess
Saunderson, and the everfascin-
ating Mrs. Bracegirdle. OF all the
people who lie within those hal,
lowed walls, it may safely be said
that Betterton has the best claim
of all to this privilege. No small
measure of praise must be accord
ed to this gifted actor for the fact
that he almost more than anyone
else was responsible for the resus-
citation of the English drama
after the stern regime of the Puri.
tans. Mrs. Bracegirdle was
either adopted by BettertOn or
placed under his care, and she very
soon took all hearts in London by
storm. She achieved her greatest
success in acting in Congreye's
plays. Her artistic career, how.
ever, was a comparatively short
one, for Mrs. Bracegirdle retired
from the stage in dudgeon when
Anne Oldfeld first became her
dangerous rival. She lived on in
honorable retirement, and be
loved by all, high and low, far and
near, until the year 174S, when she
was buried here beside her old
friends the B|ettertons.

COSTLY DIAMOND BY MAIL.
Cullinane Stone Sent from South
Africa by the Post Before
War Peril.

Everybody likes a diamond
story, and the history of the fam.
GUS Cullinane diamond is told in
the Boston Herald. Some months
ago the world was astounded by
the finding of this stone, and it has
convinced experts that the South
African mines have yet in store
many whose weight may be ex.
pressed in pounds troy and not in
carats.
1t is not generally known how
this stone was sent to England.
Just as the mail for Europe was
being closed at the johannesburg
post Office an ordinary-looking
packet, addressed to a firm in Hat.
ton gardens, London, was handed
in at the window to be registered.
1t weighed a little over a pound,
so the charge of a penny a half
ounce and two pence extra for
registration was paid, and the
packet was stamped, sealed and
thrown into the bag along with
other registered parcels for the
mail boat. Nobody knew, apart
from the post Office authorities,
that the ordinary-loOking little
bundle had been insured for
$2,500,000. Not one of the clerks
or officials dreamed they were
handling what was literally worth
a kings ransom.

CIVILIZATION NEEDS BOTH.
Dreaners and Practical Men Are of
Equal Use in the World To-Day
Good That They Do.

Said a shrewd observer of men
and things: The practical, bus.
Ting man of today is very apt to
think that ali the progress of the
world is due to him and his kind.
"Yet if there had been none but
practical men among the earliest
savages, civilization would have
made very slow progress. The
merely practical savages would
have gone on catching fish and
hunting wild animals in the old
way. 1t was the dreamers among
them who thought out the canoe
and the bow and arrow, and so by
degrees the sailing ship and
the gun.
"All the inventions came from
the dreamer, the practical men
merely carrying out and utilizing
his ideas.
THE dreamers among men gave
us the arts and the sciences. But
too often they are misjudged, for
is is hard for a man of action to re.
alize that his reflective brother
can be at work in as real a sense as
he himself is, and that the study
and the laboratory are at least as
important as the workshop and
the factory"
