The Meaqher Memorial,

There was meeting of the Meagher
Memorial association, at Anaconda,
Mont, on January g. at which various
matters in conenction with the memo
rial were discussed. A committee con-
sisting of Jerry J. Lynch and John J.
O'Meara were appointed to select suit
able inscriptions for the tablets to be
placed in the four panels of the statue.
Two of these tablets will be nine feet
long by two feet six inches wide, and
the other two will be somewhat small
err. 1t is intended that the inscription
on these tablets will briefly sketch the
life works of General Thomas Il.
Meagher in his native land as we'll as
in the United States.
President James H. Lynch announced
that he had received letter from Mrs.
Meagher. widow Of tn general, which
he read as follows:
Rye, N. Y, Dec. 81. 1904.
Mr.. James H. Lynch. President Of
the Thomas Francis Meagher Memorial
Associations:
Dear Sir-My best thanks to your
association in having a statue made to
the memory of my dear husband Cen
eral Meagher. All of us who take pride
in the glorious part taken by the gal
liant Irish brigade in the Army of the
Potomac are indebted to your associa-
ton for what it has done to commem-
crate their services to the United
States government.
There is no better place for memo
rial to General Meagher than Montana.
have no words to express the great
qualification feel in it's realization,
nor my great thanks to your associa-
ton. May heaven give its reward.
have the honor to be very respect
fully yours
ELIZABETH NJ. ]. MEAGHER.
President Lynch has made suitable
reply, coupled with an invitation to
Mrs. Meagher to be the guest of the
association at the unwilling of the
statue at Helena on July 4 next.
Liberty owell-Eternal vigilance
is the price of liberty.
.Powell.-Yes; many a fellow would
be in Jail If he didn't watch out.

SPIRITS.
Possibility Of Their APE. airing 10 Many
Considered.

Considered.
The following article, by Rev. Fran
els B. Cassidy, s. j., appeared in a
symposium on the possibility of spirits
appearing to man, whic. was publish
ed in the Record Herald, of Chicago.
last Sunday:
''Fhere is nothing impossible about
spirits appearing to man There are
numerous cases in Scripture where an
gels appeared to men and coiversed
with them. Among Others we lave the
beautiful instance of the angel con-
Quoting the young Tobias Oil a long
journey, and Of the angels receiving
entertainment in the tent Of Abraham,
and saving Lot from Sodom.
".As to the spirits of the dead cor
vcrsing with man we have the terrible
example in the first Book of Kings,
where the witch of Endor raised up
the spirit of Samuel, who foretold the
awful end of King Saul. Moreover,
we learn from Scripture that God
strictly forbade all dealings with
wizards and spirits of the dead. In
Deuteronomy xviii, 1912, we read:
Neither let there be any wizard nor
charmer nor any one that consulteth
pytfonic spirits or fortune tellers, or
that seeketh the truth from the dead,
for the Lord abhorreth all these
things
1T is evident from Scripture and
all history that divination, fortune
telling and dealing with the devil are
nothing new, since they were practiced
ut all times. Moreover, all those
things have always been prohibited by
God.
what is to be thought of spiritual
ism?
"Spiritualism is said to consist in
| calling up the spirits Of the dead
How much of it is imposture and how
much Of it genuine it is not always
! easy to distinguish. Many of the So
J called spirits are mere tricks and
sleightof- hand performances. STILL
+; making allowances for certain
amount Of imposition, it seems to be
true that some manifestations of spir.
itualism can not be accounted for by
natural means.
"The question then arises, whether
these spirit manifestations are pro
duced by the spirits Of the dead OF
| whether they are the work Of the devil
The second Baltimore council said
1T can hardly be doubted that at least
some of the manifestations of spirit
ual!sm must be attributed to the
devil, since they can scarcely be ex
planned in any other way Catholic
theologians in general hold that tn.
spirits which appear at the command
Of mediums are manifestations of the
demon. for it is idle to suppose thai
the souls Of the just who are enjoy
ing the beatific vision should he ut thu
beck and nod of every diviner or me
dunn, ready to satisfy vain curiosity
And the souls of the damned as a rule
are not allowed to leave their abod,
of punishment to hold converse witt
the living.
"Spiritualism, then, rs a cult Is re
garded by the Catholic church as al
invention of the devil. AS nm act o.
preternatural power it is Chased will
divination, magic, fortune telling ant
other superstitious practices which
have always been forbidden by Cox
and condemned by the Church"

The spiritual seance was in full
blast.
1.-THE spirit of Deacon Skinner is

"Hello. Deacon" exclaimed one of
his ex-neighbors, "is it hot enough for
you?"
