Where My Love Lies Dreaming
"Swanee Ribber," while more remun-
erative to the publisher than any song
ever written, brought but $500 to it's
author. What has seemed most
strange is that, while Foster was a
Northern man and personally but little
acquainted in the South, his most
popular songs were those Of Southern
life. The great secret of the success
of his South IN ballads was his fidelity
to nature-his. simplicity of style and
peculiar musical construction.
The celebrated ditty, "Swanee Rib
ber." was written on the banks of the
Suwanee river, in Florida, ana 1t first
made It's appearance in 1851. Arduous
labor and the Bohemian life in New
York was too much for Fosters consti-
tuition. His physicians prescribed tn
toxtcants, and the invalid became a
victim to the habit. AS a last resort
he was sent. tn Florida, and lived In
Jacksonville several months.
=. 1t was during this sojourn that F'os-
tel accompanied a hunting party to The
Suwanee river, w!lole a camp was
established; AMI. while hts companions
searched for game, Foster spent his
time among the old plantation dariseys,
and it was here that he wrote the sang
and the music.
Here, indeed, were the "old folks at
llome"-A white haired darky sitting
on log by the cabin door, stripping
corn, and shambling about among the
pigs and poultry old Duah, with a yell
low bandana on her silvc" locks Groom =
ing some familiar song. Yes 1t was
real, and the SUNNY peace and beauty
Of it all were just what fitted we'll
with the sentiment OF that touching
and tender air which has gone all over
the world.
The hopeless sufferer returned to his
childhood scenes at Pittsburg. where
he died in 1864. and lies buried in Alle-
gheny cemetery. BY his request his
body was lowered into the grave TO
the sound of his favorite song, "Old
Folks at Home

California Passenger Travel,

On account of the great increase in
the volume Of passenger trafnc to CAL
ifornia the Southern Pacific has found
it necessary to place in service three
new trains-one via it's Ogden Route;
the second over the damous Sunset
Route between New Orleans, Los An
geles and San Francisco; the third
to take care of the business passing
over the Shasta Route. ...
In addition to these trains several
through tourist car lines have, been
placed In operation from various East
ern cities to California, among then,
being one from st. Louis and another
from Chicago

Here is work Tor the knights of Co
lumbus that will show. mettle. Let
them be the leaders in this movement.
Let them gladly lead the fight. Let it be
a source of credit to every knight that
he has done something to prevent the
sale or use of French goods.
Start with the women Of the family.
Tell them how the French nuns were
torn from their converts. Tell them
how they were assaulted personally
and forced into exile. Tell them how
when the priest was driven out of the
Church at La Nouvelle in the diocese
Of Carcassone, the Mayor and band
Of men took prostitutes into the church
and. with the courtesans-as mock peni-
tents, installed themselves in the con-
fessional and enacted q most BIAS
phemous and indescribable scene be-
fore the altar where the Holy sacry-
flee had been offered up. Tell them
how the same band put a dog into

one of that band has ever been pun
ished in any way for that awful desc
Grafton.
The knights Of Columbus have gen.
erouAy supported many movements
for the advancement sfof Catholicism
and the preservation Of the faith, as
we'll as for the reclamation of the fallen
and the conversion Of the non-Catho-
lies. Let them unite for systematic
boycott upon the products of coun-
try whose government permits the
awful blasphemies and dissertations
that have already resulted from tho
attack upon Catholicism in France.
Let the Knights Of Columbus stand to-
gether to bring the French Govern
ment to a relization Of the wrath OF
and outraged sentiment of American
Catholics by an emphatic and con-
tinued boycott upon every article OF
French manufacture OF production.
The Irish standard., 1906-12-01
Work for tho Knights.

Several Of the. state councils of the
knights of Columbus have passed
resolutions of sympathy for the con-
dition Of the Catholics in France, an0
condemning the attitude Of the French
government towards the property or
the Catholic Church and the conditions
of worship, says the New York Reg
lister.
The French government has been de-
nounced in hundreds of Councils. Ad-
dresses innumerable have been made
upon the subject The National Coun-
Gil adopted resolutions of sympathy
for the French Catholics. The sentl--
ment of the Order is undoubtedly
against the government of France and
in favor of the attitude of the Catholic
Church towards the intidel govern
ment Of France. .tH
This is as it should be-. 1t is what
is expected Of Catholic and Christian
knights. 1t Is manly and sympathetic.
But it is not enough.
The knights Of Columbus now WELD
a. tremendous power. In numbers
nearly 10000, they are composed. OF
grown men, nearly every man Of whom
is wagc-worker Of some standing, or
a property holder. They are men OF
standing in their community or parish.
They can influence others. They can
certainly influence their own families
and immediate circles Of friends.
With splendid Organization, they
can take up this question Of material
support of the Catholic Church's at
titude towards the French government.
and be the leaders in the boycott Of
French goods ana manufacturers. Ev-
cry knight of Columbus can assist in
getting the members of his own Coun-
Gil in this movement. He can at once
stop the use Of every artiple Of French
manufacture in his household. He can
refuse French materials or French
goods everywhere and demand that
those of other manufacture be substi.
tuted.

but a. re-discovery and a. perfection.
He worked hard, night an day. until
finally he paralyzed his whole left SIDE
But his truths were not yet expounded,
so he continued to work. He turned his
attention to the diseases Of men. He
gave up his time to discover a spe-
ciflc germ for each disease with which
to combat parasitic diseases. He dis.
covered a virus incubation which pre-
vented hydrophobia from dog bites,
and so great was the demand Of the
world at large for his treatment that
he set up in Paris the Pasteur Insti.
tute. His laboratory there resembled
a menagerie. He kept mad animals
there, and when victims of their bites
came for treatment he injected a
lymph from the virus of one Of the
animals. The cure was Immediate;
the lives saved by the process innum-
cradle. Step by step he continued mis-
discoveries until he proved to the
whole medical world the value Of in
oculation with it's consequent humane
remedy, vaccination. At the time Of his
death nine years ago the world had
recognized his ability and the worth of
his discoveries, and he died with the
satisfaction of success and universal
fame consoling him. To another that
would be an ideal death; but Pasteur
found his true consolation in the de-
vout Catholic life he led.
Pasteur finds emphasis in American
life in the Fasteur institutes which
have ben set up in imitation Of his
first institute at Paris. Harvard holds
him in loving memory; the expressed
wish of it's president shows why. 1t
was meet that the environment of the
new school should have some such
setting. It is meet, too, that in that
school, the greatest Of it's kind in ex-
istence, there should be among the
directing heads one who in this life Of
ours emphasizes all that was best in
Louis Pasteur's life-Dr. Thomas
Dwight, the Parkman professor Of an
ato1ny at the Harvard Medical School
and one Of the leading men Of the pro-
fession in the present day world. DR..
Dwight does ef1ectiyely what Louis
Pasteur did. with graceful eminence
and fitness he: combines with his duties
as head Of the medical school where
he cares for the physical body. his
work as head of the st. Vincent de
Paul in this archdiocese where his
philanthropic work does SO much for
the soul stuff with which he deals
Pasteur is well portrayed in the char
acter of the Parkrnan professor and
the medical world holds the one in as
high esteem as they hold the other In
fond memory. They meet on the COM
mon ground Of Catholicity, and as ef-
fective and accomplishing Catholics.
Pasteur was the type Of past great
ness; Dwight typifies the glory Of pres
ent accomplishment. Both were in
tensely humane and intensely Cath
o1ic

the outset, especially that Congress
seems disposed TO pull down the tariff wall
which has stifed trade between the islands and
their natural market, the United States. This
accomplished, and the roads in operation the
FflipinOs will pay the freight
Naturally indOlent, the native OF these islands
would have little value as a Iaborer were it not
for his saving grace of vanity and love of dis
play, TO crafty which he will work most dill
gently. The railroads, linking provinces across
whose borders the dialects and customs are DIFF
ferent will bind the Filipinos closer to the cap
ital city. Here the F1liplnos already have dis
carded the native dress for the more expensive
habiliments of the foreigner. and the provincial
man, eager to initiate his Manila brother. will
work that he may make good showing. The
railroad. it is safe to say will be more OF civ
iltzer than the soldier or the school teacher. Its
work will not appear the surface but it will
appeal TO the untutOred Filipino more than force
or persuasion. AS the desire for higher life is
inculcated in the poor and ignorant so will the
percentage of profit to the railroad grow and so
will the Philippine question advance toward
its final solution:
