obtainable history, from the overseers OF Fhaf-

manner by the opulent of any country. This lat

whole world over today, and especially where there
is union of church and state. 1t Is the best
thing under the sun for people to support the
clergy and not have the state interfere in any way
If there were no contemplated confscation OF
church property, the separation law would be
heaven-sent blessing.
When. therefore. scandal, trouble and persecu-

without, let US first ask ourselves if we are free
from all culpability. Let us by all means put our
house in order and tear the moral uncharitable
cobwebs from our own eyes and hearts and, armed
with the breastplate of justice and the shield OF
Christian faith let us go forth and conquer III

SECRET SOCIETY MEMBERS AND
CATHOLICS.

LII IS quite the fashion nowadays to lambast the
followers OF secret societies and socalistic cults
with glaring epithets and lbombastic language con
tanning not one shred OF s9lld argument or sound
reasoning.
The Catholic Church ba,ns secret society be
cause 1t has rites and ceremonies of religion there
by making Itself sect, JUST it bans Protest
ant rehglous body, from Luthleranism to Holy Roll
erism, but this fact in no Way prevents Catholics
from having friendly intercourse with all non
Catholics in their indiidual Hives
st. Paul says man canno9 shun the society of
ul-Chflsuan or heretlcal people unless they would
lea'e the world but he comm fnds the followers of
Christ to scrupulously shun bne who nretends to
be brother and yet lives unekodly If therefore
Catholic is to avoid any onA, it is false Cath
Ole of his own household of tile faith
We believe many on-Cath olics are honestly
mistaken but IN that case they re to he pited and
not 1nsulted Ii we cannot Rason together with
out malice we should be silent. 4 Whichever a non
Catholic, member of a secret Npciety or not. in
suits, bellies or ISLANDERS the ChuIf4h itis only fit

passionate manner.
There are young men in the American Free
Masons who show more respect fow nurls and Sis
tiers of Charity than many of our swn Joung men.
The Free Masons of America are .pt al hostile to
the Catholic Church as are those oA lFralAce. Here
it is more an attitude of indiffer: bee Than open
enmity. No student of modern Frl lch HISTORY but
knows that there have been soml prkvocations

July "a, l9O0.
Had Saturday been the right sort of q
day for the curing of cut grass, 1t would
not have left us subject to the tempta-
ton of working on the Sabbath. The
most of it Ia now in shape for miser-
able Monday, and we are having 1t all
right. Nature placed convenient ele-
walton of land between this particular
hay field and the highway that the
minister uses on the way to and from the
east" where he dispenses the bread OF
life, but the cattle looked on with ap.
proval. Should they happen to be en-
dowed with the power to speak, like
Balaam's donkey, it will be with ap-
proval on some of those judgment days
of winter.
To many rules there are exceptions,
and the rule, the divine rule of Sabbath
conduct, is happily not an exception, II
the words of the Christ are of any
weight. Common sense is an excellent
thing to have on tap in haying time,
when the weather Is bilious.
BY the way, If the weather had been
bitterly dry as is sometimes the case.
there would have been lowing among
the herds for the accustomed cud.
Rather dependent on Him who rules and
manages the affairs of men, If you ever
noticed.
The killed out spots on our little farm
will not lessen the usual abundance, and
the quality is superior, and we are living
in trust that there will be sunshine by.
and-by and all day long. Our growing
time is past.
DR.. whitman called the other day, and
left us some abominably bitter decoc-
ton to put our corporal system In trim.
1t doesn't inebriate, and it doesn't cheer
while the taste is In the mouth.
We meet with Mr.. Tilton frequently.
1t is evident that he has reached that
point in time, spoken of by one of old,
when the "grasshopper is burden, "
when the light and little things of life
are q burden and bore. We have
drawn in double harness with him, more
or less, and we have never nipped ears
nor kicked over the traces. And that Is
a satisfactory thought.

The Birth of . New City.

Prince Rupert, the new city of North
western British Columbia and the Pacific
Coast terminus of the Grand Trunk
Pacific has indeed begun, and the
foundations laid of the coming metropo-
lis of the Western Province of the Do
minion. The camps of the surveyors,
both those of the Dominion and the
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company,
are pitched on and near the future city's
boundaries.
Mr.. Dodge, experimenting the govern
ment survey, has his camp stationed
near the mouth of Tuck's Inlet, just OPP
posite Venn's Passage, in view of historic
Metlakahtla. He intends to make q sur
vey of the coast line waters of the inlet,
and as this will take him considerable
time, he expects to remain in camp until
October, and has accordingly fitted up
comfortable quarters. He says the
Metlakahtla carpenters have the honor of
building the first house on Kaien Island,
and is much pleased with them as work
men.
Farther east, up the inlet where sur
veys are now in progress at different
points, the Grand Trunk Pacific Com.
pany's men are busy in the vicinity of
their respective camps-ole near Seal
Harbor, where the new saw mill will be
built, and one q mile and q half farther
east. Here the wharf and three build
ings will at once be erected, as already
piles for the wharf are being secured.

The total amount of fire risks written
in Maine the past year, according to the

of losses paid 81, 3S9, 1893.
The body of Clara Braley of East Bel
fast, aged II, was found floating near the
shore at NorthpOrt Thursday afternoon.
The girl disappeared the Sunday evening
before. 1t was thought to be case Of
suicide or foul play, but an autopsy re-
vealed no indications of the latter.
Harvey Farnsworth, aged 81, suffered
an attack of heart failure while in bath
ing at Rockport Tuesday and died al
most instantly. A companion named
Wall quickly observed his condition and
carried the body to the shore, where two
physicians for two hours endeavOred to
resuscitate 1t.
The drownings Of Sunday, the 22d, in
Maine, were three young men. Paul
Weber of Union, N. H., was drowned
while bathing at Gray, where he was
employed. Guy II. Furlong, 10 years
old, was drowned at Limerick Mills, and

Edward, the six year-old son Of Joseph
Alley of Fairfield, lost his life Tuesday
by being buried by bank Of sand.
While playing in a sand hole the bank
caved in and he was covered with several
feet of sand. Several young companions
were unable to liberate him before life
had become extinct.
1t Is understood that q survey is being
made for an extension of the Portland
and Rumford Falls Railway from its
junction with the Maine Central at Rum
ford Junction In Auburn through Gray
to Portland. BY some 1t is thought that
the proposed extension simply means
that the road wishes to get to the sea,
while others see in it movement of the
Canadian Pacific to get into Portland
and thus have a winter port there. From
the present northern terminus of the
Rumford Falls and Rangeley Lakes Rail-
road, which is really part of the Port
land and Rumford Falls road, 1t is only
about forty miles to a connection with
the Canadian Pacific at the state border,
and survey of the route has already
been made.
Here is hen story from Millinocket.
Clinton Delano had In his stable barrel
of buckwheat that an old hen discover
ed and thought it capital chance for an
easy breakfast. When she had finished
eating she dropped an egg in the barrel
and went away. This process was con-
tinued until the buckwheat was gone
and the barrel was full of eggs. About
this time Clint discovered the stolen nest
and put head In the barrel, intending
to send 1t away. Being busy man
Clint promptly forgot to ship the barrel
and the matter passed from his mind un-
til one day small army Of chicks came
marching out of the stable. On invest
igating he found that the hen had pick
ed knot out of the head of the barrel
and had set on 1t and Matched the 500
eggs. He says he has the hen and the
barrel and will be glad to show them to
the public.
