THE DEMOCRACY OF THE CROSS.

The Chicago Inter- ocean quotes
from Il sermon delivered by Arch
bishop Glcnnon i'm Baltimore last Sun
day delivered ut the centenary of the
Baltimore Cathedral. Tho quotation
commented upon by the Inter-Ocean
is as follows: DO the people demand
equality? Do they ask for an even
chance in the struggle of life: is the
brotherhood of man IL dream they
would see come true? The Church,
needless Of the passing clamor. care
less of mere surface thought. holds
up for all good mems refuge the
chanSclcSs democracy of the Cross
The comment of the Inter- Ocean is as
follows:
equality in all things OF this world,
is indeed the vaincst OF visions. Men
are born with varied abilities and the
results of their labors have To be
equally varied. With some the result
is wealth: With others knowledge;
with still others peace SO it goes.
The result is as varied as the effect
that gets it.
The poor scholar oppressed by his
poverty often feels that he should have
shared the wealth that his unl"arned
neighbor ignorantly sQuanders-fccls
that he could have acquired as much
of this worlds goods had he cared to.
There is the rub! He was not born
with the desire and his environment
did not give him the impulse to care
for wealth above all other things so
he acquired instead the things he did
care for We may try by education
and Legislation to make men equal IL,
this worlds goods but We can never
altogether succeed. The best W.. can
do is what this Republic does more
nearly than any other nation. That
is tn equip every child, so far as pos
sibc, for material success and tu en-
lc:lvor to make all men equal before
the l;rw.
l;ut there is one relation of life in
which men can be truly and fully
equal. That is in what Archbishop
Glennon has finely termed "the de-
mocrlcy of the cross" That is the
free and equal Offering to each human
soul and an equal share which each
soul has of the means of grace and
the hope OF glory

claimed England as his native country
and attempted to have the credit given
to Ireland. but it seems that the
judges placed the credit where the
Irish athlete least desired it should go.
Most Of the Australians are lrishmcn.
This great international athletic
festival has demonstrated what has
been 50 often demonstrated before that
the Irish furnish Il great majority of
racial qualities are such that they
are peculiarly fitted for contests in
which Drawn and muscle and quick
thinking are necessary to bring sue
cess. The successful athlete must be
strong of body and fleet of limb. but
that alone is not sufficient. He must
be quick in mind and steady of nerve.
He must have unfaltering courage and
blamclcss morals. No man was ever

of England is no mean distinction
1t is Il matter of which the Irish ma
tionality the world over may we'll feel
proud. for it speaks well not only for
the natural gifts Of the people out for
their right living ana it may be that
some time those who think that the
Irish are fitted only for policemen and
salOonkecpers will be convinced. even
if it is against their will, that such is
not the ease.

IRISH ATHLETES.

There is now taking place in the
ancient city of Athens a Field Day in
which the best athletes from all coun-
tries are competing for the highest
honors just as the Greeks before the
Christian Era used to compete for the
laurel crown. 1t is Il competition
limited to amateur athletes and there
is no compensation or reward of any
kind connected with victories except
the honor OF victory itself. which is the
highest reward that can be bestowed
upon II true athlete. \ remark

is that a great majority of those who
represent English speaking countries
bear Irish names. The great American
athlete is Martin Sheridan of the New

Rev. DR.. Phelan, editor of the Vest
ern Waterman, has a forcible and
concise way of stating any proposition.
Here is his comment in reference to
the recent divorce decision: Lawyers
are sorry set of numbskulls il the
Supreme Court OF the United States
and the Supreme Court Of New York
are any judges. For a hundred years
these ponderous blockheads have hal
an idea that you could unite IL knot
without having both ends Of the string
in your hand: in other words. that to
declare Il divorce it was not necessary
that the court should have jurisdiction
over both parties to the original COW
enant." That appears to be about the
situation, Reverend Editor, in IL nut
Of a fiction rather than IL failure Of
perception on the part Ut lawyers
which led to the error. They created
a beautiful fiction, for themselves in
which they reasoned that IL court had
jurisdiction when it did not have The
knot which they attempted to unite
was not one Of the hard knots where
both ends OF the string rest together
but rather /; loop-knot where by ma
nipulating one end of the string tho
other end slips out.

American government for the friar

has been settled by the Holy Father,

separate sums and be distributed yearly
by the Vatican. one to the Philippine

other to the institutions erected by
the religious orders in the Philippines
and the third to the orders, largely
for their missions in the Far East and
also to support the aged friars who
