If religion is losing its hold upon the people,
as some persons and writer's are fond OF lightly
asserting, there is no evidence that teachers Of
religion are not holding places of strong affection
in the minds and hearts Of their followers. The
tributes to the notable clericals, Bishop Coleman
and Father Birmingham, whose deaths were sore
Affections upon the community, were remarkable
in the highest sense, and yet how deserved,
owing to the exalted character and high standing
OF the men who are mourned. Their lives were
devoted TO the welfare of their fellows, and in
