Church Going.

It is computed that on the ordinary
Sunday in New York city there are
more than one hundred thousand
transient guests at the different ho-
tells. A recent investigation by an en-
terprising newspaper developed the
fact that the transient guests are bet
ter church goers than the permanent
guests or the regular denizens Of the
city. And this is true Of all kinds
and classes OF hotels and in every sec
tion of the city. In the more expen-
sive hotels the clerks are kept busy on
Sunday mornings and evenings ans
wering inquiries in regard to churches
and calling taxicabs for guests
Among the inferior hostelries the lob
bies are constantly filled with stop
over guests going to church services
and returning from them.

Grosz. He was 80 impressed that he

her father is dead, and she had been
living in London with her mother on

Among Catholics there is a serious

Among Catholics there Is serious
obligation to go to Mass on s5unCay.
This obligation presses whether at
home or travelling Catholics recognize
this duty, and so when they reach a
hotel, they are sure on Saturday to
inquire the whereabouts of the nearest
Catholic church and the hours of
masses. Often they have been to mass
and returned to the hotel before the
other guests are even making their in
quiries about church, and often be-
fore these latter have risen from bed.
Masses begin in the city churches at
s o'clock or earlier on Sunday morn
ing and continue to the High Mass. at
10:30 or IL o'clock, which is the chief
service of the day. In at least two
churches Of New York city there Is
mass every Sunday at 2:30 o'clock a,
nl., q mass that is said chiefly for The
accommodation of night workers, and
in several of the churches the last mass
