GREED OF MONEY CRIME
OF AGE, SAYS BISHOP
Catholic Preiate, Addressing consre-
CATION In New York, Denounces
Present Tendency Toward
Materialism

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 26.-Every Cath
Ollie church and the houses within the
diocese of New York were in festal
array today, while perhaps million
men, women and children gave thanks
for the progress Catholicism has made
in New York since 1t was formally es-
tablished 100 years ago.
1t was the beginning of the week OF
rejoicing in honor of the completion OF
century of activity.
The center of interest was st. Pat
rick's cathedral. Cardinal Logue oc-
cupied the archbishop's throne at to-
days service and gave the blessing at
the close. At the end of the first gos-
pei Archbishop Farley entered the pull
pit and in a few happy words welcomed
Cardinal Logue to this country. lie
then delivered a sermon, in the course
of which he reviewed the history OF
Catholicism in New York, spoke of the
numerous patriots it had given to the
country, referred to the parochial school
system and it's influences on the morals
of a community, then closed with a
word on the tendency of the age.
you all know, my brethren, as l
know" he said, t'that the tendency OF
the age is materialistic; that even some
of our own brethren at times have not
been proof against this materialistic
tendency All, is il not TRUE today that
money, evoE among men who profess to
believe in Christianity, is the law. is it
not confirmed by the daily chronicle.
sad and shameful as ii is, that wealth
turns to stone the hearts of fathers
and mothers. and by crushing out Chris
tian principles tends to annihilate the
love of children for parents and the
love of parents for their offspring. !.
This is the crying crime of the age"

GETTING I'm LINE
FOR SAENGERFEST
GERMAN SOCIETIES REACH
FINAL AGREEMENT
Choruses Are Rehearsing Now That
Fleet interruption Permits Re-
sumption of Committee
Work

With some jarring notes eliminated
from the committees of the forthcom-
ing Pacific coast saengerfest it is be-
lieved plans will now go ahead to make
the affair success.
The Arions are not in hearty SYM
pathy with the idea, it is stated be-
cause of personal objections to some of
the committeeman, and the Turner's will
assist only as individuals; but all other
German singing societies have now
lined up with the coming fest.
1t will be held late in the year, the
fleet reception having delayed active
work on the arrangements.
The recent visit of two commits
sioners from San Francisco societies,
who reported that enthusiasm for the
festival was great there, has instilled
new life into the plans. 1t is certain
big delegations will come from Wash
ington, Oregon and Northern and Cen
trail California.
The concerts will be given at Shrin-
ers' auditorium, and Chutes park may
be used also. These questions all will
be finally settled in a few days.
In the meantime all choruses are re-
hearsing, and the financial end of the
fest is being taken care of by com
mittees.
San Francisco expects to entertain
the coast singers in 1910, when the bay
city will be practically rebuilt.
