received, from all, save five, reports
of the various plans of work which

CIVIC VIRTUE.--A SERMON
Cardinal Gibbons Makes Strong Plea For Civic Right
eOusneSS and Obedience to Lawful Authority

This excerpt of a good government
sermon by the distinguished prelate
is published by request of the Ma
tional Municipal league. 1t admir-
ably supplements that of the Rev.
Newton M. Hall, of Springfield,
Mass, published month ago.
Cardinal Gibbons sermon, delivered
in the Roman Catholic Cathedral,
Baltimore, prior to the recent cleo
ton, is remarkable forceful appeal
to citizenship.
Taking as his text, Render to
Caesar the things that Caesars, and
to God the things that are Gods"
the Cardinal said:
'aThe words of Christ embody the
whole duty Of man, so far as his
obedience to all lawful authority is
concerned. No greater natural bles-
sing can exist in community than.
to find good order, tranquility, and
security Of life and property firmly
obtained by the reign of law.
".Order is Heavens first law Now
there are three elements which as
| pire and which are necessary to
maintain this order in domestic and
social life. First, the enactment of
wise and judicious Legislation for
the government of the common
wealth. Second, judicial and ex-
ecutive authority Interpreting, ad-
| ministering and enforcing these en-
actments. Third, law-abiding citi-
zens, or subjects, faithfully SUBMIT
ing to these ordinances. The truth
applies to the whole range of human
life.
"Look into the kingdom of Goo
that is within you. Contemplate
your soul, which is world in mini
allure. That little world is inhabi
ted by various tenants which live
move and have their being. Yo
have there an intellect and will an
memory and Imagination. You hav
inclinations, emotions and passion
which are swayed to and fro an
r jostle one another like permiscu
GUS. crowd.
I'm this kingdom of the soul Go
has written His law You have
a conscience to interpret and enforc
this law. So long as your facultie
s and passions are subservient to tn
voice of conscience, peace reigns
! the kingdom of the soul. But a
Z. soon as the passions rebel again:
:, conscience, anarchy, disorder, an
) tumult hold sway and the soul
tormented by remorse.'
n Cardinal Gibbons applied h
$ thoughts to the domestic kingdom
the family, and next drew a parall,
S between the church and temper;
: government. He said, continuing:
9sOur Savior tells us that we al
d bound not only to render to Go
}, the things that are Gods, but ais
t to Caesar the things that are ca
sar's. We owe allegiance to til

WILL CELEBRATE
ITS CENTENNIAL
TODAY is THE HuNDREDTH ANNI-
vERSARY OF THE oRGANIZA-
TON OF THE SIXTH INFANTRY.
OBSERVED AT THE POST.

Today at the various posts where
sdetachments of the Sixth United
States infantry are stationed the
troops will celebrate in fitting man
ner the one hundredth anniversary of
the organization of the regiment. At
Fort Lincoln there will be dress pa
rade at $3.50 a. H., followed by fitting
exercises. In his order calling atten-
ton to the event, the commanding Of
ficer says:
1'Organized under the act Of con-
gress of April IL, 1903, this regiment
served conspicuously in the important
engagements of the war of 1912, civil
and Spanish American wars; against
the Indians on the border, and in
Florida, and throughout the incidental
instruction in the Philippines. It was
the first command to build United
States fort west of the Missouri river,
and among the earliest protectors of
the emigrants along the old Santa Fe
trail.
From the heights of Queenstown
in 1872, under its first colonel, Jonas
Simonds, to the famous charge at San
Juan and the gallant assault at Mount
Dajoj, we look down the long range of
illustrious leaders and soldiers whose
deeds are part of the nations history.
4 Upon so suspicious an occasion,
therefore, it is directed that this day
be made commemorate by suitable ex-
ercises at the various posts now gar.
risoned by this regiment, an that as
many as possible repair under proper
formation to chapel or other appro
pirate services upon that day, where
by short and pertinent addresses, they
may be reminded that those now sur.
rounding its colors are zealously tx
prepare always to uphold and guard
their splendid heritage, and to so con
duct themselves in the hour of trial

temporal powers as well as to the
spiritual rulers. The same Lord
who commands US to obey the Divine
law requires us also to uphold the
civil laws of the nation. And sure
ly, of all people on the face of the
earth, the American citizen should
take a special delight in submitting
to the legislation imposed upon him
and of being loyal to his country
and to its institutions
Drawing comparison between the
despotic conditions of Old World
countries and America, the Cardinal
spoke of the cheerfulness with which
Americans ought to submit to faith
full observance of the law. He said:
mo man can be a good Christian
who sets at defiance the laws of the
commonwealth. The man that
breaks the laws of the state is vio-.
| lating at the same time some COM
| mandment of the decalogue.
| THE citizens who buys or sells
votes, who creeps into political pow
1 er by intrigue and bribery, is a thief
/ and is transgressing the command
ment which says Thou shalt not
| steal!'
"The moral condition of the state
is what we ourselves make it. It
is our own creation, for the state
is composed of units Of citizens. The
destiny of the commonwealth under
God is in our hands. But while
it is clear that the private citizen is
bound to respect and honor the civil
magistrate, it is equally clear, es-
pecially in constitutional govern
ment like ours, that the citizen has
!, an undoubted right to criticize the
official conduct of the public func-
: tionaries.
), A calm, temperate and dispas
i sionate judgment passed upon tn,
official acts of those in authority

S 1t admonishes the servants of tn

: ings, and delinquences, and afford
to them an opportunity to correc
d their mistakes. 1t also remind

S they are the servants, and not tn
e masters of their constituents =
n Cardinal Gibbons admonishe
S against temperate, unjustified crii
It icism, and emphasizes the need {
d doing civil duty according to tn
is Christian standard of Righteousness
He said, in conclusion:
is Above all, let US pray the Lor
1, of wisdom and justice that He ma
Il inspire our spiritual and civil ru
i ers with a profound sense of the
responsibilities, SO that they ma

not have been treated in more in

his prisoner back. However, in the
meantime Jeffries had taken sick with

Hogan arrived the physician pro.

So Hogan went back empty handed
However, it was though a few days
ago that Jeffries had so far recovered

again. He arrived on No. 8, returning
with his man on No. A.
Jeffries is far from well yet, as il
