German immigrants, that came around
the Horn in the S. S. Ehlenfels. He
was assigned to the charge of the Ger
man school at Lihue, Kauai, where for
seventeen years he did very effective
work as an educator. Owing to age
and i'll health he returned to Germany

scenes of his youth. There he died on

sift carefully the story of those wars,
so as to give to the civil power and to
popular uprisings their share of re-

PAPAL AUTHORITY.

In the April number of The North
American Review Archbishop Ireland
asserts and maintains the rightfulness
and the necessity of 1.-The Dogmatic
Authority of the Papacy." The Arch
bishops article was called forth by
statements and theories advanced in a
recent paper by Mr. Charles Johnson
on THE Catholic Reformation and the
Papacy" 1t is in effect a defence Of
the recent Encyclical on Modernism,
which the Archbishop describes as a
vindication of religious truth against
certain vital errors that have come
into vogue in modern times. Some OF
these errors, notably the new theology,
the Archbishop analyses, and he
claims that in this age of religious
restlessness the Papacy is the sole
teaching power in Christendom, with
out which Christianity would soon be a
thing of the past. He says
AN objection against the Papal
claim to dogmatic authority raised by
Mr.. Johnston is that, logically and in
fact, claim of the kind leads to reli-
gious persecution, as is proven by the
wars of religion noted in the annals Of
past ages. That dogmatic teaching in
faith and morals begets in the teacher
the spirit of persecution, l very
promptly deny. And there is no need
that | discuss the wars of religion or
which the story is evoked. To under
stand those wars we should under,

A cable was received yesterday by
Davies & Co. from Captain Phillips of
the Aorangi which was in port at Suva
asking if it will be possible to arrange
a cricket match on the arrival of the
Aorangi on April 20.
1t is possible that the team on board
the Aorangi is the Marylebone Cricket
Club team which has been touring
Australia. Robert Anderson will have
charge of the Honolulu team if one is
formed, and no doubt large number
will offer their services, so as to make
the game an assured thing.
