Married Ministers and the Church.

Writing in the catholic World" for
October the Rev. Louis O'Donovan, D.
D., discusses the question whether the
Church could not accept married nom
Catholic ministers as priests and allow
them to retain their wives. The de-
cisions Of councils which he quotes are
most interesting; and from them he
decides in the negative. He says:
Several months ago fifteen non Cath
Ollie ministers. almost simultaneously,
went over to Rome" and the belief
obtains in high places that very many
more would soon follow were they, be-
ing married men. allowed to become
priests and keep their wives To them,
therefore, If not also to US. it cannot
be an uninteresting question whether
or not the Church should offer such
terms to these "other sheep" And
when we recall that not many years ago
in England, a minister brought his
whole congregation with him when he
came into the Catholic Church, one may
fancy the proportions that might be
assumed by a tidal wave "Romewards"
We're the dixie of priestly .>celibacy al
lowed to sink before the sea of pros
pective home coming ministers on both
sides of the Atlantic.
The question is not, of course whether
or not celibacy is to be maintained as
a sine qua non for the clergy in gen.
eral. Neither is it whether or not con-
verified ministers shall be allowed to
marry after being ordained priests But
whether or not non-C Catholic ministers
already married may become Catholic
priests and continue to live with their
yrriE

crusader; the patron saint of the city.
Immediately below him was the dais

Out on the slope, stretching away in

OF young worshipers. Their little
heads were bowed in long rows. The
white dresses of the little girls flashed
brightly in contrast with the dark

great fringe of grown-ups' who stood

A hush of reverential awe stilled the

A charming Louisville girl, the daugh-

ways been famed for her habit of saw
ing things because they may come in
handy, and this summer the family is
telling a story on her which she would
give a good deal to suppress. She had
been away at White Sulphur Springs
and being especially popular, had be-
come the recipient of sch a variety OF
souvenirs that before coming home she
sent one trunk ahead in which she put
many of the various trinkets for her
smaller brothers and sisters, and some
summer frocks which had become too
faded for wear. Her mother indus
triously unpacked the trunk, and finally
when she reached the bottom, was
transfiXed to find several hundred poker
chips and about a half dozen decks of
cards. When her Mortified father later
demanded an explanation, the daughter
quite innocently and unconsciously said:
why, father. they were left in the
room 1 was occupying by some former
occupants, and l just took them be-
cause 1 thought they might come in
handy"
And even the minister smiled at her
exclamation louisville Times,

oldest Priest in the World.

The Paris Univers states that the
Oldest priest in the world is one in the
diocese of Cambray, Canon Gedenue.
He was born in Lille, and baptized there
on the 10th of April 1882. and has been
cure of Maches, near Donnes, since
1916. So this venerable priest has been
laboring in Gods vineyard for seventy
seven years, and has attained the ripe
old age of 103 years, months and some
days. About the year 1880 this aged
priest then almost an octogenarian,
thought his death was approaching, and
so he ordered a tombstone to be pre-
pared for his grave, on which he had
the following inscription engraved:
Here lies Charles Gadenne, canon of
Cambray and of Amiens, who on the
died in obedience and fidelity to the
Roman Catholic Apostolic church.
The stone now lies in the garden at

Pope Never Heard Of EIiot.

Even many of the Catholic papers of
America have published a silly telc-
gram from Rome announcing that the
Pope is preparing a reply to DR.. Eliot's
exposition of the religion of the flu
ture, and that it is TO be published in
the Civilta Cattolica, etc. The story
reminds one of the repeated para
graphs which used to appear in the
liberal papers of Italy last year con-
corning the differences" and con
troversy." the negotiations between
the Holy Father and a little ecclesias-
tic in Italy who was going to the dogs
at the time, and has since gone to
them, says Rome. No doubt DR.. Eliot's
name makes something of an echo in
the United States. but you could hardly
catch it with the most powerful mega
phone anywhere else. and there does
not seem to be the slightest reason
why Father Brandt of the Civilta Cat
tolica. to say nothing at all of the head
Of the universal church. should begin
to batter down brown butterfly with
his sledgehammer. The fact is. the
Pope has never heard Of DR.. Eliot nor
read his theory of the new religion, as
outlined by him some months ago.

Not accommodated.

Under sensational headings, the daily
papers of Sept. 10 published dispatch
from Montreal to the effect that twenty
five priests of the College of Worieville,
near ST. Hyacinthe, had been eXcom-
municated for having defied the Pope's
refusal to move their institution to ST.
Johns in the Montreal diocese. The
Sun, New York, prints letter from
Liable Phi. Perrier, visitor of the Cath
Ole schools of Montreal, who says:
mo one is communicated, accord
ing to the truth. These priests have
come in the diocese of Montreal to open
a college. AS they had not the per-
mission of quitting their own diocese,
the Archbishop of Montreal does not
allow them to say Mass in his diocese;
but no censure, no accommodation
has been pronounced against them. The
case is examined by the proper author

Fathers in his airships,
Gone to spend the day,
Looking after loans and bonds
In Europe, DER the way.
Mother who likes comfort,
And does not care to roam,
Is shopping via wireless,
In Paris, at her home.
Brother, who in deep seas
Has coral grove,
Is going in his submarine
Among his crops to rove.
Uncle, in the navy,
Who's left his ship a span,
Is shooting through pneumatic tubes
To join her in Japan.

Has worked reforms so rare
That even the ward meetings
They open now with prayer;
And when, tired by her labors,
She'd body rest and soul,
She goes to spend for pleasure
A weekend at the pole.
