New oratorio by Monsisnor Perosi.

Rome Nov. 22.-Another Oratorio en-
tered in Memoriam PATHS" has just
been finished by Monsignor Perosi
master of the Sixtine choir. The COM
position was undertaken by the famous
maestro while yet suffering from Ahe
sorrow occasioned by the death of his
father, to whom he was deeply attach
ed. The execution of the work con-
stituted sort of refuge from the emo
ton that most Italians feel so keenly
when death snatches a relative away.
Monsignor Peros has not yet decided
where his latest composition shall be
publicly executed for the FIRST time. 1t
is probable that he will pay that com
pliment to the Holy Father, who held
the Monsignors father in affection.
The music has been pronounced by the
few musicians of note whose privilege
it was OF hear it privately to be a
composition of exquisite beauty.
The activity of Monsignor Perosi con-
tinues undated. For many hours each
day. apart from those necessary for the
fulfillment of his enga gements, he
studies and composes adhering always
to the works of the Old classical mas
tiers and never touching those of mod
ern schools. His "Scuola di Canto" in
the institute in the Piazza Pia holds
about sixty boys who are trained in
singing by the master in person. He
never allows another to take any part
of the burden attaching to the difficult
work and is repaid for his zeal by the
progress of the pupils and the deep af-
lection they entertain for their unself-
ish tutor

Blessing in Disguise.

ut may seem paradoXical and hard
to realize, nevertheless it is true that
in the day of the Lord, when He will
bring to light the hidden things OF
darkness and make manifest tn coun-
sells of the hearts-in that day we
shall discover that we owe a heavier
debt of gratitude to the Lord for the
trials we have endured than for the
comforts we have enjoyed. For how
many more are drawn toward Him by
sufferings than by consultations! What
are the heavy rains of tribulation that
fall on US but refreshing showers That
quicken and nourish the seeds of Latin
in our soul and make them grow into
fruits of sanctification? What are
Affections if patiently endured but the
raw material out of which we can
weave the royal robe that we shall de-
serve to wear at the banquet of the
great King? Once said the Persian
poet Sadi, I murmured at the vicissi-
tudes of fortune when my feet were
bare and 1 had not the means Of pro-
curing shoes. 1 entered mosque With
heavy heart and there beheld man
deprived of his feet. I offered up my
praise and Thanksgiving to Heaven for
its bounty and bore with patience the
want Of shoes. Cardinal Gibbons.

RECALLS MEMORIES OF THE
MacCORMACK.

MacCormack-The death of Bishop
MacCormick, archbishop of Nisibus
and late bishop of Galway, Ireland,
whose death we recorded last week,
leaves a sad blank in the life of the
community. His kindly, generous dis
position, and the broad-minded view
with which he regarded passing ques-
lions into which bitter feelings fire.
quently obtruded themselves, won for
him the warm esteem and affection OF
all classes. During mis- heightened ca
reer he never made an enemy, and his
demise has aroused universal regret.
Educated at Maynooth, his mental ac-
,quirements and administrative ability
soon became manifest on his ordination
to the Mission at Westport. At that
time his colleagues were the present
Archbishop of Melbourne CDR. CARR
and the famous Dean Roman. Prefer
ment soon came, and in 1872 he was
consecrated Coadjutor Bishop of Ach-
onry. In this enlarged sphere of ac-
ton he won the highest regard of his
ecclesiastical superiors and OF the pub
lie generally. Early in 1867 he was
translated to the See of Galway and
Kilmacdwogh and to the Apostolic Ad-
ministratorship of Kilfenora, and this
elevated position he filled with much
dignity and ability, until his resigna-
ton at the end of last year when he
was succeeded by the present bishop,
DR.. O'Dea. In recognition of his life
long services to the church, on his re-
tirement the Holy Father appointed
him Titular Archbishop of Nisibus,
and the honor was learned of with the
greatest satisfaction by his many
friends both inside and outside of the
church. He had reached the age of II.

The PASSING,

Today the red rose waves good-by
Where phantom shadows dim the sky
And through the wales the south winds
sigh,
And all the little streams
And from his perch in powered dell,
As one who sounds a saddened knell.
The mockingbird has called farewell
To summer and it's dreams.
Today the dropping flowers sway,
With low-bowed heads, as one might
pray
Or turn his sorrowed face away
From where the sunlight streams
And from gray dawn to darkness deer
AS ever on the hours Lrrep
From bud to bloom, Loves gardens
weep
For summer and it's dreams.
And so tonight when darkness falls,
And through the dusk an old song
calls
With breath of roses from the walls,
While yet the starlight CLEANS
Before the shadows gather black
Above the starless, lonesome track
That lies beyond l give you back
To SIMMER and its "eams.

Father Tabb Dead.

Father John B. Tabb, the poet-priest
who, in the early fall, was stricken
bind, died last Friday at st. Charles
college, where for many years he was
professor of English literature. He was
nearly 20 years old. Born in Virginia.
Rather Tabb served in the confederacy
with Sidney Lanier, with whom he was
very friendly. After the war he entered
the ministry of the Episcopal church,
later becoming a Catholic priest His
rare poetic gifts were early recognized,
and his Poems" are considered among
the most successful issued in America
in years. After being stricken blind,
Rather Tabb continued his writings.

Guard the Children.

Keep the children in the house these
long evenings. In the large cities and
towns there are a thousand tempta-
tions thrown out to lure the young. If
you would have your sons learn all
manner of evil, and become corrupt,
allow them to roam the streets after
dark. 1t is a certain road to ruin.
Under cover of the night, and the in
fluence of bad companions, they will
see and hear everything bad immoral
and vulgar.
The street, at night, is the school
where the young are educated to be
loafers, gamblers, night-walkers and
thieves. Keep the children indoors,
and make the pleasures of homes so
attractive that they viii seek no other.
Gather them around the family table,
give them books, magazines, weekly
papers. pictures, music and social
games. BY proper use of these,
children may not only gain knowledge
and refinement with pleasure, but
they will serve, not alone as guard
but as the best and surest guard
against temptation to less innocent en-
joyment.
Many parents rid themselves of
their children's Impotence by turning
them away to do as they please, rather
than take the trouble of providing them
with good Catholic magazines and pa
pers, and other agreeable and rational
amusements. Many child goes astray
not because there is a want of care
at home, but simply because home is
not a pleasant place.
A child needs smiles as much as
flowers need sunbeams. If a thing
displeases, they will avoid it. If home
is a place where faces and words are
cold and harsh. and some one is al
ways scolding. they will spend as many
hours as possible elsewhere. Try and
make home happy, and you will save
the children from the corrupt influence
of street companionship, and the tempt
ationS which lurk in the dark streets.
