REMARKABLE RECORD
Of the Irish in the Different Coun
tries Of the World.

II those who from u lack of knowl-
edge of her history think that the
Emerald Isle is nonentity in the
worlds field of activities will stop TO
consider the important role that Irish
men have played in the history of al
most every nation on earth they will
find no difficulty IN changing their
IDEAS On this point the Leader of
Richmond, Va. has this to say:
Thinking people should give some
special thought to Ireland, in many re-
spects the most remarkable country
on EARTH Nowhere in history is there
record of a territory so small and Il
people so few giving the world SO
much. No other nation has it's blood
SO widely diffused among the strong
peoples of the earth adding strength,
energy and dash to the best of them.
No other people has sent It's blood to
be shed on so many bnttlcficltls and
In so many causes and so invariably
far to the front. 81.
1t is one of the familiar but pathetic
humors of history that the Irish have
done more for almost every land on
the globe than for Ireland; and there
Is much truth in that famous and
samewhat hnttering snecr that the
Irish rule all, countries but Ireland.
They have contributed to every de-
partment of human cndeavor. In this
republic, Irish names and Irish stock
are everywhere active in the doing of
things, from the digging Of bitches to
the leadership Of urmicS and the Gre
alton and conduct of great enterprises.
A very large majority of the cities of
these United States have more or less
Irish blood in their veins, and conse-
quently sympathy with and affection
for Ireland.
Aside from that all the people must
recognize the debt they owe to Irish
mon for achievement in war, for bril-
liancy in craftsmanship, for poetry
literature, art, science and commercial
and industrial triumphs. When we re-
call that the island is about three
fourths the size of the state or Vir
ginia and at it's most pOpulous period
never had more than eight million peO-
pie, we must be astonished at the in
fiuence 1t has had in the world and
heroes and the greatness or mankind.

securing the happiness of our brethen,
and our own in consequence, says the
author of 1.-THE Art Of Being Happy"
To receive kindly and amiably all
who come to us, whatever their age
or condition.
Never to be the cause Of anyone
going away from us with feeling of
pain or trouble, but on the contrary
to bear ourselves so that our visitor
may depart happier and more full of
good will.
To show ourselves always anxious
to oblige our neighbor, to enter into
his tastes and views, to do for him
all the little services in our power
and not to expose his faults.
Not to turn away harshly either
the poor or the wretched or the
ignorant, or even the guilty; to come
to the assistance Of some, to have
compassion on others, to be charitable
toward all.
To show kindness and respect, par
ticularly to the old, so often neglected
in their homes or treated with too
little regard: to listen with patience
to their complaints and their stories
told overland over again; to pay
age or infirmities require, and will
ingly to bear them company, etc.
i To exercise patience still more
particularly with regard to the sick.

as concerning the residence of any
Papist priest or schoomaster; and in
case of the witness refusing to testify
there was a penalty of fine of G2O
or one years imprisonment.
"The> informers were expected, aft
er this, to be more diligent and devot-
ed than ever; and a proclamation
passed in the same year ordered all
registered priests. to take an abjura-
ton oath before ethe 25th of March,
1910, under the penalty of death or
transportation. This monstrous edict
gave an additional stimulus and op-
portunity to the informers. The trade
of priest hunting now became dis
tinct branch Of the profession, and
many venerable clergyman was
waylaid by night ion his way to bap-
tize or confirm or visit the dying. The
captured clergy were sometimes
brought in by patches of four and five;
and the laws were vigorously put in
force; if it was a first offense they
were transported;, but if, any bishop
who had been transported was caught
in Ireland again he was hanged"
| Such is a sample OF what English
"law" in Ireland was nearly two hum
dred years ago. Sit was in reference
to the atrocities perpetrated under this
infamous act that the Protestant poet,
Thomas Davis, execrated the inhuman
laws in lines that are familiar to ev-
cry Irishman:
'"They bribed the flock. they bribed
the son as
To sell the priest and rob the sire,
Their dogs were taught alike to run
Upon the scent of wolf and friar."

more dangerous inasmuch as they
attempt subtlely to infiltrate and in
slnuate them into the very veins OF
the Church: this modern apostasy ex-
asperates the mutual hatred of the
rich and poor and entirely scatters to
the winds the treasures of religious
doctrine and overturns simultaneously
sha foundations of religious and civil
liberty.
Towards the conclusion of this very
lengthy letter the Pope speaks of the
Catholic action to which the laity are
called. The words of the Pope in this
connection contain a clear allusion to
the sad condition to which the Cath
olics Of France are reduced at the
present moment by the violent acts of
overbearing tyranny. The letter, al
together, is one of the most import

FOUL DESIGNATION
Of Most Holy Sacrament COMMITTEES
bysVandals.

One of the worst cases of sacrile.
gious vandalisnksever met with in this
city took place III ST. Michaers church
situated. at thaaRerth end of the city.
50, Oh "wednesday afternoon, June 1st,
says the Buffs4e Union and Times.
Special exercises were, being held on
Wednesday afternoon during the
month of June. When the school chill
dren from Mount st. sMichael's school
entered the church,: they noticed the
tabernacle door was thrown open, and
they were Mortified to find one Of the
sacred vessels lying III the church
porch. Father Herman, the pastor, on
being hastily summoned, soon discov-
cred that the sacred species, reposins
in the benedction ring in the taber-
nacle had been removed. 1t was also
discovered that the perpetrator Of the
outrage had scattered the consecrated
hosts throughout the sanctuary in the
aisles of the church, and, after chew
ing up pieces of them, had left them
in the pews. Sacrilege had evidently
been the sole motive of the outrage
On two other occasions the holy wa
ter was removed from the font and
scattered all over the church, and all
the electric lamps stolen. On Sunday
evening, June 5th, special reparation
exercises were held by his Lordship
Bishop Racico The sermon was
preached by Father Devine, S. ]. The
little church was thronged.
Parishioners Of st. Michael's feel in
dignant over the de$ecration of their
church, and the Jealous pastor and his
able assistant have the sympathy of
the Catholics of the city over an act
the first of it's kind ever perpetrated
in church in Montreal. Several de-
tectives are working Dn the case and
1t is expected that the miscreant or
miscreants will be found.

the Irish teachers was accorded the
merit of superiority in music, even by
Anglo Norseman writer's as late as the
twelfth century. The greatest school
of music in the ninth century was at
st. Gall in Switzerland, presided over
by Marcellus, the most accomplished
man of the century. His disciples,
Notker and Tuotillo, were famous
musicians, and Tuotillo was moreover
a painter and sculptor, the Michael
Angelo of his day. The Irish develop
ed National music which is regard
ed as unsurpassed. Some Of the most
popular airs of nf5re than one great
opera are taken from the collection
of Irish music of the Middle Ages.
The culture of modern Europe is due
in great measure to the indefatigable
activity of these Irish monks who were
the pioneers and blazed the way
through the pathless wilderness. They
opened the first schools for the bar
barians in Central Europe. They
taught the elements of Latin, reading,
writing, history, logic, arithmetic, the
Church psalms and the essentials OF
education. The schools which they
had previously founded in Lindisfarne
Glastonbury and Malmesburg in Eng
land were reproduced in Leuxil, Fon-
tenoy, Bobbio, Mertz, Milan, Lacre
Liege, st. Gall, Sacchingen on the
Rhine and Murrbach in Alsace.

Sir Horace Plunltett has ranch props

in America that he conceived the idea
Of cooperation for Ireland. He had
been much impressed by the advan-
tagc Of combination in business, of
which he had observed many examples
in various fields, and in 1889 when he
returned to Ireland, he began to adj
vocate cooperation. At first he could
get no one to listen to him.
But gradually and with many mis-
givings, cooperation was here and
there given trial, and in 1894 the
I. A. o. S. was formed in order to
guide the cooperative societies all
ready formed and to found new so-

Arthur Lynch. Nj. p, in an article in
the st. Louis Republic, writes encour-
aginsly of the work that is being done
by the Irish Agricultural Society.
One Of the most powerful factors
In Ireland, he says, is the Irish Agri-
cultural Society. The founder and
ruling spirit Of the ]. A. o. S., as it Is
familiarly called, is Sir Horace Plun-
kctt. 1t was brought into existence
to enable Irish farmers to compete
successfully against foreign rivals and
the means by which this is accom-
plished is simply that of intelligent
voluntary cooperation. The main obs 4
lection to the I. A. O. S. is that, als
though Ostcnsibly non political, it 10
really a Conservative organization, de-
voted to leading the people from the
Nationalist cause. These matters are
worth considering in detail.
Sir Horace Plunkett is an Irishman
whose origin and associations belong
to the Unonist, or "Ascendancy" class.
though, as he is travelled and
thoughtful man of broad outlook he
has educated himself beyond the lines
Of his party. and has even incurred
unpopularity with the more fanaticul
