THE PRIEST IN BATTLE.

The grim incident of the civil war
which is to be commemorated at Get
tysburg on Saturday, in the unwilling
of the Father COrby monument, has
been used as material for one of the
chapters of a thrilling historical ro-
nance, THE Special Messenger, by
Robert w. Chambers. In the story
the episode precedes the opening of
charge of the Irish regiments under
General Sheridan in Missouri. Secret
information has been Systematically
given to the enemy by Confederate
gentleman. and Sheridan on the eve
of the battle commissions the Special
Messenger, an educated young lady,
who acts as she does throughout the
narrative from a sense of loyalty to
the federal flag, to unravel the discon-
certing mystery. The spy is discov-
cred in the person of one of Sheri-
dams own staff, who has successfully
impersonated a dead officer, and at
the very moment of the battle is en-
gagged in signaling work. Here are
the passages, with most of the con-
Meeting story eliminated

HOSTING THE WHITE FLAG.

The London Times. which has al
ways been impervious to all argu-
ments in favor of Irish Home Rule. is
at last weakening. 1t is publishing a
series of articles which are intended
to prepare the Unionists for back
down on the question of recognizing
Ireland's claims for self-government.
The articles advocate a compromise
on the grounds that the situation is
quite changed since the bloody
eigties.' " In a very condensed cable
synopsis to the New York Times we
read that the Unionists might now
with dignity acquesce in, although
they could not initiate policy of
Home Rule
There is no mistaking the meaning
of this. 1t is surrender pure and
simple. The Unionists are told that
the time has come for them to run
up the white flag The London Times
declares that the savage war they
waged upon Ireland has ended in de-
feat and that all that is now left them

oDoNovAN ROSA NEAR DEATH.

O'Donovan Rosa, famous for a
half century in the struggle for Ire
lands freedom, once leader of the
Fenians is so seriously i'll at his
home in New Brighton. L. l., that
there is little hope of his recovery.
He is almost so years old. and his
physical organization has broken
down under the strain of years and
hardships, but his spirit is as young
as ever.
Fifty-five years ago Rosa joined
the Young Ireland movement His
mother, his brothers and sisters emil
grated to Philadelphia, and he was
left alone at Skibereen In the course
of a short time he was leader in
the patriotic movement sweeping over
the country and famed by the Fenian
leaders
In 1858 he was initiated into full
membership in the Irish Revolution
airy Brotherhood, and in 1859 he
served his first tenn of Imprisonment
in Cork Jail. In 1863 his own coun-
try got too hot to hold him and he
came to New York for a visit. He re-
turned to Ireland, became involved
in an aggressive movement against
the government and was arrested.
From 1865 to 1871 Rosa was in
Jail. The hardship he suffered would
have killed one of less physical
strength and moral courage In 1871
he was banished from Great Britain
and her possessions.
Rosa was one of the most pic
turesque of the Fenians He was q
physical force man at all times and
had scant sympathy with those who
sought for and gained compromise.
He was no less active in this coun-
try than in Ireland in spreading the
seeds of revolt. He published a
newspaper, wrote books and travelled
and lectured. The edict of Danish
ment on Rosa was lifted in 1891, and
soon after that he returned to Cork,
where he was made clerk OF the
county council at a comfortable sala-
ry. Queen Victoria as one of her nu-
merous jubilee favors. granted Rosa
a full pardon and he was free to live
in his native land. During recent
years he has been member of the
United Irish League.
But his long residence in New York
had changed him and Ireland was
changed too. The atmosphere of
Cork was not congenial to the old
and he returned to New
York

is to try and withdraw from the field
in the most graceful manner possible.
That the devils organ is not
merely speaking for itself, but for the
leaders of the Unionist forces, is
shown by the following extract from
cable to the New York Times under
date of October "a:
1T is reported that the writer of
these articles is a close friend of the
Right Hon. A j. Balfour, the leader
OF the opposition in the House OF
Commons, and of the Right Hon
Austen Chamberlain.
Additional speeches by the Master
of Elibank, chief Liberal whip. who
spoke at Belfast few nights ago, and
other party leaders point to the prob
ability that the conferences on the
veto power of the House of Lords will
be converted into a round table con-
ference for the discussion of federal
home rule
We have here the shadow of COM
ing events cast before them. Ireland
has won and her enemies are SIAM
peded and in full retreat. Thank God

day. which will witness our mother

ERIN. MY COUNTRY.

(By William McCOmb in the Belfast
Irish Weekly.)
Oh, Erin. my country. although thy
harp slumbers,
And lies in oblivion in Tara's old
hall,
With scarce one kind hand to awak-
en- it's numbers.
OR sound a lone dirge to the Son
of Fingal;
The trouphies of warfare may hang
there neglected.
For dead are the warriors to whom
they were known;
But the harp of old Erin will still be
respected.
While there lives but one bard to
enliven its tone.
oh. Erin. my country! I love thy
green bowers,
No music's to me like thy murmur-
ing rills,
Thy shamrock to me is the fairest of
flowers.
And naught is more dear than thy
daisy-clad hills;
Thy caves, whether used by thy war
riors or sages,
Are still sacred held in each Irish
mans heart,
And thy ivy-crowned turrets, the
pride of past ages,
Though mouldering in ruins, do
grandeur impart.
Britannia may vaunt of her lion and
armour,
And glory when she her old wood
en- walls views;
Caledonia may boast OF her pibroch
and claymore,
And pride in her philabeg, kilt and
her hose:
But where is the nation to rival old
Erin?
Or where is the country such he
roes can boast?
In battle they're brave as the tiger or
lion.
And bold as the eagle that flies
round our coast!
The breeze oft shake both the rose
and the thistle,
While Erin's green shamrock lies
hushed in the dale;
In safety it rests, while the stormy
winds whistle
And grows undisturbed midst the
mess of the vale;
Then hail! fairest land in Neptune's
old ocean!
Thou land of Saint Patrick, my
parent agra!
COld-Cold must the heart be, and
void of emotion
That loves not the music of Erin
o-Braugh!"

CONGREGATION CONVERTED.

In q communication to The Lamp
which is edited by Father Paul. the
now noted convert from the EpiscOpa
to the Catholic church, the Rev. A
StrOeble, a Catholic foreign mission
ary describes another conversion OF
an entire Baptist congregations:
There are two little islands in the
Caribbean sea, about east of Nicara-
qua, Saint Andrews and Old Provi-
dence. The former has about 5000 in
ha bitants, nearly all English -spea king
Jamaica negroes. of whom less than q
thousand are Baptists: the rest claim
no religion. Old Providence has about
4 2, 600 inhabitants. There were three
Baptist churches until some years ago
when one of them was turned into a
Catholic church.
The inhabitants of this island are
not exactly negroes. but a mixture OF
negroes and Indians on the one side
and of white men on the other, the
latter having been brought to the little
island by the English pirate, Henry
Morgan. in 1850 Names like Archi-
bold, Hail. Davis, Brown are quite
common The historians tell us that
Henry Morgan had his headquarters
at the fort he had built in Santa Cata-
lima island at that time. The founda-
ton of this fort is still in existence.
and more than a dozen of Hensy Nor
gan's cannon are scattered here ad
there over the island.
Having arrived as a total stranger
and finding not a single Catholic on
the whole island, I called upon one of
the three local Baptist preachers, e.
Howard, and introduced myself as a
Catholic missionary. offering my serv-
ives for the following day Sunday"
The missionary then relates that the
Baptist pastor generously turned over
to the visitor the program of services
for the next day, to do with as he
would. An improvised altar was ar
ranged on the platform, mass cele-
brated and sermon preached. Selling
time by the forelock the priest con-
cluded the latter with a suggestions
Since therefore your minister has
been so kind to me and given me the
platform this morning. | venture to
suggest that I stay with you a week
or more for a revival, or a mission, as
we call it."
The minister was not opposed and
put it to a vote, and the congregation
was unanimously for the mission The
correspondent continues:
This mission. however. instead of
continuing for one week lasted three
with mass and sermon every morning
(and from the second week. with ros-
airy Gin a Baptist churchD every even
ing. 1t took only ten minutes to teach
the people how to recite the rosary
with me.
AT the end of three weeks minis
ter and people asked to be received in
to the church, which took place on the
Feast of the Immaculate Conception,
when before mass the humble Baptist
church was blessed and dedicated to
the Blessed Mother
a new Catholic church has since re-
placed the Baptist structure. and a
second also erected, with an Irish
pastor.

AN EYE WITNESSES TESTIMONY

We find in the latest l. Universe
to hand an interview with a Lazarist
Father, who tells of his experience
during the anti-religious riots that
followed the overthrow of the Portu-
guese monarchy. Asked what truth
there was in the press dispatches
about monasteries being veritable ar
senals from which inmates fired upon
the people and so provoked rioting,
Father ESpinouze. the name of the
Lazarist Father interviewed, replied:
'All lies. They assert that the fury
of the mob was aroused by monks
firing upon the crowd They say that
greater or less supplies of firearms
were found in the converts captured.
That is an infamous calumny. To
speak of what came within my per-
sonal knowledge, there were in the
house of the Lazarists at ArroiOs a
single revolver and sixty cartridges.
The mob. after numbering two of our
fathers, found in the house thirty
cartridges and no revolver. ! carried
off the revolver and hid it in a place
where l could find it again.
This is a fair sample of the armed
fortresses" which. according to the
cable dispatches, the maddened mobs
attacked after having been fired up
on. So far from these attacks being
spontaneous outbreaks they were
planned beforehand and executed in
a systematic manner. Here is the
testimony of Father Espinouze on
this subject 1t has been alleged that
the attacks of the religious houses
were of an unprecedented character
1t was evident that they had been ar
ranged and mapped out by leaders.
This explains how it came to pass
that everywhere the converts were
surrounded at the same hour by
mobs, made up of soldiers, civilians
and women"
Here is an account of the attack
and sack of the house of the Lazarist
Fathers at Arrios: Preparations
for the attack began at 3 o'clock. 1t
was evidently the intention to pre-
vent any one escaping. Forming a
ring at some distance from the house
the brigands gradually closed in until
they met at the foot of an eminence
on which our house staad. They then
began firing, taking aim at the win
dows Some wretches broke down the
door with an axe. They then asked
for Father Barros- Gomez. the local
superior, and Father Fragues the
visitor. In the meantime the other
rioters ran forward with guns in hand
and joined those asking for the supe-
riors. When the latter appeared they
were shot down before they could
utter a single word Father Fragues
was the first to fall. Father Barros-
Gomez had barely time to kneel in
prayer before he was murdered"
Scenes similar to that here de-
scribed were enacted at the same
hour in other places. The savage
spirit of unclaimed anarchy was feed
ing fat its insensiate hatred of the
Catholic Church, which anarchists in
all lands regard as the greatest and
most formidable bulwark standing
between society and the social chaos
they are striving to bring about
