German Navy Increasing Rapidly.

Berlin.-Captain Persius, a retired
naval officer. again draws attention in
the Kreuz Zeitung to the rapid in
crease in the power of the German
fleet The first four battleships of the
Dreadnought type will, he explains,
take their places in the high seas fleet
this year, and the first battleship-
cruiser, the Won der Tam. will prOba-
bly, be put in commission next autumn,
and thus a homogeneous division of
these vessels will be ready for service
at the front at the close of the year.
With these ships added to it, states
Captain Persius. the German fleet VIII
slightly behind that of the United
States.
Very shortly. Captain Persius con-
tinues, the large cruised G, which was
begun in 1908. will leave the stocks,
and in the course of next year three
battleships of the 1909 program, the
Ersatz Frithjof the Hildebrand and
the Heimdall, and probably also the
large cruiser H. will be launched.
Three battlships of the 1908 program,
the Ostfreisland, the HelgOland and
the Thuringen, which were launched
this autumn, will also be ready for
trial trips next year. The fleet is in
creasing so rapidly that in the year
1911 it will be superior to that of the
United States. In America, he says,
only two large vessels, the Arkansas
and the Wyoming, were laid down this
year. and the construction of only two
battleships is proposed to congress for
the coming year.

Jews Returning to Palestine.

Letters from Jerusalem say that the
proclamation of the constitution in
Turkey has thrown open the doors OF
Palestine to the incoming of Jews from
all parts of the world. In Jerusalem
alone four-hfths of the population of
100000 now belong to the Jewish faith

Almost the whole extensive plain of
Esdraelon has been bought up by them
Their prosperous colonies spread from
Dan to Beersheba, and even further
south to the outskirts of Egypt. Thou
sands are escaping from Persia to find
shelter and protection in the Holy
Land, while every ship from Odessa
carries hundreds of them.
The valley Of the Jordan, once the
property of the eX-Sultan ABDUL Ha-
mid. is being eagerly sought after by
Jewish capitalists and syndicates of
ZionistS. whose agents. distributed all
over the land, are buying up rich prop
critics of Mohammedan offenders whose
incomes since the revolution are con-
siderably lessened.
The Holy City is essentially a Jewish
town. Banking, as we'll as trade and
commerce. is monopolized by Jews. The
government has found it necessary to
organize a company of Jewish gen
darmes. Hundreds of thousands of
pounds are sent semi-annually from
Europe and America to enable the col
onists to build homes. Over 10 Jewish
schools already exist in Jerusalem
alone, and synagogues are going up

A YOUNG Defender Of the Faith.

There is at least one small boy in
Brittany who bids fair to be a great
man when he grows up, says Rome"
His parents told him that he must not
use a textbook in school which he'd
been condemned by the bishops as IN
true and against his faith He obeyed
them faithfully, but there was trouble
waiting for him when he reached his
class room without his textbook and
without his lesson. He explained the
reason to the master, who, after
soundIy rating him. threatened him
with all kinds of penalties if he did not
take down faithfully from dictation
there and then the neglected lesson. The
boy took up his pen and began to write
carefully as the teacher proceeded to
read for him, but when it was over and
the little fellow handed up his paper
this is what the astonished pedagOgua
read on it: II believe in God, the Fa-
Their Almighty, Creator of Heaven and
earth and so on down to "life ever
lasting Amen"

Objectionable PLAYS.

Noting with approval a few months
ago the action of President Taft in
leaving a theatre as a protest against
the questionable character of the per-
Torrance, we suggested that Catholic
theatre-goers, at least, should display
the same regard for elementary purity
of morals. We are pleased to see, in the
New World, this mention of an equally
praiseworthy act on the part of a Chi
cago Catholic:
1t has not been so long ago when a
drama was put on the boards in Chi
cago with two or three lines. in one part
very offensive to Catholics It had
several nights run, with, presumably
the average number of Catholics in the
audience, when a woman, who is a cul-
tured. conscientious and practical ad-
herent to the faith, and is also fond of
brightness and social functions, attend
ed the play. The irreverent and often
sfve lines came in like a blow to her
senses. She wrote to the playwright
who had the good sense to see the mis-
take he had made: he answered with a
few apologetic words; the offending
lines were dropped from the act, and the
play gained rather than lost.
Catholic protests against offenses to
their faith are possibly, and we think
probably. far more effective with pub
fishing, theatrical, and mercantile COM
panies than our coreligionists are al
ways willing to believe When John
Boyle O'Reilly impetuously knocked
down defamer of the Blessed Virgin
he gave graphic expression to a senti-
ment that should animate every genu-
inely Catholic heart.-America.

Sermons RX Bows.

The boy who delivers the sermon
without words is one who preaching
does the most good. For instance: The
boy who gets up early in the morning,
kneels at his bedside and says his
prayers, and resolves not to commit
any sin during the day, gives an exam
which talks more eloquently to boys
than any orator could
A youngster going along the street
meets with a poor old lady or gentle
man, whose eyes are dim from the
watchfulness and care of years, stops,
takes hold of the withered hand and
leads its owner over the crosswalks of
the busy thOroughfare, reckoning the
transfers and coachmen to have care
for the aged, and in the very act swells
the hearts of the onlookers with charity
for the old and infirm such as no words
could do.
The boy who raises his hat. when
passing Catholic church, wherein is
present our Savior in the Blessed
Sacrament. tells his companions to be
respectful to their Master.
The lad who seeks the companion
ship of a good boy will have the adj
vantage of the practical sermon that
will aid him to be good and besides
it is easier to be good, when the asso-
Citations are good.

question. He has left the country en-
tireiy in the dark as to the policy he
would pursue if he were returned to
power And on the one serious danger
which threatens England abroad he
has spoken in such way as to in
crease the menace without affOrding
the nation any clear guidance as to
how he would strengthen it against its
possible foes.
His reference TO a possible war be
tween Germany and England has ex>
cited the liveliest feelings of resent
which might find agreeable vent if
the electors had made him once more
first minister of the crown. Carping
criticisms of ministers who have faced
the dissatisfaction of their most aC-
tive supporters in order to MAINTAIN the
supremacy of the fleet have been re-
Ceived by no clear declaration of his
determination to support him if they
decided to adopt the standard of two
keeis to one.
He has repeated fantasticaI non
sense about Germany being determined
TO set a policy of tariff reform. and,
while insisting upon the need for more
ships. he actively supported the lords
in depriving the government of the
means to pay for them. Such needless
rhetoric, such unworthy recriminatiOn.
such infammatory alarmisms are
scandalOus in q man who has been
once and who aspires to be again first
minister OF the crown. The Germans
are not worrying their heads much
about the English.

Worlds Largest Dam Completed.

Washington.-The completion of the
Shoshone dam, in Wyoming, the high
est in the world, is announced by the
reclamation service. This structure has
a total height from base to parapet of
1884 feet 1t is located in the canyon
of The Shoshone river, in one of the
widest and most picturesque regions of
northern Wyoming. The walls of the
gorge are nearly perpendicular, and rise
nearly 1000 feet above the stream. At
its base, the Shoshone dam is seventy
feet across. on top it is 175 feet in
length, and at the bottom it is 10S feet
wide.
The Shoshone dam creates an enor-
nous reservoir with surface area of
ten square miles and an average depth
of seventy feet. It's capacity expressed
in gallons is 14S, 5SS 512, 000 The work
of construction has been attended with
difficulty and danger from the begin
ming. It's location is in a section which
was inaccessible until the government
excavated an expensive road into the
canyon. many miles of which were cut
from the solid rock. The purpose of
this structure is to control the great
floods of the Shoshone river and to pro-
vide an ample water supply for the ir-
rigatiOn of more than 100000 acres of
exceptionally fertile land in the valley
below. A portion of this land is now
available for settlers under the terms

1t is not true that these things that can

not half open conduce to indifference
and irreflecticn-the children of igno-
rance. How many people can give an
intelligent exposition of their belief and
how many can separate the good from
the bad in the numerous articles that
are scattered broadcast over the coun-

"cathoIic Church Is Christianity"

Take Out of the world the Catholic
and Roman Church, and the void can
not be filled up. The rush of all
schisms, heresies. unbeliefs would not
fill the void. 1t would bring back
chaos where orders reigned before and
uncertainty bred of mutual contradic-
ton. There would be no lineal descent
of truth from the apostles. no steadrast
light of the day of PentecOst, no per-
petual witness of the Incarnation. How,
then, could we know that Jesus Christ
ever came into the world?
Put back the Catholic and Roman
Church into the Christian world. and
at once the Church of all nations is it's
own history. It's living tradition is I'M
broken. 1t has its own annals, and
knows their significance. 1t has its own
documents, and it knows their meaning
1t has its own immemorial usages, Gus
toms, interpretations, and it knows
their origin and import. 1t has no need
of scientific historians or of pretentious
critics to tell it what was the divine de-
post committed to its custody What
man knoweth the things of a man but
the spirit of a man that is in him? So
the things also that are of God no man
knoweth but the Spirit of d."-Car-

Two Good Rules.

1t is a good thing to have some rules
or maXims for the government of ones
life. Here are two that are worth adopt
ing. l. Never be discouraged. Pretty
hard rule. is ii not? Resolve to obey
it. Disbursements are of the devil.
She who trusts God and does right has
no business TO listen to the divel. no
matter what happens. God is supreme,
and will win in the end: and His vic
tory will be the victory of all who stand
with Him. .. Never be a discourager.
What can be meaner than to tempt an
other to defeat and failure in the con-
fest Of life? That is too much like the
devils work for any sensible. seIf-re-
specting person to engage in it. Every
temptation to wrongdoing has some
element of discoura cement in it. The
old serpent discoura ged Eve with her
limitation and knowled2e. Stand aloof

Candlemas.

| We again celebrate the feast of the
! Publication of the Blessed Virgin
Mary. In common speech we call il
! Candlemass, because on this day the
| candles prescribed for divine service
are blessed. The candles must be made
Of beeswaX. This is so imperative that
the Church has preferred to have even
her most sacred rites performed with
out lights rather than have those used

low, sperm, paraff1ne patent wax or
any other than beeswaX candles, can
not be blessed, and are forbidden to
be used for divine service
1t is an ancient and praiseworthy
custom for Catholics to procure at
least one wax candle for this day.
and, after it has been blessed. to take
1t home to use it at the bed of the
dying, or during a storm, or for any
other proper end, as the Church wish
es. Good Catholics, we know. are
not satisfied with this alone; they Of
fer one or more candles for the ser
vice Of the altar; thus following the
example Of Mary, who, though not
subject to the law. offered a sacrifice
in the temple.
In book entitled The Sacrament
tails of the Holy Catholic Church" we
find the following beautiful remarks
in regard to this custom:
The Church calls us to the temple
for the publication. that our eyes. too.
may see this glorious light, recognize
ing in its symbol the blessed candle,
that our hands, too, may hold the In
FAINT Savior in beholdinng the waven
a no faIo
How full of meaning are all the rites
of our religion!
Not by chance has the Church
chosen the wax candle as type of
her Lord and Master. St Anselm of
Canterbury tells US the reasons: THE
wax product of the virginia. bee rep
resents Christ's most spotless body:
the wick enclosed in the wax. and
forming one with it, images His hui
man soul, whilst the ruddy flame
crowning and completing the union of
wax and wick, typifies the divine ma
ture. subsisting inconfusedly with the
human nature in one divine person"
Let us then make, on receiving our
blessed candle, an act of faith in
Christ, the light of the world. enlfght-
ening every man coming into the
world. Let US remember we are the
children of light, that is such we
ought to shed around us the light of
good example oh, dear readersl if
our lives were as they should be we
would be like so many torches placed
upon the pathway of truth to show
our poor, erring countrymen the way
to the glorious city of God, the Holy
Roman Apostolic Church.
We should make on this festival an
offering of candles for the service of
the altar. Oh! what consoling
thought for US, when we are at our
daily work, that perhaps our candles
are that moment burning before the
blessed sacrament, thaking the place of
our hearts, silently, purely burning in
their stead before the sacred heart OF
Jesus.

Two Catholic Queens.

The "Marquise de Fontenoy,' writ
ing for the Brentwood Syndicate, says:
Queen Elizabeth of Belgium, like
Queen Marie Amelie of Portugal. is a
full-iedged physician, and entitled to
practice as such; also to add the mystic
letters NJ. D. to her name. She holds
a diploma of doctor of medicine, con-
ferred upon her by the University of
Leipsic, after passing the necessary eX-
aminations. Mention has already been
made of the fact that she was one of
the most skilled assistants of her
father, the late Duke Charles Theodore
of Bavaria, celebrated as an oculist.
But nothing has been said, so far as
have seen, of her being not only able,
but also officially qualified to perform
operations as an oculst, and also as an
ordinary surgeon. 1t is perfectly true
that she has not practiced since her
marriage, but the experience which she
gained through her very thorough med
zeal studies and through her work as
assistant to her father, both in his pro-
fession as an oculist and in the man
agement of his free hospital and dis
pensary at Kreuth, has enabled her to
accomplish much good in her role as a
very active patroness of the various
hospitals and analogous institutions in
Brussels.

work in the land of her adoption, where
she has done so much to abate the raw
ages of diphtheria, which is one of the
most cruel scourges of Lisbon, subject

Exclamation.

In explaining the dictum, Outside
the Church there is no salvation it is
possible to depart so far from the rig
orism of the apparent meaning as to
minimize the genuine doctrine of
which the dictum is the expression.
Bishop John Vaughan's statement of
the case is graphic enough to merit
memorizing: Though we assert with
out any doubt that Protestants may
be saved, and although we are quite
ready to allow even that great many,
owing to their eXcusable inability to
recognize the truth, actually are saved,
yet there is one thing of which we are
still more certain and it is that,
though a Protestant may be saved, it
will not be by means Of his Protest
antism. but in spite of tin fact, in
the very teeth of it. Professionalism, as
such, has no saving power. Though it
may perhaps seem a strange thing to
say, it is nevertheless undoubtedly
true that a Protestant who is saved, is
saved, not in so far as he is protest
ant. but simply in so far as he is a
Catholic "

Previous to this campaign, says Will
liam T. Stead, in a cable to the New
York American, the British people
thought they had in Mr.. Balfour a
statesman of The first rank. This has
been shattered by the melancholy
spectacle which he has afforded by his
speeches during the campaign. They
have been lamentably lacking in every
respect. They have shown neither
courage, wit, nor eloquence. They
have shown an almost inconceivable
incapacity to expound a definite policy,
to explain his own position or even to
rouse his own followers to enthusiasm.
