A ROMAN GOVERNORS LETTER.

A unique papyrus document has
come into the possession of the Ber-
lin museum, which already owns one
of the finest collections of papyri in
the world. 1t was unearthed at Fay
UNI, Egypt. and is distinct from the
papyri found there in that it is an
original decree of the Roman govern
er of the Egyptian provinces. whereas
all the other documents found there,
though highly interesting, are. mere
copies of the originals.
According to the official description
it is a letter dated December 27,- 2O9
A. D., from the governor. Subatianus
Aquila. who had an evil reputation as
a prosecutor of the Christian, to
Theon, the administrator of the Arsi-
noean region (now Fayum), to the
effect, after the usual formal greet
ings, that Niger. the son Of Papirius,
sentenced by Claudius Julianus-vir
perfectissimus-to five years penal
servitude in the stone quarries is to
be released, his sentence having eX-
pired. In the eighteenth year of the
Emperors Lucius Septimus Severus,
Pertinax the Great and Marcus Aure-
Illus Antonius, this first day of the
month Tybi"
Penal servitude in the Numidian
quarrieS was rockoned to be the
severest punishment after the death
sentence. IT was inflicted for rob-
berry of temples. wilful firing of crops,
selling secret philters and betrayal of
state documents. Convicts had half
their heads shorn, when heavily
shackled and underwent terrible tor
ments from exposure to the blazing
sun and insufficient food as may be
seen from the Epistle of Bishop Cyp-
rian of Carthage who few years
later, during the reign of the Emper-
or Valerian. wrote TO the Christian
convicts In those same uuarries con-
solng them in their terrible suffer-
ingS.

A TEACHER OF PATRIOTIsM

Archbishop Keane, in the very inter-
esting biographical sketch he is
contributing to the Apostolic, recalling
his studies in st. Mary's seminary, Bal
timore, says that love of country was
taught to him by Father Flammant,
an Old-time professor:
HE taught me love of country. One
day 1 went to him, as we did at least
once a month, for spiritual direction
that is, for a conversation on spiritual
matters. 1t was during the civil war.
He askSl me abruptly: How do you
feel about the condition of your coun-
try?' 1 answered in all sincerity that
I had been so taken up with my stu
dies that l had not given the matter
much attention. With great solemni-
ty he said My friend I am sorry to
hear you say, this. Our Lord wept
over the misfortunes of His country,
and ought to feel deeply the trouble of
yours That lesson produced an i'm
preston which has told on my whole
life. Love of country has been to me
not only matter of patriotism, but a
duty toward God And if my career
has been somewhat noted for devoted
ness to America, l wish the credit of it
to be given to the influence of that
sanity priest, Father Flammant dur
ing my preparation for the priesthood
in St Marys seminary"

PRIEST HERO OF WRECK.

The disastrous wreck on the North
western Pacific near Santa Rosa, Cal,
a few days ago resulted in the death
of twelve persons and serious injury
of score or more injured. Father
Lawrence JagO, o. P, proved himself
hero on the occasion. The Santa
Rosa Press Democrat says of him:
THE Rev. Father Lawrence Jago, o.
p, of Benicia on his way to his old
home in Heraldsburg was a hero in
deed. , Armed with an axe he cut his
way into the wreckage and pulled out
eleven of the dead bodies. He also cut
a hole in one side of the car and got
our four injured men. One mans
shoulder bone prOtruded so that he
had to bend his head back and
hold the bone while Father Jago cut
a place to get him released.
When Father Jago arrived here on
Monday night his clothing was still
saturated with human blood and he
shuddered as the terrible scenes were
called to mind Men and women who
saw the courageous priest at work
speak in the highest terms of praise of
his splendid work And the while he
welded the axe from his lips came
commiseration for the wounded and
the dying, This was a neVer-tO-be
forgotten time Father JagO was a
hero. But while men grasped his
hands both at the scene of the wreck
and in the Press Democrat office upon
his arrival here, he showed the true
spirit that Do unto others as you
would they should do unto YOU when
he said, Everybody was helping. They,
like me- did what they could. "

/ "REMINISCENCES OF THE LATE
MARION CRAWFORD.

Somebody once defined genius, says
the Pittsburg Observer. as IAN inf
mite capacity for taking pains" If
one were to Judge from the vast high
class literary output at frequent inter-
walls. evidencing rapidly of compost
ton of Byron, for instance, early in
the past century, and of Marion CraW-
ford, Father Barry and Father Ben
son in more recent years, one would
feel inclined to reject that definition
and TO substitute for it IAN infinite
capacity for not taking pains Yet
i'll talking about literary composition
care should be taken not to confound
haste with speed An example of the
painstaking efforts of some writer's
is afforded in the case of the late
Marion Crawford. His sister, Mrs
Fraser, tells us that for his tale, Ma
rietta, a Maid of Venice" the novelist
studied every process of Venetian
glass work: for "Marzio's CrucifiX,
he became a silversmith; to write The
Witch of Prague" he went to live in
that CITY and studied Bohemian-his
seventeenth language! Mrs Fraser has
also something to tell us of Crawford's
religious life "One pre-eminent sub
ject." she says, "he did not care to
discuss-theology. His religions was
too much a part of himself to invite
analysis when once he had satisfied
himself of its supreme truth and ire
futable logic Yet, to assist others,
he was planning to write a pamphlet,
Why [ Am a Catholic Like rock
in faith, yet simple as a child in prac-
tice, he was one of the Catholics who
take their creed as the Crusaders took
it, whole unquestioningly, joyfully."

THE DIFFERENCE.

Comparisons are said to be odious,
but one cannot help making them oc-
casiOnally. The truly good often point
with ScOrn at the Catholic Church and
say she harbors sinners. We admit it,
We all know how easy il is when,
temptation is thrown in our path, to
fall away from grace. This is not
done with deliberatiOn, but thought
lessly The man goes to confession
He is thoroughly in earnest. He is sin
cerely sorry for the sins he has COM
mitted and he means, with Gods
grace to reform. But in a little while
he falls again. He is a miserable sin
ner, and no one realizes il more deep
" than himself. Again and again he
goes through this same experience.
Those on the outside VINO know him
look upon him as one of those who go
to confession for the privilege of being
permitted to do things contrary to the
moral code" as some of our non
Catholic philosophers tell US we do.
All this time the Church is harbor
ing a sinner; and all the time, too the
poor fellow who would raise himself
up is struggling gloriousy and will in
time overcome every obstacle put in
his way. The charity of the Catholic
Church is the charity of Christ, her
love is that of our Divine Lord.
What would happen to the weary
pilgrim in some of the other churches?
The first fall might be forgiven. Even
two or three might be overlooked.
Then the end, and creased plank to
hell That is not the Christian way;
it is not the way our Blessed Redeem
er would have His Church treat the
sinner 1t is merely human. and as a
soul-saving plan is worthless
Everything connected with the
Catholic Church proves her supernat-
ural origin. Men of thought. men of
learning, can't get away from this
fact: but it is sometimes hard for them
to admit it-Catholic Light.

IN THE LAND OF ROBERT BRUCE.

The church is regaining its old place
in bonnie Scotland. Recently, accord
ing to an English exchange, a beauti-
full new church was dedicated at st.
Andrew by the Archbishop of ST. Ar
drew and Edinburgh, in the presence
of large and representative attend
ance Of priests and laymen. The
church, which was erected by a friend
of the pastor, Rev. Father Laughton,
is said to be an edifice worthy of the
ancient city. once the metropolitan see,
but whose cathedral is now only q
magnificent ruin. The same paper in
forms us of the opening of new home
by the Sisters of Marie Reparatrice at
Ferry Road Leith. and the occupa-
ton of their old home in Edinburgh
by the Helpers of the Holy Souls

CHANGE.

If the moon in all its graduer,
Shone each night the ages through
II no clouds. no mighty forces,
Ever banished it from view;
Would we prize the glorious moon
light,
ReVel in its weird delights.
As we do when we remember
All the dark, unlovely nights?
If the sun shone always brightly,
If the skies We're never gray,
If no hurricane no downpour
Ever spoiled well-planned day;
Should we prize the perfect weather
Speak thereof such words Of praise
As we do when we remember
All the dark and stormy days

THE COUNTERFEIT soUTHERNER

OF course. there are many counter
feits. A most amusing imitation is
one that often passes for the typical
southerner in New York This satchei-
mouthed braggart infests the cafes
and demands attention by his abusing
the waiter for offending his delicate
sense of honor. Il hate a niger, sub, .
he loudly proclaims, which is 4 senti-
ment that one never hears from those
TO the manner born. He haunts the
theatres and parades the streets, since
it is poor fun to practice his gentlity
in private.
He wears a wide black hat. mounts
the table and yells whenever the band
plays a southern melody. Such a pre-
tentious caricature would be harmless
enough. but for the ridicule he brings
upon the south. Unfortunately. pOpu-
lar authors seem to accept him al face
value and exploit him in novels or
plays where a "southerner' is u nee
essa'ry part of the stage machinery

WELSH CAVE JEWELLERS.

Cave jewellers still survive among us
here says the Cardiff Mail, and there
is living at Llandudno an aged wom-
an known colloquially as "Miriam's
Ogo.' She is SO years Of age and till
quite lately lived in a cave on the side
of the Great Orme. There she bore
and brought up a family of thirteen
children. one of whom is the stalwart

The Real Test

There are many ways by
which a financial institution is
judged, such as It's capital and
surplus. its management and the
laws under which it is organ
lied.
The real. vital test, however,
by which an institution should
be Judged is the growth of its
business during the length of
time ii has been established.
This company was established
twenty-four years ago and it
now has a total resources of
over S2.350.000.00.

TEMPER. Is CRUELTY.

A great source of cruelty is temper.
When it is considered what a vast sum
of misery temper causes in the world.
how many homes are darkened and
how many hearts are saddened by it:
when we remember that its persecu-
tons have not even the purifying
consequences of most other calami-
ties, inasmuch as it's effects upon its
innocent victims are rather cankerous
than medicinal; when we call to mind
that a bright face and a bright dispo-
sition are like sunshine in a house,
and a gloomy, lowering countenance
as depressing as an Arctic night, we
must acknowledge that teDper itself
is only another form of cruelty, and a
very bad form, too.
