A BEAUTIFUL GIFT.

Perhaps there will be at least a
few of our wealthy young ladies, who
without any great sacrifice on their
part, could initiate the example of a
motherless young girl, who as a
graduating gift from her father re-
ceived $4,000.
II will build another monument to
mother with this, one that will make
others who never saw her love and
reverence her memory as we do. |
will build little chapel in her mem.
DRY near the place I visited in. Okla
homa last year. The Catholics are
SO poor there that they will never be
able to build one for themselves with
out help"
"A grand idea," said her father
go ahead"
During the course of the past yea1
the chapel was built, and, for the first
time in the history of the little place
Easter Mass will be celebrated in a

DRESS OF THE ALAsKANs.

The Alaskan protects himself
against the intense cold of winter IN
his native region with a garment
called the parkie Both men and
women wear the parkie, which con-
sists of a hooded bouse without any
opening in the chest. 1t is made Oh
fur and extends to the knees, some
timse to the feet.
The skin of the young deer, muskrat
and ground squirrel are used to make
parkies. The hood, however, is al
wavs trimmed with long-haired FUR
which protects the face Of the wearer
from the icy winds and prevents the
nose and cheeks from freezing, espe-
cially during a journey. The Yukon
remains covered with ice of three
four and even five feet in thickness
for the space of about seven months.
During that time, it is the great ma"
tional road for both natives and white
people who travel in sledges drawn
by dog teams.
When going out to sea to hunt the
seal, walrus, or white whale, the Eskl-
mo puts on a kind of parkie and binds
himself fast to his position in the
KAYAK or bibarkie. The method keeps
the boat water tight and the clothing
of the occupant dry. Thus, like the
sea gull, the Eskimo defies both the
storm and the tempestuous ocean.

THE SAMOAN ISLANDS.

We have heard a great deal about
the Philippine Islands, Porto Rico and
even Guam has been mentioned; but
of that portion of Samoa, over which
"Old Glory" waves since about the
time of the Boer war, is almost un-
known to many of our readers.
Tituila, Mamma and Rose Island,
which belong to the United States, are
situated about mid Pacific and little
more than fourteen degrees south of
the equator. Tituila, which is the
largest, is about eighteen miles long
and not more than five miles wide at
it's greatest breadth 1t has fine
harbor-Pagopago-the G in the word
has the soft sound of ng as in singing
so the g in all Samoan words. This
harbor, unlike Apia, is not exposed to
the forces of a hurricane, but is sur
rounded by high cliffs, some parts
reaching an altitude of one thousand
feet. It is an ideal coaling station
Comparatively speaking, there is but
little fiat land. There are no roads
hence no vehicles. All travelling is
done on foor or by boats. When the
oceanic steamers used to ply between
San Francisco and Sydney, Pagopago
was place of call-about every three
weeks. The natives used to profit by
these callings, for they sold lots OF
curios.
1t is notorious that when the United
States gets possession of any new ter
ritory, some of the missionaries from
our separated brethren become very
aggressiyely apparent and troublesome
to the Catholic people there, especial
ly with well equipped schools.

SUNDAY IN A CHINESE CHRISTIAN
VILLAGE.

It is no wonder that the priests who
labor in China are much taken with
the perseverance of their converts.
Once the Chinese are thoroughly in
structed, they seldom revert to pagan
ism. Any trouble of that sort is with
the beginners, or, with those whom the
Fathers are unable to visit at the
proper time. Sunday in China is OBJ
served more rigidly perhaps than in
many places in America. Here is a
typical Sunday in a Chinese Christian
village. Early in the morning they go
to church, say their morning prayers,
repeat their catechism and hear mass
if the priest is there. If not they spend
the time in devout meditation, ending
with the Little Office of the Blessed
Virgin Mary. At noon they say the
rosary and the litanies with some
other prayers. In the evening they
have the Way of the Cross, evening
prayers and possibly Benediction of
the Blessed Sacrament. The whole
day is practically given to the devo-
tons and pious exercises.
It is this earnestness and undivided
attention which win many other souls.
The reverential demeanor of the
Chinese are, on the whole serious
race, and what humor they have is
very quiet. The grave mien, there
fore, of the Catholics appeals to them
more than any other emotion. All the
feasts of the Church are kept with
solemnity. The pagan Chinese, too
have some festivals, and when these
occur they test the staunchness of our
people. These festivals have been OBJ
served in China for centuries, and, in
China, as in all the old countries, GUS
tom has the force of a command The
Christian may be the only one in the
family who may absent himself from
the merrymaking, but he does it new
ertheless. 1t is seldom that Chinese
Christian of any standing takes part
in the pagan festivals. The neophytes,
not yet fully persuaded of the truths
of our religion, may and in fact often
do. But the older ones, never. This
is one of the reasons why the priests
in China really love their converts.

Schools are the best and most last
ing defensive operations against their
attacks. The priest at Pagopago Is
DESTROYS of putting up good school.
Here is an extract from his letter:
81 am still pushing at my school for
Pagopago. My people are stirring too.
Five lime kilns have already been
burnt, wherewith to build the walls"
The lime is made by burning coral
THE difficulty will be the money
question. may possibly raise $1,000
locally; but that will not be enough
to cover the expenses of building
sufficiently large to house three teach
ers and accommodate about two hun
dred children The mission is too
poor to help. l am thinking of apply
ing for help to Church Extension So
ciety, as Tutuila is an American col
ony, and as it is for such worthy
cause"
The missionaries On these outlying
islands lead a truly Apostolic life.
Their people give them nothing; there
are no collections made at Mass, etc.
The only export of any consideration
is Copra or dried cocoanut
The priests depend on the outside
for help Whenever these good men
wish to do anything in shape of ma
terial. progress they are always con-
fronted with the great cost of sup
plies, which must be imported. Sup
pose they get lumber, roofing, paint,
nails (which must be special on &C.
count of climate), school furniture or
apparatus from the States. They have
to be shipped at San Francisco or Van
couver, and transhipped at Honolulu,
then on to Fiji and from there to
Apia, Upolu, German Samoa and
thence to Pagopago. The freight
charges are high. This would not
count if they were backed up like the
sectarian missions by Kennedy lega'
cies.
There are three missions; one at
Pagopago, one at Leone and the other
at Lotofaga.
The Protestant missions in the Pa
cific have the advantage of having
their own vessels to carry supplies.
One is called the John Williams and
the other the Southern Cross.

GERMAN SOUTHWEST AFRICA.

German Southwest Africa is essen
TALLY an agricultural country. With
the exception of few towns the col
ony is composed of extensive farms
including from three thousand to eight
thousand acres, devoted chiefly to
stock-raising. The majority of the
colonist families, therefore, live apart
from one another.
In German Southwest Africa, a col
ony as large as Germany itself, there
are only one thousand two hundred
and thirty-four European Catholics.
''The need of religious influence
among this scattered flock, and the
impossibility of adequately providing
for the spiritual necessities of these
people, under existing conditions, are
grave sources of anxiety to us" says
the Rev. Eugene Klaeyle, O. M. l.,
Project Apostolic, writing in the cur
rent Annals"
On the other side we have the sor-
row of seeing the native population
almost entirely under the influence
of the sects. Truly, humanity speak
ing, the missionary might be tempted
to say himself:
"such being the state of affairs, OF
what use is it to sacrifice apostles
and resource with so small a chance
of achieving any success?
But no; we will remain at the post
assigned to us. When God calls will
vet flourish in the land of the Hereros'
When God calls to us to give an &C
count of our stewardship, He Will
Judge US not according to our success,
but according to the spirit with which
ve have worked for the salvation OF
souls"
