NEW YORK CATHOLIC SCHOOLS

In 1910 there were only eight
Catholic parochial schools in New
York City with a total attendance
of about 1000 pupils. In the bor-
ough of Manhattan today there are
sixty-seven schools with a register
of 52,213 pupils. These schools
have been erected at a cost of
$S,564,5O0, and the total cost of
their maintenance for the year 1909
was $598,140. In the three of the
five boroughs of the city of New
York, which are comprised in the
archdiocesan limits, viz, Manhattan,
Bronx and Richmond, there are
ninety-five Catholic schools with an
attendance of GLASS pupils, and the
total amount of money spent for
their support in the year 1909 by the
Catholics of the three boroughs was
$6S2,24O. The Board of Education
of New York City spends about $50
a year for the education of each
pupil attending the public schools,
and it is estimated that the Catholic
citizens of Manhattan, Bronx and
Richmond boroughs saw the taxpay-
ers more than 100000 annually
in school tax. To erect new school
buildings for these tens of thousands
of Catholic school children would
require the expenditure of about
$2O,000,000 by the Board of Educa-

HUMBLE MILLERS

ers play here this afternoon and to-
morrow with the Colonies and the
fans will not find them as chesty as
on their last appearance in April,
having received their bumps since,
being showed from first to third
place. and at the rate they are going
now will be lucky to stay in the
first division. After the opening Of
the season 1t was predicted in these
columns that this team had the ad-
vantage of spring training and was
not as strong as last year, especially
at short stop, and was weak in right
field. The change in the Colonels
lineup has strengthened them con-
siderably, and II would not be sur
prising II they defeated Minneapolis
both games. Grimshaw at first and
Howard at second are a tower of
strength to the infield and by plac-
ing Stansbury in the outfield retains
the teams batting strength, and It
looks like Manager Howard could
stand pat on the present lineup. A
few misguided fans wanted Stanley
taken out of the game and replaced
by Fisher, but n only took a day or
two to see the folly of this, several
runners scoring from second on
short singles who Stanley would
have thrown out easily or held them
at third. The same few do not real
lie that Stanley is hitting the ball
hard but unluckily. Louisville will
play at Columbus Monday, and If
fair weather Decoration day, Tues
day, will play to monster crowd,
Columbus fans being tickled over
their team being in first place.

FOOLISH REVENGE.

Nothing is more foolish, nor more
productive OF misery to yourself,
than revenge. Danish all malignant
and revengeful thoughts. They make
the best face look ugly. If your re-
venge be not satisfied, ii will give
you torment now; II II be, ii will be
greater hereafter There is no
greater self-tormentor than mali
cious and revengeful person, who
turns the poison of his own temper
upon himself. The Christian precept
in this case Is, LET not the sun, go
down upon your wrath" The Pytha-
goreans practiced II in a literal sense
-i'If at any time. In passion, they
broke out into opprobrious language,
before the sun set they gave one an
other their hands. and with them a
discharge from all injuries; and so.
with a mutual reconciliation, parted
friends"

FOR wOMAN's EYE.

Bead fringes are fad of the mo-
ment.
Changeable cheviot is one of the
new fabrics.
There are some wonderfully pretty
hair nets worn, of gold and silver,
and old silver is fashionable.
One of the newest sleeves is about
three-quarter length and is as wide
at the bottom as at the plain top.
Dressy coat sleeves end anywhere
between the elbow and the wrist, and
ample width is feature of all.
Fancy effects both in coats and
skirts are plainly discernible among
the important trends.
Braids of all kinds are used on
tailor made suits and dresses, in
various widths, in plain and fancy
designs.
The sailor collar in it's many
FORMS. as we'll as the simple notch
collar, is much in evidence. Some
smart effects in fancy revers are
shown, as we'll as many side fasten-
ings.
While many of the sleeves are cut
in one with the body of the coat,
others are similar to the regulation
coat sleeve, but fuller than they
We're last season.
Although some skirts are trimmed
quite deliberately to match the coats,
the tendency toward simplicity is
marked.
Braid trimmings, as we'll as lin
gerie collars and cuffs, or those made
of lace, are seen in many jackets.

BEST SHOWING.
Catholic Lead In Church
Attendance In
London.

The Baptist World, which is
usually at war with the Catholic
church, in its issue of Thursday,
May 25, said:
Sir w. Robertson Nicoll has a
powerful plea in the British Weekly
for "A League of Worshiping Chill
dren" who will form the habit of
going to church. He pleads that
there is growing up a generation of
children who have not formed the
habit of going to church. He gives
the statistics for Aberdeen, which
are very alarming. In the Estab-
lished church only 14.7 per cent. of
the Sunday-school children go to
church. In the Free church 1t is a
shade better, 1876 per cent. The
Baptists show only 1873 per cent,
the Congregationalists, 1882 per
cent. The Roman Catholics make the
best showing with 30.5 per cent.
The result is already manifest in de-
creased attendance at church wor-
ship, particularly in the evening.
The young people did not form the
habit of going to church when chill
dren and do not go now that they
are older. They do net love worship
with all the charm of fellowship with
the eternal God. The British Free
churches continue to show steady
decrease in membership because the
children are not converted. We have
come to the curious crisis when the
Sunday-school which was started to
win the children to Christ and the
church may take the place of the
church and of Christ. This ought
not to be so, it need not be so. But,
alas, it is so in too many instances.
1t behooves pastors, parents, teach
ers to awaken to the situation and
to rectify It, Mend your own fences.
Do your Sunday-school pupils stay
to church?

"and-and. though he's lost his
sight. his memory's clear. And
