I. Why does sister not wish to
tell what her name was before
entering the convent? Also her ma
tionality? 2. Why is our Blessed
Lady called Virgin and Mother?
3. Could widow who has no children
enter a convent? q. When was the
Order of the Sisters of St. Joseph
founded?
1. A sister has no objection to
telling her nationality and what her
name was before entering religion to
any one who has a right to know
these things. She is not ashamed OF
either; but she should not be blamed
for refusing to satisfy the idle curios-
ity of every inquisitive person who
tries to pry into her private affairs.
2. Because she is what the words, in
their strictest sense, signify-a Virgin
and, at the same time, Mother. A
Virgin, because, as she herself de-
clared, II know not man.; a Mother
because she brought forth the sacred
person of the Son of God through the
power and operation of the Holy
Ghost. 3. Yes, if she be otherwise
eligible. 4. The Order of the Sisters
of st. Joseph was founded at LIE Puy
in France in the year 1850. The
American branch of the Order came
to this country at the solicitation
of Bishop Rosati of St. Louis who
on a visit to the Motherhouse at
Lyons, secured from Mother st. John
Fontbonne permission for few sisters
to leave France and establish home
in America They landed in New Or
leans in the month of January, 1886
and arrived in st. Louis on the Feast
of the Annunciation. The Motherhouse
was established at Carondolet near St
| Louis.
I. What is the difference between
the soul and the conscience? 2. Are
we allowed to pray for dead Protes
tants and have Masses said for them
3. If Catholic woman gets a divorce
from her husband and marries a Pro
testant what must she do to become {
member of the Church again?
1. The soul is the principle of life
that which makes man a rationa
creature. The conscience is tina
which enables the individual to dis
tinguish between right and wrong
It is the practical Judgment of the
mind regarding the morality of a par
ticular act. 1t interprets the law o
God for the individually; and whenever
we go contrary to it's dictates we sin
2. Yes. 3. She must separate from
the second man and make PREPARATION
as far as possible for the scandal sh&
gave by setting at nought the laws o
the Church regarding marriage.

Regardless of the warning given by

ers of both Federal and Insurrecto
forces in Mexico, a rain of bullets
poured into Douglas, Ariz, from the
battle fought at Aqua Prieta. Seven
non-combatant Americans in Douglas
were wounded, one of whom may die,
and school houses, residences and the
custom house were riddled. with Mexi
can shot. 1t was day almost of ter
ror in the American town. The ba.
tie began at dawn and lasted until
shutdown, ending in the repulse of the
government forces, but was not DE-
cisive. The Insurrectos captured tive
Federal machine guns and a large
quantity of ammunition. The United
States Government made second de-
mand upon Mexico for assurances the
American lives in border towns shall
not be endangered by shot from bat
tie on Mexican territory. The previ
Gus warning from this country was
disregarded by both forces in the
battle of Aqua Prieta.
