DIOCESE OF WINONA

Mankato: The German Catholic
Benevolent Societies which recently
convened here decided with practical
unanimity that after January first the
official organ of the societies will be
printed in both English and German,
instead of German only as heretofore.
The finance committee reported that
the expenses of the convention
amounted to $2,156.86
Among the Notre Dame Sisters who
were transferred last month to the
Motherhouse of Our Lady of Good
Council in Mankato, was Sister
Demetria who, as a young girl fifty
years ago at New Ulm, witnessed the
scenes of the Indian uprising which
are just now being commemorated in
many towns of Minnesota Shortly
after the Indian massacre she left
Minnesota and two years later at the
age of fifteen she entered the Mother
house of the Notre Dame Sisters at
Milwaukee. On her return after an
absence of fifty years from Minnesota,
she enjoyed reunion with her rela-
tlves whom she had not seen during
the interval of half century. She
remembers wildly the attack of the
Indians on New Ulm, and the scenes
within the town-the burning build
ings, the confusion and the excitement
and the courage of the valiant de-
tenders.
Rochester: Work has been COM
menced on the new heating plant
which is to supply steam heat to the
five parochial buildings of st. Johns
parish. 1t will be situated near the
middle of the square in order to
facilitate the heating of the church,
the Sisters school, the pastors resi-
dence, the Brothers school and their
home.

theirs, Rev. Mathew Weyer, G. IS. R.

sion at Dundee.

CATHOLIC GROWTH
IN GERMANY
-" ' '~s ~ s%

A comparative survey of denomina-
tional conditions in Germany made by
a correspondent of the Christian
World" London, indicates that Cath
olics have made considerably larger
growth in proportion to the popula-
ton during the last forty years than
the Protestants. Forty years ago the
Protestants numbered $40 to the thou
sand of population and the Catholics
1886. Now the Professionals are 618
and the Catholics 1863 to the thousand,
showing that the Catholics have risen
~ and the Protestants have fallen 81
to the thousand. In the same period
the Jews in Prussia have fallen from
Is to 10 to the thousand. Outside
of the 24,83O,9O8 Professionals, 1881
6O4 Catholics and 416,867 Jews of the
present, "residuum" is left of 1885,
$40 persons whose confession of faith
is unknown. The increase of this
residuum from 1887 in 1905, is as
cribed partly to secessions from the
national Church and partly to the
growth of Baptists and Methodists,
who will find it strange to be classed
las of unknown faith" Berlin is the
only place of importance where the
number of Protestants has not abso-
lutely increased since 1905. The in
creasing ratio of Catholic numbers is
partly ascribed to their larger fam
lilies.

The De La Sale Literary Society
held it's first regular meeting of the
1928 session, Friday, September
9th This society is composed of
members of the Senior Glass. There
is an amount of extraordinary literary
talent in this class and all are anxious
to begin the regular weekly programs.
The following officers were elected
at the last meeting: President, Mr..
Richard Boland; Vice-President, Mr..
Frank Duffy; Secretary, Mr.. Ralph
Branton; Treasurer, Mr.. Henry Stef-
fes, Marshal, Mr. Albert Haffner. A
select program was reported by Mr..

modern conditions by the present
Pontiff. Cardinals in Rome also at
tend Of course public Consistories, ut
which the Pope confers red hats,
brings to a conclusion a process OF
canonization, receives ambassadors,
etc. But Bishops and other prelates
may assist at such Consistories.
The Cardinals most important duty,
however. is the election of Bishop
of Rome when the See is vacant. This
duty belongs to them and to them
alone. On the Holy Fathers death a
commission of four Cardinals at once
takes charge OF all current business,
summons from all parts of the world
their brother Cardinals to enter a
conclave and proceed to an election
Though a Cardinal is commonly
chosen, there Is no restriction on the
electors. Any man who may be or be-
come Bishop may be elected.

St. Johns University: Despite tt

St. Johns University: Despite the
stricter entrance requirements, the
registration at st. Johns University
is record-breaking. All places are al
ready occupied and applications had
to be refused for want of accommo-
dations. The vast majority are stu
dents of the Classical Course. The
Commercial Hall is being used par
TALLY for students of the Classical De-
newspaper advertising, it is evident
that the best advertisers of a school,
it's alumni, are swelling the numbers.
Owing to the warm weather in early
September, baseball and other sum-
mer sports were continued till the
cold weather set in. Swimming was
most pleasant feature of the early
school-year. Fishing and boating had
their yotaries as usual The football
leagues, major and minor, are in full
swing at present. The boys have been
so interested both in their studies
and sports that inconsistencies has
numbered only one victim.
The first Sunday of the school year,
the Rt Rev. Peter Engel, O. S. B.,
abbot of ST. Johns Abbey and Presi-
dent of the University dedicated the
new Lourdes Grotto, which was built
by the clerics during vacation. It is
situated in steep bank of the north
shore of the lake, stones throw from
the college, The Rt. Rev. Abbot spoke
briefly on the Veneration of Saints
on the occasion. The choir sang two
hymns in honor of the Blessed Virgin,
whose grotto was being dedicated.
The entire student body participated
in the celebration.
Faculty and students extended a
hearty welcome to Mr. Edward M.
Flynn of st Paul, who returned Oc-
tober 1 to take charge of the Depart
ment of Physical Training, over which
he has presided for the past three
years with marked success.
Forty Hours: The Devotion of the
Forty Hours held in the Immaculate
Conception parish, St. Cloud, came
to a close Tuesday evening, the Rt.
Rev. Bishop officiating at the closing
devotions.
St. Joseph: The cornerstone of the
new Sisters chapel will be laid with
appropriate ceremonies by the Ri.
Rev. Bishop next Sunday afternoon,
October 18th.
Church Decorations: The Associated
Artists of Milwaukee have completed
the decoration of the st. Boniface
Church, Melrose, and have now begun
work on the Freeport Church, the
contract for which they have accepted
for $4,000. This same firm of decora
tors some time ago completed the
work now to be seen in the Cathedral
Church and in st. Johns Abbey.

the possessor of a beautiful Pieta, the
gift of the Christian Mothers society
of the parish.

DIOCESE OF SIOUX FALLS
Diocesan Correspondent: Rev. G.
Walsh Box 81. Sioux Falls S. d.

Confirmation: Since the first week
in September Rt. Rev. Bishop O'Gor-
man has been engaged in visiting
parishes in the different parts of the
diocese and administering the Sacra-
ment of Confirmation. He intends to
devote four more weeks to this work,
and during the time will have covered
large part of the diocese. The Con-
firmation tour is a particularly graft
flying one this year, as this part of
South Dakota has been blessed with
an abundant harvest, and signs of
prosperity are evident on every side.
So rapidly have some of the parishes
been developing that it has become
necessary to divide them and estab-
lish new ones. The Bishop gave orders
| for parish houses to be built at sew
eral missions, which next year he will
erect into parishes. Several new
schools have also been projected and
properties have been acquired for the
purpose.
Over five hundred children were
confirmed in the two churches at
Aberdeen. From there the Right Rev
erend Bishop went west as far as
Mobridge, returning to dedicate the
church at Groton. He finished the
weeks work at Andover.
The following week was spent in
Britton and the surrounding country
These trips are not devoid of unusual
happenings, sometimes there are al
most thrilling adventures. The jour
ney from one parish to another is
/ generally made by automobile, and
priests from the surrounding parishes
accompany the Bishop. Now auto
guide books are not complete and one
has to depend on local talent. Some
times it happens that the party falls
into the hands of one, who must be
far more skillful as spiritual guide
than as an automobile guide across
the open prairie. Such a one was
found in certain county in the
North. Disregarding the axiom that
the shortest distance between two
points is a straight line, he attempted
circle-sailing. Starting early in the
afternoon to conduct the party from
his own house to that of his neighbor
some sixty miles away, for supper, hi
landed, in the wee-sma1l hours of th<
morning, at the place of departure

Fargo: A magnificent statue of st.
Mary Immaculate has been placed in
the niche of the facade of st. Mary's
Cathedral to replace the old wooden
one which has stood there since the
Cathedral was built. The statue is in
the heroic size and of the purest Car
rara marble from the famous quarries
of that name at Pietrasanta, Italy. The
figure without pedestal stands nine
feet high and is the largest statue of
Carrara marble in any church of the
Northwest. Our Blessed Lady is
represented with hands joined in
prayer and crushing beneath her feet
the head of the serpent. The statue
is work of art 1t was ordered a
year ago by Father Egan and imported
by the Deprato Statuary Company of
Chicago at the cost of seven hundred
dollars. The statue itself weighs for
ty-five hundred pounds and stands on
Kasota stone pedestal which weighs
ton and a quarter. The members of
ST. Mary's Cathedral are very proud
of this addition to the facade of the
Cathedral.

and October LIST, he celebrated Mass
in st. Joseph's Church where all the
parishioners are Indians. While there
he received two converts to the Faith
and gave thirty-seven Communions.
One edifying feature of the service
here, was the singing of Catholic
hymns by the congregation in their
native Indian tongue. Mass will be
celebrated there again, November 26
and %.
Eighteen miles from st. Joseph's is
church built of logs last year and
dedicated to st. Leo. Mass was cele-

ing converts as it goes to the root of
all controversaries and demonstrates
the divine guidance of the official
teaching Church. In the hands of a
well-disposed nom Catholic it will do a
world of good in solving difficulties
and removing prejudices. To Catho-
lies, also, it is valuable as an aid in
strengthening their faith by placing
before them in a simple and direct
manner the fundamental truths on
which it is based. To enable the
priest, even on the poorest mission, to
give out this book freely, it is offered,
when purchased directly from the
Ohio Apostolate, with cash accompany
ing the order, at $500 per one hundred
copies-a bare trifle above the cost of
production.
