MISSIONARY BISHOPS JUBILEE
Bishop Grouard, of Athabaska, Canada,
Will Celebrate His Golden Jubilee
on June 90.

The Rt. Rev. Emile Grouard, o. M.
l., Vicar Apostolic of Athabaska, in
the Canadian Slave Lake country, will
on June 29 and 80 celebrate the golden
jubilee of his ordination to the priest
hood. Forty-nine years ago the VEN
cradle prelate, then priest of year,
penetrated to the far North to carry
the gospel of Christ to its savage
tribesmen. At that time nobody but
the agents of the Hudson Bay Co., an
occasional stray trapper and one or
two representatives of the govern
ment ever visited the Slave Lake coun-
try.
Times have changed since then and
today the region is drawing the pick
of the men of the rest of Canada,
England and the United States.
Bishop Grouard, now a silver-bearded
patriarch of seventy-seven years, has
had his part in this transformation of
the country, and his jubilee will be
fittingly observed.
Bishop Grouard was cOnsecrated
Titular Bishop of 1bora on August
1, 1891, and placed in charge of the
Vicariate Apostolic of Athabaska in
succession to the Right Reverend
Henry Faraud, o. M. I. He is assisted
in the administration of his Vicariate
by his co-adjutor, the Right Reverend
Bishop Joussard, o. M. I.

SIERRA CROSS
Symbol Of Redemption Again at San
Ruenaventura Mission.

The restoration of the old cross
erected by Padre Junipero Sierra and
his followers at the founding of the
San Buenaventura Mission near Ven
tura, Cal, is occupying the attention
Of the people of that city. The orig
inal cross fell and was replaced by
another. which stood for nearly a
century, or until 1877, when it fell
during a severe storm.
The plan for restoring the cross will
be financed by the E. C. o. Club of
Ventura. The cross will be placed
as near as possible in the original
position. It will be of wood, thirty
feet in height Like the original
cross it will be hewn from the pines
Of Santa Paula canyon.
A winding path will be built to the
cross site at the top of the hill, and it
is possible that the cross will be out
lined with electric lights SO that it
will be visible at night.

FATHER |GNAT|Us, ,TRAPP|ST
Death of President of Mount MeIIeray,
Ireland-Was Prior of New MeIIe-
ray Abbey, Near Dubuque, in 1860.

The Very Rev. Ignatius Foley, o. G.
R., President of Mt. Melleray Sem
mary for half century, died after a
lingering illness, at Mt. Melleray
Abbey, Cappoquin, County Waterford,
Ireland, on May 6. Born in 1924,
Father Ignatius, as he was called,
spent his long life in the service of re-
ligion and the education of youth.
Graduating from the college of which
he afterward became president in
1S47, he joined the Order of Cister-
slams, or Trappists, and after complet-
ing his theological studies, was Or
dained priest in 1851. He came to
America in 1860 as prior of New Mel
leray Abbey, Dubuque, Iowa. He trav-
eled extensively throughout the United
States in the interests of the strug-
Cling community, which consisted of a
few fathers who emigrated from the
parent monastry in Ireland. Return
ing home, he was made head of the
institute over which he presided until
his death. Graduates of the famous
seat of learning are scattered over the
whole world. Father Ignatius was
we'll known throughout the United
States, Great Britain and Australia.
The news of his demise will be a
source of regret to hundreds of stu
dents who in former times looked up
to him as a father and advisor and
teacher. He was man of great force
of character, an accomplished linguist,
an orator, and an erudite scholar His
remains were laid away in the little
graveyard of the Abbey, and a. small
black cross marks his resting place,
bearing the simple legend, Father

COLUMBUS MEMORIAL
Program for dwelling Practically
CompIeted-Address by Presi-
dent Taft and Others-Parade
and Banquet.

The official program of the exercises
incident to the unveiling of the
statue of Columbus, in Washington, D.
c., June s, has been practically COM
pleted.
On the reviewing stand there will
be accommodations for 2,430 persons,
and at the Office of Col Cosby, execu-
tive officer of the Columbus commits
sion of the government, there are re-
quests for seats sufficient to fill four
or five other stands of similar size
The citizens committee has therefore
arranged for the erection of a 10000
seat stand, directly facing the official
one.
The program as completed to date
states that the presiding officer will be
Secretary of State Knox. The invoca-
tion will be by Rt. Rev. Mgr. Thomas
Shahan, rector of the Catholic Univer-
sity of America. The initial address
will be delivered by Chief Justice
Victor J. Bowling of the Supreme
Court of New York Marquis Cusani
Confalonieri, Italian ambassador to the
United States, will unveil the statue.
President Taft will address the
assemblage, as will also Representa-
tive James T. McCleary, who was
chairman of the house committee on
the library when the Columbus memo
rial bill passed congress.
The exercises at the monument are
expected to last about an hour and a
half, following which a monster pa
geant will be reviewed. 1t is thought
there will be between 10000 and $4,000
men in line. Brig-Gen. Robert X.
Evans, chief of militia affairs, war
department, is to be marshal. He
will ride at the head of about $4,000
troops. 1t is expected that inasmuch
as Christopher Columbus was the first
sailor to reach this continent the mid
dies from the Naval Academy at An
napolis will be in the line of march.
The next section of the parade will
be made up of the Knights of Colum-
bus, with their Supreme knight,
James A. Flaherty of Philadelphia, at
their head. 1t is estimated that there
will be over 10000 members of the
order in the parade. The Italian so
cieties of the country will also be well
represented.
A banquet will be held in the even
ing at o'clock. The President and
official life generally in Washington
will attend this feast, which will take
place at the mammoth Convention
Hall. There will be 1900 at the ban
quet.
A big citizens committee, composed
of members of the Board of Trade and
Chamber of Commerce, has arranged
four days Of unusual amusement in

BISHOP ELECTED MAYOR
Bishop De Ligonnes of Rodez, France,
Elected Mayor of AuriIlae by a Ma
jority of 1900 Over His Masonic
Opponent.

Right Reverend Mgr. De Ligonnes,
Bishop of the Diocese of Rodez, in
the department of Aveyron, France,
struck mortal blow at the Radical
party and it's Masonic associates on
May 29, when he was elected Mayor
of the city of Aurillac against Doctor
Fesq, Radical, the present incumbent
For the past four years DR.. Fesq,
who is prominent Mason, was at the
head of that municipality. He was a
bitter anti Catholic and devoted most
of his time in looking for ways and
means whereby he could persecute
the Catholic people of his city with
success.
This year Bishop De Ligonnes de-
cided to bring an end to the physi-
clans career as a politico-servant of
the Masonic lodges and announced his
candidacy against him. The Bishop
refused to deliver single political ad.
dress, but before the polls opened at
Marie yesterday morning he ad-
dressed the assembled voters and told
them the reasons that had impeIIed
him to become candidate. He was
elected by a majority of 1900.

RICH IN RELICS
St. Andrews Church, Rome, Has
Many Relics of Saints.

This Church of st. Andrew is in the
Via del Quirinale, Rome. It was built
in 1887 by Prince Camille Pamphill
on Bernini's designs for the novitiate
of the Jesuits. It is richly decorated
inside with various marbles.
The body of ST. Stanislas is vener-
ated in the second chapel to the left.
It is enclosed in magnificent urn of
lapis lazuli. Over the altar is a mag
nificent picture of the Saint by Carlo
Maratta.
Part of the room of st. Francis
Borgia may be seen, and part of the
chapel where st. Ignatius used to cele-
brate Mass. An autograph letter of
Blessed Canisius, recommending st.
Stanislas to st. Francis Borgia is kept
here, as well as autograph letters by
st. Leonard of Port Maurice, st. Louis
Gonzaga, s. Alphonsus Liguori, st.
Alphonsus Rodriguez and a very i'm
portant letter by st. John Berchmans,
describing the canonisation of st.
Ignatius.
In the recess on the left of the high
altar is the sepulchral monument of
Charles Emmanuel v, King of Sar-
dinia, who abdicated in 1902, entered
the Society of Jesus and died here in
1919.

| CATHOLIC THEATER R
Playhouse to be Leased in New York
City for Moral Productions Only.

New York is to see Catholic thea
ter on Broadway. Cardinal Farley
has promised his support to the pro-
ject. The new playhouse will not be
given over to productions of a relig-
ious nature exclusively, although it
is planned to have many such plays;
but the drama or spectacle staged will
be supervised by the ecclesiastical
authorities of the Archdiocese of New
York as represented by lay council.
Nor is it intended to have the theater
one which will appeal to Catholics
alone. The playhouse will open, ac-
oording to the present plans, early in
the fall theatrical season. 1t is pro-
posed to focus the attention of church
men all over America on the project
1t is not intended to build a theatrical
structure, but rather to lease one at
the beginning.
The movement is intended to be a
constructive one, and the new thea
ter will supply productions of guar
anteed moral quality 1t is to take
the place of the theater where plays
of questionable morality have been
supplied and will be a sort of positive
protest against such plays. The plan
is headed by Miss Eliza OBJ. Lummis,
founder of the Daughters of the
Faith, an organization of Catholic So
ciety women.

PAUL|ST CHOR|sTERs
Win First Prize in international
Musical Fete in Paris-Four Hun
dred and Nlnety-seven choirs Com
pete-Great Honor for America.

The Paulist Chorister Society of
Chicago, numbering one hundred and
fifty, under the direction of Rev. Will
liam Finn, c. S. p, of st. Mary's
Church, won first honors at the In
ternational Fete of Music held at Paris
in the latter part of May. They COM
peted with four hundred and ninety
seven other choral organizations from
England, Ireland, France, Belgium,
Denmark and Switzerland. The
judges were some of the most re-
nowned musicians of the world, such
as Elgar, Massenet, Puccini and Du
Bois.
The officials were so pleased with
the showing made by the Paulist
Choristers that they presented them,
in addition to the first prize, with a
magnificent Sevres vase and a COM
memorative medal Father Finn, the
director, who is in charge of the So
ciety, will be decorated with the
Palmes Academiques. Before return
ing to America the choir will sing in
the leading cities of the continent.
From Paris they went to Rome, where
they gave their first concert on June
3rd in presence of large number of
prelates, musicians and members of
the Sistine and Lateran choirs, all of
whom were profoundly impressed with
their musical ability.
This triumph of the Paulist Choir
listers, says the New World, brings to
the great city of Chicago new honors
worthy of it's people in the musical
world. Nor will the success of the
Paulist Choristers interest and de-
light alone the Catholics of our city
Non-Catholics as we'll as Catholics will
rejoice in their success.

CATHOLIC GYPS|ES
Encampment at EarlsfieId, England,
Attends St. Georges Church.

When one speaks of gypsies in Eng
land one usually thinks of a band of
travelling paupers, more or less dirty,
and usually not persons whom one
would care to have in close proximity.
But the gypsy encampment at Earls-
field is quite different, writes the Lon
don correspondent of the Irish Cath
olic of Dublin. To begin with, the gyp-
sizes are not poor-in fact, they are
quite ostentatious in their display of
wealth. Moreover, they are skilled
metal workers from Galicia, and their
tents are most luxurious. Rich car
pets cover the ground, and divans piled
high with brightly hued cushions seem
to tempt one to repose thereon.
The men and women are most pic
turesque in their gorgeous raiment, the
men being arrayed as zouaves, scarlet
trousers and bright yellow shirts, with
concertina top-boots while of orna-
ments they carry not few. The wo-
men-most of them splendid types of
Oriental womanhood, raven-haired and
scarlet-hpped-are also splendidly ap-
pareled, and they all adopt the same
mode OF hairdressing, namely, two
long p1aits brought over their should
ers and down in front.
When they first arrived i'm London
they encamped on field at Battersea,
but they were speedily removed by the
sanitary authorities Then they took a
large house at Earlsfield, which form
erly belonged to farmer gardener,
and is surrounded by a good deal of
ground. It is here where they have
pitched their tents
On Sunday they attend Mass at the
Church of st. Gregory, Earlsffeld, and
attract much attention by their pictur-
esque appearance. Father Benedict
Williamson, who is i'm charge of the
mission, has speedily made friends
with these nomads from the East and
has presented holy pictures and rosar-
les to the children. Most of the gyp-
sizes speak Russian, but they will soon
learn little English.

BENED|CT|NE MISSIONARIES
In Africa and in Asia-Many Converts
Native Teachers-Missiona So
ciety of Charitable Workers-Amer-
lean Headquarters at st. Meinrad,
Indiana.

The mission house of the Bene-
dictines in st. Ottilien, Bavaria, was
established in 1887 for the purpose of
taking charge of missions in heather
countries. Since 1888 the mission
aries sent out have been laboring in
German East Africa and in the Apos-
tolic Vicariate of Daressalam, which
the Holy See placed in their charge.
These missionaries in Africa had to
overcome many dificulties-the re-
bellions of the Arabs in 1889 and 1905
1906, during which ten of the priests
and Sisters were killed, and many
victims among their members.
Their struggles and endeavors have
not, however, been in vain. Since
1883 eleven thousand pagans have
been baptized, 1000 of whom are still
living within the territory; the others
have either died or moved. Within
thousand heathens have been bap-
tized, $4,000 Holy Communions have
been given, and many negroes, who
were sick or disabled, have been
treated or had their wounds dressed
by priests and Sisters who had been
instructed in the work.
The Vicariate Apostolic of Dares-
salam, which covers territory of
100000 square kilometers and has a
million and a quarter inhabitants,
has now Ia main stations, 81 sub-sta-
tions and 153 schools, which are fire.
quented by 6,843 boys and 3,433 girls,
who receive their instructions free of
charge, and the greater part of whom
are fed and clothed by the missions
and become good Christians and use
full members of the community. Many
of the boys are taught trade and
the girls are instructed in domestic
work.
Hospitals, dispensaries, homes for
lepers with 1900 inmates, have been
established in three missionary sta
tions. The lepers, who are Stunned
by both black and white, are attend
ed by the missionaries and the
Sisters, who dress their ugly wounds
and give them medicine. The mis-
sionaries not only afford them tenn
poral relief, but they also show them
the road to heaven.
At present 53 missionaries, As Sis
ters-the latter from Tutzing, Ba-
varia-and 1T native teachers labor
in the Vicariate-Apostolic and 531
catechumenS are being DreDared for
baptism.
In 1909 the missions in Korea
were established and since then
manual training schools and one SEM
mary for the education of native
teachers have been started.
The work of the missionaries has
been very fruitful in Asia as we'll as
in Africa; but in either country there
is shortage of laborers in the
Lords vineyard. Many missionaries
priests and brothers-are needed.
Plenty of work awaits them. But
there is also, especially in Africa, a
shortage of money to continue the
work of building new churches,
school houses and hospitals. A mis-
sionary society, the Charitable Work
ers of st. Benedict, has been started
to procure the necessary funds. The
head office of this society is in St.
Ottilien, Bavaria. The general agent
for America is Rev. Father Vincent,
o. S. B., st. Meinrad, Indiana.
