A MISSIONARY DELEGATE.

Everybody who has met the present
Apostolic Delegate to the United
States, His Excellency, the Most Rev
erend John Bonzano, D. D., Archbish-
op of Melitene, has remarked upon
the youthful appearance of one who
has had so much experience of the
arduous work that falls to the lot Of
the missionaries of the Catholic
Church. Monsignor Bonzano was for
many years in China, and his exper-
fence there has led him to be great
and firm believer in the missionary
spirit.
The Catholic Church Extension Soci-
ETY. has been honored with an appre-
ciative letter from His Excellency
Monsignor Bonzano. Il wish to take
advantage" His Excellency writes, "ot
the present occasion, to thank you
and the officers of your Society for
your kind letter of greeting on my
arrival in the United States. I am
glad to know that the good work you
are engaged in is prospecting, as have
known of the work that you have
been doing since the inception of your
Society. I hope and pray that God
will bless your efforts, and so extend
the great work that you are doing
with your missions, and in this way
add to the greater glory of the Catho
lie Church in the United States"
Such warm encouragement from the
representative of the Holy Father in
this country combines the three SOW
ereign gifts of Faith, Hope and Char
ity. Faith insomuch that it shows
confidence in the Extension Society
and the men controlling it's affairs
Hope insomuch that it expresses warn
wishes for future success in the gooe
work of spreading the Faith; ane
Charity insomuch that it displays
sincere and heartfelt interest in the
cause of Extension.
His Excellency Monsignor Bonzant
has been for five years a reader o
the Society's publications, and appre
ciates the conditions existing in this
country and the work that is being
carried on to assist the missionary
Monsignor Bonzano knows himself
from his own experience, just how
welcome is outside assistance to me1

much good such assistance can &C

WHERE HELP is MUCH NEEDED!

To those who realize the hardshlps
of a Catholic Missionary, who has
given the best part of his life to rellgl-
Gus works, and has built several
churches at considerable expense ana
a great deal of labor on his own part,
| earnestly appeal to you to assist me
as best YOU can, with such contrlbu-
tions as YOU might feel disposed to
give, or solicit from your friends,
towards helping me make SUCH aool-
lions to nv house as would make 1t
worthy the name of Rectory, ana
afford it's occupants common COM
forts. This home, of course, belongs
to the Church, but was built at my
own expense after the original was
destroyed by fire several years ago
The building is small and unfinished;
it is only partly ceiled and parity
painted, and while it is habltable' II
is not as comfortable as an humble
home should be- All my friends and
all my fellow priests who have visited

it's crudeness, and declared that
should have a more com1ortaole
house. This l know is true, but can
secure such home only through your
help: and, therefore, l send you this
appeal for assistance, and beseech you
to use your influence among those Oh
YOUR friends who are able to contrib

done the best they could for me, Du'
