RESIGNS PHILIPPINE SEE
The Right Reverend Bishop Carroll Re-
signs the See of Nueva Segovia and
Becomes Pastor of Philadelphia
Parish.

With the consent of the Holy See
the Right Reverend James J. Carroll,
ID. D., has resigned the See of Nueva
Segovia in the Philippine Islands to
become Titular Bishop of Metellopolis
and Irremovable Rector of the Church
of st. Edward the Confessor in Phila-
delphia. Bishop Carroll went to the
Philippine Islands in 1903 with Bishop
Dougherty, of Nueva segovia. When
the latter was translated to the
larger Diocese of Jaro, Bishop Carroll
was appointed his successor and was
consecrated in Manila on February IA,
1909.
In 1911, while on missionary Jour-
ney, Bishop Carroll was thrown over
a precipice by his horse as he was
descending a steep mountain road. The
fall fractured his hip and he has never
succeeded in recovering his health.
He came to this country to secure
treatment, but was finally compelled
to give up all hope of returning to his
See. He now returns to his former
diocese and has been appointed by
Archbishop Prendergast to the rector
ship of the Church of St. Edward the
Confessor.

CARDINAL kOPP's JUBILEE
Jubilee of Priesthood and Episcopacy
Celebrated in Breslau-He Has Ac-
complished Much for Church and
State in Prussia.

In the early part of November, His
Eminence George Cardinal Kopp,
Prince Bishop of Breslau in Prussia,
celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary
of his elevation to that important See.
For six years prior to that time he
had been Bishop of Fulda. This jubilee
anniversary, which was also the golden
jubilee of his priesthood, was cele-
brated with great eclat in his Epis-
copal city. On the eve of the celebra-
ton the President of the Prussian
Chamber presented the greetings of
the people to the Most Reverend Jul
biliarian, who also received kilograms
of congratulations from Emperor Will
liam of Germany and Francis Joseph
of Austria.
His Eminence was born in July,
1887, at Duderstadt in the Diocese of
Hildesheim. He was ordained to the
priesthood in the Cathedral of Hides
helm in 1862, and in 1881 was conse-
Grated Bishop of Fulda. He had
charge also of the vacant Dioceses of
Limbourg, Paderborn and Cologne. He
was on good terms with Bismarck and
it was through his intelligence, skill
and diplomacy that the May Laws
which softened the severity of the
Kulturkampf were enacted.
In 1886 the King of Prussia called
him to the Upper House as a perman-
ent member, privilege which he also
enjoys in the exclusive Austrian Upper
Chamber. In 1887 he was translated
from Fulda to the See Of Breslau, the
second in Importance in the German
Empire. 1t counts three million sub
jects in Germany, and three hundred
thousand in Austria. 1t is composed
of great many nationalities each
speaking a different tongue. During
his administration he has done much
for the Church and State and occupies
a unique position in the affairs of his
country. He was created and pro-
claimed Cardinal by Leo XIII in
1898.

CATHOLIC SCHOOL OF SCIENCE
The Central Verein Will Erect an
Academy for Social Studies, Prob
ably in Chicago.

A great step towards the realiza-
tion of the social reform propaganda
of the German Roman Catholic Central
Verein of the United States has been
taken in the decision of that body to
erect a school of social study. This
action was taken at the convention
held at Toledo, o., last September.
Since then the plan has progressed
and site has been decided upon. Al
though no official announcement has
been made in regard to the location
of the proposed house of studies it is
not improbable that Chicago will be
chosen. Some thirteen thousand dol
lars have been pledged by members of
the Central Verein, by priests and
laymen, and other contributions are
still coming in.
The erection of separate academy
for the study of the social sciences,
under Catholic auspices and for Cath
olics, is not only a novelty in the
United States but pronounced neces-
sity. Catholics generally are becom-
ing more and more aware of the grow
ing importance of the social question
and are realizing the need of CO.
operating in it's solution. They have,
moreover, passed the stage Of believ-
ing that they could cooperate effective
ly without special and adequate prepa-
ration. And because of the vital Ques-
tions of principles and policy involved
they have become convinced that a
necessary part of the equipment of
Catholic sociologists and Catholic So
cial workers is a specifically Catholic
training; training which will not
only advise practical means of correc-
tion, prevention and relief for social
ills, but will also inculcate Catholic
doctrine as applied to social science,
and teach it's application to the great
present-day problems.
The Central Verein which has been
engaged in social reform work for
some years past and has standing
committee on Social Propaganda, ap-
pointed some five years ago, is seizing
the problem at the right end. While
doing all the practical work it is able
to do along these lines it proposes
also to lay the foundation for the
carrying out of it's program in the
future by preparing men for this work
in a special institution. The Verein
is evidently convinced that permanent
ly successful social activity can not
be maintained without previous social
study; an axiom universally admitted
by economists and sociologists, and
repeatedly insisted on by the Holy
Father as well as by his august pre-
decessor.

SECOND MISSIONARY CONGRESS
Will Be Held i'm Boston Next May
Under the Auspices of the Catholic
Church Extension Society-A Motor
Chapel Car Will Supplement the
Work of the Chapel Cars.

At the annual meeting of the Board
of Directors of the Catholic Church
Extension Society held in Chicago on
November IA, it was decided to hold
another Missionary Congress in Boston
next May. This Congress will be
modelled after the first Missionary
Congress held in Chicago in 1910 It's
purpose will be to make public the
missionary activities of the Catholic
Church in the United States and to
arouse the people to a fuller realiza-
tion Of the need of helping to carry
the Gospel and the benefits of Catho-
licity to people in the more remote
districts who seldom, if ever see a
priest.
Another important step taken at this
meeting was to authorize the con-
struction of a Motor Chapel Car sim
liar to that in use in England for the
purpose of bearing the consultations of
religion to the remoter portions of the
country, where there are neither
churches nor railroads 1t will do for
these districts what the Chapel Cars
are doing for localities along the line
of the railroads.
Orders have already been given for
the construction of this car and it is
expected that it will be ready for use
in January, when it was sent into
Southwestern Texas, where the Mexi-
cans are at present without adequate
religious facilities. The car will be
built like an ordinary automobile and
requisite for the celebration of Mass
and the administration of the Sacra-
ments. 1t will also have sleeping ac-
commodations for two persons. This
automobile will serve as the sanctuary
of a little chapel constructed by
spreading a large tent to accommo-
date the people who will attend the
services.
This novel car will be dedicated to
st. Christopher, who has been selected
as the patron Saint of automobilists at
the request of the Catholic chauffeurs
of France. His selection is due to the
fact that he was in early life engaged
in the transportation business as
ferryman.
At the executive meeting Edward
Hines, of Chicago, was selected in
place of Sir Ambrose Petrie, whose
business abroad prevented him from
attending the meetings. Appropriations
amounting to $26S,OOO was made for
carrying on the missionary work of
the society.

MEMORIAL TO HEROIC NUNS
Citizens of San Antonio Raise Fund to
Rebuild orphanage Destroyed
by Fire.

The citizens of San Antonio, Texas,
under the leadership of the Chamber
of Commerce, have raised fund of
$4,000 with which to erect a new Or
phanage as memorial to the six Sis
ters of Charity, including Mother Mary
of the Cross, Mother Superior, who per-
ished in the fire that destroyed st.
Johns Orphanage on October 80, after
saving eighty-fve of the eighty-seven
orphan children in their charge.
A site has been secured and the
work will be undertaken at once. In the
meantime the children are being cared
for in temporary quarters, and the
merchants and citizens of San Antonio,
irrespective of creed, have contributed
food and clothing for their immediate
needs.
The former site of the orphanage
was only a few blocks from the center
of the city, the building having been
erected many years ago when San An
tonic was mere village The new
site is in the suburbs, beautiful 1876
acre tract bordering on the San An
tonic River, where the children may
be instructed in the art OF agriculture
and the handling of tools. st. Johns
Orphanage receives all orphan chill
dren and, as the county Judge has
authority to send children there, the
city and county are saved the expense
of maintaining such an institution. The
children sent to st. Johns always
receive the best Of care, the Sisters
being specially trained in the work OF
caring for them and devoting their
lives to the task.
The heroic sacrifice Of the nuns il
worthy Of such a monument as they
would wish and it is felt they would
ask nothing better than that suita-
BILE building be erected for the care
of the children.

THANKSGIVING DAY

trates of the land, none should be so
ment, so loyal in thought as the chill
dren of the Catholic Church, whose
ceaseless proclamation is that of the
dependency of men and of nations

ton devolving upon them by the law
private and public, of this depen-
dency.
Let Americas Thanksgiving Day be
a sacred day to Catholics; let its OBJ
servance be marked among them by
solemn ceremonials in their temples,

ing Day, Thursday, November 2sth,

LETTER OF THE MOST REVEREND
ARCHBISHOP.
The Following Letter With Regard to
Thanksgiving Day Has Been Ad-
dressed by the Most Reverend Arch
bishop to the Clergy of the Diocese
of st. Paul.
Rev. Dear Father:

Rev. Dear Father:
The civil authorities of the Nation
and of the State invite all citizens to
render thanks to Almighty God for
the gracious favors received through
His benign providence during the year
1912 by America and it's people. This
solemn act of religion on the part of
those authorities calls for praise and
recognition. 1t proves that America
as a nation is God-loving and God
fearing, that it has knowledge of the
Supreme Author of all causes in crea-
ton, and of all blessings deriving
therefrom, that it is conscious of it's
duties towards God, and is piously
willing to acquit itself of those duties.
This is only what America should be-
Yet it is much in these days of wide
spread irreligion, of Indifference to-
wards Almighty God, the Lord and
Master of all things, the Giver of all
good, the Saviour and Protector of
men and of nations. Among those
responding to this call of the magis-

opric of Lyons, made vacant some

1852, and was consecrated Bishop OF
Chalons-sur-M Marne on March IL, 1908.

and principles unchanged and incap-
q hln Of oh0mUn,


able of change
in every expression of patriotic aspi-
ration, in whatever has been attempted
for the well being and uplift of the
human race, the Church and it's clergy
have honorably and effectively lab
ored in the foremost rank.
"Unquestionably during the terrible
condition from the middle of the six
tenth century to the middle of the
seventeenth century, when Europe
became drenched in human blood, and
after the downfall of the Roman
Empire, and the so-called German
Holy Empire had broken into discor-
dant States, the Roman Church be-
came the most potential organ for
enforcing peace and law. Seated on
the hills once occupied by the Caesars,
representing supreme spiritual author
ity, great Pontiffs came, like the early
Gregories, Leos and Innocents, who
proclaimed at the various centers of
Europe a true and beneficial law of
nations, and the spirit of the blessed
Founder of Christianity asserted itself
in efforts to check the medieval flood
of cruelty and war.
The Church in the Middle Ages.
Catholicism was the religion of
England's most glorious era, the reli-
gion of her most ennobled patriots.
The body of the Common Law was
given by the Catholic Alfred; he gave
the elective system and that great bull
wark of liberty, trial by jury. And
Edward III gave perfection to the rep
resentative system, and the statute
against constructive treason was en-
acted. All through the Middle Ages
the Catholic Church was the mainstay
of the weak and protector of the op-
pressed. 1t has always been predis-
posed to look at the labor question in
a light favorable to the laborer. For
example in Germany the Lutheran
clergy have held aloof, while the
Catholic priests have taken a fore
most part in recent social discussions.
"The Church manifested a remark
able genius in the development and
reorganization of public charities,
charity in fact, is the triumph of the
Catholic Church; but not charity
which is an encoura cement to i'm
providence and self-surrender. In the
eloquent words of Judge O'Doherty,
The Catholic Church is charity in
action; the tongue of an angel would
be required to do even measurable
justice to Catholic ideals of charity
with American Catholics there ex-
lists the most perfect harmony be-
tween loyalty to country and loyalty
to Church; they are not only good
Catholics in the Church sense, but
broadly catholic in the secular sense
of the word. Catholic primates illus
trate the perfect union of service to
the State and service to God; they
are a bulwark against atheism, and
anarchy, against tearing down of
morality and government upon which
the foundations of a country depend.
Catholicism makes way at grow
ing rate in the United States because
the government let's it alone. Here
the enthusiasm which works miracles
finds free scope. Perfect accord,
without a concordat, exists between
the Church and State in free America,
and in this fortunate country of ours
liberty and religion are natural allies,
and go forward hand in hand
