vor of the laws and the patronage
OF public authority" will be theirs,
Are Faith and Liberty IrreconeiEa-
Bile?
To show how the spirit and letter
of this papal communication was in
culcated upon Catholics, we revert
once more to our Italian gentleman,
the forger OF the chain "Jeruslem,
Rome, and Washington. - The scene
this time lies in the Quaker City, and
the occasion is the eighteenth ami
yersary of the Catholic Club of
Philadelphia, February IA, 1895. In
hall profusely draped with the
American and Papal colors Monsig-
nor Satolli, in response to toast by
the president Of the club, said, after
few Introductory remarks:
The arms of the Roman Catholic
Club of Philadelphia appropriately
express it's character and it's aim In
them / see the symbol of heavenly
light and the sign of mans redemp--
ton by the Manhood: and read that
motto, which is a great principle of
social life, Per fdem Hbertas. This
is solemn declaration against the
error of those who think that the
sacrifice is incompatible with gener-
Gus sentiments, and that clear,
well-defned religious faith is ire
cOneilabIe with liberty.
Every historical epoch has it's spe-
cial conflicts, and from the sixteenth
century down totour own time the
conflict has been between liberty and
authority. 1t is the Office of reli-
gious and social truth to establish
harmony between these two terms.
The excess of social authority leads
to oppression, and the excess of lib
erty leads to license and the disor-
ganiZation of the social fabric. The
equilibrium of the two constitutes
and maintains the life of all society.
Proofs are not needed to show that
it has ever been the highest glory of
the Roman Catholic church, | do not
say to have invented either social au-
thority or social freedom, but to have
maintained the equilibrium and es-
tablished the harmony Of the one
with the other And this harmony
is what is symbolized in the arms
of the Roman Catholic Club Of Phil
adelphia.
l need not tell you how dear to
the heart of the Holy Father is the
Church in America. l need not tell
you the admiration he has for this
great American Republic and all her
institutions. His encyclical, which
we have so lately received, tells
plainly enough his high regard and
tender affection for this country
Loyalty to Church and State, p. 211
e.
The author goes on to say that Ro-
man Catholic clubs have the special
approval of, and are commended by
the Pope. Their mission he charac-
terizes thus:
In Roman Catholic Clubs a filial
affection for the Pope should be
cherished in a special manner. The
Roman Catholic Club ought to feel
that it has special mission-to
teach respect for the Pope in the full
ness Of his dignity and authority, to
sustain him on every occasion, and
to aid his plans with regard to the
Church and to society. And not
only should the Roman Catholic
Church universally exhibit the har-
mony between being a good Roman
Catholic and good citizen, but it
should show how one can submit
with docility to the teachings OF the
Pope, and sustain at the same time

kIL iuxtaposing. Here are two
I'm official statements of the
sovereign ruler of the Catho-
lie Church as to the status of
Catholicism in the United States:
(a) The Pope is pleased with it,
because the laws OF the Republic
protect his church impartially, and
do not oppose it.
OBJ The Pope is not pleased with
1t, because his church does not enjoy
"the favor of the laws and the pat
ronage of the public authority"
The Pope acknowledges that his
church is receiving common favors,
and regrets that he has not-uncom-
mon faVors. What he has is good,
as far as it goes, but it does not go
far enough. There is one thing, one
only thing in the way which keeps
ken notion that the separation of
church and State is expedient.
Hence, his assistance is needed. This
country must be led to see that what
they consider lawful and expedi-
ent" is an erroneous conclusion"
What 1.-THE Assistance of the Pope"
MeanuS.
We remarked that the assistance"
of the Pope could not be required
for defensive purposes. The Pope is
not attacked, but the Pope means to
attack. He means to take the often
sive. We are not seeing any ghosts
of armed Catholics marching through
the land and shooting down Pro
testants. We are not dreaming Of
concealed arsenals in the cellars OF
Catholic citizens, as a gentleman in
the Pioneer Press of St. Paul, mo
Vember 22) imagines. Merely as a
matter of history we would note that
ST. Bartholomew Day of 1872, and
sundry other events, afford food for
reflection. When we speak of at
tacks at this present day, we do nc.
mean an attack with grape and can
lister, but we mean those measur es
which Pope Leo XIII has suggested
to American Catholics in his letter
of January 6, 1895, the letter which
we are now studying. He has sug-
gested:
(a) The enlargement of educa-
tional facilities for Catholics In the
United States, the Pope himself TAX
ing the lead by founding Eat Wash
ington, your capital city, a Catholic
university Il. C. PIP. S24-326);
(b) Submission to the statutes

timore, the Pope himself putting,

due establishment by the Apostolic
See of an American Legation" opp.
326-33O);
(c) The general adoption by
American citizens of ''the Catholic
teaching and the Catholic customs
regarding marriage and divorce (p.
$50 f);
(d) "The virtue of temperance,
the frequent use of the sacramento,
and observance of the just laws and
institutions of the Republic (p.

The hearina Of An4..

Naturalists generally appear to
have accepted the opinion that ants
are not able to perceive any sounds
that are audible to human ears.
but there are those who controvert
this opinion. One Investigator con-
Quoted careful experiments with
four species of American ants. from
which he deduced the conclusion
that these species, at least. were
able to perceive sounds, but whether
they did it by means of organs of
hearing or through the sense Of
touch being excited by atmospheric
vibrations, he was unable to ascer-
tam. This experimenter inclincs to
the opinion that ants do really hear,
as some individuals showed a per-
ception of the direction of the
sound. such as that of shrill wills
tie, and others, which were not dis
turbed when violently shaken i'm
their glass prisons, seemed greatly
to be perturbed by shrill sounds.

KEEPING STEP 70 MUSIC.
Why Some Men In Parade A. ovss
20 ae Out 81 Time.

There are many thousand men IN
our army and thousands more in.
the militia OF the several states, but
every one of them has at some time
or other. in some parade or other,
cursed nucntly the leading company
(the one right behind the band) for
not keeping step with the music OF
the band. 1t is common sight,
whether the soldiers be regulars or
militia, to see companies with diff
fcrent step when they ought to be
by regulation with the same step.
Call to mind any parade recently
seen and the remark will be verified.
1t is an easy thing for the most
ignorant soldier to learn how to
keep step, and as rule all do know.
Especially is this SO when applied
to the scrgeants who are called
guides and whose step the whole
company has to take up.
or course the reason is found in
the comparative slowness of sound
travel. Each company in a parade
really has step with the music that
it hears, but the farther back it is
the later does il hear the music, and
consequently the later is the step
until beyond certain distance the
step is too soon, having lost pc
Rod.
To get the exact distance the fol
lowing calculation will suffice: In
ordinary quick time the soldier steps
twice in a second. In one-fourth
second, then, man will have raised
his foot TO the highest point, thus
executing half . step. At this iden-
teal instant the sound Of the note
has Just reached man ninety yards
behind and his foot will just be
striking the ground. A man ninety
yards farther will have the step Of
the front man, but it will be on the
wrong foot, and while the position
of the foot VIII be the same the ac-
tual step will be all wrong because
Of this. a man ninety yards farther
will have his foot in the identical
position with the second man, but il
will also be the wrong foot. Not
until we strike a man ninety yards
still farther do we find one with the
same step IS the first man. All this
because sound travels at about 800
yards a second.
OF course the regulation in the
army prcscribcs that soldier keep
step with his company guide and
that each succeeding guide keep step
with the one in front, thus making
every one keep step with the guide
Of the first company. This is the
regulation, but few live up to it.
Even the officers of rear company
will think that their company is the
only one with the right step and
think that the forward guide will
catch it in minute and so they
don't change.
There is nothing prctticr than a
long column of soldiers in perfect
step, yet it is the rarcst thing in
the world for them to be SO unless
they are marching round in a wide
circle whore every man can see the
front man.-l.awrence Hodges in
Chicago Record Herald.

HAWAIIAN DIVERS.
rhsy Fight the Huge Ocean Breakers
10 Get Their Firewood.

In certain OF tie Hawaiian Is
lands the natives dive for their fire
wood. This is drift that is brought
down from the uplands BY freshets
that follow heavy rains. Much Of
the island timber is extremely
heavy, and, instead OF floating in
orthodox fashion, it promptly sinks
to the bottom. As the freshet
gains Roadway. down come the
heavy tree trunks and branches,
dashing iercely against the rough
lava sides of the stream and bump
ing against the bottom until all
semblancc of their original shape is
lost, and they are bruised into
shapeless blocks or split into kim
ding.
The current carries them we'll
into the ocean, where they settle
into the sand. The first stage of
their journey is over. In day or
two the ocean rises and sends in
huge breakers upon the shore,
which catch the logs and splinter
and roll them over and over, still on
the bottom, toward the beach.
At this point the opportunity for
which the natives have been waiting
presents itself. They are out in
force, men. women and children, to
combine business with pleasure.
The men dive into the breakers
under the big combcrs and rising on
the crests Of the smaller ones until
they are out shoulder high. Then
they feel around with their feet
until they find a piece of wood,
which, large or small, the Kanaka
dives down hcadforemost to seize.
The women and children wade in
a little distance to catch the smaller
pieces that get past the men and
soon the piles on the shore assume
considerable proportions. Some
times piece Of wood may be so
large as to require the aid of a rope
to pull it in; but, whether the wood
pieces be large or small, the work
Of diving for them is no easy mat
ter.-Philadelphia Record.

Scientists have known of mush-
room growing ants for long time,
and it was generally believed that
the ant was the only insect possess
ing sufficient intelligence to make
a successful mushroom farmer.
Professor J. Bouverie, the French
entomologist, has found that GER
tain wood boring beetle known as
the Bostrychide is as familiar with
mushroom cultivation for home con-
sumption as the ant. Professor
Bouverie discovered that the beetles
bore holes in wood and half fill
them with prepared fungus which
makes an ideal mushroom bed. The
garden is carefully spawned and
tended and in course of time the
mushrooms appear. In this way the
beetle provides itself with a food
sufficiently tender for its feeble
jaws.

The Secret Of influence.

Force, fcrvor. intcnsity-these
are the qualities which have given
their power to great leaders in all
the movements by which the world
has been swayed. Sometimes they
have been present in men who left
so little written memorial or whose
efforts were foiled by adverse cir
cumstanccs that we can note only
the fact that they must have been
remarkable because their contem-
.poraiics admired and followed them.

they manifested it, They are among

Erskine.s Green Raa.

The old fashioned green bag that
lawyers carried to court in the long
ago-the kind Dickens describes in
David Copperfield and in the case of
Jarndyee versus Jarndyce, is prac-
tically thing of the past. Many
stories cluster around that ancient
emblem of the profession, the green
bag. When Erskine was in the full
tide of success as a barristcr some
of his fellow lawyers, wishing to
annoy him, hired a boy to ask him
as he was going into court with his
green bag stuffed with briefs if he
had any old clothes for sale.
