'BR. sCRARF NOT REINsTGTED
His Petition Denied at Meeting Of the

The petition of DR.. e. l.. Scharf for
reinstatement into the Knights of
Columbus, from which he was expelled

made against him ON the floor of Con-
gress by Congressman Ben Johnson of

Order at their recent New York meet

tain the following entry:
"Dr. Emil l.. Scharf, of Washington,
D. c., at this time, addressed the
board for fifty-fve minutes, in the
matter of appeal from his expulsion
from the Order.
Voted, in the matter of certain
charges preferred by w. Gwynn Gar

TO GAH0NIzE PAssION|s1
Father Dominica Received Cardinal
Newman Into the Church.

Among the several processes of ca.
nonization introduced at Rome is that
of Father Dominica, the Passionist,
who, on memorable October morning
in 1845, received into the Church at
Littlemore, near Oxford, John Henry
Newman, the light, the life, the soul,
of the far-famed Oxford movement
and who was destined to so greatly
influence the course of religious
thought in the country of his birth
Father Dominica was described by the
great neophyte as "a simple, holy man.
but, withal, gifted with remarkable
powers" His career in England GOV.
cred only nine years-1840 to 1919
but his work was of an enduring
character, and he died Of cholera
martyr to duty ON the platform of a
railway station, whittier he had gone
on a mission of mercy. He was also a
philosopher of profound attainments
and was the author of numerous
treatises In moral and mystical
theology. He had been called "a re-
builder of the fallen temple OF the
Church In England"

OF st. Boniface, held at the Arch
bishops residence last month, 1t was
decided to 60 on with the work and a
committee was appointed to solicit
subscriptions from those who desire
to see the name and memory of this
great Catholic explorer perpetuated in
some enduring form. The monument
will be erected in st. Boniface, the
Oldest town In Western Canada.
The Northwest Review commenting
on this announcement says: LA
Verendrye belongs to that class of
hardy explorers who flourished in the
latter part of the seventeenth and the
early part of the eighteenth centuries.
These great discoverers were ami
mated by two great ideas, first; to en-
large the possessions of their king
and secondly to evangelize the wild
Indians of the country. As a rule on
their expeditions they were always
accompanied by a black robe whose
mission it was to minister to the mem
bers Of the party and to bring the
joyful tidings of the gospel to the new
Indian tribes which were discovered
on the way. The erection OF monu-
ment to La Verendrye must be ma
tional enterprise because his discover
les were of national importance. Had
it not been for his great daring, his
spirit of enterprise and his skill in
the management of the Indian tribes
of the country, the west might have
remained many more years undiscov-
cred and deprived of the benefits of
civilization.
To accomplish the discovery Of the
West La Verendrye spared neither
money nor personal sacrifices. He was
not even deferred in his task by the
death of his son who was massacred
on the Lake of the Woods by band
Of Sioux Indians. He seemed even to
have derived greater energy from this
sad occurance.
Historians, both French and English,
Catholic and Protestant, have been
unanimous In praising the high quail.
ties of heart and mind of La Verendrye
and all have paid him the tribute OF
gratitude for his great discoveries.

CANADIAN L|TERATEUR DEAD
Sir James MACPHERSON Le Moine Dies
at Quebec-Knighted for Services
TO Literature.

On the 5th of February, says the
New World, one OF the most distin-
guished and beloved of Canadian lit
orators passed away at Quebec in the
person of Sir James MACPHERSON lie
Moine. At the time of his death Sir
James had reached the advanced age
OF eighty-seven. The deceased was
descended from well known Norman
family that had settled at Quebec In
1866. On his mothers side he was of
United Empire Loya1ist stock. Sir
James was an active and honored
member of the Royal Society of Can
ada and President for many years of
the Quebec Historical Society. He liz
practically the last Of the venerable
group OF writer's represented in Can
adian letters by Heavysege Kirby
Chauveau and Prof. Goldwin Smith.
His constant services to Canadian lit
erature cannot be over-estimated. To
him Sir Gilbert Parker liz indebted for
the historical facts out of which "The
Seats of the Mighty" was woven. The
writer remembers the charming per-
sonality of Sir James when he once
visited him I'm his hospitable and his
toric home at "SpencerWood" near
Quebec. For his distinguished serv.
ices to Canadian letters the late Queen
Victoria created Sir James Knight
ON the occasion or her Diamond Jubi.

LOUISIANA LEPER HOME
Supported by the State and in Charge
Of the Sisters Of Charity-Sixty
Inmates.

The Louisiana State Lepers' Home
is maintained by the State, assisted by
charitable offerings made through the
Lepers' Association, composed oi
Catholic ladies and gentlemen.
1t was established in it's present
location at Indian Camp, near White
Castle, on the Mississippi, in 1892
shortly after the terrible expose made
by the New Orleans Picayune of the
treatment of the lepers confined in
the old Lepers' Home in Hagan ave
nue., New Orleans. Through the senti
ment aroused by the Picayune, a
State Board was created and the inter.
est of the late lamented Archbishop
Janssens enlisted in having the Sisters
of Charity of st. Vincent de Paul as.
sumo charge of the lepers. Archbishop
Janssens applied to the Mother House
in the United States at Emmitssburg
and accordingly Sister Beatrice and
nine Sisters of Charity, among others
Sisters Annie and Thomas, from New
Orleans, went to the camp to care for
the lepers.
The great good effected by the Sis.
ters was soon evident in the improve
ment of conditions at the home, the
inmates Of which came mostly from
other parts. Sister Beatrice died from
heart disease some ten years ago, and
Sister Benedicta became superioress
of the heroic band.
Archbishop Blenk goes to the home
once year to visit the 1epers and
administer confirmation when neces.
rsary. Many of the priests of New
Orleans manifest their deep interest
by visiting the home and cheering the
inmates. Father keenan, is Chaplain
of the Home.
Through the efforts of the Lepers
Association beautiful stone chapel
was erected some eight years ago al
the home, and the rooms of inmates
cozily fitted up, SO that it is a home
indeed, of kindness, unselishness
faith and charity. The location II
ideal, being one of the beautiful OLD
plantations, of ante-bellum days; moth
ing is left undone that may contribute
to the happiness or comfort OF the
inmates, whose condition physically
and spiritually is marked since the
advent of the Sisters.

The DIscOTERER OF
WESTERN CANADA
The Historical Society OF 90. Boniface
Will Erect a Monument to Sieur
de In verendyre, a Catholic Ex-
plorer OF the Eighteenth Century.

As early as 1877 movement was
set on foot by the late Archbishop
Tache OF st. Boniface, Man., to erect q
suitable monument to the Sieur de la
Verendyre, who was the first to cross
the plains of Western Canada and
make known It's vast extent to his
countrymen. A site was finally Sc
lected i'm st. Boniface opposite the old
Provencher Academy and, on June "a,
1886 the Archbishop blessed the
blocks OF granite destined to form the
foundation OF the proposed monument.
Since that time, however, no further
steps have been taken towards the
carrying out OF this worthy project.
AT meeting OF the Historical Society
