SUES EDISONIA COMPANY
FOR SECURING CREDIT

Chester MacLaren Freeman yester-
day brought suit for $500 against the
Edisonia Company of this city in the
East Orange District Court. claiming
the company owed him this figure
for a retainer when he was engaged
as financial agent to secure credit of
$780, 900 from the banks, and ten per
cent. on the amount secured monthly.
The defense of the company was that
it had not secured the credit, it being
obtained elsewhere, and for this rea-
son had not fulfilled his contract.
Judge Mountain asked the attorneys
on both sides to submit briefs.

The Mass in Penal Times.

1t is remarkable historical fact that
for 222 years the Holy Sacrifice of the
Mass was forbidden by law in Ireland,
and it is an equally remarkable fact
that during that long period of perse-
cution the Holy Sacrifice never ceased
to be offered up in every part of the
land, writes the Rev. Father Ambrose
Coleman o. p. in the Austral Light
No other country in the world can
point to such a glorious record. In
other countries. it Is true, penal legis-
lation against the Mass existed for an
equally long period but with the inn
portant difference that in some of
them, such as Norway and Sweden,
the faith was completely stamped out

Climate of Ireland.

The British Meteorological Office has
issued a table showing how last year
compares with other years as regards
heat and sunshine.
In ireland the temperature ranged
from 81 degrees, the lowest recorded
in the North, to IS, the highest re-
corded in the South. This confirms
the general impression that the Irish
climate is more equable, and less given
to extremes of temperature than that
of Great Britain.
The average temperature day and
night in Ireland last year was one and
a half degrees in the North and three
degrees in the South higher than the
normal summer temperature.
During the 10 weeks of summer Ire
land had forty-four days on which
rain fell.

Present Day Nervousness.

In a recent issue of the bulletin of
Iowa State Institutions Dr. Francis A.
Ely contributes an intelligent and USE
full article. Discussing the difference
between the nervous constitution Of
the modern inhabitants of the cities
and that OF our "nerveless'' forefathers
he enumerates a list of changes in con-
ditions of today and yesterday.
The causes he disccrns are:
1. Non-observance of one day in
seven for rest.
2. Light regard for marriage VOW.
g. The entrance of woman into the
world of business.
4. Intensive educational methods.
5. The massing of humanity in our
large cities.
6. Modern inventions for the facil-
itation of communication and rapid
transit.
Z. Over organization.

Tho Pope's Relatives,

The three sisters Of Pope Plus X,
Maria, Rosa and Anna Sarto. have
never aspired to be anything but the
simple peasant women they were by
birth, and through all the successive
promotions of their brother Giuseppe
from Parish Priest to Bishop, to Car
dinal and finally to Pope. their SIM
plicity of thought and living remained
unchanged. Not until their brother
was made a Cardinal did they consent
to give up their peasant dress and
even now, when they are the sisters
Of the Pope. they wear nothing on
their heads when they so abroad but
the veil of the peasant woman.
The mother of the Sarto Sisters was
Marguerite Samson, the daughter of a
peasant of the province of Treviso.
Their father held petty municipal
Office in the village of Riese. In a
very small, vine covered cottage in
Riese, Giuseppe, another son Angelo,
and four daughters were born, and UNI

CHURCH AND SOCIETY
IndissoIubiIity Of NuptiaI Tie the Basis
of Morality.

'''rhc Catholic church has purified
society in it's very fountain--which is
| the marriage-bond. She has invari-
ably proclaimed the unity and sanctity
and indissolubility of the nuptial tic,
saying with her Founder: What God
hath Joined together, let no man put
asunder.'
"The Catholic religion has proclaim-
cd the sanctity of human life, as soon
as the body is animated by the vital
spark. lnfanticide was a dark stain
on Pagan Notwithstanding sanction
ed, and even sometimes cnjoined by
such eminent philosophers as Plato
and Aristotle, Scion and Lycurgus.
"There is no phase of human mis-
provide some remedy or alienation.
No distinction is made either of per-
son, nationality, color or creed, for
true charity embraces all.
"The Catholic Church has ever ex-
erted her influence toward the mitiga-
ton and abolition of human slavery.
From the earliest ages, Christianity
has been the unvarying friend and
| advocate of the bondman. Before the
time of Christ slavery was universal
in civilized as we'll as barbarous coun-
tries and the Apostles were every
| where confronted by the children of
oppression. No Christian country con-
tains today a solitary slave.
FINALLY, the Catholic church has
always been the staunch unwavering
| friend of the sons of toll. Before the
coming Of Christ manual and even
mechanical work was regarded as SER
vile by the freemen of Pagan Rome
and was consequently relegated to the
slave.
"These. then, are some of the bless
ings which the Catholic Church has
conferred upon society. The benef1-
cent movements inaugurated by her.
the phianthropic institutions which
she has founded. the innumerable
works of Christian benevolence which
she originated, have all stimulated
and encouraged other Christian de-
nominations in their noble efforts for
the moral and social regeneration OF
mankind" Gibbons.

as young man Pope Plus was for a
time curate. Another became the wife

Angelo, the Popes only brother, was

salary of $50 year.

A striking commentary on his tab

The Dead Who Died for ireland.

The dead who fought for Ireland,
And gloried in the fight;
The dead who died for Ireland,
Are with us day and night.
Their hands are stretched out to us,
Their tears rain down a flood,
Beseeching us to hear them
And late avenge their blood;
The dead who died for Ireland
Cry out, Avenge our blood!
The dead who died for Ireland
Appeal to us to make
The woes of their green shetland
Known earth-wide for their sake;
Reveal their ancient glory,
Her heroes hopes and songs,
And tell the world the story
OF her unpitied wrongs
Cry to the world the story
OF her undying wrongs.
The dead who died for Ireland
Implore for all their race:
60 forward to the higher land
And win the noblest place!
Renew her ancient glory,
Uplift her quenchless light
March on with deathless courage,
Unconquered hope-and fight"
The dead who died for Ireland
Speak thus to us tonight.

Mr.. Dillon's Speech.

We live in days when men are trav-
cling through the world with the OBJ
iect Of representing Ireland as a coun-
try inhabited by mixture of idiots,
of criminals, and of slaves, and it is
:. time of pessimis1n, the greatest that
recollect in my lifetime, or have read
of. And, therefore, it is with peculiar
pleasure that we have listened to the
auditors address. 1t was an eloquent
address, and, what was far better than
eloquence, it was full of thought and
extremely interesting. He spoke of
the land question, and two things
which he said about that long peren-
NAL trouble in Ireland struck me as
particularly interesting and true. First
of all, he said that in his judgment we
are never to have an end Of the land
question, that it never would be set
tied. I came to that conclusion TWEEN
5fty-five years ago.
The Auditor spoke of Irish history
saying he was in some matters her
aetic. So am in some matter her.
edo. value Irish history above any
other Irish study. And when speak
