PROGRESS OF THE NEGRO IN
THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.

More Negro saints. The church has
already raised to her affairs Saint
Benedict, the Moor, under whose in
vocation a church has long stood in
New York City, and Blessed Martin
PORES, a South American, son
of Spanish father and Negro
mother.
The qualification cause of % ma
tive black men, martyred few years
ago in the Nyanza, is now being
opened at Rome. Most of these were
converts of Cardinal Lavieerie's
White Fathers, and were baptized on
ly in the sos
Some had previously been Prostes-
tants; others, Mohammendan5. At
the test they met death as bravely on
the hill of Kampia, and torments as
frightful at those Of the martyrs of
the Coliseum in Pagan, Rome.
In the matter of the Negro mar
tyrs, their paryers must be helping
the spread of the faith amid their
race in America, for New York has
now it's second church for them. and
a house of the Sisters of the Blessed
Sacrament-Mother Katherine Drex-
els order, founded exclusively for the
service of the Negroes and 1ndians-
has been opened in this city.
