THE CHURCH IN CHINA.

The work of the Catholic Church in
China is the subject. of a recent lucid
and exceptionally well-informed ar
ticle by Father de la Ser Were, S. j.
His article is based almost exclusive
ly on details furnished by the i'm
portant vicariate of Kiangnan, which
has Shanghai as it's principal city.
During the year 1909-10, he traversed
the province making inquiries He
points out that now there are few
Catholics in the mandarin classes,
that while many. are successfully en-
gagged in commerce and industry, most
are outside the ranks of the affluent,
and offer an example of morality and
fervor which compares favorably
with the most fervent of our ancient
Christian countries. The Catholic
population is made up of two distinct
elements, two-thirds being descend
ants of the 18th and 18th century con-
verts, who, though piously and almost
lavishly charitable, show no spirit of
propagandism. The other element con-
sists of new converts from paganism
the children rescued by the mission
orphanages and the adult converts
For many years this conquest Of the
adult mind went on with discouraging
slowness, but during the last twenty
years progress has been accelerated,
and is now said to be most crafty
ing" showing an increase of 657, 800.
Monsignor de Guebriantt, Vicar Apos-
tolic Of Kientchang, is quoted as fol
lows: "The annual increase in the
number of Catholics has for several
years past exceeded $4,000. Among
the causes to which this gratifying
progress is attributed, are the blood
outpoured by Chinese Christians dur.
ing the Boxer rebellion, the enamel.
patton of mind brought about by the
result of the war with Japan, and the
influence of Catholic charitable insti.
tutions. The number of conversions
is certainly not helped by any ease OF
admission into the Church; the con.
verts in the Vicariate are put through
long course of instruction and trial
Father de la Serviere also considers

ment, and several have accepted high
positions under the new government
Whether there will be any improve
ment on the situation as it existed un-
der the Manchu empire it is, of
course, difficult to say what is GER
tain," says the writer, ''is that the
chiefs of the new republic are loud
in proclaiming their firm intention to
maintain absolute religious liberty,
and to remain on the best possible
terms with the Christian nations.
They have, up to now, been at real
pains to safeguard the lives and prop
erty of Catholic missionaries, and if
many of the latter have been molested
and plundered, it has been by bands
of brigands and deserters over whom
the authorities at Marking have not

fication for doing neither. This does
not exempt us from doing penance in
some form and the easiest way and
one of the most efficacious is to assist
in some charitable work. If we are
rich, we are bound to give some share
of our wealth to the poor. If we are
poor, all we can do is to pray for our
selves, or our friends, or for the con-
version of our less favored brethren
outside the fold.
One of the greatest charitable works
of today is to pray for the conversion
of the poor colored race in America
and to give generously of the wealth
that God has blessed us with, towards
this end On the sixth floor of the
Metropolitan Building, 1 Madison Ave
nue., New York City, the Catholic
Board for Mission Work among the
Colored People" has it's Office to help
carry on the work on systematic
scale. The Rev. John E. Burke is the
Director General of this glorious cam
paign, which is helping to build
churches and schools all over the
country for the conversion of the
Negro race.
BY sending a subscription of one
dollar or more, according to your
means to help on this great work, a
blessing must fall on the giver, for
has not Our Divine Lord said, that the
smallest thing done in His name will
be rewarded. What better example of
this could there be than in the prayers
of the little colored children who will
attend the mission schools. The child
rem will grow up in the knowledge of
Gods love for them and will extend
this knowledge to others so that Cath
olicism will become the one great fac
tor in solving the Negro problem by
making the Negroes good Catholics
and citizens.

How St. Joseph was kept
out Of ii.

The September sun was setting
over Bundoran; and, in the purple
and golden reflections from its fast
fading glory, Donegal Bay shone like
a sheet of magic water destined to
vanish as dream when the spell was
broken, and the charm that held the
spectator enraptured dissolved by the
fitting of the Fairy King and the sink
ing of his dazzling train beneath the
waves. Small boats that dotted the
sparkling bay were steering home
ward, their white sails swelling in the
rising breeze; and lights were begin
ming to twinkle in the sparsely scat
tered cabins that lay along the coast.
In one of the nearest of these, two
women were seated in front of a wide
chimney, where the heaped-up turf
glowed cheerily, casting fantastic shad-
ows on the whitewashed walls, and on
the oaken dresser where the house
hold crockery was displayed to the
best advantage. The elder, who, not
withstanding the uncertain light, had
not laid aside the fishing net which
she was mending, was Mrs. Malone, a
recently married bride and the mis-
tress of the house. Her companion
was a visitor, Kitty Dunno, her dear
est friend and most intimate crony.
Just now the usually smiling Kitty

GATHERING A HARVEST.
What Your Prayers are Helping to Do
and Your Pennies, Dimes and Dol
lars.

The Rev. A. Buch, Lazarist, of Ming
pc, China, writes in these encourag-
ing terms:
Il take great pleasure in announc-
ing that at this season we are begin
ing to gather the harvest which the
generosity of American and European
benefactors made possible. They
furnished the good seed, we cast it
into the ground and are now reaping
the reward.
IN one place we are having bap-
tisms in groups of twenty, thirty or
forty every month. We look forward
to baptizing even fifty the next time,
all adults.
From another station comes the
news that there are $50 persons ready
to receive the sacrament.
MANY of our missionaries are car
rying on their work in the district
ravaged by the cyclone of last August
No need to describe again the condi
ton of the country, or the great
misery of the people. We must speak
once more however, of our deep graft
tude to the National Office of the So
ciety for the Propagation of the Faith
for the efforts made to relieve US in
that trying hour"

NATIVE CHINESE PRIEST HOPE
Full FOR HIS MISSION.

During the Chinese Revolution, FIR.
John Baptist Wong, native Chinese
priest, of Kwang- tung, Vicariate, was
forced to leave his mission at Tsung-
ia and remain in Canton until the
middle of last July. "The story of
the outrages and crimes perpetrated
during the Revolution in my own
district" he writes in recent COM
munication, ito say nothing of what
happened elsewhere, is almost incred-
ible. Such shedding of innocent
blood; such cruel fortunes; such
plumber; such blocking of travel on
land and sea!
my Christians we're not only de-
spoiled of all their possessions by
the insurgents, but were forced by
every possible means to abandon their
faith and pledge allegiance to Ma
sonic societies. If they resisted, every
thing they had was snatched from
them; their houses we're burned and
they were banished and forbidden to
return to their homes.
about the middle of July, the pre-
feet appointed by the new regime
anxious to win the favor of my
Christians, requested me to return
to my mission and provided me with
a safe conduct for my journey. Now
that have been given promise Of
protection and restitution, I trust that
henceforth I shall be able to remain
here with those entrusted to my care
in peace and tranquility.

A coREAN MARTYR.

The acts of the martyrs of Corea
who suffered for their faith in the
early decades of the nineteenth CEN
fury read like a page from the rec
ords of Apostolic days in pagan Rome.
Augustine Y was man of position
who lost his worldly goods in the
prosecutions. In March, 1889, he was
cast into prison with his family. Upon
his refusal to betray his fellow Chris
tians, he was severely beaten and sent
to the higher court. The judge, moved
with pity for his wife and family, en-
deavored by threats and promises to
shake his resolution. Say but one
word and you will free yourself, your
wife and your children and recover
your property"
The answer of Augustine was
worthy of an apostle: "My faith is
dearer to me than all l have in the
world. 1 would lose everything rather
than renounce it." He was submitted
again to the torture and the judge
then said to him: Come now, though
you set no value upon your own life,
will you not have pity upon your wife
and children?"
II love my wife and my children,
and for that very reason will not
give them an example of weakness, =
was Augustine's reply
Let him be beaten till he dfes!
exclaimed the Judge in a passion.
The flesh fell in Jumps from the
body of the martyr; his face, his cloth
ing, the whole of his body were COW
cred with blood so that the spectators
turned away their heads in horror.
His sentence was delivered and car
ried into execution on the oath day OF
May, 1889. He was beheaded at the
age of fifty-three.
His wife, Barbara, remained IN
prison for six months. Unmoved by
the tortures inflicted upon her she
offered her sufferings up as sacrifice
to God. At the age of forty-six she
too, was beheaded.
Their daughter, Agatha, remained
in prison ten months longer. Hunger
cold, sickness and the horrors of her
dungeon were varied by the torture
She received three hundred blows
with a stick and ninety with a board
but her constancy was mistaken. She
was strangled in prison when she was
fifteen years old.
