INTENTION FOR OCTOBER.

During the month of October
the members of the League of the
Sacred Heart are asked to offer
their prayers and good works for
the success of the Church in her
battle against Freemasonry. The
League leafet puts forth the fol
lowing points for consideration in
connection with this intention:
In offering to the associates of
the League of the Sacred Heart,
and thereby to the entire Catholic
world, the battle against Freema-
sorry as the primal intention of
their prayers and practices for
October, Pope Plus K is in unison
with all his predecessors from
Clement XII in 1873 to Leo XIII
in 1890, who condemned Freema-
sonry as anti-Catholic, anti Chris
tian and immoral, and pronounced
accommodation against Catho-
lies who should enter it.
"This alone is proof sufficient
that Masonry is to be avoided and
combatted as thing essentially
evil; yet it has cunningly per-
suaded many that it's object is
merely social and fraternal, and a
large number Of outer Masons in
English-speaking countries are
kept ignorant Of it's real designs.
"From the official documents
and standard works on the subject
it is proved beyond doubt that
illuminated Masonry, an elabor-
ate hierarchical system graded
with consummate craft on eccles-
iastical and religious models and
in blasphemous imitation of sacra-
mental rites, was cunningly de-
vised to attain, through concerted
and secret interference in the gov
eminent of nations and even of
the Church, the grand Masonic de-
sign of supplanting existing re-
ligion and government by a nat
ural religion and a universal de-
mocracy which Masonry alone
would plant and guide and gov
ern.
''It is, therefore, clear that the
hostility of Masonry is call to
battle for all Christians, and espe-
cially for those who have pledged
themselves to the Heart of Christ
in reparation and service. !"

PATRICK FORD.

The death Of Patrick Ford
founder and editor Of the Irish
World,' removes from the field
of Catholic journalism one of its
most prominent figures. For
forty-three years, he moulded the
editorial policy of the Irish
World,' and made it the fore
most exponent of Irish ideals and
the strongest advocate Of Irish in
terests on this side of the Atlantic.
By voice and pen he upheld Ire
land in her struggle against Eng
lish misrule, and was instrumental
in sending large sums of money to
the leaders of the Irish party to
enable them to carry on the cam
paign for Home Rule. Had he lived
another year he would, no doubt,
have witnessed the triumph Of the
cause for which he sacrificed him
self unreservedly; but like many
another leader of cause that Ill
timately triumphs he was not per
mitted to see the promised land
During the past half century
Ireland has had no truer or more
devoted friend in America than
Patrick Ford. He considered nc
movement unworthy of his sup.
port that enshrined any prospect
Of being instrumental in promot-
ing the good of Ireland. He was q
stanch Catholic and a true Ameri
can, and deserves an honored
place on the bead roll of Irish ex.
lies who, in their adopted land
strove to advance the interests OF
the Emerald Isle in her struggle
for a larger measure of political
freedom and national life.

Herefrom are deduced those rela-
lions which subsist between ruled and
rulers. With a good State, a we'll
ruled Church cannot fail to work in
harmony, both being perfect and in
dependent societies; and hence the
need for both to exercise those re-
strictions on themselves, on one an
other, and on their individual subjects
which shall ensure the true liberty
which consists in allowing not each to
do as he likes, but in allowing all to
develop themselves into what human
nature tends to, at it's best. Thus
Catholics have gained the WatchWord
Christian Democracy" which, right
ly understood, ensures the observance
of distributive justice to all alike, and
in particular towards those least able
to help themselves.

State The whole base of Leo's re-
construction is twofold "a Man is

There will never be pure human ma
ture triumphant. Economic legislation
bandages the sore, but does not heal
it. The wise intervention of the civil
power is most important, but only to
allow the principles of the Gospel
their full liberty Force, Leo taught,
avails little; merely philosophic
base for Mans Brotherhood scarcely
avails more.
Of specific reforms there were three
especially dear to Leo, namely, Small
Holdings, Factory Legislation, and
Workmen's Guilds. From the very
beginning of his pontificate, Leo fore
saw and urged what, at the end of the
nineteenth century, Europe and Amer
lea recognized as their leading indus
trial feature, viz, the vast develop
ment of all kinds of associations, SO
that it is hardly an eXaggeration to
speak of the era of competition hav.
ing passed, and the era of combination
come in it's stead.

BENEDICTINEs
WILL HAVE THEIR FORMER SU-
PERIoRs AFTER A YEARS
PROBATION.

The tenderness wherewith Rome
treats the exiles who find her and
offer her their all, is well demon
strated by the good news which has
reached the communities of Galley
and Milford Haven, who so recently
made their peace with the Church. 1t
is that by special permission of the
Holy See, Galley is to be raised to
the rank of a Benedictine Abbey with
a novitiate. 1t has been placed, for
ten years, under the Jurisdiction Of
the Bishop of Menevia, in whose do
cese 1t stands. For the present Dom
John Chapman and Dom Bede Camm
will act as superior and novice master
respectively, but at the end of a year
the Sovereign Pontiff is going to send
back to the community their old found
er as the first Abbot of the new Abbey.
Dom Aelred Carlyle is studying at
Maredsous, in Belgium, at present. At
the close of twelve months he is to be
permitted not only to profess himself
a son of st. Benedict, but to be or
dained priest and economically blessed
as Abbot of Galley.
Similar good news has reached the
Sisters of Milford Haven. For year
they are placed under the guidance of
the Prioress of SHAMROCK Abbey, after
which they win be reconfided to the
spiritual care of Sister Scholastica,
who will then become their Abbess.
This generous trust completes the
happiness Of the new communities.

An aged merchant died in a
German city the other day and
left most of his estate to be divid-
ed between four Catholic papers
that he had read for forty or fifty
years. He claimed that the Faith
in Germany was rescued and pre-
served and the Church rendered
strong by the Catholic press and
that he felt like giving an exam
pie to other men of means to re
member the Catholic press.
The Indiana Catholic makes this
comment: eve suppose if he had
died in this country and left such
will there are some who would
want to contest the document on
the ground of insanity. But in
Germany they realize the value OF
a Catholic press and they conform
more closely to the admonition OF
the Holy Father on this subject. =

lean Catholic bequeathing any
thing to a Catholic paper? Who
will be the first to immortalize

AN ANGLOMANIAC.

Ambassador Page, the repre-
sentative of the United States at
the Court of st. James, is the lat
est type of Anglomaniac which
this country has produced. He
took advantage Of the first oppor-
tunity offered him after his arrival
in England to give expression to
his deep-rooted reverence for
everything English, and in his ut
terances went so far as to declare
that "the bond Of blood" between
England and the United States
virtually perpetuates English rule
on the American continent.
His first official appearance in
England was at the unwilling of a
monument to the Pilgrim Fathers
at Southampton. In the course of
the address which he delivered on
that occasion, he lauded the Pill
grim Fathers as the heralds of re-
ligious liberty in the New World.
According to him, the Pilgrim Fa-
theirs were not only "God-led
men, but COOLED Englishmen, !"
who linked together the destiny
of America and England and
established on this side of the At
lantic the right to worship God in
accordance with the dictates of
conscience "a privilege for which
they themselves struggled. He
concluded by declaring that Gin
spite of the great fusion of races
and Of the great contributions
which other nations have made to
the one hundred millions of peo-
pie across the sea, and to her in
calculable wealth, the United
States is yet "English-led and
English-ruled.
If Ambassador Page thought
that he voiced the sentiments of
the American people, he proved
himself an unworthy representa-
tive Of their interests at the Eng
lish capital. For a public official
of his supposed attainments, he
showed himself deplorably ignor-
ant of the history of the Pilgrim
Fathers whom he praised for their
freedom from the faint Of relig-
ious intolerance. Nor did his bonn
bastic utterances sound well to
British ears. Many Of the Eng

CHILD LABOR
BISHOP KETTELER CALLED 1T A
FORM OF INDUSTRIOUS
CRUELTY.

In the course of an address, deliv-
cred at Offenbach, Germany, in 1869,
Bishop Ketteler said of child labor:
my own observations are in full
accord with the statements of Fritz
sche on the bad effect of factory labor
on children. | know right well what
arguments are brought forward to
even some who are well-disposed to
ward the working classes wish to see
child labor tolerated to a certain ex-
tent Children are in duty bound,
these men argue, to help their parents
in the labors of the house and the field
why debar them from the factory?
"These people forget that there is
a vast difference between work at
home and work in the factory. Fac
tory work quenches, as it were, the
family spirit of the child, and this is,
as we shall see presently, the greatest
danger that threatens the working
classes in our day. Moreover, it robs
the child of the time it should devote
to innocent, joyous recreation SO neces-
sary at this period of life. Lastly,
the factory undermines the bodily and
spiritual health of the child. I regard
child labor in factories as a monstrous
cruelty of our time, cruelty COM
mitted against the child by the spirit
of the age and the selfshness of par
ents. l look on it as slow poisoning
of the body and the soul of the child.
With the sacrifice of the joys of child
hood, with the sacrifice of health, with
the sacrifice of innocence, the child
is condemned to increase the profits
of the entrepeneur and oftentimes to
earn bread for parents whose disso-
lutte life has made them incapable of
doing so themselves. Hence rejoice
at every word spoken in favor of the
workingman's child. Religion in its
great love for children can not but
support the demand for the prohibit
ton of child labor in factories. You,
my dear workmen, can second this
demand most eficaciously by never
permitting your children under four
teen years of age in a factory"

MARRIAGE CASE RECALLED

The death of Prince Rospigliosi
in Rome last week recalls the de-
tails of a long-drawn-out marriage
case in which he figured as one of
the principals. For more than a
decade of years it occupied the
attention of the Roman Rota be-
fore it was definitely disposed of
about three years ago, when the
Pope confirmed the final decision
of the tribunal and forbade the
case to be re-opened.
In brief, the facts are as follows
Some years ago, Prince Rospig-
liosi, scion of one of the most
prominent families of the Roman
nobility, contracted a civil mar
riage with the divorced wife of
an American named Parkhurst,
who, prior to her marriage, was
Miss Reid, of New Orleans.
Miss Reid, who was a Catholic,
married Mr.. Parkhurst, a non
baptized Protestant, in Washing
ton, D. c., after a dispensation had
been obtained from the Archbish-
op of Baltimore by the officiating
clergyman, Father Chapelle, after
wards Archbishop of New Or
leans. Later on, Mrs. Parkhurst
obtained a divorce from her hus-
band and on visit to Italy met
and married Prince Rospigliosi, a
Catholic. As she was divorced
woman, her marriage was not rec
ognized by the Church, and she
was ostracised by the Catholic no
bility of Rome who refused to adj
nit her to their social circle. In
order to secure social recognition
and to have her marriage with
Prince Rospigliosi validated, she
sought to prove that her first mar
rage was invalid, owing to a
defect in the dispensation granted
bv the ecclesiastical authorities in
Baltimore. She maintained that
the dispensation was for a mixed
marriage. that is to say, mar
rage between a Catholic and a

baptized non-C Catholic, instead of
a dispensation from the impedi-
ment arising from a difference of
religion, which is required when
a Catholic marries a non-baptized
Protestant. On this plea the case
was brought before the Roman
tribunal for adjudication. Evi-
dence was submitted to prove
that the records of the Chancery
Office in Baltimore showed that
the proper dispensation had been
obtained, and, of course, that
settled the matter as far as the
Church was concerned. The first
marriage was valid and conse-
quently the divorced Mrs. Park
hurst was not free to contract
marriage with the Prince. This
was the final decision of the high
est ecclesiastical court in the
Church and so the matter was set
tied once and for all.
The records Of this case show
how careful the Catholic Church
is in weighing the evidence sub
mitted to it in a particular case
