QUALITY OF THE WORK OF OUR
MISSIONARIES IN. CHINA.

Sir Robert Hart, nom Catholic, who
spent over forty years of his life in
China as general director of the Posts
and Customs, and who is probably
better acquainted with the country and
its people than any other American, or
European, said a few years ago at a
Methodist meeting in England:
Although many of those present
may not agree with me, cannot omit,
on an occasion such as this, to refer to
the admirable work done by the
Roman Catholic missionaries, among
whom are to be found the most de-
voted and self-sacrificing of Christ's
followers. The Roman Catholic mis-
sionaries have done great work, both
in spreading the knowledge of one
God and one Saviour, and more espe-
cially in their self-sacrif1ce in the cause
of deserted children and afflicted
adults. Their organization as So
ciety is far ahead of any others, and
they are second to none in zeal and
self-sacrifice personally. One strong
point in their arrangements is in the
fact that there is never a break in
continuity, while there is perfect unity
in teaching and practice, and practical
sympathy with their people in both the
life of this world and the preparation
for eternity"

ANNIVERSARY OF FATHER
DoYLE'S DEATH.

The current number of The Mis-
sionary reminds us that Saturday,
August 9th, is the first anniversary of
the death of Reverend A. P. Doyle,
G. S. P; for it was on this date year
ago that he departed this life in San
Francisco, the city of his birth.
When the Catholic Missionary
Union was organized, Father Doyle
was chosen a member of the Board of
Trustees, and because of his peculiar
fitness, was placed in charge of the
financial affairs of the organization.
He also began the publication of The
Missionary, a magazine devoted to
the conversion of America, and the
cause of Christian Unity. He con-
tinued as it's editor until his death.
He it was who superintendent the
erection of the Apostolic Mission
House on the site generously pro
vided by the Trustees of the Catholic
University of America, and here as
Rector of the institution he spent the
last eight years of his life.
But Father Doyle was more than
merely the Rector of the Apostolic
Mission House-he was it's soul, it's
spirit, its very life. Year after year
he threw his tireless energy into the
work, making the Mission House
truly a normal school for the educa-
ton of priests in the holy art of con-
vert-making, it being the plan and
purpose of the Catholic Missionary
Union to establish in each and every
diocese in the country a band of well
trained missionary priests. No la
Dor was too great if only this might
be accomplished
Father Doyle's one hope was the
conversion of America, but he knew
that the task could not be accom-
plished without the assistance of
trained workers who could be called
specialists in this particular portion of
the Lords Vineyard. To the work of
training such men he gave himself I'M
reservedly for eight years, with an
enthusiasm characteristic of the man.
His favorite text was: "And other
sheep l have that are not of this fold:
Iu6u dlSO uluSL UIllSS uuu IuOy Snd1l
hear my voice, and there shall be one
fold and one Shepherd" (St John x,
16).
If there be any criticism to offer,
now that Father Doyle is gone, it is
this, that he worked too hard, and
thus shortened the years of his use
fitness. His support through it all
was the thought that he worked for
a generous Master" and he died just
as he wished, with his armor on. /"
With ST. Paul he could say: 81 have
fought good fight, have finished my
course, l have kept the faith" QI
Tim. w, y. CAS- for the rest" we
trust that ere this he has received his
crown of Justice" from the hand of
the "Just Judge"
Kind reader, we ask you to join us
in prayer for the repose of his soul,
on this his first anniversary.
Grant him eternal rest, o Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon
him!"

HER VICTORY.

full mind, out of the question, it's re-
freshing to meet such a woman-pur-
ity incarnate. She's the only kind of
woman that a man should marry
one that will ennoble him."
And Dora, poor, unhappy Droa! She
was tempted, once, twice, to call him
back. She fell into chair, and tossed
her aching head to and fro. She could
not make the sacrifice; it was too
great Did she care for the social
position such a marriage would offer
her? Yes; of the women who would
not, their name is by no means legion;
but what was even social position in
comparison with her great love? What
was wealth without him?
Then came her first violent tempta-
ton.
why should you not become his
wife?" said the tempter. You are
young, and you love each other; why
should both be unhappy? You will not
lose your soul by marrying him; you
can pray, and who that prays will be
lost. He is man, and loves you;
woman, when she is loved has great
influence over man; may you not con-
vert? What if you deny your faith for
time it will be but for time-and
go through a mont Catholic marriage
ceremony"
With these and like thoughts was
she tortured. The waves of tempta.
ton dashed about her soul and threat
ened to engulf it. Her love, her WON
ans nature, leagued themselves with
the evil one against her, and she fell
that the crisis had come, that she
must needs yield. She arose from
the chair, and turned to leave the
room. Yes, she would do it; she
would marry Austin Kemery; what q
desert life would be without him! Just
then she stopped. A food of grace
overwhelmed her soul.
A picture hung on the wall, a pic
ture of a thorn-crowned head, Ecce
Homo, a picture she loved. Great
beads of perspiration mingled with the
blood on the brow; the eyes, oh, what
sorrowful eyes! seemed to rebuke hel
because of her momentary weakness
