endeavored to initiate her by sancti-
flying her illness. 1t often happened
that the poor people came to recon-
mend to her a sick member of their
family. In such cases she exhorted
them to have confidence in God from
whom she asked the favor of taking
unto herself the disease from which
they suffered. AS a result, the patient
was cured, but Sister Benedetta be-
came afflicted by the very ailment
from which the other had been re-
lieved. So it happened that without
any apparent natural cause she suf-
fered from many diseases.
The whole of Viterbo were cogni-
zant of these events and at her death
the people acquitted themselves of a
debt of gratitude to the holy Sister
by giving her magnificent funeral.
During her life she foretold many
events of which she could have no
natural knowledge, such as the as
sassination of King Humbert of Italy
and the death of the late Bishop of
Viterbo. During the last years of her
life people came to ask for her pray
ers not only from Viterbo but from
Rome and foreign countries. Testi-
monies are already being gathered
which may be used in the process of
her Identification.

TRUE BILLS FOUND BY GRAND
JURY IN MEGoNIGAL-STAGE
EPISODE.

Charles Megonigal and Clarence H.
Stage, of Philadelphia, Pa, were in
dicted by the grand jury recently
on charges of libel and conspiracy to
print and circulate what purported to
the oath taken by candidates for
the fourth degree of the Knights of
Columbus. Megonigal was indicted on
four bills and Stage on two.
The indictments set forth that the
papers alleged to have been cirulated
constituted "a malicious, false, bias
phemous and indecent libel" directed
against the Knights of Columbus as a
corporation, and against James A.
Flaherty, Phillip A. Hart and Charles
B. Dowds as members of the fourth
degree of the organization.
Copies of the circulars have been in
corporated in the bills of Indictment
and have been declared by members
of the Knights Of Columbus to be IAN
outrageous tissue of falsehoods from
start to finish"

THE SAINT OF V|TERBO
A BELGIAN PAPER GIVES AN Ac-
COUNT OF THE LIFE AND
DEATH OF A HOLY RELIGIOUS
WHO HAD SUFFERED FOR
FIFTY YEARS.

In recent issue we made reference
to the death of sanity nun, Sister
Maria Benedetta Frey, who died at
Viterbo, Italy, few weeks ago after
an excruciating illness of more than
fifty years which she bore with re-
markable resignation. For many
years before her death she enjoyed a
great reputation for sanctity.
1t may be of interest to our readers
to have more detailed account of the
life of this sanity Sister as we find
1t recorded in the pages of the
Patriotic" the wellknown Belgian
Catholic daily, which has circulation
of over two hundred thousand
The burial of Sister Benedetta in
this small medieval city, says the vi
terbo correspondent of the "Patriote, .
was an event of unusual Importance
Three Bishops, many mitred Abbots
and an immense concourse of the
faithful followed the hearse, and the
Catholic societies of the city sent
delegations bearing banners. White
flowers rained from all the windows
along the route followed by the funeral
procession. And all these tokens of
loving generation were given to a
humble religious who had not left
her convent for fifty years.
The people of Viterbo honored Sis
ter Benedetta as saint. In 1886 she
was born in Rome Of well-to-do
parents, and at twenty years of age
entered the convent after having re-
fused the hand of Roman baron. In
1861 she began to suffer with an afflic-
ton of the spinal cord and the inter
vening fifty-two years we're spent
nailed to her sick bed. The pains she
suffered we're excruciating, but she
bore them with unfaltering patience
In the convent she soon began to be
venerated as a saint and little by lit
tie her fame penetrated to the outer
world. AS soon as her heroic virtues
became known stream of afflicted
and sick people flowed daily into her
room to request her prayers. She re-
ceived them all with the greatest hui
mility, gave them advice and prom
ised them her help.
She had a special devotion to the
Blessed Ludwina of Schiedam and she

MUST Be REARED A CATHOLIC.

Kansas City, Mo-, has witnessed the
conclusion of prolonged efforts to
change a child's religion. A boy of
thirteen, whose mother was a Protes-
tant, but whose father professed the
Catholic faith, being left an orphan,
was claimed by the mothers parents.
These people intended to bring him
up non-Catholic, to the great dismay
of his fathers family. Judge e. Bird
ruled in the circuit court that the boy
should be given to his fathers rela-
tons and brought up a Catholic, as
the evidence showed that his mother
had been married in the Catholic
Church, and had made the usual prom
ises as to the faith of the children.
that the boy was baptized Catholic
and had been brought up as such by
his parents.

publicly identify himself with the

the facts of his case before the Apos-

the Freemasons are regarded as more
inimical to Catholics than the Odd
Fellows.

Agricultural Depart
nent CompEinented

At the close of the Corn Show
recently held in Georgetown, Col.
r. &. Houston said that as one
fl lom Sussex county and one inter
ested i'll farming, Il think that
Sussex county owes vote Of
thanks and a debt of gratitude to
the Delaware Experiment Station.
1t is working in season and out Of
season and its advice is always to
be had and [ think Sussex county
in general and the farmers here
could get more out Of it. DR.. Hay
ward, Prof. Grantham and the
other officials Of organization are a
benefit to the State. We should ap-
Ipreciate them more and call on
them more frequently from Sus-
sex county.
- | move that a rising vote of
thanks be extended to the Expert
ment Station for all that they
have done for the Agriculture of
the State -
Mr.. Barker, in seconding the mo-
ton, said the way to get the benefit
Of the Experiment Station is to do
exactly as Mr.. Houston says he
does,-call upon it frequently. That
is the way to get there. Get right
close to the Station staff. Get close
to the Agronomist and Horticult-
urist and you will find these men
are alright.
Mr.. Marvel, before putting the
motion, said: Il have been in
touch with the Experiment Station
for four or five years and have been
there and some of it's staff has been
down here. They have given me
all that | have asked Of them and
more than / could expect Of them
has always been done. They are
always ready and willing to give u:
anything that we want to know
All in favor of the motion please
rise
The motion was passed unani

laughter at the dismay and excite
ment that prevailed in the home of
two maiden aunts. over the broken
burglar alarm.
The part of the mischievous
niece, on a vacation from boarding
school, was cleveriy portrayed by
Miss Dora Law, while Miss Anna
Willis as Bridget and Misses Anna
GaIIaher and Frances Warren as
the aunts, made the situation rea-
listic.
Between the Acts," three-act

his old Uncle Meander. The parts
were portrayed with exceptional
cleyerness by Misses Katharine
Bowen, Anna Willis, Mrs. NJ. Jane

Post Office Receipts Heavy

Those frcQuenting the Post Office
during the Last few days have been
surprised at the enormous amount
of mail being handled. Every mail
during the past week has brought
loads Of packages looking suspic-
iously Christmas-like Not only
have the incoming mails been large
but the outgoing have been per-
haps the heaviest ever seen at the
local office. Inquiry was made at
the Office but the clerks were un-
able to give any definite figures. 1t
is estimated, however, that twenty
five large pouches were sent out on
Monday of this week.
While the express companies
here seem to be doing a thriving
business, it is known that the
Christmas receipts by parcel post
have caused a big decrease in the
business.
