DEATH OF FATHER BURNS
REV. j. r. X. BURNS, PASTOR OF
THE CHURCH OF ST. Plus v,
CANNON FALLS, MINI, PASSES
AWAY IN PHILADELPHIA.
A Native of adelphia-Ordained
at ST. Paul Seminary in 1906
Former Pastor of Eden Valley and
Missions-Absent on Account of III
Health.

A telegram from Philadelphia last
week conveyed the sad announcement
of the death, in that city, of the Rev.
J. F. X. Burns, pastor of the Church
of ST. Plus V, Cannon Falls, Mimi,
who had been absent from his parish
for some months on account of i'll
health. The funeral services took
place last Monday in the Church of ST.
Joseph, Philadelphia.
Father Burns was born in Phila-
delphia on October 81, 1872. He made
his classical studies at st. Joseph's
College in that city and at the Jesuit
Novitiate, Frederick, Md. He studied
philosophy at Woodstock College,
Maryland, and theology at st. Paul
Seminary, where he was ordained on
June IL, 1906. After his ordination he
was assistant at the Cathedral and at
st. Mary's Church, st. Paul, whence
he was transferred to the pastorate
of Eden Valley and Manannah, where
he remained until last summer when
he became pastor of the Church of
st. Plus V at Cannon Falls in success
sion to the Rev. F. x. McDermott.
Owing to ill health he was forced to
give up active work. He spent some
months in California before going to
his native city where he succumbed
to the inroads of disease. He was a
devout priest and an earnest, jealous
pastor who spent himself unreserved-
ly for the welfare of those entrusted
to his care.

of Menevia proceeded to st. Brides
Abbey where the nuns had been max
ing preparations for their reception
into the Catholic fold, and where, to
the number of thirty-four, they made
their profession of faith in his pres
ence and were formally admitted into
the Church.
This event is unprecedented in the
history of the English Church and has
caused quite stir in Anglican circles.
No doubt, it will be the means of
turning the attention of many others
Romeward, and it is hoped that, in
the course of time, the remaining
members of these communities as well
as others will ask to follow the ex-
ample thus given them.
The only event of similar nature
in this country took place few years
ago when the religious community at
Graymoor, Garrison, N. Y, under the
direction of the present Reverend Paul
James Francis, S. A., was received
into the Church in a body and has
since preserved it's corporate unity as
a religious society. 1t is too soon to
discuss the future of the English
Benedictines who have just made
their submission; but the Bishops
and Abbots who have been consulted
in the matter are unanimous in the
hope that they will continue along
the same lines as at present and thus
preserve their corporate existence as
a Catholic religious order.

tenance the county has assumed, from
meeting together in some building or
room on the Poor Farm for the wor-
ship of God. In return for the care
given the body the State does not
exact the surrender of all care for the
soul. The Constitution is not vio-
lated if the county, at no expense to
itself, permits priest or minister or
layman to say a prayer at funeral,
or if a friendless pauper is allowed
a burial with the religious ceremony
usually observed by civilized nations
in the burying of the dead. The Con-
stitution does not absolutely prohibit
the exercise of religion, but, on the
contrary, provides that the free exer-
else and enjoyment of religious pro-
fession and worship, without discrim-
ination, shall be forever guaranteed.
No person can be required to attend
or support any ministry or place of
worship against his consent, and no
preference can be given by law to
any religious denomination or mode
of worship. This does not mean that

the unfortunate wards whom it has
collected at the Poor Farm. Food,
clothing, lodging, medical care and
attention, occupation and employ
ment, must all be provided for, and
the extent and manner of their pro-
vision is committed to the county
board, with whose discretion the court
will not interfere unless it is exer-
cised in manner clearly illegal. If the
county board deems it advisable to
establish a reading room or library for
the county's poor there is no constitu-
tional limitation to prohibit it. So a
lecture room might be established. If
charitably disposed persons wish to
hold religious services in the lecture
room or reading room occasionally or
regularly, without expense to the
county, no constitutional right is
interfered with. Religious privileges
are brought to the inmates, which may
be availed of by each according to
his own wishes. No one can be OBJ
liged to attend or to contribute, but
no one has right to insist that the
services shall not be held.

which gave to school directors the
right to grant the temporary use of
school houses, when not occupied by

Sunday schools, for evening schools
and for literary societies, and for such
other meetings as the directors may
deem proper, and the action of school
directors was sustained giving per-

ALCOHOLISM IN FRANCE
MANIFESTO SENT TO WOMEN OF
FRANCE SHOWS THAT THERE
IS A PUBLIC HOUSE FOR EVERY
sEvENTY-EIGHT PEOPLE.

France just at present is expert
encing what is called Campaign
Against Alcoholism" It is assuming
large proportions and is receiving an
earnest support from women writer's,
who appeal TO women. A few weeks
ago a great manifesto against al
coholism, which is not the same thing
as drunkenness, was addressed to the
women of France.
In recent number Of the Revue"
Madame Brada reinforces this appeal,
pointing to the results obtained by
the cooperation Of women in Sweden,
Norway, Finland, and Denmark. Swed-
en-, which some years ago possessed
a public house for each 100 inhabi-
tants, now possesses only one for each
5000, owing to the activity Of the
women in the referendum which
grants or refuses the communal IL
cense necessary.
France now possesses a public
house for each seventy-eight inhabi-
tants, condition Of affairs which
Madame Brada regards as exempli-
tying the dictum of Lord Rosebery
that IL the State does not regulate
drink, drink win regulate the State.
To avert the final evil is the aim OF
the appeal
