k@1SAM MISSION FIELDS:A

there are about 700, frequented by
close on $4,000 scholars. There are
about 1876 charitable institutions. OF
the 12,12O,000 inhabitants of the
German Protectorates, about 100000
are Catholic, while $4,000 more are
under instruction.
This increase in mission work
abroad goes hand in hand with cor
responding growth of missionary zeal
among the practical Catholics at
home. Several periodicals have
brought this noble spirit of missionary
enterprise under the notice of their
large circle of readers.
A quarter of century ago there
were few German missionaries in
heather lands; now Germany ranks
second as an evangelizer of the heath
en-, the first place being still held by
the Catholics of France. The old or
ders tackle the work guided by exper-
fence of centuries; the more recent
congregations trust to their youthful
and vigorous zeal The German mis-
sionary is now to be met with every
where, and in almost every religious
body His self-sacrificing spirit, his
common-sense methods, his talent for
organization, his patience and persev-
erance, together with his gift of let
ting himself down to the level of the
natives, so as to lift them up by educa-
ton, are appreciated everywhere.
The German Sisterhoods, too, in
ever-increasing measure, give valu.
able help. Those angels OF mercy gain
the hearts of the pagans, thus paving
the way for the work of the priest
while by means of schools and charit-
able works they give permanent sup
port to the labors of the missionary.
We see, then, how the peaceful
reign of Kaiser William II has proved
beneficial to Catholic missionary
work. Profting by peace at home
the missionary zeal of the German
Catholics has grown up like stately
tree, whose fruits bring joy to the
Fatherland as well as to the whole
Church.
the quiet and self-denying labors O
our missionaries abroad win for thu
Fatherland, missionary enthusiasm
has proved a blessing also to the cause
of religion at home. 1t has renewed
the faith in many heart and stirred
it up to new activity; it has kindleC
a spirit of self-sacrifice that has prov
ed highly beneficial to the Church il
other spheres of labor; it has given {
fresh impetus to the home missions
(the Society of St. Boniface), and tt
charitable works.
May German Catholics in increasing
numbers take more and more intores
in the great crusade for the spread O
Christ's kingdom. Never was it more
strikingly true than today that the
harvest is great while the laborers are
few.

Couldn't we shut them in--you and
II" whispered Priscilla.
Enough said!' the colonel ex-
claimed, under his breath. Then he
whistled softly, after which he called
Abner, the Farmland, and said quietly:
Bring Bob and come to the old cabin
near the cave at once" Then on his
swift PAGER he started after them,
with Priscilla riding lightly by his side.
Arriving at the cabin, by the light Of
his lantern the colonel scrubbed a
note to General Dix, i'm charge of the
patriot troops at Newfeld post, and,
putting Bob on his own fieet-footed
horse, hurried him off to deliver it.
The Tories, failing to find either the
colonel or the missing horse at the
Robinson home, left, threatening ven
geance both to him and Priscilla.
We'll take up the trail of the fugi-
tives after the powder is SAFE, said
Colonel Fry, as they passed the cabin
on the trot, ready to meet their tool
prompt to the minute. The next mo-
ment the traitor led the way into
the cave, followed by score of red
coats, and then the big iron door, once
a safeguard against Indian foes,
dropped with bang into place, it's
strong springlock snapped and the
raiders were prisoners, occupying the
identical place they had intended for
Colonel Robinson.
Leaving Abner and big Jim on guard,
the colonel took Priscilla back to the
care of his good wife, where, after
dressing the girls badly swollen arm,
the big-hearted woman put her to bed,
with instructions to shut her eyes and
go right off to sleep, like a baby"
Several hours later, after General
Dix, in charge of the captives, had
started on the march to Newfield, the
colonel came back home, chuckling
over the success of the plot. "Pris-
elias plot" he insisted For, if the
child hadn't suggested the trick, this
old head would never have figured out
such neat trap, nor how to spring
| it."

brave lassie," insisted the colonel's
wife. Just think of child of fifteen
riding six long miles in the face of
such a storm as was raging last night
for no other reason than to save your
life"
II think that was reason enough
for a hundred such rides, had they
been necessary" argued Priscilla.
"Just think what friend he has been
to both mother and me since father
left u.s."
We'll, you have certainly given me
back good measure, pressed down and
running over my Priscilla" returned
the colonel softly, "and everybody,

GERMANY AND FOREIGN MIS-
sIoNs.

The German people have been cele-
brating the silver jubilee OF the ruler
who, for quarter of century, has
guided the destinies of Germany in
troublous times. This quarter OF a
century has meant peace and all its
blessings. 1t has been time of great
national progress in economic and IN
tellectual spheres. Germany not only
maintains her place as a great power
among the nations of Europe, she has
become world-power, and has won
for herself a voice in the great ques-
tons of world politics. All of a sud-
den German commerce conquered the
world. At this present time Germany
owns the second merchant navy in
existence. A sixth part of the worlds
trade passes through her hands.
A thankful Fatherland lays before
Kaiser William a tribute of gratitude.
1t has been wisely resolved to give
this grateful feeling practical turn
by organizing national subscription
on behalf of Christian missions in the
German colonies.
When the Emperor assembled the
throne in 1888 there was only one
Catholic Mission House in all Ger
many-the Benedictine House of st.
Odilo. If any one wished to join an
other religious order or congregation,
with the view of becoming mission
airy in heather lands, he had to go to
another country. Even missionary
congregations working in German col
onies were not allowed to train up
new missionaries in Germany. Grad
ually things changed. Germany has
become a colonial power. In the ter
ritories which she can call her own
in Africa, Asia and Australasia, are
to be found millions Of natives, to civ
ilize whom is duty as well as an
economic advantage. But only by i'm.
posing on those heathens the yoke OF
the Cross of Christ can this duty be
discharged. If, then, the cooperation
of the missionaries is warmly vel
coined in far away protectorates, it is
no more than right that facilities fol-
recruiting their forces should be af
forded them in the mother country
When this reasonable demand came tC
be admitted, several missionary con
gregations were established in Ger
many-the congregations of the Divine
Word (Steyl), of the Holy Ghost, o.
the Oblates of Mary Immaculate, the
Oblates of st. Francis de Sales, The
Missionaries of the Sacred Heart o.
Jesus, and the Marists. There arr
now in the German colonies clever
apostolic vicariates and six apostolic
procedures. Two hundred and TWEEN
ty-one mission houses and residences
are stated by 423 priests, 227 lal
brothers. and 1856 nuns. The tota
number of Europeans at worl
amounts, therefore, to 1885. TO thes,
must be added 1878 native teachers
