CA THOL|C MEMORIALS.
LOUISIANA KNIGHTS WILL ERECT
HISTORIC MONUMENTS.

On Discovery Day, October IL, there
was an excursion to Bayou Lacombe,
La, by the Fourth Degree Assembly,
Knights of Columbus, for the purpose
of erecting at the site of the Able
Rouquette's Chapel a great granite
cross.
This is the first of a. series of his
toric monuments to be erected in Lou
isiana by the Fourth Degree Assembly.
These will be located as rapidly as
practicable at places of the greatest
Catholic interest, such as La Sales
site for the naming of Louisiana near
the mouth of the river, De Soto's
burial place near the mouth of Red
River, Audubon's birthplace, etc.
The Able Rouquette resided with
the Choctaw Indians near Bayou La
combe for sixteen years. The Indians
called him Chata lima, and he was
thought by them to be saint. He
was at one time attached to the Cathe-
dral in New Orleans, was a great ora
tor and poet, but conceived that his
mission was to convert the Choctaw,
so he, although a cultivated scholar,
buried himself in the woods of this
Indian country and erected a chapel,
adopting the costume and manner of
these people He devoted the last
years of his life to their uplift.
Able Adrian Rouquette was born in
New Orleans in 1873. He was the sec
ond Creole priest to be ordained i'm
this state. The Able vial was the
first i'm America of native birth.
The celebration on October IL was
presided over By Most Reverend Arch
bishop BIenk. OF New Orleans.

London. Oct. Is. 1913.

London, Oct. 15, 1913.
The British public continues to be
attracted and amused by Bernard
Shaw, who, like Shakespeare's woman,
seems to possess infinite variety in the
matter of public entertainment. A
new Shaw play, as for example, AN
drocles and the Lion" is sure to be
heralded far and wide; and a new
Shaw lecture will fill any London hall
to overfiowing. 1t was our good for
tune last week to come early and Sc
cure a seat from which we had the
literary lion at close range.
The personality of Shaw is certainly
attractive; his figure is tall, somewhat
fragile, and slightly stopped owing, no
doubt, to hard work at the desk; his
beard and hair are iron-grey: the
delicate curl in his thin lips indicates
sensitiveness, irony, contempt From
his facial expression you would infer
that he might easily entertain ''the
scorn of scorn, the hate of hate" But
he was in happy mood on this par
ticular occasion and his sparkling blue
eyes fairly danced with merriment, as
paradox after paradox evoked peals of
laughter.
Mr.. Shaw in common with many
English speakers has adopted what
we may call for want of better term
the vibrating method; there is a con-
stant movement of head or hand or
foot without the wild or sprightly ges-
ticulation peculiar to the Celt, French
man, or Italian. | am told that mem
bers of Parliament employ the vibrat-
ing method which is rapidly suppressed
ing the cold, Unconditional style of the
older Briton. Mr.. Shaw kept going,
both body and tongue, for fully an
hour and half, and we enjoyed him
exceedingly.
Like all men of strong personality
Mr. Shaw is able to turn the attention
of his audience away from mere ges-
ture and bearing and concentrate the
minds of his hearers upon what he is
saying. Mr.. Shaw is not an orator in
the sense that Gladstone or Bright or
Bryan are orators; but he has never
theless fine delivery, and his voice
modulated and pleasant can be heard
easily in the largest hall
The British public have come to re-
gard Mr.. Shaw in a two-fold way as
if he possessed double personality.
There is the serious, tragic, earnest
Mr. Shaw with definite message and
purpose and an untiring eagerness to
deliver that message-whenh he speaks
the British audience listens with re-
spectful silence. On the other hand
there is the gay, bubbling, quixotic
Machiavellian Mr.. Shaw smashing all
the conventionalities to make room for
his comic muse-when he declaims or
extemporizes the audience fairly rocks
with laughter. It was our privilege to

MEMORIAL MISSION CROSSES
NEW DECREE REGARDING INDuL-
GENcES ATTACHED TO THEM.

A decree of particular interest to
the clergy in general is given in the
current issue of the "Acta Apostolicae
Sedis" whereby uniformity is given
to the indulgences attaching hence
forth to mission crosses erected to
commemorate spiritual retreats. While
abrogating all indulgences heretofore
granted to such memorials, the Holy
Father now grants to the faithful:
IA plenary indulgence which they
may apply to the dead:
1. On the day of the erection or the
benediction of the memorial cross.
2. On the anniversary day of it's
erection or benediction.
8. On the Feast of the Finding of
the Cross, May 8.
4. On the Feast of the Exaltation of
the Cross, September IA. or on one of
the seven following days.
The conditions for gaining the in
diligence are the worthy reception of
the Blessed Eucharist, visit to the
mission cross and to some church or
public oratory, and prayers for the
intention of the Holy Father
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1913-10-25

see him in the double role, first play
ing the part of the sober, steadfast
Englishman who charitably intends to
assist his Creator in managing the
universe; then like sun through brok-
en- clouds his Celtic nature appeared,
and the vale or rather the audience
laughed and our hall became a veri-
table house of mirth.
What matters it that Shaw took so
cialism for his theme? Any other
topic would have served the purpose
as well; with Emerson and Bacon,
Shaw wants infinite range, for he is
constantly hitching his wagon to a
star, constantly taking all knowledge
for his province
From years of moral juggling with
the tragic and comic sides of life, he
is slowly yielding to the latter, and
the people who now take him serious
ly are growing fewer in numbers. 1t
was JekylHyde existence from the
very start, with the odds in favor of
light comedy
Shaw seems to be conscious of los
ing his hold upon the more serious
classes and at times he seems to
make frantic efforts to win them back.
But men have laughed so often at
what he says and writes, that they are
more and more inclined to treat him
as huge literary joke, sort of mod
ern Falstaff, who struts on the London
boards for the amusement of all COM
ers.
Mr.. Shaw appears not so much bent
upon enforcing his own opinions (if
he really possesses any firm convic-
tion about anything), as he is upon
pleasing his auditors; having reached
that stage in the evolution of the
actor when the galleries must be won
at any cost. The taproot of socialism
has long been known as economic
reform or the redistribution of wealth,
so that Gods inheritance to His peo-
pie may remain intact, instead of
passing into the hands of few col
lossal thieves who manage to evade
the law of the lands, and amass mil
lions by robbing the people of their
God-given inheritance. If socialism
possesses any truth or vitality, it
springs from this taproot-this viola
tion of elementary justice. Yet Mr.
Shaw in the course of his address new
er once touched the bottom or the
core of the economic reform move
ment which under the name of social
ism and other isms now agitates and
perplexes the public mind. On the
contrary, the speaker kept on the sur
/! face of his subject throughout, dis
porting his winged fancies and playful
paradoxes and feathery humor much
after the fashion of a beautiful bird
of the Orient fitting above the sea
on calm sunny afternoon. We were
amused and entertained all the time,
for Shaw is never wearisome; but we
| left the hall with the impression that
his genius finds its true home in light
comedy darkened here and there with
enough of tragic coloring to give the
pleasant picture a proper perspective.
Doubtless in his home beyond the
stars the creator of Hamlet and Mac
beth and Othello smiles upon this pur-
veyor to the modern London stage,
who claims that he is more clever
than William Shakespeare"

COLUMBUS DAY CELEBRATION
COLUMBUS COLLEGE, CHAMBER
LAIN, s. D., OBSERVES "Dlscov-
ERY DAY" WITH APPROPRIATE
cEREMoNIES-MASS, SERMON,
BANQUET AND SPEECHES.

The celebration of Columbus Day
was held at Columbus College, Cham
berlain, S. D., on Tuesday, October IA.

ceeded beyond expectations, This
years celebration was the best in the

Leonard's Mass in e Flat The SER
mon was preached by Rev. D. F. Des-
mond, of Huron, S. D.. 1t was eloquent
and eminently practical. Father Des-

tian education and made stirring ex-
hortation for the support of institu-
tions of learning.

tically decorated for the occasion and
where plates had been laid for two
hundred visitors During the ban
quet the music was rendered by Co
lumbus College orchestra.
Mr.. Daniel Conway, city attorney of
Sioux Falls, was postmaster, and his
flashes of humor kept the guests in a
merry mood. His beautiful tribute to
Isabella, the Queen of Spain, and to
the great discoverer of America re
ceived long and hearty applause.
Mr.. F. K. Berry, Mayor of Cham
berlain, gave the address of welcome.
Mr.. Louis Welch responded to the

for Columbus College brought rounds
of applause from the guests and from
the business men M Chamberlain
who to the numbers9 forty, attended
the days festivities Several i'm.
promptu speakers were called upon
among them Rev. M. J. Breen, G. s.
", President of the college, who out
lined a brilliant plan of action for the
young institution, and Rev. George
Walsh, who represented the Right

successful one and the sentiments Of
all present were that Columbus Col
lege would soon rank with other in
stitutions of the country in numbers
as it now does in excellence.

The note at the foot of this list
says: "All the receipts did amount
on the 1st of September, 1855, to
$1,349. All the expenses for quarry
g and cutting stones, canal, & Get
( $1,551.84 cts. Those who have not
paid anything are invited to remem
n their promises. The work shall
be stopped until the money comes
The fifth part of it is done"
It may seem strange to some that a
fit part of the work of constructing
the Cathedral had been completed
when only $1,349 had been received
from subscribers. This sum was q
mere bagatelle in comparison with
the cost of the Cathedral. But we
must remember that the greater por
tion of the funds for the erection o1
the building was received from the
Society for the Propagation of the
Faith in France. This society dealt
very generously with the early mis-
sionaries in the United States anC
large sums were received from it fol
many years for the carrying on Of
it not for the financial assistance
given by this society the present
Cathedral of st. Paul could not have
been erected and equipped for the
work of religion more than sixty years
ago. No doubt, the Catholics of those
days contributed as generously as
their means allowed; but they were
far from rich and the sum of theil
contributions towards the Cathedra
was small in comparison to the cos
of the structure.

SUCCEEDS CARDINAL YVES
POPE Plus x APPOINTS CARDINAL
CAGIANo DE AZEVEDo PREFEcT
OF THE SACRED coNGREGA-
TIoN OF RELIGIOUS.

giano de Azevedo Pro-Prefect After
the death of Cardinal Wives the Pro-
Prefect succeeded to the important
office of Prefect.

PRO-CATHEDRAL PROGRAM

try. 1t is fitting that this message
should be voiced within the Pro-
Cathedral, which, thus becomes a CEN
ter for civic betterment even before
it is dedicated to the religious pur-
pose for which it was built
The literary program herein out
lined is not the only appeal which the
Prof. Cathedral is to make to the pub
lie. To this intellectual treat a
musical feature has been added which
cannot fail to prove interesting and
instructive. On the afternoon and
evening Of Thanksgiving Day, Novem-
Der 27, the world-famous Boys Choir
of the Paulist Church in Chicago, will
stage what will undoubtedly be the
most notable musical event ever held
in the Twin Cities Thousands who
have longed for an opportunity to
hear this unique choral society will
be gratifled to know that their wishes
can easily be realized.
The Paulist Choristers need no in
PRODUCTION to the music-loving people
of the Northwest Their reputation
is international and their success is
capturing the first prize in competi-
ton with nearly five hundred Euro
pean choirs has given them stand
ing in the musical world which justi-
ffes the hope that the Prof. Cathedral
Auditorium, great as it is, will be too
small to accommodate the thousands
who wish to hear this unrivaled choir
under the direction Of Father Finn.
One of the primary objects whick
the committee in charge of this pro-
gram had in view was to afford the
people of Minneapolis and of the
Northwest an opportunity to view the
magnificent and artistic interior of the
new Prof Cathedral, which is now rap
idly approaching completion. The peo-
pie Of Minneapolis have watched the
Cathedral rise in unrivaIed splen-
dor and symmetry of proportion, but
until they catch glimpse of its artis-
tic interior they can have but faint
idea of the architectural beauty Of this
imposing structure. 1t is an orna-
ment to their city, an object of civic
pride and interest of which they may
be justly proud. The program for next
month win afford them an opportunity
to show their appreciation Of the work
already accomplished and to cooper
ate I'm tangible manner In bringing
this great undertaking to speedy com
pletion.

ia partial indulgence, also applic-
able to the souls in Purgatory, of five
years and quarantines, which may be
gained once day by the faithful who
salute with contrite heart by some
exterior sign of devotion the mission
cross and recite Pater, Ave and
Gloria in memory of the Passion.
The cross must be made out of
solid and decorous material and re-
main upon determined spot, or at
least be firmly sustained upon it's
basis. Moreover, it is to be blessed
by the priest who had preached the
mission, and the consent of the Bishop
of the diocese must be obtained for
it's erection.

DEATH OF CARDINAL AGUIRRE
IN 1885 AND
NAMED ARCHBISHOP OF ToLE-
DO IN 19oo-PRIMATE OF SPAIN
-PROCLAIMED CARDINAL IN
1907.

His Eminence Cardinal Gregory
Maria Aguirre y Garcia, Archbishop of
Toledo and Primate of Spain, died on
October 9, in his episcopal city in the
year of his age On
the following Sunday his remains were
conveyed to their last resting place
after the Pontifical Mass of Requiem,
which was celebrated by Monsignor
the Papal Nuncio to Mad
rid.
The deceased Cardinal was born at
Pola de Gordon in the Diocese of
Oviedo, Spain, March IL, 1885. He
joined the Franciscan Order and after
his ordination taught philosophy and
theology for about twenty years in
different colleges. For time he was
rector of the College of Almagro and
later was placed in charge of the
Pueblo of Montalban. On March 27,
1885, he was consecrated Bishop of
Lugo, whence he was transferred to
Burgos in 1894. He was created and
proclaimed Cardinal by Pope Plus X
in the Consistory of April Is, 1907,
and two years later was promoted to
the Archiepiscopal See of Toledo and
made Primate of Spain.

A few days ago there came into
our hands an interesting historical
document which goes back to the
days when the Right Reverend Jo-
seph Cretin, first Bishop of st. Paul,
was engaged in the task of erecting
new Cathedral This document is
printed list of the contributors to the
building of the present Cathedral OF
St. Paul on the corner of Sixth and
St. Peter Streets, as well as 'the sums
promised and paid" for the erection
of the new Catholic Church in st.
Paul from November, 1852, up to Sep
tember, 1855.
It would seem that in these days
money was not any more plentltul
than it is at the present time. The
committee charged with the building
of the Cathedral had evidently can
vassed the city and secured from
the people promissory notes In
which they pledged themselves to pay
a given amount in monthly Install
ments.
The following is the promis-
sorry note to which they subscribed:
81, the undersigned, promise to pay
the members of the committee for the
erection of the Catholic Church in st.
Paul the sum of $....... each month
from the first of April, 1855, until the
first of January, 1857" Attached to
this are the names of the subscribers,
together with the total sum pledged
and the amount paid. The list is
quite long for those early days. We
publish it for it's historic value. Few,
if any, of the subscribers are now
alive; but many who knew some OF
them at least are still in the flesh, and
the descendants of these old families
are still to be found in this city.
