A New Yorker was speaking Of a

"a feature of the show" he said,
was the magnificent riding of certain
Arab chiefs. These chiefs gave a din

HARRY TO BECOME MEN.
In Kerea Males Are Looked Upon as
Children Until They Wed.

Children Until They Wed.
The Koreans marry very young. gen
orally between the ages Of twelve and
fifteen. For woman to reach twenty
without marrying is considered ter
rible thing. A popularity OF these
weddings is that they would appear to
be a matter OF interest to every one
except the parties mostly concerned,
who often see one another for the first
time on the wedding morning. This Is
because in a Korean household the
boys are kept apart from the girls, the
father and the sons occupying the.
front Of the house aud the mother and
daughters living in the rear Of the es-
tablishment Moreover, in their social
life the boys are not allowed to mix
with the gentler sex.
The parents and friends arrange the
match in accordance with their own
interests. and II both parties agree and
the bargain is concluded the formah-
ties are OF the simplest. There is no
religious ceremony and no legal con-
tract.
Early on the wedding morn the best
man arrives to tie the bridegroom's
pigtail in a knot on the top Of his head
This not only remains forever as an
outward and visible sign Of his condi-
ton. but entities him to wear hat for
the first time in his life and to be
treated as a man and enter public life.
He may be a mere child twelve years
of age, but he has no longer any right
to play with his boy friends and must
choose his associates among old men.
He has now all civil rights and Is
expected to behave accordingly. II, on
the contrary. a man is unable to AFFORD
the luxury Of a home and a wife. he
may reach the age Of fifty, but he must
still wear his pigtail down his back.
has none of the advantages of citizen
ship and is expected to play with kites,
marbles and such like. Any folly he
may commit is excused in the same
way as the naughtiness Of a child who
is not responsible for his actions.
The wedding ceremony itself is most
simple. The whole function consists Of
procession when the bride and BRIDE
groom are conducted by their respect
i've relations to a dais. There they are
put face to face and probably, as al
ready stated. see each other for tho
first time. They merely glance at one
another, then bow, and the knot is tied
indissolubly.-Wide World Magazine.

MARQUETTE MEMORIAL
EFFORTS TO FIND CORRECT SITE
FOR ITS ERECTION.

The Commercial Association of La
Sale, ILL.,, is making every effort to
secure information regarding the ap-
proximate location of the site of Fa-
ther Marquette's Mission in the In
dian village of Kaskaskia, in order
that the committee that will have
charge of the movement for the erec-
tion of a memorial cross will have all
the available data necessary for the
undertaking.
Father Marquette kept a diary of
his travels, which, while never COM
pleted, treats of the establishing of
the Mission of the Immaculate Con-
ception of the Blessed Virgin at Kas-
kaskia. The water-stained manuscript
Of this thrilling narrative is now held
as a sacred relic at st. Mary's Col
lege, Montreal.
AS the data contained in Father
lTarquette's personal account of the
establishment of the mission will
greatly lesson the difficulties with
which the committee will have to con-
tend, the officials of the college have
Commissioned Rev. A. e. Jones, S. j.,
who has charge of the archives to
gve all the information possible re-
garding the Mission of the Immaculate
Conception established by Marquette
in 1875.

ENTHUSIAST MEETING AT
PHILADELPHIA-o OFF,
GERS REELECTED.

The forty-third annual convention
of the Catholic Total Abstinence
Union of America, which met at Phil
adelphia last week, was brought to a
close on Friday evening with the cleo
tion of the following officers: Right

inc Kelly, Kansas City, Mo-, Third
Vice President; Rev. J. V. Moylan,
Nanticoke, Pa, Treasurer; Thomas E.
McCluskey, Danbury, Conn, General
Secretary.
The meeting was a very enthusiastic
one, owing to the fact that Philadel-
phia has long been the stronghold of
the total abstinence movement in the
United States.
In his opening address, Father
O'Callaghan, President Of the Union,
emphasized the necessity for a per-
manent headquarters, and appealed
for financial support from the mem
bers. He also dwelt on the need of
speakers and writer's in every part OF
the country who would keep the ques-
tion of total abstinence before the
public.
The convention called upon the rev.
erend clergy and the laity to labor for
the formation of total abstinence so
cieties in every part of the country
and to create a strong public senti-
ment in favor of the movement.
The Priests Total Abstinence
League held its annual session during
the convention and elected the Rev.
M. A. Lambing, of Scottdale, Pa,
President for the ensuing year.

KNGHTs OF COLUMBUS THE FIGHT FOR CIVILIZATION

few of the things Can he afford to
lose them?
Perhaps he thinks, as so many Of
us seem to think, that civilization de-
velops by virtue of some imminent
principle of nature. The Darwinian
hypothesis has colored so much Of our
thought with the wrong color-we
hear all the time of animal evolution
and social evolution, as if they were
channelled by the same inexorable
law. The truth is that nature wars
constantly against civilization; we
have had to fight nature for it, we
must fight nature to keep it, we must
fight nature to extend it and improve
it. Teach him that.
1t is a big fight, this fight for civili-
zation. You should take your part in
it. You should condemn and not sup
port a press that is fiashy and full of
the folly of false philosophy; you
should by example and by precept, by
just dealing with employees if you are
an employer, by counsel to your fel-
lows if you are an employe, by sup
porting an intelligent and an honest
advocacy of just dealing between
brother men whether they be en-
ployes or employers in clean press,
play your part in the battle for a bet
ter world and wider civilization
against the forces that madness pos
sesses and impels toward a black and
hopeless barbarism.
