PSALM XXXV.
DIxIT INJUSTUS.
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Helen Hughes HieIscher.)

The wicked said within his heart
That he would sin; there is no fear
OF God before his eyes,-deceit
In all his works and deeds appear.
His words are guile, and his own heart
Is closed against the truth and light;
He will not let his own self know
That he might do that which is right
He thinketh evil in his dreams,
And plans in sinful ways to tread,
But Thou,-Thy mercy reachest, Lord
Far as the arching heavens are spread
Thy truth far as the free cloud sails,
In heavens outspread immensities,
Thy justice, as the mount of God,
Thy judgment deep as soundless seas.
Both man and beast doth Thou pre-
serve,
Thy many mercies let us sing,
The son of man shall put his trust
Beneath the shadow. of Thy wing
And Thou wilt fill the soul with joy,
Which foweth as a mountain stream,
For with Thee is the spring of life,
From Thee the light" upon us beams.
Thy mercy show to those who fear,
Thy justice to the clean of heart,
Nor let pride cast insulting down,
The just who choose Thee for their
part.

LIFE IN THE CANAL ZONE

stages OF development, the Panamanian
type with varying doses of Indian
blood, and the Negro type bearing the
imprint of English, French, or Spanish
influence. At church the Negroes sing
and serve Mass, and one cannot help
admiring how well they do both
In the house the Fathers have a
club room, where American Catholic
young men meet after working hours.
The young men seem quite assiduous
in their visits and the Fathers deserve
the highest commendation for this
form of zeal in such climate.
Missionary Work of Negress.
At Empire may be seen a Negress
who acts as sacristan. Her life might
serve as model to many.
During the French attempt to dig a
canal many Negroes were brought
from the French islands. When the
French withdrew, these remained.
Here they were with a church, but
with no regular service. Here was
an occasion for the zeal of the colored
Sacristan. On Sundays she gathered
all the Negroes in the church, recited
the Mass prayers, the rosary, made
them sing hymns, and taught cate
chism. At present she seems blessed
with certain air of venerability, and
one cannot help but notice the serenity
OF countenance of the old Sacristan
as she slowly nears the grave, full of
years and good works.
In the bush or jungle most of the
people are Indians or mixed-bloods. A
pure white man is not so easily found.
These Indians are well stocked with
Spanish courtesy, and the visitor to
their home returns with a high opin-
ion of them.
Faith has deep roots in their heart
and all attempts to make them aban-
don it seem to be slow of success.
Protestant Missions Unsuccessful.
Before January, 1914, all mission
aries in the Canal Zone received a
monthly allowance of 500 from the
United States Government. There
were twelve Protestant ministers
then. In January, the Government,
considering the canal practically fin
ished, withdrew the allowance and
ten ministers departed for greener
pastures.
The observer in the Canal Zone can
not see where Protestant missionaries
are drawing any large numbers to
their church. On the contrary, Prot
estantism seems to be against the
grain of the Panamanian nature. But
somebody must furnish the money,
and hence somebody must be duped.
Hence the long, glowing articles on
papal darkness and evangelical light,
Catholic sloth and Protestant fervor.
From their point of view this must
needs be, for were the Northern
money to stay at home some people
could not enjoy the luxury of living
amid tropical verdure.

K. OF c. FESTIVAL
SUCCESSFUL BAZAAR AND INDUS
TRIAL EXHIBIT GIVEN BY THE
LOCAL KNIGHTS-MANY EXHIR-
IToRs-WILL CLOSE SATURDAY
NIGHT.

The May Festival and Industrial Ex-
hibit which is being held this week in
the Knights of Columbus Club House
on Smith avenue under the auspices
of the st. Paul Council, is drawing
large crowds and proving very sue
cessful from a financial as well as an
artistic and educational standpoint.
The formal opening took place on
Monday evening, May II, when buglers
from st. Thomas College gave the sig
nal for the unfurling of the Stars and
Stripes from the balcony of the gym
nasium, and Immediately thereafter
the various booths and attractions
were opened to the public. The Col
lege band then played "The Star Span
gled Banner" and this was followed
by May Pole Dance given by num-
ber Of school children under the direc-
ton of Miss Helen Heck. The various
features of the bazaar have been well
patronized during the week and those
in charge of the affair are well pleased
with the success which has thus far
attended their efforts. The bazaar
will close on Saturday night when the
various prizes will be awarded to the
winners. Among these prizes the most
important are a dve-passenger Kissel
Kar, 1914 model, equipped with all the
latest improvements, and Victrola
costing two hundred dollars.
Ten booths, in addition to the coun-
try store, are installed in the gymna-
SUM which is artistically decorated
with flags and bunting. These are in
charge of the lady friends of the mem
bers Of the Council.
The Industrial Exhibit in the audi
torium of the Club House is well worth
a visit. The leading firms of the city
have displayed their wares in an artis-
tic way and much favorable comment
was heard about the arrangement and
variety of the exhibits. Among the
principal exhibitors are the T.. M. Lob
mann Co., Frank A. Ubel, Tri-State
Telephone Company, Minnesota Maca-
roni Company, Snowflake Baking Pow
der Co., Holm & Olson, Hart &c Muir
ply, st. Paul Gas Light Co., the M. A.
Hanna Coal Co., the Borg Furniture
Co., Griggs, Cooper & Co., and The

COLLEGE OF ST. THOMAS
ANNUAL MILITARY INSPECTION
AND SHAM BATTLE.

Last Tuesday the University of Min
nesota and the College of st. Thomas
fought their annual sham battle. Nine
formed the rear guard of a force which
was retreating across the Minnesota
river at point two miles south of
Fort Smelling This rear guard the
University forces sought to push aside
with a view to preventing the retreat
of the main body and capturing it's
field train. If st. Thomas could hold
the University at bay for two hours
the force whose retreat it was cover
ing would have made good it's escape.
The st. Thomas outpost was stationed
in the woods close to Fort Smelling
and at the beginning of the engage
ment gave considerable trouble to the
enemy who were deceived as to the
strength of the st. Thomas contingent.
At this point the University lost val
liable time. The st. Thomas outpost
was at last driven in, fighting every
inch of the ground as it retreated in
order to delay the advance of the en-
emy as long as possible. When at last
the University came in touch with the
main force of st. Thomas it delivered
it's attack on the right flank of the st.
Thomas position, but found the Col
lege cadets so strongly entrenched that
it could make but little headway
against the whitening fire which it had
to face. The st. Thomas field pieces
had been cunningly masked and when
the heavy guns suddenly opened fire
the University forces found them
selves in a very precarious position.
Indeed the st. Thomas artillery was
the deciding factor in the fray.
Against the twelve companies OF
which the University force was COM
posed St. Thomas put nine companies
in the field.
Among the officers who witnessed
the fight between the University and
the College were Captain Laubach of
the General Staff; Major Penrose, COM
manding officer at Fort Smelling; Lieu
tenant Thummel of the U. S. Artillery;
Lieutenant Perkins of the 3rd Cavalry,
Major Leach and Captain Baldwin of
the Minnesota National Guard. The
beautiful weather was an additional at
traction and helped to swell the great
concourse of people from the Twin
Cities who went out to witness the
maneuvers.
On May Sth and 9th the annual mil
itary inspection of the Corps of Ca
diets of the College of St. Thomas took
place. Captain Laubach of the War
College, Washington, D. c., who had
been detailed by the Secretary of War
to conduct the inspection, appeared at
the College a week before the date
scheduled for his arrival. On Friday
he examined the accoutrements, equip
ment and quarters, and also put the
cadets through company, battalion and
regimental drills, in close and extend
ed order. On Saturday the cadets
were tested in field work. Students OF
the graduating class were selected by
lot to take charge of the military op-
erations in which the problems were
set. The College authorities were
pleased with the showing which the
companies made and are looking for
ward to a favorable report at the
hands of the inspector. Last year the
College received from the War Depart
ment a special recommendation for
efficiency as the result of the inspec-
ton.

MISSIONARIES FROM
FAR EAST TAKE PART
Mistake of Counting Converts
Rather Than Weighing Them
Report of President of Jud-
son Centennial Commission

Boston, June 25,-An appeal for
more financial support for foreign
missions was made by several dele
gates at the closing sessions of the
Northern Baptist convention today.
Carter Helm Jones of Seattle, pres
ident of the American Baptist Foreign
Mission Society which today celeorat-
ed the centennial anniversary of the
Establishment of Baptist foreign mis-
sons by Adroniram Judson, urged the
delegates to a new aggressiveness in
missionary work which should extend
to the ends of the earth.
Missionaries from India, China ana
Japan took part in the centennial OBJ
servance There were 40 or 80 on the
platform, several Of whom made ad-
dresses, appealing for more support
from home. Among the speakers were
Revs. J. E. Cummings, d. A. smith,
David Gilmore and C. L. Davenport
of Burma. Rev. H. A Remington OF
japan and Rev. R B. Longwen OF
Issam.
I'VE make a mistake in counting
converts rather than weighing them,
