ability was the strength and support
of every movement.
In no way did he show greater wis

Monsignor Ireland was named by
the Pope to the see of Nebraska, and
laid before His Holiness the needs of
his own diocesewith such effect that
the appointment was recalled and
the church of Minnesota saved from
irreparable loss.
He called from st. Cloud the
priests of st. Benedict, whose untir-
ing energy built up the beautiful
Church of the Assumption, always a
center of most edifying devotion.
He recognized in Father Caillet
those qualities which have made his
name household word, his memory
a benediction, and to him was given
the pastorate of st. Mary's, "the first
fair branch from the parent STEM"
which under his wise and prudent
management became one of the first
parishes in the city.
He selected for the priesthood boys
whose rare talents have made them
leaders in the world of thought, re-
nowned in the field of science, emil
nent as professors, distinguished as
bishops; whose culture has fitted
them for the advance guard of the
Church of the twentieth century, yet
whose richest possession is their zeal
and simply piety.

He was regarded as one of the alb

the last ten years of his public life

AMERICAN JEWS

Many Have Become Members of
the Catholic Church.
The Church has many Hebrews
among it's converts here in America,
who have faced racial ostracism be-
cause of the courage of their convic-
tions. Once the light of faith is
given to them they have the courage
to openly confess their convictions.
Among those of the Jewish peo-

written by Father Pise, one time
chaplain of the United States senate.
Father Pise died in 1860
They say I do not love thee,
Flag of my native land,
Whose meteor-folds above me
To the free breeze expand;
Thy broad stripes proudly stream
ing,
And thy stars so brightly beaming.
They say I would forsake thee,
Should some dark crisis lower;
That, recreant, l should make thee
Crouch to a foreign power;
Seduced by license ample,
On thee, blest flag, to trample.
False are the words they utter,
Ungenerous their brand,
And rash the oaths they mutter,
Flag of my native land;
While still, in hope, above me
Thou wavest-and I love thee.

They say that bolts of thunder,
Hurled by the Pontiff's hand,
May rive and bring thee under,
Flag of my native land,
And with one blow discover
My heart from thee forever.
Gods is my loves first duty
To whose eternal name
Be praise for all thy beauty,
Thy grandeur and thy fame
But ever have l reckoned
Thine, native flag, it's second.
Woe to the foe or stranger
Whose sacreligious hand
Would touch thee or endanger,
Flag of my native land!
Though some would fain discard
thee,
Mine should be raised to guard
thee.
Then wave, thou first of banners,
And in thy genial shade
Let creeds. opinions, manners.
In love and peace be laid;
And there, all discord ended,
Our hearts and souls be blended
Stream on, stream on before us,
Thou labarum of light,
While in one general chorus
Our vows to thee we plight;
Unfaithful to thee, never!
My country's flag forever!

London.-A French aviator is re-

a German rifle bullet which he had
caught in his hand. The story goes
that he was flying at a height Of about
seven thousand feet when he sudden
ly became aware Of a small black OBJ

was an insect Of some kind, and was
sufficient of an entomologist to realize
that a flying insect at such an alti-
tude was a curiosity. So he stretched
out his hand and grasped what to his
amazement proved to be a bullet.
He explained afterward that 1t was
evidently a rife bullet that had been
fired almost vertically and had
reached its utmost elevation. He
arrived on his aeroplane just at the
moment when the bullet slowly turned
over and was about to fall again.
