HARD TIMES IN THE CHINESE
PROVINCE OF KUEcHAU,

Father ]. Champeyrol, P. F. M, de-
scribes himself as lost in the depths of
Koui-yang-fou, in the poorest province
of the Chinese Empire. Inundated
with pagans since the revolution, he
has neither schools, pharmacy, nor an
adequate chapel to accommodate the
catechumens.
Hard times are the rule among his
people. The failure of rice harvests
causes great suffering. Roots gath.
cred in the mountains have been form.
ing the chief diet of the population,
with the result of causing disease and
utter exhaustion.
Another disaster, though intended
for the general good, came through the
new edict against opium. A large
crop of poppies had been planted, and
an abundant harvest was assured,
when the government passed the law
prohibiting the sale of the plants, and
large amount of money was accord
ingly lost. All the hopes of the starv-
ing people lay in this traffic, but the
soldiers had orders to destroy the crop
in the fields, and did so.
Opium is surely the great curse of
the people, and the government has
the good of its children in view, but
the moment of enforcing the law was
a trying one to Father Champeyrors
charges.

RULWARK OF CATHOLICISM.

Speaking on "A Sociological Study
of the Church" before the Methodist
Preachers Meeting in Wesley Hall,
Philadelphia, recently, Professor Her
bert N. Shenton, Of Columbia Univer-
sity, told his audience that the Church
began to lose prestige and power when
it split into numerous denominations.
He said:
First piece broke off the Catholic
Church Then this Protestant Church
began to divide, and the process has
continued until we have $50 or 100
varieties. 1t is time for the churches
to forget their credal differences and
concentrate upon few fundamental
things in which they all agree"
The speaker said the Church should
give more attention to the great army
of immigrants which was sweeping
into this country at rate of more
than a million year. He said the
Methodist Church was, comparatively,
a rural religion, as only fifteen per-
cent of it's enrolled members lived
in cities having more than $4,000 popu-
lation. Professor Shenton said the
Catholic Church has more than fifty
per cent of it's members in these cities
Apart from the Catholic and Lu-
theran Churches, he said, little or no
religious instruction was being given
to the immigrants. Professor Shen-
ton urged more preachers of for
eign nationality in the evangelical
churches.

BUILDING THE NEGRO MISSIONS.
Negroes a Religious Race-Success of
Methodists and Baptists.

A brick here and a piece of mortar
there with a handsome pile of stone
and 10 a stately Cathedral is erected.
The work is accomplished not by any
individual effort, but through the COM
bined efforts of many. The people
who supply the material and help in
such a good work draw down Gods
blessing, for they have helped to pro-
vide house dedicated to His service.
The above is synonymous of the
great work that is going on in the
South for the propagation of the Faith
among the Negro race. 1t might be
said that the foundation is little more
than laid, the work is so immense.
The salvation of millions of unbap-
tized Negroes to be attended to,
churches and schools to be built, to
form the one great edifice of Catholic
ism. Will you help in the good work?
A brick here and a piece of mortar
there and in a short time fine school
is built. That is the first thing to be
seen to-the schools. Educate the
Negro children and you will soon have
the South a Catholic country. The
Negroes are crying for instruction, for
they are essentially a religious race.
Witness the success of the Methodist
and Baptist preachers among them.
Just think of it! The colored Baptists
have 1S,307 churches and 17,0S8 or
dained preachers. The Methodists
have $4,000 churches in the United
States. We Catholics have but SO
churches, $50 schools and 1T priests
working exclusively or additionally for
the conversion of the ten millions of
Negroes. Does it not make your heart
bleed to see how these poor Negroes
are beguiled by their specious argu-
ments and material help which is only
a cloak to instill in them hatred for
anything Catholic.
Since the establishment of the
Catholic Board for Mission Work
Among the Colored People, The
Bishops Board, six years ago, 81 new
missions for the colored people have
been established. But the Southern
Bishops are crying out for more help.
Since the Civil War the South has
not been in a position to carry on this
work of the conversion of the Negro
without outside help. AS Catholics
born with the precious gift of the
Faith we cannot shut our eyes to the
situation.

HOSPITAL SISTERS.

When Lord Gray, late Governor
General of Canada, was delivering a
speech at the laying of a cornerstone
in Bulawayo, Africa, he recounted
some of his experiences as Admins
traitor during the Matabele Rebellion
in 1896, and paid beautiful tribute
to the Sisters who left precious memo
ries behind them for their work in an
African Hospital.
MANY brave, rough pioneer" said
he, with a heart of gold, blessed, as
he died, those gentle Dominican Sis
tiers, who appeared ITO him, in his
dreams, to be as the angels of heaven.
am, indeed, glad to have the oppor-
tunity now, fifteen or sixteen years
after they have left, of paying trib-
ute to the devotion which they showed
in the treatment of the sick and suf-
fering during the early days of the
history of this hospital. No one can
ever disparage the Dominican Sisters
without being called upon, by every
true Rhodesian pioneer, to give d.
rect and an immediate account of his
words. They have left precious mem
DRY behind them, and Bulawayo and
the whole of Rhodesia are the richer
for this heritage. 1 confess that by
those who, like myself are lovers of
the picturesque and the beautiful, of
the atmosphere engendered by dis
ciplined obedience to authority, of de-
voted self-sacrifice, and of absolute
disregard for self-interest in concern
for the welfare of others, the passing
away of the Dominican Sisters was
witnessed with deep regret"

WHAT THE CHURCH STANDS FOR.

Rev. DR.. John Faville, one of the
oldest and best known Protestant min
listers in Wisconsin, speaking from the
pulpit Of the Appleton Congregational
Church, took for his subject, "Why
Believe in the Roman Catholic
Church."
Dr. Faville then went on to develop
the following points in favor of the
Catholic Church:
1. 1t stands for authority; demands
obedience; speaks with note of as
surance and faith.
2. The Catholic Church stands for
Christ 1t is not Church that "sits
and sings itself away in everlasting
bliss" It joins prayer and service;
faith and works.
g. This Church stands for devotion;
the worshipful in religion. Two of
the hymns we used tonight came from
Catholic hymn writer's. What music
has been born at her affairs; what
books on prayer and devotion she has
furnished.
4. It stands for democracy. AS no
other church, it levels all men and
women at the altar
5. It stands for great names and
deeds in history. Since the Reforma-
ton, history has been written too
much from the Protestant point of
view, and too often the Catholic
Church of the past has not had fair
dealing in its work in education, or
art, or morals, or religion. We single
out Athanasius in creed-making, Au-
gustine in theology, Savonarola in re-
form, Thomas attempts in devotion,
and all Of us bow down to them as
masters.
6. The Catholic Church stands for
womanhood. The Catholic Church
has been rich in it's womanhood, de-
voted to special religious work; it's
womanhood that has foregone life
of ease and pleasure and of the home
life, and taken up the life of teacher
and nurse and missionary. The Sis
terhoods of the Catholic Church hail
Mary as their inspiration and adora-
ton, but this is not her greatest place
in the worlds history. She has, by
the emphasis that this Church has
placed upon her, by the exaltation
that some protest against, put into
Christianity new force, true power
for the worlds good.
For years my convictions have
strengthened that the time has come
when the Protestant must see that to
exalt Professionalism by degrading Cath
olicism; to call the Protestant Church
the chosen of God, and the Catholic
Church the mother of iniquity; to look
for the weakness and the wrong in
her and not see the strength and the
good in her; to fence ourselves off and
say we are right always and they are
wrong always; to assume that the
Catholic does not want to be or can
not be, or is not, as good a home
maker and citizen, as good a patriot
and Christian as the Protestant, or
that this Church has not had a part in
the bringing Of the Kingdom of God
to this earth, and is having part
now-for years have felt that to take
that position is poor Professionalism
and poorer Christianity.

A GARLAND OF SOULS.

Father Sylvan Bousquet, P. F. NJ,
writes from Osaka, Japan:
Il was permitted this year to offer a
little garland of two hundred and fifty
infant baptisms to Our Lord. Two
hundred of the babies died very short
ly, and in Heaven they will not forget
the friends who made their salvation
possible.
More than two hundred conferences
were given to pagans, the audiences
varying from twenty to six hundred
Recently woman eighty years of age,
who had been baptized thirty years
ago, died. Six hundred pagans were
present at the burial, although at the
time she was baptized not one would
have witnessed the interment of a
Catholic. Happily times are changing
and prejudice is becoming a thing OF
the past in many districts"
