DEFENDED BY CULLEN
At Dinner in His Honor Jurist
Warns Against Criticism
Of Bench or Bar.
OLD FORMS ARE HELD BEST
Justice Hughes Says the Man,
Not the Rules, Makes JUS
ticc Effective.

The almost solid bench of the First
and Second Judicial districts, Judges OF
the Court Of Appeals. former Judges and
Justices and some of the most distin-
guished members of the Brooklyn and
Manhattan bar gathered last night to
hear Edgar NJ. Cullen. late Chief Judge
Of the Court of Appeals, and Justice
Charles t. Hughes of the United States
Supreme Court praise New York's ju-
, dietary and advise elaboration on pub
lie affairs.
They heard with applause the veneer
able Jurist who left the bench denounce
the author of the new democracy"
whose methods of legal procedure, he said,
would be possible only in Il despotism
with cadi for Judge. They heard the
Associate Justice declare that if
America were to lose it's present ideals
OF justice it will itself be lost.
The dinner was given to Judge Cullen.

three years OF service. The character OF
the guests was summed up 10y one law

Judge CulIen's Address.

Judge Cullen spoke from the standpoint
Of man forty-sevcn years at the bar
and thirty-three years on the bench He
had always loved the law. he said, and
he with others was aware now of spirit
of censure and hostile criticism There
are defects IN judicial procedure, he was
free to admit. but he also believed that
the so-Called judicial reform may pro-
coed in an entirely too iconociastic spirit.
The layman attacks the forms of
judicial procedure and its adherence to
presidents two alleged defects" he con-
tlnued, which. in my opinion, are its

ancient English common law was traced,

Every Catholic young man may be

him lead a good life, be ciean-spoken,
STRAIGHTFORWARD in his dealings with
his neighbors, attentive to his relig:
ious duties, and he will be living
witness to the great moral force OF

We would belittle the written and

This, too, is necessary in an age when
every one reads, and when the press

who shows the result of the Church's

proof to the non-Catholic observer that
we have the faith first delivered to the

To hold it sacred, and know its

Of danger .ar =
To turn for suecor and help to Thee;

A SAINT FOp The WEEK.
ST. GREGORY HAumATuReus.


IA st. Gregory was born in Pontus, of
heather parents In Palestine, about
the year 231, he STUFFED philosophy
under the great Origen, who led him
from the pursuit sof human wisdom to
Christ, Who is the Wisdom of God.
Not long after he was made Bish-
OPP of Neeeaesarea in his own count
try. His humility filled him with fear,
and he retired from the world in order
to learn more accurately the myster-
les of the faith. As he lay awake
one night, an old man entered his
room, and pointed to a lady OF super
human beauty and radiant with heaF.
emily light. This old man was st. John
the Evangelist, and when. the lady told
him to give Gregory the instruction
he desired, st. John said that in this
also he was ready to- please the
Mother of the Lord, ThereupOn he
gave st, Gregory a creed which con-
tanned in all its fu1ness the doctrine
of the Trinity. st. Gregory set it in
writing, directed. all his preaching by
it, and handed il down to his success.

it veritable den of robbers. After
the capture Of the city the Roman sol.
Tiers set up the eagles, their military
standards and the idols of their wor-
ship, and offered sacrifice to them in
the place which had been IsraeIs
Sanctuary. Thus zea1ots and soldiers
fulfilled the prediction in which Our
Lord said that the ''abomination of
desolation would stand in the Holy
Place." Josephus is not our sole wit
ness as to these facts; in Rome it
self to this day stands the triumphal
Arch of Titus, erected in honour of
the conqueror. Josephus refers to
Titus, Agrippa and Vespasian in con-
firmation of his narrative. Medals
struck by .Vespasian and Titus to
commemorate the conquest of Judea
still exist, as mute witnesses. The
Roman historians Tacitus and Sue
tonius, and the Greek Fathers of the
Church add further testimony. The
dispersion of the Jews all over the
world is further confirmation and full
tilment of the prophecy. The wicked
Emperor, Julian the Apostate, tried to
nullify the prophecy, by ordering the
rebuilding of the Temple of Jerusa-
lem. His workmen were terrified and
scattered by terrible balls of fire
which burst forth from the founda-
tons at which they we're at work,
and were compelled to abandon the
undertaking, without accomplishing
anything more than the final fulfil
ment of the prophecy by completely
destroying all that had remained of
the foundation of the old temple in
preparing the foundations of the new.
A friend of Julian himself, a historian
and officer of the imperial army,
called Amman Marcellinus, tells us
of this marvellous event. The his
torian Socrates and Saints Ambrose,
John Chrysostom and Gregory Nazian-
zen, also narrate it, and even the in
fidel Gibbon grudgingly admits the
truth of the narration.
The Jews were punished for the
crime of decide. He who commits a
mortal sin crucifies again the Son of
God and makes a mockery of Him.
Let us beware lest worse fate than
that of the Jews befall us. Death,
the grim visitor, is coming fast to
us all. Watch, for We know not the
day nor the hour" -'..

THE ENEMY.

Our Divine Lord bids us watch and
pray. st. Peter tells us to watch for
our enemy the devil goes about like q
roaring lion seeking whom he may
devour. And st. Paul tells as we have
not to fight merely against flesh and
blood, but against evil spirits who
possess enormous power and cunning.
Perhaps the greatest victory ever
achieved by Satan was his getting SO
many of his dupes and disciples to
deny his existence. God warned !. as

TO OUR LADY OF VICTORY.

Hail, Holy Queen, all hail, Ladie,
Life, sweetness, hope and love;
To thee we raise our ceaseless wall,
Mourning and weeping, faint and pale,
Ewes children, in this fearful vale,
We cry to thee above, Marie,
We cry to thee above.
Sweet Queen of Mercy, deign, Ladie,
To turn thine eyes below:
And when we've DER life's treacherous
main,
Poor exiles, sailed in grief and pain,
Thy wombs blest Fruit, our Jesus
slain,
To us in glory show, Marie,
To us in glory show.
War is our lot below, Ladie,
Whether that war we wage
With sickness, poverty, dearth, or
The passions within that surge. and
glow,
With human tyrant, or fiendish foe,
IT'S the same from age to age,
Marie,
The same from age to age.
Peace is an idle dream, Ladie,
IT'S deadly strife around:
Bitter and red is times turbid stream,
Round us the phantoms of cloudland
scream,
And rarely the swords of the angels
CLEAN,
Till the soul is bound, or crowned,
Marie,
Till God is lost, or found.
But, we call thee not in vain, Ladie,
To the mortal strife of souls,
To walk through this fiery battle-plain,
To teach the weakest to fight amain,
Saying, ''Who Stays not shall be surely
slain,"
And the combat onward rolls, Marie,
The combat onward rolls.
On earth for eVermOre, Ladie,
Shall man resume the strain:
All nations bow thy shrine before,
And the organ-clang of the oceans
roar,
Implore thee more from shore to
shore,
Star of the restless main, Marie,
Star of LIES lonely Main.
