SISTERS WILL REMAIN
RELIGIOUS IN INDIAN SCHOOLS
WILL NOT BE LEGISLATED OUT
OF Their Observation-Disclosures
STRIKES OUT OBJECTIONABLE
PROVISION.

The anti-Catholic bigots in the
House of Representatives, who tried
to drive the Sisters out of the Gov
eminent Indian schools by an act of
legislation, have met with ignominious
defeat
Mr.. John Hall Stephens of Texas
is the chairman of the Indian COM
mittee of the House, and consequently
chairman of the subcommittee which
framed the Indian bill. 1t was known
on good authority that in the Indian
Appropriation Bill, as drafted by the
subcommittee, provision was made
for the appropriation of $1,440,000
"for support of Indian day and in
dustrial scools not otherwise provided
for, and for other educational and
industrial purposes in connection
herewith Provided, that no part
of this appropriation, or any other
appropriation provided for herein or
hereafter, except appropriations made
pursuant to treaties, shall be paid any
employee in any position in the Indian
school service, who does not hold a
certificate showing that such employee
has passed the necessary examination
required by the Civil Service Commits
sion for such position" etc.
This provision would have elimi-
mated the Sisters, and certain other
employees from the government
scholastic Sisters not having en-
tered the Civil Service by means of
examinations, but having been COW
cred in by executive order under a
ruling of the Civil Service Commits
sion.
When the bill was under considera-
ton in the House an effort was made
by many members to have the objec
tionable portion of the items stricken
out, but after a lengthy discussion in
which Mr.. Stephens of Texas
strongly advocated it, elimination of
the item was defeated by strictly
party vote-44 ayes, 63 noes, a
majority of 10.
| The bill came up in the Senate and
passed, with the Objectionable proviso
stricken out. After the return of the
bill to the House of Representatives
spirited discussion took place in
which many members from all parts
of the country participated
Stephens of Texas still with tena-
cious advocacy of the Objectionable
portion, insisting that it be inserted
in the bill
The question on the motion of Mr..
Stafford of Wisconsin to concur in the
Senate amendment was taken; and
on a division demanded by Mr..
Stephens of Texas there were-ayes

GOLDEN JUBILEE
PRIMATE OF AFRICA eHoNoRED
BY HIS PEoPLE-MAGNIFI-
CENT FETES.

Magnificent scenes were witnessed
at Tunis in Northern Africa on July 8
when the city and all it's inhabitants,
Tunisians, French, Italians, Maltese,
Jews and Arabs, united to celebrate
with truly Eastern pomp and gorge
BUSINESS the golden jubilee of the
beloved Catholic Primate of Africa,
Monsignor Combes. The Cathedral
was beautifully decorated and bril-
liantly Illuminated at night. On the
evening of Thursday a great process
sion escorted the venerable prelate to
the Cathedral built by Cardinal
Lavigerie. A band led the way, fol-
lowed by the numerous confraternities
of Maltese and Italians, with multi
colored raiment and many banners.
Then came whole troop of choir
boys in red cassocks and maltese lace
cottas, followed again by contingent
of the White Fathers of the Desert.
All the clergy of Tunis, the canons
of Carthage in purple, and the Bishops
in cloth of gold, copes and mitres,
brought up the rear, preceding a
canopy carried by four deacons in dal-
mates over the African Primate who

Bishop Wehrle declared; "The more
/ have to do with Indians, the more
realize the peculiar value of the
catechists. They work under the di-
rection of the priests. They receive
only ten or fifteen dollars a month.
But they do work no one else can
do so well. Knowing their religion,
tongue Here is work which should
appeal to many a good Catholic
among the white people; to pay for
a catechist, an Indian, to teach In
dams catechism.'
In reference to the st. Josebh's
and st. Mary's Societies, which have
done so much to Keep and spread
the Faith among the Dakota Sioux,
Father Ketcham of The Catholic In
dian Bureau, Worthington, d. c., said:
Their work is unique. Except in
early Christian times, when we had
the agape, or feasts of Christian love,
there is no institution like them.
They have been indispensable and
have supplied as nearly as anything
can the lack of priests for Holy Mass"
At the same time with the Montana
Congress, a Catholic Indian Congress
was held in South Dakota and one
also in Minnesota. The Minnesota
Congress was attended by the Right
Reverend Bishop McGolrick of Du-
luth while Right Reverend Bishop
O'Gorman of Sioux Falls, presided at
the South Dakota Congress. The lat
ter was held at Immaculate Concep-
ton Mission, Crow Creek, and repre-
scented 5000 Catholic Indians from
Rosebud, Pine Ridge, Lower Brule,
Grow Creek, Yankton, Sisseton,
Cheyenne River and Standing Rock.
They asked for catechists, one for the
Sisseton, another for the Grow Creek,
and a third for the Yankton Indians,

apart for weekday morning Mass. To
his family, if he has one depending on
him, he owes maintenance in the COM
forts due to their state of life: he
may not seriously risk l. : power of
fulfilling this obligation for the sake
of daily Mass. If he be without fam
lily or dependents whom he is bound
to maintain he owes it to himself not
to risk seriously or throw away his
means of livelihood for the sake of
daily Mass. Rarely, however, do cases
so extreme as these occur. If in a
given case it be lawful, in that case
it is advisable to go to daily Mass, and
this answers the third possible mean

PATTY.

The Catholic Foreign Mission Sem
mary at Maryknoll, near Ossining, N
Y, has received word from France of
a massacre in Thibet, in which another
alumnus of the Paris Seminary for
Foreign Missions was killed. The vic
tim this time was Reverend Theodore
Mongbeig, who was ordained priest
and left for the Far East in 1899, be
ing followed two years later by his
brother.
Thibet has long been known as an
impenetrable country although sec
tions have been visited and some few
Catholic missions established there.
Europeans are forbidden under pain
Of death to enter the interior, and the
Chinese, who are masters in fact if not
by right, allow this rule to be en-
forced in spite of many treaties. Near
ly every year massacres take place,
and occasionally, as in 1908 and 1910,
priest is one of the victims.
Father Mongbeig has just added an
other name to the long list in the
golden book of the Paris Seminary,
which distinguished Bishop has call
ed the Polytechnical School of Mar
tyrs.
The news was received in Europe
by telegram with few details. Father
Mongbeig was put to death, in com.
pany with two servants, by bandits.
The Chinese Government has express
ed sympathy to the French Consul and
to the priests ecclesiastical superior.

/. Should a Catholic having bust
ness allow his business and work to
wait until after Mass (about o'clock
on weekday mornings in order that
he may attend Mass? 2. Ordinarily
should a person postpone work in or
der that he may attend Mass, when
there is no obligation of hearing Mass?
i and 2. Your question may mean
Is the Catholic in question obliged to
act in the way indicated, and of course
the answer is that he is not, unless in
the case of a holy-day of obligation, or
when hearing of morning Mass is i'm
posed as a penance in confession. 1t
may mean: is such Catholic doing
right in neglecting his work and BUSH
ness for the sake of the morning Mass.
If he works for another and contracts
to give the time required for Mass to
the work, he is bound to, fulfil his
contract and is not free to regard the
time as his own unless the other party
gives express consent. The same holds
