Cecil Underwood.)

The autobiography of his conversion
to Catholicism published by Doctor
Albert Won Ruville-a work which he
calls Back to Holy Church"-was re-
'ceived with intense interest in the
reading circles of Germany and Eng
land, and the reception accorded to it
brings to mind the reception accorded
many years ago to Newman's
Apologize. For both volumes record
the stories of remarkable conversions
to the Catholic faith. It is true that
DR.. Albert Won Ruville does not bulk
SO large on the literary or ecclesias-
tical horizon as John Henry Newman;
nevertheless his conversion makes a
similar appeal to the educated and
thinking classes. Although the drama
tic conditions under which the Apollo
gia was written, are entirely absent
from the publication of this German
autobiography, yet some idea Of the
attractive nature Of the volume may
be cleaned from the fact that the

SUCCEEDS FATHER DORNEY
FATHER BURKE APPOINTED TO
ST. GABRIEL'S CHURCH,
CHICAGO.

Rev. Thomas M. Burke, pastor and
of ST. Veronicas parish, has
been appointed pastor Of st. Cab
riePs Church to succeed the late Rev.

ST. Ignatius College and entered st.
Mary's Seminary at Baltimore in
1887. He was ordained to the priest
hood by Right Reverend A. A. Cur
tbs on June Fl, 1892. He took an
advanced course of study at the Gre
gorian Univtrsity in Rome. He also

School at Jerusalem under the famous
Pere La Grange. He made a trip
around the world in 1905.
Upon his return to Chicago Father
Burke was appointed by Archbishop
Quigley to organize st. Veronica s
parish. He erected church and a
parochial school, and at the present
time the parish is one of the most
fiourishing in the city.

NEW DEVOTION TO OUR LADY
ENGLISH CATHOLIC WOMEN
PLEDGE THEMSELVES TO A
SERIES OF ACTS OF PIETY IN
HER HONOR.

A number of English Catholic la
dies, among whom are Lady Day and
Miss Janotha, the famous pianist,
have banded together to forward a
new devotion to Our Lady.
The ladies pledge themselves to a
series of acts of piety and charity in
honor of Our Lady. Commencing
with a Magnif1cat on waking, they
attend Mass and receive Communion,
say the Litany of Loretto at midday,
an extra Angelus and the Rosary in
the evening. In addition to this each
lady pledges herself to wear blue and
white on that day, and to sell sprigs
of white heather to her friends, the
proceeds to go to fund under the
patronage of Our Lady.
White heather is chosen as the
flower which grows nearest Heaven
in these ATTITUDES. The idea is a
pretty one for leisured women with
a Catholic circle of friends about
them.

NUMBER THEM BY 100000.

Of course, it was to be expected
that Sir Edward Carson, the buster
ing braggart of the Orangemen,
would be satisfied with no Home Rule
Bill which did not exclude Ulster per-
petually from it's provisions; but,
when he asserts that his bigoted fol-
lowers will resort to civil war, unless
their demand is granted, he is draw
ing the long bow.
Every Nationalist in Belfast and
Ulster knows that there never was a
greater game of bluff than the Ulster
Volunteer movement But that move
ment has impressed certain people in
high quarters in England, and that is
why the concessions are proposed.
They mean, if accepted, that the union
of all Ireland under Home Rule is to
be deferred for six years, and that,
meantime, there will be established
in Dublin an Irish Parliament with a
responsible Executive for twenty
eight out of the thirty-two Irish coun-
ties. Exclusion will be "Ulster's"
loss more CQaQ lr0lauu 3, anu MT. n0u-
mond was right when he told Sir Ed
ward Carson that the exclusionists
would live to regret their attitude of
today. There is no Irishman who
wants Home Rule to come amidst
strife, or to be the occasion of it.
Ireland wants peace. 1t is for "Ul-
ster" to say whether she is to have
it. The Nationalists of Ulster are
solid behind the Irish Party in this
matter, and they are the Nationalist
most concerned. Attempts will, no
doubt, be made to misrepresent the
situation, for the purposes of Irish
factionism. But they will fail. The
unity of the people and the Party will
be maintained because in that unity
is the surest hope for Ireland now and
in the future.

lation of the nine counties of Ulster
including the boroughs in each
divided according to Protestant and
Catholic.

RU7HEN|AN ORDINATION
FOUR LEVITES ELEVATED TO
THE PRIESTHOOD BY BISHOP
BUDKA AT HIS FIRST SACER-
DoTAL ORDINATION IN CANADA
-CEREMONY AT ST. HELEN'S
CHURCH, TORONTO.

A memorable ordination ceremony
took place at old ST. Helen's Church,
Toronto, on March %, when the Right
Reverend Bishop Budka, Ruthenian
Bishop of Canada, elevated to the
priesthood four Ruthenian levites who
had completed their theological studies
at st. Augustine's Seminary in that
city. There was large attendance of
clergy, both of the Latin and the
Greek rite, and great number of the
laity to witness the unusual ceremony.
The church in which the ordination
took place will soon be replaced by the
new ST. Josephat's which is being built
under the direction of Father Boyar-
czuk, who preached the sermon on
that occasion.
This ordination to the priesthood
was the first which Bishop Budka has
performed since his arrival in Canada
The four young men who received the
priestly power on that occasion will
labor among the Ruthenians in diff
ferent parts of Canada where the need
of Catholic priests is most pressing.

A Distinguished Author.
Doctor Albert Won Ruville, the son
of a General in the German Army was
born in 1855. His principal studies
were made in the University of Berlin
where he specialized in the depart
ment of history; having had for
teachers such noted men as Koser,
Marcks Bresslaw and Leuz. In 1905
he was made Professor of History in
the University of Halle-a position
still held by the distinguished con-
vert. He has published a number of
historical works, among them "The
Life and Times of William Pitt, Earl
of Chatham" "The Re-establishment
of the German Empire" "The History
of Bavaria" He is recognized through
out Europe not only as great his
torian and linguist, but likewise as
scholar of rich and varied attain
ments. His conversion to the Catholic
faith, therefore, created profound
impression.
The Story Of His Conversion.
AS he tells us in the opening pages
of his Autobiography, Won Ruville was
brought up in "the strictly orthodox
Protestant Faith" He passed through
all the phases of thought usual for the
Independent youthful mind" 'T be-

REGINA CATHEDRAL
REDEMPToRISTS TAKE CHARGE
OF PARISH ON INVITATION
OF BISHOP MATHIEU.

According to an official announce
ment given out last week the Redemp-
torist Fathers assumed pastoral
charge of the Cathedral of the Holy
Rosary, Regina, Sask., on last Sun
day. Three members of the Order
we're assigned to the parish which will
be under the direction of Father
Derling who was for a time located
at Yorkton, Sask
The Cathedral was opened for di-
vine service last autumn and during
the time of its construction and since
its dedication was in charge of Father
Giles. On his retirement from the
pastorate the Right Reverend Bishop
Matthew secured the services of the
Redemptorist Fathers under whose
care the parish has been placed. 1t is
believed that this arrangement is only
temporary.

PRAISE FOR M|NNESOTAN
PORTLAND PAYS TRIBUTE TO
MISS GLEASON, FORMERLY OF
MINNEAPOLIS, FOR HER INDUS
TRIAL INVESTIGATIONS IN THE
WEST.

when the members of the Wash
ington Industrial Welfare Commission
found that they were in need of ex-
pert assistance in the work of assem-.
bling into practical form the great
mass of facts that had been gathered
by its investigators, and in preparing
and writing it's report, they asked the
Industrial Welfare Commission of
Oregon to grant them the services of
Miss Caroline Gleason long enough
to perform this work. This request
was promptly and generously granted,
though it involved considerable sacri-
fee on the part of the Oregon Com
mission.
''The work done by this brilliant
young woman has elected the highest
praise, not only here, but in Wash
ington.
During her tour of the sister state
she investigated over sixty factories
and mercantile establishments within
two weeks. In some instances she
spent from two to three hours on a
single investigation. While there
were some disagreeable features in
the undertaking, Miss Gleason found
as general thing both employ
ers and employees anxious to facili-
tate her labors.
Miss Gleason, who is a graduate of
the University of Minnesota, has had
wide experience in the field in
which she is now engaged. In con-
nection with a course at the Chicago
School of Civics and Philanthropy and
in residence at Chicago Commons, she
came closely in touch with industrial
situations in that city. Through a
three months trip Of investigation of
establishments employing women in
all of the large cities on the eastern
coast and of housing opportunities
for women "adrift," she gained an in
sight into wage-earning women's
problems as they exist in the East.
when the Consumers League Of
Oregon decided to make a survey Of
women's wages, hours, conditions of
labor and cost of living in this state,
Miss Gleason was asked to take
charge of the investigation. The re-
port of this survey resulted in mini
mum wage legislation on this coast. -
Miss Caroline Gleason, referred to
in the foregoing, is a daughter of
John M. Gleason of Minneapolis and
a graduate of st. Clara College, Sim

about 100000.
It is calculated that p1ebiscite

flowers because this Mass, which was
formerly said during Holy Saturday
