human life? 1t is rebellion against
God, rebellion against authority in the
highest and in the lowest places This
is an age of irreligion and contempt
of the majesty of God. In the wide
spread lawlessness of the day, the ma
tions are gathering up the results Of
their own indifference towards the AL
mighty. God set aside, everything Of
this kind is quite logical If He is
not reverenced, why reverence kings
and queens? The nations themselves
are not without blame in that they do
| little, if anything, to encourage relig-
ion, and they are reaping the fruit Of
their Indifference to God, Who allows
the world to proceed on it's own way,
SO as to make it understand how
things happen where respect for re-
ligion is wanting.
Too much liberty is allowed the
actors in these tragedies, especially
| in the case of those who by word and
pen attack law and order in every
form. 1t is not kings and presidents
alone who are assailed. 1t is the AL
mighty God Who is hidden to cease to
reign. In the ranks of anarchy we
find contempt of religion because re-
ligion means submission in the name
of God to law and order 1t is be-
cause God is not known that these at
tacks are made against rulers.
The Archbishop then referred to
Austria as the one Empire in which
ch to1z ~ =,
terest. 1t is, and has been, Catho-
lie power. Here and there in it's
eyentful career false steps have been
made, but, on the whole, it's fidelity
to the highest ideals has been praise
worthy. One fact alone stands out
in bold relief to challenge our admira-
ton. Austria was the bulwark against
the onward march of Islamism, which
threatened Europe and Christianity
and whose victorious progress was
halted at the very gates of Vienna
when the troops under Sobieski won
decisive victory over the Mohamme-
dan hordes. In our day it is Austria's
role to keep peace among the various
races that go to make up her great
empire and which, if allowed to war
against one another, would disturb the
peace of Europe. The safety of the
Austrian Empire has been jeopardized
by the assassination of the heir to the
throne, to whom the people looked for
continuation of the policy which has
made the reign of the aged emperor,
Francis Joseph, most notable epoch
in the history of the country.
The death of Archduke Ferdinand
is a distinct loss to the Catholic
Church as well as to Austria He was
a gifted statesman, leader who en-
joyed the esteem and confidence of
the people; but above all he was a
loyal, uncompromising Catholic who
openly professed and fearlessly prac-
ticed his religion.
In conclusion the Archbishop in
voked the prayers of the faithful for
the happy repose of the souls of the
Archduke and his consort.

ANCIENT MONAs Terry
THIRTEENTH CEN
TENARY OF FOUNDATION -
PROPERTY OF SWISS BENEDIc-
TINE CONGREGATION.

The celebrated Benedictine Abbey
of Disentis, in the Diocese of Coire,
Switzerland, is about to keep the thir-
teenth centenary of its foundation.
The fetes commemorative of the
unique event will be very splendid.
The abbey was founded in GA by st.
Sigisbert, a compatriot and disciple
of ST. COLUMBIA, around a hermitage
in the valley of the Upper Rhine. 1t
remained Independent till 1902, when
the Council of Trent attached it to
other abbeys to form the Swiss con-
gregation
During these centuries the monas-
terry has passed through many vicis-
situdes, but has weathered every
storm In later times political revo-
lutions and several fires so ruined it
that in 1880 the community was re.
duced to four fathers and two
brothers. 1t has taken on new lease
of life, however, and today forty
monks occupy the buildings and carry
on the good work of so many genera
tions. This work consists in cu1tivat,
ing the soil, instructing the people
educating the young and assisting the
poor and distressed, patriotic service

BISHOP CARROLL's BUSY WEEK
DEDICATED SIX CHURCHES IN
HELENA DIOCESE AND CON-
FIRMED EIGHT TiMES-VISITED
NEW BELGIAN COLONY.

This was an unusually busy week
for the Right Reverend Bishop Carroll
of Helena. He visited eight new par
ishes in Teton County and gave con-
firmation in all of them. Seven of
the churches are new and six were
dedicated by him. They are located
at Cutbank, Shelby, Collins, Waller,
Bynum and in the new Belgian colony,
near Waller. This colony was estab-
lished last year by Mgr. Day, V. G.,
who brought eighty-fve families from
Belgium and located them near Valier.
So successful were they, that many of
their fellow countrymen have joined
them and helped to erect the new
church, which the Bishop formally
blessed last Wednesday. After the
services the farmers were presented
to Bishop Carroll and he spent some
time visiting the settlement

CHINESE BISHOP
FIRST AND ONLY CHiNAMAN CON-
SECRATED A BiSHoP-RULED
NORTHERN PORTION OF CHINA.

1t is interesting to learn that China
was represented in the Catholic epis-
copacy as early as 1855. The first, and
as yet the only, Chinaman to be raised
to the episcopacy was Gregory Lopez.
He was born in 1919 at Fokien, be-
came a convert of the Dominicans,
studied at their college in Manila, and
later Joined the Order. After his or
dination in 1884 he returned with a
party of his colleagues to work for the
conversion of his countrymen, and
his labors were most fruitful. Pope
Clement x, in 1865, appointed him
Bishop of the northern portion of
China. He fulfilled his duties with
the utmost exactitude, anl so highly
did the Holy See approve of his con-
duct that he was granted the priyi-
lege of choosing his successor.

care of the Apostolic See that the ap-

The following important decree,
whereby the Holy Father grants spe-
cial fayors of a spiritual kind to those
of the faithful who are members of
temperance and total abstinence soci-
eties has just been issued by the Holy
Office:
Our Most Holy Lord Plus X, by
the providence of God. Pope, at an
audience granted to the Most Rev,
Assessor of the Holy Office on Thurs
day, the 21st May, 1914, being moved
by the desire to manifest his good
will towards societies designed to pro-
mote temperance in or abstinence
from Intoxicating drink, and to
strengthen members in their salutary
purpose, graciously decided to open
up by Apostolic authority the treasury
of the Church, and has been good
enough to grant the following Indul.

they have been canonieally erected by
the Most Rev. Ordinaries or may after

PEACE UN ION
APPEALS TO PRIEST
SENDS PAPAL ALLOCUTlON TO
CLERGY OF THE UNITED
STATES AND CANADA.

The Church Peace Union, founded in
endowment of $2,000,000, will begin it's
educational activities in behalf of dis
armament and arbitration among the
Catholic clergy by sending each of the
$4,000 priests of the United States and
Canada a copy of the allocution of
Pope Plus, delivered in May, when
thirteen new Cardinals we're created.
The allocution, which is one of the
most important of Papal documents,
was regarded in peace circles as re-
markable for it's strong expressions on
the subject of international peace. The
Pope's references to 'men Of distinc-
tion and force planning schemes for
preventing the calamities of war and
for insuring the blessings of peace"
were the subject of speculation in
Rome.
The plan to distribute the allocution
to priests was worked out by DR.. Fred
erick Lynch, secretary of the Carnegie
Union, and Dr.. James ]. Walsh, the
well-known physician and writer on
Catholic subjects.
DR.. Walsh pointed out that each of
the Popes of the thirteenth century,
Pope Innocent Ill, Honorius III. and
Alexander Ill, had developed the idea
of international arbitration in their
day. DR.. Walsh is one of the three
Catholics on the board of twenty-eight
trustees of the Carnegie Union.
DR.. Lynch announced that the letter
on international peace sent by Pope
Plus to the then Apostolic Delegate
at Washington in September, 1911, an
address of Cardinal Gibbons, who is
one of the trustees of the union, as
we'll as the writings of Mgr. Giesswein
and the late Cardinal Kopp, noted Ger.
man Catholics in the peace movement
would also be sent to American and
| Canadian priests.

A MASSIVE STRUCTURE, 3s5 FEET
LONG AND 212 FEET WIDE
COST NEARLY s3,ooo,ooo.

The magnificent new Cathedral of
ST. Louis, Mo-, is one of the greatest
modern examples of ecclesiastical
architecture; it is also one of the bold
est achievements in reinforced con-
crete construction ever attempted
The massive structure, when com
pleted, will be one of the largest and
finest cathedrals not only in this coun-
try, but in the world. 1t is a modern
expression of the Byzantine type of
architecture, and contains many fea-
lures which are entirely new in this
type of construction
The most pronounced feature is the
massive dome Of reinforced concrete
construction, which towers to a height
of 227 feet to the cross, and is 10
feet in its outside diameter. The en-
tire cathedral, including it's apse, is
365 feet long by 212 feet wide, and
when completed will have cost some
thing like $3,O00,00O. The interior is
to be entirely covered by mosaics.-

Gospels, that Christ stood for definite
ness in religion, that He himself died
rather than tolerate the religious ideas
of most of His contemporaries, and
that He earnestly urged His followers
to initiate the steadfastness of His
example. He prayed, it is true, that
all the world might become united; ;
but He must have meant united on
the positive and definite platform on
which He himself stood. Any other
Interpretation would stultify, not
merely His words, but His whole life.
To Christ, apparently, the most i'm
portant thing about man was his
philosophy of life in all it's relations,
in short, his religion. To us, that
seems to be the least important thing
about a man. Our attitude implies
that one way of locking at God, man,
and the universe is as good as
another, for the simple reason that
none of them matters very much any
way.
Tolerance, a Denial of Objective Re-
Iioious Truth.
Our present efforts to be tolerant in
religion, then, are based upon the pre-
suppCsition that there is no such thing
as objective religious truth. This is
to say that in the thing which for a
human being must corre1ate all his
other thought and actiyity,-namely
his theory of life, his religion,--there
is no objective reality at all, toward
which he may approximate. This is
to deny that there is anything which
may rightly be called fundamental
truth. 1t is to exalt peace at any price
into the throne of ultimate reality. 1t
is to destroy the search for that
reality. 1t is to glorify intellectual
cowardice and inefficiency 1t is not
merely to destroy a rational basis fo1
morals; it is, in the end, to destroy
rational basis for thinking as q
whole
One hears constantly that people
are not interested today in systems oi
religion which are not all-inclusive
which are in any way devisive. If thai
be true, it is a sad period for religion
or for thought in general, that lies be
fore us. To prohibit men from at
tempting to lift themselves up toward
the realities of eternity, to compe
them to abandon the mighty groupings
which have ever characterized The

CATHOLIC LOSSES IN SALEM
FRENCH CHURCH AND SCHOOL
DEsTRoYED-PRIEsT HERO
OF THE FIRE. !

Press reports of the confagration
which destroyed nearly half the old
city of Salem, Mass, on June 25, in
clude in the list of buildings burned
st. Joseph's (French) Church, a huge
new brick structure with lofty twin
towers and the adjoining school and
convent recently erected at a cost of
$3.50, 900.
A priest, the Rev. j. j. Cronin, was
one of the heroes Of the fire. While
a score of Sisters of Charity (Grey
Nuns) knelt praying in the City Or
phan Asylum and hundreds of children
or inyalids were gazing heIpIessly at
the flames approaching from three
sides, he fought his way to the shore,
found boats and successfully led all
of the charges to them, and they were

country are also in attendance.
The entire buildings of the Univer-
sity have been thrown open for the
accommodation of the Sisters, who

of instruction. The faculty of the Gel
lege, with few exceptions, are all reg
ular members of the University staff.
One hundred and forty-two students

second annual session of the Creighton
University summer school began. OF
the total, 120 are members of religious
orders, who have come to the school

Twenty-nine different courses are

The Catholic University of Santiago,

In an article in the Atlantic
Monthly" for July, Bernard Iddings
Bell declares that tolerance of every
sort of belief is due to popular
sense of uncertainty as to truth; that
it marks a decay of old standards
rather than the formation of new
ones; and that it is followed by a
period of intolerance and intellectual
strife often accompanied by physical
strife.
Men forget that just as there have
been periods of tolerance and intol-
erance in every field of human
thought, so also there have been
similar cycles in the domain of relig-
ious beliefs.
One can see this, he says, in the
very popular campaigns on foot max
ing for what is called Church Unity.
Everywhere in Christendom one hears
nowadays such cries as this: Let us
all get together. Let us forget the
things which divide us, and think
only of that which unites u.s." What
it is that unites us, one notices, is
never defined. Let the Baptists and
the Methodists and the Episcopalians
and the Lutherans and the Roman
Catholics and the Unitarians and all
the others simply agree to love one
another, and forget their differ
ences." We see many sorts of min.
listers, in their desire to promote what
| they believe to be the unity desired
by their Master, Christ, exchanging
pulpits with one another and passing
genial compliments about one an.
others superlatiye worth. There is a
tremendous deal of good feeling and
every one is very happy; and behold
the millenniaI unity of all men, fol
which Christ prayed on the night OF
his betrayal, is at hand!
Christ Stood for Definiteness in Re-
Iieion.
Is it? If this was the sort of thing
Christ wanted, why did He not prac
! tice this modern, tolerant method
when He was on earth? Why did He
not seek to conciliate, on basis Of
mutual toleration, the Sadducees anC
Pharisees, for instance, instead of de
nouncing them both for differing from
His own conception of religion? Why
did He preach things so definite a:
to ALLEVIATE most of the people whom
4 He came to earth to save? Why dit
i He die? Apparently it was because
5. He uttered such definite and positiv,
teachings as to force, by His very in
tolerance, the reflex intolerance o
those opposed to that teaching. 1t il
lapparent to any one who reads th,
