DIOCESE OF LEAD.

ST. Martins Academy, Sturgis, South
Dakota: The Benedictine Sisters an
nual retreat at Sturgis, S. D., closed
on July 9th. The retreat was conduct
ed by Rev. j. Theis, S. j., of Prairie
du Chen, Wis. At the close of the
retreat two candidates received the
white veil, and four Sisters made per-
petual vows. Solemn High Mass was
celebrated by the Very Rev. r. DUDE,
Administrator of the Diocese of Lead.
He was assisted by Rev. ]. Gosslein,
Of Deadwood, as deacon, and Rev. j.
Theis as sub-deacon. Rev. P. Column
ban, o. S. B., of Sturgis, was Master
of Ceremonies. After the giving of
the holy habits and the solemnizing of
perpetual vows according to the i'm
pressive Benedictine ceremonial, the
sermon was preached by Rev. Father
Theis. He spoke first to the people
outside the community, telling them
that in the days of st. Ambrose, when
ne preached his wonderful sermons on
virginity, mothers had to shut their
daughters in their rooms to keep them
from running after the Heavenly
Bridegroom, Jesus Christ But it is
too sad that in our days no such spirit
prevails. Those who leave the world
to follow the Saviour are all too few.
1t is because a great spirit of worldli-
ness prevails everywhere. He advised
parents to bring their children up to
know the riches of the kingdom of
heaven He then spoke to the Sisters
who had completed their holocaust by
giving themselves wholly to God. He
said that the vow of poverty left them
free, the VOW of chastity left them to
give their affections to God alone, and
that the vow of obedience was the
most important of all. This is the
prime virtue which if practiced per-
fectly will be certain to lead to sane
LITIGATION. He gave many more sub
lime ideas in impressive and beautiful
language and closed his sermon with
q blessing for all.
Those who received the holy habit
were Miss Rose Elliott of Benton, Wis,
and Miss Helen Mates, of Chicago,
III. Those who made perpetual vows
were: Sister Mary Patricia Luby, of
County Limerick, Sister Mary Boni-
face, Prendergast, of County Mayo,
Sister Mary Mildreda Dooley, of Coun-
ty Galway; and Sister Mary Hilda
Sheehan, of County Cork, Ireland

The HOLY STROUD
THE CAMERA AFFORDS FURTHER
PROOF or ACCURACY or
CATHOLIC LEGEND.

At lantern lecture given by Rev.
J. O'Connor, rector of st. Patrick's
Church, Heckmondiyike, England, not
long ago, the legend of the Holy
Shroud was the subject treated. Fa-
Their O'Connor described the history
of the Holy Shroud until it reached
Turin, where it has remained since
1884, and contended strongly for the
authenticity of the relic.
In 190S,'' said the lecturer, "the
shroud was photographed at Turin,
the exposures ranging from snap
shot to forty-fye minutes. None of
the negatives contradicted each other
but perfect marvel, unknown to past
ages, stood out. The negatives show
ed the modelling of the body and the
features and expression of the face
with such clearness that science stood
amazed, and now this black and tat
tered document could be read and
understood as never before.
THE back of the Body which the
shroud has wrapped bore hundreds Of
black confused wounds produced by a
scourge which consisted of, say, a
two-foot handle and two or three
short thongs loaded at the end with
a double button of iron or brass, like
little dumb bell. These marks are
found from the calf of the leg to the
shoulders, but they did not appear on
the more fieshy places, as the scourge
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1915-07-17

there could not cut to the bone. What
forger could have remembered that?
The French Doctor of Science who
conducted the investigation so min
utely was able to give the exact size
of the metal buttons of the scourges
as we'll as their exact shape, and
forthwith the caretaker of the Naples
Museum sent him word that they had,
from the ruins of Pompeii, exactly
such an instrument of torture as he
described. What forger of 1850 or
1853 could have been so accurate?
'The shroud contradicts all the con-
ventions of one age or another The
hands were nailed not through the
palms, but through the wrists. The
point of the nail came through the
foot just in front of the heel. Every
surgeon knows why, but how did a
forger think of this? And lastly, the
crown of thorns passed round the
head just over the ears, and almost
beneath the base of the skull A for
ger would have played up to popular
notions. So, with infinite patience
and a grip like steel trap, the
French scientist, NJ Paul Vignon,
reasons out his theme, leaving until
the last a thunderclap of surprise:
But all these marks would have been
obliterated by modification. There
fore, that Body never decayed in this
shroud!'"

IA NJ D U S RELICS
IN THE CHURCH OF ST. MARIA
DELLA SCALA. ii

The Church of st. Maria della
Scala, Rome, was constructed in 1892
and entrusted to the Carmelites, who
still hold it. A Cardinals title was
transferred to it, which is held at
present by His Eminence, Cardinal
Gotti, Project of Propaganda. The
Church take it's name from picture
of the Blessed Virgin, painted over
the stairs of house in Trastevere,
and concerning which many miracles
were related; it was afterwards
brought to this Church.
Over the door is statue of Our
Lady and the Child, by Valloni. The
interior has a single nave. The high
altar is from plans by Rainaldi. The
tabernacle is ornamented with pre-
cious stones and with sixteen small
columns of Oriental jaspar.
The statues of st. Joseph and of St
Theresa over the choir door are at.
tributed to Bernini. In the first
chapel to the right is the very fine
painting of the Beheading of st. John
the Baptist, by Gherardo della Motto
The foot of st. Theresa is here pre-
served with great veneration, also q
piece of the altar of the Presentation
the head of one of the Ursuline mar
tyrs, and some of the relics of the
three Wise Kings, Gaspar, Balthasal
and Melchior.

CHURCH OF ST. PANCRAs
ERECTED IN FOURTH CENTURY
TO NOBLE YOUTH A MARTYR.

The Church of st. Pancras is out
side of Porta ST. Pancrazio, off the
vicolo della Nocetta, Rome, past the
entrance to Villa Doria Pamphili. 1t
was erected probably in the fourth
century to the noble Phrygian youth,
who came to Rome under Diocletian
and received the palm of martyrdom
at the early age of fourteen.
1t was reconstructed about 5O5 by
st. Symmachus and dedicated to st.
Pancras, martyr, st. Pancras, Bishop
of Taormina and st. Victor, martyr,
whose bodies are under the high altar.
It was several times restored, last in
1873 by the discalced Carmelites, to
whom it was confided by Alexander
VII. Towards the end of the eigh-
teenth century it was abandoned for
several years, so that it almost fell
into ruins 1t was again restored
after 1916, but little remains of its
antiquities except the precious relics
under the high altar.
In the adjoining catacombs of St
Pancras, or cemetery of Calepodius,
so frequently mentioned in the acts OF
the martyrs, great depredations have
likewise been made, and the principal
marbles and inscriptions carried
away.

THE MISSION BELLS
ROMANCE OF CALIFORNIA; COL.
DEN AGE cLINes TO THEM.

To us of today, some of the ro-
nance of the golden age of California
clusters around the Mission bells and
fingers in the Outlines half-dilapi-
dated belfries of the old Mission es-
Establishment. We have all seen or
heard of the beautifully plain and
solid San Gabriel companile, typical
Franciscan structure, with its sweet
toned, venerable bells. 1t was the
memory of the music of the Angelus
bell that caused Bret Harte to write
those well-knoWn lines:
20 solemn bells! whose consecrated
Masses
Recall the faith of old;
10 tinkling bellsi that lulled with twi-
light music,
The spiritual fold"
Every resident of this Golden State
and every traveller through this land
of brightest dreams is familiar with
the way-side bells hung from iron
posts that mark the ancient trail, "El
Canine Real" the royal road, that
stretched from San Diego's Harbor of
the Sun to Sonoma's valley of the
Seven Moons, a distance of seven
hundred miles, says writer in the
Los Angeles Tidings. The Mission
bells have always been a perennial
source of inspiration both to bard and
painter; and their Ginning voices have
been the subject of song and story
for many year.
At the founding of the Missions, the
good Padres used to raise the Cross,
hang the bell usually from a limb Of
an oak-tree, build an altar, and I'M
fur1 the royal standard. Perhaps the
most striking picture Of California Is
