PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. 21.-r"All

place God has assigned to them and 30
their sen" was the opening thought in
Billy Sundays three sermons TO women
exclusively, which marked one of the
most interesting days of the eyangclists
soiourn in Philadelphia.
"1hc virtue Of womanhood is the ram
part wall of civilization" was the sum-
ming up of his discourse; "Whcn you
break that down." he continued, "you
can pave the way to hell with the
stones"
The tabernacle was filled TO its utter
most capacity at the morning service.
The doors were opened at q O'Clock an;l
by G30. 300 women had taken their
places within the great building. The
first sermon was preached at 1890, after
which thirty converts hit the trail
while the auditorium was cleared as rap
idly as possible to admit the crowds ot
women waiting ON the outside ready 10
burst into the place as soon as the
doors were rcopened.
At the second session there were 20l
converts. from an audieuce only slightly
larger than the first. The women at the
morning service were older, drawn from
q poorer. more pathetic class of humane
ty. while in the afternoon there was
more vitality and spring in the audi
cncc, fact which had its effect upon
the speaker. Billy was brighter anc
more entertaining on the second hear
ing.
The tabernacle opened its doors aguu
at o'clock in preparation for the even

Trade Union EduCates Members

The International Ladies' Garment
Workers Union, the third largest Or
ganization in the ranks Of organized
labor in this country, has instituted a
most interesting experiment in the
city of New York this year. One hun
dred of its members are being given a
course in economics and labor history,
at the expense of the union, at the
Rand School Of Social Science, which
has been engaged in this work for
more than eight years. The course
includes such subjects as an outline
of the History of the Labor Movement
with special reference to the garment
industry; labor politics, labor legisla-
ton and workmen's insurance, the le-
gal rights Of trade unions, practical
problems and methods Of union activ-
ity, both in time of strike and in time
of industrial peace. The course is
the result Of a movement initiated at
the convention of the international
in Cleveland last June.
The school in which this course is
being conducted is the well-known So
cialist institution, founded by Mrs.
Rand, the mother-in-law of George
Heron, the Socialist writer and form
er minister, who contracted with Mrs.
Rand's daughter the widely comment

cumstances can easily be seen.
There will. no doubt, be some who
will be disposed to severely criticize
the Union for sending it's members to
Socialist school. And yet, the idea
which they have adopted is in itself
good one. Its aim is to fit the rank
and file for an intelligent participa-
tion in trade UNION activity. The
reason for the choice of Socialist in

Social Science is the only educational

apparent from this one example.

HISTORY OF ANrl.cATHoLlc PREJUDICE

umnies of Maria Monk lay in the
Hotel Dieu," a convent of Montreal.
The interruptions preacher who
wrote the book made the unfortunate
woman represent herself as an es-
capped nun and charged the other nuns
with immortality, cruelty and murder.
The disclosures were greedily re-
ceived and read more widely than any
thing before published in this country.
The book was denounced as base
imposture by all the, press of Mont
real, by nearly all the press of New
York, by the respectable Protestant
ministers, but the sale continued, and
1t was only after several editions had
been sold and the money pocketed by
the preachers, Bourne, Brownlee and
slocum, and after they and their part
ners had gone through several suits
in the courts about the division of the
spoils, that the Rev. William C..
Brownlee, the main champion of the
book, came out in the Protestant Vim:
dicator and cody acknowledged that
the whole story was forgery. But:
there was money in forgery and cal.
umny against Catholics. The Maria;
Monk speculation was so profitable,
that several rival sets of lawful dis
closures" were Immediately invented.
Another Immaculate lady named
Frances Partridge came forward; she
declared that Maria Monk was bad
woman, an imposter, who had usurped
her name and that she was the real
Maria Monk. The preachers who had
discovered and brought out the origin
al awful disclosures tried other awful
disclosures, and their former patrons
were growing suspicious, and maybe
little ashamed, and the ventures
failed. Finally a renegade priest
named Smith thought that he could
Guido all the preachers, ex.nuns and
other ex-priests in filth and obsenity,
but his book, Rosamond Culbertson,
did not sell. The market was glutted
with anti-Catholic obscenity, and the
apostles of bigotry soon realized
that some new theme must be started
before the war on the church could
be continued with success.
Anyone who studies the political
schemes of to-day and has watched
the anti-Catholic movements in
Pittsburg and other parts Of the coun.
try recognizes the malice and tactics
of bygone days in our twelfth century
defamers Of converts and calumnia-
tors of Catholics. What Archbishop
Spalding wrote of the decade, 1880 to
1910. is literally true Of 1913:
"The old Church, has been attacked

ual preachers, attacked by whole
synods assembled; a regular conspir-
acy has been organized thruout the
union to vilify and abuse her; timer.
ant lecturers, expriests, ex-nuns. have
been employed to traverse the country
to preach her down; itinerant mounte-
banks have been salaried to distribute
among the people obscene or. inflam-
matory tracts against her; and yet she
bravely stands her ground; she seems
to bear charmed life, and even to
flourish under the lash of persecution"
