in the end of June, 1885. 1t was
also about the end of the day, count
ing midnight at the end. The three
streets were full of people, all going
in hurry. l thought there was a
fire. Down home they never hurry
that late at night except to go to

My home there was in a ten-story
building on the corner ofLaFayette
Place and Great Jones street. 1t was
then one of the tallest structures in
the city.
The fourth of July reached New
York shortly after l did, and it was a
great treat to stand on top of that
tall building and watch the fireworks
displayed all over the city. Fire

very hard on that Glorious Fourth,

EFT says Butte is really wanted in the
Northwestern league regardless of
whether any other Montana city seeks
a membership in the circuit.
Leading fans and Mayor Lane
have expressed confidence that, with
Messrs. Blewett and Farr on the
ground TO explain the details of the
Northwestern leagues organization,
the entry of Butte was assured.
Blewett' says his visit was made
principally to get an early yes or no
from Butte, for the reason that a
schedule meeting must be held within
a very few weeks and that it's up to
Butte to speak out good and plain. As
the proposition stands now, according
to Mr.. Blewett Spokane and Butte, by
reason of their ideal relations as re-
CARDS railroads and time, can be con-

cult. The cities on the other end will
be Seattle. Tacoma, Vancouver and

AWAY FROM HOME.

To her neighbors she was only the
Widow Saunders, an ordinary old wom-
an, who having outlived husband and
children, dwelt alone in humble lit
tie cottage on the outskirts of the vii
lage, her sole means of support a gov
eminent pension, so small, as would
be considered by the average society
woman of today quite inadequate as
glove money.
Passing the little cot one day, it
occurred to me it would be an act of
kindness to call upon the lone &C.
cupant.
Mrs. Saunders welcomed me in the
most hospitable manner, and hustled
about preparing cup of tea, of which
she insisted I stood in immediate need
after my walk.
She was old, poor and uncultured;
the plain, somewhat rugged features
showed no trace of former youthful
comeliness: yet, somehow that deeply
lined face had beauty all it's own. 1t
fairly radiated peace. During our
conversation remarked that being en-
tirely without relatives, she must feel
very lonely at times.
Without relations?" she replied.
why, whatever give you that idea?
I've lots of relations, but you see
they're all at Home; 1 may stay on

A SAINT FOR THE WEEK.
ST. CLEMENT OF ROME.

st. Clement is said to have been a
convert of noble birth. The early
Fathers identified him with the
Clement whose name st. Paul de-
clares to the Philippians was written
in the Book of Life; and Tertullian
assures us that Clement was conse-
Grated bishop by st. Peter himself.
Be that as it may, it is certain that
he had seen the Apostles and con-
versed with them. With their divine
words still ringing in his ears, he be-
gan to rule the Church of God; and
thus he. was among the first, as he
was among the most illustrious, in the
long line of those who have held the
place and power of Peter. Clement
entered ON his high Office in evil days.
He lived at the same time and in the
same city Jas Domitian, the prosecutor
of the Church; and besides external
foes he had to contend with schism
and rebellion from within. The CORN
| THAN Church was torn by intestine
strife, and its members set the author
| ity of their clergy at defiance. 1t was
| then that ST. Clement interfered in the
plenitude of his apostolic authority,
and sent his famous epistle to the
Corinthians. He urged the duties of
charity, and above all of submission
| to the clergy. He did not speak in
vain; peace and order was restored.
st. Clement had done his work on
earth, and shortly after sealed with
his own blood the faith which he had
learned from Peter and taught to the
nations.
Would you learn how to venerate
the teaching of the Church and of the
Pope? Then look to the first days OF
the Church and to the disciples of the
| Apostles. Although the Corinthians
had sinned by schism and rebellion
they were appeaseds when once the
Pope had spoken, and they received
Clements letter almost as if it had
been inspired. Not long after the
middle of the second century, st
Dionysius tells us that in his time the
epistle of Clement was still read pub
licly from time to time in the Corinth
ian Church, as they also read another
letter recently received from one Of
ST. Clements successors; and lone
after we know that other Churches
showed like reverence to st. Clement
and his epistle.

TAsso's DEVOTION TO THE
BLESSED VIRGIN.

The great Italian poet, Tasso, was,
like Dante, profoundly devoted to the
Blessed Virgin, and sang her praises
in some of the most beautiful verses
ever written. 1t happened that he was
once journeying from Mantua to
Rome; and although weary and with.
out money, he having made vow to
Our Lady of Loretto, turned out of his
way to her shrine. He might have
Jared badly if it had not been for a
friend-one of the princes of the Con.
zaga-who happened to be visiting
Loretto at the same time, and who
ministered to the poets simple wants,
and enabled him to fulfil all the duties
of his pilgrimage. That done, and
body and soul refreshed, Tasso wrote
an immortal canticle in honor of Our
Lady, and then proceeded on his way
to Rome.
When the poet was about to die, he
called young Rubens, son of the great
painter, to his bedside.
Il once gave your father a little
silver statue of the Blessed Virgin, I"
he said with much difficulty.
And l have it with me now" ex-
claimed Rubens.
A look of happiness came into the
face of the dying man, and he held
out his hand into which the young
man reverently placed the precious
little statue.

Take it back when / am Dead
whispered Tasso And then, clasping
the sacred image tightly in the hands
which were fast growing cold, he
prayed fervently until the end came.
Young Rubens was profoundly af.
fected by the scene, and While the
body of his fathers friend was being
borne to its last resting place, he,
instead of occupying an honorable
position in the procession of mourn
ers. which followed it, was PROSTATE

THE CATHOLIC CONVERT AND
HIS BIBLE.

The Protestant who has always been
close reader of his Bible, on becom-
ing converted to the Catholic faith, is
not likely to lose his interest in the
Holy Scriptures; indeed, he is more
disposed to lay stronger hold upon
them, for now he sees light irradiat-
ing their pages that he never saw be-
fore, clearer meaning is given them,
and a reasonable and authoritative in
depreciation satisfies his desire to es-
cape the negations of Professionalism
and to know the truth. He finds that
the Church looks upon. the Bible as
the inspired word of God.
Though intended to prove rather
than preach the doctrine of Christ,
the Bible, by having the Church for
it's exponent, does both. 1t may be
stated that in the history of legisla-
ton there is no record where any law,
no matter how explicit, has been able
to enforce itself by itself. The Bible
is no exception. Taken alone, the
Bible would be as helpless in the con-
version of nation as dumb prophet
would be in the preaching of the
Gospel. Christ did not found his
Church on the Bible, but on living
personality; for He knew that law,
to be applicable to all needs, and at
all times, must reside in living or
ganism with living voice. Up to the
sixth year after Our Lords Ascension,
when st. Matthew's Gospel was first
written, the Church was the sole me-
dunn of Christianity. Confident of it's
authenticity, the Church uses the
Bible as a Judge does written code
of law. She interprets it in the light
of the scholarship, learning, teaching
and traditional belief of twenty CEN
turtles. She accounts the reader her
pupil, the Bible her textbook, and her
self the teacher.
The convert used to believe that the
Catholic Church forbade the Bible to
be read by the laity, and this prohibi
ton is one of the first things he seeks
to have cleared up as he enters upon
an investigation of the Church's
claims. What he finds is that should
ever the Bible fall into other hands
and be shorn of her commentary, she
forbids it as such, to be read by the
laity. This was the stand she took in
the Councils of Toulouse 1229) and
Taragona (1234, when the Albigenses
made a spurious translation of the
Bible into the vernacular. Duly an
notated, the Church strongly recon-
mends the New Testament to be read
by young and old. She goes so fa1
as to bestow a special indulgence upon
Eall who devote one half-hour each day
to the reading of the Scriptures. Re
garding the Old Testament, however
she makes some discrimination. AS
the Jewish Church counselled it's ad
herents against the reading of the
Songs of Solomon till they reached
the age of forty, in somewhat the
same spirit the Church disapproves OF
the reading of those and certain other
parts of the Old Testament by the
young and the foolish. She judges
that the revolving sins of the Jews
laid bare in some of the pages of the
Old Testament were never intended
to. be read by the ignorant and the
callow In this sense Pope Clement
XI condemned the proposition, "The
reading of the Scripture is for ALL
