SPANISH CONFRA1ERNI7Y
FORMED IN MADRID FOR DE-
TENSE OF THE CHURCH AND
HER RIGHTS NOV MENT
BLESSED BY THE POPE.

A new religious confraternity of
Spanish mobiles has just been formed
with headquarters at Madrid. The
inaugural ceremony took place in the
Church of San Francisco, in the CAPT
tai. The confraternity is called the
knights of Our Lady of the Pillar and
San Francesca da Borja." The OBJ
iects are the defense of the Church,
of her rights and of her privileges,
the promotion of Catholic social ac-
ton, and the personal sanctifcation
of the members. There are certain
daily prayers to be said and regular
meetings to be held There is al
ready a large membership amongst
the grandees of Spain. The knights
will also take up a movement which is
popular in Spain and which has just
been blessed by the Pope-the en-
thronement of the Sacred Heart in the
homes of the people. The houses are
dedicated to the Sacred Heart of
Jesus, and everywhere picture of the
Divine Heart is to be found All the
schools of Spain are already so dedi-
Gated A family festival is made Of

churchs dedicated to Holy Mary, and a
church to the east of the sepulchre,
on the site of the crucifixion, called
the Church of Golgotha.
In the year GA the Persian King
Khosroes III captured the city, des-
troyed the edifice, and carried away
portion of the True Cross which was
treasured there. The Christian wife
of the Emperor saved the most sacred
OF relics from destruction, and the
Abbot Modestus obtained permission
to build the church, which he did with
the aid of collections in other parts
OF the world and the special assistance
Of the Patriarch Of Alexandria.
In 1929 the Christian Emperor Hera-
clius entered the city in triumph,
bringing the recovered cross with him,
and proceeded in humble guise to
adore atithe Sayiour's tomb.
Seven years afterwards the Holy
City fell into the hands Of the Moslem.
They at first respected the most
sacred of edifices, but in the tenth and
eleventh centuries the fanatical
Caliphs of the Fatimite sect, and after
them their Turkish conquerors, again
and again did injury to the holy
shrines, and finally, went as far. as to
attempt, though unsuccessfully, to
destroy the rock itself in which the
Holy Sepulchre is hewn. But the
Christians always restored, as soon as
they could, whatever had been mutt
lot do
Crusaders, burning with holy indigna-
ton at these successive outrages,
overran Palestine and captured Jeru-
salem, they rebuilt the Church of the
Resurrection on larger scale, extend
ing it so as to include Mount Calvary.
1t was again damaged when the Sui
tan took the city in 1887 and 1914, but
it remained in very much the same
condition as it was in the time of the
Crusaders until 1903, when, through
the fault Of the Armenian sectaries il
was burned to the ground, with the
exception only of the eastern end,
some distance away from the sepul-
chre.
In order to rebuild it, it was neces-
sary to obtain firman, or written per-
mission from the Sultan, and the
Greek schismatics, by their intrigues
at Constantinople, obtained possession
of the whole edifice except one or two
small chapels. The rebuilding was
done by a Greek architect, in a very
unsightly manner, and while it was
going on the tombs of the Crusaders,
Godfrey de Bouillon and his brother,
Baldwin, were removed.
From this history it will be seen
that the church, which is a memorial
of the death and resurrection of Our
Lord has passed through many vicissi-
tudes during the course Of the varied
centuries, a fact which only endows
it with an additional interest. 1t may
we'll be called the chief treasure of
Jerusalem.

MGR. LEES JUBILEE
SCION OF DISTINGUISHED FAMILY
is FIFTY YEARS A PRIEST
HONORED BY PRESENCE OF
CARDINAL GIBBONS AND APos-
TOLlC DELEGATE.

One of the most impressive cere-
monies ever seen in the national
capital was held on May in st. Mat
thew's Church, when the Right Rev.
Monsignor Thomas S. Lee celebrated
the golden jubilee OF his ordination.
A Solemn High Mass was sung by
MonsignOr Lee and Bishop Donahue
of Wheeling preached the sermon.
His Eminence Cardinal Gibbons and
the Most Rev. John Bonzano, Apos-
tolic Delegate, occupied thrones in
the sanctuary.
MOnsi2nOr Lee is direct descend
ant of Colonel Richard Lee, who came
to Virginia in. the reign of Charles L.
in or before 1912; on August 10, 1912,
he received a grant Of 1000 acres of
land. There are two old branches of
the Lee famify-One in Maryland and
one in Virgnia-the former founded
in 1900, when Philip Lee came from
Virginia to Maryland to settle, and it
is Of this branch that Monsignor Lee
comes His father was the youngest
son of Governor Lee of Maryland, and
his mother was Miss Carroll, grand
daughter of Charles Carroll of Carroll
ton, one of the signers of the Declara-
ton Of Independence.
MOnsignor Lee is native of Balti
more, where he was born on January
8, 1912, and was ordained priest on
May 8, 1866, by MOnsignor Castlelacci
VillanOva, Vicegerant OF Rome, in his
private chapel near San Andrea Della
Vale, and at the present time Mon
si9nor Lee is the only living member
Of his class.
His first assignment was on Septem-
Der %, 1866, at ST. Vincent de Pauls
Church, Baltimore, where he remained
until September ~, 1862 when he
went to the Cathedral as secretary to
Archbishop Spalding, succeeding Car
dinal Gibbons, who was consecrated
Bishop and named Vicar Apostolic of
North Carolina. In September, 1878,
he was appointed rector of the Cathe-
dral, Baltimore, and in 1891 he came
to st. Matthew'S, Washington, as pas
tor. On August IL, 1908, Pope Plus
X made him a Domestic Prelate

UNIVERSITY ENDOWMENT
UNIQUE PLAN FOLLOWED BY
GRADUATES OF CREIGHTON
UNIVERSITY TO AID Err
ALMA MATER.

The class of 1916 of Creighton Uni
versity, Omaha, Neb., made substan-
tial and unique gift to their alma
mater in the occasion of their gradua-
tion. The gift is in the form of 20
life insurance policies for $1,000 each,
written in favor of the university. The
premium is to be paid annually by
the members of the class of las
graduates for twenty years. When
the endowment policies mature the
university will have $4,000 to devote
to educational purposes.
The plan originated last year with
Father McMenamy, S. j., when the
graduates of the arts department
wished to present some gift to the
university. He suggested an endow-
ment life insurance policy as suitable
class present. The gift was made and
the idea was taken up this year by the
graduates in all the department with
the result that endowment policies
for $4,000 were presented to the uni
versity If the plan is followed by
succeeding classes in twenty years
the Creighton university will have an
endowment by it's students of prac-
tically half a million dollars.

WH|RLW|ND CAMPAIGN
PROJECTED IN NEW ORLEANS
FOR RESTORATION OF OLD
CATHEDRAL.

The Most Reverend Archbishop
Blenk of New Orleans, La, has issued
a letter to the clergy and laity,
notifying them of his desire to raise
a sufficient fund in whirlwind cam
paign to effect the restoration of the
venerable and historic ST. Louis
Cathedral. Three years ago atten-
ton was called to it's condition, and
temporary repairs were made to rem
der it safe for holding religious
services. 1t is the hope of Archbishop
Blenk that the two hundredth ami
versary of the founding Of the Cathe-
dral, which will occur in 1918, will see
the old edifice around which so many
religious and historic memories cling,
permanently restored to its pristine
splendor. A committee of laymen will
be appointed to conduct the campaign,
the success of which is already assur-
ed.

THE SAV|OUR'S TOMB
JERUsALEM's MOST PRECIOUS
SHRINE AND TREASURE.

Never for a moment from the day
when Our Lord rose from the dead
to the present hour has His sacred
tomb ceased to be visited and honored
by the children of His Holy Church.
One of the Pagan Emperors of
Rome, in a vain attempt to take away
this source of inspiration and zeal
from the hated Christians, built a
temple of Venus above the place
When, early in the fourth century, the
earth, defiled by the idolatrous wor-
ship, was being removed, at the COM
mand of Constantine, the first of the
Christian Emperors, the sepulchre
which Joseph of Arimathea had hewn
for himself out of rock in which he
buried the body of the blessed
Saviour, was exposed once more to
eyes aglow with divine charity. Great
was the joy of the pious Emperor and
his sanity mother, Helena, at this
precious discovery; and they FASTENED
to adorn the sacred cave with the rich
est materials, most beautifully
wrought, and to build beside it a mag
nificent group of buildings, including
the great Church dedicated to the
Mystery of the Resurrection, which
gave it's name to the whole.
The French Bishop Arculf, who saw
the building about the beginning of
the seventh century, tells us that they
then consisted of the Anastasis, or
Church of the Resurrection, contain
ing the Holy Sepulchre itself, the
Basilica of Martyrion, a five-aisled
building with a circular apse and an
opening towards the east, a square

THE MEXICAN CERvANTEs
sALAzAR FRANCISCO or THE UNI
VERSlTY OF MEXICO WAS A
NOTED SCHOLAR AND AUTHOR.

Another Cervantes, Sa1azar Fran
cisco, was one of the first professors
of the University of Mexico. This
great national university was estab-
lished by the order of Charles v and
formally opened January %, 1868, only
siXty-one years after Columbus dis
covered the Western Hemisphere, and
less than forty years after Cortez came
to Mexico.
He was professor of rhetoric in the
university and wrote several impor-
tant works on the history of the City
of Mexico and the Province Of New
Spain in general. He had been pro-
