FINNEGANp'S';i FIDDLE.
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Or. James Henderson, Of Detroit,
Michigan.J

Finnegan's fiddle was Finnegans
pride,
Twas filled with tn finest O. music
inside;
An often as Finnegan started to play.
You could fancy tn fairies all
singin' an gay;
And Finnegan loved it, o don't tell me
No.
Since ye'd once see him playin' an
huggin' it so.
He could call up tn ghosts wild a
touch av tn string;
When he pressed on tn bow, how
the fairies would sing!
And when he trilled down to the
hairs very end,
Ye'd think him lamenting a long
cherished friend.
No wonder that Finnegan loved it
the why?
He could fill it with laughter; for
him it would cry;
And the 1oveliest notes ay tn birds
couldn't be,
The lisp o. and echo Whin Finnegan
he
Would fondle the strings, wild tn ten.
derest touch
o shame on your music We starlin
an thrush!
It. gave wings to,-the feet o. the col
leens so gay;
The lads blessed old Finnegans fid-
die they say:
1t could mimic tn wind or could chum
wild tn storm,
An prettfer- mornin' there never
was born
When at night in the, moonlight, as
Finnigan he
Would rest the old fiddle SO fond on
hiskneeS
An seem as if talkin' to fairies inside,
Till the gates o. the sunrise stood
open, and wide.
God bless that old Finnegan playin'
his tune,
Wherever in. Ireland they'd offer
him room;
God bless the old fiddle since he is
away,
For Finnegan walks wild tn fairies
today!
And sometimes he comes, to the trem-
bling string:
On windy nights often wee fairies
will sing;
But the rafters that ratified, when Fin
negan played,
Are silent since Finnegan's gone to
the shade.

ner in furthering the material, but
especially the spiritual progress of
the parish, thus making it a model
one. The new brick extension to the
church, the tiled sanctuary the three

EARLY AMERICAN BOOKS
FIRST BOOK PRINTED IN MEXICO
IN 1914.

In literature Mexico claimed the prt-
ority over the rest of the continent,
writes Father Carrasco, S. J. The
desire to promote the education OF the
Indians resulted in the introduction
of the printing press in America at
very early date-about 1886. In 1914
was printed in Mexico a book called
"Doctrina Christiana,p of which there
is copy in the Hispanic Museum,
on 18TH street, New York city. By
permission of Mr.. Huntington this
book will be reproduced in fac-simile
this fall and published by the United
States Catholic Historical Society.
This was the first book printed in
the Western World. The bay Psalm
Book" the first book printed in what
is now the United States, did not ap-
pear until 1889 BY this time the
printing press in Mexico had brought
out fifty books. So you see that in
the matter of printing New England
was nearly century behind Mexico.
The same press, that founded by
Bishop Zumarraga in Mexico City,
printed in 1884 the first piece of music
published on the American Continent.
1t was a .Psaltery, and was printed
in two colors, black and red. 1t is in
every way equal to the fine work of
the sort that was being published in
Europe at that time.
The first wood engraving made In
the Western Hemisphere was pro-
duced in Mexico. 1t appeared on the
title page of an edition of Gerson's
"Tripartite, which was printed in
1914. 1t represents Bishop confer

CATHOLIC ARMY SCENES
REPRODUCED IN BRITISH OF.
FIcIAL WAR FILM.

In the official war film of the British
army it is interesting to note several
Catholic scenes have been included
One is long array of soldiers, "The
MINISTER'S" going to Mass; another is
Catholic memorial service for the
dead, and a third, which sent a thrill
through the audience, was "the only
object left whole in the village of
Neuye Chapelle-a crucifix standing,
frail but entire. amidst the ruins of
the church and village"

100000 FOR DIOCESE
MONEY WILL BE USED TO BUILD
CHURCH IN MICHIGAN.

One-third of the estate of the late
Michael Caplis, wealthy packer and
real estate dealer, amounting to
about 100000, will go to the Detroit
diocese, according to the terms of
settlement, to which Caplis' heirs
agreed and announced in Probate
Court on July IL.
The founding of new parish and
the building of a church for which
most of the money will be spent is
the condition of the bequest.
Caplis was a striking character.
Without business training, he went
into the wholesale meat business and
made himself one of the wealthiest
packers in Michigan.

God, leading naturally to the in

evidenced by more close communion
with the Creator. The consultations of
this new life are then depicted in de-

scribed as the contamination of that

The Metropolitan spewed
out Niagaras of new securities,
sold them and went bankrupt.
The promoters became rich.
The scandal was one of the
nastieSt in American high fl
nance. Out of receivership
the company was reorganized
and under a policy which seems
as morally wrong as it was fl
nancially rash, holders of old
shares were allowed, by pay
ing $3.50 cash, to receive
stocks, which were often issued
new bonds whose interest Mr..
ShontS complains is unearned.
Is it any wonder?
Among the Commitments
and obligations" of local
street-railway financing re-
vealed to the Thompson COM
mittee were bonuses to Mr..
ShontS and others for their ad-
mirable services and profitable
contracts in which the city is an
unconsulted paying partner,

ought to pay the additi-
on to the wages of its men, be-
cause it has not earned "full

dent Shonts explains that this
might be done by tightening

snow removal between tracks.
The old street railways
which the Metropolitan merger
bound together are highly pro-
fitable. Dividends of 6, 7, 8,

proved by the record and the
general public knows the rec
ord because it is newmade.
Either Mr.. Hughes has no
conception of fairness to his
opponent or else his view OF
progresSivism is such he can
see nothing good in such meas
ures as the reserve act, the ru-
raj credits law, the child labor
measure, the income tax and
other measures carried through
congress by President Wilson.
In either case it is difficult to
see how he can logically expect
the support of the progressive
elements in any of the big
parties.

AN UNRELIABLE CANDI-
DATE

nm his speech at Butte, JUS
tice Hughes gave utter
ance to the following re-
markable statement:
"The democratic party has
always been a party of opposi-
ton to progress. There has
not been a national movement
in response to a national de-
mand that has not had to run
over the PROSTATE form of the
democratic party"
If that charge is true Presi-
dent Wilson and his party
should be retired from the con-
troll of the government; if the
charge is false and unfair the
man who makes such accusa-
tions is not worthy of the con-
fidence of the American peo-
pie.
The record in the case is easi-
ly available. The following
are conspicuous among the le-
Sislative measures enacted
under the Wilson regime:
1.-The federal reserve act
which provides safe banking
and prevents financial panics.
"a thorough revision OF
the tariff in the interest Of the
common people.
3-The enactment of the IN
come tax law.
1.-The extension Of the par
cells post.
5-Provision for construct
ion of the Alaska railroad.
6-Creation of the federal
trades commission.
Provision for vast i'm.
provements in the navy and the
army.
8-Enactment of a federal
rural credit law.
9-Enactment of the federal
child labor law.
II is entirely truthful to say
that these measures constitute
the greatest schedule of pro
Oressive laws enacted in this
country since the civil war
Under three years of Wilson
the country has had more pro
gressive legislation than it Sc
cured all told under Taft
Roosevelt and Mckinley. Many
of the laws adopted are fal
reaching in their benefits. 9th
ers are reformatory in their ma
ture. All of them breathe
spirit of progress and construc
tive craftsmanship. They wer'
passed by a democratic admin
istration; they were not rul
over the "prostrate form o
