A Religious Family.

Father Oliver Daily, S. j., recently
Of Galway, Ireland, who died some
weeks ago, came of a family remark
able for the piety of its members, four
of whom became priests in the Jesuit
order, while one sister devoted her
life to God in religion, and is now a
nun in Namur, Belgium. Born at
Dalysgrove, County Galway, he was
educated on the continent, where he
spent most of his early years. He
made his ecclesiastical studies in
France. Belgium and Austria. In an
interval of his studies he taught in
the Jesuit colleges at Limerick and
Tullamore. Immediately after his or
dination he was sent to Australia.
where he spent twenty-five years Of a
very laborious missionary life. He
returned to Ireland about ten years
ago, and after years Of missionary
work at home and in Scotland he de-
voted the remainder of his life to
work at the residence of the Jesuit
Fathers in Galway.

DECLINES 10 BE SWORN.

At the Dale Street police court,
Liverpool, an interesting incident &C.
CURED recently, when a witness, a
shop manager, declined to be sworn
on the Protestant version of the BIZ
BILE because he was a Catholic, and
he said he would not regard such
oath as binding on his conscience. AS
Catholic version of the Bible could
not be found, the stipendary magis-
trate suggested that the witness
should affirm, which he did The
next moment the witness shop boy
raised similar objection and he,
too, was allowed to affirm. The Incl
dent aroused a good deal of interest
among court officials, for so far as
could be remembered this was the
first occasion on which a Catholic
witness at Dale Street had ever re-
fused on conscientious grounds to
take the book"

PRIEST HOURS DEAD; BODY STILL
is WARM.
Physicians Wonder at Unusual Fea-
lures Attending Death.

(From N. Y. Freemans Journal.)
The unusual case of a body retain
ing the normal warmth of life several
hours after death was presented to
the physicians of Flower hospital in
New York City on Feb. IA, when DR..
Menchen of that institution reported
that the Rev. John R. Kropac of the
Church of St. John Nepomucene, in
East Fifty-seventh street, who had
died at II o'clock in the morning, reg
istered the same temperature by every
test at o'clock in the afternoon.
The priests physician, DR.. ]. Roder
Of No. 1877 East Fifty-seventh street,
first pronounced him dead. Some time
later Father Kropac's most intimate
friend, the Rev. Stephen Krasula of
Yonkers, called at the priests late
home.
He said Father Kropac had often
feared he would be buried alive and
asked DR.. Menchen to examine the
body DIR. Menchen made all the usual
tests for death. He then felt the body
and marveled at the temperature.
Later he said every test proved the
priest was dead. He could not account
for the warmth of the body.

Death of Irish Poet.

The death of Miss Mary Thompson
which occurred at Ravensdale, County
Louth, Ireland, in her ninety-fourth
year, sewers, perhaps, the last link
with that brilliant band of minor poets
that helped to make the Nation
famous. A friend of John Mitchell,
over the pen name of "Ethne," she
wrote many poems for the '.Nation'
from 1853 EDWARDS, and for the "Celt''
from 1857 to 1859. One of her his
torical ballads has been several times
reprinted. Her father, R. Thompson,
died eighty years ago at the age of
seventy-five, so the two generations
covered 1855 years. He held a COM
mission in the Ballymascanlon batal-
lion of the Irish Volunteers, and was
reputed to have been a United Irish
man. Her surviving brother, T.
Thompson, possesses the buff coat
worn by King William under his armor
when crossing the Boyne. 1t shows
clearly on the shoulder the mark of
the bullet that nearly changed the
fortunes of the day.

OBJECTIONABLE PICTURES.

Even in Ireland, Bishop has felt
obliged to denounce "a growing abuse
of a very dangerous nature" the ex-
hibition of dirty pictures, says the
Sacred Heart Review. The Bishop of
Limerick has written a letter to one
of his priests in which he pledges
himself to take the strongest steps
within his power to prevent the con-
tinuance of such an agency of cor
ruption. His words should be taken
to heart by Catholics all over the
world.
ION the occasion of the exhibition
of this indecent picture" His Lord
ship writes, Il am told the house was
literally packed and in the audience
were large numbers of young boys
and girls. l should like to know
what the parents of these children
think of their responsibility to God
In this matter. If the minds of their
boys and girls are corrupted by this
rottenness, do they think that they
shall not have to answer for it? Then
what about the police? Possibly they
have got orders to allow considerable
latitude in these picture houses. If
so, 1t Is a scandal. If not, why has
there been no prosecution? The po-
lice officers may not be aware that a
body of young men went to the same
picture house, on Thursday, fully de-
termined, at any cost, to stop. the
scandalous exhibition. Fortunately
the picture was not shown. OF
course, one cannot approve of num-
Der of citizens taking the law into
their own hands, but if the law will
not give them and their children the
protection to which in Christian
community they are entitled, then it
is hard to blame them if they protect
themselves. The police officials will
tell me that prosecution in the case
would not succeed. Possibly they are
right. There was strange decision
in Dublin recently. But yet I think
that, if the magistrates of Limerick
were told the details of the exhibit
ton of last Wednesday as l have
heard it, they would regard it, as l
do, as abominably immoral and indie
cent. But whatever others think,
must do my duty towards the morals
of the people for whom l am respon-
sible."

The True Story of the Poisoning

were hand-illuminated; but the prin-
cipal part of that work was done, I'M
der the direction of the artist, by the
Sisters of Nazareth Academy, La
Grange, Illinois, and it was done free
OF charge as a labor of love.
"The University Club, itself, CO.
operated by spending every penny it
received on the service, and is in no
way to blame for the mishap. The
decorators, the printers, the painters,
and everyone else connected with the
banquet did likewise, without being
asked. The Paulist Choristers were
there one hundred and twenty-five
strong, and would not take a penny
for their services. 1t is rather odd,
to say the least, that a cook would
object to what gives him his liveli-
hood. Crones' act did more to injure
his fellow-chefs and walters than any,
one else. He did a service to the
Catholic Church, by calling the atten-
ton of public men to the danger of
granting unbridled license to calumny
and abuse of public agencies for good.
It is strange, too, that the attempted
plot was aimed at the particular
church which is the chief factor in
Chicago's charitable and humanitarian
work; but the plot might easily have
been aimed at any religious organiza-
ton. AS many non-C Catholics as Catho-
lies would have been killed had the
poisoner succeeded"

CATHOLIC ROYALTY WED.
Princess Marie Louise Of Orleans Be-
comes Wife Of Prince Philippe
de Bourbon of Sicily.

An interesting marriage, which took.
place in Paris last week, was that of
Princess Marie Louise OF Orleans to-
Prince Philippe de Bourbon of the.
two Sicilies. The ceremony was
strictly private in view of the war,
and took place in the mansion of the
Due and Duchess de Vendome, moth.
er of the bride. The nuptial Mass.
was celebrated in the private chapel
by the Able Runner, pastor of the.
Church of st. Pierre, Neuilly; and at
its close the Cardinal-Archbishop of
Paris gave the Papal blessing to the
bridal pair, to whom he addressed q
touching sermon. Msgr. Chapon,
Bishop of Nice, assisted at the sere--
mony. The witnesses for the princess,
were her two uncles, the King of the.
Belgians and the Due d'Orleans, who
were respectfully represented by
Baron Guillaune, Belgian minister in
France, and the Due de Guise. The.
witnesses of the bridegroom, who is.
the son of the Comte and Confess.
Caserta, were King of Spain repre-
sented by the Infant don Cadlos, and
Prince Juan de Bourbon Of the Two.
Sicilies, brother of the bridegroom,
who was represented by the Comte-
de La Tour-en-Voive, the Belgian MIN
lister of Foreign Affairs, was also.
amongst the guests present.

gas leakage, and to relieve the ends of
the ship from excessive strain and up.
ward pressure should it be necessary
for it to rear up or dive at steep
angle. So much, then, for the general
theory and design of the body.
Given the framework and gasbags
complete, we come to the mechanism.
Along the bottom of the ship runs
V-shaped keel, and from this keel are
suspended two cars-generally called
"gondolas" each of which is situated
about an equal distance from the CEN
ter of the ship and from its own end.
These cars contain the engines, fuel
and crew, and generally two or three
machine-guns apiece.
The PropeIiers.
Each ship has four propellers. which
are mounted on brackets on the main
framework of the body, one on each
side of the car. Each propeller is
driven through long shaft and bevel
gearing by a separate engine, so that
each can be worked, or can be stopped,
independently of the others. This not
only adds to ease in maneuvring, but
is safeguard in case of one or more
engines or propellers being damaged.
At the stern of the main framework
are fixed two control or steering
planes, one set being placed vertically
to steer as an ordinary rudder steers
boat, and the other set placed hori-
zontally so as to steer up and down.
These control planes are operated by
cables from the forward gondola, in
which is the pilots cabin, and from
this cabin the pilot can communicate
with the engineers in charge of the
motors, just as the captain of sea
ship controls his engine-room staff.

Bibles in British Museum.

In his work on 1.-The Old English
Bible" Cardinal Gasquet gives the
following list OF Catholic editions OF
the Bible found in the British Mu
scum:
I'm the collection of Bibles in the
British Museum, according to the cat.
alogue of 1892, there are eleven Ger.
man editions of the Bible. ranging
from 14e6 to 1918; three Bohemian
editions. between 1883 and 1906; one
Dutch, dated 1477; five French, from
1910 to 1881; seven Italian, between
1881 and 1882. These, be it remem-
bered, are all Catholic in their origin
and execution; and they by no means
represent all the editions published,
but only such as the English nation
has secured for the British Museum
collection"

with PA Carmelite priests murdered
in Paris in 1892, for the faith. The.

curia of Paris in this subject, and Car
dinal Vannutelli, who has often visited
the tombs of these martyred religious,
has undertaken the oral arguments be-

One of the most distinguished of
the Belgian refugees, the Very Rev.
Theophile L. B. Moulard, Dean of Dix
nude. died recently at Woodford
Bridge, Essex, England. The late Dean
came of well known family in
Bruges, of which several members
were distinguished in the military as
well as in the learned professions. He
was formerly Professor of Litterae
Hummaniores at the College of Roul-
ers and afterwards the director of the
College at Mourseron. He began his
public ecclesiastical career as the vic.
ar of Ostend, becoming Dean of Dix
nude in 1895. There his devotion, his
special learning, and his patriotism be-
came as widely recognized as were his
personal charity and generosity. He
estored the beautiful Cathedral at Dix
nude, which was built during the Mid.
die Ages. During the bombardment
of Dixmude he witnessed the destruc.
ton of his cherished Cathedral.

LETTER OF FATHER KELLEY
REGARDING cRoNEs' POISON
blot

In view Of the excuse offered by the
alleged poisoner, who signs himself
as Jean Crones, in recent letter to
New York papers, for attempting one
of the most dastardly deeds of history,
The Right Reverend Francis c. Kelley,
d. d., president of The Catholic Church
Extension Society. under whose aus
pieces the banquet was given, has is
sued the following statement to the
press:
Neither the Catholic Church, nor
The Catholic Church Extension Soci-
ETY. paid one penny out of its funds
for the banquet to Archbishop Munde-
lein. The banquet was given by few
gentlemen of Chicago who are inter-
ested in the Society; and for the sole
purpose of having the Archbishop meet
the city's leading business and pro-
fessional men-but chiefly the employ
ers of labor. Because of their knowl-
edge of the Archbishop's plans for
social and charitable work, these gen.
tlemen thought it best for the city, to
put into immediate touch one who had
both the power and will to cooperate
with employers and other leaders for
the benefit of their employees, and the
employers and leaders themselves.
The banquet seemed to be the quickest
and the best way to carry out the
idea. The Society's name was used
only because the donors, who are
mostly Life Members, so desired; and
the officials of the Society gladly &C.
guessed and took charge Of the ban
quet arrangements with pleasure.
These same gentlemen are, themselves.
large employers of labor, and the most
charitable and generous of men. 1t
has been my pleasure to know this;
for l have been, for years, distribu-
tor of their secret charities. Only the
day after the banquet, was called
upon by one of these men to investi-
gate an anti-tuberculosis society, with
instructions to extend help generously,
if found that it was needed. An
other of these same men is the chief
support of one of the greatest chart
ties in this city. The banquet did not
cost SIS a plate, nor one-third of that
