A FITTING TRIBUTE
MONUMENT TO THE FIRST
NEGRO PRIEST IN AMERICA.

A movement is on foot to erect a
monument over the grave, in
st. Peters cemetery, Quincy, ILL.,, of
the Rev. Augustine Tolton. the first
Negro priest in the United States.
Father Tolton was born i'll Brush
Creek, Rails County. Mo, April 1,
1854, He came to Quincy with his
mother when he was seven years of
age and, after working in a tobacco
factory for several years, attended ST.
Boniface's school, where he learned to
speak the German language. Later
he went to st. Peters school and re-
ceived his first education in the clas-
sizes from the local priests. Through
the efforts of Father Michael Richardt,
he was enabled to go to Rome in 1880,
and complete his studies at the Col
lege of the Propaganda, where he was
ordained on April "a, 1886, by Cardinal
Parocchi. He was assigned at once to
take charge of the colored population
of Quincy, among whom he labored
with heroic zeal until November 28,
1889, when he went to Chicago and
held services in st. Mary's Church,
later in a church of his own which he
dedicated to st. Monica. He was in
charge of this church when he died,
July 8, 1897, in consequence of sun.
stroke. The remains were taken to
Quincy and buried at st. Peters
cemetery.

DIOCESE OF Ell PAso PRESENTS
GIANT PROBLEM.

Some idea of the tremendous
spiritual task that lies ahead of Bishop
A. ]. Schuler, S. j., formerly of Den
yer, in his new Diocese of Ell Paso, is
given by Father Edward Barry in the
parochial quarterly issued by him at
Ell Paso. Father Barry says:
"The Ell Paso diocese has a reputed
Catholic population of some $4,000
people, namely, about 1000 adult
Americans, or English-speaking peo-
pie, and 10000 Mexicans; the latter,
no doubt, were all baptized in the
Church, and perhaps confirmed also,
but it goes without saying that not
more than one-fifth of them are prac-
tical Catholics. If the good Bishop
can gather the other four-fifths, or
10000 of them, within the pale of re-
ligion and civilization he will be doing
a great work.
''There are % churches with resident
priests, having 64 missions and 45 Sta
tions connected with them. Academies
for the education of girls are located
at Eel Paso, Las Cruces and Silver
City, n. NJ, having an attendance of

MANY EDITIONS OF THE
BIBLE BEFORE LUIHER'S time

In view of the publicity given in the
Auditorium to the assertion, that Mar
tin Luther first printed the Bible,
am offending no one by narrating the
following facts:
Luther's Bible came out in 1920.
Previous to that date there were 104
editions of the Bible in Latin.
Before the birth of Luther there
were five editions in the German Ian
guage, and there were q in the Ger
man language before his Bible saw
the light of day.
In Italy there were 40 editions of the
Bible before the first Protestant edi-
ton appeared; % of these were in the
Italian language.
In France there were Is editions be-
fore 1447.
Spain began to publish the Bible in
1447, Hungary in 1456, Bohemia in
147S, Flanders in 1900.
In all, 625 editions Of the Bible, in
which 196 were in the language of the
common people, had issued from the
press before the first Protestant YER
sion of the Scriptures was sent forth
Commenting on the "Caxton" exhibi
ton of these Bibles, the Protestant
Church Times said:
This will be very useful for one
thing, at any rate, as disproying the
popular fallacy about Luther finding

COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
IN CHURCHES
WISCONSIN SUPREME COURT DE.
cLAREs 1T CONSTITUTIONAL.

Graduation exercises are not part
] of the school curriculum, and the hold
ing of those of the public school in
a church is not introducing religion
into the school system, the supreme
court of Wisconsin decided last week.
| The court affirmed the decision in the
case of the state eX rel Conway ct al
against the district board of joint
school district No. A.
Justice Barnes in the opinion of the
court said
In the case before us it appears
from the allegations of the petitions
that both Catholic priests and Prot.
estant ministers have at different
times been selected to deliver the in
vocation at graduation exercises
There is no claim that on any of these
occasions any unseemly hint or sug-
gestion was made by any of the rev.
crend gentlemen who were SO honored.
In fact, the contrary appears, by infer
ence at least.
so it is clear that no showing was
made that sectarian instruction was
given as that term is defined. Had
it appeared that the invocations given
were sectarian in character, and that
the school board threatened to con-
tinue to permit such practice i'll the
future, we do not wish to be under
stood as intimating that court of
equity would not enjoin the continu-
ance of such practice.
"We think it would be difficult to
pick out any case which by any fair
or reasonable construction could be
said4to be violated by delivery of a
non-sectarian prayer at the gradua-
ton exercises. No man is compelled
to worship, nor is he compelled to at
tend a place of worship, nor does he,
as before stated, attend such place
except in the most technical sense
when he attends graduation exercises.
Pupils do not graduate on such OC,
caSions for the purpose of worship,
and the short, non-sectarian inyoca-
tion that is usually given is a mere
Incident which occupies but a few mo-
ments of the two hours or more that
usually is occupied with the programs
on such occasions. If the prayer be
non-sectarian it does not interfere with
any right of conscience and neither is
the matter of permitting it the giving
of any preference to any religious
establishment or religious mode of
worship in a constitutional sense.
"a very different question would
arise if an attempt were made to in
troduce the practice of having prayer
of the daily routine in our public
schools. Considering what there has
been done here and the rare occasions
it has been done, the matter COM
planned Of seems to be inconsequen-
tial, and it follows that what has been
the judgment of the lower court was
right"

SOME UNDERLYING CAUSES
POINTED OUT BY CATHOLIC
UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR.

Rev. Ur, Peter Guilday, Professor
of American Church History in the
Catholic University, disclosed some
reasons for the existence of such con-
tinucd opposition to the Catholic
Church in America. He made these
observations in the course of a bril-
liant lecture recently in Philadelphia.
lie declared that bigotry alone is not
responsible for all the anti-Catholic
hatred.
There is underneath it ALL he said
"a racial question which apparently
will never be settled in this world
a chasm between the Anglo-SaXon and
the Irish races which has never been
bridged; there is also an economic or
industrial question back of it all, for
with the rapid influx Of foreigners, the
majority Of whom were Catholics, into
this country the industries of the east
Crn states were practically overCrOwd-
ed, and employers took advantage of
the situation to hire immigrants at a
lower rate of wages than native born
Americans, who therefore felt that the
immigrants were doing them a per
sonal injury; there is also more pow
crful factor still, which explains much
of the bigotry-the political factor.
The ballot box was generally being
controlled by these new citizens, and
not always legally, and since the ma
jority of them became members Of one
political party the other political party

grants in u vain effort to rally the

delegates to give their views regard

The delegates looked at one
another, each waiting for his neigh
Dor to speak. At length rather
stoutish Oyster in frock-coat arose
and coughed twice behind his hand
to hide his embarrassment. Alice
couldn't help nudging the Duchess.
II thought the Walrus and the
Carpenter finished the oysters" she
whispered.
Shut up!" said the Duchess, with.
out turning her head.
The Oyster mad now found voice.
"Mr. Chairman" said he, Il have
often heard it vulgarly said that
eagles should have feathers. Yet

be sure to give him she'll" And
the Oyster, smiling complacently, sat
down.
Sir" thundered a voice from the
opposite side of the hall, "the gentle
man is playing with us!"
/ "Oh, look!" cried Alice, there is
the dear old Dodo.''
Sure enough, there was the dear old
Dodo in an Immaculate Palm-Beach
suit, his eyes flashing fire, his ample
| figure quivering with indignation.
"Sir, must try to control my feelings

HASKELL INVESTIGATION
FIR. GORDON PROVES CHARGES
IN INVESTIGATION OF INDIAN
SCHOOL AT LAWRENCE, KAN. +:

The most important victory scored
in recent years against bigoted dis
elimination in government institutions
occurred at the Haskell Institute, Law
renee, Kan, last week.
The series charges made against
the authorities of the Indian school
by the Rev. Father Gordon, full blood
ed Chippewa Indian priest, were given
thorough airing by e. B. Linnen,
chief inspector of the Federal Bureau
of Indian Affairs, and the Rev. Mr..
S. A. Elliot, President Wilson's per-
sonal representative and a member of
the board.
The numerous charges made by
Father Gordon were proven true,
with the exception of several minor
charges, which were referred to
Secretary of the Interior Lane for his
final verdict.
1t came about this way:
Cardinals Gibbons and Farley and
Archbishop Prendergast, members of
the Catholic Indian Mission Board
wrote Secretary of the Interior Lane
asking that home also be provided
for a priest-chaplain, the same as is
now provided for secretary of the
Y. NJ. C. A. Secretary Lane, under
the laws, was unable to do so, but
took the shortest cut out of a ticklisb
position and wired the superintendent
at Haskell to see that the .Y" secret
tary was Immediately ordered to move
off of government grounds. The Sec
retary had moved before the inspect
ors arrived.
1t is said that several of the en-
ployes accused of insulting Catholic
pupils will be dropped outright, and
that a general change in the person
mel of the institution will be made
by the government in the near future.
After the investigation, which was
held in the form of trial court, a
set of rules were drawn up which in
| future will govern things Catholic in
the institution. They will in all prob.
ability also become standard in al
government Indian schools. We re
produce the instrument in full:

ST. PAUL PASTOR MURDERED

at the Grand Seminary, Montreal
Canada, On December %, 1888, he
was ordained for the Diocese of ST.
Paul
Father Jajeski's first assignment
was to Minnesota Lake. He was pas
tor at Wilno, Minnesota, from 1885 to
1892. In this year he was called to
st. Paul, where he founded the Polish
parish of st. Casimir, where he re-
mained for two years. In September,
1894, he was transferred to the parish
of Holy Cross in Minneapolis, remain
ing in that charge until January 1,
1914. He then returned as pastor to
the Church of St. Casinir.
Father Jajeski stood high in the
Diocese of st. Paul and was well liked
by both priests and people, who all
speak in the highest terms of his ex-
cellent qualities and work. He did a
great deal to organize the Church
work of st. Casimir's parish. When
he left Holy Cross parish he was
given a great public reception and pre-
sented with a large purse made up by
citizens as well as public officials and
representatives of numerous civic and
public organizations. Last September
Father JajeSki organized the st. Paul
Polish Commercial Club, of which he
was director. When the war broke
out he was active in raising funds for
the war sufferers in Poland, and at
the time of his death he was still in
terested in that work. About month
ago he established the Minnesota
Polish News, a weekly newspaper, of
which Francis J. Rosenthal is the
editor.
Reverend Father Jajeski is survived
by his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
Jajeski, and two sisters, Mrs. Frances
Meka and Mrs. A. Jazeski
The funeral was held at the Church
of st. Adalbert. in st. Paul, on Thurs
day, March 8. There was solemn
Requiem Mass at 10 o'clock. The
officers of the Mass were as follows:
Cclebrant, Rev. Jas. Pacholski; dea-
con, Rev. Peter Roy; Subdeacon, Rev.
JOS CieminSki; master of ceremonies,
Rev. Fr. Worzalla. The sermon was
preached by the Rev. S. A. Iciek of
Duluth
Burial was in Calvary cemetery, st.
Paul.
