HELD IN CATHOLIC CHURCH

.Tama, Iowa, Nov. 30.-The union
Thanksgiving services were held this
year in the Catholic church conduct
ed by the pastor, Rev. T. F. O'Brien,
assisted by Father Dougherty, Mason
City; Father Lehman. Waterloo;
Father Dehan, Blessing; Father Tobin,
st. Anthony. Father Dostal. assistant
pastor of the Tama parish, conducted
the choir, which rendered special
music for this occasion. Father Leni-
han, Waterloo, delivered the address,
which was filled with patriotism and
an appeal to all to stand by the presi-
dent as "the man Of the hour" He
stated with pride that nearly 40 per
cent of the American army and navy
we're Catholic boys who were giving
their lives for democracy and free
dom.
Father O'Brien had issued special
invitations to the public to attend this
service with seats reserved for the
city officials, the Protestant clergy,
the members of the G. A. R., and
the officers of the Commercial club.
Enough accepted this invitation to
fill the large auditorium and a very
liberal collection was turned over to
the Red Cross.

sEcEDERs REFUSED CHARTER.
Hon. H. M. Edwards, presiding
Judge of Lackawanna County, Penn,
in an opinion filed last week, refused
granting charter of incorporation
to the seeding members of st. JOS
eph's Lithuanian Church, North
Scranton.
The seceders desired to call them
selves the Lithuanian National Catho-
lie congregation. Bishop Hoban OBJ
jected to the use of the word Cath
Ollie, and Judge Edwards upheld such
objection. In reaching conclusion,
Judge Edwards referred to the SINH
larity between the Lithuanians of
North Scranton and the Polish seced-
ers of Dupont. A charter to the lat
ter was refused by Judge Fuller in
Luzerne county. Judge Fuller's &C.

FIRST MASS CELEBRATED
ON THIS Hemisphere

Next Saturday, the Feast Of the I'm
maculate Conception, will be the
oath anniversary Of the celebration
Of the first Holy Mass ever cele-
brated in America or on the Western
Hemisphere, December 8, 1893. The
following clipping from the Novem-
ber number Of Light of Truth" will
be found of deep interest:
On the Island of Haiti the first Mass
was celebrated in all America, IN
1893. The priest who said the Mass
was Juan Perez, friend and counselor
Of Columbus. As guardian or superior
Of the monastery Of La Rabida, Spain,
Father Perez had encouraged the dis
coverer. and by interceding for him
at court made possible the first Jour-
nsy Of discovery. On the second jour-

navy. They might not be eheriffs or
solicitors, or even game-keepers or
constables. They we're forbidden to
possess any arms or a horse worth
more than five pounds. No Catholic
could be a guardian. and all wards
in chancery were brought up as Prot
estants. The land of a Catholic was
divided among his children, but If an
eldest son conformed to the Protest
ant religion the father was reduced
to the position of tenant for life
and the property secured to the Prot
estant son. The most ma
lignant of these measures were those
designed to confine education to the
Protestant colonists.'"
"These laws were all repealed"
commented Dr.. Mcneil, when they
had effected their purpose, more than
hundred years later. But the iron
which entered the Irish Catholic soul
in the process still shows itself.
There is no need of invoking the at
titude of the Catholic church of to-.
day, as an explanation Of the mental
ity of the Irish.
"The British government and the
Canadian government would oppose
strenuously today the removal of the
moderating influence of the Catholic
church in Ireland and Quebec" was
the emphatic declaration of the Arch.
bishop in closing of the interview.

The art of making stained glass

period of decadence in the early

Slowly but surely it will be revived
to its former position as leader Of that
wonderful symphony of religious craft
that is housed in cathedrals of me-

vENlcE's FAMOUS CHURCH
OF SAINT MARK

Venice, Nov. 18.-The city has taken
on new confidence and hope with the
visit of Premier Vittorio Orlando. who
personally gave directions for the pro-
lection and succor Of the population
and who noted during tour through
out the city the calm fortitude with
which the people awaited events.
The premier expressed surprise at
the dignity and tranquility with which
the people remaining In Venice faced
their peril. Besides q considerable
number of citizens and poor people,
these include the mayor, Count GIRL
mani, the city assessor and all mem
bers of the municipal council.
The famous Church of st. Mark con-
tinues open and frequent Masses are
attended by crowds of women and
children, who offer prayers for the
preservation of the city. The aspect
of the church has been completely
changed and now it resembles for
tress, with its mosaic decorations
along the front protected by layers of
bags filled with earth and all art
treasures in the interior of the edifice
similarly protected by a thick armor
of earth bags.
In the state archives of the Frari
church are many valuable manuscripts
of Italian authors.
The streets of Venice still present
an appearance of animation, with a
number of townspeople going about
their duties. Premier Orlando was &C.
claimed as he passed along the streets
on his way to the municipal council,
where he gave orders for the contin-
ued provisioning of the city with coal,
bread and all necessities.
