"The Hospital Saint.

In 1850 there was published in the congregation of. St. Philip Neri, in London, life of Camillus in two volumes. These books were also sold by Edward Dunigan & Bro, in the United States, that same year. St. Camlllus was canonized by Pope Ben edlct XIV in 1746 and has been styled ln our day as the hospital saint"
 The brief facts in reference to the establishment of the order of nurses With the Red Cross as their dis tlngulshing mark, are these:
 Camille COmpellio, of a noble family in Abruzzi, married in Milan an off Ger in the imperial army of Charles N of Italy. A few days before child was born; she dreamed that she had given birth to son with a red cross on his breast, who was followed by other children with similar crosses.
 This child was 'Camillus, born May 25, 1850. His mother died when he was 13 years old and his father when he was 19. About this time scratch on his right leg above the ankle turned into running sore. which never completely healed It pre- vented him from following the career of a soldier which he had begun, and brought him in touch with hospitals and the need for nurses.
 lie was man of tremendous zeal and unusual piety. He was chosen superintendent of the hospital of St. Glacomo in Rome. In 1852 he re- ceived an inspiration to form an order of Ministers of the sick At the age of g. he began his studies for the priesthood and was ordained June 1O 1854. On March IS, 1856, Pope Sixtus V. confirmed the congregation of nurses that Camillus had gathered, and on June 16, 1886, in another brief ordered that Camillus and his com- panlons should wear as distinguish ing mark of their order a red cross on their habits and cloaks.
 In 1901 Red Cross nurses of St. Camillus accompanied Italian troops to recover Canizza in Crotia. During the siege. some baggage was set on fire, which burned up everything but the red cross sewed on one of the c]oaks of the Ministers of the sick" This was considered such a miracle that the red cross was distributed, thread by thread, among the troops
 St. Camillus died in 1914, twenty eight years after founding his order of Red Cross nurses which his mother had seen in dream before his birth. He established during his life sixteen houses of his order in Italy and had lost 220 of his nurses while attending the numerous plaques and wars of that time.
 Introduced Into Spain!
 The order was introduced into Spain and later an Italian priest travelled to Mexico, Peru and Brazil to introduce the order into South America
 The nursing order of Sisters of St. Francis of the Poor wear the red cross of Camillus on their breast in hospitals everywhere, and in Europe they are found today on the battle field with no other recompense than "ad majoreum dei gloriam.'

Origin of The Red Cross
By REV. F. J. M'ELHONE.

A conversation ensued the other day of which 1 was an auricular wit ness, as to the origin of the Red Gross nurses. Finally, when argu- mcnts were heard pro and con, the subject matter under discussion was referred to me, in the hope I might be able to solve the discussion. One Mir. Blank claimed that it was of Catholic origin, and proceeded to substantiate his claim.
 Facts are stubborn things Clara. Bartcn, in "The Story of the Red Cross," says:
 Some 200 years ago a few regi- mental doctors were provided for armies. Only, however, when Flor ence Nightingale went to the Crimea was nurse for the sick or wounded soldiers ever heard of" Florence Nightingale visited the Crimea in 1854.
 Now the modern Red Cross organi- zation of nurses was founded by a. humanitarian Swiss named Jean Hen- ri Dunant, who wrote his experiences at the battle of Solferino, June 24, 1859. This book Clara Barton and everyone interested in Red Cross his story, must be familiar with. On page 80, MT. Dunant tells of the work of the Sisters of Charity, nursing the wounded and sick soldiers during the Crimean war of 1854. Clara Barton passes the work of the Catholic orders by in obsequious silence.
 Credit to whom credit is due" We cannot forget the Angel of Crimea," when she appeared Coming from one of the most beautiful homes of England, wealthy and accomplished, her maiden heart was touched to the quick by the smothered vail of dis tress that quivered in the southern breezes. Florence Nightingale and her faithful band of 34 nurses found cholera raging in a camp where water was foot deep and the air reeking with the poisonous effluvia from the unburied dead Filth and pestilence was reduced considerably and the worCs, Blessed are the merciful." took on a new meaning to many a sick man. as these angels in human form seemed to float in Godlike min istry through the crowded wards of the 'Crimean hospitals.
 But just how any one can write about nursing the sick and wounded on the battlefields ana during plaques without referring to St. Ca millus De Lellis can only be accounted for by the blindness that comes to those who do not want to see

GERMANS AMBUSHED
BY AMERICAN TROOPS
REVENGE IN PART FOR RE-
CENT TRENCH RAIDS.
None of Men in Ambush Killed
by Enemy Bullets Which
Were Fired in Return.

With the American Army in
france, Nov. 15.-American infan-
trymen eXacted a part revenge for a
trench raid during a recent night bv
ambushing large German patrol in
No Mans Land, killing or wounding
a number of the enemy.
The American patrol, in which
there were some Frenchmen, ar
ranged the ambuscade near the Ger
man lines on a shell-ruined farm.
After lying in the mud nearly ali
night the patience of the watchers
was rewarded by the sight of a large
German patrol, its number more
than double that of the Franco
Americans.
The Germans were permitted to
pass, when the Americans and
French on their flank opened hot
fire from shell craters and other
shelters where they were secured.
The Germans were taken com
pletely by surprise and bolted. car
rying with them their men who had
been hit.
The number OF dead and wound
ed is uncertain, but none of the men
in ambush were hit by The bullets
the Germans later sent in from a
distance. There were congratula-
tions all around when the Americans
and French reentered their trenches.
During the last two nights the
Germans have continuously used ma
chine guns in the direction of the
American line. Sniping is becoming
more active on both sides Ameri-
can sharp shooters are working close
to the German lines, especially when
the nights are clear.
The activity by enemy snipers
thus far has resulted in one Ameri.
can casualty. 4 non-commissionet ed
officer was hit in the head and
killed.
