prised. He had received many shocks
in his life. Sometimes a youth whom
he knew to be very self-willed and
self-opinionated, would come and tell
him he wished to join the Society of
Jesus. Sometimes a wild madcap of
an Irish girl, the admiration of the
hunting field, the belle of the ball
rooms she frequented, would come and
tell him she wanted to be a Poor
Clare. Or highly-cultivated man,
the wit of every dinner table and a
brilliant conversationalist, would an.
nounce that he had decided to be a
Carthusian, and none of them much
surprised him.
He knew it was probable that they
were all excellent subjects for the
life they had chosen. But when Miss
Johnson confronted him with the news
that she wished to go out to this lepel
island, he was simply amazed.

do you know what you are talking
about?'' he asked sharply, almost
rude1y.
But Mary Johnson, with those calm
eyes of hers, looked him straight in
the face, not in the least cowed by his
brusqueness, and said in quiet, deter
mined tones:
Il know what I am going to do. [
am going to this leper island to nurse
Sister Mary Clare. If escape leprosy.
Il shall return after her death; if
catch it, shall remain out there until
the end
Father Paul sank back in his chair
and covered his face with his hands,
and remained speeches. for some
minutes.
Mary Johnson sat quite still, waiting
until he had recovered from the shock
she had evidently given him. When at

though opened only this year, is al
ready attracting large numbers OF
students.
Invites the Servant Sisters.-Rt
Rev. John Ward, Bishop of Leaven-
worth, Kan, has announced officially
that through the generosity of wor'
thy benefactor, he has been able to In
vite the Sisters Servants of Mary, an
order of trained nurses, to labor in
his diocese. Their special work is the
care and tending of the sick poor in
their homes, and their services are
gratuitously rendered, or they may
receive any offering rendered them
Bishop Ward feels that the sick poor
will be kindly, carefully and efficient
" nursed in their humble homes by
these devoted religious, and he ear
nestly recommended their labors to
the clergy of Leavenworth.
Portable AItars.-Last week nine
teen portable affairs were consecrateo
by Rev. w. Carroll Milhollahd, S. S.
Procurator of st. Mary's Seminary
Baltimore. Eighteen of these affairs
are for the use of the Army and Navy
chaplains, and one for Rev. JOSEPH
B. Houck Father Milholland was spe
cially delegated by the Cardinal tc
perform this liturgical function which
belongs to bishops alone. He was as
sisted by a number of the clerics oil
the Seminary. The ceremony took
place in the lower chapel of ST. Mary S
This chapel was begun in 1906 AND
blessed in 1903, and was used by
Mother Seton and her community OF
Sisters.
Hall of Fame.-Quite collection OF
notables from the world of entertain
ment, including opera singers, actors
and actresses from the legitimate
stage and FINLAND, and literary lights
are represented in the hall of fame
of st. Xavier's School, Cincinnati
Ohio. The hall of fame is a house OF
dolls, contributed by people of fame
and national prominence. Some rep
resent the persons by whom they were
sent, and others their handiwork. The
collection, which contains dolls OF
many sorts, is one that is as attrac
tive in itself as is the list of famous
persons who have contributed to it.

Dominican international College,
notwithstanding the difficulties of
the times, no change whatever has
been done in the curriculum of the In
ternational College of the Dominican
Order in Rome, which has continued
the academic year as usual.
Italian Catholic Unity.--Patriotic
feryor has greatly increased in Italy
under the stress of the military re-
verses. A congress of the Catholic
associations held under the direction
of the Cardinal-Archbishop of Milan
has issued proclamation enjoining
resistance and discipline in the firing
line and in the country and has tele-
graphed to the prime Minister the firm
adherence of the Catholics to the
Union Sacrec.
Irish Students Exempt.-Sir Auck-
land Geddes, replying to Mr.. Byrne in
the House of Commons, has explained
that Irish students resident in ecclesi-
astical colleges in Italy appear to be
entitled to a certificate of exemption
from military service from the British
Ambassador in Rome. The same was
to be said of Irish students, not &C.
clesiastical, resident in Italy, who had
not acquired an Italian domicile.

Sisters Revered.--In pagan Kum-

PreIate Condemns Sim Fein.-A
special dispatch to the Toronto Globe
from Dublin, says: Cardinal Logue,
ordering prayers for peace in the Ar.
magh churches yesterday said,
Whether due to the Generalization of
the world by war, or to fate hanging
over unhappy Ireland, blasting her
hopes when they seem to brighten, an
agitation is spreading here which is
ill-considered and Utopian, and cannot
fail to entail suffering, disorganization
and danger, to the end of disaster,
defeat and collapse, and all in pursuit
of a dream no sober man can hope
to see realized, namely, the establish
ment OF an Irish Republic, either by
an appeal to the potentates of Europe
at the Peace Conference, or hurting an
unarmed people against an Empire of
five millions UNDER arms, a thing
which would be ridiculous if it were
not so mischievous and fraught with
such danger to an ardent, generous
and patriotic people,

NORTHCLIFFE VISITS
AMERICANS in CAMP

PARIS, France. North
cliffe has written the following i'm
pressions of his visit to the Ameri-
can forces in the field:
! saw today the spearhead of the
great American army of the future.
l had the honor of being invited by
General Pership to accompany Cen
eral Bliss, Col. and Mrs. House, Am
bassador and Mrs. Sharp, Admiral
Benson, Mr.. Crosby of the treasury,
Mr.. Colby, Mr.. Cravath and Mr..
to the American head
quarters and front
Leaving Paris at eight in the
morning, we returned at 10 o'clock
at night, which may give some idea
of the distances on the American
map in France. This journey, in an
excellently appointed special train,
brought us to a tiny railway station,
where the guard Of honor was wait
ing to receive General Pershing,
General Bliss and Colonel House,
and we passed thru half mile of
grim, hardy young Americans in
trench helmets, standing at atten-
tion. They are in fine health and
spirits.

LANSDOWNE'S FEAR

President Wilson's address to con-
gress was the needed and convincing
reply to the letter of the Marquis of
Lansdowne.
The marquis is one of the infiex-
ible tories and an old-school tory at
that. One can see him smile sar-
castically at such phases as make
the world safe for democracy and
yet in democratic days he did not
dare to attack this formula. His
plea for peace emphasized the i'm
pOverishment of the nations by a
continuance of the war, and he urged
them to make peace while there was
something to save.
The something of which the noble
lord was thinking was the aristocra-
tic principle. He desires to make
the world safe for aristocracy in
England and he is willing to accept
iunkerism in Germany if the rights
and prerogatives of the English aris-
tocracy can be rescued from the ris-
ing tide of democracy. If the mar
quis is not too old to appreciate the
revolutionary changes going on in
the world, the outburst against his
peace-at-any-price appeal should con-
vince him that England has travelled
far from the old affairs which seemed
so sacred to him in his youth and
before which, in his dotage, he still
burns incense.
Despite the marquis and his count

SCHOOL OF MINES

The University of Idaho has es-
tablished what Is known as the
miners short course" which opens
January 4 and runs eight weeks.
The entrance requirements are
simple. Seriousness of purpose and
ability tu-reaa- end -Mrite ligeRtiy
and to work ordinary problems In
are the necessary quail
fications. There is no age limit.
The equipment of the university
for mining and metallurgical work
is excellent, the assay laboratory is
the most complete in the west, and
the milling and metallurgical labora-
tories are unexcelled.
The tuition and the use OF the
laboratories is free to all. A deposit
amounting to $25 is required to de-
fray the cost of coal burned, tuxes
and chemicals used, and apparatus
broken. Other than this the only
expense is for board and room.
The subjects taught are miner
alogy and geology, assaying, ore
treatment and various other things
which will come under these sub
jects
The schedule is so arranged that
anyone desiring to take all the sub
jects may do so, or If preferred, may
concentrate his attention on that
part of the work in which he is par
ticularly interested.
