OLD WILL FOUND
GIVES TWENTY-FOUR THOUSAND
DOLLARS TO CATHOLIC
INSTITUTIONS.

A will, made forty-two years ago
and found in a rubbish heap after the
maker had been declared intestate and
letters of administration had been
granted, is upheld in an opinion just
filed by the Court of Appeals of Mary
land. The will was made by George
E. Hankey, a retired farmer of Fred
erick County, who died on December
20, 1915.
BY this decision ST. Mary Female
Orphan Asylum, of Roland Park, Md,
will get an estate of the net value of
$4,000, and Woodstock College will
get about $4,000. Cardinal Gibbons,
who is president of st. Mary, will re-
ceive the estate for the institution.
The paper declared to be the bona fide
will of Mr.. Hankey was filed in the
Orphans Court by the administrators,
with the statement that it had been
found among heap of waste papers
old boots and gum shoes, where il
had evidently been thrown by the tes
tator." The will was dated December
80. 1874.

CATHOLIC HOSPITALS
INE ABLE GOOD ACCOM-
PLlSHED BY RELIGIOUS.

There are now more than four hun
dred Catholic hospitals in the United
States, which care for about half a
million patients annually. The mod
ern battlefield has been the occasion of
bringing out in the open the strength
and beauty, the spirit of self-sacrifice,
which animates the hospital orders of
the Catholic Church, the conserver of
human life. The services rendered by
the Sisters to the wounded and dying
are conspicuous proof of that Chris
tian Charity by which the Church from
the beginning has striven by all possi-
BILE means to alleviate human suffer
ing. The hospital of today owes much
to scientific progress, generous endow-
ment and wise administrator; but
none of these can serve as a substitute
for the unselfish work of the men and
women who minister to the sick as to
the person of Christ Himself. How
the Church did strive, and how she
does strive to be the conserver of hui
man life! She had her Nosocomia for
the sick; her Brephotrophia for found
lings; her Orphanotrophia for orphans;
her Ptochia for the poor who were un-
able to work, her Gerontochia for the
aged, her Xenodochia for poor or in
firm pilgrims.

LONDON.

The Catholic Womens League has
started new venture. 1t is a club
for Catholic ladies in London. It is
hoped to make the club social sue
cess and an institution of Importance.
1t has hundred members. The fee
is fixed at guinea-$5.25-per mem
ber, with an entrance fee of half a
guinea and half fees to country mem
bers. The club rooms are in the offices
of the Catholic Women's League.
There are dining and drawing rooms,
reading, writing and rest rooms;
paper and telephones are supplied,
meals served, and members can intro
duce their friends ON payment of a
small charge per head. Later it is
hoped to provide sleeping accommoda-
tion for country ladies visiting London
and for war workers. The idea is yet
another link in the social chain which
is beginning to bind Catholics together.

BROOKLYN MAGISTRATE, A PROT
ESTANT, LAUDS CONCERN FOR
MAYNARD GIRLS.

Although | am a Protestant, | am
ashamed of the do-nothing policy of
Protestant bodies who have neglected
to- maintain an institution for the care
of unfortunate women who are being
brought daily into our courts" said
Magistrate o. Grant Esterbrook,
speaking last week before the Mems
Club of Bethany Presbyterian church,
Brooklyn, N. Y.
when women of this class who hap
pen to be Catholics are brought into
court" he continued, there is a rep
resentative of some Catholic institu-
tion to offer her help, protection and
a home. The same can be said Of the
Jews, but Protestants do not seem
alive to this question and are shirk-
ing a grave responsibility"
He declared that he would be glad
if in any way he might be able to
plant a seed which would grow and
branch out into a big movement to
adequately care for wayward Protes-
tant girls.

DIR. Maurice Francis Egan
AMERICAN MINISTER TO DEN
MARK ON A VISIT HOME.

1t is reported that DR.. Maurice Fran
els Egan, the Minister. from United
States to Denmark, will leave Copen-
hagen on February s, for two months
visit to the United States. He will be
accompanied by Mrs. Egan. DR.. Egan
comes to this country at time when
the proposed sale of the Danish West
Indies to the United States has be-
come an accomplished fact. We un-
derstand that the sale of these Islands
after long controversy was finally con-
summated, owing chiefly to the diplo-
matte skill of the American Minister.
DIR. Egan is we'll known to the
American public by reason of his long
services as university professor at
Notre Dame and at Washington, and
also through his novels, magazine
articles, and lectures. He is, in fact,
one of the most distinguished Catho.
lies of this country today.

Arrests Mexican Bishops
cARRANZA SEXES TWO PRE-
LATES WHO WERE RECENTLY
IN THIS COUNTRY.

Telegraphic dispatches from Mexico
City, dated January II, state that
word has been received there of the
arrest in Zacatecas of Archbishop
OroZco Jiminez of Guadalajara and
Bishop de la Mora of Zacatecas. The
charge against the prelates is agitation
against the de facto government.
Both Archbishop Jiminez and Bishop
de la Mora were in Chicago last year
while exiled from Mexico by Carranza.
Mgr. Kelly, President of the Catholic
Church Extension Society and Ameri-
can representative of the Mexican
Hierarchy, has already taken up the
case of the prelates' arrest with the
authorities at Washington.
The bishops were to face court
martial this week Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts, ranking Republican
member of the Senate foreign rela-
tions committee, urged the State de.
partment to make representations in
behalf of the eminent prelates. He
was advised of their plight by Cover
nor Mccall of Massachusetts.

BIG SISTER MOVEMENT
CAT LIC ORGANIZATION TO
LOOK AFTER DELI lNQU ENT
GIRLS IN CINCINNATI.

An important step in the protection
of the young girls of the city was
taken at the Bureau of Catholic Char
tiles, Cincinnati, o., recently, when a
Catholic Big Sister Society was or
ganized.
At the preliminary meeting the OBJ
ject of the society was explained by
the organizers, who for the past few
years have, with the assistance of
friends, undertaken the supervision of
girls who have been adjudged delin-
quent by the juvenile court and placed
on probation. Many unfortunate girls
have thus been saved. The number
has become so large that additional
help is required, and for this reason
the Big Sister organization becomes a
real necessity.

WILL COMBAT BIGOTRY
in FLORIDA
ARE INVITED TO
JOIN NEW ORGANIZATION.

The opening of the Catholic club in
Jacksonville, Fla, last week is ex-
pected to prove big factor in the
Staying of bigotry in that most bigoted
of American commonwealths. Hun
dreds of Protestants, as well as Cath
Olics attended the ceremonies which
included the deliverance of addresses
by Bishop Curley and officers of the
club and also by city officials and rep
resentatives of various non-sectarian
organizations of the city.
President William J. Power, in his
opening address, sounded the keynote
of the new club when he said: I'VE,
Catholics, are not going to be selfish
but will welcome non-Catholics not
only to membership but as officers
under the right of our constitution"

OPERATE IN PLAN TO REPAIR

In response to the request of Pope
Benedict that the German military
authorities permit, under satisfactory
guarantees, restoration of the Cathe-
dral of Rheims, Emperor William has
expressed readiness to cooperate in
this project, the Overseas News Agen-
cy says. The Catholic newspaper,
Volks Zeitung, of Cologne, as quoted
by the news agency, says it is author
lied to make the following statement:
THE emperor, IN reply to the Holy
Father, states that it is his endeavor
to preserve from the terrors of war
venerable places of religious worship
and monuments of art, which | con-
slider as the common property of hui
manity.' The emperor suggests condi-
tions under which such repairs could
be effected without affording the enc
my an opportunity for military meas
ures."

Death of Sister Stephanie
DEVOTED TEACHER IN ST. MAR
GARET'S ACADEMY is CALLED
SUDDENLY.

On the morning of January II, at st.
Sister nj. Stephanie Reid, after forty
two years of service in religion, pass
ed to her eternal reward. Her death
was great shock to those who knew
and loved her, as she had been in good
health until a week before her call.
On January 13 seemingly slight in
disposition necessitated a suspension
of class work, but toward the end of
the week this indisposition gave un-
mistakable signs of pneumonia, and

added another victim to it's heavy toll.

the Pro-Cathedral of st. Mary. Rev.
erend M. O'Brien, of st. Thomas par
ish, was celebrant of the Mass, with
Rev. ]. Burns and Rev. T. O'Connell
as deacon and subdeacon. Rev. Joseph
O'Neil was master of ceremonies. For
the past eight years Sister Stephanie
had taught the primary grades at st.
Margaret's Academy, and the con-
course of children and parents that
filled the church was fitting tribute
to her zeal and devotedness. In many
Minneapolis homes her influence was
felt as a benediction and the inmates
of these homes feel her loss as a per
sonal bereavement. Father Cullen
voiced this appreciation in sermon
filled with JUNCTION and fraught with a
deep significancy. He showed clearly
how Sister Stephanie's unobtrusiye
life exemplified the difference between

the standards of earth and heaven, and
gave to a materialistic world a pal
pable proof of the existence of the sup
ernatural.
Sister Stephanie was born in Men
dota in 1860. She went to the convent
school there when the Sisters of ST.
Joseph opened Mendoza as one of their
earliest missions. At the early age of
sixteen she entered the novitiate at
ST. Joseph's Academy, and from that
time until her death, she labored ear
nestly both in hospital and school to
advance the glory of God. She is sur
vived by two sisters and a brother,
Sister M. Thecla of the Sisterhood of
st. Joseph, Mrs. Barry of st. Paul, and
Robert Reid of Mendoza.

The Most Reverend George w.
Mundelein, Archbishop of Chicago, has
appointed the Rev. Edward F. Rice
Spiritual Director of the Metropolitan
Council of the Society of st. Vincent
de Paul in the Archdiocese of Chicago.
The Archbishop, in a long letter max
ing the appointment, outlines the
work for the new Director on the
broadest possible plan. He proposes:
First, that parish Conference of
st. Vincent de Paul be established in
every parish of the city, and even OF
the Diocese wherever it is possible.
He notes particularly the many cases
even in the so-called richer parishes
where persons, formerly well to do,
are in dire need of assistance and too
proud to beg. He adds, Even il
there be no real poverty to be relieved
in the parish, local Conference will
do two things: it's surplus income will
be doubly needed either by Sister
Conference in a poorer section of the
city, or by the many calls at the Cen
tral Office for the relief of all kinds
of distress.
Second, he suggests that a separate
Conference of st. Vincent de Paul be
| formed among the clergy, with two
classes of members, to be known as
life members and annual members,
each paying a specified fee.
Third, he points out the fact that
many persons are desirous of con-
i tributing to charity but are uncertain
as to the final disposition of their
donation. For this reason he sug-
gests that the Director make list
of the business men of the city as well
as of well-to-do Catholics, and that
they be approached in the name of
charity. The Archbishop heads this
list with the promise of subscrip-
tion of $1,000 each year until his
| death,

RETROSPECT OF FIFTY YEARS

derful encyclical, "Rerum Novarum.
In the other essays in this volume the
Cardinal treats of subjects of vital inn
portance and interest to the material,
political, and moral welfare of the
American people. Future generations
may be interested in studying the
views of an eminent man who, after
the service of God, prides himself upon
being patriotic American.
Future of America.
With regard to the future of Amer
lea, Cardinal Gibbons says: Very
few people now living have seen the
country in such distress as have seen
it. But have lived, thank God, to see
it in wonderful prosperity and to be-
hold it grown into one of the great
powers of the earth. Younger men
may tremble for the future of this
country, but l can have nothing but
hope when I think what we have al
ready passed through, for | can see
no troubles in the future which could
equal, much less surpass, those which
have afflicted us in bygone days. II
only the American people will hold
fast to that instrument which has been
bequeathed to them as the palladium
of their liberties-the Constitution OF
the United States-and fear and dis
trust the man who would touch that
ark with profane hands, the per-
manence of our institutions is as
sured."
He points out that in his youth men
feared the Catholic Church because
they thought her foreign and un-
American; yet the very Catholicity OF
/ most of the immigrants to this coun-
try has proven the most powerful fac
tor in welding then into one whole.
The second volume consists chiefly
of sermons and discourses that have
marked great anniversaries in the life
of the American Church. In the SER
mons on the Saints, and on The Life
to Come, he gives expression to the
hope of future happiness, hope with
out which this earth would be but
desert and the future but the black
est despair. He adds: Il believe both
| the American church and the Ameri-
can people to be precious fnq the sight
| of God, and designed, eaeh5one IN its@
proper sphere, for a glorious future.
These volumes will prove to the
general reader not only interesting
and instructive but of great value in
showing the views of the eminent
churchman on the history and develop
ment of the Catholic Church in this
country, and on the problems which
she has faced and overcome.

TORICAL VALUE.

Cardinal Gibbons, during the course
OF his long career in the Church in
America, has delivered many sermons
and discourses on public occasions.
For almost half a century the great
est public functions in the Catholic
Church in this country have been
graced by his venerable presence. He
has taken an active part in the up
building of Church and nation. His
fairness, broad view, and kindly criti-
cism of public affairs, have made his
voice heard and his opinions received
with respect by all classes and condi-
tions of men.
He has now, in the sunset of his
years, gathered together in two vol
umes the public utterances which he
himself considers to be of permanent
value with regard to the history of the
past fifty years in this country. He
says in the introduction, "I have lived
long time, and l have lived through
very critical time. Not only have
held office many years, but have held
Office during time of transition, when
the old order was changed The
spirit that actuates the selections
herein contained is found in the above
words: it is a spirit which endeavors
to show the transition from one order
to the other, and the reasons thereof
In speaking of the Vatican Council, a
description of which takes up nearly
two hundred pages, he says: "On the
Vatican Council, l am speaking for a
generation which, with the exception
of myself, has passed away. | am the
last living Father of the Vatican Coun-
Gil. Now, alone upon this earth, | can
report what happened within these
sacred walls-nct by hearsay, nor
through books, but from what | actu-
ally saw and heard.

of Labor and Capital are given in the

study, number of these Sisters have
studied in Europe, Music, Painting, the
Greek and Latin Classics and Archae-
ology.
The college will accommodate day
students as we'll as boarders, for the
desire of the Archbishop is primarily
to bring Catholic college training with
in easy reach of the young women OF
the city. 1t goes without saying that
a boarding college of such distinction
situated in the suburbs of the great
metropolis of the Middle West Will at
tract students from far and wide.
