God Himself rent the rock in twain.
The light is very dim at the top of the
stone-steps. There are pillars support
ing the roof, from which numbers of
lamps are hung. Walls and roof to-
gether produce a subdued effect of
gliding and ornamentation. At the
further end the affairs stand side by
side. The first commentaries the
tenth and eleventh Stations. Here the
Cross was taken from Jesus, and His
garments were roughly torn from His
bruised and bleeding body. Here He
was stretched upon the Cross, nailed
to it, raised up, and here He died.
The high Greek altar that stands
over the place which round disc
marks as that whereon the Cross was
planted, commentaries not the most
grievous but the most comforting of
these scenes. At the first altar all is
sadness and horror. Even at the Sec
ond, the altar of Our Lady's Dolors,
her sorrow when the dead body Of her
Son was laid in her arms is upon us;
but the Crucifxion did not consist of
agony alone; Calvary was the door
through which Jesus passed to His
Father, leaving suffering behind him.
His death was indeed His supreme
victory. And Calvary, approached
with thoughts Of dread and sorrow,
left with peace and thanksgiving, and
a wondrous feeling of the nearness
and the glory of God.-The Ave Maria.

0'CoNNER's TRIBUTE
TO ABRAHAM LINC0L n
Spirit of Great Emancipator Has
Never Left Our Souls.
Germany Would Revive the SLAYER.
Lincoln Crushed Out.
RIGHT MAKES MIGHT.

Springfield, ILL.,, Dec. 6.-Standing g.
at the tomb of Abraham Lincoln to-
day, T. P. O'Connor, member of the
British parliament, declared in an ad-
dress that "there never was a mo-
ment in the history of the country
since the death of the illustrious man
by whose ashes we stand today when
the inspirations and lessons of his
life were more needed by his people
and his country"
Lincoln Speaks to us.
CAS- man." declared Mr.. O'Connor,
"Lincoln stands as much alive as
though he were still among us. He
is a flaming torch which leads on the
inner soul Of every American, whether
he is standing by the honor of his
country in his work at home or
marching over barbed wire trenches
against shell and cannon, to wounds
or death. What American can be cow
ardly when his courage inspires
What American can be selfish when
his utter unselfishness is recorded in
every page of his history? What
American can prefer the claims of am
bition or party in face of his forget
fulness of all personal and partisan
feeling before an imperiled nation?
What American can entertain or toll
crate the very thought of a divided
allegiance in face of his passionate
patriotism and of the inflexible resolu-
tion with which he fought for united
nation?
"Can any man doubt where he
would stand if in the crisis through
which his country is now passing he
was still the ruler? What was the
first and most fundamental of Lin
coins convictions? Was it not pas
sionate love of liberty and passion
ate hatred of slavery? Is there any
difference in essentials between the
enslavement of the negro and such
enslavement as Germany today preach
es in her gospel of world domination,
and practices while her sinister mas
terry lasts in Belgium, France and
Serbia, as her blood-stained partner
does in the plains and mountains of
Armenia? ......

the mountain-side. The walls and roof
are outlined roughly in the gloom. The
floor, worn to hollows by the passing
of hundreds of thousands of feet, is
bare and uncovered now as it ever
was. Two affairs stand in the Grotto,
where Mass is said at break of day.
No sound comes from the outside.
The world is very far away. Only
the tinkle of the servers bell tells
through the dimness of the grey dawn
that Jesus Christ has come again on
the altar, to the place where once on
earth, being in an agony, He prayed

But lower again is the Chapel of the
Flagellation. A double stairway in
the wall opens onto a courtyard.
where flowers struggle through pieces
of broken masonry, through pillars
(yellow stone like all around) of a
fallen balustrade; and a strip of flag
sing lies between the crumbling flight
of steps at the gate, and the cloister
To the right, more tagging extends to
the door of the little old chapel. 1t is
small-twenty feet or little more in
length-and wide, with open doors
that let in the sunshine. There is
mating on the floor, prie-dieux here
and there; statues, rather tawdry it
may be; and pictures with artificial
flowers in vases set before them. 1t
strikes one altogether as being full,
yet poor.
Under the high altar is small
piece of porphyry pillar, grey, black
ened and shining in places. This is
what remains of the pillar at which
Jesus was scourged. Smaller portions
of it are venerated in the Basilica of
the Holy Sepulchre, also in the church
of st. Pudentiana in Rome; and away
across the little court, yet another
fragment of the same pillar is shown
1t also lies under an altar; for a
new, more empty yet richer and more
costly church has been erected in re-
cent years on old foundations that
were uncovered to the left of the
gate of entrance. One visits this new
church, but it is the old Franciscan
chapel that draws one back. Poor
tawdry, it has seen many holy souls
kneeling before it's shrine; and in the
passing of the long years the prayers
that have risen from it have followed
it's poverty and it's age.
Crowned With Thorns.
In the Basilica of the Holy Sepul
chre there is a chapel dedicated to
the Growing of Thorns, and in it is
a piece of rock on which, according
to tradition, Our Lord was seated
when they circled His brow with a
crown Of thorns, and placed the mock
cry Of a reed sceptre in his hands
1t is we'll to have this chapel, bare and
underground as it is, in which to ven
crate these sacred memories; for the
place itself where Our Lord was thus
crowned with thorns is nowadays nc
place of prayer. 1t is not open tc
Christian pilgrims. 1t forms part OF
that Turkish barrack occupying the
spot where once stood the tribunal Of

right of humanity and the divine right
Of kings, or, as we would say, the
kaiser and the liberty of the world.
Today, as Lincoln said, there is but
one duty-to fight 1t is true today,
as it was in Lincoln's day, that though
hitherto in the worlds history might
made right it is for us and for our
times to reverse the maxim and to
show that right makes might.
''I know he said, that liberty is
right and so do we. Like him, we
hope that peace will come soon, but
like him, we want it so to come as
to be worth the keeping in all future
time Finally, can we do better than
obey the imperishable appeal from
Gettysburg to dedicate ourselves so
that the nation may have new birth
of freedom and that the government
of the people, by the people, and for
the people, shall not perish from this

His Spirit Lives Today.
"Spirit of Lincoln, do not call up
on you to come today to us from this
tomb of yours. Your spirit has never
left us. In hours Of solitude when
we are thrown back on our own souls,
that spirit has ever whispered to our
inner ear words of comfort and ap-
peal. Rather let me say to your peo-
pie that it is for them to be of, and
in, and with, your spirit, so that, like
you, they may be worthy of this great
hour in their history, and, like you,
be ready to strive, and hope, and suf-
fer, to the end"

Outside the walls of Jerusalem the
ground falls steeply away into the
narrow ravine through which, in win
ter time, the Brook of Cedron flows
Beyond the riverbed, which is dry for
the greater part of the year, the Mount
of Olives rises up. Even today there
are parts of it that do not belle it's
name,-parts where, grey, snarled,
loWgrowing, the olive-trees stand A
great block of buildings belonging to
the Russians, and tract given to the
burying of pilgrims of that nation,
take up a wide stretch of the lower
slopes; but between these there is a
strip of land that belongs to the
Franciscans,-an olive garden, begin
ming at the place where our Blessed
Saviour wept over the city, and ending
near the brook in the Garden of Geth-
semane.
The Garden is walled in; and for its
better protection the only entrance is
made so small and low, with masonry
as thick above as at it's sides, that one
must bend down to enter. Only a
toddling child could pass upright
through that little gate. There is
barely quarter of an acre inside. 1t
slopes slightly down toward Cedron.
A gravel path encircles the enclosure,
and against the walls there are Sta
tions of the Cross in bas-relief of
marble. To the right Of the entrance
there is a Pieta, protected by a rooted
case with a front of glass. The cen
tre Of the Garden, shut in again by
high iron railings, is filled with flow
ers,-marigolds and pansies wallflow-
ers, anemones, and under the great old
olive tree the ground is carpeted with
violets of sweetest scent. 1t is too
bright too full of peace, too lovingly
tended to bring before the mind the
Agony that was suffered there. 1t is
only by leaving the Garden and cross
ing the rough path which climbs
Mount Olivet that one comes to a fit
setting for the first mystery of the
Rosary.
Place of Scourging.
A narrow street passing between
two high walls separates the court of
PLATE, where Jesus was condemned,
from the place of scourging. The
court is high above the level of the
street, and steep, stony slope lead
ing from it has replaced the stairs
down which Our Lord was led,-the
Holy Stairs that are now venerated in
Rome.
The Grotto Of Agony is low and dark
and gloomy. Some shallow steps lead
down to it. It's rocky walls have re-
mained untouched through all these
centuries. What light there is comes

PART AMERICAN FORCES
 TO TRAIN IN CUBA


 The Government of Cuba has offered in a most friendly spirit to the Gov ernment fthe United States the use of training grounds in that Republic for the American forces.
 @This generous offer has been accept td by this Government, and careful consideration has been given to the question as to which of the American forces would be most benefited by training in the Island of Cuba.
 This question has now been determ- ined, and American forces will proceed to the eastern end of Cuba for training at an early date.
 The action on the part of the Presi- dent Menocal in making this friendly offer is considered as further proof of Cuba's desire to give cordial cooper ation to the United States of America and to be of every assistance to it in the war which both countries are now waging for the rights of humanity against the Imperial German Govern ment.-Official Bulletin.

Little Rock, Aug. 21-Because of conflicting statutes, county judges, will find it very difficult to build any thing more thar cheap culverts until the Legislature can change the law about the building of bridges. This was brought out by the dilemma of the county judge of Bradley county who wants to build S19,000 bridge, and who finds that he cannot do so. A new law provides that no county judge shall enter into any contract unless the quorum court has previous ly made an appropriation for the full by the new provides that quorumet amount. An old statute, not repealed court cannot appropriate more than 90 per cent of the probable revenue In many instances it will be impossible to harmonize these two statutes, and in consequence the county judge will be helpless, and he quorum court .s;e s;e:,net give any relief, for the total cost Of project might greatly ex- ceed the prescribed 90 per cent of the county annual revenue
