FAITH In HANGCHOW
THE CHURCH IN HANGcHoW HAS
BEEN CELEBRATING THIRD
CENTURY OF ESTABLISHMENT.

The third century of the establish
ing of the Faith in Hangchow was re-
Gently celebrated. Bishop Faveau, G..
M, writing of this happy event, says
that the church in HangchoW from
1911 until the end of the seventeenth
century was the most fourishing of
all China.
Then came the prosecutions of the
eighteenth century, which completely
wiped out almost every vestige of the
Faith. When Bishop Delaplace began
his work in 1860, taking possession of
a church that had been converted into
a pagoda, he found in all West Che
Kiang only two small stations, count
ing in each about four or five hundred
Christians.
h The work of reconstruction has
been slow and painful, but thousand
conversions have been made every
year. 4 The bones ofithe ancient mis-
sionaries repose in a large cave near
Hangchow, and no doubt these heroic
apostles intercede for their compan
! ions on earth.

A feature of the shakeup in the

Japan and the Vatican
WILL STUDY EDU.
cATIoNAL CONDITIONS IN
ROME.

While the Press is quite correct in
announcing the approaching arrival of
a Japanese delegation to the Holy
See, it is premature to say it goes
to Rome for the purpose of establish
ing diplomatic legation to the Vati-
can. The end for which the delega-
tion goes to Rome is the study of
higher education and the establish
ment of a modus vivendi on advanced
teaching impaired by Catholics in
Japan. For several years the Society
OF, Jesus and tho Order of st. Dominic,
with other Catholic bodies, have been
in the very van of higher education
in Toxic. But this purpose of the
delegation does not exclude diplo
matte mission to the Holy See. In
fact, it is not improbable that both
objects are kept in view, though only
the educational one is avowed.

Belgian National Fete
CORNER OF EARTH IN ENGLAND
WILL BE FOREVER BELGIUM. #

.t
The Belgian national fete brought
a brilliant assembly to Westminster
cathedral in London recently. Prin-
cess Napoleon, the Belgian minister
and others were present at the Mass
and the 'tTe Deum' which followed.
In the afternoon there was the great
patriotic gathering in the Queen S
Hall, at which the Prime Minister
made speech. A touching ceremony
took place between these two events.
Mgr. Carton de Wiart consecrated at
Kensal Green Catholic cemetery a
beautiful Calvary which has been set
up over the graves of forty Belgian
soldiers, who died there from wounds
at the commencement of the war.
The names of the dead, drawn from
all parts of Belgium and all sections of
the service, are carved on the cross
round which they are gathered.
After blessing the cross Mgr. Carton
de Wiart, who was surrounded by a
group of well-known Belgian officers,
knelt and kissed the base, and then
with the Belgian flag held at the sa-
flute to the dead, all present sang the
.Brabanconne on this corner OF
earth that win be forever Belgium
lfor the heroes who rest therein.

Central Verein Meeting
THE APOSTOLIC DELEGATE WAS
RESENT-BISHoP BUSCH
URGES PoPE,s PLAN.

Support, of German Roman Catho
lies for the peace efforts of Pope
Benedict was urged at a meeting OF
the German Catholic Central Verein
last Monday, in st. Louis, by Right
Reverend Joseph Busch, of ST. Cloud
Mimi. Bishop Busch said:
Il feel that the members of this
organization would not be transgress-
ing their rights of citizens if they
were to formulate petition urging
the government to consider the pope s
plea for universal peace. This plea
was not hasty utterance, but was
long thought out. 1t contains moth
ing to conflict with the principles of
any nation.
1t was learned that, coincident with
the address Of Monsignor John Bon
zano, the German Roman Catholic
Central Vcrein had decided to drop
the word German from it's title 1t
probably will be known after this con-
vention as the Catholic Central Yer
Elm, it was said.
Monsignor Bonzano told the conven-
ton that the greatest evil growing
out of the present war would be the
spread of socialistic doctrines. He
declared that the Catholic Church
must be ready to counteract such doc
trines.

Such are the principal bases where
on we believe the future reorganiza-

They are of a nature to render inn
possible the return of similar con-
flicts and to prepare solution of the
economic question, SO important for
the future and for the material we'll
being of all belligerent states.
Therefore, in presenting to you, who
direct at this hour the destinies of the
belligerent nations, we are eager to
see them accepted and to see thus the
conclusion at an early date of the
terrible struggle, which more and
more appears a useless massacre.
The whole world recognizes that
the honor of the armies of both sides
is safe. Incline your ears, therefore,
to our prayer. Accept the fraternal
invitation which we send you in the
name of the Divine Redeemer, the
Prince of Peace. Reflect on your very
grave responsibility before God and
before man.
On your decision depends the re-
pose and the joy of innumerable
families, the life of thousands of
young people; in a word, the happi-
ness of people for whom it is your
absolute duty to obtain their welfare.
May the Lord inspire your decision
in conformity to His very Holy Will.
May God grant that while meriting
the applause of your contemporaries
you will also obtain in the future gen

AS for us, closely united in prayer
and in penitence with all those faith
full souls which sigh for peace, we
implore you to ask light and counsel
of the Divine Spirit.

Dear Madam:
/ congratulate you on your readi-

organize the women Of st. Paul into
several bands of active workers, who
will give as much of their time as they
can spare from their home duties to
prepare materials for use in hospitals
and sanitary encarnpments, where the
sick and the wounded of the American
army will be gathered to find COM
fort and regain their health. This is
work of singular patriotism and re-

success it merits.
Our Catholic women, am sure, will
prove themselves your devoted CO.
laborers, and our priests will hurry
to rally them around you. Please
call on our several pastors and ex-
plain to them your plans and your
hopes. Tell them what YOU wish
them to- do for the Red Cross, and
gladly. l promise you, they will assist
you in every way within their reach.
Very sincerely,
