In Glendale where he worked for
a few months he gave the same ex-
ample of truly Christian life. After
working four or five hours on Sunday
morning, he would come to the late
Mass and receive Holy Communion,
unaware that by so doing he was CIV

AN AFRICAN MARTYR.

A year ago, a Moslem rising led to
the temporary ruin of the Christian
settlement of the Sacred Heart at
Daga-Dima, in the country of the Gal
las, Abyssinia. In this bloody perse-
cution five of the Christian neophytes
lost their lives. Among them, one
called Bacha-Tehokol, deserves to be
classed among the martyrs. After val
iantly fighting against the Moslems he
was taken prisoner He was called
upon to recite the prescribed form by
which he was to ALLURE Christ in order
to become a follower of Mahomet; if
he acquiesced, he was promised life,
if he refused, he was to prepare for
death. Given this alternative our he
roic Christian did not hesitate, but
brayely replied that he preferred death
to denying his faith and becoming a
Mussulman. At the same instant, one
of these fanatics who stood behind
him, thrust lance into his back, and
Immediately all the others who were
present, surrounded him and pierced
him from every side The soul of
our generous Christian was soon in
Heaven to receive the martyrs palm.

FATHER ALBERT 5oTTYs LAT
EST LETTER.

This Belgian Foreign Missionary of
Mongolia tells the S. p. f. in recent
letter something about the field where
he has now been for several years:
Without doubt many of our Chris
tians are grouped around the church,
but large number Of the catechumens
are scattered in no fewer than | 1857
region. Such a statement explains the
hard labor which the missionaries
must undertake to find their newly
made children and the difficulty of
their long journeys.
THE famine, which lasted about
eleven months was the occasion Of
many conversions. Their sufferings
led the paganS to the missionary, who
by extending bodily help also succeed
ed in reaching the soul. 1t is true
that many families of the older Chris
tians have left the country to avoid
the plague, but though Eastern Mon
golia no longer counts them among its
faithful, they are not lost to the
Church.
THE Seminary for Native Priests
has given us two more apostles. On
the other hand, the ranks Of the clergy
have been sadly depleted. During the
space of six years our vicariate did not
record the death Of single mission
airy, but last year, from May to July,
four priests, each having been many
years in China, passed to the other
world. Their loss is very badly felt
at present, as the effects Of the fam
inc will last some time, and as I have
said misery and privation mean a
large harvest for the mission"

EDITOR PAYS TRIBUTE TO SIS

Mr.. Walter Walker, editor of The
Grand Junction, Colo, Sentinel, paid
the following beautiful tribute through
his paper TO two members of the Sis
tiers OF Charity order, blood sisters,
who recently died there-Sisters Mar
guerite and Mary Aloysius Heffernan
Today's Sentinel announces the
death OF Sister Aloysius. sister supe-
rior of St. Mary's hospital in this city,
one of the noblest and sweetest women

to know.
Just a few days ago we chronicled
the death of Sister Marguerite. an
other of those women of rare and no.
bic qualities whose cherished duty it
was to help in the great work at ST.
Mary's.
Sister Aloysius and Sister MargUer-

great and self-sacrificing orders of the
Catholic Church, but they were also

REQUEST FOR THE AFRICAN
MISSIONS.

In good old Catholic times, we find
throughout Europe that, not only the
very wealthy, but also people of mod
crate means, seldom left this world
without making provision for Masses
to be said for their souls. In many
of the beautiful and historic churches
of the old world, there are chapels,
erected by noble and princely families
who left requests for Masses to be
said in perpetuity for Them at these
affairs.
We may compare that age with our
own and fiatter ourselves that we have
made great strides sins progress along
all lines, but to the thoughtful tourist,
these memorial chapels and Masses. in
perpetuity reveal a strong spirit sof
faith and a realization of what our
accountability to God may cost us in
Purgatory. The strenuous life of the
>materialistic Goth century, the mad
rush for pleasure and excitement,
leave little thought for the hereafter,
even among good people. However,
now and then, Catholics make provis-
ion in their wills for Masses to be said
for them after death.
The Sodality of ST. Peter Claver is
the recipient of $500 for Masses, from
the estate of man in Nebraska, lately
deceased. Besides the relief this will
bring to the. departed benefactor, it
is a great charity to the African mis-.
sionaries, for these Mass stipends
help support the valiant soldiers of
the Cross in Africa.
The month of November, consecrat-
ed to the Holy Souls in Purgatory is a
fitting time to, remind our Catholic
people to make provision in their wills
for their own needs after death, and
we ask them to have the charity to
make some of these requests in favor

THE PLAGUE IN AFRICA.

Many Of our people have rebelled
against the influenza ban; others,
though approving of it, have felt keen
ly the deprivations imposed
The Inconvenience and suffering to
which we have been subjected are
light compared to what the poor ne
groes in Africa have to endure. A
missionary writing to the Sodality of
st. Peter Claver gives us an idea of
their sufferings: The roads are all
closed on account of smallpox, plague
and meningitis. Nobody can go any
where without a letter. Many people
do not get the sacraments at all, be-
cause as soon as one gets smallpox
the house is surrounded with hedge
and the people of the house are told
to separate to go in the high grass
where they are left alone for six or
eight months. Nobody knows how
they are getting along, so very few
get to see a priest; sometimes an at
tendant asks for catechist and the
latter comes for us and conducts us
to the sick person-always keeping
outside the enclosure. The priest and
doctor are the only persons who are
allowed to visit those afflicted with the
plague. Food is brought only half
way to the camps; the attendant who
looks after the sick goes for it and
brings it within the enclosure.
This month had sixteen sick calls
of which eleven were fatal Some
times go out in the morning and can
just manage to come back before dark.
My bicycle has seen troubles and
won't hold out much longer. When
my bike is finished, I'll have to walk
it and sleep for the night somewhere
near my poor darkies. But God is
good and He no doubt will provide as
He always does. Hii&l sds

You were my joy, dear-my ALL"

a.
On Christmas Eve the lady of car
ram took her lilies to the little church
in Goolong. She put them beside the
Tabernacle, and left one cluster be-
fore the Crib. AS she knelt in the quiet
little church, she felt suddenly very
tired, like little child who comes to
say goodnight to his father after q
long days play.
What a gift she had for the Holy
Child? Nothing better than lilies?
And then she made last sacrifice,
She sacrificed the desire of having
him back, the desire that he should
learn of her great love, the desire
that he should write to her
il he were wounded dying.
kShe sacrificed the little proud desire
that he should know that it was she,
not Betty, who wrote Soul Songs.
She placed her sacrifice before the
altar and went away, On Christmas
morning there was a withered bunch
Of cornfiowers before the Crib. The
sacristan swept it away

The little maid was weeping when
Miss Arran came back from the early
Christmas Mass.
"Oh Miss Elizabeth,
| there were a lot of papers packed
round the pretty vases Miss Betty
sent for Christmas and I

She thrust crumpled sheet into
| Miss Abrams hands, and there, looking
up at her, was Meagher Delane's face.

"He rode through Goolong, with
Comrade Death, on a white horse;

picture is my Christmas gift, and it
came wrapped round Betty's present!
She told me she packed the vases
carefully herself. She did not even
glance at this. All! Betty, Betty.
But we are forgetting. Come, libby,
you and l, will pray for him., Before
the Christmas season was over, an
other gift came for the lady of AR.

at the Gates of Death.

two or three poor Christians and neo-
with some pagans to make use of their

in bringing the pagans into the
Church, and it was the pleasant task
of the missionary to visit these fam
lilies in order TO cast out the old i'm

splendid group of Sisters and nurses at
ST. Mary's have been almost hercu-
lean. But daytime and nighttime have
seen the service and the ministrations
go steadily on at st. Mary's. +
And this labor of service and this
labornof'love have been directed by
the Sisters al ST. Mary's, led by Sister
SuperiorpAloysius, with the same spirit
of devotion, of tenderness and Of seem
ingly tireless energy that through the
centuries has characterized the service
of the great Catholic Church's Sister
hoods in the hospitals, on the battle
fields or wherever disaster and war
and pestilence have piled up the tolls
of sickness and death.
Under the strain and the demands
of the work which they loved and to
which they were so devoted, these two
Sisters-sisters by. the ties of blood
and sisters by the ties of a faith that
is glorious-have fallen and their la
bors are ended. And what blessings
to mankind are the lives Of such sis

The memory Of these two minister

Marguerite, who sacrificed themselves
in the service of others, will long be
