exasperating when we remember

Some do not have as much value

lot of chickens for sale, another

waste of money, it makes a very

The county's expense account
for November amounted to $751;
OO8 O8. This single month is
nearly 100 per cent more than
for the entire year Of 1879. There
is much waste in these expendi
turas and there ought to be a
way to stop it. A so-called
health officer gets $500 of the
waste.

Italian Catholic Societies
WILL ORGANIZE ALONG LINES OF
CATHOLIC FEDERATION OF
AMERICA.

An important convention of the rep
resentatiyes of the organization
known as the. Catholic Action of
Italy, was held in Rome the first three
days of February. Count Dalla Tore,
president Of the Popular Union Of
Italian Catholics, occupied the chair,
supported by the presidents of the
four Catholic members of the cham
Der of deputies, and ninety-eight rep
resentatives of diocesan committees.
The principal subjects OF discussion
were plans to secure closer organiza-
ton in the departments of Catholic
action: and it was decided to form a
committee in every parish to work up
through district and diocesan bodies
to the central authority, the Popular
Union.
A message expressing homage and
loyalty, and endorsing his peace pro
posals, was sent to4thc Pope.

A PRIEST HERO
INCIDENT AT VERDuN. SHOWS
COURAGE AND FIDELITY
OF TWO PRIESTS.

A singular act of heroism was per
formed by a military chaplain at a
fort in the vicinity of Verdun, during
heavy attack by gunfire by the Ger.
mans. A young officer was crossing
a very dangerous part of the battle
zone, that was being swept by shells
and bullets from the German guns.
The officer was struck and fell, and
at once the Catholic chaplain sought
the permission of the officer com
manding to go to the fallen mans
assistance. The permission was re-
fused, as such an act meant certain
death. But the priest, refused to be
repulsed, and after many. entreaties
permission was unwi1lingly given.
He set out on his errand of mercy,
but he, too, was struck down by the
enemies fire. and his body lay short
distance away from the fort. Then,
to the great surprise of the officer, a
soldier made at once for the spot.
He was French priest, an ordinary
poilu in the army. He reached the
body of the fallen chaplain, and bend
ing over him, opened the breast of
his. tunic and took therefrom the pyx
containing the Sacred Hosts. The
vessel had been torn and broken by
the bullet that had slain the chaplain,
and the soldier-priest kneeling down,
under the whitening fire of the en-
omy consumed the Blessed Sacrament
that had been desecrated by bullets.

"The Ecclesiastical Review 1t is
contributed by the Rt. Rev. Bishop
Carkie44, who shows that of all the
countries adhering to the Latin rite,
Italy is the only one possessing a
more numerous episcopate than the
United States.
We have IA provinces, SO dioceses,
and two Wears apostolic. Even
France, while she has three more
provinces than are in this country,
has 10 fewer Bishops than we have,
Were the Vatican Council to recon
vene today, over 700 more Bishops
would be entitled to take part than
was the case in 1870. From the vari-
Gus statistics cited, the Bishop of
Hetalonia is able to point out that

ST. PAUL DIOCESE
EFFORT TO ENROLL ALL THE
SCHOOLS CT THE NATION nv
RED CROSS WoRK-ST. PAUL
DIOCESE TO BE ORGANIZED.

The War Council Of the American
Red Cross has endorsed movement
urging an intensive effort between
February IL and %, for the enrolment
of every public, private and pafechial
school in America as a Junior Red
Cross auxiliary. The sympathetic at
titude of the Church in the work of
the Red Cross and its generous and
chiEalrous response to the call of suf-
fering humanity everywhere, will,
doubtless, cause pastors, teachers and
pupils in our Catholic schools to strive
energetically to further this work.
Junior Red Cross work will be or
ganized in the parochial schools and
academies of ST. Paul under one gen
eral: head; while those of Minneapolis
will follow a similar plan. The Catho.
lie schools and academies throughout
the Diocese of st. Paul will work along
lines already laid down for their guid.
ance. Monthly reports of all Catholic
Junior Red Cross work will appear in
the pages of The Catholic Bulletin
The pastors and teachers in our schools
outside tho Twin Cities arc. urgently
requested to send in these reports fol
their respective parishes and institu
tiols.

4 CAT HOLIC DRIVE

the various Catholic forces of the city
into a new and happy consciousness
of their unified power There is To-
cal pride, indeed, in the showing made
by the forces at work in each parish,
and wholesome rivalry among these
units; but the joy Of tugginS with
worthy rivals in a cause such as this,
has wakcned in the Catholics of the
city, a pride in the loyal, active, self
sacrificing Catholicity of Minneapolis.
Other campaigns for worthy Catholic
objects have been put on for five or
ten days, after weeks and even
months of preparation. This campaign
was organized in three weeks, and
the bulk OF the work was done in
four hours; yet for the first time, the
result has gone above the mark set
! by the campaign managers.
Generous donations from non-Catho-
lie sources furnish another cause for
gratitude. Among the most notable
contributions are those of the Peavey
Elevator Co., $500; the Pillsbury Ele-
Vator Co., $500; l.. S. Donaldson,
$500; Mr.. Edgar, of the Bellman,
$3.50; Il. NJ. Bennett, $3.50; the Pow
| ers Mercantile Company, 5000; the

LIKE MOSES OF OLD
HEROIC CHAPLAIN DIES BEFORE
HOLY CITY.

There could be no greater tribute
to the heroism and patriotism of the
Catholic clergy than the latest mill
tary dispatches from the various
fronts. The most pathetic, and, per-
haps, the most romantic. tells of the
death of Rev. Bernard. Kavanagh, G.
IS. R., acting Chaplain to the British
Forces, who died of wounds received
in action just outside. the Holy City
of Jerusalem, on December 81 last.
Father. Kayanagh asked to be at
tached to the Palestine Force for the
special reason that the great desire
of his heart was to help drive the
oppressive Turk from the Holy
Places, Across the deserts and wastes
of Palestine he had marched with the
troops. comforting them when wound
#ed, and then, like. Moses, the promised
land was denied him, and he died
with the glad knowledge that Jeru.
salem was at last free.
