Jail Break Frustrated.

A Jail delivery was attempted
Wednesday evening, but escape
of those who planned it was
frustrated by another inmate
notifying the jailer.
The two men who made the
attempt are leaned Denis Cregen
an lrishman, and a Russian
named Moses Grafchinco, which
cognomen, however, is supposed
an alias. They had obtained in
some way a fine saw, and they
made their way into the solitary
cell at the Jail, lifting off from
its hinges in some way the grated
door, and squeezing inside. Thore
they climbed up into the window
seat, where free from observat-
ion and hearing they proceeded
to saw out the bars. They had
cut one end Of one bar, and were
beginning upon another when the
jailer's attention was called to
what was doing. The would be
escapes were confined in the
cage.

Patriarch of Jerusalem
ILL FOUNDED RUMoRs-HE is IN
NAZARETH.

Regardless of the anguish which
their reports cause to the relatives, of
the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, who
are living in Rome, journalists con-
tinue to publish alarming news about
this prelate. The following are the
latest facts concerning the Patriarch,
Most Rev. Philip Camassei Some
days before the English troops entered
Jerusalem the Turkish authorities pro-
posed to the Patriarch to leave the
city, ,1and he, taking all circumstances
into account, decided that this was
the only course open to him. Owing
to the rumors circulated as to the
prelate's condition, the Vatican COM
municated with the Delegate Apostolic
at Constantinople. The result has
been that the Archbishop had the op-
tion of returning to Jerusalem, of re-
naming at Nazareth, or of setting out
for Rome. The second of these alter
natives has been chosen, so that the
Patriarch is living in peace at Naza-
reth, the guest of the Franciscans.

Roman Theologian Dead
FATHER BUccERoNI WAS GREAT
AUTHORITY IN MORAL
THEOLOGY.

Only a few weeks have elapsed
since the resignation of Rev. Januarius
Bucceroni from his Chair of Moral
Theology at the Gregorian Univer-
sity, Rome, was announced. The
great theologian has just passed away,
at the age of 76 years, amid express
sions Of regret in every part of. Rome.
For nearly thirty years he filled the
Chair in Rome. Among his former
pupils he counted Cardinals, Bishops,
and priests of many lands, the most
prominent among them being Cardinal
Billot who is one of the greatest liv-
ing dogmatic theologians. The Sol
emn Requiem for the soul of Father
Bucceroni was celebrated in the
Church of st. Ignatius, by the Right
Rev. Mgr. Hinsley, D. d., Rector of
the English College, a former pupil,
assisted by the students Of the same
institution. The choir of the South
American College rendered the music.
Father Bucceroni was considered
one of the greatest of living moral
theologians He was Neapolitan by
birth, and early joined the Jesuits. He
was also an author, and a consultor
of various Roman Congregations.

TO ERECT A SHRINE
BASILICA AT JERUSALEM IN
HONOR OF THE SACRED
HEART PROPOSED.

From the commencement of the war
a few pious souls had formed
the project of building at Jerusalem
a Basilica in honor of the Sacred
Heart. This project was taken up by
the Archconfraternity of Gethsemane
founded at Toulouse, France, and re-
suited in the solemn formulation of
the vow at the Chapel of the Vista
ton of Toulouse on the Feast of the
Sacred Heart last year. The project
is now being promoted enthusiastically
by wider public, since the conquest
of the Holy City opens the way to
realization, and it is hoped that the
Nations whose representatives partic-
ipated in the entry. into Jerusalem
will combine to make this Basilica an
international work of Thanksgiving for
the liberation of the sacred places
from the hands of the inffdel.

so far in advance at this time, he
might well hesitate about undertaking
the expense of completing it under
present conditions. The unanimous
sentiment of the priests at the meet

further the plans of the Archbishop.
Work on the interior is being
pushed rapidly as possible, and it is
likely that all that will be completed

the past four months, since the old

VARIETY OF DUTIES THAT FALL
TO PRIEST ON A BATTLEsHIP-
HE is REVERED BY OFFICERS
AND MEMS MOST ADAPTABLE
AT ALL TIMES.

A splendid appreciation of the work
of a navy chaplain is that given by
Joseph w. Cavanaugh of Portsmouth,
Va, a man of considerable service in
the U. S. Navy. He writes:
There is crew of approximately
/ 200 men attached to the writer's ship,
of which number SO per cent are of
the Catholic faith. This percentage
is subject to fiuctuation by reason of
transfers, expiration of enlistments,
shifting of the personnel, ETC.; but, be
it said, this is the lowest percentage
that has obtained on this ship dur
ing an experience of three years.
From the above it will be seen that
our padre has a fairly large num-
Der of souls to look out for.
Our padre is always available dur
ing the day to hear any mans confess
sion, and those desiring can, in limited
numbers, receive holy communion the
following morning in his room, where
he celebrates Mass daily. All chap.
lains try, as a rule, to have one gen
eral communion during a period OF
one or two months. A Sunday IS
chosen for the occasion and that fact
announced. On the following Satur-
day afternoon and evening the Cath
olic chaplains "swap ships This lis
done on the same principle, and for
the same reasons, that periodical re-
treats are held in parishes. Our padre
has inaugurated this system on board
ships with gratifying results.
The visiting chaplain generally
takes room in the crew space fol

hands. He wears his uniform and

confessional he makes tally of tht
