PHOTOS OF DEAD
X. OF C. SEND PICTURES RELA.
TIVES OF AMERICAN DEAD
ABROAD.

The close relatives and friends of
all the American soldiers who are
buried in the cemetery at Langres,
France, have been made the recipi-
ents by the K. of G.. overseas COM
mission, of two photographs-one
showing the graves, and the second,
military exercises being held at the
little cemetery. Several K. of C. sec
retaries procured the names of the
next of kin of the men who died in
action and are buried at Langres. 1t
was decided to take a photograph of
the graves which are marked by lit
tie, white crosses, showing the care
which the French people of the city
have taken of the heroic dead of their
sister Republic.
At the K. of G. headquarters in
Paris, thousands of letters have been
received by families of soldiers who
fell in the great American offensives,
their loved ones. All of the CORE
spondence has been given prompt at
tention, and the desired picture and
information have been forwarded by
the Knights who had their Secretaries
scattered about France, Belgium and
the Rhineland to procure the photo
graphs.

FILIPINOS AND CHURCH

that is, people with Western ideals.
They looked toward Rome, and .Eu-
rope, and America. 1t is the
only Malay or Oriental race that is
Christian They were not like the
Mohammedan or Buddhist, who de-
spise Western civilization as inferior.
They learn easily, and the most
striking fact in our whole experience
in the Philippines is the eagerness
with which the common Filipino agri-
cultural laborer sends his children TO
school to learn English. There is no
real difference between the educated
and ignorant Filipino that cannot be
overcome by the education of one gen
Grafton. They are capable people in
the sense that they can be given a
normal intellectual development by
the same kind of education that is
given in our common school system
And in 1914, during the Philippine
committee hearing, Mr.. Taft praised
the racial solidarity" of the Filipinos.
Whom Have the Filipinos to Thank
For All This?
There can be no question as to the
correctness of such views, borne out
by these and other competent wit
nesses. Nor should there be any ques-
ton as to the influence which aided
the Filipinos in attaining the intel
lectual level and character standards
referred to. This influence is no other
than the strength and light of the
Gospel and the teaching and ministra-
tion of the missionaries. 1t is a sig
nificant fact-and one borne out by
Mr.. Taft and other observers-that
no other members of the Malay race
have attained to the heights reached
by the Filipinos. This means that
neither in Java, under Dutch, nor else
where. under British influence, were
those results obtained which were
achieved in the Philippines under
Spanish rule and through Catholic in
fluence. The Philippines owe a great
debt to the bearers of the Cross of
Christ, who labored for centuries so
zealously and patiently among their
people.

IRISH AND LEAGUE
LEAGUE TO REJECT, IRISH DE
MANDS, SAYS COMMISSIONER.

The cause of Irish freedom has been
predetermined to be completely aban-
doned by the League of Nations, John
A. Murphy, American Commissioner
for Irish Independence to Paris, de-
clared on his arrival in this country.
This is the reason, he said, that the
advocates of Irish independence will
not let matters rest until the league
deigns to act. -..,
While in Paris,'' he said, ''the in
formation came to me from sources
of high authority and undisputable
authenticity that the settlement of the
Irish question, which was placed in
the hands of Premier Clemenceau, as
president of the peace conference, has
received a secret consideration and
decision.
This was done before President
Wilson left Paris, and it was known
to Secretary Lansing that nothing
would be done to settle the claims Of
Ireland by the peace conference.

IRISH CLERGY
BIGOTS HAVE BEEN MAKING A
NEW ATTACK UPON THEM.

Bigots in London have been max
ing a new attack on the Irish clergy.
A few weeks ago a letter appeared
in the press from Sir William Ridg-
way, stating that those, who thought
Ireland was prosecuted, ought to know
that no Catholic priest in Ireland paid
income tax, and that this wealthy
class" was entirely free from the bur
den, because they declared they had
no fixed stipends, while Anglican
clergymen had to make return, in
Guiding their Easter offerings
This epistle was not left long unan-
swered A non-Catholic Irish solici-
tor writes to say that he knows the
Catholic clergy in Ireland pay their
equitable and proportionate contribu-
tion of income tax the same as any
one else. A further contradiction
comes from priest, who says he has
been paying income tax for years; and
he adds without any allowance for
wife or children!'

IRISH RECTOR DEAD
MGR. MICHAEL o'RIoRDAN, REC
TOR OF THE IRISH COLLEGE,
ROME, EXPIRES AFTER A LONG
ILLNESS.

Mgr. Michael O'Riordan, Rector of
the Irish College in Rome, died We'd
nesday, August 27. He had been dan
gerously ill in the Spring, but had
recovered sufficiently to be moved
from the hospital to the college, where
he had periods of seeming improve
ment, he himself hoping to regain
strength to make visit to Ireland;
but the end came rather suddenly.
Mgr. O'Riordan was one of the most
distinguished and best esteemed &C.
clesiastical figures in Rome. Pope
Benedict had special personal affec-
tion for him, and sent private cham
berlain to bring him the papal blessing
the evening before he died.
Mgr. Cerretti pontifcated at the fu-
neral Mass on Friday. He was as
sisted by the Irish Dominicans, Fran
ciscans, and Augustinians, American
students rendering the music. There
were present large attendance from
the Irish ecclesiastical communities;
bishops; prelates representing the
College of Apostolic Protonotaries, the
st. Mark Chapter, the. Consistorial
Congregation to which deceased be-
longed; Mgr. O'Hern of the American
College, and other rectors of national
colleges, and the representative of
the British Legation to the Holy See.
The remains were buried in the Irish
College vault at the cemetery in
Rome.

INTELLECTUAL ADVANCEMENT
AND CHARACTER LAUDED BY
NOTED oBSERVERS-ONLY MA
LAYS TO REACH SUCH HIGH
STANDARDS.

Maximo M. Kalaw, Secretary of the
Philippine Mission to the United
States, has prepared "A Guide Book
on the Philippine Question" which
has recently r5ue1 sent to the Ameri-
can press.
What interests us most in the pam
phlet, SAYS the Central Bureau Bull
letin, is the references to the Fill
piro character and the progress made,
under the influence Of the Catholic
missionaries. Mr.. Kalaw tells us,
that, under Spanish rule, "as early as
1866, out of CD a population OF 4,OOO,-
900 there were S41 schools for boys
and 833 for girls. In 1892, eight years
before the coming of the Americans,
there were 2,137 schools. There were
also, during the Spanish regime, COL
leges and universities where protes-
sional training was giVen;" he lists
these institutions, giving the year of
the founding of the University of San
TO Tomas, Manila, as 1911, making the
university twenty-five years older
than Harvard" Kalaw quotes from
the French explorer La Perouse (Who
visited Manila in 178O, the English
man Crawfurd, historian of the In
dian Archipelago" the German nat
uralist Jagor, the Austrian Blumentritt
and the American LIE Roy, to illustrate
the progress made by the Filipinos un-
der the Spanish regime. To the testi-
mony of these men he adds collec-
tion of comment by Americans on the
Philippine republic of 1898.

WORK PRoHlB-
TIED AND REGULAR PERFORM
ANcE OF DIVINE S ERVlC E
ABOARD AND AT SHORE STA
, TioNs INSURED FOR NAVY.

An order by Secretary Daniels to
the navy for more general observ-
ance of Sunday as religious rest day,
has recently been promulgated.
The new Navy Department general
order is as follows:
"In order to insure a proper OBJ
seryance of the Lords day in the
navy of the United States, and to pro-
vide the officers and men with rest
and recreation so essential to effi-
CHENEY the following order will be car
ried out:
Hereafter all commanding officers
ana others officially concerned will
see to it that aboard ships and on
shore stations to which, they are at
tached. no work of any character
whatsoever is performed except works
of necessity e6
This order will be construed as
embracing target practice and drills
of every character; inspection of ship
and crew, clothing inspection, issuing
of small stores, and all other ship ac-
tivities that violate the letter and
spirit of this order.

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

schools of the Archdiocese of st. Paul.
Time has not been given to address
a letter to all those who are in a posi-
tion to bring this to the attention of
our school children and our congre-
cations He therefore avails himself
of the good Offices of the Catholic Bull
letin to suggest to the pastors of the
archdiocese that some reference to
this new national holiday and to the
spirit which it is intended to COM
memorate and emphasize should be
made at the different Masses next
Sunday, September A. and that on
the day itself, Wednesday, the 18th,
some patriotic program should be OBJ
served in all Catholic schools. The
Constitution of the United States as
we'll as the constitutions of the differ
ent states of the Union contain the
philosophy of political freedom, and
as they are informed by the wisdom
of cool deliberation and represent the
enlightened thought and experience OF
capable men who love liberty, they have
been a safeguard and shelter against
the hysterical reactions to which our
people are so frequently subject. 1t is
a wise and a timely thing therefore
for all our people to reverence our
constitutions for the very reason that
they are fixed and not subject to whim,
to admire them because of the fine
Christian sense which usually per-
vades them, to do our part in main
tanning them, since the alternative is
nothing less nor more than the un-
stable, violent and wicked rule of
factitious majorities which under no
sense of responsibility to men make
it cult to display their Indifference
and opposition to the eternal laws of
God.

that deeply convinced Christian and
Catholic, the real Marshal of France,
who in the later days of the war led
the Allied Armies SO surely to COM
plete victory. l said to him how glad
we were to give thanks to Almighty
God for the great talents and the
great courage with which He had en-
dowed him. His answer was: 1t was
mot my work; from beginning to end
it was the Providence of Almighty
God That is his profound and loudly
proclaimed conviction"

ON DECK OF ITALIAN
SHIP.

A service, always interesting and
attractive, the celebration of Mass at
a military or naval post, brought be-
tween 5000 and 5000 persons to the
Army Base in South Boston on Aug
ust 81, when Cardinal O'Connell Off

|JOHN MITCHELL DEAD
GREAT LABOR LEADER ONLY
FORTY-NtNEs YEARS OF AGE
A CONVERT TO THE CHURCH.

John Mitchell, noted labor leader,
died in New York City last Tuesday
afternoon. Ten days before he had
undergone an operation and his con-
,dition had been reported, satisfactory.
His death came unexpectedly.
John Mitchell was born February 4,
1870, at Braidwood, Ill., His education
was received in primary and in night
schools. At the age of eleven years
he began work in the coal mines, and
from that time forward was identified
with all the problems concerning the
conditions of the working classes. He
took special courses in economic and
labor questions in order to perfect
himself in a knowledge of these con-
ditions. For ten years, from 1898 to
1908, he was president of the United
Mine Workers of America, and was
also vice-president of the American
Federation of Labor. He moreover
was prominently identified with vari-
Gus other great labor bodies through
out the country.
Mr.. Mitchell travelled extensively
throughout Great Britain and the Con-,
tinent to study industrial conditions.
He was largely instrumental in pro-
tecting the labor of women and chill
dren. He also wrote several works
on the ideals and purposes of organ
ized labor. .s..
In 1891 John Mitchell married Cath,
crime O'Rourke who, together with a.
daughter and three sons, survives him..
On December 20, 1907, Mr.. Mitchell
became a convert to the Catholic
and he has been a strong and
consistent representative of the faith
ever since.

CERTAIN cLERGYMEN MAKE DAR-
ING REQUEST OF RoME-PEo-
PIE AND MAJORITY OF CLERGY
STRONGLY ATTACHED TO THE
SEE OF PETER-MGR. BOUSKA
AND FATHER ZLAMAL.

In the name of the Bohemian Alli-
ance Mgr. Bouska of Tabor, South
Dakota, and Father Zlamal of Cleve-
land, Ohio, went to Bohemia some
time ago to help the people solve their
problems The most serious item was
that regarding the marriage of the
clergy. Last January Congress of
Clergy, representing small minority,
held in Prague, petitioned the Govern
ment and the Pope for the abolition
of clerical celibacy. But it may be
generally accepted that the Catholic
Czechs and Slovaks are disguised with
the political and other maneuvers of
those of their clergy who have plunged
themselves into politics of all sorts.
The clergy themselves are far from
being unanimous on this matter; in
deed, there seems to be sharp division
among them. The Salzburg .Catho-
lische Kirchenzeitung has some very
pointed things to say on the situation,
and it let's in good deal of light on,
the whole proceeding. This paper
comes to the point at once when it
says: .E.
"The Czecho-Slovak Catholics are
experiencing at present trying time
They have waited patiently through
a long and trying time for leaders
who should direct them with a clear
and definite policy. And now, with
grief and astonishment they behold
their priests divided by politics and
at variance; with democracy at stake
and serious division threatening the
Catholic Peoples Party. And now
with what mixed feelings have they
