THE KOSC|USKO LAUNCHED
Gel ALTON IN HONOR OF
FIRST POLISH STEAMSHIP AT
TENDED BY PRIESTS.

The steamship Kosciusko, first of a
line of passenger and freight boats to
ply between New York and DantZig,
was launched in Brooklyn on Novem-
Der s.
Gayly bedecked and wearing the ma,
tional colors of Poland, the ship was
first viewed by the crowds while
bands played the national anthems OF
this country and Poland. The Rev.
B. KwaitowsM of Jersey City, chris
tened the ship. The service was
conducted in the Polish language
He was assisted by Rev. j. Kruse of
Philadelphia, and Rev. Francis Villa
moviski of St. Hedwig's Church, Floral
Park.
At given signal the Polish flag
was raised and the huge ship glided
down the ways.
Among the interested witnesses
we're two great-grandchildren of Gen
eral Kosciusko, John Guilfoye, Port
Warden of New York, and Genera
Brink, a member of the Polish mis-
sion now in New York.

Sockalexis, the famous Indian
athlete, is dead at the age of
twenty-seven. He will long be re-
membered for his success in the
marathon races. In the heyday of
his prOWess, he was pronounced
by Mike Murphy, the trainer, as
the fastest long-distance runner
Of today" Many of those to
whom the name of this fleet de-
scendant of the earliest Ameri-
cans was a by-word, were not
aware that he was member of
the Catholic Church. He has been
pronounced a fervent Catholic
Such a record will avail him more
than all the accumulated titles
which the world could have given
him.

PERPETUAL CALENDAR
ITALIAN PRIEST CLAIMS TO HAVE
MADE VALUABLE DISCOVERY.

The Rev. francesca Scatigna of the
town of Locorotondo, in the province
of Bari, Italy, asserts he has discov-
cred the perpetual calendar which
baffled scientists for centuries. His
calendar consists of two discs, one su-
perimposed upon the other, by the
turning of which the correct day, week
and month may be obtained.
If his statement proves correct it
will disprove the prediction of the
great astronomer Herschel that per-
petual calendar never could be de-
vised

SCOTCHING THE REPTILE.

The disgraceful scenes enacted
in several parts Of the country
during the past few weeks are a
fearful indictment Of our govern
ment. Let reformers and other
cranks rave as they will: the fact
stands that the timidity Of our
governing powers has permitted
pernicious weeds to grow in our
midst until the people themselves
are forced to take the laW-the
law Of self defense-into their
own hands.
For some years revolutionaries
have enjoyed immunity in this
country. After an outrage of I'M
usual proportions on the part of
these miscreants, the secret serv-
ice men round up a few agitators,
send them off to Jail, and then in
the course Of time the felons are
freed on habeas corpus or other
proceedings. In the meantime
imported radicals of the most in
fernal type are allowed to roam
about at will, to organize their
dark societies, to speak openly
against all government, and to
incite to deeds that have dis
graced the country before the
world.
During the war the government
gave an example of what can be
done effectively to silence and to
squelch these foreign agitators
Now that peace has returned, the
reptiles are permitted to spread
their Shiny poison across the face
Of the whole country. They are
arrested, tried, found guilty-anC
then forgotten.
When an organization is
proved to be hostile to law anC
order, a jeopardy to the lives Of
our citizens, why do the powers
allow such societies to exist a.
all? Why start a furry in Cen
tralia or some other place where
violence and murder have terror
lied peaceful citizens, and ther
allow the fends to flourish else
where? The pusillanimous con
duct Of the government is respon
sible for such deeds: nor can any
moral blame attach to peaceful
inhabitants if they take up arms
in defence of their homes ano
their lives against the forces o
evil. Russia allowed these radi
calls to live, and Russia has pait
the penalty. America is actins

A parent who cannot govern

A GENTLEMAN OF THE OLD
SCHOOL.

1t is rare today that we meet
the gentleman Of the old school.
He has been superseded by the
man of business, of affairs. The
old school type Of gentleman was
a man of culture, broad under
standing, scholarly mind and re-
fined tastes. His present day
counterpart is taken up with
strictly material interests: bust
ness, sports, clubs, the current
happenings of ephemeral interest.
The gentleman Of the old
school had a solid foundation in
the study Of the classics. His
perceptions had been clarified by
familiarity with the best thought
and intellectual achievement OF
all ages. He was a connoisseur in
the field of art and literature,
and his views were never tenn
pered by a consideration of the
monetary value of a given mas
terpiece. He was not unac-
quainted with the life and work
Of the great artists of all coun-
tries; their trials and triumphs
were to him a source of perennial
interest. He possessed a spirit OF
comradeship with the great think
ers Of the ages, and he loved to
dwell upon the singular merits OF
his favorite author, sculptor or
painter.
This old-fashioned gentleman
could discourse intelligently, yea,
learnedly, on the intellectual viz
tues Of the worlds most re-
nowned minds. Frequently did
he quote the classics Of his own
and of alien tongues in order to
drive home a point or to embel-
lish a phrase. He lived above
the present, while at the same
time taking a keen interest in the
things that passed before his
gaze. But he dwelt chiefly in the
realm of thought and Of beauty.
He endeavored ever to select the
best and the most palatable
viands from the worlds mental
store placed before him: ever
seeking to improve his mind, to
enlarge his vision and to cultivate
a kinship with the brightest and
most elevated intellects Of the
race. His Latin and Greek were
we'll polished, while he reJoiced
in more than a passing acqualnt,
ance with the French, Italian
and German. Thus he was not is.
plated intellectually, but entered
into the goodly company OF the
elect Of all time. Hence was it 8
distinct pleasure to sit IN his
company, to converse with him
to exchange views, to argue
even, on questions that affect the
human family as a whole or III Its
individuals.
Today, however, the average
gentleman has but limited horl
zon. Even where he has enjoyed
superior educational advantages
) his outlook usually is confined t
the world of one tongue, his
views narrowed by single per
spective, his interests centered IL
) the quest for lucre, preferment OF
empty honors.' The average mar

paper, and from an occasional ex
cursus into a magazine OF more
or less doubtful value. The gen
tleman Of the old school is sadl,
missing in numbers, and we re
gret his passing.
