MUSICIAN JOINS CHURCH
DR.. ALMA POWELL CONVERTED
TO CATHOLIC FAITH.

DR.. Alma Webster Powell, Phi. D.,
Ii. b., A. NJ, Mus. B., prima donna,
sociologist, lecturer, suffragist and
traveller, whose home is in Brooklyn,
N. Y, has joined the Catholic Church
She was baptized at the Church Of st.
Francis Xavier of which the Very
Rev. Monsignor David J. Hickey is
Rector.
DR.. Powell received her instructions
in the faith from Rev. Joseph L. Will
liams, curate at st. Francis Xavier's,
who also administered the Sacrament
of Baptism to her. The noted must
clans conversion same about in a
strange manner, and was the result of
conversation she had with one of
her pupils, who was under instruction
in the religion by Father Williams.
DR.. Powell, it is said, was inclined to
ridicule some of the instructions her
pupil was receiving, and finally she
visited the priest to discuss the prob
lens with him. This was about a
year ago, and the outcome of that
conference was her final acceptance
of the Catholic faith herself.

CASE IS DECIDED
CATHOLIC LEGION LOSES IN SUIT
OVER INSURANCE RATES.

The Appellate division of the SUI
preme court of New York decided the
Catholic Benevolent Legion, which
has been organized 40 years, has no
power to increase the assessments
against one class of members in favor
of another, nor to reduce the amount
agreed upon as death benefits. The
decision affects thousands of mem
bers of the organization throughout
the state. The order has 324 local
councils in the country and hundreds
of thousands of members.
The question at issue was taken
into court by Mrs. Mary Kennedy, a
daughter of Michael Dooley, who be
came member in 1898, with $1,000
benefit. Before his death in 1917 the
organization decided that benefits to
be paid to members who Joined before
1904 were to be reduced to 1854 be-
cause of state insurance department
orders requiring the organization to
increase the reserve fund set aside
for the payment of benefits. Mrs.
Kennedy tested the case, and Justice
Page said the society could not re-
quire members who had joined before
1904 to contribute to fund for the
benefit of persons who became mem
bers subsequently.

ing years with many consultations.
The boys who have often returned to
pay their respects to the institution
that has been both home and school
to them, invariably asked first for
their quiet, patient, ever sympathetic
friend and teacher, Sister Demetria.
A touching incident occurred few
days before her death, which is typi-
cal of her whole life. When she was
already so feeble in her last illness
that the Sisters hesitated to admit
any visitors at all, a young business
man from the East, who had left the
orphanage and Sister Demetria's care
nearly thirty years ago, called to in
quire about her. She recognized him
instantly and, despite her weakness,
showed much interest in his success,
temporal as well as spiritual. 1t was
her helpful interest in her boys that
did SO much to make them manly
men. Her life of devotion to God
overlooked in the little deeds of
thoughtful helpfulness for His or
phaned children which made her dear
to them and will win many grateful
prayer for the repose Of her self-sac-
rificing soul.

CARDINAL MERCER
AMERICAS GIFT TO NOTED PRE-
LATE RARE ART WoRk-BEL-
CLAN PRIMATE TO BE VEL
COINED BY COMMITTEE OF ALL
RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.

AS means of showing American
respect for Cardinal MERCER, COM
mittee of men and women represent
ing almost every religious belief has
been formed to make a fitting gift to
the Cardinal upon the occasion of his
proposed visit to the United States
in the near future. The honorary
presidents of the committee are the
Duchess of Norfolk, Cardinal Gibbons,
Major General Leonard Wood. Dr.
Henry van Dyke, and Bishop Luther
B. Wilson. The regular offices are
held by Clarence H. Mackay, the Rev.
Ernest M. Stires, Major General Clar-
ence R. Edwards, the Rev. H. S.
Whitehead, and John Stuart White.
The announcement of the proposed
tribute to Cardinal MERCER by the
committee states that it has secured
an option upon the most suitable gift
which could be thought of for this
presentation, viz: A wonderful tap
estry, entitled, The First Commun-
ion,' executed by the artist, Miss Lucy
Burton, daughter of the late William
Shakespeare Burton, the last Of the
great preRaphaelite painters of Eng
land. 1t is a large altar panel, done
in silk on canvas, and represents the
| Savior, in garments of white, stand
ing before the Communion table, in
the act of administering the Sacra-
! ment to the Apostles ST. John and
St. Peter, clad in beautiful robes, who
are kneeling upon the pavement at
| His feet"
The committee plans to raise
enough funds to make it possible to
give the Cardinal a purse of from
$4,000 to 10000 francs in addition to
the tapestry, to be used in the restor
alton of the ruined University and
Cathedral of Louvain, or otherwise al
his discretion.

His Holiness, Pope Benedict, has
social and economic troubles which
have been threatening the life of the
country during the last few weeks
beginning with the riots incident to
the popular protest against excessive
prices charged on all commodities
and closing with the failure of the
workmen's attempt to bring about a
general strike
The Holy Father sent special in
structions to the Bishops of Italy, ad
monishing them to see that all the
efforts of the clergy be used to calm
excitement and prevent disorder. The
revolt of good sense on the part OF
workingmen against general strike
for political purposes has caused the
most sincere pleasure at the Vatican
AS long as the possibility of serious
disturbance to order remained, extra
precautions were taken to avoid
trouble at the Vatican. The Italian
government had thoroughly guarded
the palaces and gardens from the out
side, while the Swiss Guard, which
constitutes quite an effective as well
as an ornamental force, was in readi
ness on the inside.
Papal audiences to outsiders were
temporarily suspended for two days
during the threatened strike.
There will be a partial cessation OF
general audiences now, which will
continue to be in effect, as is custom.

bishop Dougherty of Philadelphia, and
his successors in Office, her magnifi-

United States.
Arrangements are being perfected
for bringing the Assumption Sisters
to Philadelphia as early as possible.
The commodious granite mansion is
peculiarly adapted for an educational
establishment. The ample grounds

CARDINAL ON INSURANCE
VENERABLE HEAD OF BALTl-
MORE DIOCESE SPEAKS
CLEARLY.

Cardinal Gibbons has added the
weight of his influence to the appeal
of other distinguished Americans urg-
ing soldiers, sailors and marines not
to forfeit the insurance the govern
ment inaugurated for their benefit.
In a message to the Bureau of War
Risk Insurance he says:
81 am of the opinion that our sol
diers, sailors and marines would make
a great mistake, if, through any fault
of their own, they should forfeit the
insurance, which our government in
augurated as war measure. The
provisions made for their benefit; the
very low rate, at which it is offered;
and the very liberal concessions to
change into such permanent forms as
they may desire, urge me to lend my
voice in persuading our boys to con-
tinue this form of government protec.

Of the first man perfect contrition.
and that of the second man imperfect
contrition. Everyone should strive
for perfect contrition which complete
ly deletes sin and its effects from the
soul; but not all are capable of reach
ing that height, for sin leaves mans
nature weakened, and with sacra-
mental confession. the motive of fear
will suffice for real sorrow. This mo-
tive does not exclude God; it neces-
sarily includes God, for it is God who
placed that punishment as a conse-
quence of sin.
