CATHOLICS IN AFRICA HAVE
So TRICK ELEPHANT.

Catholic missionaries in Africa are
training elephants in service quite as
remarkable as any shown at the ami
NAL shows, according to letters re-
ceived by the Sodality Of st. Peter
Claver in the Fullerton Building in st.
Louis. Ndiamba, as the particular pet
elephant of the Holy Ghost mission
aries in the HULA mission is called,
is said to do the work of thirty
men"
"Ndiamba," the missionary writes,
is now a civilized animal. The ne
groes of the neighborhood, and espe-
cially travellers from Europe, love to
visit him. He appreciates these Wis
it's, because he is always treated to
bread and sugar. He heaves deep
sigh of satisfaction, as does the ele-
plant in the Geological Garden in
Paris. He makes a profound bow,
gets down on his knees to say thank
you,' holds out his paw to allow any
one to climb up on his back
A story is told of Ndiamba being
the subject of a joke, after he had
been fed sweets by an ordinary off,
Ger in the service of the governor of
Angola. The officer threw a bucket
of water over the animals head in
jest. The elephant replied in kind,
filling his trunk with water and chas-
ing the officer for long distance, ur-
til at last he succeeded in giving a
,, good drenching to his tormentor.
In teaching Ndiamba he was first
instructed in drawing a cart, then a
pillow. But he did not like the pillow.
"The first time he was harnessed
to the plow,"- says the missionary,
"the noise behind him, as it furrowed
the ground, got on his nerves so ter
ribly that for five minutes his awful
bowling was heard for some distance
away. He stopped short, refused to
go any further and, turning around
he broke the pillow to pieces, which
he scattered to the four winds. But
now he plows the field better than
] the most docile oxen.
"He knows the days of the week
and never makes a mistake. On Sun
days at break of day he begins to
below impatiently for someone to I'm
fasten his chain. He knows it is a
day Of rest. Wearing big bell dang
ling from his huge neck, he goes prom
enading in the forest. As the ne
groes of the neighborhood all know
him, they do not modest him, so he
goes wherever he wishes. At night
fall he returns home by himself, to be
/ chained, and he is ready and cheer
full the next day to begin his work"
4 The elephant was purchased by the
missionaries when he was only three
or four months old. after his mother
had been killed by the Beers in an
elephant-hunting expedition. He was
brought up by hand on milk thickened
with flour. e; ~ II n Ass ~

thoughtfully considered the facts,
were manifested elsewhere. For once
Chicago seemed SO lose all pride In
it's reputation Before the world. No
body cared how much 1t was shamed
if the negroes could only be driven
out. At a ladies' sewing circle or tea
party or something Of the kind where
the sentiment was unanimous against
them, three or four of those present
were college bred. Some being ques-
toned about their savage animosity,
gave this luminous answer:
"'Well, how would you like to have
a family of niggers come and live next
door to your Or there was recourse
to that good old refuge OF the illogl-
cal mind, DO you want your daughter
to marry colored MANI
'"The one conspicuous exception TO
all this degrading reversion to the
standards of savagery was afforded by
the Roman Catholic Church. From
the beginning the Catholic Arch
bishop, with splendid courage, stood
forth to remind the community OF It's
Christian and civic duties. ON his
instructions the priests of his diocese
preached sermons denouncing the
riots and insisting upon the rights OF
the colored population, and the most
fervent protest to the governor came
from one of his subordinates, the elo'
uuent and dauntless Father Ed. KEEL

PAYS TRIBUTE TO THE CHURCH.

Charles Edward RUSSELL the we'll
Known writer on economic and indus
rial problems, pays glowing tribute
10 the Catholic Church in the current
issue of Reconstruction. Warning the
country against the danger of contin-
ing to maltreat the, negro race, Mr.
RUSSELL deprecates the apathy and IN
difference of the educated and refined
people of Chicago during the recent
race riots in that city. i"
He writes:
THE attitude of educated and we'll
o-do Chicago throughout the whole
flair was most extraordinary and
alarming. The city is the seat OF
great university and the center of con
siderable culture. The university and
It's intellectual environs never gave a
boot about the rioting and never lifted
a hand for justice. There are, sup
pose, 500 Protestant churches in and
about the city. l was assured that
not ten of the pastors of these
churches raised their voices in the
pulpits against what was going on
The attitude of large part OF the
population, even outside the property
owning class, was one of apparent
sympathy with the white murderers

likely to brighten any man thai

TREATING SLEEPING SICKNESS

VI
The scourge of sleeping sickness
still affiicts parts of Africa, but medi-
cal science is making headway and
hospital treatment is not in vain.
:. Father r. w. Dolan Of the Moenge
Mission in the Belgian Congo, says of
present conditions in his district:
Our hospital is still flourishing.
During 1913 we have. had four hun
dred and eighty inmates, and at the
present date there are one hundred
and twenty-five indoor patients, all
infected with sleeping sickness. The
past year we managed to examine
22,345 natives of our district, of whom
two hundred and seyenty-six had
sleeping sickness. How different
from 1919, when out Of 1000 natives
four hundred and sixty were found in
fected.

BISHOP BERLioZ ON PRESENT
CONDITIONS IN JAPAN.

This letter from the Bishop of Hako-
date throws considerable light on the
present state of Japan:
Living, here, has become very dear
and constant strikes do not make mat
tiers better. At the mission we have
been obliged to sell some of our land
in order to support the catechists. A
loaf of bread that once cost six cents
now costs eighteen cents-and such
bread!
But the religious situation is worse
than all. There is, in fact, an ever in
creasing lack Of all religious senti-
ment. Scientific Buddhism, having
discovered that the theory of evolu-
ton is adapted to its own method Of
thought, now swears by Darwin. Ma
terialists, who are legion in Japan,
sustain their arguments by examples
drawn from books entitled, Man is
evolved from the monkey The mon
key is an animal closely related to
man.
with such literature abroad, how
much needed are Catholic publica-
tions? They should come forth in an
avalanche like Niagara.
There are of course few rare
characters among the educated Japa-
nese, as, for instance, Captain Yama-
motto, but such are all too few. To
find good Catholics in numbers it is
necessary to go to Nagasaki, where

THE COFFIN IN THE CHINESE
HOME. ...

The respectful fear that a coffin in
spires in us is one of the many things
that has no place in the life of a
Chinaman, who has been formed to
think and act in a manner utterly diff
ferent from ours. 1t is the greatest
consolation for Chinese to have in
their home the coffin that will receive
their remains. The poor that cannot
defray the heavy expenses Of a flu
neral keep the dead body at home un-
til various members of the family die;
and they then make one grand inter-
ment. Chinese graves are always in
the mountains or hills; the higher the
better. And this is carried out so
consistently that practically the val
leys are. the only land given over to
cultivation; the mountains are sacred
places reserved for the spirits of the
ancestors.

ONE OF iNDiA's VALUABLE SIS.
TERHooDs.

~ Ejpnt y 49, {. ~ - .
A truly remarkable work is carried
on in India by the Catechist Mission
aries of Mary Immaculate. The aid or
women to women is specially valuable
in that country where male physicians
are allowed to advise only men. The
Sisters referred to conduct dispense
ries where they give treatment and
medicine free to those applying, and
they also travel through the country
visiting the wretched homes of the
pagans, caring for the sick and bap-
tizing the dying-especially infants.
Only real heroines could brave the
heat of the fierce Indian sun and the
countless dangers of the jun, &n or
der to minister. to the leaSSf His
little ones s
Although this Order was started but
a short time ago, it has already
opened several establishments in In
dia. In Kumbakonam (South sIndia)
besides their headquarters at Kumba-
konam, they have already taken
charge of three dispensaries at Tran,
quebar, Mayavaram and Ayampettai.
In each of these places two, Sisters
! conduct a dispensary, where they
give gratuitously medicines to the nu
merous patients who call daily at GER
tain hours. In times of epidemics, sc
frequent in India, their harvest OF
little angels is plentiful.
| When they attend old people till
their death, it is rarely that these per
sons resist the appeals of the kind
and self-sacrifcing nurses, who have
been so cheerfully and lovingly devot
ed to them for weeks and even months
altogether.

NEW RICH JAPANESE
 IDEAS EXTRAVAGANT

TOXIC, June 11.-They have their new-rich in Japan, too. And some of their stunts are no less amusing than those of westerners. A Jap who had made a fortune in shipping had a car buncle on his arm. He engaged three rooms in hotel and 16 nurses. When the carbuncle had been treated he had it bandaged in pure silk. Another Jap with money to burn, at a mountain re- sort with geisha, seized with fancy for roasted eel from Tokio purveyor, had them brought on motor car, roasted in a charcoal brazier during the 6O-mile run. His extravagant taste cost him an even $10O.
