:, BRUSSELS AND
 ITS PATRONESS

This is the day of the greatest of
 fetes of Brussels, when the inhabit- i ants of the Belgium capital will honor the memory of Ste. Gudula, who has been the patroness of Brus- se1s since the tenth century, and to whom they will offer thanks for their deliverance from the Teutons in the l cathedral which bears her name. , It was in the seventh century that 1 St. Gery, Bishop of Cambray, built q 1 chapel on one of the tiny islets of 1 the River Senne. His eloquence and 1 piety attracted large congregations, | and a village soon sprang up in the vicinity of the chapel That was the 1 beginning of Brussels, or Brusse1 to
 give it it's old Flemish name, although
 to the majority of its citizens 1t is
 now Bruxelles, the latter being
 French.
 Ste. Gudula, who was of noble l birth, spent her life in abstinence and l prayer, and in works of mercy, and 1 when she died on Jan. 8, TIP, her re-
 mains were buried near VilIevord In
 tho year 978 her relics were trans
 ported to Brussels, and ever since l then she has been worshipped as the | special patronness and protectoress
 of the city. The Cathedral of Ste.
 Gu0GIa, commenced in 1910, is ar
 ancient Gothic structure which is one
 of the chief architectural ornaments
 of the lower or old town. Brussels
 was not much damaged by the in- yasion of the Germans, and forum ately the cathedral escaped destruc-
 ton, and, in fact, suffered practically TO damage whatever.

Although a Slav, she has, from the day of her marriage to Victor Emanuel in 1896, been a true daughter of Italy, work ing always for the interests and wei. fare of her adopted land. There was no political reason why the heir to the Italian throne should have married this princess of a petty state and this fact gives color to the as- sertions so often made that this al- lance was real love match, a rare things among royalty.
