AMERICANS IN ROME
POPE GIVES MEDALS TO X. OF C.
SECRETARIES.

Matthew Picchi, of Hot Springs,
Ark, who recently returned from
Europe, was one of four K of C. Sec
retaries to receive from the hand of
Pope Benedict XIV the Papal Peace
Medal Mr.. Picchi and his three COM
panions, DR.. ]. Mcintosh OF Rockland
Mass; William Ryan, of Fulton, Ore,
and J. Ormond, of Connecticut, were
chosen by the Knights of Columbus to
establish headquarters for the K. of

OF Monsignor O'Hern, rector of the
American College in Rome, the secre-
taries were enabled to establish their
headquarters in the Hotel Minerva, in
the central part of the city, where a
section of the hotel was fitted out as
clubhouse for the American soldiers
and sailors in Rome.

PRIEST STILL LIVING
CHAPLAIN REPORTED DEAD BY
WAR DEPARTMENT SURVIVES.

Rev. Francis MCGEE, formerly chap
lain of the sanitarium and orphanage
st CressOn, Pa, who was reported
dead by the war department q month
ago, is living and recovering from
wounds received in battle, according
TO letter received from Father r. J.
Mullane, Of Boswell, Pa, who is in
France.
Father Mullane visited the wounded
chaplain fully a month after he had
been reported to have died OF disease
by the war department and found that
he was recovering nicely. kilograms
had been received at his home at Nam
ticoke that he had died Of pneumonia,
contracted while ministering to the
sick and wounded, but it is evident
that a mistake had been made in the
person. Father MCGEE was the first
priest Of the Altoona diocese to enlist
in the army.

Of RELIGIOUS
CARDINAL SCAPiNELLl SUCCEEDS
CARDINAL TONTi--NEW PRE-
Feet HAS HAD DIPLOMATIC
CAREER.

Cardinal Raphael Scapinelli Di Le-
guigno has been appointed by the
Pope, Project Of Religious, to succeed
the late Cardinal Tonti To the mem
bers Of all the religious orders in the
world, male and female, this parsonage
is of no small degree Of interest since
the Congregation OF which he is head
has jurisdiction over them in all dis
putes that may arise among them
selves or between them and the
bishops OF dioceses in which they
reside.
Cardinal Scapinelli was born in
1858 at Modena, Italy, and made part
Of his clerical studies in the diocesan
seminary, finishing in Rome, where he
took the degree Of Canon Law and
Theology. On deVoting himself to the
diplomatic service in the Vatican, he
worked in the secretariate OF State.
By Leo XIII he was made Canon of
S. Peters. Later on he became secre-
tary to the Sacred Congregation of EX-
traordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs, the
position now SO ably filed by Arch
bishop Cerretti, late Apostolic Dele
gate to Australia.
Cardinal Scapinelli was then sent to
the Court Of Vienna as Papal Nuncio,
a post which young prelates, though
it is a nunciature of the first class,
were never anxious to get because of
the fact that eighteen different nation
alities converged at Vienna in the
days of the Austrian Empire. The
post could scarcely be a bed Of roses
for the Nuncio!
At the Consistory of 1915, Benedict
XIV recalled Mgr Scapinelli to Rome
and made him Cardinal-Priest of the
title of S. Girolamo degli Schiavoni.

VENERABLE PRELA7E DEAD
MGR. TARCZZI WAS SECRETARY
OF LATIN LETTERS.

Americans who lived in Rome in the
Pontifcate of Leo XIII will lament
the loss of that truly sanity priest,
Monsignor Vincenzo Tarozzi, who be-
came in 1892 Secretary for Latin Let
ters to this great Pope. No sinecure,
indeed, was the post Of Latin Secre-
tary to Pope Leo, for this Pontiff had
decided to raise to the highest possible
standard the style to be employed in
his celebrated encyclicals. Hours
were not too much to pass in the
choice between two words or the pol
ishing of a phrase in Latin Hence
the polished diction and magnificent
style that characterize the various en-
cyclicals in the reign of "the Work
ingman's Friend"
In his old age Monsignor Tarozzi
resigned his position and may be said
to have passed the interval until his
death in the confessional

4 SPLENDID RECORD.
PHILADELPHIA GIVES VAST SUM
TO THE MISSIONS.

Surprising by almost twenty-seven
thousand dollars the former goal Of
100000, hope of fond ambition for
years in the hearts Of loyal workers,
cleric and lay, for the spread of the
Gospel in foreign climes, the Diocese
Of Philadelphia contributed in 1918 to
the Society for the Propagation of the
Faith the magnificent sum OF $124,-
669.43, according to the annual report
compiled by the local director, the
Rev. William J. Garrigan, D.. d.
In addition, the Irish Mission to
China collected in the city's churches
$13,201, and Maryknoll, the Catholic
Foreign Mission Society of America,
reports having obtained $10,772.31.
Altogether the total sum contributed
amounted to $149,649.73, showing the
splendid proportions which this great
work has attained from comparative
obscurity.

PRIEST-HAD VARIED CAREER.

Rev. David P. OLeary, csc, who
died on January II, at St. Francis
hospital, Evanston. ILL.,, had a varied
career. He studied for the priesthood
at Notre Dame, Ind, but circum-
stances compelled him to give up he
fore his studies we're completed. After
leaving Notre Dame he became a re-
porter on Chicago paper while at the
same time he managed his fathers
property. Under Cleveland's admins
tration he served two terms as post
master in Evanston. Leaving the
postof1ce he took up the study of law
and practiced in Chicago for a number
of years.
When his mother died, he resumed
the study Of theology and was or
dained about twelve years ago as a
member of the Congregation Of Holy
Cross. His health failing some three
years ago he got leave of absence and
came back.

A $4,000 BATON
WILL BE PRESENTED TO MAR
SHAL FOCH BY X. OF C.

Preparations are being made by the
Catholics of the United States to give
the highest honors possible to Mar
shall F'och, when he visits America
next spring. The fact that he is a
fervert Catholic, man who glories in
his religion and who puts it forward
in such way that it will make him
an outstanding figure in the religious
history Of the world, argues. the neces-
sity for this.
John H. Reddin, supreme master Of
the Fourth Degree, X. of c., says that
arrangements are being made to pre-
sent a marshaIs baton to Foch, at a
great mass meeting, to be held prob
ably in New York. It was determined
last summer to have this baton made,
and specifications have now been
drawn. 1t will cost at least $4,000 and
will be the costliest insignia belonging
to any military official Oh earth. Mar
shall FOch is expected in America with
President Poincare and Premier Gle
menceau Of France in April Or May.

CHURCH DESTROYED

Fire, resulting from defective fur
mace fue and damage by water used
to extinguish it have SO seriously i'm
paired st. James Church, ST. Louis,
erected twenty-five years ago, that it's
usefulness seems practically ended
and a new structure will have to be
erected.
The parish of st. James has a chap
ter unique in the annals of local
church history. 1t originally en-
braced, when it was founded by Rev.
John Sullivan, sixty years ago, the
territory between st. Malachy at
Ewing and Clarke avenues and the
western Clayton district. One after
another, sixteen st. Louis city and
county parishes have been organized
between these boundaries, each taking
it's clientele from the fold originally
shepherded by the pastor of st.
James.

new NUNC|OS
APPOINTEES TO BELGIUM AND
PORTUGAL VISIT ROME.

Mgr. Nicotra, newly appointed nun
clio to Belgium, has arrived in Rome
from Chilli, where he has been nuncio
for two years. simultaneously Mgr.
Locatelli, Archbishop of Thessalonca,
recently nuncio to Belgium, newly ap-
pointed to Portugal, is in Rome, and
has been received in audience by the
Holy Father. There is thus an oppor-
tunity for the old and new nuncio to
Belgium to consult. 1t is probable that
little time may e1apse before Mgr
Locateli goes on to Lisbon, in order
that the situation there may first set
tie itself with some degree of clear
ness.
1t is taken as quite certain that the
assassination Of President Paes was
the work of the Masonic agencies,
which brought about the original revo-
luton and would try by all means in
their power to prevent the country
settling into a condition Of God-fear-
ing order. The renewal of relations
with the Holy See was naturally in
their eyes the most sinful act any
Government could commit.

camou1aged No noise is made and
There is Absolutely no cigarette slnok-
ing.
We heard constantly the reports OF
our own cannonading and soon we
heard one coming over. In your visits
to Chicago you will recollect hearing
the noise of our elevated trains. A
shell coming over sounds like a single
car coming nicely along and when the
shell reaches its highest orbit and
begins to drop business of seeking
shelter) it sounds like the car taking
the curve at high speed. Then all Of
sudden-p!cp! 1t sounds like a
train of sixty cars, loaded with tin
cans, had fallen Off the structure.
There are three kinds Of shells, gas,
high explosive and shrapnel. l soon
learned to become a good QUICKER and
dodger as results show. The sizes Of
shells range from one inch to twelve
and, of course, the larger it is, the
more noise and damage.
We finally entered our positions and
were surprised at the calm. There
was a bright moon and everything
looked so peaceful Now and then q
machine gun would be busily popping
away and we learned when to duck.
With the British their style of war
fare was trenches with dugout for
sleeping purposes and protection.
Nothing transpired that night. In the
morning the birds were busily chirp-
ing and scrapping in front of US and
the scene all about was of peace eX-
cepting for barbed wire barbados q

First Baptism Of Fire.
The next night we got our first
taste Of the smoke Of battle. Our gun
fired in barrage on big hop-over
that was taking place on our right.
Gee, but there was some noise! Talk
about fireworks! Several shells hit
near us but never a direct hit was
registered
Our baptism Of fire lasted all night
and we had become veterans, and re-
ceived praise and communication from
our British comrades. We kept going
in and coming out Of the lines con-

From the words of Christ Himself
In Mark. xvi, 5, Christ said: Go ye
into the whole world, and preach the
gospel to every creature And in

Do Catholics believe in baptism For
the dead, as mentioned in Cor. XIV,
29?
Catholics co hot believe that the
sacrament OF baptism can re can con-
ferrod upon those who are physically
dead. The quotation referred TO above
saws: "OthcrWise what shall they do,
vino are baptizod for the dead, if the
dead rise rot again at all? Why are
they then baptized for them?" The
meaning CT this passage has been va
riouaIE explained. Some think that
reference is hero made 10 some ceTe-
mony then in use. Others explain It
is referring to prayers and Deniten-
tai acts, performed by the early
Christians for the souls OF the taltA-

can it mean the sacrament q baD-

Keep the Title Spotless

We see that the war department has sent out formal
letter of dsaprpova of army officers making use OF their
military honors and titles for the advancement Of CONNER
cia schemes and promotion of business interests.
There should be no need for such warning, and we
don't believe there will be any great laxlty OF con-
duct in this line by southern officers who so greatly
the memory and teachings of that greatest OF
all soldiers, Robert E. Lee.
At the close of the civil war; when the south was IN
ruin and Lee we'll other southerners had lost his
home and all ese when everywhere looking for
EMPLOYMENT to earn their daily bread, great insurance
company offered him fabulous salary to assume one OF
the chief offices of the company.
"But" said Lee 81 know nothing of insurance, and
could not fill the office much money"
''That is all right General you need not do anything
we only want the of your name"
IF my name is worth much returned Lee, i had
better keep it clean | decline the place" And ne
took place as instructor of southern youth at very
small salary which he kept until his DEATH adding aurels
to his spotless and record
We feel that we without any lack of appreciation
of his high character and his many fine qualities point to
the great mistake of General Grant who Lees friend
and adversary Having had all the honOrs of the army
and the presidency of his country Grant allowed himself
to become partner in business of which he knew moth
ing and which exploited his for the promotion OF
business which failed dsastrously, robbing many old
soldiers of their fortunes
To the officer and the private could commend the
example of in peace. Honor your uniform and your
country will find you out and honor you
