THE SILENT HORN
GERMAN STATESMAN SPOKE IN
PUBLIC ONLY ONCE IN a.
YEARS.

Herr Albert Horn, who sat in the
Reichstag for A years, and spoke
only once in Berlin during that time.
has just died in his 81st year. The
late deputy sat as Catholic repre-
sentative for Neissee.
Herr Horn had sat in the Reichstag
for twenty years before he could be
prevailed upon to find his voice, ant
after desperate efforts on the part O
the leaders Of his party. he was pre-
vailed upon to ask the government t.
give some answer to an Interpolation
put in by the Centre Party.
He intended to say: II propose
that the government should answer
the Interpolation" But what he die
say, being nervous and unaccustomet
to the sound of his own voice, was
Il propose that the government, shoult
interpellate the answer
But right or wrong, the effort wa
too much for him. He sat down in hi
place in the Reichstag, and for an
other twenty -four years not so mucl
as murmur was heard from him.

CATHOLIC LEAKAGE
MELcHITEs, MARoNiTEs MAY
LOSE THE FAITH-EASTERN
CHURCH MEMBERS SCATTERED
THROUGHOUT THE U. S. LACK
CHURCHES.

Families of the Melchite and Maron-
lite churches in this country, scat
tered in various sections, are in grave
danger of losing their faith because
there are no churches in which they
can attend services carried out in ac-
cordance with the Eastern Rite, says
the Rev. A. Sharkie, priest of that
rite, now in Washington. The Mel
chite and Maronite Churches together
with several other branches of the
Eastern Church have always retained
their allegiance to the Pope. Their
priests say Mass in either the Arabic
or Greek languages in accordance
with the character of the congrega-
lions. Father Sharkie says that, at
present, many of the members of his
church are attending services at the
churches of the various Protestant
denominations and some attend the
Greek Orthodox Church, the church
services of which externally resemble
their own. He says that if they could
have churches of their own they would
be glad to attend, and that sthey will
furnish the money necessary for the
construction.
The greatest need is, however,
priests of the rite to visit the scatter
ed settlements regularly. In some
cases where they are known to the
priests of the established parishes the
Melchites and Maronites are faithful
in church nracticas Rut thew arc
strange and slow in associating with
others. They must be sought out and
encouraged.
