ARCHBISHOP ON HOLY NAME

not wonder that those who cannot
understand the magnetism of our Sac
raments, should, in default of any
written or printed word to explain the
magnitude of our endeavors and the
strength of our devotion, fall back
upon the plausible conceit that in
deed the Catholic Church is a secret
society scarcely speaking above a
whisper except to the initiate
ut is never wise to prophecy, yet
one does not need to be prophet
or the son of prophet to forecast a
time. and that not far distant, when
we shall need all the resources of an
effective organization to safeguard our
faith from the attacks, perhaps even
of the state. Let me develop this
statement which might otherwise
seem preposterous
"The American Revolution, which
prepared the way for the federation
of the colonies into the United States,
was largely dominated by the thoughts
of Locke as developed in Rousseau's
Contrat Social. Of the trinity of mans
rights. so loudly proclaimed by the
French publicist, the English dis
ciple elected liberty above equality
and fraternity. Hence, when govern
ment was organized in the several
states and later under Congress it was
the liberty of the individual that was
set in the foreground. The citizen
must be free first and foremost and
| government was designed to concern
itself only with what the individual
could not do for himself The federal
| government, derived from that ingeni-
| GUS compromise called the Constitu.
ton, was left Intentionally so weak
that it needed the Supreme court to
confer upon it by elaborate teytual
criticism of the documents, the com.
| plete functions of authority. The ira.
| dltional common sense of a judiciary
which because it was English in
| thought was practical enough to dis
dain logic, thus saved the country
from an unwise experimentation OF
the French philosophers reveries
| The years that have elapsed since the
establishment of our country have I'm.
til recently been loyal to the ancient
fiction of mans liberty as the funda.
mental franchise of the American cit
izen. In this atmosphere of theoreti
| cal liberty the Church has fiourished
without let or hindrance, has gone as
| far as her means would let her with
her schools, has built up on all sides
works of charity and benevolence and
has with light heart-as if she had
never been dispossessed of her power.
| ty-put all that she could collect or
| borrow into brick or mortar, into Wis.
| ible assets, into the external embodi
ments of an institution which meant
to stay in the land and had no mis-
givings about the future. Now, l dc
not mean to say that what has been
done, has not been wisely done; that
it was possible or desirable to get
along on less; that our ingenious con.
| f1dence in the security of our national
institutions, as they are called, was
not an admirable quality of the Amer.
lean Catholic and clear evidence of
how much the Church feels at home in
a real democracy.

PRIESTS GHOST APPEARS TO HIS
BISHOP. -

At the close of the retreat of the
clergy of a diocese the priest who con-
Quoted the exercises told this story at
the end of conference on the neces-
sity of care in keeping account of Mass
intentions; though I am inclined to
think that it illustrates something else
that is better:
i have been giving retreats to the
clergy in the Southwest and South this
summer, and this is the fourth that I
have given already. In one of these
retreats, was talking to the priests
on this subject, for consider it one Of
the greatest Importance, and at the
evening recreation after supper, the
Bishop told me this story. He had
some time before received a dispatch
from one of the missions in his diocese
which told that the priest there had
just died. He was very much shock
ed, as he had seen him only few
days before, and he appeared to be in
the best of health He left at once
for the place, accompanied by his
secretary, and he arrived there early
in the afternoon.
The housekeeper told him that Fa-
Their r. had said Mass that morning as
usual, and after his thanksgiving start
ed over to the house to take break
fast, but was detained a little while

though they were firm in their re-
solution not to go back to their former
bed.
The Bishop, however, insisted on go
ing into the other room and got into
bed. But the talking and perhaps the
walking in his bare feet from one
room to the other had so thoroughly
aroused him that it was some time be-
fore he could again get to sleep.
He was just passing into sound
sleep when suddenly he was reused by
a feeling that there was some one
standing by his bed side He was ly-
ing on his side, and as he turned over
he saw Father r. standing by the bed.
He closed his eyes for moment and
still saw Father R. standing in the
same place. The Bishop said to him:
Father, tell me in the Name of God
why are you here, and what can do
for your"
The Bishop said afterwards that he
was not afraid as he knew that he
could not be mistaken as to the identi-
ty of Father R.: but he was very anx-
ious to know why Father r. had been
/ permitted by God to come.
Father r. said:
"This morning, Bishop, woman
came to me and asked me to say five
Masses for the repose of her husbands
soul. promised her that would do
so, and I placed the money in my
Breviary, intending to record the, in
tention after breakfast in writing; but
God called me. He has allowed me to
come to you and ask you to say these
Masses. The name is Patrick Moran.
Will you say the Masses?''
] The Bishop promised that he would.
and then he asked Father R. if there
was anything he could do for him; but
the Father disappeared, without say
ing another word.
The Bishop aroused his secretary,
who had heard nothing, and with him
| went down to the sitting room and
soon found Father RS Breviary.
Opening it they found IS bill folded
In it. The Bishop made memoran-
dunn of the intention and returned to
| bed.
| Before going up, stairs, however, he
satisfied the curiosity of his secretary,
/ who had no idea what took the Bishop
down stairs in the middle of the night
to look for some money in an Office
Book; he told him of Father RS ap-
partition. The young priest admitted
next morning that he never. closed his
| eyes for the rest of the night.
1t seems strange to me now that at
the close Of the retreat I did not ask
4 the Father for. particulars Of this
strange visitation. Did Father R. APP
! pear to the Bishop? How can you ac-
| count for finding the money if you
think it was only a dream

in the parlor by an old woman who
insisted on seeing him, though the
housekeeper had told her that the
priest must have his breakfast first.
After attending to the woman he came
into the dining room, and as he stood
at the table saying grace he. suddenly
began to sway little backward and
forward, and before she could reach
him he fell to the floor. She managed
to get him to sofa in the room; and
then she ran out to send some one for
the doctor, who only lived a square
way. The doctor responded at once,
and as soon as he came to the sofa
and examined the priest he told her
that it was too late as the Father was
dead. The Bishop after his arrival
called on the doctor, who told him that
he had told Father r. several times
that he must be very careful because
he had very weak heart, and warned
him that any extra eXertion might en-.
tail serious consequences.
The doctor added that he had not
seen Father R. professionally for some
time, but was not at all surprised
when he was called in, though he was
much shocked.
A little after O'Clock two priests
who had been classmates of Father r.
arrived and came to the house. They
all sat talking until after 10 when, as
the Bishop was about to retire, he ask.
ed what arrangements they were 60
ing to make about accommodation fol
the night. The young priest who came
with the Bishop said that there was
only one spare room in the house, but
that both rooms had double beds in
them, and thesBishop said they would
have to manage by doubling up"
The two late arrivals remained UP
| for quite while after the Bishop had
retired and they were little disap
pointed when they found that they
! were to occupy the bedroom Of Father
r. The body of the dead priest had
| been taken over to the church. The
| Bishop said that he was rather tired
| and soon fell into a sound sleep from
which he was awakened by noise al
| If some one was walking in his room
| He thought it might be his secretary
coming to go to bed, but he found the
young priest sleeping soundly by his
side, SO he asked if there was any one
| in the room and what was wanted
Immediately he heard the voice of one
| of the priests who had been in the
other room, and he called out and told
the Bishop that he and the other priest
| would spend the rest of the night sit
ting in chairs in the Bishops room.
The Bishop sat up at once and ask
ed what was the matter Then the
| priest told him that neither of then
cared, to stay in Father RS room an,
longer because only few moments
| before they had both seen him stand
ing by their bedside. The Bishop rous
ed his secretary at once, and said sar
castically that they were going to give
up their beds to a couple of boys who
had been seeing ghosts and were
afraid of their own shadows.
The two priests said nothing ex.
cept to declare that they did not want
to deprive the Bishop Of his bed,

their work and aroused his criticism.

SO easily established. We all know
that the spirit of the world today as
of old is not the spirit of Christ. We
Catholics at least are not deceived by

we fail to realize, however, is that now

that we can only exert beneficent
