SERIOUS DROP IN MONEY
IS BLOW TO BULGARIA
Leva Down 40 Per Cent in One
Week-Many Factors Cause
Financial Crisis.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
Copyright. 1871.
SOFIA. Bulgaria, July 2l.-The gov
ernment's position has been greatly
affected by the sudden depreciation of
the Bulgarian leva (normally equiva-
lent to q little less than 90 cents).
Within a week it went down nearly
40 per cent. Various reasons are
given. as. for example. the taking up
by Germany of foreign securities to
meet it's reparations payments. this

against the Greeks. the Serbo-Bul-
gariSn rapproachpent which 1T was
believed aimed at d sudden occupa-
tion of the Egean coast.
The government is also criticized
for it's hastily drawn laws. the over
taxing of capital and real estate, the
persecution of wealthy persons and
similar acts having a tendency to dis
turb money values. The government,
believing that the fall of the leva was
due to artificial causes, had many
spectators arrested. The country'S
economic status does not warrant any
such depreciation as that which has
taken place.

WILL SAIL 5000 MILES.
Los Angeles Man Plans Voyage t.
South Sea Islands.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, July 21.-
Harry Pidgeon, who single-handed
sailed thirty-four-foot yawl from
Los Angeles harbor to Honolulu and
back last summer. is preparing his
craft for a voyage to the South Sea
islands. 1000 miles southwest of here.
He plans to set sail for the Marquesas
within the next month or 20.
Pidgeon is an amateur mariner.
Without previous experience, he built
his boat himself. He got his plan
from the twenty-fve-foot yawl Sea-
bird. in which Thomas Fleming Day
made . trip across the Atlantic
twelve years ago, but made his own
boat nine feet longer.
When he had finished his ship
building last summer he obtained a
sextant and picked up a little navi-
cation. Then he set sail alone and
made Honolulu in twenty-slx days,
after a fairly rough trip. He also
sailed the boat home, but took q
shipmate along to give him 4 better
opportunity to sleep.
Pidgeon plans to take supplies and
water sufficient for two or three
months to carry him through the
doldrums in the south Pacific. A sea
anchor will furnish a valuable part
of his equipment for use in heavy
weather and when he sleeps.

THE LORDS LEDGER.

There is living in New Orleans, in
the down town section, below Canal
street, good old Irish woman who
keeps little wood and coal and prod
uce shop, says the New Orleans Morn
ing Star. She has four small grand.
children dependent upon her. Though
her yearly income is small, she keeps
two sets of books in her simple way,
one set for herself and one set which
she calls ''The Book of the Lord"
Every night, after she closes up her
little shop, she tolls laboriously over
these books, and, after ascertaining
the days profits, she enters one-tenth
of the amount upon the credit side
of the Ledger of the Lord" The 9th
er she places to her own credit in an
other book. Sometimes she has a
hard time balancing accounts, but if
she makes an error it is in favor. of
the Lord.
At the end of the year she draws
from the bank the amount to which
her Master is entitled If her earn
ings, and donates it to church pur-
poses. We wonder how many among
the good people OF New Orleans keep
a "Book of God" besides this little
old produce woman with four orphan
grandchildren dependent upon her?

style themselves in contTadistinction
to the Indians whom they supposed to
be without reason. Still, there was an
other law, that of charity; wherefore,
as long as the civil government neg
lected to provide military chaplains
for the presidios, the friars, as true
followers of the Saint of charity,
agreed to conduct divine services also
at the presidios on all Sundays and
holy days of obligation and otherwise
to look after the spiritual wants of
their countrymen. In discharging this
self-imposed duty, the missionaries
were wont to take turns. Even Father

RELICS OF SAINTS PUT IN HIDING.

Two remarkable stories of the hid
ing of relics of Saints for the sake of
safety have recently attracted consid-
cradle attention in England. One re-
lates an episode in connection with.
those of st. Cuthbert and the other an;
incident which forms an interesting
part of the history of the relics of St..
James of Compostella.
The relics of st. Cuthbert were kept
at Durham, England. There, accord
ing to the story, when, in 1912, the
tomb of the Saint was opened in a
search for treasure, the relics were
desecrated. The real body, however,
had already been removed, and an
other substituted for it by the monks
Then the true relics of the Saint
were hidden. The secret of their
resting place has been handed down
among the Benedictines of the Eng
lish congregation until the present
day. 1t is said that only three per-
sons were possessed of this knowledge
at any time. This tradition is allud-:
ed to by Sir Walter Scott in MAR
mion''
The story which is related of ST..
James of Compostella is similar one.
"The pirate Drake" as he was de-
scribed in Spanish accounts, is said to
have threatened to come to Compos-
tella, despoil the shrine of its treasure,
and scatter the relics Of the Apostle.
The guardians of this shrine, it is
related, had recourse to an expedient
similar to the one just related. The
relics were removed and hidden, and:
three+of the Canons were instructed to-
keep the tradition alive, as was the
case with the 5Benedictines at Durham.
Unfortunately, all three died almost
simultaneously, and the tradition was
lost.
No one knew exactly where the
Saint lay. The relics, however, were
discovered few years ago and re-
stored to the shrine.

can be easily understood, and which

can be easily understood, and which
touches the heart.
The two side affairs in our churches
are usually dedicated to the Virgin
Mary and. to st. Joseph, who, with
Jesus, to whom the main altar is ded-
icated, constitute the perfect family.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph were insepa-
rable during life; it is fitting that they
be associated in our churches. Only
Jesus may be adored, but Mary was
the perfect mother as we'll as the mod
ell virgin; Joseph was the, perfect fa-
ther and model husband. How i'm
portant, in these days of divorce, for
people to have such models before
their vision! The little sanctuary
lamp, always burning, which had its
counterpart in the Old Law, reminds
us of the Eucharistic presence of
Christ in the tabernacle: it burns in
the name of the parishioners even
when they are at their work and re-
pose in their beds at night Histor-
ically the Candles take us back to the
days of the catacombs where it was
necessary to have lights even during
day services; symboically, they rep
resent Christ, "the light of the world
the light which Christ bade us to let
shine, the flame of love which should
burn in our hearts for God.
