Judgment of many, could neither sup
port nor "grace" the Episcopal
dignity, but when the news reached

new Bishop had fallen on Father Cor

THE RI. REV. TIMOTHY
CORBEIT, D. D., BISHOP
OF CROOKSTON

In the year of 1858 at Mendoza, the
Oldest town in Minnesota, near historic
Fort Smelling, Timothy Corbett, the
present Bishop of the diocese of
Crookston, was born. At IAN early
age he moved with his parents to Min
neapolis, where he attended the Cath
Ollie School of the Immaculate Con-
ception parish, of which Father CATER
wards Bishop James McGolrick Of
DULUTH was pastor. The young man
soon showed marked signs of "a voca-
ton to the priesthood and under the
direction of Father McGolrick he
studied Latin and Greek after school
hours, thus acquiring sufficient
knowledge to fit him to enter upon
Ia classical course. In the year 1856,
upon the recommendation of Father
McGolrick to Bishop Grace of st. Paul,
he was sent TO France and there en-
tered the college at Meximieux where
Archbishop ireland and Bishop O'Gor-
man had previously completed their
classical course. At the end of four
years OF profitable studies he returned
to America and commenced the study
of philosophy and theology at The.
Grand Seminary, Montreal, and final
ly fat Brighton Seminary, Boston,
where he was ordained priest in
1885 by the great Archbishop Will
|1iarns. Upon his return to Minneap-
oils after his ordination he was as
Esigned Assistant to his former pastor.
Father McGo1rick, where he 1abored

He was sent by Archbishop ireland to
Duluth to take care of the parish of

which position he continued, however,
TO hold until the arrival of Bishop Nc
Gclrick, who in the meantime had
been appointed first Bishop of the new
ny created diocese of Duluth. Bishop
McGolrick appointed him pastor of the
new Pro- Cathedral and later chancel-
1or of the diocese. He remained
pastor and chancellor to the day of his
appointment as first Bishop of the do
cese of Crookston. In Duluth, the
young priest'se arduous and trying
labors were to begin. Duluth, at this
time, had a population Of about 3d.

town possessing few of the modern
advantages, and the hardy pioneers

CHRISTMAS AND THE THREE
MASSES.

Christmas is season of JOY,
aroused in the hearts of the faith
ful by the mystery of the linear
nation. The lessons in the Mass
es of Christmas tide are taken
from the epistles of st. Paul, who
speaks so wonderfully of this mys-
terry. The feasts of the proto-
martyr. st. Stephen. of St. John,
the beloved disciple, and of the
Holy Innocents who shed their
blood for the Babe of Bethlehem,
form natural group round the
central feast.
The custom of three Masses OH
Christmas day seems to have orig
mated in Palestine. In the fourth
century, Mass was said at Beth
lehem at very early hour of the
day; a second Mass was celebrat-
ed little later at Jerusalem in
the greater church, and finally a
third was said about midday in
the Church of the Resurrection.
At Rome, the first Mass is said
at midnight before the relic of the
crib in st. Mary Major; the Sec
ond at dawn in the Church of st.
Anastasia; the third, in the day
time, again in the Church of st.
Mary Major.
Each of these Masses has its
own peculiar character. That Of
midnight celebrates particularly
the birth of Jesus according to
the flesh; the Mass of the dawn
commentaries the alteration of
the shepherds and the radiance OF
the Word, who is the true Light:

above all the dignity of the Son

The world has undergone a cata-

The social upheaval always reacts

the chief medium to inform the world
day by day, of the various winds and

lis a strange fact that frequently the
entire press of a city or locality may

the other way, the reason being that
good will and right reason are wanting

AS usual it was midnight before any

1t was only the next morning when
he opened the question with Cherry.

the porch steps, was reading Il letter
from Martin. Her father sat down be

gowns and, bathed In soft sunlight,
looked eighteen again. The air was
sweet and pungent and damp and
fresh, the sky high and blue, and
across the granite face of TamalpaIs

something was lacking. He felt sud
