TERROR RULED

Hard-Boiled Philadel-

Storm Added to Tough
ness; Finally Beached,
Wheat Tossed Over.

New York, May 1O.-Captain John
Bergsten, two-fisted skipepr, warped
the shipping board steamer Eastern
Ocean alongside her pier with the pithy
remark that he had completed one of
the toughest voyages in his life.
Contributing to the tOughness was a
series of fights which rose to a full
fleged mutiny, requiring the assist
ance of United States DESTROYER at
Novorossisk before it could be auelled.
according to the captains story.
Also jotted down in the log was a
collision at sea with submerged OBJ
ject that nearly spelled the ship's
doom, and forced landing on the
shores of the Black sea, whence the
Eastern Ocean had gone with 100
tons of wheat seed for starving Rus
slams.
30 Bottles of Rum Left
BY way of finale, customs men
found 30 bottles of rum aboard the
ship and asked the captain some rather
pointed questions. They completely
exonerated him after be had told his
story.
This is the story:
The Eastern Ocean put out from
in January with crew
recruited along the Philadelphia water
front. This crew, the captain said.
turned out to be an fashioned hard
boiled outfit, such as seldom sails
the high seas nowadays.
Two days out the first fight started.
Cooks and stewards staged it in ring

overlooked it.

A NOBLE STRUCTURE.

Those who braved the weather
last Sunday were well repaid for
their courage by witnessing one
of the most historic events in the
record Of this archdiocese. The
solemn ceremony which took place
on the banks of Lake Johanna,
when His Grace Archbishop
Bowling dedicated the great pre-
paratory seminary to God, marks
new chapter in the annals of
the Church in this part of the
country. This one act raises the
archdiocese of st. Paul to the
level of those great Catholic cen
ters both here and abroad where
youths, destined for the sanctu-
airy, are segregated from contain.
ination with the world and placed
in an environment conducive TIC
piety and learning.
The fervent appeal of His grace
for continued cooperation, the
eloquent portrayal by Bishop Ne
Nicholas Of the high qualities OF
the priesthood, the immensely OF
the rising structure and the beau
| ty of the quiet spot, all made {
deep impression ON clergy anc
laity alike. 1t was apparent tC
all that God had blessed this do
cese with the inspiration that gave
origin to this proposed nursery O
knowledge and holiness. In ;
very few years, it is hoped, thu
archdiocese Of St. Paul will b.
enabled to raise up all the priests
needed in the manifold works o
charity, scholarship and pastora
care. Vacations are plentiful
and with this new seminary i
will be quite possible to cultivat
the tender plants before tn
thorns and briars Of life chok
their natural growth.
It is not too much to hope tina
the 43, 900 subscribers to the grea
Educational Fund will be arouse,
to the necessity Of completing tn
sacrifice they so joyfully under
took to furnish the means where
by the possibility of learned
jealous and devout priesthood i
this diocese for all time may be
come an actuality.

RETREATS FOR lAYMEN
JESUiTS PLAN CENTER NEAR ST.
LOUIS-WILL HAVE NO
FIXED RATES.

Ha
The latest large venture in laymen's
retreats is the so-called white house,
which the Jesuit Fathers are estab-
fishing on a high spur of the Ozarks,
several miles south of Jefferson Bar
racks, Mo. A Jesuit Father is super
intending a plan to give weekend
spiritual retreats here to men of the
city. A view of the river and the
sky, and country silence, win do much
for the tired business man." The place
is the old Christopher estate, situated
so high that the railroad below is lost
sight of in the vista toward the river.
In the same announcement it was
stated that a shortage OF funds need
not prevent any one from making the
weekend retreat. The method is, in
letters of invitations sent out, simply
to inclose blank envelope. At the
close of the visit the pilgrim puts in
the envelope just what he thinks he
can spare in return for the meals and
the ozone and the spiritual exercises.
He is not even required to add his
name to the donation No one knows
how much he has placed in the en-
velope and there is no discrimination
as to one giving more than another 1t
is all left to the guests conscience,
quite after the fashion of hostelries of
old-time mOnasteries.

THIS IS MY BODY.

Tomorrow the Catholics Of the
whole world, in the persons Of
their representatives, will assem-
BILE in Rome to give testimony to
our belief in the Real Presence OF
Jesus Christ in the Most Blessed
Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
With the Vicar of the living
Christ to lead them, they will fall
in profound alteration before the
God Of the Tabernacle. This is
the inestimable privilege Of faith,
to. know and to believe in Jesus
in the Tabernacle. 1t is the cen
ter Of the Catholic Church, far
surpassing all her other works.
What boots it that many do not
believe, that millions refuse as
sent. that human science often de-
MES and human pride derides. 1t
is not given to all to accept the
Christ, but only to those who Of
their own free will determine to
use the proffered grace.
The world laughs at this Chris
tian faith. Why? Because the
world hates what it fails to grasp
with it's tiny powers. Does that
change the nature Of the fact T?
Does the man on the street ignore
the deadly current Of electricity
because he: understands not it's ma
turc? Devils understand not, but
they believe and tremble: we fail
to understand, but we believe and
adore: the world cannot under
stand, and it mocks.
Christ said, "Arise and walk
and the lame obeyed. The world
understood not. He said, "Laza-
rus, come FORTH and Lazarus,
the decomposing corpse, came
forth strong and sound. Again,
the world failed to understand.
He said to the raging sea, "Be
calm, and the sea subsidized; and
again the world acknowledged
lack of understanding. He also
said: 'This is my body, this is
my blood Here the world
laughed after the manner of the
ignorant, confessing its confusion
in smirk.
Critics and skeptics have strug.
gled for centuries to overcome the
force of faith in the Holy Eucha
rist. Miracles have not daunted
them. When confronted with the
wonders of the Manhood, they
simply brushed aside everything
with the statement, superstition
But denial is the weakest form OF
| ignorance; it is the refuge of the
imbecile. Had Christ not mani
tested His omnipotent power IL
many other ways, the world NIGH
have had preteXt Of reason il
its refusal of assent: but Chris
| had built upon a solid founda
ton; He demonstrated His divini
| ty in various ways, and then sim
| ply added to the long list Of mira
cles the special act of love. TIL
logic and reason of twenty cen
turtles of unbelieyers are summe,
up in the one word: / refuse t
believe.

The Catholic Telegraph notes
the establishment in Cincinnati of
an Italian newspaper published
by a Protestant minister for the
purpose Of vilifying and misrep-
resenting the Catholic Church.
Our contemporary proves by Il
fragrant example that La Luce,
the paper in question, is either
very Ignorant or very mendacious.
Probably it is both; but how can
the damage it and other papers
OF the same caliber are doing
among the Italians and other races
be counteractede Only through
Catholic newspapers in the lam
guage spoken by these people,
says the Echo. This proves the
necessity of the so-called "for-
eien-language' press, SO long as
we have groups in our population
that cannot or will not read Eng
lish.
